I have my important lucky Blackthorne Shalely from Ireland Destined hopefully for the skulls of great wing conservative Republicans That want to either kill off the poor or enslave the poor Either way by taking away The measly little 2% of the total budget social services Yes, you've heard it right. It makes up only about 2% of the total budget now in this case. It's Trump care which is death care for the poor They're still working on Yeah, well, they you need they need a certain amount of votes right to override Any what filibuster from the Senate Democrats? No, they need 51 votes to override that Democrats to Get it passed In the house. It's still in the house. I believe It's still ricocheting like a pinball machine. Yeah, it's still and there are Republicans Yeah, there's about nine of them God bless them. There are Republicans That do not like yeah Trump care, of course ugly old turtle face Mitch McConnell loves Trump kid And you know 30 some years ago here. I hear he he's not shy about taking money from insurance Health insurance companies 30 years ago or whatever he Was just getting the power and everything he was just the office 30 years ago. He was more such a centrist. No, he was more for the poor Yeah, I wonder what happened to the other money. That's what happened. Oh Money corrupted him. Yeah Money is power power Corrupts corrupt. How's that go again powers money money's power corrupts absolutely Yes, I'm like a changed. Oh, yes Hey, wait a minute. Is that similar to what you told me? about all the hipsters from the 1960s when they were young they were very progressive then when they got older and They became financially independent Yeah, they ended it game concern and they became conservative. Yeah Talk about sellouts when people get money they tend to get conservative talk about sellouts. Oh, hey when siblings are When the parents are alive Siblings are all my love you my my brother my sister. Oh family number one family number one As soon as the parents Take the dirt really old dirt sleep And they pat and they die Then they they're at each other's throats for the inheritance money. Yeah, then it is no more. Oh, I love your brother and sister Oh family is number one. Yeah family. Yo Yeah, then they're at each other's throats. Yeah The human race is a very vile species of entity They really are now. Oh speaking of the current news topics Donald Trump I am from what I understand is getting snubbed by Poland No, he had a beautiful reception in Poland. I heard they had a they had a bus in a cheering That's Germany a fake cheer a cheering crowd Germany they're going to well somebody in Poland somebody in charge of Poland Snubbed Donald Trump a woman Possible possible angle of Merkel maybe I Heard Angela Merkel had had words with Vladimir Putin he had some sexist things to say and Merkel told them off I read so well, I saw I read an article and I see a photo in Poland where a woman That's in high political position in Poland Did not care for Donald Trump Possible, but he had a good reception there the Germanators fighting in the streets They hate him, right? Yeah Well, I'm sure a lot of other many other European countries and countries throughout the world Cannot stand the Trump fancy and he had a supposed to have an hour a Station with Putin today or whatever he had us today It went two hours a lot of you come in to try Interrupted and another half an hour, but he's got some nerve Doesn't she realize he's the president of the United States? He never asked him the big question Did you interfere with our goddamn right, you know voting what Trump don't care because he got elected Oh, well, he didn't know so so Vladimir Putin met travel to Poland I don't know. Well, he's not a Moscow, Russia is really not. Oh, we're there meeting with the G20 Moscow, Russia is not all that far of a plane flight I don't know. He's not meeting there. So he met him somewhere else Well, all I know is when I find a goddamn article. I'm gonna put your name on there so you could read it Being that you're contradicting me, you know He's in Germany for the G20 meeting he got snubbed in Poland I saw a photo of him sitting there twiddling his thumbs with everybody in the background. He was low by himself Got a good reception Germany, all right, whatever whatever whatever. I'm trying to see do I have any chiseless all the shame I Mean that that I know of I mean it is really Not not much you can say I mean if it's if it's an American made product that has built-in obsolescence You know any The middle class and poor in the United States really have a fucked up shitty life because of the people that they elect and Oh Bernie Sanders is bringing his a Healthcare rallies to red states from what I understand He let's see how desperate and pissed off All those knuckleheads in the red states Really are when Bernie Sanders brings his rallies to red states All them dark evangelicals Well, I haven't heard anything yet. Yeah. Well, he's he's on to he's on a tour with this anti-trump care Or save our health care, whatever the hell he's calling it at the hour revolution Organization he's on a tour right now and he I I Know his first tour his first rally was in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania And then he was going to Ohio after that but he's on tour and he's going to be going to red states and Look, I mean Even a stupid In the style that votes Republican that doesn't have a part to visit Even they when they're pushed into the into a corner and they're desperate and they're They're