Speaker 1: Scientific Rise to Godhood. Paperback and ebook copies are available
Speaker 1: of that have the Patreon campaign which I have been
Speaker 1: doing live streams as part of a project of what
Speaker 1: I'm calling looking for Truth in All the Wrong Places.
Speaker 1: I'm working on that project over at Patreon, doing the
Speaker 1: live streams, looking at old alternative media DVDs primarily, and
Speaker 1: I'm putting together notes at the moment for what I
Speaker 1: want to be a video series. Is what I was
Speaker 1: wondering if I should make like a single video like
Speaker 1: I did with the original age of transitions video. But
Speaker 1: I think it would be best just to start putting
Speaker 1: together a series and doing them episodically. I actually this
Speaker 1: past week I got back into logged back into for
Speaker 1: the first time in years, my old YouTube channel. I
Speaker 1: still actually do have that. I deleted all the old
Speaker 1: stuff off of it. I posted the last video I posted,
Speaker 1: which is the only video on it now, is me
Speaker 1: complaining about how bad YouTube was at the time, which
Speaker 1: it was hasn't gotten really any better, but it's different
Speaker 1: from the complaints I had at the time. It's now
Speaker 1: different in completely or it's now horrible. It's a horrible
Speaker 1: platform still, but in completely different ways than those I
Speaker 1: was complaining about In the one video on the I
Speaker 1: believe the channel is ADDTV, which was the name of
Speaker 1: my cable access show I had in Columbus, Ohio. So
Speaker 1: I named my name is my original YouTube channel after that,
Speaker 1: so I got got back into that. I'm thinking of
Speaker 1: when I make these episodic looking for Truth in All
Speaker 1: the Wrong Places videos, I will post them to that
Speaker 1: and so be looking for that in in the near
Speaker 1: future hopefully, but for now working on the project over
Speaker 1: at Patreon doing the live streams. So thank you everybody
Speaker 1: who supports on Patreon again. You can find a link
Speaker 1: to that at the Age of Transitions dot com. So
Speaker 1: thank you everybody for your support, for sticking with me,
Speaker 1: for your interest in the Age of Transitions, going to
Speaker 1: keep going here and making different projects. It's good to
Speaker 1: be back on the podcast, back on the live radio here.
Speaker 1: It's been two weeks. I've been gone for two weeks,
Speaker 1: so apologies for being away, but I have returned. Thank
Speaker 1: you for once again sticking with us here on the show.
Speaker 1: So I wanted to begin the show by actually just
Speaker 1: telling an anecdotals story, just a story from everyday life
Speaker 1: that believe it or not, just happened yesterday. To me.
Speaker 1: It's not much really, but I think it's I think
Speaker 1: it's relevant to this show. So see if you agree,
Speaker 1: and I'll get back to the anecdotal part of it
Speaker 1: after I'm done telling you. So I ought to remember
Speaker 1: to do that. But so all this was was I
Speaker 1: was at work, not very exciting, just at my regular
Speaker 1: old work day job. And at my work there are
Speaker 1: several different not radios, but you know, several different music
Speaker 1: playing stations. Right, there's music playing here, there's music playing here.
Speaker 1: There's music playing here. It's not exactly radio that people
Speaker 1: are listening to. You know, we're in the online age,
Speaker 1: as you know, So music is coming out of speakers
Speaker 1: in different parts of my work, okay, and as I
Speaker 1: move around, I'm listening to different music based on whatever
Speaker 1: is being played by whoever's in that area. Right. So,
Speaker 1: earlier on in the day, at one point Born on
Speaker 1: the Bayou by Clear Credence Clearwater Revival was playing on
Speaker 1: the speakers. I say, oh, okay, and so yeah, that's
Speaker 1: I heard that song. And then the important part to
Speaker 1: this story that I have to explain is that when
Speaker 1: I'm out and about doing my job, I am moving around.
Speaker 1: What I don't have is my cellular phone. I'm not
Speaker 1: allowed to have it on my person, so I don't.
