WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.879 The bok About AIRCD talk station Happy Friday maybe an 2 00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:07.400 extra special Happy an early appearance by all of our 3 00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:09.800 mutual friends. Briga McGown from the Hudson Institute and I 4 00:00:09.800 --> 00:00:14.599 hope you follow his podcast, It's charged community Conversations. He 5 00:00:14.679 --> 00:00:17.199 is an expert on energy policy. He's got an extensive 6 00:00:17.239 --> 00:00:20.519 background in that, and he was just in New York 7 00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.879 on an energy policy issues having a discussion with an 8 00:00:23.879 --> 00:00:27.000 Obama Harris side of the Ledger green new deal kind 9 00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:28.719 of crap kind of thing. Brig him, it's great having 10 00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.480 you in studio. You can find his organization online at 11 00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:36.560 Hudson dot or also a professor at Miami Universe. All 12 00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.520 that is correct, I try to be a left that 13 00:00:39.640 --> 00:00:41.479 a whole lot if whatever your whole background, will be 14 00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:43.679 doing a full hour of just talking about all that 15 00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:46.479 you've done over the course of your life. So just 16 00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:48.640 you know you do it. You do have the requisite 17 00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:52.600 skills and knowledge and expertise to speak on energy policy, which. 18 00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:53.759 Is why you were invited to New York in the 19 00:00:53.799 --> 00:00:56.000 first place. Well, thank you very much. It's an honor 20 00:00:56.039 --> 00:00:57.560 to be with you. Although I think this is probably 21 00:00:57.600 --> 00:00:59.479 the earliest appearance I've done yet. 22 00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:01.560 But good for you getting up every once in a 23 00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:04.760 while breaking you got to you gotta start your coffee earlier, though, 24 00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:07.760 don't wait until six oh six when we're here to 25 00:01:07.879 --> 00:01:11.319 start drinking your coffee, which you just did. Going anyhow, 26 00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:15.400 So what did you learn in New York? It is 27 00:01:15.519 --> 00:01:19.640 so obvious by the out loud statements she's made, as 28 00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:25.120 well as her background, her on the record expressions of 29 00:01:25.640 --> 00:01:28.959 concern over climate change or whatever. Kamala Harris is all in. 30 00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:31.959 Whether you can pin her down on banning fracking or not. 31 00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:34.959 That doesn't play well in Pennsylvania, as you know. But 32 00:01:35.519 --> 00:01:37.599 she seems to be all over the board. But in true, 33 00:01:37.719 --> 00:01:42.519 in point of fact, she embraces this stuff and the subsidies, 34 00:01:42.519 --> 00:01:45.040 and she broadly takes credit for the so called Green 35 00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:47.239 New Deal that cost us so many trillions of dollars. 36 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.480 Well, she does. And let's remember when she was President 37 00:01:50.680 --> 00:01:54.319 of the Senate. As the vice President, she cast a 38 00:01:54.359 --> 00:01:58.599 lot of tie breaking votes, including spending all this money 39 00:01:58.640 --> 00:02:01.680 on the Green New Deal known as the Inflation Reduction Act. 40 00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:05.120 Yeah yeah, and that's probably got to go down in 41 00:02:05.159 --> 00:02:10.879 history as the most inappropriately inaccurate name for any piece 42 00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:12.840 of legislation I know. They do it all the time. 43 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:14.479 But what the hell did that have to do with 44 00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:18.639 reducing inflation? It was an inflation inducing bill. 45 00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.360 Yes, it is, just it was just a massive spending 46 00:02:21.400 --> 00:02:23.719 bill in part which field a lot of this inflation 47 00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:24.759 we've been dealing with. 48 00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:28.280 Yeah, and of course the other component of this, and 49 00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.240 not too many people I think care as much about 50 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:33.599 it as I do. But you go all the way 51 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:36.319 back to Obama and number A one twenty three and 52 00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:40.080 Solindra all part of this you know, growing agenda. They 53 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:45.039 were given taxpayer dollars to support their good or service 54 00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:47.840 or whatever the hell they were providing, and they failed epically. 