October 15th, you're gonna love it. Love, come on out of you, makes you happy. The whole world can love you, but that's not the love that'll make you happy. What will make you happy is to share all the love you have inside of you. That is the love that will make the difference. I got a wise, let's take a look at it out here. We have the Dow Industries up 357. NASDAQ's up 55. S&P's up 30. Gold contract down $30. TXTRADE's at $17.67 an ounce. Get silver down 14 cents. $23.33 an ounce. Lightsweep crude up 94 cents. $82.25 a barrel. Copper, check it out, folks. Copper's up another nine and a half pennies, 472. It looks like copper, man. So, 489 is the high. It looks like copper wants to go about 650, folks, okay? This is gonna be wild, watching this whole thing shake out. Notes and bonds. You get the 10-year note right now down 18. TXTRADE's at 130.30. 30-year bond up 24 at 159.11 and King dollar. King dollar flat 93, 950. Euro at 116. The yen is at 114.24 and the British pound is at 137 to 1 US dollar. Our phone number's 877-927-6648. Give us a call, folks. One note's going on in your world. And the world of the S&Ps, let's take a look at them. What do you have? Well, we got option expiration out here today. You got a spy that's trading out at up to 90. You're at 445. Your swing point up here is 444.89. This is gonna be great watching how this whole thing shakes out. So, what we've had thus far is this. You know, you come down. We've come down with 118 million shares. You come down with 166 million shares, 130 million shares. Yesterday, we went up with 70 million shares. And today, right now, you're at 45. We'll do probably 70. I mean, that's the bottom line. We should. If we don't, it's even more bizarre. So, your benchmark out here today in the spy is gonna be 449, 444.89. And we're over that, let's see, 37.5 by 45 cents, 47 cents right now. NDX 100. We take a look at the NDX 100. You have the same type of setup inside the NDX. What do you have with the NDX right here? You can see, man, it's such a trip. The NDX is so much weaker than the S&P. It's amazing, actually. So, pictures. The first time that we did the counter-turn balance, the Q's got up to 365. Well, 365, it couldn't handle the bar, the down day bar of that 97 million shares. It still can't handle it. It's gonna be wild watching this thing shake out. So, now what you have is this. We got over the swing. The swing's 365, 69. That's the major swing that you're gonna look at coming into the close out here. My take, let's go take a look at this NQ. So, when you have, we will get more volume because it's option expiration. There's no doubt about that, coming into the close. We take a look at the NQ's, there we go, one second. I got a NQ, that's different. Oh, interesting, man. Okay, so when that thing is not down, that's what's going on. Okay, anyway, the NQ that the low of today was 15,000, 020, and yeah, we just came down with some juice. I suspect we're gonna get a little week of coming into the close. This has been consolidating all day long. We'll see whether we get down to the 020 mock, which would basically, that would put us negative. That was overnight last night. Gold, gold contract. They brought the gold contract back 30 bucks. Bottom line, you got 195,000 contracts, I believe, and that's 194,000 right now, and that is gonna be a contraction on dramatically lighter volume. We went up on 168, no, on 299,000 contracts. You pull back. And if you wanna see some equities, the open, I mean, there's no doubt if you're in the gold market, folks, when you take a look at some of the equities, it can get brutal, there's no two ways about that. That being said, when you catch them right, man, I mean, they're up big already. I mean, if we look at Anglo and Shanti, the bottom line is that it was 1450 at three weeks ago, now you're at 18, and this one here, they open this down 70 cents, folks, which is a lot of money for an $18 stock. Guess what? It's probably gonna be an ABC structure in the way up. It shook off the whole ball of wax out here. United down 37 cents, same with gold fields. Bottom line is that these stocks want higher price. Now, let's go take a look at that note and bond market. So, notes and bonds, 1.3, that's light volume, man. Okay, so check it out, man. We are pulling back, and you're pulling back with tremendously lighter volume. It still wants higher price, man. This is gonna be, wow, watching this shake out. But that's telling me that the