I'm your host, James P. Madonna, I'm awaiting my panelists, my co-host, um, actually, hold this. It doesn't show because of the camera, but here's the new mascot. I mean, the new good luck charm for our no holds bar steel cage match, no nonsense format. It is a fossilized prehistoric um, tooth of a megalodon shark. The shark that's, that was much larger than a great white the size of a school bus. A prehistoric megalodon shark and it has the serrated edges on both sides you can feel it. So that's pretty much it. So how is everyone? It is April second. That's right. The month of April. I can't say anything about April showers because it's been raining excessively all winter. Even March, but it is a new month. Sunday, April 2nd, 2023. So I hope everyone had a good week and is having an equally pleasant weekend. All right. So the megalodon tooth.   So that's not good either, but we just put it there, put back the exact replica of the Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Western Ham, and I am just awaiting the panelists. Usually my primary co-hosts are the Commodore, Jeff Sammelo, and McFawn Raven are generally my main co-hosts. And then we have other individuals, other people that are very special guests. Let me see if this gentleman is available. I don't know. It might be. All right. Give it a shot. Let me put the link. Let me just tell you about Red Pill Man Cave. It is advice, banter, fun, serious discussions, everything that's important to men. But it can be a woman that has something to say. Doesn't matter. Everyone is welcome. Just no trolls are allowed. No one that has the intention on disrupting the show or sabotaging the show. You'll be instantly removed. And if you continue disrupting by way of commentary, you'll be blocked. I'm not going to argue. You'll just be eliminated and blocked. It's an old format.  My old friend, little Jimmy Pesto, named it that. And then I decided, since the Red Pill Man Cave, MIGTAO, Mango in their own way, Alpha Male videos started to get popular. I decided to change the name to Red Pill Man Cave. And it's a multi-topic show. It's very free-form. Nothing is written in stone. There's really, there's no theme except the general overall picture. There's no specific theme that we are set in stone, written in stone and rigid. So you can discuss anything that's important to you. You can bring it up. There's no censorship. So if you want to curse, you can curse. If you want to talk about sensitive topic, if you want to talk about adult matters or, you know, all adult matters, adult oriented conversation is allowed because I don't believe in censorship. I believe in the First Amendment of the Constitution. Okay. I'm not a libertarian. I'm very progressive. But the reality is that we do have a First Amendment. The Founding Fathers created these constitutional amendments for a very good reason. Like, for instance, separating church and state. Very important. Also, no, no religion should affect law because no one has been able to prove that their God exists. Okay. So they had good reason for that. And the First Amendment was the first one. So it had to be very important. Excuse me when I, while I drink my organic chai tea and peppermint, I know a lot of the people that I, I, I did for so long, for years, I did craft beer, hard liquor, and wine evaluation shows, review shows. Some of them are serious about it. And many of them just use the livestream exposure to, for closet alcoholics to hang out with other alcoholics. And they, they'll never admit they're an alcoholic. But you can tell. If they have to drink in public until their speech starts to slur and, or, and, or they get out of hand, their personality changes. They have a problem without it. It's not, it's not a hobby. It's a problem without it. And many of them use these live stream review shows as an excuse to hang out with others that excessively drink and they do it also, fellowship amongst luscious. But there are some, not many, but there are a few that, that seriously do extensive detailed research into the, into the wine, the liquor, the rum, the scotch whiskey, the bourbon, whatever, whatever. Tequila, they do a lot of research into the company and the ingredients and if there's any special process that's involved in making that particular hard liquor or liqueur or craft beer. And, and, and they're serious about it. And they do very intelligent, detailed review of that product. And they don't get intoxicated on live streams. They don't. Okay. Now, I don't know where everyone is, but they're, they are sure to show up because they usually do. But there is the link to anyone who's interested in joining me via webcams. Okay. If you're not, if you're not, if you're coming on for sincere reasons and you're not here to disrupt and, and or sabotage, you're more than welcome to join. Just click on that link. Then it will ask you what name you want to use. You want to use your real name? Fine. You want to use an alias? That's fine. You want to use an alias with an avatar? Because you can use an avatar instead of show, showing your real face. You know, unfortunately, some people have the perfect face for radio, you know, and they might be embarrassed to show their real mug, what they really look like, or they could be very shy. So, you know, come on, use an avatar.  As long as you have something important, something meaningful to contribute to the show. Now, believe it or not, it has been. Yeah, it's okay. It's still, it's still early. Yeah. Let me just make sure the important co-hosts have the link. Okay. Yeah, he's got the link. He's got the link. And he's got the link. And he's got the link. You know, they all got the link. Well, usually small talk involves discussing the weather. And the weather has been insane. It's been very erratic. I haven't seen a normal winter up here in the northeast in many years. The winters are getting milder. And this year, we had a combination of spring like days. That's right. Early spring like weather during the winter, along with sudden different temperature, freezing cold, but not consistently cold that we would get normal snowfall. All the precipitation, if it was a normal winter, with the normal expected steady consistent cold temperatures, we would have lots of snow. But instead we had lots of rain because we just haven't had that consistent freezing temperatures every day and night. Of course, the nighttime low is even colder, but we haven't had that. So to me, that is definite proof of climate change, backslash, global warming. So, you know, then there's storms, people having excessive amounts of tornadoes when they normally don't, certain states, tornadoes have been bad, like the hurricane season was bad. It was last year or two years ago. Anyway, we had F4 tornadoes in southern New Jersey. Not recently, I would say that it was last year or the year before. I think it was two years ago. F4 is second to the strongest tornado. F5 is the strongest tornado. And there was, I think, two or three of them touched down in southern New Jersey and homes were demolished. Homes were absolutely devastated. Now, whoever heard of the northeast, New Jersey, northeast in the United States, being having tornadoes like the Tornado Alley, or, you know, like Kansas and Oklahoma and that part of the country, which normally sees devastatingly powerful tornadoes. We never see it. We don't see it in the northeast, you know. It's like the Midwest getting an earthquake like that would normally happen on the San Andreas Falls in California. It's unheard of. What we have, we had F4 tornadoes. So, these climate change deniers have no evidence to back up their theory or conspiracy theory that climate change is false and nonsense. They don't have any evidence to back up their debate. They just blurred out their accusations and their opinion. No science, no evidence to back them up. And that's how usually, that's how the right wing is. I mean, the right wing that generally cannot come to a debate because they don't have any proof. They have no science and no proven facts to back up anything they say. Any of their ideology is unproven. And it's always been that way. Now, of course, everyone knows that Donald Trump was recently indicted. And that is very long overdue. Very long. Let's see what happens. I know justice, judicial system is a, it can be a very slow process. Now, I want to see the Biden administration revert back to the original tax rate on the rich, the original tax system before Ronald Reagan changed it in favor of the very rich. Okay. Before Reagan, the rich, from what I understand, they did pay their fair share of an income taxes. And justifiably so, even if they pay a high rate like they did during Eisenhower, guess what? They're still living very high on the hog. They're still experiencing a very high standard of living, the American dream and all that, that the middle class rarely sees. Okay. Because the middle class today, they're just working to pay their bills.  They really, they don't. So, hopefully Biden will live up to some of the promises that he made Bernie Sanders in exchange for Bernie Sanders providing his people to vote for Joe Biden and elect him instead of stay home. Because many progressives stay home, unfortunately, that's a bad idea because every progressive that stays home and doesn't vote, that is a vote for a Republican candidate. Everyone, every progressive that stays home. But I think the ones that do stay home are, they really don't want to settle for the lesser of two evils. You know, like the late Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead once said that the lesser of two evils is still evil and he couldn't be more correct. And progressives are usually very intelligent people and they probably come to the conclusion. What choices do I have? I'm going from the frying pan into the furnace and or back to the frying pan. And the reason why there's no choices is because the corrupt major two-party system has rigged it. So any other political parties, any other independent candidates or let's say a third party like the Green Party? Who is the other one? The reform party? Yeah, they make sure that other independent candidates that qualify to be on the ballot are not on the ballot. So only certain states will allow the Green Party to be on the ballot. I think Georgia has recently won that right. But it should be all 50 states. If you qualify to get on the ballot, you should be on the ballot. And the primary third party candidate also has a right to attend the presidential debates on television. Now, back in a day when the League of Women Voters ran the presidential debates or the gubernatorial debates or whatever, there was a third party candidate invited to the debates. Did you see any third party candidate when let's say when Joe Biden was campaigning with all those Democrats? Did you see, I mean, there might have been, I don't know if he ran, if he ran as a Democrat, the one man, the billionaire, the self-made billionaire supposedly. I don't know if he ran as an independent or if he ran as a Democrat, but generally only the two party candidates are allowed on the televised debates, which is not fair, because Americans deserve the right to not only hear and be heard, but they deserve the right to know who's out there.  