Speaker 1: I have multiple opinions on that, but it's just work policy,
Speaker 1: which is it's mostly good because the hell with the phone,
Speaker 1: that's you know, you're better off about it. So I
Speaker 1: could care less that I don't have the phone on me,
Speaker 1: but I'm not. I can't. I can't have it, so
Speaker 1: I don't. So there's no phone on me. There's no surveillance,
Speaker 1: personalized surveillance, device on my person as I move around
Speaker 1: doing my job, right, so anyway me phone less moving
Speaker 1: around work, Yes, I do move quite a bit. I
Speaker 1: it's one point early in the day here Born on
Speaker 1: the Bayo. I'm sure you're aware of that song. Everybody
Speaker 1: knows that one, right. And then later in the day
Speaker 1: I'm walking around once again phoneless. Is just sort of
Speaker 1: out in the middle of nowhere, no listening devices around
Speaker 1: me that I'm aware of. And I say out loud
Speaker 1: because sometimes crazy guy talks to himself, I say out loud,
Speaker 1: not in my head, and I say, born on the Bayou,
Speaker 1: my ass more like born in the San Francisco bay area,
Speaker 1: because you know, John Fogerty isn't from the damn Bayou.
Speaker 1: He's from the bay area. He's up by like San Francisco.
Speaker 1: He's born raised there. I think he still lives there.
Speaker 1: He doesn't have anything to do with a bayou. I
Speaker 1: don't know if he's ever been to a bayou. Maybe
Speaker 1: he's been there on the occasion, but he's sure as
Speaker 1: hell was not born on it, you know. So I
Speaker 1: was said there like goofing on that, like born on
Speaker 1: the bayou? Uh huh? So I said that out loud again,
Speaker 1: I'm in insane person. Don't worry, nobody was around. I
Speaker 1: was truly talking to myself. A lot of space at work,
Speaker 1: a lot a lot of empty space, so sometimes I
Speaker 1: have a lot of room to you know, a lot
Speaker 1: of elbow room, is what I got. So they're talking
Speaker 1: to myself a commentary on Born on the Bayou, which
Speaker 1: had played hours ago at this point, if my memory
Speaker 1: is correct, and it may not be, but anyway, that
Speaker 1: was work. I did that, among other things. I come
Speaker 1: home later that night, and at this point, guess what
Speaker 1: I have again? I have my phone. I'm allowed to
Speaker 1: have my phone again, and foolishly I have it. I
Speaker 1: probably shouldn't. I probably should just keep my work policy
Speaker 1: going in my personal life, but I'm so stupid I don't.
Speaker 1: I'm like, yeah, let's use this thing and pretend it's
Speaker 1: good for me, Pretend that it actually serves some sort
Speaker 1: of purpose other than once again surveilling me completely and
Speaker 1: mind controlling me and making my life actually worse, not better,
Speaker 1: serving me up the day's latest propaganda from our tech
Speaker 1: overlords who own the entire thing. But anyway, I had
Speaker 1: my phone at home and I fire up TikTok because
Speaker 1: I do have the call TikTok account. I run it,
Speaker 1: and from time to time I just open up uh
Speaker 1: TikTok and watch the videos on there. I believe it
Speaker 1: helps the algorithm out, should help the old uncle TikTok
Speaker 1: out by me just watching videos. So I have my
Speaker 1: phone at home relaxing, I think on the couch, Uh
Speaker 1: open up TikTok. What's the first video that plays on TikTok. Well,
Speaker 1: it happens to be a video of none other than
Speaker 1: John Fogerty. And what is he doing. Oh, he's being
Speaker 1: interviewed on something like Inside the Accurate Studio, like a
Speaker 1: show like that, but you know, from music or something.
