 Welcome everyone to Progressive Discussions, it is the beginning of May 2019 and the Carnival song represents the 2020 campaign and the presidency combined if you took that campaign and Trump and Stein Trump pansy and you combine them all that would be perfect that's why I use the song I just want to say happy birthday Karl Marx yes happy birthday comrade Marx two thousand two hundred and first two hundred and first birthday happy birthday comrade Marx that's why I have my special red spandex athletic shirt on and this gentleman here my co-host yes and a special guest Gary W. Owens is drinking a very lovely stout yep not really the perfect beer to have on a hot day or after doing yard work and having your allergies flare up but oh well I was in the mood it was just sitting in my fridge I had 12 months I was like you know what screw it might as well just go ahead and finish them well I started off with the allergies then ended up being a sinus infection and now it's kind of going into my little a little bit into my chest but I'm at the tail end thankfully after a few days you know but anyway worse comes to worse one time I had it for a month and I had to get a prescription for CPAC antibiotic yeah that's bad CPAC is a strong antibiotic right believe so yeah I know Amoxicillin Amoxicillin is your common typical widely prescribed I know I think Cipro is also very strong but anyway I digress I'm gonna start off by saying that there are many people out there that I called Lemmings they're deceived with suckers they're led by the nose whatever they're huge Democratic Party and DNC fans they just love the Democrats they love the two-party system so what happens is they watch mainstream media and they hear words like living wage Americans are not making a living wage oh you don't say now living wage to me is an adequate income that leaves you with surplus cash to actually experience the American dream if there is such a thing and to actually have a little fun in your life take a little vacation do a little dance make a little love get down tonight oh yeah I was KC in the sunshine but anyway yeah you know what I mean like you know at least be happy don't worry be happy like that goofy song that used to hate music so surplus cash a living wage then the Democrats start talking about that Americans need to make at least $15 an hour well guess what our wonderful Democrat governor Phil Murphy here in New Jersey just just like the other Democratic governor we used to have John Corzine they're both former Wall Street boys need I say more that he wants to increase the minimum wage in New Jersey over the course of years so he he's not going to just raise it to $15 an hour he wants to do it gradually which means Lemmings by time he reaches $15 an hour the cost of living will be much higher than it is now at more astronomically high and you will be behind the eight ball once again okay you will not be ahead of the game the $15 an hour will therefore become Trump change oh yeah because you see how you see how Democrat Phil Murphy is kissing corporate ass by oh let's be let let let me be gentle with the people who grease my palm and line my pockets let me increase the minimum wage gradually over the course of years it's simple math you know you don't have to be a mathematics genius to figure it out and these Lemmings that just love the Democratic Party and they think they don't even see that most of them are moderate centrists they're not true progressives at all right they're going to see the reality of that so you're there's people you're suckers I'm sorry your your invasiles your suckers Lemmings if you want to use that term deceives definitely and this is what we have in the 2020 campaign Bernie Sanders who is probably the closest you're ever you're ever going to get to a progressive in this campaign right was flip flopping on his decision whether or not to impeach Donald Trump or should we concentrate on the issues oh if we impeach him we will be distracted from the issues well why can't you do both you old geezer yeah why can't you do both is he above the law is the Trump hands above the law well it seems like every president before him has seemed like that he is above the law I mean Obama acted like he was above the law so to Bush Clinton HW Bush Reagan I mean the list goes on well the Obama administration wanted to wanted Edward Snowden to return to the United States so they can arrest him meanwhile he he's a hero of course they demonize it and use the words whistleblower but Julian Assange is what he is is he's an honest hardcore journalist and don't worry by them arresting him it will come back and buy them in the ass eventually give it time it will yeah well the New York Times isn't a funny the New York Times had to be the one to come clean about Trump's taxes for the past eight years he hasn't paid any federal income taxes and but it took the New York Times to come out with this and not the demon crats oh yeah yeah but yeah so that's it that that's that the slavery part the modern day slavery part is also when you add the subject of debt people going into deeper debt just for basic needs of everyday life you know the refrigerator breaks down the stove if you own a house the hot water heater the the the furnace I need a car to go to work but my I need a water pump I can't afford the mechanic bill I have to put it on the car you you you you you that student loan the one of the biggest racketeering scams going to American academia along with healthcare student loans forget it they'll never pay it back so taking taking all this jet that Americans have plus the way they're diddly digging around with the minimal the minimum wage increase collectively. This is, to me, modern-day slavery. Well, I mean, yeah, we have talked about that because as I was telling you, feudalism, the way feudalism developed out of the ancient world and how we got to modern-day capitalism, that capitalism just was feudalism 2.0. That really the only thing that was different was there was the change from the monarchy being in control as well as the church being in control and just having the merchants being in control of everything and claiming that they were for the masses while the church and the monarchy were not. But we clearly see nowadays in capitalism that is not the case. That really it wasn't this new system that was supposed to usher in a new era of, you know, human beings being so wealthy, everyone being so successful. This Adam Smith utopia that capitalism is so successful that even though there's an inequality that if you just work hard that you can make something of yourself and that's the other bullfucking shit. Call yourself up by the bootstraps, American work ethic bullshit. Yeah. I mean, granted, maybe in some ultimate parallel universe that might have actually happened, but in this one, that is not the case. Well, and what went, oh, by the way, did George Washington really chop down a cherry tree or was that easy? What difference does it really make? You know, that was in my history book when I was a little kid. I'm like, why am I, why are we talking about this? I like cherries, but who cares it be chopped? I mean, what does it mean? Oh, it means he confessed. I cannot tell why, but oh, but I kept slaves on my plantation. Yeah, but yeah, it doesn't really matter. I mean, that seems to be so irrelevant in the whole scheme of things. Yeah, you're right. Capitalism is modern day slavery, but it's more than just debt. It's keeping inequality. You know, as George Collins said, you know, the poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class, you know, keeping them showing up at those jobs. I mean, inequality perpetuates capitalism. Equality under capitalism is antagonistical to not only the system itself, but those who run at the bourgeoisie. If there was any, if there really was equality under capitalism, then not only would Marx be wrong, but the system itself wouldn't function the way it's really supposed to function. Well, that's why they want the top two percent wants to privatize education. They don't want the mainstream to be educated and to be aware that they're being exploited. Yeah. And also with exploitation, they want people to remain exploited. Exploitation is what ultimately fuels capitalism. And while we have the first, second, third and fourth world, yes, I know Marx only talks about the first and third world and other various writers talk about the first and third world, but there's not really that focus on the second and the fourth. The first world is like what we would live in the developed nations, the second world being the semi developed, but still developing nations and the third world being the developing nations and the fourth world being where there's no any kind of development at all. Like, you know, there's still barbarism in the world, especially among the primitive tribes in Asia as well as the Pacific and other various parts throughout the world. Okay. I mean, why do you think it is that here in the United States, we have such a good, well, good, and I'll use that term loosely, standard of living as compared to the second, third and fourth world because the exploitation of the rest of the world. But as we can see now in 2019, I told you before that really just seems like the bourgeoisie have become so complacent that it's just like, they're so rich and people are so exploited here in the first, second and third world that really they just, they don't care. The bourgeoisie don't care and the proletariat just don't care. Yeah. You're absolutely right. And let's see. I'm really, it's really extremely frustrating that the, that both political parties are just simply like a flock of parrots with different color feathers. They're all parrots. Yeah. This really, the true progressives are not part of either Democrat or Republican party. The true progressives are independent, but they could be in the green party or whatever, you know, they're just, but they're not going to be in the Democratic party, but people are so hoodwinked because they get all their information from mainstream media, unfortunately. I mean, I've tried to watch CNN, MSNBC and Fox and I felt like I lost brain cells. Oh, especially. Well, the only good thing about Fox is the, is the big breasted good looking one. That's about it. It's like, like watching the Spanish news, telemundo weather girl. Yeah. I mean, I know we're going to be deviating on this, but to be honest, beauty is not just what you see on the outside. I mean, you could have the most handsomest man or the most beautifulest woman in the entire world right in front of you. I mean, they could be easily 10 out of 10 or well beyond 10 out of 10. And they could do really good in any kind of beauty competition they go in. But if they don't have a beautiful inside, and I'm sorry, they're ugly on the outside. If that man or woman that you see in front of you, that you are seeing is so handsome or beautiful, if they're not beautiful on the inside, meaning like they don't have a good heart, they don't have a good personality on the other, I'm sorry, they're fucking ugly, enough said. You know, there's an old saying, don't ever meet your hero, because you'll be disappointed. You know, it's like, I'm talking about groupies and believe me, even every, every, there's groupies for everything, even firemen have groupies. I mean, there's every, these people have no life pretty much. It's like, it's like a social media group on a certain hobby. And all they talk about is the one hobby, nonstop. It's like, get a life. It's the same thing with celebrities. Like, oh, the royal family in England, they don't have a baby. What the fuck cares if one of those bloodsucking welfare cheats had a baby? Yeah, so what? So what? But there are people who actually care what the royal family does and says, believe it or not, that how pathetic our society has become. Not to sound like Merckin, but to be honest, I really could care less about what monarchists have to think. I mean, last time I checked this country, even though it was stolen because of ethnic genocide against Native Americans, you know, we kicked the world's biggest empire's ass. So excuse the fuck. I mean, I don't care what they got to fucking say. No, I have no use for any imperialism whatsoever. And that includes the Saudis. The Saudis. Yeah, they, they, they, but well, you know, they're, they're, all I have to say, if there's any international fans that ever watch our show is um, politics is in terms of not just capitalism, but it could be military dictatorship. They're all, they're, they're, they're like very well dressed prostitutes. Let's put it that way. They're all on the tape. And, and, and the reason why they kiss up to the Saudis is the same reason why the United States has such a huge interest in Venezuela. Follow the money trail. The money and oil. But I mean, to be honest, I hate to say it. Oil really is not that profitable because it can be synthetically made because we had the embargo, the oil embargo against Nazi Germany. They made synthetic oil to bypass the oil embargo. So seems like me, I would not be investing in oil since it could be synthetically made. I mean, you could go to the store and get synthetic oil and it works just as good as what comes out of the ground. It's not better. My car, my car, I had 100% cash flow synthetic, 100% synthetic oil and it never ran better. It's smooth, quiet, better mileage. I only had to do oil changes every 6,000 miles instead of every 3,000 miles. It's superior in every. Exactly. So really, how is oil all that profitable anymore? Yeah, you're right about that. It's like we were talking last week about the beer's diamond mining in South Africa. But anyway, now it's time for part two of Gary W. Owens. Alternate history. Woohoo! All right. So where we left off in the video? This is to make it official. Yeah. All right. All right. So where we left off? In case any of you who may be watching or watching this now do not watch the previous video, I'll catch up to speed right quick. So I proposed the idea of what if the Soviet Union never fell and socialism and communism never fell and it was still thriving and prominent in the world today competing against capitalism in 2019. So the idea that I proposed was that the events of the 1950s and 60s, after World War II, played out exactly as they would. But in the 1970s, there was the Second Bolshevik Revolution and it was a very bloody revolution in the Soviet Union. Not only was there suppression of protesters and the masses rising up by the current Soviet government, it led to a very bloody revolution. The new Second Bolshevik Revolutionary Government got into power. The United States tried