hurting bad enough Even they will eventually Wake up and say hey Why am I voting for these maybe they haven't got though now, what are they do? What are they doing for me? You know, it's really easy. It's really common sense You could have a high IQ or you could be an imprint in the style From from living down down way way down a yonder out there in evangelical land Doesn't matter who you are The point is if you vote for somebody and four years goes by You have this ask yourself as my as my standard is my standard of living any better as my life improved in four years or Eight years you're stupid enough to reelect like they do in Kentucky and what they did in with in The idiotic Wisconsin with four line they reelected them as my life gotten any better Well, the answer is no you don't vote for them anymore. You don't vote for them again But there are people who do that voting who do not equate themselves With those who run for office Well, they yeah, they look at those who run for office has better than them Oh, like like the caste system of India where you have people Yeah, I have less human value than let's say people with money Yeah royalty The blue the blue buds. Yeah, you get into that problem I mean, there's like any old days with the kings and the queens and everything Regular people just did not feel that they Were of the same quality that's probably what started the Bolshevik Revolution with Lenin up against the czars and the czarinas. Well, of course the Roman offs, right? But you got to have a lot of that people don't feel that way though Like what happened in France with the French French Revolution. Yeah, they went back to the way it was And what good was the so what go is the revolution? What good? What is the revolution unless you learn something right and Learning something means learning from history. So history does not repeat itself or it means taking Something the phrase all men are created equal has a reality Yeah, well all men what they should really have a web is a disclaimer at the bottom the founding foshers That's from Austin Powers gold member, you know, fosher the founding fathers should have a disclaimer except non-white men and women all white all rich white men are Created equal because I'm sure if you're penniless See that's what I'm saying. I'm there was no social services to bail you out back then No, but everybody had their own land Right, and you know their way to make a living. All right. Do you know when he was really poor? Oh, there you go. There were no poor if you were if you were an average citizen of the colonies of the of the of early America After 1776, yeah, you had your your you owned your own Land you had your own family farm, right? So you produced your own food, right and your own living Right, let's say you lived in the town Where mayberry? All right, is that a fictitious term? Yes All right. What about Hooterville from was that Green Acres or Petticoat Junction? Petticoat Junction. All right, let's say you lived in Hooterville Where the women were very flat chest Anyway, anyway, you lived in Hooterville and your father just happened to come from a long line of blacksmiths Well, you learned how to be an expert blacksmith and carried on a tradition, but you own your own living yeah, you Didn't you didn't have to answer to some scumbag corporate CEO? Yeah, like JP Morgan there during the Industrial Revolution Who happened to screw over Carnegie and everyone else? You know Underhand the tactics Yeah, you know You didn't have to answer to some supervisor Or or stupid visor you made your own living you own your own land You were your own boss you were equal and you had apprenticeships back then. Yes, where if you wanted to be a Baker You know, you didn't have to get some expensive student loan to go to Culinary school or technical school. Well, you became an apprentice and you learn by way of on-the-job training You know, yeah But I'm almost positive that Donald Trump did get snubbed and combed but when I find the article put your name underneath it I just want to say Hello, hope hola greetings to my new law to my near dear very dear friend Natalia Rodriguez from San Diego, California. I Dedicated to this show to you before departing This Tuesday for San Diego and Baja Cabo San Lucas and Sonata Cabo San Lucas for one week Okay, now I'm trying to think if there's any product that I want to bash But I pretty much Pretty much sums it up. Oh by the way One of my LED bulbs LED light bulbs that I got from the the Dollar Tree one of them Burnt out, they're not supposed to burn out They're supposed to last for years and years and years and years I don't know maybe it's American made but with built-in obsolescence Design to fail designed to burn out Very disappointed, but other than that My LED bulbs are hanging in there I know all by the way a Walmart has a yellow one LED bug light which You know, it's funny Ellie bug lights a yellow But Nats are Attractive to the color yellow very much So you might be repelling other Insects like maybe moth moths But the Nats are gonna be there And then the spiders the ganats Spiders and he's gonna be there for the match. You know what was strange? You had a praying mantis That I took home that time Hanging around your porch light Because of the Track because of all the insects that were that were that were supposed to be Flying away from the bug light instead of instead they were flying to towards the bug light But the praying mantis is not nocturnal. It's it's a diurnal creature strange