Speaker 1: But anyway, what are they asking about? Oh, they're asking
Speaker 1: him about why he's always singing about the Buyo, Like
Speaker 1: why is it that you sing about the Bayou? What
Speaker 1: is that he's going? Oh, I don't really know. And
Speaker 1: it's like, actually, you know all the great old musicians
Speaker 1: like led Billy, they all came from the Bayou. So
Speaker 1: that probably got an influence on me because I'd influenced
Speaker 1: my music viously moh blah blah blah. So so there
Speaker 1: it is. That's my story. And in case you missed it,
Speaker 1: there's a lot to unpack with this one because what
Speaker 1: this is is, as far as I can see, there's
Speaker 1: two options for what's going on in this story. One
Speaker 1: one it's a genuine reach. They do occur, they are
Speaker 1: there are such things. It's an interesting phenomenon. It's either
Speaker 1: that or what I'm sort of leaning towards because nowadays
Speaker 1: I can't help but do this. It's an artificial synchronicity,
Speaker 1: which would be uh seeing is how this is all
Speaker 1: the synchronicity happens on my uh digital device. It would
Speaker 1: make sense sense that it was a product of the
Speaker 1: device spun on me and serving that what I fed
Speaker 1: into it. In put Apple that are wireless devices, are
Speaker 1: mobile devices have the microphones, and the microphones are always on.
Speaker 1: They're always listening to us thing that where you saying
Speaker 1: because the microphone there's so many differs. It is happening
Speaker 1: to them, so you can't these things aren't doing that.
Speaker 1: It's been over a decade where they have been denying it.
Speaker 1: This happening. This being the use of the microphones to
Speaker 1: collect the data on what we're saying, so that they
Speaker 1: use that as just more of their data sets on us,
Speaker 1: which they used to target ads, among other things, just
Speaker 1: more of the private data we're giving them on ourselves.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: They've been denying that I and as far as I
Speaker 1: know and can remember, they're still denying that. It may
Speaker 1: be that I'm behind on that, and some company or
Speaker 1: person or industry insider has come forward and said, yeah,
Speaker 1: we do that, Yeah we've been doing that. But as
Speaker 1: far as I know know, that hasn't happened yet. Be
Speaker 1: that as it may, we damn well know it is
Speaker 1: happening because we're not stupid. We're not fricking morons as
Speaker 1: we're treated. We're treated like absolute stupid idiots. And I
Speaker 1: for one, am sick of it. I know you're listening
Speaker 1: to me. Now, go to hell, you freaking bastard zeah
Speaker 1: bastard bastards. I hate you. I hate what you're doing.
Speaker 1: I know you can hear this. Go straight to hell
Speaker 1: where you came from. All right, you might think this
Speaker 1: is funny me trying to figure out natural versus artificial synchronicity.
Speaker 1: I truly don't know. I'm trying to work this out.
Speaker 1: I know it's one of them, and I'm leaning on
Speaker 1: the synthetic. The synthetic synchronicity, not natural artificial. That's I
Speaker 1: believe what's happening, because that's once again I default to
Speaker 1: that in this digital age of total surveillance. So I mean,
Speaker 1: the question is, and it's a good one. If it
Speaker 1: is synthetic artificial synchronousy that happened to me, what the
Speaker 1: hell enabled it? Like I said, I did not have
Speaker 1: my phone. It was not within earshot. My phone was
Speaker 1: far enough away that it did not hear me. It
Speaker 1: could not hear me. The microphone could not hear me.
Speaker 1: It was far away. I was a completely different area,
Speaker 1: So my phone wasn't there. I wasn't even around a
Speaker 1: coworker that had a phone. As far as I know,
Speaker 1: I don't think somebody set a phone down somewhere. But
Speaker 1: I don't think so. I don't know. I mean, there
Speaker 1: are different machines at work, but to think that they
Speaker 1: are part of this same thing that paps into the
Speaker 1: social media system would be a stretch, quite frankly, So
Speaker 1: I wouldn't think they would be doing anything. I wouldn't think.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Uh So, there's just a lot of
Speaker 1: questions that arise with this. May now maybe my memory.
Speaker 1: M hm hm.
Speaker 3: Hm hm hm.