to intervene during that revolution and it backfired miserably. And whenever the new Second Bolshevik Government got into power, they blasted their propaganda throughout the Soviet Union as well as throughout the world and exposed the war crimes of the United States. And the emergence of new Socialist and Communist States began spreading like wildfire, it spread throughout Asia, it spread throughout Africa, it spread throughout Latin America. And here in the United States we had the new emergence of the radicalized counterculture and that is where we had left off. So in the 1980s, there was the new emergence of the new radical counterculture here in the United States. These people are pro-Soviet Union, they are pro-communist and they have radicalized the masses because they now see this potential of that the government has now been exposed for all their war crimes before it gets too bad, they now have a chance to overthrow it and install a new government. Like what happened with the Second Bolshevik Revolution in the Soviet Union, there was rampant suppression of this new uprising. Protesters in the street were shot and killed that riled them up even more. And then in the 1980s, even up to the 1990s, there is the Second American Revolution. The new counterculture has radicalized the masses, they have taken up arms that are now overthrowing their government in the United States. So now that's happened throughout the 80s and into the 90s. So now that we're brought up to speed on that front. Now we're going to get to about the mid-1990s. Now we have two world superpowers that are communist, the United States and the Soviet Union. And anywhere that capitalism is left in the world is now in trouble. That now means Canada is really about the only place on this side of the world where capitalism is still left. And then over in the eastern part of the world in the Middle East, that's the still last stronghold against communism. So about 1995-96 is when the now newly communist United States and the now reformed newly communist government of the Soviet Union now emerge into an alliance to now spread communism throughout the rest of the world. And now they're going to start working together to build the world socialist republic and then ultimately communism being the end goal. So the late 1990s, Canada falls to communism and then by about 2000, I would say about 2001, 2002. That's when we see that the only place left in the world that is fighting against socialism or communism is now the Middle East. And I know the Middle East has been a huge interest in terms of religious and political conflicts throughout the centuries. It was definitely a war zone during the ancient times and of course we have the crusades during the medieval times and now all the imperialist wars we have in the Middle East in the present day. So with all of that being in question, would 9-11 have happened in the United States? That is a very big what if, possibly possibly not. If it did happen it would be for the same reason, military intervention in the Middle East. Now if it did not happen there would have to be some instances in history where it would have to be different. We pretty much would not have to have any kind of involvement in the Middle East until that was the last real place to where there would be any kind of socialism or communism left in the world. So right around 2002, that's when the Boa Constrictor Plan happens. They don't directly go in and put boots on the ground in the Middle East, but the Middle East is now completely surrounded. They really have nowhere else left to turn. So if they're not going to take the interventionist policy of having boots on the ground, then that now means that there's going to have to be insurgents who are pro-socialist and communist have to fight from within and that is ultimately what happens. Right around 2005 we have this new socialist or communist line of insurgencies in the Middle East and they fight against the monarchies, especially the Saudis in Saudi Arabia and any kind of radical Islamic governments that are left in the Middle East. So right about 2010 to about 2015, that's when it would really be a forefront and there would be a lot of bloody conflicts during that time and I would say probably about 2016 the entire world would be socialist or communist because that would what all of you have to cause in the Middle East to fall is not to be social imperialistic but having insurgencies fight from within and then they take it over. I mean that'd be about the only way that could happen because have you noticed any time there's like a foreign intervention that it never goes the way it's according to plan that the only way it goes according to plan is if people fight from within in the Middle East that's the only way it really gets changed. You mean guerrilla warfare or urban warfare? Exactly. So yeah 2016 capitalism feudalism is eradicated from the world. So now we can begin building the new socialist republic that way it's all unified everything once under this one system of government and if there's any kind of remnants of any kind of insurgencies or guerrilla fighters that do not want to fight for socialist communism will fight against it they are squashed like that. What's in North Vietnam also for the guerrilla warfare school? Oh yeah why do you think the United States could not win the war in Vietnam anything would have gone all out that would not have won. Vietnam would not have been a winnable war but they had tunnels galore and they have sophisticated tunnels not as sophisticated as the Mexican cartel has with their country but they had lots of tunnels and they just pop up you know just pop up like rabbits out of a hole. And getting back to the second American revolution that would ultimately have to be the way that it has to be fought is by guerrilla warfare. So you guerrilla fighters they cannot go toe to toe with the conventional military because if they do they'll lose because guerrillas have what's called this important x factors to why if they are very well organized and they plan their attacks very well they always win. The conventional army does not get to pick and choose how, when, where and why they fight. The guerrillas have all of that. Well they were out in the open it was it was ridiculous they were out in the open marching out on the open field and you had them all like sitting ducks you know you just you just put your men behind trees up in trees behind boulders wherever you like you know you just hide everybody scatter them all around and you just say just you know she fire at will. And also the last time I checked in that kind of what turned the tide in the American Revolutionary War was guerrilla warfare? Yeah the Appalachian people kicked the the British ass in that one battle. Exactly. The British went west. Anytime there's any kind of socialist or communist insurgencies they're always going to fight guerrilla warfare and in fact in my military simulator game that I play Arma 3 I do a lot of guerrilla warfare like there could be whole convoys of AI patrols that are heavily armed I mean they've got different kinds of weapons from 22 rifles all up to 50 caliber sniper rifles but me with a 6.5 millimeter machine gun with about 600 rounds on hand can take down that whole entire convoy in less than two minutes that way I can repair their vehicles get the gear off all the AI get their guns in the vehicle um get them all attached together get them the trader and be done in about two minutes. That's the Barrett right 50 caliber sniper sniper rifle. Yeah they have different sniper rifles that are 50 cal they've got other various calibers like 408, 338, 308 I mean the list goes on but yeah but they probably learned the um the the communists and the Appalachian people probably learned their method of fighting from Native Americans that did not you know march out in the open with a couple guys playing the drum or bagpipes or you know it was so silly that's what they did in Europe that I mean all of Europe did that I think Appalachian fought that way. Yeah oh there is one more thing we'll brush up on so we'll go from 2016 to 2019 because really beyond 2019 is like an unknown unknown we really don't know what's going to happen at that point so that would probably be like 2016 2019 is any kind of insurgency to try to fight against the new socialist world republic would just be crushed like that but communism would take a much much longer time to achieve that is why I don't really advocate for communism I advocate more for socialism is socialism in our time is much more of a reasonable goal to achieve as compared to communism because with communism the state and the government disappear and work is not done for money work is done for voluntary I mean according to one's abilities these according to one's need so you work voluntarily I mean you still get like indirect payment for your work but an actual currency that is gotten rid of too so a lot of things would have to happen in order for communism to be achieved like greed the profit motive and what's the word I'm looking for actually ingraining this mentality into all the human beings in the world would have to happen before communism could even happen yeah people are really brainwashed with the bullshit of capitalism and god blessing america which is a bunch of hogwash but although I say it doesn't really seem like it's an unachievable it's not that it's an unachievable goal I mean anything can be achieved if it is done correctly communism has been achieved before but it was achieved on a very small scale basis like in rural parts of malice china communism was achieved like there were parts of rural china where they didn't have currency they didn't have a local government it was kind of like what they would call a commune like communism but it was very very small scale but still it just shows you it can be achieved if done correctly yeah well the rural parts of china they had to have that system you know they didn't have any options uh you know what you're referring to like the people from the major cities like well see that that's when the that's when things kind of went pro corporate during the industrial revolution when people left their family their family on farms and moved to the big city and worked for the man and then during that time there were the chinese nationalists who mal and his communist guerrillas were fighting against so yeah I understand where you're coming from in fact there's one thing you could argue about malice china is malice china was a really interesting experimental well a very interesting experiment because some parts of rural china achieved communism while other parts did not so you had like this weird interesting mix of that whole country was socialist but yet you had pockets of communism it was very interesting now what kind of life uh took place in in china under Chiang Kai-shek before he fled to Formosa which became taiwan like was he a military dictator pretty much was he like like but was in in cuba um I haven't really focused on this much because I'm still reading the works of mal myself I'm not really too focused on that part of the chinese history but once I get there I'll explain more about it but from what I can tell the chinese nationalists were really pro capitalist because china was for the longest time a very piss poor and underdeveloped country for the longest time especially when the british empire was still around so in a lot of ways I guess you could associate the chinese nationalists with being like um what would be the duma or the provisional government of the soviet union after zara nicolas the second stepped down you know where that uh where you see a lot of that history uh anytime I watch netflix and and I'm I watch uh old kung fu movies that I haven't seen before and uh they show a great deal of the poverty um in china back then and it was pretty bad and when they had warlords and you know it wasn't china wasn't unified they had you know different monarchies and different provinces um fighting and even an opium I mean there was rampant opium addiction in china yes and in fact the chinese nationalists really just didn't really seem to care about the opium addiction that was rampant in china seems like when malin the communists came in that the opium addiction was taken care of because I know there's this claim that mal just mal and his communist guerrillas just took drug addicts and just shot him in the back of the head and buried him in mass graves and that was all she wrote some probably yeah they probably did because they just want to be a drag of society and didn't want to contribute to the socialist revolution they didn't want to do this or that so they probably just got rid of them because people like that really just don't have a purpose and if that makes me evil and cruel then I'm sorry but there were people who were opium addicts and they did everything in their power to help them get off of opium and guess what they did yeah unlike um uh a couple of uh people that I know one one who happens to be a relative that uh you know did not acknowledge that they had a problem with their addiction and the addiction won right they succumbed to it so uh you know we're talking about adults that are supposed to know better um but anyway yeah like you don't mix opiates with heroin you don't mix well heroin is an opiate yeah well uh prescription painkillers uh what are the oxychotin oxychotin well there's oxychotin and there's oxycodone are they are they in the opiate family or no yes um if it has any kind of opium as its base then yes it is definitely an opiate that is what would categorize it as an opiate so if you can chemically trace it back to opium then it is an opiate right whereas heroin is the most purest uh process form used to be it's the second purest the most purest now is fentanyl oh okay yes fentanyl is extremely extremely deadly and much much more powerful than heroin ever has or probably ever will be interesting now we'll talk about this just a little bit um at one time heroin used to be legal here in the united states in fact it was produced by the bear aspirin company as a cough suppressant well even uh yeah yeah it was definitely and it was it was cocaine and and over-the-counter counter uh cold formulas you know medical products i've seen nostalgic uh labels on bottles you know where there was actual cocaine in it that actually in the 1930s uh anabolic steroid was uh legal and over-the-counter that's not thrown you can buy uh anabolic steroid it was sold as you know of course a malin answer i mean i don't like drugs as much as the next person but do we really need to have this kind of imperialistic war