correction is still on. So what you had is this. On Wednesday, you go up with 2.3 million contracts, you're down today with 1.3. That is still saying that there's more buyers than there are sellers. And King Dollar. King Dollar's flat out here today. You get a sideways move. We came down two days in a row. We'll see if King Dollar bottom line is gonna get any follow through coming into next week. Let's go to Earl in Seminole. Hey, Earl, what's going on? Hey, Tommy, growling and prowling. That's a beautiful thing, man. Totally. It's my birthday week. Happy birthday, man. Thanks. So, you're a Libra. Yeah, you're a Libra. Yeah, I like it. Yeah. Balance those scales. Yeah, I'm in Frank, Nevada. Okay. I'm looking to add to it. Okay. Should I be worried about this downdraft in the road? That's, am I worried about it? Is that what you said? Yeah. I'm always worried about it. Well, here, let's look at Frank, Nevada. We'll talk about it. So, Frank, Nevada, this is one of the, it's a streamer, folks, okay? It acts like a bank. They got 26 employees, and with 26 employees, they have taken in $1.3 billion. That's pretty intense. It had been one of the strongest stocks in the marketplace. Good setup right now. So, what I would do is this. Okay, you get, let's see. So, you get a small ABC. What was that at? 136. That's 10 bucks. That's gonna get you 143. Okay, and we just hit 141. 140. If you're gonna add to it, well, you don't have to do it today. That's for sure. Hey, just stay there for a second, okay? With this shot, Frank will be coming right back. iPhone number, folks, is 877-927-6648. We have the Dow Industries right now trading up 375. Nasdaq is up 61. S&P's up 32. Come right back.

Welcome back, folks. Dow, Dow Industries right now at 387. You get the NASDAQ up 67, S&Ps are up 33. We're talking to Earl from Seminole and we're talking about Franco Navada. So, if we take a look at Franco Navada, Earl, you know, you're already in it. I think you rented a great price. I mean, you know, my take is we're going higher. Now, adding on to it, you know, let me guess, I guess an add-on, if we can get to 136.67, it'd be a pretty good add-on. The real question is, is that going to get to that level? You can see that what they've done here is that they've hit gold by 30 bucks, but yet the equities aren't hit, you know? So, you know, my take is that we're going higher. And I'm talking about in the physical gold market also. If you take a look at this physical gold market, what you're going to see, I'm going to put this up on a continuous contract. And when we got slammed, I think it's last month, it ended up being one of the biggest reversals out there. So that's a monthly meaning that we came down hard. There it is right there. OK, well, man, time goes crazy. This blows my mind. Actually, that's August, the week of August 13. See that week of August 13, that's when gold got slammed all the way down to 1692, end up closing out at 1775. You came back and tested it. That right there is telling me that the next move on physical gold is really going to be up to this, well, first, I suspect 1834, and then the 19, the 13 is game, man. So, you know. Yeah, my take is gold's in a big cup of handle. OK. And if you look at it, it's in about a 10-year cup of handle. And the handle is forming. And that's kind of the way I read it. Yeah, let's take a look. So I'll take this up. I'm going to bring it back. I'll put it back. I'm going to put it back 20 years right now. Yeah, listen, it's a good setup, man. I think it's a good setup. I mean, you know, we've been talking about the, you're going to love this, Earl. I got one of the traders in the den. He's saying, he's answering it, too. I've seen that, too, he says. I love it. Listen, we know it's volatile. There's no doubt about that. My take is we're going higher. And what I really like about where we are right now is that you already had oil go to the moon. You have copper that's going to the moon. It's like, fundamentally, when prices go up, that means gold's going to be going higher, also. So my take is we're going higher. My take, too, I was just concerned about the downdraft part of it. Oh, there's no doubt, man. There's going to be more heat. You don't make money in the gold market without a few real stomach turns. It just doesn't happen. Oh, you get the blowtorch. That's for sure. That's a fact, man, that's a fact. Like Frank Franco at the bottom, so. And Frank and Nevada's a great company, man. I