Speaker 1: It's not sound I drive home or something. Maybe I'm
Speaker 1: just for every stupid little detail of your day. But
Speaker 1: as I remember, I just said it earlier in today,
Speaker 1: So I don't know. Okay, but.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just once again, this is an anecdotal story. It's
Speaker 1: just a boring story. It's another boring day in the
Speaker 1: life of me made it's somewhat interesting in the horrifying
Speaker 1: ramifications of the digital hell we live in, because that's
Speaker 1: what I like to talk about on this show. It's
Speaker 1: so much fun. I can't help myself, but do it.
Speaker 1: This is the age of transitions, everybody. It's time to
Speaker 1: start thinking about what all this stuff is, what this
Speaker 1: all means, where we can what's happening, and how this
Speaker 1: whole uh, how this all works. Trying to get that
Speaker 1: at that with this, I mean, I'm not gonna I'm
Speaker 1: not gonna do it. I'm not gonna fully unpack this.
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna figure it out. But that's okay. But
Speaker 1: it's an anecdotal story, and because it is, I couldn't
Speaker 1: figure anything out from it anyway. Is the sort of
Speaker 1: I'm not sure if every anybody's familiar with that sort
Speaker 1: of generalized piece of none knowledge that we're all supposed
Speaker 1: to believe. But I know I've heard this that anything
Speaker 1: that's an dotally you tell, an anecdotal story, you tell
Speaker 1: like a little story about your life, like I just did.
Speaker 1: You're not supposed to read too much into it because
Speaker 1: you know your your evidence gathered there mm hmm mm
Speaker 1: hmm is going to be limited. It's not you're not
Speaker 1: running a scientifical experiment. I maybe I'm the drive home.
Speaker 1: I don't remember so, yes, So there are problems, the
Speaker 1: main one being my damn memory. It's just getting worse
Speaker 1: all the time, right, but h But regardless, even with
Speaker 1: the flaws of this, the flaws of our memory, the
Speaker 1: flaws of the stories that we tell ourselves about our lives,
Speaker 1: which are always we're always gonna Unless you have some
Speaker 1: sort of photographic memory, and some people do, you shouldn't
Speaker 1: trust anecdotal stories. You shouldn't trust. And the thing that
Speaker 1: I get out of this, this generalized piece of knowledge
Speaker 1: that we're all just supposed to believe, is the way
Speaker 1: it seems it's presented. The thing about it is we're
Speaker 1: not supposed to trust ourselves. And then if we're getting
Speaker 1: back to like the concept that there actually could be
Speaker 1: a natural form of synchronicity, forget that that's completely bunk.
Speaker 1: You're just totally out of your mind if you're trying
Speaker 1: to buy into something like that. So don't. And I'm
Speaker 1: sorry to me. This just feeds back into the nine
Speaker 1: sick defeatist mindset that's forced onto us from birth in
Speaker 1: this depressing world where we live our lives and instead
Speaker 1: of being able to observe things and learn from what
Speaker 1: we do on a daily basis, and even with simple things,
Speaker 1: it's almost as though we're being encouraged not to believe
Speaker 1: our own eyes first of all, but also just like,
Speaker 1: don't even try. Don't try to figure anything out, because
Speaker 1: you've gotta be wrong. You're a dumb moron. So know
Speaker 1: your place and just get back to work without your
Speaker 1: phone and shut up, because that's what you're meant to do. No,
Speaker 1: of course, your phone's not listening to you, because all
Speaker 1: you got is stupid anecdotal stories. Oh you were talking
Speaker 1: about cats and then you opened up MySpace and a
Speaker 1: kitty cat toy ad popped up. Well, guess what, that's
Speaker 1: probably just coincidence. You so don't believe anything other than that?
Speaker 1: What are you an idiot? So I think you get
Speaker 1: my point here. We're demoralized at every damn turn. We're
Speaker 1: not supposed to investigate. We're not supposed to think, because
Speaker 1: I guess we can't. We're just not allowed for one thing,
Speaker 1: even if we did. We're not scientists running an experiment
Speaker 1: with our lives. So it makes it useless because our
Speaker 1: lives aren't an experiment. Oh but maybe they are an experiment.