How mother nature adapts to circumstances out of necessity for survival Maybe that praying mantis decided to work the graveyard shift These are the levity bells. Oh Speaking of levity before we begin with our readings I posted a banner that cracked that cracked me up to no end It said Had a picture of Chris Christie dressed as a cowboy with two six shooters and said Chris Christie Jersey Oh Chris Christie the outlaw Jersey whale Whales as in as in like the outlaw Josie where Josie whales. Yeah, which was an outstanding movie with Clint Eastwood The outlaw Jersey whale and it has to do with the fact that Chris Christie had closed the Island Beach State Park Had closed state parks And he was hogging or whaling He was hogging The entire Uh island beach state park beach to himself and his family and they had a picture of him sitting in a lawn chair Looking very obese and and and like a beached whale and hogging him and his family hog the Entire island beach state park to themselves And uh, his excuse was well, we we had pre plans For that day, and I wasn't going to disappoint my family and break the plans But that doesn't explain why Other new jersey residents and other people could not Well, it was his backyard or say go to he always said he he owned it was property that he owned. Yeah, but Does the whole state park have to be closed? Yeah During the time His family were going there No mule for the budget That's why they closed it because state parks uh require Tax payers taxpayers money And the rich do not like to pay any taxes at all. No the greedy stingy rich. Okay That's that's it Lord chest of field there. Let us sink our teeth into these Rod The outlaw jersey whale That was so funny I had I had to keep it on my facebook profile Yeah, that's absolutely hilarious anti Biotic Resistance is coming causing Gonorrhea to become harder and sometimes impossible to treat I I always thought that viruses Have a a tendency to mutate and come back stronger. I didn't know bacteria are doing it now How about that gonorrhea? A sexually transmitted disease that can cause infertility If untreated affects an estimated 78 million people each year. Well, it's a very old sexually transmitted disease like syphilis Which I think might be more severe Yes, it is a syphilis Data from the 77 countries show the disease As develop resistance to some antibiotics And an increasing number of countries are finding that the infection Can become untreatable by all known antibiotics. Those numbers might be even higher Because lower income countries Where gonorrhea is more common Might not have the systems to report Untreatable infections Tia Dora fly A medical officer at a who Said in a state the bacteria That cause gonorrhea Are smart, but it must be the antibiotic resistant every time We use a new class of antibiotics to treat the infection The bacteria evolved to resist them Gonorrhea can be transmitted through sectional intercourse And can be passed on to a baby During vaginal delivery Oh gee The infection can cause pelvic inflammatory disease And infertility if it goes untreated Spools said factors That have led to an increase in the disease include Decreased condom use condom condom use that's in raincoats Urbanization and travel failed treatment or as Frankie stands to say on psycho the prophylactic rubber And poor infection detection rates Who said that the from 2009 right To 2014 Countries reported resistance to drugs like Ciprofloxacan Ciprofloxan is a strong antibiotic very popular Azithromycin But about a moxacillin that's very popular too And the current last resort treatment of extended Spectrum Cephalosporin Wait is that the antibiotic Cephalosporin So that's like a real potent That's the one the last resort in most countries ESCs Are the only antibiotics still effective? The medical community desperately needs new antibiotics to treat gonorrhea And in the longer term a vaccine While symptoms of gonorrhea include pain During urination Yikes discharge And often people have no symptoms According to who? Really No symptoms I had a how do you know when you got it? That's why a lot of people give it to somebody else Yeah If you want you can toss them over there on the floor They don't That might that might be easier for you No All right as long as you You know as long as they don't recycle come back Governor Christie Tells the tax-paying people in New Jersey. They can't use state freedom Because they're not the governor. Yeah, or Jersey whale He is right We also can't use a state police helicopter To go to our children's baseball games Oh, you mean a taxpayer State helicopter Taxpayer run we cannot take two years off from work It's campaign for Donald Trump Which he he never got a job in Washington by the way With pay To look for a better job Oh with pay. Oh, that's right without pay. That's right. That's right. That's that's tax pay He's on the company though. I mean he's on the taxpayers dole campaigning for Donald Trump That's right Fortunately for new jersey taxpayers We will have a new governor in six months Yeah, I hope it's not one of those Former wall street employee democrats. Yeah, it will be demon corrects Maybe then the person who runs the state Will be more concerned for the state's taxpayers than themselves. Well, it's not gonna Be a republican. That's for sure. Well, the only guy blodago and uh, what about godheim? He's not no, he's Josh is not running congressman Oh, he's not. Oh, he can't run. You mean godheimer is a congressman. He's already in there I thought he he ran. Oh