And then there's, let's say, Democratic Socialists of America, that's an organization that nobody talks about on the media, but they have chapters in every state of the country, they're nationwide, and they're very active and very established. Let's put it that way. Okay, it could be a candidate from their organization running as an independent, but if you qualify to be on the ballot, you should be on the ballot. Now, for the life of me, I have no idea where everyone is. I'm going to put the link, I'm going to keep the link here for any, anyone that I don't know, personally, that wants to come on and talk about red pill, men going the wrong way, alpha male conversation, banter, or you want to talk about sports, you can do that, you want to talk about baseball, you want to talk about WrestleMania, the first WrestleMania, which was yesterday, last night, and tonight is the second WrestleMania, believe it or not. They have two nights for WrestleMania because they have so many matches. I couldn't believe the amount of people that showed up at the football stadium in Los Angeles, it was like this, it was like almost, it was way over 80,000 people, way over 80,000 people, almost, I'd say it was like almost, yeah, it was just a little over 80,000. Yeah, it's incredible, it was like a sold out filter capacity for the, I think it's six, I think it was six matches, tonight is seven matches. I just want to thank, I want to congratulate Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens for defeating the very long running, cheating, undisputed tag team champions at Uso Brothers, but you know, they cheated, just like Roman Reigns cheated in all of his title defenses with outside interference, but I want to congratulate them, Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, congratulations, also congratulations on the recreation of the Latino World Order by Rey Mysterio, okay, Rey Mysterio defeating his son Dominic Mysterio, the very horrible, disrespectful son Dominic, but Dominic, he got off easy because I thought Rey Mysterio was going to pummel him for everything he has done, that's what I thought, but it was, it seemed like a normal match, I don't know why he, Rey Mysterio did not punish him by pulverizing him, but I mean he did win the match, but I was a little disappointed because that's how much of a fever pitch it was, the animosity and anger and disdain that they had, that Dominic had for his father, and then by disrespecting his mother and sister, that's when Rey Mysterio lost it and finally punched Dominic in the face and knocking him on his ass, so that's why I thought it was going to be a more primitive wrestling match, you know, with more violence and less scientific pro-wrestling moves, but anyway, and Charlotte Flair lost her Smackdown title to her opponent, Rhea Ripley, Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair had a very active, action-packed and aggressive match, actually the people, the contenders in WrestleMania had to put on a good show because it's WrestleMania, so every show, there was no, there were no short matches, there were all 100% maximum effort matches, so she won, Farron Square, Rhea Ripley defeated Charlotte Flair, and Austin Theory, he beat John Cena, but he really didn't win, he beat him out of, he got a lucky break, he cheated big time, the referee was knocked down and John Cena put Austin Theory in the STF submission hold and got Austin Theory to tap out, obviously really tap out, but the referee was down, then right before the referee woke up from his stupor, yeah stupor, stupor, Austin Theory gave John Cena a low blow, a kick to the Rocky Mountain Oysters, the Cajones, the Cuyuns as they say in Italian, and then that enabled Austin Theory to use his finishing move and that was it, so yes he won technically, he beat John Cena, but John Cena actually won the match because I never seen anybody tap out as obviously as Austin Theory, the way Austin Theory did, so this is the first time that anyone has been this late, if any of them are ever going to show up, if these people do a no show, then what I'm going to have to do is just talk and see if any newcomers want to comment with me or be on the show, and oh, Paul Anthony Matthew, performing artist, he'll be on, he'll be on in 45 minutes, I don't know if I could talk that long, hope I don't run out of material, huh, let's see, anybody else, let me just send him a message, my friend Gabriel Solaya from the state of Arizona, that's weird, Jeff Sambello is usually the first one to come on, hmm, well, there is the link, maybe I can play some music on Mike Kizoo, Mike Metallic Kizoo, Little Herb Alpert and Natia Juana-Brass, the dating game song, excuse me, Commodore Jeff Sambello, the one and only, the one and only to Commodore Jeff Sambello, so where is everybody? Yeah, y'all, that's what I've been saying, I sent the links out, Mick Von Raven, Gabriel Solay, what's that?  Oh, Michael Hilton, yeah, he was supposed to be on the show today, Michael Hilton, maybe you sent him an invitation? Yeah, he says, oh, the best day for me is Saturday night, and then he doesn't show up Saturday night, so then I switched, I switched Saturday show to Thursday, and he says to me, oh, you're on, you're on Thursday now, he says Thursdays are iffy, he says Saturdays are primo, yeah, yeah, primo, that's why you and Ronnie Simpson don't show up on a Saturday, all of a sudden, yeah, so how could it be primo if you don't show up? But Thursday went well, Thursday went really well, I had Jason Cleveland on, you said Jason Cleveland was walking around with his video camera? Oh, that's when he went to Las Vegas, he took us on a tour to the hotel casino resort there. MGM, I think it was MGM Resort. And he asked me, what slot machine should I play at?   No, actually, we have general conference for two days all over the world, so you don't have to go to church this weekend, so it's live from Salt Lake City, Utah, from all over the world. Yeah, that's the main headquarters of the Mormons, yeah. Salt Lake City, that's their Vatican, Salt Lake City. Exactly, exactly, that's Zion, Z-I-O-N. Z-I-O-N, yeah, I heard, I heard there's, the Great Salt Lake is endangered of something, something negative is going on with the Great Salt Lake, I feel bad because it's a, it's like, it's like a, it's like a national park, it's, it's, it's very unique.  I had chicken suvlaki skewers, and then I had a side skewer of grilled shrimp and that had Galaxos homemade and then the chicken suvlaki had homemade tzatziki and hummus and basmati rice. Oh, I love basmati rice. Oh boy, I'm burping from it, it's very good. It's very aromatic, when you boil basmati rice, the whole, the whole apartment has a beautiful aroma to it.  Yeah, but that's not a pleasant smell, basmati is a pleasant smell. Oh, I know. Yeah, yeah, basmati. I've been buying the, in bulk, I've been buying the organic brown basmati rice and it's grown in California by the famous Lundberg family. They, they grow just organic rice, different kinds of rice. Yeah, so you had the suvlaki on skewers. I used to have, I used to have skewers for the barbecue that were actually like twist, they had a twist. Oh, the maintenance guys here, Jamie, the maintenance guys here, he's going to be putting some light bulbs in my boss's office and stuff, so. Oh, your boss's office? Oh, yeah, and one of my, one of my accounting staff, one of my officers. Yeah, what was I going to say about the Middle Eastern food?  That's for damn sure. Smells great. They like to use fresh parsley. Yes. Hello, this is Jeff. Yeah, come on in, Jamie, I see a truck out there. You're more than welcome, brother. Oh, okay, well, hopefully it's for a good reason. Hopefully you're going to get some nice lovans. All right, Jamie, you have a good day, sir. All right, brother, you come on in tomorrow. All right, sir. Brother from another mother, like no other. No, you're my, you're my brother. That's just, that's one of our copiness. He's supposed to come in. Now he's not coming in. Oh, he says he's been summoned home. So I said, I hope you're summoned home for a good reason for some lovans. Summoned home. If he's summoned home in the middle of the afternoon, a little afternoon delight. Yeah, skyrockets in flight. There you go. Sperm in a Zola and in flight. Upstream swimming upstream. Sperm. Now one sperm, I think it's called the sperm in a zoom. Sperm in a Zola or whatever. Sperm in a Zola is plural, I believe. And sperm in a zoom is one.   Yeah. Oh, Jason Cleveland just wrote something. Oh, that's good. It's all Jason. I said hi. Yeah. The Commodore says hi. He sends his greetings.  What's that going to say about me? Afternoon delight. Skyrockets in flight. Afternoon delight. Oh, afternoon delight. Oh, man. Let me get the lyrics. Exchanging glances. You know what that reminds me? Stranges in the night reminds me of when Rick Brown had the rendezvous with the Minnesota Fats. Oh, that's funny. Just buy me dinner. I am in there. White envelope. Yeah. White envelope. No ice cold water for you. See if I can get the lyrics. This should be funny. I'm singing that song. Come on. Damn, why find it? The route is right here. It should be fast. That fangu. Come on, ready. The lyrics to sky rock. The lyrics to sky rockets in flight. Hold on. Let me, Jason, say something. I hope you are having a blessed palm. That's right.  