that all is just going to make money on it no we don't i'm going to take it off the black market legalize the whole kit in kibbutz but that could also lead to a whole entire another array of issues i mean morally i'm against legalizing drugs but at the same time i see that it could lead to the greater good but you know we it's like this conundrum at one point we had all drugs legalized in the united states and we saw how that happened but then you at the same time we have all the drugs that once were legal now illegal in the united states and we see how that has turned out so it's like how at the same time can you find something that's somewhere in the middle or a third way to help take care of this problem well it's i think i think uh outlawing uh prostitution is ridiculous too as long as you keep it private behind closed doors you know and i had they had these waste of police hours with sting operations where they arrest the john put his name in the paper and try to embarrass him you know meanwhile it's just some guy trying to get laid without any strings attached and then you know and they rush into the hotel room like he was a big time mafioso or something right but um i'm i'm glad you brought this up because with prisons prisons in a lot of ways are like the afterproduct of modern day slavery i mean we can say here in the united states you know we got freedoms oh yeah how how do we really have freedoms here in the united states because being you know really would equate the freedom here in the united states being able to actually say what it is i want to say being able to think how i want to think and believe how i really want to believe without being chastised or criticized or outright ridiculed because of what it is i believe even protest peacefully yeah but hang on there's more being able to actually i don't know have a living a livable wage not being exploited actually having a job actually having access to education if i choose to have it having access to health care if i want it having access to infrastructure if i really need it and also being allowed to have means to defend myself and also defend other people if necessary but do we have those freedoms here in the united states no we don't hey how is it free if you're on facebook and you're not on company time anymore you're on your own time and you just express your opinion of the ceo of the company you work for the guy and you say the guy's a narcissistic asshole prick and that's how and he basically is um and that's how i feel and and a lot of people feel the same way blah blah blah then all of a sudden you're fired for you know exercising your first amendment right exactly i mean you can say this and the other but like i said here in the united states we don't have freedoms oh yeah if we are so free then why do we have so many people behind bars the opposite of freedom well that that that's the modern day slavery from the oligarch they they they they they they they arrest people for any stupid frivolous reason just to get free slave labor i know we have the for-profit prison system but to be honest after really looking at and analyzing it i don't see how really you can make money off of this unless there's something i'm not getting or i'm not looking at but i really don't see how you could make money off of this in fact at anything it's just a big burden let's have a big prison system it's low skill labor right pretty much well let me put it to you this way how really can you make a lot of money off of that when you have to house these prisoners and when you're housing these prisoners that's money going down the shitter i mean you however you want to look at it that's exactly what is that's money just going down the shitter that you're not going to get back especially by the way that they're doing it because yeah some prisoners do have prison jobs but they're only getting paid a quarter fifty cents an hour maybe if they're lucky if they're very lucky a dollar an hour and if you have only a few prisoners that are of a low security threat to not only the rest of society but the rest of the prison population it's not that including the prisoners and the correctional officers what have you that seems like to me you're having like 99.999 percent of your money you're throwing at that down the drain and you're only seeing like maybe pennies on the dollar coming back how they're making money off of that i honestly don't know because this is one thing i hear about these conservatives oh we need more jails we need more prisons we need yeah all right well let me explain to you this way there's only so much room in a prison and only so many dollars that can be allocated to house prisoners by you advocating that you are putting a much bigger burden on not only the prison system but also the economic system so if you think you're doing great i'm hate i hate to inform you of this and bust your chops but you're perpetuating the problem i'm sorry if that makes you pissed off are you hating me because of it sorry well fuck you too asshole yeah well bernie sanders did have a point about when he said that poverty is um is the main reason why many people are incarcerated and in these prisons and because the system is rigged of course you know uh for the top two percent and um and there's no opportunity you know like when a republican or or um a flight waving fool that boasts republicans says hey you lazy bum go out and get a job gotta get a job yeah wait you have to have opportunity before you to just go out and get a job yeah but these but these conservatives don't want to actually invest money in two jobs or to liveable wages that way a while i don't know you know whenever people have their stay in prison and when they come out they can actually be a while i don't know this little thing called a productive member of society to where they're not put back in prison and putting a much bigger burden on the system again well if there's no i know if they're flipping hamburgers there's a good chance that the cost of living is going to put them in the poor house again and they're gonna end up in prison again you know we need marketable skills and but we we need to keep the job market here and not outsource it outsource it to Bangladesh and um and you know to other third world countries out of greed the Philippines all the office work you know the customer service or whatever call centers are in the Philippines they get like a 50 cents to a dollar an hour with no benefits because they tell me they go on video chat with me and they tell me this the American companies are over there paying them this chicken feed salaries see capitalism perpetuates these problems and then whenever they try to act is like the solution to the problem their solutions fall flat on their fakes yeah it's like revolving door solution there is no solution it's like asking the republican uh well what do you what do you have to replace the affordable care act or what do you plan on doing with climate universal health care yeah yeah they have no solution there they don't think long term they don't have the ability to think long term this is something that me and my mom were talking about um my mom is she's an independent but she is a moderate republican she can be liberal in some instances but she's more of a moderate republican um this is what we were talking about with obama care i said obama care is the biggest piece of american bullshit that has been pushed on the american people since i couldn't think of an example but like the obama phone obama phone what a piece of crap that was yeah and i said i'll tell you if you think obama care is so bad just wait until you see what the republicans have for a plan nothing that death well i said here's what their plan will be either nothing or we'll just go back to the way that things were under obama care and that's just going to create a whole new mess of problems in and of itself the universal health care in this country is really about the only way it can go forward i agree because let me put a little bit of an economics lesson on you the reason why we have such high health care costs is not only are the american people so physically and mentally unhealthy but you have competition and trade over a basic human necessity anytime you allow competition and trade over a basic human necessity like health care it's going to be for profit especially under a for profit system like capitalism so if you get rid of competition and trade out of health care you can actually really determine what the actual cost of health care is going to be which can ultimately bring costs down and make it to where a lot of know it's not a big burn on our economic system to where everyone can have access to it especially if they need it because the universal health care would be there only for if you need it if you don't need it you don't have to use it that's the beauty of it the insurance and the system we have now you have to have insurance to have health care whether you're healthy or not yeah it's kind of like you have to pay into it even if you're healthy and don't have to actually use the system for anything i mean if the if the upper middle class and and the top two percent really love their health insurance that much and naturally they can afford to to pay for it uh i mean for my brother-in-law is self-employed and he has a mediocre health insurance plan and he has to pay $500 per month for his mediocre plan but people that can afford it can prefer to have it and by all means let them have it but don't begrudge the lower 98 percent or the the the standard middle class and the poor of having nothing don't don't cause them to perish because they don't have any coverage at all right i'm glad you brought that up because there's another third reason as to why american health care costs are so high not only are americans just so physically and mentally unhealthy then we have competition and trade everyone just goes the doctor or the hospital over every little thing they get stubbed their toe and they go to the doctor out of the hospital i mean they do that yeah they do that in uh in countries that have universal uh health care they they're like hypochondriacs i mean what country you're talking about because i've never really heard of that really being an issue uh while you're talking about like the long the rumors about the long waiting lists taking years to see oh no those are the that's the right wing propaganda that's out there about i mean healthcare that used to be a big problem but you know just because that there's this one problem that can be easily fixed to fix universal health care that's its big inherent flaw as to why it doesn't work i mean in norway and i i'd like to really brag on norway for their universal health here because they were the first ones to implement it they've had it for over a hundred years now so you'd think after having a system for over a hundred years you would have definitely figured out what works what doesn't work and work out all the kings and mugs right and they have the 800 dollars a month based salary which i think is cool yeah but here's what they do a little bit different in norway as compared to what other countries i've seen with universal health care they have a lot of money in their healthcare system but that's not what they do differently what they do differently is they ration care and here's how they ration care they put money into making sure that people are living healthy lives physically and psychologically but they don't really put a lot of money into extremely sick people like people that have terminal illnesses especially those that don't really stand a chance of being cured they're too far gone they do help them don't get any wrong and they don't like just leave them be and do all this other BS i mean they they do take care of them they take care of them to the point to where if they're in their sick and dying days they can go peacefully and happily much much different than what's happening here in the united states because i mean if you look at the way norwegians are they're very healthy physically and psychologically i know people won't say all the black metal all the satan worshiping and this and the other but if you really look to see what's happened with their country and how sound they are up here as well as their their physiological health they've had only here in the few recent years like maybe a handful of mass shootings a handful which here in the united states what do we hear about every single day someone getting shot and they also have adequate maternity and paternity leave and yeah and they also have good access to not only physical health services but mental health services as well yeah and the exact opposite of what happens here in the united states you know tourists can also go to their university and and and take advantage and they get sick go to their um doctors dentists whatever uh tourists uh can do it too i mean it's really very um and here's another interesting thinking about the norwegian system say for example they implemented this if you are sick you have to be seen within 30 days by a doctor no ifs no ands no buts you have to be seen by a doctor and if for some reason you cannot get the adequate care on time like you've already seen your doctor and it comes time for your treatment say there's too long a waiting list they'll either send you to sweden or any countries in the air that have universal health care and they'll pay for it oh wow so seems like to me they've got a pretty good solid plan going on oh yeah without a doubt yet and not only other health care costs low guess how much of a burden people actually put on their universal health care system in norway very small yeah it took a while to get there but i mean putting in the time and effort to show that hey universal health care can work it paid off very well for them so all the all the crap i hear from conservatives on our uh american network media is is there all about bullshit their bullshit lies just like what Donald Trump's mouth yeah and also their medications are a lot lower like their medication costs are almost dirt cheap so what happens when you take competition and trade out of the beauty of it is you can actually get this for an affordable cost well look at did you see the price comparison of the hiv uh the popular hiv treatment drug in india compared to the same identical drug compared to what the united states sells it i mean it's like it's like getting getting hot dogs at a dollar tree and then getting certified age black angus uh filet mignon it's like that there was that difference in price you know it was it was incredible that the the robbery you know the racketeering