Speaker 1: Maybe we are being experimented on by scientists. Literally, no,
Speaker 1: it's not us. But since since you put things in
Speaker 1: this way, why don't I flip the thing around and say, Okay,
Speaker 1: since I'm so dumb and I'm not doing the scientific
Speaker 1: experiment on yourself, how about you share your findings on
Speaker 1: me and my entire life. How about that so that
Speaker 1: I can learn what you've learned about me? How is
Speaker 1: that reasonable? I might learn a whole lot out of
Speaker 1: this controlled experiment that you're doing on me and the
Speaker 1: whole of the entire world. This is not a personal thing.
Speaker 1: This is well, it is personal for every single person
Speaker 1: who exists has their own you know, file or whatever
Speaker 1: you want to call it, and so you know, why
Speaker 1: not flip it around on them. If they're going to
Speaker 1: demoralize us and say that we can't figure out our
Speaker 1: own lives and figure out what's happening and figure out
Speaker 1: what's being done to us, fine, you go ahead and
Speaker 1: you tell me be what you the bastion of being forthcoming.
Speaker 1: Just lay it all out there, because I know that's
Speaker 1: what you always do. You just you just lay everything
Speaker 1: that you're doing out there on the table. Just you
Speaker 1: just plain and simple. We live in the UH in
Speaker 1: an age of total a total open society, which is
Speaker 1: where everybody knows everything. Everything is just so transparent. We
Speaker 1: have transparent leadership everywhere we look. The truth is just
Speaker 1: being told on every UH, from every microphone, from the
Speaker 1: highest heights of power. Those who are in charge just
Speaker 1: are are are just chomping at the bit to tell
Speaker 1: us the truth about everything. So it's just real, it's
Speaker 1: real inspiring to be living in times like this. It's
Speaker 1: it's exciting to be here for all of this, for
Speaker 1: these social experiments being run twenty four hours a day,
Speaker 1: seven days a week, at all times, being fueled by
Speaker 1: big data collection, collecting data on us constantly which will
Speaker 1: be used to This is what the AI revolution is.
Speaker 1: It's just gathering more and more and more and more data,
Speaker 1: feeding it into these AI systems so that they as
Speaker 1: the AI gets better, it's just organizing this data which
Speaker 1: is constantly being taken in, organizing it better, being able
Speaker 1: to use it, and the systems are going to be
Speaker 1: better at you know, siphening through it and using it
Speaker 1: against us. That's what the whole AI thing is. That's
Speaker 1: what's working out at present. That's what's been happening the
Speaker 1: whole time. But you know that's real boring, so let's
Speaker 1: just skip on that altogether. Anecdotal story is useless. What's
Speaker 1: fascinating is, Yes, I was saying, how demoralizing this just
Speaker 1: general attitude is. However, there is I guess silver lining
Speaker 1: on it. If we actually are given to believe that
Speaker 1: we shouldn't trust ourselves or trust our investigations in anything,
Speaker 1: I mean there is there is some sad truth in
Speaker 1: that people collectively now are starting to do their own research,
Speaker 1: as they say, in the same sense that we know
Speaker 1: of here in the alternative conspiracy culture community, in this
Speaker 1: sort of fringe world that gave birth the alternative media
Speaker 1: that gave birth to the truth movement so many years ago.
Speaker 1: Now we're getting into the same ti territory that looking
Speaker 1: for truth in all the wrong places is all about
Speaker 1: what I'm working on, my project that I'm working on,
Speaker 1: This is the space that it exists, within the space
Speaker 1: of the dead and dying remnants of what once was
Speaker 1: an alternative media, what once was a truth movement, what
Speaker 1: once was at least a sliver of useful conspiracy culture,
Speaker 1: something where you a place where you could go to
Speaker 1: do your own research, to look into things, to question
Speaker 1: not just reality, but question authority, do free thinking, and
Speaker 1: do actual research if you have the time and there
Speaker 1: are resources online to do some research. Yes, I know
Speaker 1: everybody shoots it down like it's useless, but there is
Speaker 1: stuff to be found there, and you can also go
Speaker 1: other places if you really get inspired offline, which is great,
Speaker 1: do actual research in the offline world. That would be wonderful.