Beautiful. It was a long one. I was singing and everything. They were holding a big cross in the front. Gee whiz. That's awesome. And they went right into the church this morning. Yeah, I heard singing. Wonderful. I see a long, long mob of people with palms, with crosses, you know, palms. Yeah, today is Palm Sunday. Yes, hold on. Let me just say to Catholics all over the world. I wish you a happy and pleasant Palm Sunday. Today is Palm Sunday. And tomorrow is not tomorrow. Next week is Easter Sunday, starting with Good Friday. And which is supposed to be commemorating the last supper with the disciples, right? And then Saturday is the crucifixion. And Jesus entering the tomb. And then Sunday is the resurrection, right? Correct me if I'm wrong. Yes, that's what they're talking about. And the whole thing, the Lent. I know the Lent, I noticed the priests wear purple, like sashes or scarves. Something about the color purple. Yeah, they change the colors every few months, meaning something. Yes. I believe every color represents something. And purple, purple is the most popular color. The purple vestment. Yeah. Okay, here we go. All right, the piss pipe.  Remember Adnor, Ralph Crandon, when he was singing, he got drunk off the grape juice. All right, here we go. Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight, gonna grab some afternoon delight. My motto always been when it's right, it's right. Why wait until the middle of a cold, dark night, when everything's a little clearer in the light of day.  Oh, I'm sorry. And the thought of loving you is getting so exciting. Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, starting out this morning feeling so polite. I always thought a fish could not be caught who wouldn't bite, but you've got some bait awaiting, and I think it might try to nibble it, wait a minute, but you've got some bait awaiting, and I think you might try nibbling a little afternoon delight. Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, please be waiting for me, baby, when I come around, we could make a lot of loving for the sun goes down, use working up my appetite, looking forward to a little afternoon delight, rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite and the thought of loving you is getting so exciting. Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight, afternoon delight. That's it. I didn't know there was so many lyrics to that song. So what does that mean? He's going to go back up to Easter Sundays, he's going to go back to smoking? Smoking Joe Frazier. Yeah, he, you know, see the difference between afternoon delight, you see the thing, the difference between people like myself and Jason Cleveland and Jeff Comet or Jeff, is that we know what's toxic to the human body, we know what's bad for it, we don't do it. Right, we don't do it. These other people, all the facts are in their face all the time. They know it's bad. They know it's dangerous. You know, they know, like the person that goes skydiving or does rock climbing, they know it's a high risk.  It's not worth it. No, especially rock climbing for, well. Exactly. Skydiving you're accustomed to. I only did it because I was in the military, but I haven't done it since because there's no reason to do it. No, there's no reason.  So why would you do that? The purpose of my uncle, my grandfather's brother, one of my two uncle Franks was a paratrooper during World War Two and they dropped him. What did they do? Behind enemy lines, usually? Exactly. Yeah, he dropped, yeah, he left the plane in Italy when the Nazis. So he went to Bastone, Bastone, Italy. Yeah, yeah, the Nazis occupy Italy at the time. With the 82nd airborne. Yeah, he's got some stones on him. That's coverage. Yeah, WW2. Yeah.   That's a lot of stones. Yeah. Well, don't they don't they use don't they use special helicopters now to to to drop troops? Yeah, they do. But they still use the airplane mostly, because you can load everything on there. You're limited with the helicopter. That's more like for the Navy SEALs when they're going into certain places. Oh, yeah.  A cargo, a cargo airplane. Right. Only only because there's four rows. There's the rows on the outside of the plane and the other part of the plane. There's another row of 20. Yeah. Well, like, like you said, when the Navy SEALs have a specific mission to go on, that's different. That's different. Yeah. Delta 4 or something like that. Yeah, because you have a small group of elite men.  Like it's different.  Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, the SEALs. When are you going to go assassinate somebody?  Yeah, they got, they paint their face camouflage colors.  Black and green. Dark green. Black grease all over the face. And they do it at night and they wear black uniform. And they also have those goggles for night for night. Yep. Exactly. The best of the best. Yeah. And those guys, if they have to go into like into a swamp and wade and water. Yeah. After noon, I hate it when I lose my train of thought. Oh, I was going to make a joke about, you mentioned the shrimp that you had. Oh yeah. At least their shrimp is not stringy like the one Babu Bar. Babu Bar made for Jeremy Seinfeld on the episode. Oh yeah. Jerry said the shrimp is kind of stringy. And Babu says, come again. You bad man. Bad man. You tell me change restaurant to all Pakistani. Where are customers? Do you see customers? I don't see customers. And then Elaine didn't change the, didn't go get the mailbox, check the mailbox every day, Jerry's apartment. Yeah, his immigration papers, renewal. Yeah, the renewal. Now, I don't know if I showed you this. I might have. Jerry gave me this, the fossilized prehistoric megalodon tooth from a giant megalodon shark. You know, the shark that's the shark that's the size of the school bus. Holy cow. That's awesome. I see how big this tooth is. Wow. A fossilized a fossilized sharks tooth from a megalodon. Wow. And this is only one.  And this is exact replica of the Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Western neck from the movies. He gave me a whole bunch of good stuff. Like he gave me a bunch of like skulls carved out of like semi-precious stone, different sizes.  He always sends me like, like real conversation pieces, you know? Babu bot. Babu bot. Babu bot.  Yeah, three weeks. Rapidly. Well, almost a month. Yeah, almost a month from yesterday. But I think with all the farmer's walk training and the mace swinging, I think that your forearms and grip will definitely be prepared for power for a... I was going to say, I hope that Ken Thieson can make it to the vintage strength games on June 3rd, Saturday, June 3rd in Clayton, North Carolina. I don't understand how... He's very strong. I don't understand how someone like Ken Thieson would not even show an interest in attending the vintage strength games. Like when they were in Florida, he could easily or let Orlando, right? He's a strong son of a gun. Endurance, everything. He could very easily do... He could win every event. Yeah, right.  What do I say? But we got to respect him. We got to respect him. He's that friend. Yeah, I mean, he's right. He's too bad. He has volume up the volume of children's books based on the bluejay. Yeah. And he's doing well with that. You know, it's like... You can't argue with success, even though it's about a bluejay. I know. Up in the treetop, all the days long, rocking and bobbin' and singing his song. All the little birdies down J. Bird Street, rock and robin' and you tweet. Judy, you tweet. Rock and robin'. Oh, rock and robin'. Yeah, that was a good song. I like rock and robin'. Let me see if I can find the words in honor of Gracie the bluejay. I used to have these robin' red breasts back in Lodi at the house and you should see that they have this big pecs. They have a big chest. Wow. And after it ranged, you would see them pulling night crawlers out of the ground, like having a tug of war. Yeah. It looked like a cartoon. They're like, they're backing up and then the worm goes in and they go forward and they're backing up and they're trying to pull the night crawler out of the ground. See, because they know when it rains that the worms come to the surface. Yeah. And that's when they go hunting. Oh, the rock and robin'. The lyrics to rock and robin'. Oh, here we go. Here we go. Rock and robin'. Rock and robin'. Rock and robin'. Twiddly. Wait, twiddly D, twiddly D, d, d, d. Twiddly D, d, d, d. Twiddly D, d, d, d. Twiddly D, d, d, d. Twiddly D, d, d, d. Twiddle D, d, d, d. Twiddle Tweet. He rocks in the treetops all day long, a hop and then a pop and then and singing his song. All the little birdies on J Bird Street love to hear the Robin go tweet, tweet, tweet, rock and robin tweet, tweet, tweet, rock and robin tweet, twiddle it deep.   We're really gonna rock tonight, tweet, twiddle it, tweet. Tweet, tweet, tweet. A pretty little raven at the bird, the bird van stand.

He outbought the buzzard and the Oreo. He rocks in the treetop all day long, hoppin' and aboppin' his soul at the company store. All the little trees on Jaybird Street, love to hear the robin go, tweet, tweet, tweet, rock and robin, tweet, tweet, tweet, rock and robin, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, blow rock and robin. I don't know why the word blow is in there, blow. I thought it was blow, rock and robin, blow, rock and robin, cause we're really gonna rock tonight, tweet, tweet, tweet. So my soul to the company store. The company called, he bopped the buzzard, oh. He bopped the buzzard and the Oreo. Mr. Jason Cleveland, what are you doing this Sunday afternoon? Are you entertaining relatives? When, when, when Jason. I wanna see Michael Hilton. And when Jason's in-laws dropped by, they dropped by with their hands in their pocket. Or actually they dropped by with their alligator arms. Why didn't I say, that's too bad. Yeah, short arms and deep pockets. There you go, rock and robin, rock and robin, tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet, rock and robin. I like my kids all deep flowers. Well, CW, what does CW Field say about the Cranfus kids? Oh, he says, he says, do it in his accent. Somebody asked him, you know, if he'd be like children. Of course I like children. Oh, I like them deep fries. Especially those, those, those fat suckling pigs hanging into the frozen ice cream. Hanging into the ice cream cooler. Watch him, watch him. Man, everybody's missing in action except you, me. And then, you and me in a dog named Boo. A dog named Boo. Look at that song. Me and you in a dog named Boo. Yeah, I was a kid. In the 70s. And a dog named Boo. Boo-hoo. Boo-hoo-hoo. Michael.