that goes on in the united states of the capitalism and i know i'd talk about the beauties of universal health care and let's go to the other side the modern day slavery known as capitalism people die with so many dollars in debt because they got sick under our current system and free market capitalism knows how to allocate resources adequately and efficiently how because last time i checked if someone is having to go hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt personally for their loved ones to have to pick up the tab on once they die is somehow a great thing and not only on top of that not only have to wreck up all that debt they probably lost their house they had to take out a second mortgage on their house just to pay for their health care costs their mortgage got foreclosed on they lost their car they lost all of that and yet that's the beauty of free market capitalism how in a good way sounds like to me that's the work of the devil if i and so that also means that conservatives that claim to be christians are in fact counterfeit christians and they are cultists last night i watched that documentary on netflix about um how all these um all the freshmen that got elected in in the congress um like um alexandria or cassio cortes and all i don't like her well throughout the country i mean all the different people from from working class backgrounds that decided to run for congress okay there's just one um woman of mexican descent from um nevada she ran i don't think she she almost won i don't think she won but she was really smart uh smarter than most of them when she when she conducted her rallies i felt so sorry for her her 22 year old daughter had um an aneurysm and she died from it because the hospital was delaying testing her and treating her because they were questioning her insurance she did not have adequate insurance to pay for the tests and the treatment at the hospital in nevada and then girl the girl became brain dead uh from the aneurysm and then passed away since 22 very pretty girl that's another reason why um capitalism does not know how to allocate money adequately because your insurance can dictate and pick and choose what they will and will not cover you universal health care does not have insurance in fact that is completely abolished universal health care cannot pick and choose what needs to be determined to ensure that you are healthy again we just think of how how bitter and angry that will make a parent feel oh yeah child you better believe that if an insurance provider did that to my son or daughter all you gotta say is hell has not experienced a fury like mine at that moment ceo of that insurance company was directly responsible for a parent's child prematurely dying at a young age i'm telling you that that i don't think there's anything else in life that could be more that could put someone over the edge be honest with you and i i feel sorry for that ceo yeah i'll i'll leave it at that yeah for that because personally someone like that either deserves to spend the rest of their life in the gulag working themselves to death to the day they die or just executed and gotten rid of people like that in this day and age serve no purpose like that like that smug arrogant bastard a young guy on wall street that went to prison and he was like laughing at the judge the price gouger oh yeah the big pharma price gouger in prison it's been a mixed bag of nuts with the prisoners because some of them absolutely despise him but then yet some are trying to befriend him and say hey how about you teach us to get on in this little money scheme that you got but they probably would do the same thing with bernard made off you know he's i don't even know if he's still alive but but bernard made off was the biggest swindler in history of mankind yeah and if you think that the prison system under capitalism is going to really make things any better they're not i mean the whole entire purpose of prison was to reform people so that way they could actually you know acknowledge the wrong that they did you know do their time and then once they got out they could be reintroduced back into society and there be no other problems well you know that really happened nowadays here in the united states no because there's no i don't know there's no opportunities for them to get out well the whole entire reforming part has long since been forgotten let me give you an example say you got someone who has been in and out of prison and yes there have been success stories of people being successfully reformed after prison in our current system but the numbers versus the have versus have not is very wide let's just put it that way the ratio is probably for every 20 to 50 maybe one to two are success stories so you've got over a 95 percent unsuccessful rate that's pretty damn piss poor if you ask me if you're only doing that great of reforming prisoners then that is a huge huge problem and needs some serious serious work on fixing but anyway getting back to my point say you got this prisoner who's been in and out it could be for little things or some much bigger things like you know maybe petty theft or some small or grand theft auto something more major or assault and battery with a deadly weapon you know the list could go on and on but once that prisoner gets back into prison you know they're not really being reformed on reintegrating back into society reintegrated back into society and acknowledging the right or acknowledging their wrongs and willing to actually fix the problem all they're doing now is once they go to prison they're just learning how to be smarter criminals so whenever they get out they'll learn oh hey I'll learn not to get caught at this thing again so obviously what else I can try to do I mean prison now is a school for criminals on how to be better and smarter criminals now I was having an argument with my onto my mom's side when she kind of ridiculed laughing whenever I said criminals are smart and then I went on to make her look like the fool because I said it doesn't matter what your intelligence level is it does not make you prone or immune to not doing dumb shit you can be dumb and do dumb shit you can be smart and do dumb shit but yet you can be smart and do some pretty smart things and if you want to say I'm such an idiot and you're going to ridicule me and say you're not going to say well I got just the right thing to throw back at you check this out there is a certain part of the criminal class that are very smart in the fact they are in suits and ties and dressed very nice up there in our nation's capital notice democrats and republicans and guess what they're getting away with all their crimes in fact there's one sitting up there in the oval office who is a criminal in getting away with this crime so I stand by what I say the king pins are do not look like thugs they're well dressed and last time I checked you were seeing the show breaking bad it's like kind of further strengthen your point did you ever watch breaking bad I no but I okay well I'm not going to spoil things for you but I'll give you a little introduction to further strengthen your point about the end of the second season and it plays into the third and the fourth season so the end of the fourth season there is this man called Gus Fring he is the owner and proprietor of the Los Pollos Hermanos restaurant franchise but he secretly has a meth business that he uses he uses Los Pollos Hermanos to launder his drug money and also smuggling his drugs and guess what he's not a street thug he doesn't have all the tattoos all up and down his arms no tattoos on his face no piercings there's another no he is a very well dressed man wears a shirt and tie to work every day even when he's not at work always wearing a shirt and tie wears glasses right clean shaven nicely cut hair very kind and gentle when he's talking to you but when shit hits the fan he's pissed that's a whole different side of him you don't want to see so yes you are right in that regard yeah well it's um the our leaders have to teach by example just like jack will jacqueline says as a parent the best way to teach is by example best way to teach your kids the examples that the american population uh is exposed to is insanity and underhandedness dishonesty nothing nothing positive uh for for young people to be exposed to and then you have their games that glorify uh a criminal life what was the one of the old ones grand theft auto yeah a lot of people still play grand theft auto i mean i play grand theft auto and i will say it is fun but it's only fun in video games and that's where people have this problem distinguishing is in a game you can do whatever you want but that's just the whole point of a game is it's a different reality to where you can do what you want now i don't mind if it's if it's like a robin hood type of game where you're stealing from the mega rich that that sounds very nice but yeah but i don't think you know that would really appeal to a whole lot of people so i don't think they'd be willing to make that it's too it'll be too deep for kids to really right but i'm glad you brought that up by leading by example and i know i'm probably going to get some severe heat for this but when i when i have a little bit to drink i i kind of loosen up just a little bit and my brain to mouth filter doesn't really work as well so i'm going to go ahead and say this now yes it is one thing to lead by example or teach yeah like yeah elite well that's part of it but yeah it's one thing to lead by example but yet it that's only half the battle you know if you're leading by example you know as a front but yet behind the scenes you're not really doing what you're really trying to lead it just it doesn't work hang on yes like like some of the democrats running for 2020 they're they're they're using they're they're they're using the word progressive yeah not progressives but i'm getting ready to get to what's probably going to bring some heat and this is probably going to piss some people off but if it does to be honest i really could care less what the show's about heat yeah but oh trust me i'm about to bring i'm about to bring some heat yeah democrats and republicans will do anything and everything to like get your vote and they'll do whatever it takes to get your vote but yet they've got people right where they want them like you know that that man or woman who is abusive to either another man or another woman that has them exactly right where they want them and we have this argument of well if you don't vote you had no right to claim or if you vote third party then you're just throwing away your vote oh so it sounds like to me you have extreme Stockholm syndrome maybe you should go get that checked out well if if if the independent candidate that was my heat by the way yeah tell them that they have extreme Stockholm syndrome that's good we could you coin that phrase or do somebody else or i don't know but i'll just call it extreme Stockholm syndrome won't coin it now it's yours it's your baby okay all right now don't now dr jill stein when she i believe she said it when she was running in 2016 under the green party she says if an independent candidate let's say the candidate is a green party or reform party or a libertarian or even even a democratic socialist of america whatever if they if they get enough of those deflected votes well they win you know i mean it's like they just want to keep the two-party system in power the oligarch the oligarch really in a bad way is trying to keep the two-party system in control and heaven forbid a socialist third party or independent you know who who all of a sudden gets massive people showing up at his or her rallies and they're all angry and they're all like furious at at the system they're living on their now and their their lives really suck and they're they're out for blood well of course that independent is going to win even if the democrats which they most likely won't nominate the socialist independent because the dnc is going to nominate a corporatist like they did in 2016 in philadelphia at the contravention uh yes people yeah you can complain about what i just said at the contravention yes they i don't trust the dnc ever the guy that's running it now he's definitely a moderate centrist or he's just a flat-out corporatist with trying to be kinder and gentler and show and give you a little a little smidgen of of empathy and compassion that's what you know just to get you votes so he you know they pander but they're still corporatists and um their establishment joe biden is establishment uh oh god i i heard some of the um tamala harris she's established i heard some of his old speeches especially when he was talking about asset forfeiture i really i literally just wanted to see him be thrown screaming from a helicopter because of him having missing chromosomes is that is that the the younger joe biden that was so arrogant with a younger elizabeth warren they were debating each other and he was so smug and and and nasty to her um uh younger but still i think that's when she went from being a law professor at harvard into politics and she was uh she was very progressive at that time debating with joe biden he was nasty and rude to her and you could tell he was he was a corporate whore through and through i mean i can kind of see why him and obama got along because obama was definitely a sociopath i mean yeah he can be very nice kind and gentle to you to your face but i guarantee you when the the mics were off the cameras were off and the doors were closed i guarantee you him and joe biden were basically like that remember how he was trying to stare down vladimir putin in uh in south america yep you know and now didn't he pass a law uh barack obama where he reserves the right to take any american and and strip them of their citizenship if you have a national defense authorization act which also just goes to show you how scared they really are because if they would pass a law to that point seems like they really would be afraid of their system being overthrown and that would be as a turn to people so i that way they would not want to yeah they said that your family would never see you again you know that thing where they said that you know kim kim il-sung kim jong-il and kim jong-un does the families in north korea which there's no proof but yet that's actually happening here in our home soil and can happen on our own home soil because of that one piece of legislation you tell me hey remember when jesse ventura was had his people when he was visiting the fema camps with the barbed wire and and all those all those plastic caskets suddenly vanished in the next day they were