Welcome brand new week I hate it 21 00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:17.159 one morning men say that. It's like, I mean, a 22 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.000 brand new weekend, and I've got earphones and I can't 23 00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:23.480 hear anything in test test I've got oh, we got 24 00:01:23.519 --> 00:01:27.079 the the earphones with the tin the tinfoil like you 25 00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:29.439 made when you were a kid, and you would set 26 00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:31.280 up an intercom that you could talk to your best 27 00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:33.840 friend at the house next door. Well, that's what I've got. 28 00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:36.799 It's a special challenge. Do you hear an edge in 29 00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:40.400 my voice? Pay no attention to it. Just pay attention 30 00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:43.799 to the words. I had the best weekend. There are 31 00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:47.200 two reasons for this. And I hope you had a well, 32 00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:48.840 I don't care if you had the best weekend. But 33 00:01:48.879 --> 00:01:51.000 I had a great weekend. And here's the weekend I had. 34 00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:58.519 My wife and children were not home any questions, and 35 00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:03.159 then they're not going to be home all week. And 36 00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:05.480 then I did what I wanted to do. Now I'm 37 00:02:05.480 --> 00:02:07.480 going to give you an example. Maybe you can relate 38 00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:11.280 to this. Maybe you can share this. When I was 39 00:02:11.319 --> 00:02:14.000 in a room and I wanted to go to a 40 00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:17.840 different room, I stood up and I walked to that room, 41 00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:23.639 like what I know, it's insane. Nobody said did you 42 00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:26.719 leave anything? Did you leave any cups in the TV room? 43 00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.919 Are there any cups in the TV room? For some reason, 44 00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.840 the inventory on the cups dominates my wife's thinking. It 45 00:02:34.960 --> 00:02:39.560 is completely changed from our honeymoon. Now it's did you 46 00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:42.360 leave anything in the TV room? Is there anything in 47 00:02:42.400 --> 00:02:45.400 there that I'll need to pick up later. You know 48 00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:49.319 how this goes. You've seen this transcript your entire life. 49 00:02:49.879 --> 00:02:53.439 Your mother shared it with you, your wife has shared 50 00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.879 it with you. If you made that mistake. Every time. 51 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:58.159 When I was a kid, we were in the car 52 00:02:58.159 --> 00:03:01.879 with my grandfather. Every time on a Saturday we went 53 00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:05.520 by a church and there was a wedding four thirty 54 00:03:05.520 --> 00:03:08.159 on a Saturday afternoon. My grandfather would always say the 55 00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:12.960 same thing, Go another mistake, That's all he'd say, without 56 00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:17.520 any extrapolation, without any comment. It was like another mistake, 57 00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:21.960 and there it is. And here's the best part of 58 00:03:22.000 --> 00:03:25.560 that story. I have a happy marriage. This is I 59 00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:27.919 have a good marriage, and I'm delighted when they're all 60 00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:33.280 away for a week. They're down with her sister and 61 00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:37.639 the dreaded brother in law. The dreaded brother in law. 62 00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:45.639 I watch something in this time alone that I don't 63 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:48.639 binge watch. I view people who binge watch TV shows. 64 00:03:48.639 --> 00:03:51.960 As week. I watch an episode and then I stop, 65 00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.319 and then I do something constructive, like go into the kitchen, 66 00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:58.159 and then a day or two later, I'll watch the 67 00:03:58.199 --> 00:04:01.120 next episode. And in the next episode, but this time, 68 00:04:01.840 --> 00:04:05.599 I see this series and I watched the first episode 69 00:04:05.639 --> 00:04:09.879 and I'm like, oh my god, this is incredible, and 70 00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:12.240 then the next one and I binge watched. I would 71 00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.560 binge watch all eight episodes of this particular series. That 72 00:04:16.759 --> 00:04:22.439 was like, WHOA never saw anything this great for me. 73 00:04:23.160 --> 00:04:25.800 It may not be perfect for you, but I think 74 00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:29.920 you'll have a good time. It's called Star City. You 75 00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:37.040 may recall that Russia had a Cape Canaverral. Russia had 76 00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:39.879 a Cape Kennedy, and it was called Star City. That's 77 00:04:39.879 --> 00:04:43.000 where all of their rockets went off from. That's where 78 00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:46.120 they are astronauts and the teams that built the rockets worked. 