mean, that's the bottom line. I love Franco. Yeah, I mean, check it out. I mean, when you can take in over $1 billion to 26 employees, that's pretty intense. They take in $1.3 billion. They're doing something right. That's for sure. Yeah, exactly, man. Exactly. Yeah. Cooking brother. Thanks, Charlie. Have a great one, man. Have a safe one. And we also have lots of birthdays out here, man. I like it. We got Jimmy. It's Jimmy's birthday today. He's in the tiger's den. Happy birthday, Jimmy, man. Make it a great year, man. He's 60 years young. I get Jeff. That's going to be, what is your birthday? End of the month. No, when's your birthday, Jeff? Got all these October babies, all these Libras. That's a beautiful thing. Well, I want to wish everyone a happy birthday and make it a great year. That's the real bottom line. So let's go take a look. We know Yosses in May. Well, you can have another one right now. It's sat counting backwards. Let's take a look at some of the higher volume equities that we have out here today. Inside of the marketplace, you get Virgin Galactic. Let's look at Virgin Galactic. You talk about pushing paper out to the marketplace. Tommy was talking about this on his program, this morning at 9 o'clock. This is about as intense as it gets. I mean, there's no doubt that when you take a look at this, they pushed the paper out right when they got up to, you know, they peaked into space for five minutes, whatever that was. They pushed paper out. The stock one, I thought, the $57, right? The stock's $19.97 right now, folks. And let's go here. I'll show you this. This is pretty wild, man. Revenue? No, I need issue information. Here we go. So the issue information on this baby. Just look at this, man. Five. There it is right there. No. There it is. Man, it doesn't seem like they pushed, hold it. Five, 20. There's another one they did, man. OK, so I know that they pushed this out here. This is not on here. It's, say, $19.50. This is just not on here. Because they pushed another whole bunch out there. Yeah, there's no doubt about it. And so pitch of this, one of the tigers here is that they're talking about the Sparks and they're talking about that, OK, it's basically scam-artist creation. And what has happened, folks, is that the journal had a great story this week. And what it was, was that the aspect of everyone was jumping on these Sparks. A Spark goes public at $10. That's the bottom line. There's $10 in cash. That is in there until they buy a company. But what ended up happening, which we saw, is that they're trading at $20, $25, like all these outrageous numbers. And it's like, OK, you only have $10. Markets are markets, though, and that's what they do. Bottom line, what ends up happening? There's 90% of them now that are trading under $10. And most of them at $9.70, $9.80, somewhere like that. But bottom line, it was quite a run that they had. There's no two ways about that. Took a huge amount of cash in. And then we'll see what's happening. What the journal story is about is that there was folks that were actually using these now as bonds because of the fact that it's still worth $10. But that seems to me like a way too risky trade versus just the Treasury. And the reason being, I'm saying that is that, if you're at $9.80 and you're saying, OK, it's worth $10, $0.20, big deal, right? The bottom line is that what if they get sued? I mean, there's a million other expenses that get involved that could happen. And I suspect will happen inside of those stocks. So we'll see where it's going to shake out. But it's a problem. Some of the other higher volume equities that we have out here today, they get Apple up $0.79. Bank of America is up $0.33. Wells Fargo, look at that, up $0.334. They can still basically take people to the cleaners and they're bidding them up. Let me see this thing right now. That's quite a move, man. So they got Wells Fargo. They come out with numbers. Numberwise here, let's see what they have. So numberwise, they did $18.8 billion to the top line. They did $1.17 to the bottom line in the markets like of it. Some of the other higher volume equities that we still have out here. You got Ma Bell, that's up $0.06. Free Port Mac Marin, that's finished in an ABC structure on the way up, FCX. And what that is all about, folks, is that you have copper, almost at all-time highs. Free Port Mac Marin's doing an ABC structure in the way up. Stay right there, folks, we'll come right back.