gone they were like piles of caskets and he was questioning why do you have barbed wire around a fema camp and why do you have all these plastic coffins and no one gave him a straight answer then the next day they were removed oh they're they're excused for the barbed wires to protect the people within the fema camp so he ventura says protect them from what yeah right okay if you have barbed wire around them that's to keep someone in so they don't get out yeah like that's a prism the concentration camp yeah it sounds like an extermination camp it was like well it can't happen here in our own home soil oh yeah well look at that proof asshole it's like style i'm 13 and holding zeroes oh my god so oh now let let let's bring the history lesson up to the 2000s finish with the 1990s well i mean i talked about it but socialism and communism is thriving i mean we see the new emergence of new socialist and communist states that haven't emerged in like the late 70s and 80s that really is like the the peak of socialism and communism is it's completely surrounded the united states i mean it really had capitalism in the world really has nowhere left to run that was the entire purpose of the history of the 1990s in this alternate history sorry by definitely about the mid 90s the united states falls because in the 1990s the way things went on the 1990s would have played out exactly the way they would have up until 1995-96 after that it would have taken a completely different course so yes there would have been hw bush and clinton would have been the last u.s president under capitalism and imperialism there would have been no hw bush no obama and no trump you know when i was a kid it was actually an american communist party yeah there used to be an american communist party it got infiltrated by liberals and then no more you didn't hear about it now we have american socialist whatever democratic socialist of america the u.s democratic socialist but they have to to to to appease the population they have to use the word democratic socialism they should just say american socialist of america i mean so united socialist of america or whatever they anacrid yeah yeah and there will be one other alternate history that i will do that i can brush on because no one's really brushed on this is i did this one from the 1970s onward but actually there was a time in the united states before the 1960s where we could have actually had a socialist or communist revolution and it would have happened after the industrial revolution but before world war two it would have happened right after world war one it would have happened probably it would have started right about the late 1920s and ended by 1939 because what was very significant in america's history from 1929 to 1939 the great depression exactly that was the only time in america's history there really was true socialist or communist potential what was that the woodrow wilson the republican president at that time well there was um trying to think there was i think it was calvin coolidge and herbert hoover oh okay and you know there was the uh the slums of america the hoovervilles yeah yeah i can only think of two republicans that seem like likeable people that that's teddy roosevelt and white isenola i mean as far as republicans go but the rest of them and i told you about the history of the soviet union while america was having the depression the soviet union was developing you know the soviet union was become was becoming a world superpower and in fact soviet union became a world superpower twice it was a world superpower before world war two and also after world war two because they rebuilt their economy from the ground up twice they rebuilt well they built their economy from the ground up the first time i mean a backwards piss world or backwards third world piss poor nation through the world superpower the first time then world war two just decimated everything in the soviet union or at least in the western part of the soviet union but then yet they rebuilt it from the ground up a second time and became a world superpower a second time so seems like to me socialism and communism is a much better system because can capitalism really say that it's built the united states up to a world superpower twice especially less than 50 years and honestly say it's done that and if it does it's full of shit oh by the way uh during the period of the great depression was that about the same time they also had that ridiculous insane law called prohibition was that about this did they occur simultaneously no prohibition was from 1919 to 1933 so prohibition was during the roaring 20s oh wow oh really it was that long oh they're nuts man those those right wingers are out of their mind i didn't know what's that long yes from 1919 until 1933 was prohibition so basically the whole roaring 20s there was the prohibition speakeasies it was the whole entire roaring 20s so when when uh babe ruth and lou garrick was around they they had to go to speakeasies unbelievable you know only you know for thousands of years men women and even children were drinking alcoholic beverages wine different beers or else it's when you had that temperance movement in the so-called moral majority oh you're trying to clean up america's act you mean all the ugly ugly women with curls in the hair picketing uh like i saw this western one time in there and they had the the picket that they had the protest sign said demon rum you know everything was uh alcohol was like of the devil and you know and that's because their their husbands probably weren't paying attention to them anymore they would go to the cat houses yeah and also did you ever watch little house on the prairie it was too corny for me yeah i mean i i want me my wife we watched it be pretty much seen all the episodes i gotta say i mean yeah it was a good show but there was one character on the show that i really didn't like and this was little house on the prairie was taking place in like the late 1800s at the beginning of the women's temperate movement but one character was part of the women's temperate movement Harriet really yeah and in one episode she appeared as though she was the biggest fucking hypocrite ever because she was far the women's temperance movement but then yet when a doctor came into town to give her an elixir it had alcohol in it and she drunk like two bottles of stuff and got so fucking smashed you know you know and you know it's really cool and she didn't bother to read the label by the way but she didn't say that she didn't like the experience talking about liking the experience so you know that the doctors of the 19th century actually had an orgasm machine to relieve female stress uh i saw it i saw it on um the travel channel on on uh the the mysteries of the museum i think it's called the mysteries of the museum and they and they go back in the street and they work yeah they have to look at this doctors used it as a form of therapy hey talk about making easy easy money i mean uh that's almost as stupid as the cutlers on facebook i couldn't believe you know they would cuddle people and 100 hours an hour for that but in this case yeah they actually had an orgasmic machine that they used and uh you know i mean those women back then with the petticoats and the layers and and and they had clothing up to the up to the chin and they and they used to fan themselves on the front porch there was no air conditioning they probably stunk the high heavens back then you know and uh the bathing what can you imagine i mean the middle ages how much they they must have stunk oh my god yeah but just you talking about this orgasm machine for women's stress relief so let me guess that was probably the world's first commercial vibrator yes but it was treated as a serious therapy that's the funny part of it well i hate to say it they were probably on to something because have you ever gone any point in your time to where like you've gone weeks or months or possibly even years before having the big orgasm for whether it be for men or for women i'll tell you it is madning well there are people because of their life experience and their upbringing that have never had the you know the big kahuna you know the big real orgasm and uh and then i know what you're talking about when a woman who has never had it actually experiences it with uh some macho guy she hooks up with that you know knows how to take care of a woman um it it it would it would probably be um psychologically i think well i guarantee they've probably known what an orgasm was because you know everyone was young everyone's probably experimented as a teenager like you know having sex drinking alcohol maybe smoking a little bit of marijuana things like that but yeah it actually is a very serious therapy because if you've ever had sex or you've orgasm and you don't orgasm on a regular basis it actually makes you very stressed and very anal retentive yeah there's a certain uh uh energy that needs to be released uh my my late co-host was trying to explain to me it has to do with um the uh electromagnetic fields like like with the Chinese deal with acupuncture they did the energy meridians or um they do um they do massage therapy on your body and then they have reflexology for your feet yeah the the reflexology points are on the feet the hands and the ears yeah and um yeah their um reflexology points now i have these well they're not ancient they're it's based on an ancient tool i have these ancient um chinese reflexology balls that are based on talism one one has a low chime when you shake it one has a high pitch chime in the right hand you rotate it clockwise and in the left hand counterclockwise and as they rotate they come in different sizes they're made of like steel and they stimulate the acupressure reflexology points on your hand which are connected to internal organs yeah but oh modern medicine does not like alternate or um um what would they call it it's oh yeah alternate medicine modern medicine does not like alternate medicine now they'll call it witch doctorry or something witch doctor yeah i mean granted there are some of it that is no bullshit but some of it actually is science-based all right stay right there okay i mean who who who am i to to criticize an eight thousand year old um culture okay the the this is the jumbo size i had him since the 1980s i got him from a flea market all right clockwise when i first started i couldn't i was like uh i couldn't do it left hand counter clockwise okay and uh it's from a town called about bowding china b a old d i n g now i'm sorry i picked these up from my my mom but when she was alive so you've been to china no no we just have such a multicultural area i just you know it was a gift shop at a flea market and it tells the whole story on here but it's online and it comes in this silken box with the dragons well that's really pretty well the one i have has the you know the dragons the dragons on it you know this one is um for women's medium size okay and it's the same thing now this philippine girl i've been seeing she she went to a frift shop in queens new york and she got blue ones with the yin and yang symbol on it and uh she was just fascinated when i showed it to her and then i i sent her the link it's on wikipedia and you know full of the internet and i showed her how to use it and apparently there's also reflexology points in your hands as well yeah yeah they're about um bowding the city in china it goes back to one of the dynasties yeah capital b a o d i n g bowding china okay but i'm i'm glad you brought this up this is like you know i'm saying you know modern medicine does not like alternate medicine but some alternate medicine actually does have a science to it but well you know i'll let you in on another insight that you're probably not going to see in modern history books because they're going to claim all its pseudoscience is this that and the other but if you don't believe me try this out for yourself okay so you're dating this filipino woman right right so how open-minded is she they are very open-minded if you you can discuss any subject with them they're very smart in general the asian women but they are very proper in the way they converse with you it's like you're talking to a scientist or a doctor they're they're they don't they're not like come over here you big hunk of man you know grab me by the freaking kuchi there are you tarzan you know i mean they're not going to do an american you know they're not going to flirt like an american girl all right but but some the one if you go over there you're a tourist then the filipino girls will be all over you know well this one that you're seeing so like how open-minded is she and like how receptive is she to love or affection okay she told me she says i'm from the old school i have to get acquainted to get to know a man and right with time if there's chemistry if there's romantic chemistry when the time is right then i want things to happen spontaneously in a natural way i do not like men that try to force sex on me right uh let's just take one step at a time and and see what fate brings all right well let me try this one on you okay now this is probably going to weird you out and it might weird out other people who watch this but you know just go with me here on this and if you don't believe me try this for yourself okay all right so you know how we're talking about reflexology points yeah that's on that's if you know more of a personal touch but did you know that you can tell exactly everything you want to know about a woman inside and out right just by looking at her feet well you know it's funny you mentioned that because my friend from Shanghai china says a traditional chinese doctor that knows herbs you know how he um diagnosed his patients by just simply taking the pulse by the pulse on the wrist and sometimes looking at your iris of your eye but mostly the pulse i said how the hell do you diagnose a patient based on the pulse he said she says i don't know but that is a big part of how they diagnose so when you say feet i believe it well no that is just following me on this you can know everything you need to know about a woman by looking at her feet looking at the tops and her soles and they will tell you everything you need to know about her you mean the the instep as well as the the the bottom the arch that mean the entire foot yes and i'll explain it to you okay so if you want to know how she looks you know underneath the clothes the the shape of her foot and the features about her soles will tell you everything all right follow me right so her shoe size like how long they are is in accordance to her height and the width is in correlation