Good morning, good morning, good morning. I am live now. Where's Masumi? Oh, Masumi. She should be stopping by. Yeah, my son's going to Japan next week. Yeah. Yeah, in a couple of weeks. Cause it's, they're 13 hours ahead of us in time. Yeah. And 13 hours ahead of me, 12 hours ahead of you. Oh, he's going? Japan. How long has he been stay there? I'm not sure. It's really nice to have a lot of events and carnivals. My soul to the company stole. She's, she's a lady. Oh, that's one of my favorite singers. Is that Teddy Pendergrass or somebody else? She's a lady. I was Tom Jones. She's a lady.  Talking about a little lady. And the lady's mine. I do, do, do, do, do, do. Yeah, where's Michael Hilton was here? He's funny. Yeah. I sent them, I sent them the lanes. Remember Lancelot lane secret chimp? Hmm. They used to come on right after, or before the monkeys. You know, Peter Tarr. Hey, hey, where the monkeys? Where you at the monkey? Here. Do, do, do, do, do. There she is. There she is. Commodore was just asking for you. Hello. Good morning, Masumi from Japan. It is now, I believe it is five. We're at 518 p.m. In the Tokyo area. 518, it's 418 now on Sunday, 418 p.m. Okay, it must be 518 p.m. there.  Thank you for stopping by. Yeah, there's a, in Hawaii there's a, for you it's a six hour time, time zone difference. For us it's a seven hour time zone difference. Oh, so Hawaii is six hours early, earlier than us. Yeah, from New York City, yeah. Right. And for me it's seven hours difference. Right, so from here to San Diego, let's say, it's a three hour, Pacific time is three hours for me. Yeah. And then another three hours is Hawaii, which is a lot of hours going back. I mean, you're only in the middle. Like, sort of in the middle of the Pacific. Yeah. Now, Masumi went to see a, she went with her daughter to see a very special entertainment event called Cirque du Soleil. And they're very good, Cirque du Soleil. Yeah, they're from Montreal. Oh, they're French, Canadian Cirque du Soleil? Or are they from France itself? No, they're based in, in Montreal, Quebec. Oh, but they go all over the world. Yes, they do. Yeah, they were, they were in Japan. Yeah, they travel all over the world. Just like, like the, the Chinese performer, Shen Yu, or Shen Wu? Shen Lim. Shen Yun, Shen Yun, they show all the Shaolin's Kung Fu and you know, there's a Shaolin performance and then the women do like dance with this very elaborate traditional like silk dresses on costumes or silk dresses. You're very welcome, Masumi, you're very welcome. Me and you and a dog named Blue. A dog named Poop.  So I ended up picking it up.   Trying to think of what else, let's see, yeah, I like getting back to Middle Eastern food.   The guy at Royal Hibachi used to put it out off in the Arabic rice, which was a seasoned rice, yellow with slivered almonds and lamb, like lamb meat, a lot of lamb, because I like lamb. Yeah. Sacrificial lamb, the company on store. Well, I haven't the far yes idea, we're a mitzvahon right now, so I really don't, I don't know, you know. Oh, he fried a cake, is it remember he said he had to go on date last week? He had to leave early? He has a date on Sunday? I thought he said, Saturday is his date night. I don't know. No, he said Saturday is his day. If he has a date, it's on Saturday. And then that's why he said, he's home, you know, he sleeps, he gets up. Yeah.  And has a bowel movement? Has a bowel movement, yeah. I've been having, I've been getting a lot of them, like you. It's very healthy. Yeah, well, it's cause I, my consumption of fiber. Fiber is very important. My colon, gastroenterologist says that the, the high fiber prevents the polyps from forming. Wow. And when the polyps don't form, you don't get colon cancer. Oh wow. But, but it used to be where, I got, but, but. A polyp, a polyp was benign. And they used to look at it as, you know, it's benign. You're, you're okay. No, not anymore. All the polyps have to be removed. Yeah. Because every polyp, even if it's benign, is can potentially become colon cancer eventually. Yeah. Yeah. So, so pre, they're all, they're all considered pre-cancer nowadays. So they remove them. They, no, they snag them somehow with a hoop or something. Yeah. Could be like a metallic hoop. I wonder for anybody ever. A hoop. Cumin. Yeah. You know what they do is this Asian guy next to me, during the colonoscopy, he was an older Asian man. You know, he had seven polyps. How? They found seven polyps. And that, that's like, that's bad.  That's bad. And I hope he was all right. I mean, I'll be in a colon cancer, but they, I wonder if anyone ever, if anyone asks that they can take their polyps home in a jar of like formaldehyde or as a souvenir. I wonder if they would do that. And then you can put it in like an acrylic pyramid or something. And you and a dog named Boone. Make a, put it in, in case it in acrylic and then make like a necklace out of it for your special someone. You know, now you can walk around where to put a part of me with you. The polyps out of my rectum.  Now you can be close to me, my dear. Close to you, close to me. Yeah. Kevin Carpenter had a beautiful voice.   Just like me, they long to be close to you. Oh, the trumpet.  Can we do it? The other one was a nice song. Top of the world, I was at the top of the world looking down on creation. The only explanation I can find. Is the one.  Yeah. No matter how, no matter how other people see them, they always see themselves as being fact, even though it's not reality. It's like a loosening. Well, eventually, I know when Paul comes on, there's gonna be a ton of passion and story telling and video, it's gonna be, everything's gonna come to life. But thank God you showed up because I would have just closed the show early. I can only talk by myself for so long. I know. Yeah, eventually I run out of material. I know. What are they gonna do? Watch me sip tea, for the whole thing. Hot tea, hot tea. Hot tea, the Chinese restaurant tea is actually Oolong tea. Oolong, no. Oolala, O-O-O-L-O-N-G. Oh! Which is a semi fermented tea, as opposed to green tea which is unfermented and black tea which is totally fermented.  Yeah. Because your hands never got never got cals. It was so comfortable because as you curl the sleeve would revolve where where the bars now have nerves and the nerves dig. I mean the gripping is good but they dig into your hands, you know, but then they had the fat bar. I remember they were selling fat barbell bar for people that wanted more forearm development development and the hammer, that was that quote. Well hammer curls are good for the brachioradialis. The extensors and the brachialis and brachioradialis muscles, the extensor as opposed to flexor. So that's why it's important. Well you you could hit that area by doing reverse curls with a barbell but but I think the hammers, I think the hammers with the dumbbells more effective. Hammer me silly. Hammer me silly. That's what Minnesota Fats told Rick. Hammer me silly. She said, oh big slick Rick. Hammer me silly. I am such a fan of yours, slick Rick. Yeah, I am such a groupie. This is awesome. Do you want to love about this because I had to come and take a deadline, a big deadline and I didn't really want to be here today but the fact that we're doing this boy it really it it it it doesn't make me feel lonely. Well oh you do have a deadline at work. Yeah. Yeah, because Rick Backerrack, what a loss. He lived a good life though. He was like 94 years old or 92. Rick Backerrack, when he passed away last couple months ago. He banged out so many songs that God done it. What a good life. He married some beautiful woman too. Yeah. He's married to Susan St. James to Angie Dickinson. Oh wow. Oh yeah, he's married to Angie Dickinson for quite a while. You ever see Angie Dickinson when she was like very young? She was very very attractive girl. Yeah, he's married to her way back when. And Angie Dickinson was married to another famous guy too. Yeah, it was her.  Hold on. I'll put her up on Wikipedia. Angie. Angie, Angie. Angie, Angie, Angie, Angie. Oh, she's only married to two people. Bert Backerrack and some other guy named Gene Dickinson.  She was, well, you know, Bert Backerrack. Barbara Eden. Oh, hot. Very hot. Now, the Batman series, there were three cat women, but I think Julie Neumar was the most popular. Yeah, it was Eartha Kitt and Lee Meriwether, who was a Miss America at one time. And she was, she played the secretary on Barnaby Jones with Buddy Epstein. Buddy Epstein. Yeah, this is like, actually, this is, this is odd. This is retro years. This is a special edition. Everybody, this is a special edition of the Red Pill Group. But we're digressing or regressing into the 1960s and early 70s. Yes. Yes. Bert Backerrack or all the guys in the T1 have been, I know James knows this. Oh, you like Guadalajara? And there's Zorbite Greek. Isle of something. Iponim, the girl from Iponim was born. Yeah, I love that song. That was a song I just played, the T1 brass song. Oh, there was another one. Hold on. Herb Alpert. They were at the end of the show, James. I remember they would have a guest Bachelorette or a guest Bachelorette. Yeah, Farrah Fawcett was on there one time in Alex Schwarzenegger. Arnold Schwarzenegger was on there. Yeah, it would occasionally have a celebrity. What was that shaving cream commercial that Farrah Fawcett, oh, Noxema? That was Noxema, Coxema. That had a little theme song to it too. And then she'd sing it, Farrah Fawcett. I don't know if I ever showed you it. In the 1960s, they had a commercial called a men's cologne called High Karate. Oh, I love that. And the girls were chasing them and he's going into the foam booth and you're like, yeah, yeah, what? High Karate after shaving cologne. Yeah, people, everybody, they used to sell like hotcakes around Christmas, Christmas Eve. I mean, before there was Broke by Faber J. Yeah, that's a good question. Where is everybody, Mike? I was I was talking for about maybe 20 minutes to a half hour. Yeah. And then Commodore came on and Paul Manty is coming on any minute now, I think. Cool. Yeah, he'll have a lot to show and say. All right, what's a theme song to the ABC movie of the week? I don't know the names of them, but if I heard them, I would recognize it. No, it goes. because it's it's it's it's with the strings and it goes I remember I remember the ABC was the wild world of sports with Howard Cosell. Oh yeah. Dandy Don, Dandy Don Meredith was his sidekick. I'm going to tell Mike, this is the exact replica of the Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Western pack. That's what this is. Thank you. Thank you for your kind words. I also showed everybody my brother was giving me a fossilized prehistoric Megalodon tooth from the giant Megalodon shark the size of a school bus. Yeah, Megalodon, I had it around my neck but it was too low so you couldn't really see it. Then if I were to lower my camera half of my head would have been missing. Oh yeah. Mr. Western Mike usually goes live. Late Sunday either late Sunday afternoon or early Sunday evening. If he's home he might even have daylight on his terrace is the the famous terrace location where he used to do many live streams. So I'm waiting now I guess Paul Anthony Mantian should be joining us hopefully and I have no idea where McFawn Raven is. There's a lot of people I have no idea.  They're commentary. I haven't seen them today too well. Sid, I haven't seen Sid, the male rights activist Sid, I haven't seen him. Yeah just I don't know. I mean I don't know. There's Mike. What up? Is that Mike Hilton? Yeah. Yeah! What's up? Michael! How are you? What's going on? Jeff was asking for you a couple of times. Yeah, I wanted James to invite you to the show. Nice. Good to see you. Good to see you. What's happening, chief? Not much man. Usually when we see you wearing some nice clothes because you're usually going on a date or something on Saturday nights or something. No, I'm just having a good time with my best friend and my family. Oh that's good. Good for you. Want to go team? I didn't shave today. Okay. What's happening, y'all? His hair looks good. He's got a little spiky look to it. Yeah, there you go. Yeah. He's got the west coast look. It's so easy to have a short buzz haircut because... There you go. I shined the light. You don't have to do much to it. Oh yeah. Nice hat. Nice hat, chief. Yeah, it's a new one. I'm trying to break it in. The fedora. I have the other one. I have the other western hat that is one of those crushables. You can actually fold it several times and it'll fit right into anything. Yeah. This is... We're having nice weather finally. Spring like weather. What's the high temperature in San Francisco, Mike? Just around something like 70 right now. Here it is, James. All the rain finally dissipated. Now we've got the sunny weather again. Do you have a duster coat? Do you wear a duster coat? No, I don't have one. I used to have a denim jacket, but it wore out. Oh yeah. Yeah, denim jacket. Burt Brackrack wrote this too. Oh yeah. Burt Brackrack wrote what?  