Phil So murphy is the demon he's a he's a goldman. He No, he's a former goldman sax boy like like john corzine was Well, that's not good. How is he gonna feel our pain? And what about blod blod lago? Screw screw. I don't trust fellow italians There were a bunch of crooks ain't They voted for no fucking plays on Especially your is it a republican prize on? Yeah, go ahead. Oh forget it. They're two strikes. Yeah, two strikes against murphy and her that's the ones we're running and You know That's it. There's nobody in a democratic party besides murphy Nobody he won the primary You mean the big kahuna primary? Which means that there is absolutely no one else in the democratic party that is running for governor new jersey No, and he's a former wall street employee Yes, sir from goldman sax. No less. Yes, sir Just doesn't end It doesn't end. Well, that's what I keep saying. Don't I they keep bolting the money in this corporatism in the united states Just doesn't end Volvo Unless you vote for an independent Well, there you go Is leaving conventional gasoline vehicles on the side of the road Oh really? They're taking a bold step The swedish brand owned by chinese automaker geely Really said on wednesday that any new or redesigned vehicles It launches after 2019 will be electric or hybrid Oh, I got a salute that I didn't know they were brought out by a chinese company Of course still they they they will reverse engineer The Volvo the quality of the Volvo car Which have a reputation for being very well built The chinese that are experts at reverse engineering things And even if they're patented they feel thumb their nose and say ha ha Screw you, you know if you threaten to sue anyway Good for them the company will no longer design any new models With conventional internal combustion engines After 2019 well the internal combustion engine Has been all pat for many decades now. Yeah many decades Although the announcement marks what noble called the historic end Of pure gasoline vehicles It will take years after 2019 for them to completely disappear Of dealership love That's because automakers typically sell models For several years with small improvements Indian term years before completely redesigning them In other words It could take until around 2025 We're all new the whole Volvo sold at the dealership To be electrics or hybrids And that's a long time for eight years. That's too long That's too long The electric cars are fully powered by batteries. Oh shit and electric motors While hybrids get a fuel economy boost From batteries, but still run on gasoline Well, it's a much smaller engine For the sole purpose of recharging the battery That's pretty much what it does This is about the customer Volvo global CEO Oh really it's about the customer then why do we have to wait eight years? Volvo CEO Hey, can samuelson said yeah People increasingly demand electric ride cars And we want to respond to our customers current and future needs. Well then put them out Don't make people wait eight years You can now pick and choose whichever electrified Volvo you would The move makes Volvo the first major automaker To chart such a path silicon valley automaker tesla Which is still a niche automaker by volume Already sells only electric vehicles As well they should for using the great tesla name It doesn't uh, doesn't Toyota and And Honda and Nissan have hybrids Volvo said its transition would start with three new main stream fully electric cars From 2019 to 2021 The Automakers said its goal is to sell one million electric or hybrid cars by 2025 To lower its carbon footprint Carbon footprint right up the ceo's ass get those electric cars out as soon as possible drabony We expect that the decision is also largely driven by co2 regulations Evercore ISI Analyst aren't ellenhorst said ellenhorst in a note to investor Referring to carbon emission standards Like other automakers Volvo is under pressure To meet fuel economy targets Particularly in europe where Diesel vehicles are falling out of state Yeah, well plus the plus the price of diesel is not Really cheap anymore. It's up there, you know, and then it stinks and you know, it makes a lot of goddamn noise And you have to wait for Heat up in the winter. Is it the glow plug or something you have to wait for a light to go on You know, you got to warm it up and yeah, but most of all it's the price Now big rigs have to be diesel because I think diesel Has the power of being able to pull a great deal of weight It is known diesel engines are known for their power when it comes to like hauling Large amounts of weight with a dump truck or where they track the trailer You know, but I don't know I really don't know what the technology Is right now for a a an electric powered tractor trailer I really do not know if it has the capability of pulling a great deal of weight Today's not a gas car Is the land of lemur? Big eye creatures among the most Hugable on the planet. Oh, yeah lemurs are only indigenous to the island of Madagascar And it's very true very unique isolated island Very unusual species of animals I have to run to the Newsletters censored a research center men's room I I try to hold off maybe it was A combination of the lord chest of field and the air conditioning But I won't be back. God keeps to continue reading but No one would want to hug the beast That once ruled this landscape newly discovered fossils Reveal that about 170 million years ago a giant caracadil With serrated teeth like a Tyrannosaurus Rex Haunted Madagascar powerful jobs