to her weight so that's the first start that's the first step all right the heat the shape of her heel actually correlates to the shape of her ass now the area above her heel but below her arch is her midsection her arches represent her body's curves so she's got like an if she has really high arches the more like you're just going to have an hourglass body but you know she's kind of more flat-footed then she's not going to have a curvy body because you yeah you have pear shaped women you have the the sought after like you said hourglass shape with with a v-shaped back small waist and hips yeah the arches have a direct correlation from the bottom of the arch to the top of the arch is exactly how the curvature of her body is going to go so now the balls of her feet are going to actually represent her bust it's going to have a correlation to her midsection her bust okay so right right beneath your toes underneath all right now the section above with the balls in the feet and the toe below the toe line is her shoulders so that's a direct correlation to see if she's going to have if she has narrow shoulders or if she has broad shoulders what have you okay now this is where you get to see what she's like on the inside all right now the shape of her toes and the way the toe patterns are have different personalities oh just like there are different types of fingertips on a human spatula in tips right yeah let me let me break the break them down to you okay so the big toe represents ambition second toe are emotions third toe is creativity fourth toe is love fifth toe is trust so if her toes are long then she might be very emotional you know very expressive with her emotions creative very loving trusting what have you but different toe lines actually represent different personality traits and overall types of personalities all right so you have what's called the Egyptian where it forms a stair line going down like this that's your more typical you know the average so to speak all right then you have the Greek which is like this starts here the second toe is longer than the big toe and then it goes down like a step that's Greek women with those kinds are in general your more alpha male or alpha female types so they're going to be very bossy oh geez oh yeah yeah like the typical like nagging no not necessarily like nagging but more of your bossy more alpha female types they take charge bossy type of yeah like those are going to be more strong headed more independent and more stubborn yeah the the women there are most likely to become with say a store manager general store manager or an exact female executive all right now the third type is Roman all right it starts as a line it goes from big toe second toe third toe and then it steps down to fourth and fifth all right these women are more of your artistic more creative and more laid back they're going to be they might be bossy but yet they might be more mellow and laid back but in general they're going to be more laid back more of your artistic types because they're going to be very they know how to balance their emotions with their creativity okay all right now the fourth type is called Germanic all right now this has different variations usually it's the big toe second third fourth are all the same length and it drops down on the fifth these are kind of more of your desired types because they're going to have ambition they're going to be emotional they're going to be creative and they're going to be very loving and also very trusting interesting and say for example when you look at a woman's feet and you notice something about her toes you know they also kind of correlate to her like you know her height and her width you know there's that correlation too but there's the active and then the passive personality and the way you determine which is active in which is passive is is she right-handed or is she left-handed because sometimes the toe lines on both feet may be the same but yet they also may slightly vary depending so you got to determine which is the active and which is the passive okay yeah because I my my mom and grandmother were involved in mysticism my grandmother was a empathic healer where if she would do a ritual on a sick person and tears would profusely run down her face the symptoms of the sick of the ill person would go into her and then eventually leave her and but she would immediately soon as she put her hands on a person's head the tears would just start rushing out they call that an empathic healer and uh yeah my my my mom was involved with a lot of yeah good luck finding something like that in a modern psychology book or any kind of modern history book modern medical book you're not going to find something like that now now Bishop Brian actually had had or still has um a lot of disagreements with the Roman Catholic Church because he reveals things that of course they want to keep hidden the Knights Templar that insisted that Jesus escapes to Europe with Mary Magdalene and started a bloodline and the symbol is called the hooked X you know this is before the Freemasons uh right right born from from that the hooked X now Bishop Brian who does the exorcisms uh when he's called on the travel channel on ghost adventures you know he um he is open minded when it comes to mysticism the occult when it comes to uh spirits that are you know from deceased people that are not at rest and they're still wandering the earth you know there are certain things that the Catholic Church just doesn't want to discuss with the public yeah yeah I'll even I'll even go one step further with what as I said and you know had I've dated some exes in the past before I met my wife and my wife's receptive to this too um um if you really want to um kind of like I'm trying to think of the word is it kinesthetically is that the word I'm looking for if you want to like kinesthetically bond with your significant other or you know it doesn't matter whether it's a man and a woman man and a man man romantic chemistry yeah aesthetics yeah if you want to really bond give her a reflexology foot massage now before before you say anything just go with me on this not only can you tell what she looks like on the inside and outside just by looking at them you can also tell about her physical and psychological health by giving her one now here's how you do it you have to do it a very specific way because I've had exes that you know I've done this on and sometimes their feet were sensitive like more ticklish and others weren't so I found this is like the best way to do it is all right so you put on like some nice warming lotion let it set for about five minutes and then what you do is you take your thumbs like this you start at the base of the heel then you slowly do like this inch up and then slowly do like oh like an inch one all right what you are doing is by you doing this you're actually feeling her physical as well as psychological health and there's any kind of imbalances or any kind of um ailments or what have you you can work them out because I had this one ex I did it on um she was having some really bad depression and she had really bad constipation so what I did was I did this for her for about an hour and then once I was done the next day she sent me a message saying I feel like I'm a new woman I'm like well what do you mean she said my depression is gone I took the biggest deuce I've ever taken in my entire life I'm like oh oh yeah you feel better I can picture her plunging the toilet ball as she you know it wasn't that bad but I was like oh yeah I'm like okay so it does work it's not just pseudoscience no no I I agree with you 100% I mean there are there are these electromagnetic pathways of energy to flow to our bodies called meridians and they're they're like rivers yeah they do get blocked they do they do get blocked and uh what you just described uh because whenever I did it she says she can feel like whenever I do like an interwarming thing and I put pressure on certain points she'd feel stuff like up in her sinuses in her eyes in her nose in her mouth and throughout the different parts of her body let's just say when it came time for the next date um I I'm not going to say what happened the next day let's just say it was a fun date that next following date well you're like her uh witch doctor a physician like you're like you helped her out well and then when it was all sudden done I was like wow that was amazing but what was that for there's like you know I I never had that level of intensity while on a date like that and you know what we did in the bedroom here's what she told me she said that in some ways we have bonded in a way of which she had never bonded with another man so I was like okay so maybe that saying is true that the more emotional of a bond there is between a man and woman or a man and a man and a woman and a woman the better the sex is that when you go beyond the biology aspect and actually take it to a much deeper level it is much more phenomenal I have some acupressure reflexology maps that I put on the progressive discussions facebook page in the album there's an album called holistic health talk and I got I collected them over the years and they it shows you what organs connected to what section of the bottom of the foot and the heel there was an article many years ago in let's live magazine that said if if you're by yourself you can actually give yourself a reflexology treatment by getting a bag of glass marbles that children play that game and putting it on the carpet and just running your feet forwards and backwards over the marbles and as the marbles rotate they stimulate different points it made sense you know as far as giving yourself fun um but um yeah modern medicine would look at that as pseudoscience and you know it's not real medicine and this and the other I'm like well guess what all you gotta say is the results speak themselves hey all I know is I've taken uh panax Korean red panax ginseng from Korea comes six year old roots there's the ginseng roots have to be at least six years old and they work there's there's substances in all these herbs that can that can be identified and then there are unknown factors in these plants also that that work synergistically together the science can't explain it the problem with science is they want to patent everything out of greed yeah that's why capitalism and science whenever capitalism sticks its teeth into anything it actually a lot of ways halts progress because if you just imagine if you took competition and trade in the profit mode of greed out of science how rapid it would progress like let's let's let's take um former let's take recovering alcoholics or covering drug addicts or even people that want to cheat at getting their drug test if they take milk thistle standardized extract let's say nature's way has a good one right mm-hmm milk thistle the active ingredient is a silly maron right it's not spelled like silly putty it just that's the way it sounds uh yeah silly maron is the active ingredient that's standardized so you see a percentage on the label so much percentage of silly maron for every capsule taken so it's standardized but then you'll have all the unknown factors milk thistle is a liver cleanser mm-hmm that's what it's known for um you know uh stinging nettles is supposed to be good for men male problems for allergies so you know herbs are time proven but there's no big bucks for for the drug companies and plus i'm one of those people that if i go to the hospital or if i'm saying i need to go to the doctor or i need to go to the hospital then it's bad because i will naturally treat any kind of ailment or problem that i had before i will step foot in the doctor's office or a hospital because i hate going there i hate going there because i don't like people who go there because the people that you sit with in the waiting room or just you just want to just just stand in the corner and just say go about 10 000 miles away from me in that direction well it's not just one waiting room i mean jerry seinfeld's stand-up comedy was right there's enough there's the second waiting room and plus i hate the smell of a doctor's office oh it's terrible and you and it's always freezing it's always it's so cold and no i mean not that i mean i don't get cold or burn up easily but if i'm complaining that i'm cold or it's hot then more likely it really is colder hot yeah the doctors don't just don't freeze me when they put the gown on me why i said why is my ass always hanging out of a hospital gown i mean it's like you know when i went for my two hernia procedures i said every time i'm in a hospital my my i can't close this fucking thing i can't tie it my ass is always hanging out of it the food sucks i said let me ask you a question is it true that that registered dietitians designed hospital food menu they go yes is it also true that they require a master's degree to be a registered dietitian the answer again was yes so you mean to tell me people with master's degrees are putting together this garbage i mean i've ate some hospital food some of it is good but some of it is terrible but where i've had the best luck in getting hospital food is going to the hospital cafeteria oh no they're fine i like the hospital cafeteria yeah they got some pretty mean cooks in a hospital cafeteria but i thought i always thought that the hospital food that you get comes from the cafeteria well yeah but how come the food is so much damn better in the cafeteria i mean i've ate hospital food and i've ate you know out of the hospital cafeteria i mean i have not really noticed a difference but then yet that's just me so take it with a grain of salt i got a better idea regarding Memphis, Tennessee and to all those old barbecue establishments yeah we got some pretty good barbecue around here i'll tell you you know there's a there's a there's a paranormal investigation team that's on tv from Tennessee they're all from Tennessee and they're they they bring the electronic equipment and they investigate all all that stuff you know but i also saw this old landmark in Memphis where they they fry they deep fry everything in this restaurant in lard pig fat they said the lard is over a hundred years old because as long as you keep the the the pork fat clean it doesn't have to be refrigerated and it will last forever i've tasted there between lard and butter i think butter tastes better butter oh yeah like the way the irish use a lot of i get the carry gold i notice a difference of flavor from the imported carry gold butter from ireland and the domestic butter all right i've been fighting this cold i better go soon but anyway um the ghee now the the indians use a clarified butter