Weird. Yeah, they're really... Burt Brackrack. Yeah, you know, he's... He wrote a lot of classic oldies because he himself was an oldie. I think he died at... He was 90. Healthy guy. Yeah, you see, when we hit 90, we're going to have like cyborg technology. We're going to be able to... If I get 90. We're going to have android body parts, artificial android parts with our humanoid... We won't get any dates then. Yeah, well, there wouldn't... You know what would be sad about a cyborg is like, you wouldn't necessarily... You wouldn't enjoy good food. Like if you need food, they'll plug you in. They'll just get a tube. They're going to tubia. Right, with some kind of special antifreeze or lubricant. Lubricant.   But then again, what you don't experience, you don't miss. We kind of already are robots. Yeah, because the robotics, the technology of the cyborg or the android robot, it's getting more advanced at a fast pace. By the way, what do you think about that robotic former president and the latest news? The indictment of Donald Trump?  Well, let's put it this way.  So what you have to do is you have to thoroughly, thoroughly investigate a person and you have to have facts. He said how if he... He suggested how if he murdered his neighbor that too many people would like him for him to be in trouble. Oh, you mean like a... Well, that's a usually narcissistic people blame everybody for their problems. It's always somebody else's fault. That's true. That's true. No, it's never their fault. They don't take any responsibility for their actions, but then they expect a bunch of attention. Yeah. Yeah. Good evening, Bart Robinson. Oh, you were shopping at all these? Good. Great deal on eggs. Why, the price is coming down on eggs? Well, it's about time. I've been boycotting eggs because I'm not going to pay five bucks for a dozen or more eggs. I can't go a day without eggs. A day without eggs will go crazy. I mean, I used to be in eggs to see when I would make my four egg omelet. Oh, yeah. Dave's killer bread with an egg is a... that just hits the spot. Even if you... like, I have my steam pot, right? I would make, like, poached eggs sometimes. Yeah. Three to four eggs, right? I put the extra virgin olive oil in the bowl. I swish it around. Wait, hold on. I can hear you. Keep going. Okay. I swish it around. I put the eggs. I crack the eggs into the bowl. Then I put the black pepper or hot sauce. I'll put hot sauce, some Himalayan pink salt, and... and then I would steam them. Four eggs takes about seven... seven minutes from the time the water boils. Take about seven to seven minutes, 30 seconds. Then I would... I thought eggs only take two minutes. Well, that's if you're doing like a couple of eggs. Yeah. Yeah, two minutes, three minute egg. Yeah, that's if you're doing a couple of eggs. One to two. I'm a big eater, so anyway, I would toast Dave's killer bread with 21 grain Dave's killer bread. Oh, yeah. Oh, by the way... Commodore, you like Dave's killer bread? What happened? Commodore. Break it up a little bit. No, no, he went mute. Oh. Homilist, the mute. What was I going to say about AIDS? Oh, I would toast the Dave's killer bread and, you know, dip the Dave's killer bread and the poached egg, you know, the yoke. I'm not yoking around about this either. I hear what you mean. If the yoke ain't running, then I ain't humming. Wait a minute. If the yoke ain't running, you ain't funnin'? If the yoke ain't... I always say, if the yoke ain't running, then I ain't humming. Six bucks for 30... 36 eggs? Okay. Extra large? Good lord. Okay, so that's not bad. 217 for a dozen extra... extra large eggs is not bad at all. Two... almost $2.20 for a dozen extra large. So that means... I gotta go sit up for my show, but I'll be right back. Okay. If I don't see you back, see you next time. Yeah, if I don't see you back, yeah. You should go on a terrace too. All right, you're the man. See y'all. Peace. All right, sometimes I cook three eggs in the microwave on medium-high. So it works out just fine. Yeah, timing is everything with the microwave. I usually just reheat coffee because I don't want to ruin food and I don't want to destroy nutrients that a microwave can do because it kind of cooks from the inside outward. So I'm very leery about that. So that's why I only reheat beverages. Yeah, my sister says the same thing. Dave's kill of bread is expensive. Six to seven bucks for a loaf. Yeah, but I wish there were more options because like the other brands there's like high fructose corn syrup in it and I just don't want to go that route. Actually, that's considered reasonable. You know, I didn't know they had the killer bread at all these. Good for you. You know what, you should try all these store brand of spam. It's called luncheon meat. It's from Denmark. There's no meat byproducts in it. No preservatives. All simple ingredients. No, no corn syrups. You know, it's like really almost perfect ingredients. Just check it out. Read the label. And also the all these just like Trader Joe's has the imported from Canada, the frozen hash brown potato patties also excellent and very low price. They're related. The people that own all these related to the Trader Joe people. Yeah, I used to get that. I used to get the black Angus beef Frankfurt's that were pretty decent quality at all these. I used to get the the bratwurst. You know, the raw bratwurst and have the frozen Cornish hens. They have very good prices on like chicken parts. And I used to get the liverwurst with all these brand liverwurst. They have a lot of German stuff. Stone ground Bavarian brown mustard and yeah. So I am awaiting Paul Anthony Manthia. Hopefully he comes on very soon. So that's that. The Commodore is focusing on focusing on something very important because he has a deadline to meet. Where's that Michael? Oh, he had he had to go do something and he says he might he might be coming back from the terrorists. If he doesn't come back in time the terrorists, he says terrorists. No, not terrorists, terrorists. Terrorists. He has a terrorist. It has to to his condo. He has a lovely terrorist. Terrorists. So Acme had really because I go to Acme. Wow. Their killer bread was 499. I hope it's still on sale when I go to Acme Tuesday because I need to what I usually do is if let's say Dave's killer bread is on sale, I'll get one for the freezer and one loa for the fridge. This way I'm going to let expensive bread like that go moldy. No way. No mold. I'm not taking any chances. Yeah, it's called it's it's in the similar shape can and it's called luncheon meat and it's it's all these version of spam but much healthier. You know, very versatile. Oh, your corned beef hash is very low price too. Yeah, I mean, super low price. Check out the if you like corned beef hash, check out the cans of that. I wish I wish there wasn't there's all the in my hometown but I wish there wasn't all these here.  So can't complain about that. There's also there's a liquor store there's a shopping center, it's a whole shopping center. There's a five below that just opened up where I picked up some really nice neoprene rubber handles for my power bands. Now now I got three I got three pairs of these neoprene rubber handles.  So I got I got those there's a target in the shopping center there's a whole bunch of stores I don't know these people these people that that will only send me messages privately only they'll never come on the show. That's weird.     Yeah right.


Hello everybody, Andrea Mayeski here with Dental L. So I have been practicing in the dental profession for about 14 years now. I was a dental receptionist, a dental assistant, a dental hygienist, a restorative hygienist, and now I do own my own practice as a dental hygiene mobile. So I do go to everybody's homes, offices, nursing homes, and I clean their teeth. So what are some pros and cons of being a dental hygienist? And this is coming from somebody who has had some amazing times in the dental profession, but also some horrible times too. So let's talk about the cons first, because everybody always likes to hear the bad before they hear the good. So the bad is, is that it's not your typical nine to five type of occupation. If you start at nine o'clock, well, you should be there for 8.30 to set up your room, look through charts, and just kind of know what's happening throughout the day. If you're done at five o'clock, well, that will not be the case because patients will probably be late. And you always have to clean everything up, set everything up for the next day, probably help your other team members. So you are never done when you think you are. If your shift is nine to five, you will not be done at five o'clock. But that's another thing. Shifts are not typically nine to five. You will likely have to work at least one evening per week, depending on when the office is open. So it could be till six o'clock, seven o'clock, eight o'clock, or nine o'clock. When I first became a dental hygienist, I would take any shifts that I was able to get because I wanted as much experience as possible, and I was so excited. But I worked about two or three evenings a week. Some of those days were like 6 p.m. until 9 p.m. So who wants to work only three hours? Plus I was probably home 9.30, 10 o'clock by the time I was done, right? So you don't always get the full eight hours. You do not always get a full lunch. Again, because the patients are behind, you can't just stop in the middle of a patient to take your lunch. And then if you're seeing another patient after lunch, well, you just might not get that full lunch, right? So those, I would say, are definite negatives about the profession. Insurance, you do not typically get insurance these days. If you work full time and you're lucky to get insurance, that is so nice. Like dental, health, chiropractor, all of that, it is so nice to have. But I find lately being in the dental profession, that's just not something you're typically offered. In this profession, I find you are expected to do more and more and more and you're not necessarily paid more. So unfortunately, us as dental assistants, even dental hygienists, we have to do so much, but we don't always get a raise and we don't often get bonuses. We don't get acknowledgement of a job well done, if that makes sense. We are just expected to do awesome. We are expected to do amazing, but we don't typically get a thank you for that. It does depend, of course, on the office where you are. Hopefully you will work for an amazing office. But that's another con, is that there are so many offices out there these days that are not amazing. Dental offices are opening up left, right and center, meaning just random dentists everywhere with no experience. They want to pay off their student loans. They want to make the money quick, quick, quick, quick. So you might get hired on, you'll have to do patients in like half an hour, you'll have to clean teeth in half an hour, 40 minutes, hurry, hurry, hurry, you know, that type of thing. So that can be a difficult situation too. In the ideal world, you are cleaning teeth for one hour appointments. That is the way to go. Hopefully you have all of the instruments that you need, everything you need. But that's another con, that's not always the case. Depends on the office where you work. A lot of offices will not buy the best of the best instruments. So you might have two or three instruments to work with with no time to ever sharpen those instruments, especially if you're the only hygienist in the office, when are you going to sharpen those instruments? Likely you will have to do it on your own time because they don't want to pay you a lot of money to sharpen your instruments. That's something else that I have found as well. As a dental hygienist, you do make good money, but offices will try to pay you a lot less. Offices will try to say that if a patient doesn't show or a patient cancels, you will be paid less. Don't let them do that to you. That's another con for sure. Another one is this profession is hard on your neck, back, shoulders, the whole works. It is hard on your body, especially if you work full time. I haven't worked full time for a long time. I do tutor primarily full time. So that's what I do full time, but that's obviously a lot less harsh on my body than it is doing dental hygiene full time. So if you do do dental hygiene, even dental assisting full time, it's a lot of work. It's hard on your body. So something to keep in mind as well. I'd say that's probably the most negative thing to say about the profession is that it is very hard on your body. And every hygienist, every hygienist who has been practicing for 20, 30 years, they all say the same thing. That is the one big thing that they say is do not become a dental hygienist because it's very hard on your body. I've been practicing for 14 years. So maybe that's why I don't feel the negative effects, but I have not always been full time either. So that's something else to consider. What else? Another thing, kind of a side note, being a dental hygienist can be tricky because other staff members for whatever reason don't tend to like that.  