79 00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:51.680 It was in one isolated place, much like Florida, and 80 00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:55.279 it was called Star City. This is about an alternate 81 00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:59.600 history where the Russians got to the Moon first. All right, 82 00:04:59.639 --> 00:05:03.240 you've that series I was called something Beyond Space or something. 83 00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:08.040 I don't know, but this was different. This was Russia 84 00:05:08.079 --> 00:05:11.560 beat us to the moon. And this series is about 85 00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:15.600 what happened after that at Star City to the Russians, 86 00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:20.000 what happened next in the Russian space program. And it's 87 00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:23.199 not about getting into space. It's not about all of 88 00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:26.560 the challenges getting into space. It's about living at Star 89 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:29.720 City Now. I always thought that was a better name 90 00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:31.879 than Cape Canaveral. I always thought that was a better 91 00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:34.560 name than Cape Kennedy. I thought, wow, star City, that 92 00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:38.000 is pretty cool. I watched all eight episodes and it 93 00:05:38.439 --> 00:05:41.680 was stunning. Do we have Wyatt? 94 00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:42.279 No? 95 00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:44.720 Is there a reason we don't have? Whyatt? Is it 96 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:51.720 a new phone system to Canada? What is the problem there? Well, 97 00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:57.079 just keep calling, just keep calling, radio show, live, radio show. 98 00:05:57.199 --> 00:06:02.040 Walter's talking away. Probably should just keep not talking to 99 00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.240 each other. Just trying to get Wyatt. I know I'm insane. 100 00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:11.120 I want you to hear from Wyatt Sharp, who joins 101 00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.040 us at the beginning of every Monday morning show, Sharp 102 00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:16.800 as hell. He happens to be a senior in high 103 00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:20.800 school who sounds better than anybody on this radio network. 104 00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:25.000 He's a really smart guy, but he's also a shockingly 105 00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:27.680 good broadcaster. I'm very nervous. Ah, He's about putting him 106 00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:30.839 on because he does sound better than I do, and 107 00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:33.800 that is a challenge. No, I didn't mean it that way. 108 00:06:33.959 --> 00:06:36.240 It's you know what I'm talking about anyway, So it 109 00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:38.319 star City. Now, get a load of what this is. 110 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:45.360 We get to see what the Soviet Union worked like 111 00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:47.439 at the height of the Cold War, at the very 112 00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:51.160 height of their power sixty sixty one, sixty two sixty three, 113 00:06:51.600 --> 00:06:54.240 when krus Jeff was in charge and then Breshnef was 114 00:06:54.279 --> 00:07:00.279 in charge. It was like really hardcore Russian and we 115 00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:03.839 get to see how it operated in ways that we're terrifying. 116 00:07:05.079 --> 00:07:10.199 Their spy system way advance compared to ours, their military 117 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:14.079 internal operations way advance compared to ours. And if it's 118 00:07:14.120 --> 00:07:17.279 an alternate history as to what happened after they got 119 00:07:17.279 --> 00:07:20.160 to the moon first, how did they deal with it? 120 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:23.839 What was fascinating is what happened to us after we 121 00:07:23.879 --> 00:07:26.560 got to the moon first. And we'll talk about that. 122 00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:29.600 Do you have him now? Guys? Do you have him now? 123 00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:31.120 Could I talk to him? Are you just going to 124 00:07:31.240 --> 00:07:35.079 keep talking to him? This is he that charming to you? 125 00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:35.519 Ay? 126 00:07:35.680 --> 00:07:38.319 Yea, yeah, yeah yea. I'll tell you more about Star 127 00:07:38.399 --> 00:07:40.279 City in seconds, But right now I want to talk 128 00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:43.519 about Whyatt Sharp. Welcome to the other side of midnight, Wyatt. 129 00:07:43.759 --> 00:07:45.639 Were they having a chat with you? 130 00:07:47.319 --> 00:07:47.519 Ah? 131 00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:50.519 You know it's the great Canadian cell service, I think 132 00:07:50.600 --> 00:07:53.920 is the problem? 