called g uh gh e and it's actually used in indian uh aryuvetic medicine by the yogis and everything and it's actually medicinal there's something about the process of clarifying the butter which they they bring it to a high temperature they melt it and then they skim off any impurities that rises to the top and then whatever's left they cool it down and they solidify it and that's what ghee is there's something about ghee from well the the dairy cows that they uh they have in india that make this product are all organic grass fed cows no antibiotics no drugs of any kind they're you know free range free range pasture i mean grass fed uh cows right which i believe has a lot to do with the quality of either the dairy product or or the beef now of course they don't eat beef with their hindus right but uh i i think there's a huge difference i mean i've had um i've had uh organic grass fed um state and dairy products and i can definitely taste a difference well some organic foods i've tasted that well we'll talk about this is our last topic of discussion then we'll go um i mean i've tasted some organic foods like i've tasted like you know all natural grass fed beef versus what you store i mean i noticed there is a taste difference but is the price difference justifiable in my opinion no they're ripping they're ripping off the public yeah it's like healthy is expensive in the united states because like you can go to mcdonald's get like a what a cheeseburger for like a buck 19 but a salad's like five bucks but if you go to latin america or even any third world country all their chickens are free range the chicken goes around eating whatever it feels like whatever it gets this little beacon insects a field mice you know the chickens are like maybe worse than pigs chickens will eat any damn thing yeah they'll even eat stuff out of their own shit that yeah if you want if you want to clean up your your property definitely get chickens because he'll i when i joke go see oh yeah like the story your wife was telling about the decibels in that north carolina town oh i wall the town she is from prision for jane yeah yeah it's the town beside the virginia tech needed you need to go instead of a lawn moth um i didn't realize the baby's cry was really that high and decibels it's amazing yeah um but yeah healthy being healthy here in the united states is it's a racket it's like they they want people to be unhealthy they want people to be unhealthy physically but they want people to be unhealthy psychologically as well oh they want customers they they don't want they don't want patients that are cured they want cus they want ongoing customers like through your whole life yeah now well last topic of discussion because i can tell you're probably want to go because i can see you're i'm gonna tell you about right i have an allergy flare up but this is the last thing i want to talk about is i'm a very adamanty smoker because i've seen exactly what smoking does to people both my parents are former smokers both my parents smoked well over a pack a day sometimes like two two and a half packs a day for over 30 plus years okay so they both got really physically sick um before my dad died in 2016 a few years and before that in 2014 he was hospitalized i'll tell you this guy my dad he was looking really really bad he probably would not have weighed 100 pounds soaking wet and i'm just a little bit bigger than my dad like my dad was only about five foot nine about 150 pounds so looking at him and seeing him he looked like something straight out of the holocaust so the reason why he had to be hospitalized is right around the late late 2013 or 2014 i noticed he wasn't looking all that well and you know his hair was turning gray his beard was turning gray i mean he was aging rapidly but he looked sick like whenever you'd hear him cough it's like he was dying and finally i just said dad you're not looking all that great you look like you you look like you're a at that time he was about to turn six i said you are a 60 year old man but you look like you just turned 95 who's on his death bed did he have it i'm i'm getting good like you literally look like you're on death's bed get to the hospital now if not i'm gonna force you to go well he didn't listen so one day in march 2014 i get a call from his work and i had it was spring break when i was in college and i wanted to enjoy my spring break because i had a lot of days off from work during my spring break so i've been gaming the night before i didn't go to bed till about four o'clock in the morning so i my phone goes off at 10 o'clock in the morning and i look at the number i don't recognize the number i'm like oh who's calling me at 10 o'clock in the morning because no one calls me at this time let's work saying they need someone to come in so i pick up the phone and it's one of my dad's co-workers she said have you heard from your dad today i said no should i and what's going on he said well he hasn't showed up for work today and we send the sheriff's office out to his house to do a welfare check and no one's heard anything from him i said all right all right give me an hour i'll get dressed i'll go to his house i have a key i can get in i can see what's what so the sheriff's office meets me back at my dad's house and then when we get there one of the deputies asked you have a key i said yeah i got a key just give me a sec so i open up the door i unlock the door and they go in everyone's sheriff's office welfare check and then they're going through the house and then you know i'm just standing outside wondering is are they going to find him alive are they going to find him dead or what's going on so finally after about 10 seconds well the sheriff's deputy said well he's still alive he's back here in that back bedroom i said all right let me go in so i literally haul ass through the house to the back bedroom and i beat on my dad's door three times and i bust the door open i said dad this has gone on long enough your ass is going to the hospital today because i can look at you right now you are about to die that if i leave you here right now you will die and he's finding me saying no just give me one more day i'll feel better i'm like dad you don't have another day you have to go to the hospital they said if i leave you here right now you will die do you not comprehend that so he's putting up this fight with me and this and the other and finally said all right fine you want to sit there and be a stubborn little jackass and not go to the hospital said fine i'm going to go with these sheriff's deputies right here we're going to go to the courthouse we're going to emergency custody order and you're coming with me to the hospital the easy way or the hard way makes no difference to me because i'm walking out the door i hear him fine fine i'll go to the hospital so they get into the hospital and they perform x-rays on him and they find what's called a meningioenoma on the back of his lung i mean this thing is about this fucking big oh wow oh and we were like what is that like is he have lung cancer she said no it's not lung cancer it's benign it's not cancerous but it will have to be removed so my dad is saying no i don't want him to go surgery i'm like dad you have no choice you have to do this now he's fighting you about that yeah so i finally just say it's been a long stressful day i'm going to go home i will come back down i will see you tomorrow in the hospital but you're in the hospital do not fight these nurses if they want to draw your blood they want to give you meds they want to give you food just do it right here one time that you have acted out or not done they told you i will come down here and i will whoop your ass see maybe my dad you might be meaner than me because you're in the military but that still don't mean that i won't give you a good ass whooping if need be so i left he came i came back down the next day and he was doing all right once i got some fluids in him and he got some food in him you know he was all right they had to give him about seven ivy bags of fluids because he was that dehydrated that in his ivy then he had a drink like i think it was like over a gallon of fluid just to get him even remotely hydrating even then he was still dehydrated oh wow i mean when you can hear this guy talking you tell he was dying he was this oriented he was obviously not in his right state of mind it was the it was dehydration that was causing his sentence or it could have been because of lack of nutrition you know he literally was out of it so then finally they transport him down to where i live at now i live in kingsport tennessee but in the city over next for me they have johnson city medical center and that is a really big hospital here in eastern tennessee and accompanies the whole area encompasses um they take in people from east tennessee um south eastern kentucky southwest and virginia and um northwest north carolina i mean if you really are the sickest of the sick physically this is where you go so they transport him down to johnson city medical center and they remove the meninginoma and for three weeks he had to have a chest tube through this side of his chest into his lungs to drain all the fluid because when they removed it it caused a lot of fluid buildup in his lungs it had to all be drained so once he recovered he was going back to that he didn't stop he stopped smoking he said nope i am getting off smoking i am not doing that anymore because that's probably what caused it so he said that ultimately by him smoking for over 30 plus years pack and a half two packs a day it's probably what caused it they said you were very lucky this was not cancerous i was just gonna say that so they said you dodged a bullet by about this much you got by by the skin of your teeth he is very fortunate it wasn't lung cancer yeah but he died in 2016 but that was of a heart attack that was for other reasons um now my mom on the other hand when my dad was in the hospital my dad told my mom if you do not stop smoking this will be your fate too because for him that was a big awakening well my my mom did not listen and after my mom did not listen that following year early 2015 she came down with a really bad case of pneumonia i was about ready to have her hospitalized as well and after that my mom stopped smoking and she switched to this the vape i will go ahead and admit i'm the next smoker and i i probably have a reversible lung damage by smoking but then you know i was also exposed to a lot of secondhand smoke as i was growing up so i may get lung cancer it was a second and spoke is it's bad i was exposed to it when i was very young because my grandmother spoke from when she was 14 years old because it was cool back then to smoke was all the celebrities and movie stars smoke you know me right i had the cigarette holders and you know look to look glamorous but anyway yeah secondhand smoke i know people who died along cancer uh who had emphysema it goes on and on one of my best friend's father died from you know that my father had emphysema you know but my brother still changed smokes he yeses me to death yeah yeah james i know i have two young daughters i should quit for my daughter i should quit for them but they're saying yeah yeah yeah i said scott don't yes me to death anymore yeah i know you're not going to quit but getting to the main point of my argument i mean not to pull on anyone's heartstrings but i just i just want to put into perspective as to why i'm an anti smoker i gotta say this right here is if you want to have nicotine without lung cancer or you want to have something that's going to help reverse some of the lung damage and other damages caused by smoking this is the only way that that is going to happen but then yet this is demonized this is ostracized because of big tobacco could you oh yeah a lobbyist with big tobacco can i get now could you get a medicinal cannabis version you can in some states where that's legal you can but this i'll go and i'll tell you this is i've paid 50 bucks for this mod because you know for some reason i got the urge to want to smoke again but nowadays anymore i cannot stand the taste or the smell of a cigarette like if i even just smell like it on someone's breath or they smell like a walking astray it literally just gives me a bad sinus headache now now would cannabis oil produce a vapor in a in a vape apparatus probably yeah but this they've done long-term studies on this and um let me actually find that video since we're talking about i'll post it over here in the chat um it was a long-term study done by a research doctor in italy he is a world renowned doctor in the field of lung cancer and he did a seven-year study on the effects of vaping and to actually have a very conclusive study he took non smokers and smokers to see what vaping actually really does to help smokers quit doesn't actually help prepare lung damage because of smoking and that was one part of the study now the other part of the study was is vaping actually really worse than smoking so you have this dualistic study going on here and after seven years here's what the study concluded and i've read all the other study studies and i'll use this term loosely that vaping is worse than smoking and that um you know it causes popcorn lung it causes cancer doesn't it that's a bunch of bullshit because i would trust this guy's studies more than i would anyone else because he is a world renowned researcher and doctor in lung cancer and here's what his results had to say for themselves vaping is not healthy but it's also it's not also unhealthy vaping does not cause cancer vaping does not cause emphysema it does not cause lung damage in fact really depending upon the severity of lung damage it actually helps heal the lungs when they've been damaged that whenever they took smokers who have been smoking for quite a few years and they switched over the vape that once they started the vape they started clearing all that stuff up out of their lungs that their lungs actually healed better because there is an ingredient in vape juice um they have to have a certain percentage of propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin um propylene glycol is accepted in breathing treatments so like if you go to the hospital for a breathing treatment like you can't breathe and you know how it helps clear up all that stuff up out of your lungs yeah it's in this stuff too so that was the conclusion vaping really doesn't do anything it is safer than smoking but is it healthy no is it unhealthy no it's not like one of those whatever types sometimes it doesn't find that video but sometimes it does irritate people's eyes in the room i mean um not me because