They don't like to do a lot of that. And that's not me speaking from experience, but that's actually what other hygienists have told me when I just kind of said to them, oh, hey, what are some pros and cons that you would say about the profession? And that was one of them, but they often get treated in a negative way because everybody thinks that they should just do everything themselves, that they never need help. So I think that that's a con as well. Some pros about the profession, so let's change things up a little bit here, is it's an amazing profession. If you want to clean teeth, if you want to work on your own per se, like yes, you do still have to work under a dentist if you're in a dental office, but you're not working with them, right? Like you do your own thing, you talk to the patients how you want to talk to them, and then you call the dentist in for a check. There you go, done and done. So that is awesome, I love that. That was the big reason why when I was a dental assistant, I became a dental hygienist after that because I wanted to work independently. I wanted to work on my own. And another exciting thing of course is since 2007 I believe, we have been able to start our own practice. So that is awesome. Depending on the type of practice, of course, but a dental hygienist, at least in Ontario, is allowed to start her own practice. I do not have a physical location, but I go to nursing homes, I go to people's homes, offices, and I clean teeth, I love it. It's the most amazing thing ever. Other pros are if you need to take time off, you're able to do that.  You will want to have children, things like that. A lot of hygienists have said to me, this profession is so easy, and so understanding that if you want to take time off, that's okay. Another nice thing is, is that if you want to work six to nine, three days a week, that is probably possible. If you want to work one to nine, if you want to work one to five, if you want to work nine to two, this is all possible. It's just a matter of finding another hygienist who wants to work the other hours also. So that's kind of a neat thing too. You don't always have to work nine to five. You can sort of change it up if you have to be at home in the morning to take your kids to school, where you can always start later, as long as there's another hygienist, obviously to do the other hours for you. Some more pros are, I don't know, like I just love being a dental hygienist. So it's funny, it's a lot easier to think of the bad things, but having that said, I talk about hygiene all the time, I love it. I tell everybody who's even thinking about it, this is an amazing profession. You should do it, because it is, you can work for yourself, you can help people. They like having their teeth cleaned usually.  No, they're coming to you to get their teeth cleaned. So they usually like that. So that's kind of nice too, right? And I find as a dental hygienist, you don't do it because you wanna make a ton of money. You do it because you love being with people, you love being with patients, you wanna help out, but you do also make a good income doing it too. You're not going to make minimum wage being a dental hygienist, right? You do make a good income. The more you work, the more you get paid. So that's a nice thing too. Yeah, I'm probably forgetting something you guys. So please make sure to comment below, let me know what you guys think because I probably missed something and I will see you guys in the next video. I do hope that this helped.


Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE. Covering Dell Technologies World 2019. Brought to you by Dell Technologies and its ecosystem partners. Welcome back to Dell Technologies World. Lisa Martin with Rebecca Knight for the first time hosting together. And I have to say, this is probably one of my favorite times of Dell Technologies World because we have dogs on theCUBE. Joining us from Michael Angel Paz, we've got Alicia Hallibrand, she's back. She's a CUBE veteran. Yes, I was here last year. I was really excited.  And holding Gracie is Denise Michaels-Cock's Global Experiential Marketing from Dell Technologies. Denise, thank you for joining us as well. Certainly, thanks for having us. There's a lot of female power on theCUBE right now. There it is, awesome. Look at Odie, he's just letting us have our moment. A little alpha male, just hanging out with us. Alicia, it's so great to have you back on theCUBE. Yes, really fun. We have enjoyed being, having our set next to Michael's Angel Paz again this year. It's so great to hear barking when you're talking about technology. I think I'm at home. So true. Talk to us a little bit about Michael's Angel Paz, your experience as a volunteer at Odie and Gracie, too. Well, first of all, Michael Angel Paz is, was a, it's a non-profit established in Las Vegas. And they have three main programs. They have a community dog program, which really strengthens the bonds between people and their animals. And they have a therapy dog program, which is what these lovelies are part of. And we just love to bring joy and delight everywhere we go. And then they also have service dog training, which allows people with autism or with if they have mobility issues or any kind of medical alert. So that's the main process of what Michael Angel Paz does. We are volunteers with them. We have loved being volunteers with them. Odie is blind and we managed to get him through the therapy dog program. And we love to come to conferences and just really help people feel better. And Gracie, of course, is just a little beauty, so yeah. So Denise, tell me a little bit about why Dell has partnered with this, with this organization, which is a great organization. And why might people need to feel better when they're at a tech conference and maybe related to this morning's keynote address with the anxiety sometimes that technology insights. We do like to say we think of everything for Dell Technologies World. So what is one more thing? How to surprise and delight our customers and attendees here. And also it's really important for us as Dell Technologies to give back to the community. And so it's a great opportunity to give back to a great organization like Michael's Angels Paz and surprise and delight our guests with the therapy dogs to pet.  A lot of people miss their dogs.  Everyone who walks in walks in smiling and walks out smiling bigger. So it's a great place to work here too. Yeah, we were hearing last year that Michael Angel Paz exhibit, exhibit was one of the most popular places for 14, 15,000 people to congregate. Are you, did you experience the same thing this year? Yes, definitely, definitely. It's been really, it's been really busy.  It's so great, it's so great to see people relax and be able to kind of sit down and take a breath, which I think is really hard in a conference like this. It is, and it's also, as Denise said you mentioned, it's nice to recognize that they're all people. They all have families, a lot of them. Whether they're pet owners or not, it's just a nice way to just sort of get back to reality. Maybe come down from the cloud. Right. And actually have a little bit of something that just brings, just a smile to your heart. Yes. Bring some joy even without technology. So we know the humans love it, but here are the pups, how are they doing? Because as you said, they usually are going to hospitals, they're usually going to old age homes. Right, right. And men, how are they handling this? They handle it amazingly. They love to come, you know, the energy is very, very different. So they can be a little bit more rambunctious. They can move a little bit more because they're not working with somebody that is in hospice or, you know, has an illness. So it's people who are exactly feeling sad that they don't have their animals with them and they get to get cuddled and squeezed and they love it. So it's a wonderful experience for them. They love to do it. She kind of looks a little sleepy, but that's kind of her way of being. Like she just melts into your arms. Yeah, she just loves it. What is some of the reactions, Alisha, that you've experienced out in the field, like for example, in a hospital or a hospice organization or environment that you see patients. Oh yeah, they light up. They light up.  They're woken up in the middle of the night to do whatever needs to be done. And people are kind of like talking about them but not actually to them and that animals don't differentiate. They're just like, we want to sit with you and that's what we're going to do. We're just going to sit with you. And so it gives them a moment to just relax again and not have to think about when's the next blood draw, when's the next thing that's going to happen. So it's a really wonderful, relaxing experience for them. And the joy that it brings. And I think there's a lot of healing in that that when you feel good, you feel good. You have the ability to heal better. And so I think therapy dogs are so important in a hospital environment. And this is a two-step sort of certification program.  Or can they go into a hospital as a therapy dog? You go in as a therapy dog. Yes, so that's the work that these guys do. Service dogs are more about if you have something, an illness or that you have some mobility issues that you need balance or you need, if you have PTSD, that you need to have a dog with you all the time just to kind of keep you together. Which I think everybody understands that it feels good to have an animal with you. So these guys are therapy dogs, which is not the service dogs. Got it, yeah. Denise, this is your baby, this show. Congratulations, it was a great show. 15,000 attendees, so many partners, so many, and a lot of great energy and a great vibe. Can you just talk a little bit about what this year's event, this Dell World Technologies has meant to you? This has been a great event every year. It's a great event. But this year, the energy is even higher. It's so positive. It's always really positive to be here anyway. And so many more people this year too. It's just a constant go-go energy all the time. And it's wonderful, it's so fun. I love being part of the organization and proud to be able to say that I helped in some little bit put this together. And so I'm just happy to be here. I'm proud to be a part of Dell Technologies too. So Denise, before we let you go and get some well-deserved glass, this is also a charity and a philanthropy that's close to Michael Dell's heart. Can you explain a little bit about that and how he helps veterans in this way? Well, with how Michael helps veterans or Michael's angels pause helps veterans because they both do. Michael, let's talk about Michael Dell first. And this is kind of his thing. Okay, yes, yes. Well, it's like for Dell itself and Michael Dell too, it's very important to him to give back to the communities is important to us all. And that's a big part of what we do. And this, in contributing to that, now contributing to veterans like these guys go to veteran homes and help with them. Now Dell itself and Michael Dell also contributes to many veteran organizations helping veterans with PTSD. And we saw that last year at Dell World talking a lot about working with veterans, working through PTSD with the art for veterans. And so there's many organizations like that that we work with our Dell Technologies and Michael Dell works with and that to give back. Excellent. We heard that maybe there was some support, financial support for dogs that go through the service training to become service dogs for veterans, which is a pretty extensive process and quite expensive. So it's nice to hear how much it really does mean to the heart of Dell. Denise, Alicia, thank you so much for joining. Thank you. And of course, Odie and Gracie. Yay, you're all very cute alumni. They are. Thanks guys. You certainly brought a smile to my heart. Now I got to go home to my dog before she's like. Right, jealous. Exactly. For Rebecca Knight, I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching theCUBE live from Dell Technologies World 2019. Thanks so much for watching.