133 00:07:54.079 --> 00:08:00.000 Yeah, it's not funny. You have updates for us? Whyt 134 00:08:00.480 --> 00:08:04.040 runs a YouTube channel that's terrific. He also happens to 135 00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:08.399 be a senior in high school, has booked amazing guests 136 00:08:08.439 --> 00:08:12.879 like Hillary Clinton, and has a has a real gift, 137 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:14.720 like a real gift. You're going to use this to 138 00:08:14.720 --> 00:08:16.800 get into Harvard. I know you will. So what's your news? 139 00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:18.240 What what are you doing? 140 00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:20.800 This week? In PARTE? 141 00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:24.319 The Nancy Guthrie stuff has really continued to get a 142 00:08:24.319 --> 00:08:27.600 lot of attention. After my interview with the PMA County 143 00:08:27.600 --> 00:08:30.720 Sheriff Chris Nanos, there's been a lot of developments in 144 00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:34.200 the case. They release some ransom notes, and in my 145 00:08:34.279 --> 00:08:36.799 interview with him with this a little bit last week, 146 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:40.039 it's been kind of expanded upon. They confirm that they're 147 00:08:40.120 --> 00:08:45.039 using something called genetic genealogy to basically connect family members 148 00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:49.120 to the potential suspect and an effort and make their 149 00:08:49.159 --> 00:08:51.840 investigation move along a little bit faster because people are 150 00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:54.840 getting pretty frustrated at the pace of the investigation. 151 00:08:57.639 --> 00:08:58.480 What does that mean? 152 00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:03.879 Well, basically, what is genealogy? 153 00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:04.039 No? 154 00:09:04.519 --> 00:09:09.159 What what is the pace? When do they expect some conclusion? 155 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:11.039 Are they happy with the pace? 156 00:09:12.559 --> 00:09:12.759 Yeah? 157 00:09:12.799 --> 00:09:14.399 I think That's what I'm getting at is that they're 158 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:17.720 definitely not. And it's not so much even they're frustrated 159 00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:20.120 with the pace of the investigation. So much is the 160 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:24.000 fact that the FBI director Cash Bettel, for example, said 161 00:09:24.279 --> 00:09:26.799 just this past week that they were withheld from the 162 00:09:26.840 --> 00:09:29.279 scene for too long and that the sheriff of was 163 00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:32.919 didn't allow the FBI to use Quantico to. 164 00:09:33.159 --> 00:09:36.279 Go through a lot of the DNA in various labs. 165 00:09:36.120 --> 00:09:39.000 Quanticos, of course, the FBI's premier. 166 00:09:38.759 --> 00:09:41.159 Lab that they use for you know. 167 00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:44.679 Most of these types of high profile investigations. But the 168 00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:49.360 local officials there refused, and the FBI attributes that refusal to, 169 00:09:49.960 --> 00:09:53.120 you know, the slowed pace of this investigation. 170 00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:59.320 Why could a local sheriff prevent the FBI from becoming involved? 171 00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:01.440 How does that work? I would have assumed the FBI 172 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:02.799 had priority. 173 00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:06.279 You know, that's a great question, and it's one that 174 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:08.960 a lot of people are asking, But it's actually the 175 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:14.399 state officials that can prevent the FBI from accessing the scene, 176 00:10:14.399 --> 00:10:16.240 and that's exactly what they did. 177 00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:17.639 You also have I've. 178 00:10:17.480 --> 00:10:20.039 Been seeing online some people saying, well, why can't the 179 00:10:20.080 --> 00:10:22.879 federal government just remove the sheriff. 180 00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:26.440 And that goes back to the fact that in Arizona. 181 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:29.559 They have a democratic governor and Chris Nanos, the sheriff 182 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.799 there is a Democrat, So you know, even though the 183 00:10:32.799 --> 00:10:35.200 sheriff is the lead investigator, there's still a lot of 184 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:36.879 partisan politics at play. 185 00:10:37.279 --> 00:10:41.039 Well. Plus, isn't the sheriff elected there, not appointed? 186 00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:42.559 Correct? 