um ah here we are let me find why don't you why don't you put it on your facebook profile then i could share it with um holistic health talk all right um there we go i've posted it over there so you have to just click on that link and copy and paste that link yeah that's what their studies concluded vaping does not do a damn thing it does not cause pop popcorn lung it does not cause cancer it does not oh and this is another thing that anti-vapors like to try to push is that if you vape you will start smoking bullshit if vaping pushes people to smoke then it's doing a terrible job because a lot of smokers that i know being an smoker myself this prevented me from going back to smoking and in fact if anything this has probably helped me more than you could ever imagine because i have exercise induced asthma this is probably being um exposed to all the second hand smoke throughout the years yes i have exercise induced asthma and if i flare up really bad i take a big hit of this vape within within 10 seconds it's gone so my personal opinion and what i can tell just based on research of vape is i'm a vape rights advocate because this is the future of nicotine consumption this is what is helping people quit smoking and this is what is ultimately going to help reverse lung damage and any kind of other associated damage because of smoking and this should not be demonized and ostracized just because it's the new wave and it's undermining big tobacco okay just talking about that makes me so pissed that i'm gonna have to have a vape well this has been a very unique progressive discussions a bit of it was um well quite a bit of it every week is adlib and which which i like and and we but it was very well diversified we i'm glad that we touched upon alternative medicine as well as the politics that we normally discuss and um of course it's it's it's it's it's appropriate to have a special show for carl marx's 201st birthday right right uh it was just a great show so um there's just one more thing to add on i just i don't like the fact that douchebags use these like you know the ones that like the ones like to blow the big clouds and fill the room with the vape and blow it in people's face so i think that would be obnoxious about well i mean i do vape inside and sometimes i can't help this but sometimes why at my step son he'll he'll come in and he'll play in the vape clouds it doesn't choke him up in this and in fact and he likes some of the uh the ones that i've got because they actually do smell good like the one that i've got in my uh vape tank right now smoky mountain shine i got this at my favorite vape shop it's near the place i work in fact it's in the same um parking lot it's just right down the parking lot where i work called rocky top vapor and as i was going through all the different vape flavors this one is probably my favorite it's called peppermint menthol oh that's interesting it is strong i will tell you i wonder if they have a cinnamon clove like or a chai you know like they do i mean at this at this vape shop that's one thing i do like about vaping is whatever flavor you want with your nicotine you can get it and they also have varied amounts like this one is zero nicotine but i think the vape juice is actually taste better without nicotine in it because i do it for the flavor i like to have all the different flavors because like i'm going to go in there and have my other can of the nitro milk stout and sip on it for the rest of the night this is going to be a good complimentary to it peppermint menthol i will tell you it is strong cinnamon clove it it's not as harsh as a taste of like a cigarette but it will take some adjustment because let me point something else out to you and this this may kind of make you feel concerned yeah so get ready i have a smokers cough even though whenever i smoke i smoked less than a year i've only been exposed to second hand smoke listen to me it was only been exposed to second hand smoke majority of his life and smoked less than a year and then compared to someone who has smoked for 20 or 30 plus years you ready oh wow yeah that's from second hand smoke it used to be a lot worse but i think this is kind of helping well i'm sure they they probably do have a a spice blend like the one i mentioned which is cardamom ginger cinnamon clove you know so on and so forth and when i when i hear people that smoke whenever i hear him cough i'm like man you have a really bad smoker's cough you're gonna have to give that up well they don't know because they just hear they hear like the cough like you you get a cough up your lung out of your mouth no like if you listen i'll do it one more time listen there's a normal cough then there's a smoker's cough i've got one even though i smoked less than a year but was supposed to allow a second hand smoke listen to how different it is from a normal cough you ready hang on that's normal oh you notice the difference yeah sounds more disgusting it's more throaty sounding yeah it's yeah it's it sounds like something's going to be coming out of your mouth why in your lungs yeah listen yeah well you know what um yeah like i said it would be a lot lot worse yeah you're definitely um the the human body is amazing and how it it regenerates itself uh under the right conditions and you're smart enough to make sure the right conditions occur yeah but i do have to go because yeah i am not feeling my best but um we got we can probably do one more show when i move i'm gonna have to go on a bit of a hiatus because i have to find a new internet provider in the new apartment right right you know what i mean i gotta set things up but you know about how long of a hiatus it'll be well i hope the hiatus is not long because i'll be bored out of my mind i better get an internet provider as soon as possible well i mean for me when we when we lived in the townhouse that we lived at before we moved here um um it didn't take long like um for us we were maybe without internet two days tops no for two oh my god just two days i mean two days wasn't all that bad i mean i'll i'll find out what's in the area they told me horizon still might be in in edgewood or new jersey or or spectrum oh yeah like charter spectrum i never heard of spectrum internet is it is a charter spectrum no they nobody used the word charter they just said spectrum uh uh table and internet yeah then you'll they'll probably you might have getting what we've got because we've got charter it's called charter spectrum the company well spec yeah charter spectrum internet um they don't they used to have a technical support office here in Tennessee and northeast Tennessee i think they had it um they had it somewhere between Bristol and Kingsport because that's known as like the tri-cities area that you got Bristol which is divided between virginia and Tennessee and you got Kingsport and then you got john city it's basically like a triangle here's how it goes you got Bristol right here you got Kingsport here and then you got John city radius of my city is this part of the triangle and um they do have a it's not really a technical support office it's like um if you need to pay your bill or you need to return equipment you know they have that kind of office now i think all the technical support offices where you can like talk to someone on the phone or chat with someone on the internet i think they moved all their offices to Georgia and Alabama well let's say i stick with Verizon files i only want the internet because i want to instead of getting cable tv i want to try sling tv i've been seeing it don't don't try sling we just canceled our sling so it's not a replace it's not going to be a replacement for cable tv if you want the best one go with youtube tv oh youtube tv because guess what guess how much we pay a month for our youtube red or our youtube tv $55 a month and we get all our locals yeah but yeah but sling is advertising $15 a month $20 a month so they're full of shit yeah well those low packages you're not gonna get anything oh you're gonna get crap oh you're gonna get shit if you go that low yeah we've had different cable providers we've had we've had dish we've had charter we've had um sling we've had roku tv we've had all kinds and that's the one that we we really like we only pay 55 bucks a month for it youtube tv yeah but that's the only thing is um i mean it's all right but if i don't really watch tv all that much my wife is the tv watcher i'm not if i want to watch something i'll just pop on netflix or something so if i want if i want to watch let's say the history channel or the travel channel or um as far as i know it's on youtube red or yeah youtube tv i don't like you calling a youtube red yeah um um or the other one yeah any any of the popular cable channels or or cnn and listen to them flap their guns yeah i think that's nothing about modern day slavery and capitalism it doesn't give good tv you can't get good tv at a good price and it's just yeah you remember when um when a person can purchase a television set and actually watch television instead of being forced to get cable yeah remember that those days yeah then all of a sudden you were you couldn't watch tv at all until you got cable you can still do the antenna but in this area it's very hit or miss and the weather has a lot to do with wi-fi connections as well as um any anything requiring an antenna i mean if it's overcast and you're talking to somebody you hit a dead spot you know as opposed to having a clear sky um that's what happens uh uh oh people in the Philippines wow it's a poor country they have horrible internet connection speed they're all like sometimes they're all pixely and blurry and then they get clear and then they get blurry again oh yeah yeah i know exactly what you're talking about and the last thing and then i promise we'll go yeah power when you have competition trade over power that's why power costs are so high because because around here there's only one power provider aep oh so they they got you over a barrel yeah the monopoly is trying to be broken up but it is being fought tooth and nail i don't believe because eight well it's called apple action electric power but we just called aep around here for short people do not like aep because we had a really bad we only had one bad snowstorm down here um we got six inches of snow with an inch of ice underneath we were without power for over 24 hours wow and not good everything and well everything in the fridge went bad but thankfully we're able to keep everything that was in the freezer still good but just whenever you would get on the phone to talk with them it's just they're so incompetent if they're not so incompetent they're so rude so they gouged the hell out of everybody yeah yeah oh by the way my friend in Shanghai China really a really nice fast internet connection because everything is like like mine like having Verizon files so they must have the government in mainland China must provide pretty good internet speeds on always they banned they banned youtube and mainland china oh no she can't no she can't have a facebook profile or a youtube channel nor nor can she watch any of our videos she can't watch anything i feel i feel sorry sometimes she'll she'll send me nice videos of traditional chinese food you know someone making rice noodles from scratch and you know i'll i'll take the videos i'll put them together and i'll put it on my food group everything is food you know i i tell her i said yeah people love your videos you know just keep on sending me your videos and photos and you know of traditional chinese i think she like emails you them since you can't have facebook or anything like that i she'll she'll send it to me on she usually sends it to me on we chat because that's a chinese company where people instant message one another and they and they do video chatting so it's called we chat and i'll download them or for we chat and then i'll just simply i'll edit it put it together into one video and then upload it to facebook and uh some of them are quite interesting you know i mean i love chinese food and i can also eat uh chinese food all kinds of chinese food with chopsticks i can use chopsticks well uh i love sushi i'll eat damn you want to like no no because like i said i don't like fish or seafood are you not into seafood i mean i'll eat shrimp that's about it you what about well unagi is roasted eel that's that's a brackish water i've had eel and i've had calamari squid but i i just don't really like it you're not crazy about squid well it's just fish i cannot stand the taste or the smell and another reason why you know that old saying if it smells like fish have you a dish smells like cologne leave it alone i don't know what in the hell someone was thinking when they said that because i find the smell of fish very unappealing well fresh seafood will not smell or like ammonia or or that's bad fish that's rancid it'll actually be like fresh ocean air you there'll be no ammonia smell or no funky flavor i mean even when it's fresh seafood i still find the smell very unappealing now when i work with seafood for 10 years i i used to i fillet many trout for people you like trout i'll catch them but i won't eat them i used to butterfly fillet them with the head on where you know you open it up take the bone and guts out and it'll be like you open it up like a book yeah seasoning inside dry rub onions or whatever and then put toothpick the belly together put it right on the grill usually some people well some people put it on aluminum foil but i like to get the other grill for seafood with the little holes and you know and just do it up but uh you know there's a way to eat it i know freshwater fish is very bony but if you know how to cut it you can you can reduce the bones quite a bit actually it's funny you mentioned Chinese food i i got well i already ate half of it i i got a quart of uh wanton egg drop chicken soup for my cold i felt that chicken soup would be good i went to all these and i got organic chicken bone broth to have and they have chicken bone and you know people from way back used to boil the bones because it was it was a healthy food you know soup made from boiled bones the marrow was in there yeah has nutritional value then i read you and i'm like what how can this be nine grams of protein for for eight ounces of bone broth i says i then i looked at regular chicken broth and it was minuscule the amount of protein i go so i'm thinking is that is that much protein in in bone maybe but i don't know nine grams that i know an egg only has like eight grams of protein one egg yeah incredible but anyway yeah thank you and uh to to comrade marx comrade marx happy birthday happy birthday