55 00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:51.319 That was government picking the winners and losers to the 56 00:02:51.360 --> 00:02:54.199 exclusion of maybe hundreds of other companies doing what those 57 00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:58.439 two companies were planning on doing. But how is it 58 00:02:58.479 --> 00:03:01.439 that they won the contracts and got the American taxpayer 59 00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:04.520 dollars and ended up serving as a great illustration of 60 00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.800 why that is a terrible thing. Market forces would have 61 00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:11.960 allowed competition to be selected based upon the well, the 62 00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.120 merit of whatever they were doing. You know, Oh that 63 00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:16.759 actually works, Let's go with that one. 64 00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:20.360 You know, absolutely, you know, and you've just pointed out 65 00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:24.599 something that's that's very important. If it's a terrible idea. 66 00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.840 If it's not gonna work, it's not gonna work. That's 67 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:31.479 the whole point. If businesses either succeed or fail based 68 00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:34.159 on the product or service they deliver that people want 69 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.479 at a cost competitive price. If you do that, and 70 00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.800 I'm a small business guy, you stay in business. You 71 00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:43.960 don't do that, you go out. Except when the government says, oh, 72 00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:46.719 that's okay, well here here's here's one hundred million. You're 73 00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:48.919 still going to go out of business. It's just going 74 00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:50.000 to take a little bit longer. 75 00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:51.520 Right. You got to burn through the one hundred million, 76 00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:52.879 and then you close shop. Right. 77 00:03:53.240 --> 00:03:53.560 Well. 78 00:03:53.599 --> 00:04:00.280 And the other point is, even with all of these 79 00:04:00.439 --> 00:04:04.319 incentives that government is pouring into, like, for example, the 80 00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:07.439 electric vehicle industry, you can lead a horse to water, 81 00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.800 but you can't make them drink. Brother, if you don't 82 00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:13.080 want to buy an EV, a government can't make you 83 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:16.639 buy an EV unless the government, through its actions, bans 84 00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:20.000 the internal combustion engine, which through CAFE standards, is their 85 00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:24.279 stated goal. You can't have I mean, if they take 86 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.360 emissions and you know the laws of physics and the 87 00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:28.759 reality of the internal combustion engine. There's only so much 88 00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:33.480 you can remove in terms of the tailpipe. But it's 89 00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:37.199 a preferable and more efficient and I would say more 90 00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.600 affordable choice to buy an internal combustion engine. 91 00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:44.439 Well, it absolutely is. And if we took these folks 92 00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:48.240 at their word, and let's just all pretend that carbon 93 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:50.000 is the enemy of the Earth and we have to 94 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:50.959 get rid of it all. 95 00:04:50.759 --> 00:04:55.040 Overnight, suspending reality to do that. But okay, we're playing 96 00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:55.800 a game and pretend. 97 00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:59.639 Okay, well, then you say, look, our goal is to 98 00:04:59.720 --> 00:05:01.720 red use the amount of carbon we're putting in the air, 99 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.759 and we have to be cleaner. Okay, Well, then let 100 00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:07.959 industry figure out how to do that, and you can 101 00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:11.720 use different types of fuels while still using the internal 102 00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.120 combustion engine to achieve that goal. 103 00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:19.480 Yes, through negation of let's say carbon output at oh, 104 00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:23.480 I don't know, a natural gas plant and replacing it 105 00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.920 with you know what's come and Brigham a nuclear plant. 106 00:05:27.399 --> 00:05:29.519 There we go. You're going to remove all the carbon 107 00:05:29.639 --> 00:05:31.839 and it's a minimal amount from a natural gas plant 108 00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.279 compared to the cold days, right, but you get rid 109 00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:35.839 of that, and that would allow us to keep our 110 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:40.040 internal combustion engines because overall, you've reduced that carbon output. 111 00:05:40.319 --> 00:05:41.199 That doesn't matter. 112 00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:44.800 That is that's absolutely correct, and I think we all 113 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:50.000 want cleaner air. And there are there are harmful emissions 114 00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:56.199 that can cause asthma or increase allergies, cause breathing problems. 115 00:05:56.639 --> 00:05:59.160 Those are the things we should be concentrating on. But 116 00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:04.079 eaving that aside for a minute, nuclear it's where we 117 00:06:04.160 --> 00:06:07.160 need to be. And you know, if we stacked up 118 00:06:07.240 --> 00:06:09.839 all of the nuclear waste, which some people complain about, 119 00:06:10.639 --> 00:06:12.920 it would fit on a football field less than twelve 120 00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:17.759 feet high. I said, from the entire country since nineteen seventy. 