Speaker 1: But what, in a roundabout sense I'm trying to get
Speaker 1: out here is that we who were interested in that
Speaker 1: so many years ago. I count myself among that crowd,
Speaker 1: that community, if there ever was one. But for me
Speaker 1: now I'm speaking personally for myself. I've become more than
Speaker 1: disillusioned with that whole scene, to the extent that I
Speaker 1: think that the whole thing has done more harm than good.
Speaker 1: And I know, I absolutely know that conspiracy culture and
Speaker 1: all of these alternative facts, that whole thing has been used.
Speaker 1: It has been weaponized against us, and not When I
Speaker 1: say us, I don't just mean the people that were
Speaker 1: interested in this years ago, which was a fringe group
Speaker 1: of like it was definitely an outsider thing, not the
Speaker 1: typical person not interested. Okay, the normies so to speak,
Speaker 1: were staying far away from this stuff. What's fascinating is
Speaker 1: that none of this has gone away. If anything, it
Speaker 1: has ballooned. It has taken over Internet, not just information
Speaker 1: from conspiracy culture, which is replete on all sorts of
Speaker 1: message boards and different things that were mainstreamed. I think QAnon.
Speaker 1: QAnon was like a mainstreaming of every conspiracy concept, every
Speaker 1: conspiracy thing you've ever heard, any story, any idea, any
Speaker 1: of the cast of characters, any of the sordid topics
Speaker 1: from that world which is dumped into QAnon and just
Speaker 1: mixed up and used for what, well, as far as
Speaker 1: I can tell, is use to elect a moronic president
Speaker 1: who was a formerly reality TV show host and it worked. Wow,
Speaker 1: that was really something. So that's but QAnon. I shouldn't
Speaker 1: just pick on QAnon and Mega and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: That's just one example of what is now a much
Speaker 1: larger picture. It's not only Mega, it's not only the
Speaker 1: right wing side of the equation. It is the left
Speaker 1: wing too. It's it's everybody. Anybody who is online, anybody
Speaker 1: who is on social media. Do you know any of
Speaker 1: those people? You know? Anybody like this, anybody who is
Speaker 1: doing that is now subject to all of this. Once again,
Speaker 1: the logic of conspiracy, the arising the general stories of
Speaker 1: let's come up with the general story we've probably heard before.
Speaker 1: The world is run by a satanic elite pedophile ring
Speaker 1: that controls us by stay in power and they own
Speaker 1: everything and you can't stop them, but we're going to
Speaker 1: stop them. And this is how ever, hear anything like
Speaker 1: this before? Oh, yeah, of course you have, because everybody has.
Speaker 1: Everybody's heard this. I'm not just saying this to complain that, like, oh,
Speaker 1: conspiracy's culture was stolen by the normies. It's not that
Speaker 1: I'm at the point where, once again I know that
Speaker 1: this stuff has been weaponized, weaponized for multiple purposes, for
Speaker 1: multiple ends. And as that has happened, and as technology
Speaker 1: continues to develop, continue to get better. I mean in
Speaker 1: many ways it has gotten worse. And lots of things
Speaker 1: about this will make you go like, is technology really
Speaker 1: getting better? Things just getting worse? And in ways it
Speaker 1: is getting worse. But the advancements that they need to
Speaker 1: occur in order to surveil and control us better are
Speaker 1: certainly being done, lots of effort being put into that.
Speaker 1: And once't you know it, as that happens concurrently a coincidence,
Speaker 1: everybody in the world just is all about just spending
Speaker 1: all their time talking about every conspiracy you've ever heard
Speaker 1: of online. It's not just for Qan honors anymore. Anybody
Speaker 1: on social media is just talking about it. And the
Speaker 1: Epstein thing has gotten huge once again, that's a double
Speaker 1: edged sword. It's good, it's bad. But if we don't
Speaker 1: think that can be used against us too, please think again.
Speaker 1: It can be. So we gotta be careful with all
Speaker 1: of this. Uh, it's just it's just really it's it's wild.