Let's get over and take a look at the Dow because there's no doubt this move is pretty amazing when you take a look at the Dow Industrial. The Dow Industrial hit a low on Tuesday of $34,115. And we are 1100 points higher than that right now. That being said, let's go look at the diamonds and see what kind of a countertrend we have here. So you took out your swings. You don't have volume behind the move. Yeah, bottom line is that it still looks to me like you got a countertrend move that's happening here. The strength versus the weakness inside the Dow Industrial is out here today. Let's see, INDU. Okay, strength point-wise out here. Goldman Sachs put 97 positive points. United Health, 54, Home Depot, 42, Visa, 36. Taken away from it, Big Mac. McDonald down, well, putting 10 negative points. Walgreens was going to the moon this week. Travel is four, so the bottom line is there's no doubt. If we go look at Goldman first, Goldman's trading up $14.76. And what you have there, that's also in a consolidation. For the types of numbers that they come up with, great numbers. Bottom line is that, yeah, can it go to the top of the consolidation? Maybe. It looks to me like we got 405, and we're at 405 right now, 92. So it'd be interesting to see where that shakes out in the next week or two. Let's go take a look at the yen. So what we had with the yen, the yen versus the dollar has got weaker in a huge way, folks. I mean, it's surprising that gold hasn't got hit actually more. In the last two weeks, the yen just went from 110 to 114.25. We take this, we'll put this back, and take a look of where the yen is, and it seems like that the correlations are changing a bit inside the yen versus the gold contract. Right now, you get the swing that's out there at 114, but it looks to me like that yen's gonna go all the way up to 118, and the last high that was established out here is 125, and that was back in 2015. So right now, what we're doing, we're trading into a downdraft from 2015, October of 2015, but it's a strong move, meaning, when I say a strong move, so when the yen goes higher, it has a higher number, folks, against the US dollar. That means that the yen is actually getting weaker against the US dollar. That's how that baby shakes out. Let's go take a look. What else do we got here? Amazon, yeah, so Amazon, that caught a bit out here today, and we'll see how this baby is shaking out. We, it's a nice bid too, man. I mean, it's up 97 bucks. You have 4 million shares traded, and so that's saying, hey, guess what, man? There's a high volume low that I think wants to get tested, but guess what, doesn't matter what I think. The bottom line is that this baby looks like it wants to go up to 35, 49 first. I mean, this is a big move. You know, when I talk about a move with wide price spread and accelerated volume, that's a move with conviction. That's what you have out here today with Amazon. You know, and maybe the market's figuring out that Amazon's still gonna have more supplies than anyone else has, you know, inside of the marketplace. Netflix, and FLX, let's take a look at Netflix out here. What we, what you are gonna have is that there's gonna be, Netflix is down 444. There's gonna be a strike in Hollywood that's gonna affect all the streamers. And we haven't had a strike in Hollywood, I think it's 2012. It's a long time ago. And we'll see, the last one lasted for three months. So they're gonna fight for whatever they're fighting for. And I suspect it's gonna be, you know, better benefits, more money, all of the above. And what they have a lot to stand on because the bottom line is that if you don't have any workers, folks, you can't make anything. That's the real bottom line. Okay, so let's go take a look at the Russell. The Russell 2000 for one of the Tigers out here. We take a look at this Russell. Okay, so the Russell's trade in 2278. I'm gonna put the IWM up because I can get the volume. Oh, look at this. Interesting, yeah. Okay, so the IWM just went from 228 to 225 on the day that the market's up. So now you've got a test of the swing, you got a failure of the swing. Yeah, it's saying it can back down a bit. You know, what you have to, but when I say back down 224 and it's only 225, what you have to worry about on the Russell is this. The small and medium-sized oil and commodity stocks are in the Russell. What's also in the Russell, of course, are all the mining stocks. So when commodities move, you can see that Russell move very quickly, you know. So you just, you gotta be really careful because there's no doubt you can see this today. Today, the Russell is moving counterintuitive to the rest of the marketplace. And I suspect what that is is that you got