187 00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:46.639 Yes, therefore it'd be impossible to remove the sheriff he 188 00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:49.200 was appointed. They'd have a better shot. But what I 189 00:10:49.240 --> 00:10:55.080 don't understand is why, Well you don't have this answer, 190 00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:57.720 but why would they delay? Why wouldn't they want all 191 00:10:57.759 --> 00:10:59.919 the help that they could possibly get. Is it just 192 00:11:00.039 --> 00:11:02.519 so that they'd get the credit? Is that it so 193 00:11:02.600 --> 00:11:04.600 the sheriff could solve the case and get the credit 194 00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:05.559 without help. 195 00:11:07.200 --> 00:11:09.519 I think that's definitely part of it, because I think, again, 196 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:12.200 going back to the politics, he wants to be, you know, 197 00:11:12.279 --> 00:11:16.399 the poster child so to speak, for solving the investigation, 198 00:11:16.519 --> 00:11:19.399 and if the FBI comes in and solves the case, 199 00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.559 then you know, it might take some of it. 200 00:11:21.519 --> 00:11:22.159 Away from him. 201 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:25.679 But I will also say that part of the problem 202 00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:28.720 is that pe mccounty, the area where this is happening, 203 00:11:29.039 --> 00:11:32.720 they have not dealt with high profile investigations like this ever, 204 00:11:32.960 --> 00:11:36.279 not even just recently, but Ever, the last high profile 205 00:11:36.360 --> 00:11:38.840 thing that happened in p mccounty was the shooting of 206 00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:41.840 gab Giffords, and that was over ten years ago. And 207 00:11:41.919 --> 00:11:43.879 so I think a lot of it I attribute to 208 00:11:44.080 --> 00:11:47.399 just not really a whole lot of expertise in that area, 209 00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:50.480 even down to you know, a lot of the not 210 00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:52.519 just the sheriff himself, but a lot of the people 211 00:11:52.519 --> 00:11:55.240 who make up the office of the sheriff. Through no 212 00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:57.279 fault of their own, this is something that really they 213 00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:01.200 weren't prepared for because of the sure size of their community. 214 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:05.519 You and I have never heard of Puma County, Arizona before. 215 00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.840 This must be a very real, very rural, desert oriented, 216 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:15.720 abandoned community, and it's curious that a woman with those 217 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.120 means would have lived in such a pathetic place. 218 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:22.480 Yeah, I mean, I just think for her, I mean, 219 00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:23.120 her house. 220 00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:24.919 Is very nice. I think a lot of people I 221 00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:28.080 live in a very rural area, hence the self service sometimes. 222 00:12:28.759 --> 00:12:32.000 But I think that for a lot of people who 223 00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:35.879 know Nancy Guttri, it was actually just them trying to 224 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.840 map out how is it that someone would even know 225 00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:43.320 how to get to her house because of how rural 226 00:12:43.360 --> 00:12:46.879 and remote her house actually is. And that's why in 227 00:12:46.919 --> 00:12:50.320 the very beginning of the investigation, as with many investigations 228 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:54.519 of this nature, you have people turning to the immediate 229 00:12:54.600 --> 00:12:57.679 people who knew her as kind of the first primary 230 00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:01.879 suspects in the investigation because of how rual and inaccessible 231 00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:03.159 her house actually was. 232 00:13:03.879 --> 00:13:06.919 Yeah, my first thought was the brother, the brother, the 233 00:13:06.960 --> 00:13:10.000 son in law who looks like resputant. The son in 234 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:13.759 laws looks terrifying. That was my first thought. I assume 235 00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:18.039 they have they have blocked him out and he isn't it. 236 00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:18.840 He's been ruled out. 237 00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:20.320 He's been ruled out. 238 00:13:20.440 --> 00:13:22.519 All right. Yeah, there are other stories you guys are 239 00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:23.360 working on tonight. 240 00:13:24.759 --> 00:13:25.039 Yeah. 241 00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:27.080 The other one that I found and we've hindered at 242 00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:29.320 it before, but not as directly, and that is that 243 00:13:29.519 --> 00:13:33.720 gen Z is actually starting to put their phone down 244 00:13:34.159 --> 00:13:36.840 more so than before. Because, of course, what we know 245 00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:40.559 is gen Z uses phons more than any other generation. 246 00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:43.399 They're finding innovative ways to use it, but sometimes they're 247 00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:45.480 getting addicted to it, right, And that's why you've seen 248 00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:49.960 governments trying to ban both cell phones, especially in educational settings, 249 00:13:50.039 --> 00:13:53.919 but also banning things like social media as well. But 250 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.320 there's the report that's kind of out now that says 251 00:13:56.360 --> 00:13:59.840 that young people are actually not using cell phones as 252 00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:03.679 often as they perhaps were, and a lot of it 253 00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:07.440 comes down to young people wanting to have more social 254 00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:10.440 time with friends and with family, because it's something that 255 00:14:10.879 --> 00:14:14.679 people have lost out on a lot recently with COVID nineteen, 256 00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:18.399 they were locked inside their houses, they were having to quarantine. 