Since the study of economics began, one of the most perplexing questions on all of the minds of thinkers was how is a good actually worth something. At the time of the classical economists like Adam Smith and David Ricardo, the most widely used example for the seemingly nonsensical formation of prices was the difference in price between water and diamonds. Every human being needs water to live. It is completely essential to life, even more so than food. So why does nearly a whole week's worth of this vital resource only cost £2.10 from Tesco even coming in a convenient plastic bottle so you don't have to drink directly out of a stream when a standard white gold and diamond-encrusted wedding ring from Goldsmiths cost £2,250? That's the same price of over 1,000 weeks worth of water or almost 20 years. You can meet one of your most important survival needs across two decades for the same price as some shiny rocks to go on your finger which you could lose forever at any time and that don't literally keep you alive like water does. On paper this seems to make no sense doesn't it? Well humans don't live on paper, we live on earth. So in all of this confusion nobody had a clear answer but the one that people most often gravitated to was the labour theory of value. This theory says that goods have value because a worker put their labour into it, that a diamond in the ground isn't objectively worth anything until a worker pulls it out, another transports it, another refines it, another cuts it and then another sells it. This process is known as the division of labour and it is incredibly crucial but we can see it still doesn't explain the high price of the diamond as there's no way that this process is objectively equivalent in labour to 20 years of survival in the form of water. Well if you watched my previous video in this series where I laid out the brief history of the Austrian School of Economics you'll remember I went to great lengths to praise Carl Menger due to him founding the school in 1871 with his publication of Principles of Economics in which he finally put the contradictions and confusion to rest with a world changing realisation. All value is in fact subjective and is determined by the individual. It is impossible to place an objective, definitive and undeniable value on any single thing because no two people will perceive every possible good at the exact same level of value. Everything means something different to everyone. Think of the term beauty is in the eye of the beholder and change to value is in the eye of the beholder. There is no objective measurement of beauty because everyone views it at least slightly differently and as such there is no objective measure of value. Not the labour that went into a good, not the intrinsic human usefulness of it, not the costs incurred in production, it is simply impossible to objectively define because it grants different utility in its use to different people. And that is the ultimate source of value. Individual utility. But prices obviously still exist so if there is no objective measurement of value why are there literal price tags on goods that you have to pay in order to receive them? The subjective theory of value does not say that prices are just the work of fiction. Prices and value do exist, it just only exists on an individual level until all of the possible values of a good congregate together in a marketplace and get matched up with all the possible amounts of goods that can be provided at various prices through which the amount between the producer and consumer of a good is met. What I just described there is the process of supply and demand and I'm sure you've all heard of it. When the largest amount of people decide on a particular value for a good and the producer can supply the amount required to fulfil this demand, you've reached the equilibrium price. There are other factors involved such as elasticity of demand and economies of scale but we don't need those for this video. Every individual's subjective valuation of a good is their individual demand. Every individual's demand scale on a group of goods is guaranteed to be different and the market system works by satisfying the most amount of people's values at the lowest possible price. Taking an aggregate demand curve by adding up all the valuations in an economy is not an objective measure of value because demand is also affected by the available supply. You can't have an objective standard of value that is constantly subject to the change of people's personal valuations, that's simply impossible. The market equilibrium price is not meant to be viewed as a good's objective value as such a thing does not exist. It is simply the most efficient price at the given time depending on the technological limitations of the producers and the current demand of the consumers. The labour theory of value cannot truly reconcile itself with supply and demand and price formation as a constantly shifting level of value cannot be called objective precisely because the aggregate value level is simply just the most widely appealing price among a collective of subjective valuations. And within an individual's value scales not even the same good is held at equal value twice. Another concept pioneered by MENGA called marginal utility demonstrates how an increasing lack of scarcity makes a good less valuable. Making utility to mean usefulness or happiness, let's say you come across a bar of chocolate for a mere 50 pence. That sounds like a great deal and you really fancy some chocolate at the moment so you buy it. Once you've eaten that bar of chocolate, how likely are you to go straight back for a second? Obviously, some people are absolute chocolate fiends and will keep going back until the sunset but I'm willing to bet most people wouldn't even go back a single time. The consumption of one bar of chocolate has satisfied your utility, your human wants for now. The amount of personal utility decreases with every additional good consumed until it provides no more utility for you or at the very least any utility gained is not worth the disutility in return which could be the amount of money you've spent or the amount of weight you've gained in your chocolate binge. The real equilibrium price in an economy is the price where the most utility is achieved across the board. At a forced higher rate of supply, the producer begins to take on higher disutility as their marginal revenue begins to decline and at a forced lower supply which creates a higher price due to higher demand, fewer consumers could obtain the good as the disutility of cost overtakes the utility of consumption. Now let's think back to the diamond water paradox. After you drink a litre of water you will not be keen to start chugging down another litre and because you know that water will be easily accessible the next time you need it, you're not in a rush to enter a bidding war for it. It's precisely the fact that you can't pick up six packs of diamond rings at Tesco that makes them so expensive. Their relative scarcity is beyond comparison and while water fulfills a human need diamonds fulfill a human want. The monetary sum of all of the water in the world would be an astronomical figure totaling a much higher amount than all of the total diamonds in the world, even if one diamond ring can buy you 20 years of water. Diamonds are incredibly scarce and this scarcity plays on our subjective valuations to drive its value higher and if you're thinking to yourself there's no way I would ever pay that much for a ring, detach from yourself for a moment and imagine how many people you personally know that would, especially if they had the means of their disposal. Say's law can also come into place here. If you imagine that the price of diamond rings fell low enough their supply could create its own demand as you can essentially give away anything to anyone if the price is low enough regardless of the personal utility one might receive from a good. The available supply of a good is determined in part by the scarcity of its compounding resources. Air is not a scarce resource because outside of extremely exceptional circumstances like on Mount Everest where it's very thin you do not need to sacrifice one end in its use i.e. you don't need to give up breathing to light a fire even though they both require the consumption of air. We'll go into this more in a later video on opportunity cost. So then if you've done any conventional economic study at school you'll probably realise that you might already know most of this stuff except it may be worded a bit differently. That's because subjective value, marginal utility and price determination are the main areas of the Austrian school that have been completely adopted into the mainstream economic zeitgeist but have been done so entirely without credit and without any consideration to the continuing ideas of the Austrian school that came from this. It's convenient for the economic powers that be to adopt the subjective nature of value because it already fits into the basic models of supply and demand, economies of scale, division of labour and such that they were already using. These models were first conceptualised by the classical economists but they half-heartedly rested them upon an inconclusive labour theory of value. So Menge's marginal revolution was the missing piece of this puzzle. However it's very depressing to realise the innumerable implications that subjective value has to the macroeconomy that the Austrian school has realised but the mainstream has ignored because it's simply inconvenient to their status quo. The chief example I have in mind here is the Austrian business cycle theory, another upcoming topic. When we get into it you'll see that this Austrian theory of value and prices inevitably lead to the conclusion that supply and demand, time preference and value assessment all apply to money and credit just as much as they apply to goods. And if that's the case, the very existence of central banks and any form of government currency manipulation cannot be justified and will inevitably interrupt and falsify the market process, causing it to repeatedly build bubbles and inevitably burst into recessions. Menge started a new chain of impeccable logic which has largely gone ignored except for the first link of the chain because that particular link just happened to fit into the pre-existing chain, the chain which forms the whip of statist economic tyranny. So at around the same point in time as Menge was revolutionising the concept of value away from the fruitless pursuit of objectivity, Karl Marx grabbed the labour theory of value with both hands and used it to create his theory of capitalist exploitation. Marx's interpretation is very complicated, the least of reasons among them being that he contradicts himself at many times and changes definitions almost at will, seemingly whenever he hits a logical snag to make a quick workaround. So while I won't intend this segment to be a refutation of his theories, it's at least a start. Assuming the LTV to be true and the use of labour time being the creator of a goods intrinsic value separate from its market price, Marx states that any good traded for a good of lesser labour value is an objectively unequal transaction and the person selling short in this exchange is being exploited out of their labour. I tackled this towards the end of my video debunking arguments against the statement taxation is theft, but I'll reiterate it here. In the Marxist theory of exploitation, if you make a chair for four hours and your labour is worth, in air quotes, £10 an hour by some objective standard, the chair must cost at least £40 and you must be paid exactly £40.  But deeper than this, what happens if there is not enough demand for a £30 chair and the chair in fact doesn't sell?  The risk to reward ratio here is 3 to 1, which seems a terrible proposition for the capitalist, but how would you know? You still have that £30 in your back pocket. If you directly flip this logic of exploitation, you getting paid a wage for a good that doesn't sell is actually you exploiting the capitalist and that makes you the evil one. You've engaged in a transaction weighted three times in your favour. Far more unequal than when you made a chair and the capitalist made a £10 profit. But of course this all obfuscates other factors of Marx's theory such as the nature of capital, distinctions of value types and price and so on. To keep it concise, Marxism views the formation of value and prices through a skewed lens by asserting its moral stance long before its economic one, and essentially ends up assuming that market prices are abstract and meaningless, but like an atom has a definitive makeup of protons, electrons and neutrons, a good has some sort of intrinsic and scientific bearer of value, which is labour time. There is of course immense importance in moral discussion and I do my fair share of it too, but the horrendous economic track record of socialism makes a lot of sense when you consider its introductory assumptions, however let's not also forget the condition of its moral track record as well. So to summarise this video, fundamentally, value is in the eye of the beholder. Markets and their process of finding prices are always the best way to realise the collective values of a society and it enables equilibrium production by fully realising individual utility through supply, demand and the many factors which go into those two behemoths of human interaction in order to continually satisfy the greatest possible utility through competition and cooperation. This is another thing that will be continued in its own video on what is certainly the biggest nail in the coffin for socialism, the economic calculation problem. The view behind socialist economics, which inherently see prices as not very important and certainly not comparable to labour and surpluses is a catastrophic misalignment of priorities and is what dooms socialism to always fail no matter how many times it's tried. I'm not too sure which topic I'll tackle next in this series, so at least that can be a nice surprise for you when it comes out, but I doubt it will be the economic calculation problem just yet, so I'm sorry if that little teaser got you quite excited for it. But for now, take it easy.