And sharp edge teeth signal it was An uber predator Even the advanced meat eating dinosaurs called Theropods Weren't immune the croc Could challenge a theropod dinosaur Said vertebrates paleontologists Cristiano daul sasso Italy's natural history museum of malar Co-author of a new study On the fearsome reptile You have an animal that was really a bone cruncher and as big It has a pickup truck the boot the primitive croc Had an estimated 46 To 40 18 Which it could replace repeatedly if one fell out You say croc croc crocodile uh in native to madagascar crocadil prehistoric croc And don't let let us not forget the famous madagascar hissing cockroaches Some teeth were serrated Like stignites Not even t rex Had bigger serrations on its teeth usually sharks teeth are serrated Which is A fancy way of saying saw like Like a saw other teeth Were perfectly shaped for scraping flesh off bones Tooth damage suggest that the croc known as resin man drongo sock I call them raspberry for short or rosanna Razzana for short rest razzana Was crunching on bones and tendon Wait a minute. Is this a prehistoric crocodile already existing Prehistoric. Oh, I I missed that because I was in the restaurant The researchers say in a study published Tuesday in the journal peter j It probably ate whatever it wanted Usually that's what happens when you're at the top of the food chain Including dinosaurs And the flying reptiles known as Yeah, like the pterodactyl. Yes They're cute pterodactyl Now sassos suspects razzana was both a scavenger And an ambush predator Bursting out of hiding to bring down its prey That's what the Crocodilians and alligators do their ambush predators. They They hang out near the the shoreline Waiting for Unwary victims to come and drink Unlike its living predators Or relatives the croc Probably walked upright Really? You mean like uh Like the gecko Oh the gecko and the geico commercial. Yeah, no, there was there was a ridiculous horror movie with uh I think it was a part crocodile and part human. It was upright Yeah, an upright crocodile As a result it was probably capable of pretty good speeds And probably more efficient running than modern crocodile. Yeah, well if you talk to an evangelical They'll probably say never existed because the earth is only 6 000 years old You know like they'll say the dinosaurs and men were together Six thousand years ago. Oh, that's why somebody created a funny banner of uh Sarah Palin writing a uh A t-rex. There you go. Yeah, something like that. Yeah, the old catholic church also insisted that the the earth was uh Only 6 000 years old and then when this This archaeologist was saying that uh There is no there was no sign of the great flood in ancient egypt They got very upset You know Yes, they did Uh this running crocodile which can achieve 20 miles per hour that's fast the the mr. Joe Sertich of the denver museum of nature and science Who was not associated with the new study said too bad this crack a prehistoric crocodile cannot wait and ambush Republican congressman At the capital building that would be that would be a nice fancy on their way home That on their way on on yet another long vacation. Yeah Yeah Of all the legends surrounding our founding fathers The one I like most is the one that claims that john adams On his deathbed said Jefferson survives It was july 4th 1826 50 years from the adoption of the declaration of independence Jefferson was of course thomas jefferson the dude with the amazing hair in the original cast of Lin manual moranda's hamilton Yeah, is that the the image they use for the uh, what is it the 20 dollar bill? Is he on the 20 dollar bill? I forget I know Jackson andrew jackson Andrew jackson might be I don't know what else all I know is Uh, they're all dead presidents. Well, then yeah, all I know is uh, uh, franklin 100 Or is it one? No, he's on 100 ben franklin has a very annoyed look on his face That's all I wanted those hundreds, baby You know not one indigenous native american is on any bill no bills. No Not even a coin anymore Yeah, to take the indian heads off. I think one of the one of the bills should have uh um chief sitting bold On one side and an american bison on the other side to to honor didn't a nickel have that Buffalo nickel. Yeah, bring back the buffalo nickel On to the bison for god's sakes on a nickel. I i'm not a big fan of of Of change, uh As far as coins go I'm an ii i'm a lesser fan of pennies. I hate him. I think they they are the cockroach of money I think they should discontinue pennies Well, they are going to one day and make uh, well because I don't even know it costs too much to make a pen because it's copper involved Just costs too much copper is valuable Coppers is much more needed in uh electronics Uh, jefferson and adams both died That july the fourth It was the cosmos working a little poetry. They both died on the same day. Yes Having two founders die on july the fourth july fourth. How is that? That's weird What is significant about adams and jefferson is that they were both once colleagues Then bitter political enemies and then finally through the exchange of letters They became friends They were two men who had held the highest office In the nascent nation that was america. You weren't the republicans originally called the wake party That's correct the wigs. God's republics named after those ridiculous powdered wigs That came from uh, uh, british parliament Two men Both great and flawed with the july fourth holiday upon us. I wonder if such men Or women are still born