 Hi everyone, this is Chichou. Welcome to my channel and welcome to another live stream. Today is February 4th 2024 and we're doing another reading of one of our eclipse comics trading card sets that we've bought. For today's stream, we're going to begin the reading for the Iran-Contra scandal trading cards. Incredibly, incredibly important event to happen in the United States of America. And these cards came out in 1988. And I followed the stuff when it was happening, when I was in high school. It was televised, the whole hearings and everything was televised. Because I was born in Iran and we had a lot of Iranian family, friends and whatnot. And we knew, a lot of people knew from Iran, they knew the history and what was going on with the Iran hostage crisis and whatnot. We were preppy, or I was preppy to a lot of info that many other people were not. And the corporate media was spewing a lot of BS. So it was a very enlightening moment for me. I found out about the corporate propaganda very early on, especially with the Iran-Contra scandal. And these are the other cards that we've gotten over the last couple of years now. And we've already done the reading for the drug war trading cards. Amazing reading, amazing reading. And this is the first set of trading cards that I bought from eclipse comics. And these are all eclipse comics trading cards. And we actually found out about these cards from a comic book reading we're doing from eclipse comics. It was a war comic book that we did. So as soon as we found out about that, I ended up starting to track down some of these cards. And we were able to buy some of these cards in bulk. And we've given some of these cards away during our yearly auctions. And the playlist for these cards is available on SensorTube. And the reading for each card and the full reading is available on all of our video share platforms. As is the reading that we did for the coup d'etat, the assassination of John F K trading cards. And this was incredibly informative as well. Brilliant artwork. Brilliant artwork. There were some stuff here that I knew, but a lot that I didn't. And wow, wow, wow. Did that go deep? Did that go deep? And for these cards, there's two sets available. This was the first set that came out, or one set available with an update, right? This was the first set that came out. Okay. And then Oliver Stone put out the JFK movie. And after the JFK movie was put out, there was some information that was released that these cards didn't have. So they went, Eclipse Comics, did an updated version of this card where they made some edits and put some additional information in here. And we have that set as well. And we did a reading of the cards, the comparison between the where they did the updates and stuff. So it was pretty cool looking at the information that was being released. And if these guys were putting out a card set now, there would be a lot more info that could be added in there. And hopefully one day, the CIA files will be released, because by now, everyone should be aware that the CIA basically had a huge part to play, if not orchestrating the assassination of JFK with the mob and some other actors, right? And we've done the reading for card number 26 for Rotten to the Core Trading Cards because it's the rookie card, Donald Trump's rookie card, right? And we've been buying this set investment-wise for me anyway. A few copies of the set. And we've given away a couple of sets of this without the Donald Trump rookie card in our last yearly auction, sort of Twitch appreciation celebration, people watching us on Twitch where they rack up points. And we looked at the two, you know, rookie card number two and three for Donald Trump and this one as well. And at some point, we're going to read all of these cards. Okay. But today, Iran Contra. And we're going to begin the reading here. There's 36 cards in this as is the norm for all of these cards. I believe they all have 36 cards. So let me put these guys here and we're gonna take a look at these things. We're gonna have a reading through this, right? That's our little intro to this. Let me crack this open. And this thing came out. Let's take a look at the box. Okay. Try to get it focused if there's no glare. So Iran Contra trading cards, right? That's Ali North, incredible character, featuring the secret team, everybody that was involved, right? Writer Paul Brancato, artist Salim Yockep. And that's the same artist that the drug war trading cards that we've already read. Additional research, Leonard Refas, editor, Kathleen Runwood, distributed by Eclipse Enterprises, PO Box 01099, Forestville, California 95436, 795 US, 995 Canadian. Let's see what this says. We've got to read the fine press. Let's see if we can focus on this. There we go. Much of the information in these cards was developed by the Christic Institute, a non-profit public interest law firm, which has filed a lawsuit against key figures in the Iran Contra scandal on behalf of journalist Tony Avergan and Martha Honey. For more information on this lawsuit, contact the Christic Institute, 1324 North Capital Street, Northwest Washington, DC, 20002. I wonder if these guys are still around. Interesting. There should be 36 cards here, and there's no insert in this one. I had another pack as well. Maybe for the next reading I'll try to grab the insert from the other pack, and we'll have a read through that. It sort of gives a little bit of info on it. Again, there's 36 cards in this, but we're going to start with card number 1, and go through them. The art is very unique in this. It's very cartoonish, and considering how important this event was, the same artist as the Drug War trading cards. So it gives it a very unique feel, it gives it a very unique feel. Let's do this. Let's do this.