121 00:06:17.439 --> 00:06:19.920 Whatever, all of it. And let me go ahead and 122 00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:24.079 say this out loud because of my submariner friend Cribbage 123 00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.120 Mike is out listening. He will also be the first 124 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.199 person to point out that I think all of the 125 00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:32.000 ships in the Navy have been nuclear powered since what 126 00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:34.920 the late nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties. They haven't had any 127 00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:35.879 problems with any of. 128 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:39.680 Them, well, all of the submarines and all the aircraft. Yeah, 129 00:06:39.759 --> 00:06:43.399 all the aircraft carriers since the late sixties, early seventies. 130 00:06:43.399 --> 00:06:47.839 Some of the smaller ships know, but they're actually powered 131 00:06:47.879 --> 00:06:51.040 by aircraft jetting since no kidding. 132 00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:53.399 Yeah yeah, well but it works. 133 00:06:53.639 --> 00:06:56.839 It does work, and so we've got this new concept 134 00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:00.160 and Navy folks like myself will kind of snicker and 135 00:07:00.199 --> 00:07:05.519 go out, it's not really new. Small modular nuclear reactors SMRs. Well, 136 00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:09.000 that's what the Navy's been putting in ships and submarines 137 00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:10.560 for four decades. 138 00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:14.160 Right right, Yeah, yeah, I mean there's obviously the aircraft 139 00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:17.160 carriers are not run on a fuel supply that's built 140 00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:19.639 on something the size of three mile island. You know, 141 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:23.279 it's small, it's compact, and it works. It works, and 142 00:07:24.079 --> 00:07:27.040 they have more than one in some cases. But what 143 00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:29.399 we want to do, and this is where I have 144 00:07:29.480 --> 00:07:31.879 to admit, the nuclear industry has been its own worst 145 00:07:32.000 --> 00:07:35.800 enemy at times because every reactor that we have operating 146 00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:40.199 in this country, no two are alike. That's the problem 147 00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:42.879 with the costs, or that's what creates the cost problems. 148 00:07:43.160 --> 00:07:43.639 It is. 149 00:07:43.879 --> 00:07:47.720 And then we have a federal agency, nuclear regulatory agency 150 00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.360 that's spent its entire life trying not to permit a 151 00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:55.680 react Their job is to permit no nuclear license. 152 00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:57.800 These things enemy, there's no question about it. 153 00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:01.480 So the idea is we start to carbon copying these 154 00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:03.720 things and they are pretty small. I mean they're they're 155 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:05.920 not going to fit inside this room, they're not going 156 00:08:05.959 --> 00:08:10.120 to fit inside your garage. But comparing to large scale 157 00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:13.199 they are smaller. So the idea is you replicate these 158 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:18.240 things one after another. The design is licensed, so you 159 00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.399 don't have to go through all that each time, and 160 00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:22.560 they're plug and play. You can even know you need 161 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:24.319 more than one. Okay here three. 162 00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:28.160 Right next to each other, right or spread around different 163 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.639 geographical areas among any population center. At the bottom line 164 00:08:31.720 --> 00:08:35.559 is they're much easier to build and one size can 165 00:08:35.720 --> 00:08:37.720 fit all just depending on you know, if you got 166 00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:41.039 the land and the I guess the locations swell to 167 00:08:41.039 --> 00:08:42.759 to the power lines. But you know, if you're shutting 168 00:08:42.759 --> 00:08:45.559 down a gas or a prior coal fire plant, you 169 00:08:45.639 --> 00:08:47.440 just build it right there on next to that space 170 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:49.600 and all your transmission lines are right there. 171 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.440 It's all set up, and you know you can do that. 172 00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:55.840 And I've kind of wondered, like I remember down in Moscow, Ohio. Yeah, 173 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:57.480 just put one there. 174 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:01.200 Absolutely, just don't do the did in Fukushima build it 175 00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:02.399 in a tsunami zone. 176 00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:06.200 I mean that the plants problem, that was a people 177 00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:09.960 engineering problem. Yeah, Like who's the idiot who chose this? 178 00:09:10.080 --> 00:09:10.639 What do they want? 179 00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:13.080 A scenic landscape so they could look out over the 180 00:09:13.080 --> 00:09:14.759 ocean when they went to work. Oh, by the way, 181 00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:17.159 we do have tsunamis in Japan and that's in the 182 00:09:17.200 --> 00:09:19.320 tsunami zone. Do you guys ever consider that might want 183 00:09:19.320 --> 00:09:22.000 to build it a little higher? Yeah, it's crazy, It 184 00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:24.320 is crazy. All right, Well, I'll tell you what. Let's 185 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:26.440 