257 00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:22.360 And so it's really the constant notifications and their algorithms 258 00:14:22.399 --> 00:14:23.559 and the social. 259 00:14:23.200 --> 00:14:25.759 Pressure that is in some ways creating a lot. 260 00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:28.000 Of chronic stress for young people. And I think young 261 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:30.159 people themselves are starting to realize that. 262 00:14:30.960 --> 00:14:33.759 All right, Wyatt Sharp, what's the name of your channel 263 00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:36.559 on YouTube. 264 00:14:35.440 --> 00:14:38.080 The Sharp Exchange.

Welcome to the other side 295 00:16:46.360 --> 00:16:50.159 of Midnight with Walter Sterling live from Hollywood. Finally we 296 00:16:50.360 --> 00:16:55.759 have a live connection that reaches Hollywood. It cost a 297 00:16:55.799 --> 00:16:58.919 tremendous amount of money to get this in and fourteen 298 00:16:58.960 --> 00:17:02.039 people working over time to actually be able to reach 299 00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:04.720 to you. And soon I'll get a pair of headphones 300 00:17:04.720 --> 00:17:09.559 that enable me to hear stuff and I'll get on it. 301 00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:13.359 Right now, I'm staring at a black computer screen, and 302 00:17:13.400 --> 00:17:17.279 then over there is another black computer screen. But you know, 303 00:17:18.839 --> 00:17:22.920 the trick is to ignore all that and just plow ahead. 304 00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:25.279 And then you know what people say, You know what 305 00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:30.119 people say. Then they say, they say, boy, he's a professional. 306 00:17:31.359 --> 00:17:35.319 What a professional he is if he can do a 307 00:17:35.400 --> 00:17:38.160 show with a black computer screen there and another one 308 00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:41.559 over there. And then if I touched one that was 309 00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.720 you know, feeding Dominic's Sacred Show and it went out 310 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:48.400 for eight seconds, oh my god, that's a disaster. But 311 00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:52.279 if it happened to me twice, there's no problem. You know. 312 00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:56.200 The overnight guy matteas Boom boom in Hollywood. Thank you 313 00:17:56.240 --> 00:17:58.200 for being my friend. I don't have any. 314 00:17:58.119 --> 00:18:01.680 Left pleasure to be your friend, and I bid you 315 00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:05.759 a very pleasant mooring. Although you've had so much fun thus. 316 00:18:05.640 --> 00:18:07.440 Far, I've had a special time. 317 00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:12.079 It's a special time. Speaking of special times, you were 318 00:18:12.119 --> 00:18:15.079 at home by yourself. You were enjoying the new series 319 00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:19.000 on Apple TV, Star City, And I'm curious to know 320 00:18:19.119 --> 00:18:22.720 where the orange flavored Hostess cupcakes involved at all. Well, 321 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:24.559 you were alone and secretly there. 322 00:18:24.880 --> 00:18:29.359 That's a very good question. The orange cupcakes are such 323 00:18:29.400 --> 00:18:34.279 a controversial food that I don't dare eat them in 324 00:18:34.319 --> 00:18:36.880 the home. I only eat them alone in the car, 325 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.079 which is also where I eat gas station chicken. Now, 326 00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:42.799 have you ever had gas station chicken? 327 00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:44.960 I haven't been that brave. 328 00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.839 Well, I didn't think I was that brave either, But 329 00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:51.519 I saw every time I went to this one gas 330 00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:55.440 station which had this incredible aroma of gas station chicken, 331 00:18:55.480 --> 00:18:59.519 and I saw it being made and you could get wings, 332 00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:06.160 legs or or something strip strip not a known part 333 00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:11.279 of a chicken. And so I and it smelled great. 334 00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:15.920 But here's the two things that persuaded me to try it. One, 335 00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:18.839 the owner of the gas station made it. It was 336 00:19:18.960 --> 00:19:21.200 always the owner of the gas station who made it, 337 00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:23.720 so I figured there was some hope there. But the 338 00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.519 other thing is there was always a line. It didn't 339 00:19:26.519 --> 00:19:29.240 matter what time day, I went in, there was always 340 00:19:29.279 --> 00:19:32.960 a line of people wanting the gas station chicken. Hmmm, 341 00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:38.559 and there then I got it. And it's a delicate 342 00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:48.680 synthesis of light, grease and just enough spice in the coating. Wow, 343 00:19:49.079 --> 00:19:52.119 I know, and it's cooked perfectly. I never thought i'd 344 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:54.319 eat it, but I can't admit it to members of 345 00:19:54.319 --> 00:19:56.759 my family though, to be furious that I would eat 346 00:19:56.759 --> 00:19:57.920 the gas station chicken. 