a lot of the gold equities that are down, small, the oil equities shouldn't be down. Let me just pull up Exxon mobile because oil is still on a flyer on the way up in a monster way too. You got Exxon's up 65 cents right now, I mean. And three weeks, four weeks Exxon's gone from 52 to 62. That, folks, is really hard to do when we're talking about 4.2 billion shares. I mean, that is one monster amount of shares. Chevron, CVX, well, actually let's go look at the XLE. No, I know. I wanna look at the OIH first because I know a couple of the Tigers have OIH. I'll look at that. So the OIH, look at this, man. It's up another five bucks. And I'm so glad that Tiger didn't get shookin' out of that because I know he's been in since like 165 and it's 225. Let's go to Mark in Fort Collins. Mark, what's goin' on, brother? How you doin', man? How you doin'? Good, man, yourself? I'm doin' good, happy Friday. Yeah, it's a beautiful thing, man. Yeah. Right, gentlemen, right, R-E-G-N? Put it on a monthly, please. Okay, let's take a look. Okay, I got it. I'm lookin' at ABC app, pretty big one. Wondering if your A point would be down in September of 2019 at 271 or if you would use, be more conservative, the January 2020, which is 328. 328, okay, so here, where is, I'm trying to figure out which, hold it, I think I put this back too far. Okay, so I'll put it back five months. I mean, five years. Yeah, put it back like less than five years. Okay. I can't, well, it doesn't set up. Or whatever. One second, hold it. So, see, on a monthly, when I get it, it has less volume. Oh, no, hold it, I see, no, I got it, I got it. Broke the B point from July of 2020 a couple months ago. I don't know if you see that or not. That's what I was callin'. Okay, I see. Are you talkin' about, okay, so March, you talkin' March, the A point, right? The A point would be, well, I'm lookin' at 9-1 of 2019 when it got down to 271, or you can look at March, or you can look at January of 2020. Okay, you know what, listen, at the very end, I wanna try to do this March, but the next segment I got a great interview comin' up, all right? All right. Okay, man, have a great one, have a safe one.

Internationally at 727-873-7618. I'm O'Brien. Welcome back, folks, Dow. Dow Industries right now at 388. The Nasdaq's up 67. S&Ps are up 32. I guess today, folks, is Wayne Virgin. Wayne is the CEO of the Tampa Bay Watch. Tampa Bay Watch is dedicated to fostering a healthy Tampa Bay watershed, which we have and which we want to get better. It's a community-driven restoration projects, education programs, outreach events, and literally right down the street from us, folks, there's a new pair, and Wayne's put together a new Watch Discovery Center to educate folks. Yeah, we opened the new Discovery Center last July as part of the new peer project. It's a combination of an aquarium and a museum. So it's something for the public to come through. We do educational programs for the kids, and then we just launched this brand new ecovessel. So it's a 47-foot catamaran that takes people out. We do trolls on the bay. We do dolphin watch and dolphin identification for NOAA, a part of the scientific recording. People go out for about 75 minutes, they have a great time, and they learn a lot. That's amazing, man. And then, of course, what we have down here, folks, which is really cool, too, we have dolphins. We have turtles, you know, and the turtles are beautiful, man. I mean, there's no doubt about it. You know, and there's a million things we can talk about. I know there is. What I'd like to just get into a bit, because this is really important for everyone across the whole country, folks, okay, is cleaning up waterways, okay? We're talking about, in our case down here, we're talking about old crab traps, right? Yes. We're talking about plastics everywhere, right? And I know I've seen a few, like, we have your website up, and the website is tamperbaywatch.org, folks. So, you know, the volunteer aspect of cleaning the waters, it seems like it's getting a lot better. Is it? What I mean by that is more people get educated, more people realize that, hey, man, this is a resource that we need. This is not something, like, you know, when this first started, oh, you're a tree-hugger, you're this, you're that. It's like, no, it's seriously, right? I mean, it, like, blows my mind. Yeah. That, you know, yeah, that's how it might've started 30 years ago, but all you have to do is realize that if you don't have an ecosystem, you don't have anything. That's right. That's the backbone of water is life. Yes. If we all need it, we need to make sure that it's around for us and for our children. One of the things that's amazing is that people are