stop here because I want to find out because when 186 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:28.799 you're at New York it was sort of a it's 187 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:31.519 an energy policy discussion, with you taking what I would 188 00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:36.440 consider the rational approach and the Obama Harris spokesperson going 189 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:39.519 with pushing the the green. I want to get what 190 00:09:39.600 --> 00:09:42.600 their take was on the concept of nuclear because of course, 191 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:46.000 you know, when the alphabets and the Googles and the 192 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:49.440 Metas of the world decide their artificial intelligence centers can 193 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:52.440 be run by and will be run by nuclear power, 194 00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:54.720 and no one in the federal government saying no, you 195 00:09:54.840 --> 00:09:57.320 cannot do that. I guess it just depends on who 196 00:09:57.399 --> 00:10:01.480 you are whether you get good efficient, carbon free power 197 00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:05.159 Er six fifteen fifty five K see the talk station 198 00:10:05.320 --> 00:10:08.519 plumb tight plumbing, plumbing done right.

Chuck ingramon fifty five KARS the 245 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:19.519 talk station. 246 00:12:23.080 --> 00:12:26.080 Six twenty fifty five KRCIT the talk station, Brighamcallan in studio. 247 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:28.759 Love the work that Brigham does. You can follow Brigham 248 00:12:28.799 --> 00:12:33.480 and check out his podcast, Regularly Charged Conversation Authority on 249 00:12:33.639 --> 00:12:35.960 energy policy. Of course, we were talking about nuclear being 250 00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:38.600 a part of it. Going back to your debate in 251 00:12:38.720 --> 00:12:41.840 New York, your you know, sanity versus what I would 252 00:12:41.879 --> 00:12:44.279 argue is insanity. Did have someone who is a you 253 00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:47.440 know sort of Abama Harris cut from the Green New 254 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:51.799 Deal whole cloth there. What's that person's reaction to the 255 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.679 just just looking exclusively here at the idea of nuclear power. 256 00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:02.480 Well, actually he didn't talk about nuclear per se, but 257 00:13:02.799 --> 00:13:08.000 what he did say was that he thinks Harris will 258 00:13:08.279 --> 00:13:13.120 double down with two priorities for all of our infrastructure, 259 00:13:13.159 --> 00:13:18.879 for energy infrastructure, for transportation infrastructure. And he said it's 260 00:13:18.919 --> 00:13:21.159 going to be based on two guiding principles, and you 261 00:13:21.200 --> 00:13:23.200 can probably guess what they are, Brian, But number one 262 00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:26.519 is climate change and number two is equity. 263 00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:33.919 Okay, let's see here equity. How does equity apply in 264 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.720 the area of energy policy. 265 00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:41.559 Yeah, well, energy is racist, Energy is discriminating. Energy is 266 00:13:42.120 --> 00:13:45.799 bad because some people can afford to have it and 267 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:49.279 others can't. I don't know. 268 00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:52.000 I mean, well, that I guess lies in the face 269 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.480 of the marxis ieteology, the idea that if there is 270 00:13:54.519 --> 00:13:56.639 a good or service that you need, that you should 271 00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:58.879 pay for it. Do they want to provide Is it 272 00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:00.000 free energy for all? 273 00:14:01.039 --> 00:14:05.960 Well, I think it is removing what they see as polluting, 274 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:12.480 nasty hydrocarbon power plants from people and neighborhoods that are disadvantaged. 275 00:14:13.159 --> 00:14:18.440 They are, I think, saying behind the lines, without behind 276 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:21.799 the scene, without saying it, that energy is going to 277 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:25.759 be more expensive if we go their way, and so 278 00:14:25.799 --> 00:14:27.759 we're all going to have to share, We're going to 279 00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:30.759 have to subsidize. You've probably seen in California already there's 280 00:14:30.799 --> 00:14:33.840 a wealth tax on energy for people that make too 281 00:14:33.879 --> 00:14:38.000 much money. Your bill goes up, and I think that's 282 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:44.159 part of it. But roads and bridges are apparently unfair also. 283 00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:50.120 So what I mean des bye sating that they're unfair. 284 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:56.200 You can't continue with the idea of commerce and industry 285 00:14:56.399 --> 00:14:58.919 and the free flow of goods and services in the 286 00:14:58.960 --> 00:15:02.759 country without roads and bridges and an infrastructure like that. 287 00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:08.320 I guess I'm you know, these platitudes about equity or whatever. 