In lecture eight, we introduced the notion of a truth table. And in lecture nine here, we're gonna use truth tables to help us determine when two logical statements are logically equivalent. Well, what does it mean for two statements to be logically equivalent? We say that two statements P and Q are logically equivalent if they have the same truth value for every truth assignment of their variables. And we actually denote this with equality. We say the two statements are the same thing. This would be the same thing as saying like X plus Y squared is equal to X squared plus two, two X, Y plus Y squared. In the algebraic sense, these two quantities are equal. They're not the same expression because I actually wrote two different things, right? But we mean that on every assignment of the variables, they're always gonna be equal to each other. And so logically equivalent statements, we really think of as equal statements. Now to show that two statements are logically equivalent, what you can do is you can construct a truth table that involves the statement P, that involves the statement Q, and show that their columns and the truth table are identical. Unlike the algebraic equations we were considering with statements, there are only a finite number of assignments you can have. It's gonna be a power of two based upon how many primitives are in the compound statements. And so if you consider every possibility, you can then exhaust all the possibilities. And show that they are equal to each other. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna first show that the statement not P or Q is logically equivalent to the statement P implies Q. And I'm gonna do that with a truth table just right now. So we're gonna take a second to draw such a truth table, right? There's only two primitives involved here, P and Q. So I'm gonna start off with my two columns, that key track of their possibilities. So we have our primitives P and Q. Then we think of the compound statements that involve P and Q. There's a not P that's gonna come into play. And then for reasons that aren't apparent yet, I'm also gonna put a not Q there.  We then draw, we then are gonna separate our columns with a line, just to make it easier to read, like so. And then because we have two primitives, there are four rows that we're gonna put for the four possible truth values we can have. And so remember the possibilities are gonna be true, true, true false, false true, and excuse me, false false. Looks like I put an extra row in there. Whoops a daisy, not a big deal. So then for not P, not Q, we just switch the signs, false false, false true, true false, and then true true. Then we get to the compound statements we're interested in, not P and Q. So if you're not P or Q, remember not is gonna be true if any part of it's true. So we end up with a true right here, a false, a true and a true. And then if you look at P implies Q right here, remember a conditional is only false when the premise is true, but the conclusion is false, which happens in this scenario right here. And then on the other ones, here you get true implies true, that's true, and these ones are gonna be vacuously true. So you end up with true and true. And so then when you compare these columns with each other, you then can see that they're the exact same columns, true, false, true, true. So for every assignment of the primitives, these things agree with each other. So these statements are actually the same logical statement. A conditional is just the same thing as saying not P or Q, which I want you to think about this, a true, a not statement is, excuse me, or statement is true if any piece is true. We had mentioned before that if the premise is not true, that makes the statement vacuously true. So it's gonna be true in that situation. But we also mentioned that if the conclusion is true, that will make the conditional trivially true, like we've discussed previously. And so with that discussion in mind, it then becomes self-apparent that, yeah, this is a different way of describing a conditional. These two statements are logically equivalent. What I wanna do next then is show that the statements not P and not Q are not the same thing as not P and Q. That is, those give us different statements there. If I take not P and Q versus not P and not Q, let me draw a line there to make it easier to read. And then let's fill in the truth values here. So not P and Q, you look at these ones right here, not P and Q, that would be true, but then you switch the sign to be a false. Then, because and statements are true, both of them true, but if there's any part that's false, they're gonna be false. So what's gonna happen here is you have true and false, which gives you false, but then not is gonna give you true. And then you can fill in the other two as true and true as well. Then with the last one here, not P and not Q. So we're gonna look at these ones right here. False and false is false. You have here, false and true, that is a false statement. You have true and false, that is a false statement. And then you have true and true, which is a true statement right there. So now when you compare these ones side by side, sure, false and false, true and true, there's agreement there, but the disagreement happens right here. One is true and one is false. And so because they do disagree with each other on some of their truth assignments, this shows that the two statements are not logically equivalent. They're not the same statement. Taking not of an and statement is not the same thing as taking and of not of negated statements there. The order of operations makes a big difference there. Let's do two more examples of showing that statements are logically equivalent here. On this example, we're gonna construct a table to show that the bi-conditional statement P is equivalent to Q is the same thing as saying P and Q or not P and not Q. Now, our table is not gonna need to have a lot of rows because we only are gonna have two primitives in play here which exactly are gonna be P and Q, mind you. Let's see, what are the things we'd have to consider? This one we could consider now but I actually wanna put it at the end. So some things I wanna consider, let's have a not P, let's have a not Q, let's have a P and Q, let's have a not P and not Q. Then let's put them all together, P and Q or not P and not Q. And then at the very end, we're gonna have P is equivalent, can't even read that, P is equivalent to Q right there. Whoops, Q, line our table. Again, you don't have to make it look perfect but hopefully you're trying to make something that looks organized, like so. And so then we need four rows. So draw three more lines and that one's a little bit slant. I can live with it, not a big deal. Oh, that one's slant too. Again, we're just gonna move on. Don't have to be too nitpicky about this one. So what are your four possibilities? True, true, true false, false true and false false. Oh, I put an extra line in there again. Whoops a daisy. Negation switches things, false false. False true, true false and true true. All right, so now we have to do an and statement. This would be true, false, false, false, not P and not Q. So we're looking at this one this time. So we get false, false, false true. Now this here is an or statement. So looking at these two columns, do or with that. If any part is true, the whole thing is true, true, false, false and then true. And then for the bi-conditional, remember how a bi-conditional works? A bi-conditional is true if they have the same true value and it's false if they have different true values. So looking at these two columns here, true and true makes it true. True and false is false. False and true, that would give you false again. And then lastly, false and false, that's actually a true value there because they have the same true value here. So then looking at these two columns, we see that they're the exact same thing, true, false, false, true. And so that then proves that these statements are logically equivalent to each other. But that kind of makes sense when you look at it. It's like, okay, if either both are true or both false, if one of those happens, that makes this a true statement. That's exactly what bi-conditionals do. And like I said, we're gonna do one more example here. Let us make a table to show that P implies Q is the same thing as not Q implies not P. So what do we wanna consider here? Well, we need to have a P, we need to have a Q, a not P, a not Q. We should have a P implies Q and we should have a not Q implies not P. Oops, I want that to be yellow. I want that to be straight. There we go. I'm of course doing this by hand so that you yourself can mimic this if you're trying to write these in your notes as we do this together. So my four possibilities are true, true, false, false, true and false, false. If you negate those, you're gonna get false, false, false, true, true, false and true, true. For a conditional looking at the first ones, remember it's only false when the premise is true and the conclusion is false. Otherwise, they are true. That's how conditionals work. So now looking at this one right here, we need to look at these columns and remember a conditional is only false when the premise is true, but the conclusion is false. So you're gonna get a false right here, but in every other situation, these statements are vacuously true and this one right here is triply true. And so then when you compare these columns together, you see you get the exact same thing. So these statements are in fact logically equivalent. Now the first one, let me note here, this is the conditional statement P implies Q. This right here, not Q implies not P. This is the contrapositive, the contrapositive, which we introduced previously and this actually gives motive on why we care about the contrapositive. The contrapositive is logically equivalent to the original conditional statement, which means if this one is true, so is this one. If this one is false, so is this one. And sometimes when one works with a proof, you wanna prove a conditional statement, believe it or not, sometimes working with the contrapositive is easier to prove. Therefore, if this is proven to be true, that means this is true as well because they're logically equivalent to each other. Now, I'll leave it as an exercise to the viewer here to show that the conditional P implies Q is not equivalent to its converse, Q implies P. So the converse and the conditional are in fact different statements, okay? But what you can show also, I'm leaving this up to the viewer here, you can show that the inverse, not P implies not Q, is logically equivalent to the converse. And this is actually not too hard to see because the inverse is actually the contrapositive of the converse. And so the fact that contrapositives are equivalent, known as the law of contraposition, because of that, these two will be logically equivalent. But like I said, I'll leave it up to the viewer to show that a statement and a converse are not logically equivalent to each other.