learning, they're getting more engaged, but as we learned down here this summer with Red Tide. Yes. You know, we- It's a huge problem. It is, and what happened was back in the 70s, 60 minutes to the story on Tamper Bay and it was declared a dead bay. There was no life in it back in 74. They said there's so little life that was really hardly, hardly anything left there. Wow. And so we've done some incredible turnaround in that over the last 40 years. Because of organizations like Tamper Bay Wash, we've been able to go in and do boots on the ground projects like our oyster reef ball projects as an example. I'll talk about that in a minute. Yes. Where we go out and actually do things that help clean the water. Right. We help improve them. Oyster reef balls are something we built out there with volunteers. So it's a community-driven project. Yes. And basically we install these 200 pound oyster reef balls, the concrete domes. Okay. And they populate with oysters. Everyone collects somewhere between 1,000 and 2,500 oysters on these reef balls. And so they used to just grab onto them. Is that how it happens? The spores are in the water and they just form in there and they start to grow a shell. Yeah. And they start populating on top of each other. The significance of that is that one oyster can clean up to 50 gallons of sea water a day. That's. So when we do, we're looking at an expansion program, for example. Yes. And when we take a look at that, adding another 500 a year, that's over nine billion gallons of sea water that are cleaned over a year by adding 500 more of these oyster reef balls. That is so cool, man. And it's all organic. It's all natural. Yes. You know, they're low maintenance. They protect the shoreline and help with erosion. I mean, it's a win-win-win. And then people have a blast, of course, because they're participating, but then you're educating them because then they can go back, you know, if they're on vacation down here, they see what you're doing. They can go back to, you know, their oceans somewhere, anywhere in the country or in the world, in general, you know what I mean? And really get engaged. Yeah, and there's opportunities for freshwater improvements as well. If they live inland, there's things they can do because it's all tied to an aquifer or to freshwater that people are drinking so they can do something similar with plants for freshwater. Yes. That will have a similar effect to take heavy metals out of the water. And that's the idea is essentially, you know, there are ways that we can improve the quality of life and the quality of the planet that are not gonna change our lives that significantly. We just need to be smarter about it and not ignore the problems. So how did you get into this? I've been in the Zoo of Cranworld for a number of years. Yeah. And I came down here and interesting enough, what I found was I have a scuba diver. Okay. That does it. Yeah. And I said, you know, I want to find a place that an organization that's going out to clean up the water. Right. And I found all these places that were selling t-shirts, but they never seemed to actually do anything where they go out and do the project. Okay. And that's how I discovered Tampa Baywatch. Right. That's what they do. Who's on the ground? You know what's so cool about that, folks, okay? I think all of us, I love the water too. I mean, just being around the water, right? And I don't think that anyone that likes the water, you realize that how important it is and in particular the type of life that the water gets. You know what I mean? Like we were just up Crystal Bay and I'm watching in Kings Bay and they're doing a lot of work up there. You know what I mean? A lot of volunteers, you know, getting that algae off the bottom, which is a huge deal. And then once that grass comes back, folks, and you wouldn't believe the amount of the animals that come in and I've seen it within two years, the amount of the animals, it's just amazing. You know what I mean? I'd hate to be one of those animals because they get eaten so fast. They do, I mean they really do, but you know, it's real. And that's what seagrass does. It acts as a nursery for small, some of the big fish that are game fish that we go out for, right? Yes. They start out as smaller species and they're protected by being able to hide in the seagrass. Right. As well as being the food for manatees and sea turtles and other animals, which is phenomenal. But we're talking a little bit about the red tide and since, you know, we'll talk about, we'll talk about urine, we'll talk about finance for a minute, right? There's also a significant economic impact to all of this. And the last time red tide came through in