288 00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:12.639 What was he offering by way of a direction or 289 00:15:12.960 --> 00:15:16.440 what would a Harris administration do to eradicate these so 290 00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:20.480 called well lack of equity or the fact that a 291 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:22.000 road is racist in some way. 292 00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:24.200 Yeah, you know, he didn't go into and that's the 293 00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:26.360 other party. They don't They don't really go into it. 294 00:15:26.399 --> 00:15:28.080 They have an answer to you. And if we look 295 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:31.679 at the campaign, you know, as you mentioned earlier in 296 00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:34.440 the previous segment, Harris has been very careful not to 297 00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:37.440 talk about anything. But she she can't talk about anything 298 00:15:37.480 --> 00:15:40.120 because anything that she if she said what her policies 299 00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:44.600 really were, nobody would be buying. But part of this 300 00:15:44.679 --> 00:15:48.320 has to do with this sort of I don't know. 301 00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.600 New York's a great example. They think the whole country 302 00:15:51.639 --> 00:15:53.679 is like New York. We need more transit, we mean, 303 00:15:53.799 --> 00:15:56.480 we need more commuter rail, we need more bike paths. 304 00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:59.639 We need this, we need that, And it is a 305 00:15:59.639 --> 00:16:02.600 percon option that differs from the Republicans that believe that 306 00:16:02.840 --> 00:16:08.200 the energy and the transportation infrastructure is there to enable commerce. 307 00:16:08.279 --> 00:16:12.519 The Republicans talk about rivers of commerce freely flowing, removing 308 00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:16.200 inefficiencies from the system. The just in time inventory that 309 00:16:16.440 --> 00:16:19.759 we created in the US is really the backbone of 310 00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:23.879 the economy, and I think under a Trump world, you're 311 00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:29.000 going to see these go back to We're going to 312 00:16:29.039 --> 00:16:31.720 go back to hard merits. I think under a Trump administration, 313 00:16:31.799 --> 00:16:34.279 where money is going to be put where it serves 314 00:16:34.279 --> 00:16:38.960 the country the best and helps grow the economy. 315 00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:41.480 Which is beneficial to everyone. 316 00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:44.960 Yeah, because the whole point of highways is to get 317 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.320 goods and people to market, and goods to market and 318 00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:52.720 people to Grandma's house and mobility. It's it's really that simple. 319 00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:55.360 Well bring them, let's we'll bring them back here. Because 320 00:16:56.480 --> 00:16:59.679 as to the free flow of goods and services on 321 00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:05.000 the highways and byways, we typically rely on this semi 322 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:08.000 tractor trailer. I'm kind of wondering what the green guy 323 00:17:08.039 --> 00:17:09.880 had to say about that, because I know there's a 324 00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:12.960 big push to go with semis and from all accounts 325 00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:18.200 and everything I've read that is totally totally irresponsible and 326 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.359 impossible and extraordinarily costly. Will pause more at break him 327 00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:24.160 down from the Hudson ins too. Find him online at 328 00:17:24.200 --> 00:17:27.279 Hudson dot org. After I mentioned John Ryan Prestige in 329 00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:30.680 Tears Interiors, getting run in touch with John for kitchen remodeling. 330 00:17:31.799 --> 00:17:33.559 It's all he does, really, I mean, for more than 331 00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:36.839 thirty years, John has done almost exclusively kitchens. He's had 332 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:39.079 a couple of other projects, and they're probably from folks 333 00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:41.279 who had him in to do the kitchens, like oh yeah, 334 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:43.680 can you do you know whatever, the bathroom or something. 335 00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:46.799 But in any event, kitchens are his specialty and he 336 00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:48.400 is a true partner when it comes to a kitchen 337 00:17:48.400 --> 00:17:51.200 remodeling process, from an initial design all the way through 338 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:56.000 final installation. John keeps the machine well oiled, one stop 339 00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:58.200 chopping when it comes with John. You have something you 340 00:17:58.240 --> 00:18:00.400 want to change, call John you're waiting for you want 341 00:18:00.400 --> 00:18:01.720 to know when the crews are going to be there. 342 00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:03.799 John will tell you. John will arrange for the cruise. 343 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:06.599 John will make sure that everything's done to your satisfaction. 344 00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:09.079 And I recommend strongly when you're sitting down with John 345 00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:11.440 talking about the future of your kitchen. Listen to what 346 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:14.039 he has to say. He's got great ideas. With so 347 00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.599 many years experience, he's seen, you know, bad things that 348 00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:21.039 didn't work out, you know, kitchens that he's come into 349 00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:23.720 that had problems to start with that people want to eradicate. 350 00:18:24.480 --> 00:18:27.920 Storage solutions. He's got great storage solution ideas. So we 351 00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:30.559 took him up on pretty much everything he recommended us. 352 00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:34.160 We love our kitchen and you'll love your kitchen.