347 00:19:58.039 --> 00:20:01.119 Furious did the chicken? Can me get home with you 348 00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:04.359 to watch the television program this weekend or did it 349 00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:05.079 just stay at the. 350 00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:07.200 Guest I sit in the car at the gas station, 351 00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:11.160 don't I don't even leave the gas station in the car. 352 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:14.599 And then then I'll go home and I will watch 353 00:20:15.160 --> 00:20:19.000 Star City, which is uh so far from me the 354 00:20:19.039 --> 00:20:20.720 best television I've seen in years. 355 00:20:21.680 --> 00:20:24.119 I understand that Ronald D. Moore was one of the 356 00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:27.599 creators on that, and he's got you know, he's involved 357 00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:31.279 in the Battlestar galact the TV series, the Star Trek Generations, 358 00:20:31.400 --> 00:20:34.880 Star Trek Next Generation, Star Trek First Contact. So he's 359 00:20:34.880 --> 00:20:37.599 a sci fi guy, and I think that's probably why 360 00:20:38.240 --> 00:20:40.480 he's had a lot of sci fi experience. Did he 361 00:20:40.519 --> 00:20:41.960 do probably one of the reasons. 362 00:20:42.119 --> 00:20:44.720 Did he do Strange New Worlds? Is he involved with 363 00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:46.480 Strange New Worlds? Which is amazing. 364 00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:49.400 No, I haven't seen that series, and I don't know 365 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.079 if he is, but I know that he did those 366 00:20:52.119 --> 00:20:54.599 three at least, and so well, that's one of the reasons. 367 00:20:54.640 --> 00:20:56.039 It's it's going in that direction. 368 00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:58.079 Yeah, that's something I. 369 00:20:58.079 --> 00:20:59.880 Have to tell you. This has been the biggest weekend 370 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.279 Hollywood in recent memory. I mean this is a big thing. 371 00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:07.880 I mean big, big, big, big. The two movies that 372 00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:11.079 are out have now made Hollywood the most money it's 373 00:21:11.079 --> 00:21:16.200 made since before COVID. So the first one, of course, 374 00:21:16.279 --> 00:21:18.559 is Spider Man Brand New Day. We talked about it 375 00:21:18.640 --> 00:21:21.559 last week. That's the new Spider Man movie, which is 376 00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:24.440 out right now and is rather good, and it certainly 377 00:21:24.480 --> 00:21:28.400 seems to be reflected in the attendance worldwide Spider Man 378 00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:34.839 has made since last Friday, nine and twenty seven million dollars. 379 00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:37.720 That's impossible, it's nuts. 380 00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:43.400 This makes it the biggest opening weekend, second only to 381 00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:47.519 the one point two billion opening weekend of Avengers Endgame, 382 00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:52.720 and that was before COVID. So, as I thought might happen, 383 00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:56.599 Spider Man would knock the Odyssey out of first place, 384 00:21:56.839 --> 00:21:59.920 and it certainly has, but nine hundred and twenty seven 385 00:22:00.400 --> 00:22:04.079 million dollars worldwide. Now locally, what I mean locally, I 386 00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:07.359 mean in the US and Canada, The Spider Man made 387 00:22:08.039 --> 00:22:10.839 three hundred and fifty five million. But that's an amazing 388 00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.720 worldwide gross. So it's remarkable to me that the other 389 00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:19.200 movie that also has Tom Holland, Zendia and John Burnhal, 390 00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:22.759 The Odyssey, it just sailed past nine hundred and eleven 391 00:22:22.839 --> 00:22:27.039 million worldwide on its third weekend. So it's been a 392 00:22:27.200 --> 00:22:31.039 very nice time in Hollywood. Universals are proding its biggest 393 00:22:31.079 --> 00:22:35.359 grosses probably since those old Monster movies with Boris Carloff, 394 00:22:35.519 --> 00:22:39.119 like Frankenstein and Baylor Lugosi. So it's it's a good 395 00:22:39.200 --> 00:22:42.640 time in Hollywood, and people are very happy with Tom Holland, 396 00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:45.200 who's having a great time in his career right now. 397 00:22:45.200 --> 00:22:48.880 He just married Zendaya, He's having these terrific movies and 398 00:22:48.920 --> 00:22:51.400 then he's going to play of all people, Fred Astaire 399 00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:54.480 coming up, so well, thank god he has work in Hollywood. 400 00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:56.759 Thank god he has worked. Because we were worried about 401 00:22:56.799 --> 00:22:59.640