Pinellas County in this area, I think the estimated loss was about 130 million in tax revenue for that summer of 2018. And right now the adding tape is still running here in terms of what the impact is from red tide this year. So things like we're doing are things that are natural ways to help recover from that. People say, what can I do? Get involved in a project, help plant some of these things, be a good neighbor, clean up after yourself, don't throw plastics in the water. Those, all those things, they add up. They do. And make a big difference. They add up. And you know, I love that you brought up the idea that the economic benefits, because I remember having a guy on, I forgot who he was like 20 years ago, right? And he was explaining and what it was, I think it was like at the highs of 2000, okay? And what he was explaining is that you gotta, that he was explaining the quality of life. And that, you should have a number on that, okay? We have numbers on everything else. And when you're talking about what is the quality of life worth when you, me, we are bringing the family down to the water, that's worth a fortune. And you know, this was a financial guy who was really cool, I understand that. Do you know what I mean? He started looking and I said, well, that's an equation that's very important, you know? I mean, the bottom line is that, great, you know, you could have a million bucks, but if you walk down and you have a dead fricking ocean, what do you have? You have nothing. All these visitors this summer came down, July 4th, big weekend for the pier. And that makes them, you know, coming down. People are so excited. And it's loaded with dead fish. Yeah, that was heavy. Yeah, and the city did a great job of staying on top of cleaning it up. You know, it took something like, I don't know, it was 750 tons of dead fish out of the area because the red tide coming through and that's tied back over to spill from Piney Point, we believe, you know, and the impact from that on adding fertilizers into the bay. So how many people were impacted by that? How many people in hotels on St. Pete Beach? How many people in Pinellas County? Totally. And then how many people can't breathe? Just stay right here. We got a quick break. We're gonna come right back. Dowl right now, folks is up 371, Nasdaq's up 60, S&Ps are up 30. Stay right there. Back with Wayne.

Welcome back, folks. I guess today is Dwayne the Virgin. Dwayne is the CEO of Tampa Bay Watch. Now you can check out Tampa Bay Watch, folks, at Tampa Bay Watch.org. You know, let me ask you, Dwayne, plastics, okay? We know plastics are a huge deal. Talk to me about plastics in the water. So one of the things that we've learned, science has proved, is that, you know, when we throw plastics out, we throw trash out, we assume a lot of things break down, but plastic's not an organic product, it's handmade. And what happens is it does not dissolve, it just gets broken down into smaller and smaller pieces. So a lot of that ends up in the food and water that's out there, and not realized because it's gotten so small. Recently they found that people at a fish have found pieces of plastic in a fish's stomach. Now they're finding it embedded in the flesh when they put it under a microscope. And a recent study- Because the plastic's got so small, broken up. Right, but it's still plastic. Yeah, it's still plastic. So we're eating it, we're eating it, we're eating and drinking about a credit card sized piece of plastic per week for every human being on the planet. That's how much is out there. And it's plastic, which is a petroleum-based product. And so, you know, you wonder why cancer rates are so high. I was just gonna say that, man. Yeah, yeah. You know, it's scary. And so whatever we throw out, whatever we discard, whatever we're not using, it doesn't go away. You know, some of it does, some things break down naturally, but so much of it doesn't. And so we're being conscious of that and finding better solutions and make sure that we're gonna be around, that our grandchildren are gonna be around. Totally. You know, that's it. This is survival of the race. It is. Multiple generations. It is. And I'm sure that many people are saying, man, you know, I never thought that plastic could actually get inside of us, but it's very easy. You can see it's very easy. There's no doubt. They said one of the highest concentrations is in salt. Think about how small salt is and that you got microplastics inside of salt. I see that. Yeah, I can see that for sure. Folks, the website is tamperbaywatch.org. Get over there. He has a donation pot in there too. Let's get him some bread, man. The bottom line is that this is a beautiful thing.