today in america Well, july fourth is Over but you know, it's it's a good article. No nevertheless While i believe people come to greatness out of some plan They are ready for greatness when it arrives If there is a unifier To what brings upon that something extraordinary that lies buried within the human soul it is a challenge Toward both self sacrifice and public sacrifice the founders for various reasons sought to break free From the british crowns And when you think of how they convinced enough colonists to make that leap of faith Before cable television before twitter Before indoor plumbing For gosh sakes. Oh, it is a remarkable achievement. You imagine in the dead of winter going out outside to the outhouse I think they I think they probably use those porcelain Potties and just dump the shit out out the window There's no way i'm trekking through deep snow to go Piss and shit you can Of course the compromise on slavery is something we as a nation are still paying for Oh, yeah, the founding fathers kept slaves in the northeast It wasn't even A way down south in dixie. It was in the northeast So great a societal sin cannot be washed away Adams was not a brilliant president The alien and sedition acts were an 18th century version of donald trump's travel ban Yeah, hey, let me tell you the amish I believe did not keep slaves there. They were not lazy. They worked their farms Yes, they did Jefferson for all his talk of liberty and equality Like george washington owned slaves Yeah, they only had their plantations They made big bucks They I'm sure they part took part took in the most most attractive slave women They had their gumadas But these were great minds I'm bringing things greater than themselves into being And it is the shared respect They had for each other's intellect and commitment to america that brought them back together as two old men of the letters, okay Former presidents often formed friendships gerald ford and jimmy carter Bill clinton and and george h.w. Bush They understand the struggle of the job So whether they were effective or not they each were aware of their place In a long line of presidents that began with washington then adams and jefferson While I cannot say I was a big george w bush man His respect for the office of the president Perhaps cemented by his bond to his father Who had preceded him? Was never in doubt His renaissance during the obama administration Was a model to be followed Which brings me now To the current president who? behaves As he always has behaved like a very rich Privileged man accustomed to getting his way Yeah, a coddle spoiled child. Yes And if they don't get their way they they take the tantrum Anyone who thinks A septu generi and billionaire Is going to radically change behavior patterns in the pool America got exactly who would elect Well, look at the people that showed up at donald trump's rallies He uh Be pretty much behaved, uh the way they think the lowest common denominator like, uh, what's his name, um harkens even the astrophotos This is even harkin. No, it was the the guy the man with uh, uh with new garrick's disease The genius, uh astrophysicist steven harkin or his name is steven harkin He said the Trump fancies, I mean the trump voters are america's lowest common denominators Yeah astrophysicists quantum physicists physicists But one of the legends and the elected trumps Democrats nominated illy clintop As their foil to him and in the 2016 election because They are not in the founders time Entitlement is good entitlements not so much playlist claim to the white house came From standing by her husband Regardless of her intellect or talents She did not come that close to the white house Because of great leadership. She and trump were both friends Hey, they're just what uh, the oligarchs they wanted, uh Trump and uh in clinton They certainly don't want barney sandis Who is the uh the true? who uh Winner if they lived in a fair and just and uncorrupted america And while he was far better at identifying a national hunger than she was Symmogating a national hunger game is not the same As creating a society that has no need for or desire for such a thing We do not live in an age of selflessness Or brilliant minds In fact, we live in an age when the search for knowledge Is seen As an elitist pursuit Charles Dickens Brilliant a tale of two cities makes sydney carton the hero While madame de farge is a villain Intent on revenge without a reason Today carton is the fool and the farge the smart real is anger is cheered as honestly So is in civility Where are our adams's and jefferson's I've read that adams probably did not say jefferson survive. No matter What is important is that the two men live at the same time in the same place to inform a great nation Trump talks much about making america great the founders did not talk They did They made it a great day Okay, uh with that said it is time for us to break for lunch Yeah Uh, we will be back after lunch With the uh the balance of this show the second half of this show Uh, which uh will be The uh the following video which is listed numerically in the title I think this is uh I believe I believe this is the is is the 605th Uh video show that we have ever done part two will be 606. I believe If i'm not mistaken i'm tired No, we haven't done 600 consecutively without sleeping. No, this is all It's over the years, but we'll we'll see uh For the second half oh I'm gonna i'm gonna do promo At the beginning of the second half of the show All right. All right. Okay