Speaker 1: It's wild to see what is going on. Uh, it's
Speaker 1: hard to know where we go from here. But what
Speaker 1: is clear is that we I mean to me, what
Speaker 1: we're up against becomes more and more clear every day,
Speaker 1: and it's just a matter of articulating. That is the
Speaker 1: hope of what I'm doing on this show. I hope
Speaker 1: to be doing that, taking stabs at it and my
Speaker 1: stupid anecdotal stories that aren't science and useless. And I
Speaker 1: guess it does come back to the belief in human
Speaker 1: agency and free will. I have always believed that those
Speaker 1: things are actual things. There is such a thing as
Speaker 1: free will. I'm a crazy person that believes that we
Speaker 1: have agency, we have the capacity for independent thought, For
Speaker 1: we have the capacity to be conscious and to make conscious,
Speaker 1: actual decisions, conscious individuated thoughts, ideas, and amazingly actions can
Speaker 1: sometimes happen. Thus, free will is possible, although it gets
Speaker 1: more and more difficult to do with each passing day.
Speaker 1: And that is because, my opinion is that is because
Speaker 1: of the synthetic, artificial overlay that has been provided by technology,
Speaker 1: and our lords and masters are using it at every
Speaker 1: step of the way. Not to free us, not to
Speaker 1: enlighten us, not to inform us, not to help us,
Speaker 1: but to surveill and control us. That is their interest,
Speaker 1: because they want to hold on to what they have,
Speaker 1: which is it's power, it's control. Relatively speaking, they can
Speaker 1: only do so much and they can't do everything, but
Speaker 1: their little wizard of Oz machine allows them to do
Speaker 1: just enough to get away with it. It's really something
Speaker 1: to see what they're able to pull off, what we
Speaker 1: allow them to get away with on a daily basis.
Speaker 1: They just keep rolling with it, and they're going to
Speaker 1: keep tweaking this machine to keep us in a corner. Confused,
Speaker 1: sometimes frightened, sometimes scared, m mainly just confused, honestly looking
Speaker 1: at the wrong direction. Obfuscations easy to do. It's easy
Speaker 1: to get somebody. If somebody is onto a bread crumb,
Speaker 1: you just drop a related breadcrumb down that's going to
Speaker 1: lead them off the path that you don't want them
Speaker 1: to go down. It's pretty simple to do that. It's
Speaker 1: automated now with algorithms. Once again, these AI systems, they
Speaker 1: can all do all this. And so it is that
Speaker 1: that is the interesting AI revolution that nobody really wants
Speaker 1: to talk about. We want to talk about about AGI
Speaker 1: and digital consciousness and that kind of stuff, or we
Speaker 1: even like to talk about stuff which is not illegitimate,
Speaker 1: like the AI bubble I'm not saying that's not a thing,
Speaker 1: but the real ins and outs that have still remain elusive,
Speaker 1: ironic where ye enough, But it's difficult. It's difficult because
Speaker 1: this is all okay with us. We will be fed
Speaker 1: the John Fogerty video when we pick up the telescreen again.
Speaker 1: John Fogerty will be there waiting for us, talking about
Speaker 1: the Bayou, explaining everything in minute detail. And by everything,
Speaker 1: I mean I talked about the Bible. But that's a thing,
Speaker 1: sort of piece of media, isn't it. It's a guy
Speaker 1: just kind of like making an interesting piece. I mean,
Speaker 1: he made art that the whole world has heard. It
Speaker 1: has affected countless numbers of people. It comes down to
Speaker 1: the creative process. He has struggle articulating it, which is fascinating.
Speaker 1: I mean, now we're getting into art, which is a
Speaker 1: whole other thing. Which, yeah, that's a whole other direction.
Speaker 1: But along, I guess since we're talking about free will
Speaker 1: and free agency and attempting to be conscious creatures, I
Speaker 1: believe that art is an actual thing too, and creativity,
Speaker 1: and I think it's something that is bigger than the individual.
Speaker 1: To me making art, throughout my life, it's always felt
Speaker 1: like the art. Honestly, it's like the channeling stuff, which
Speaker 1: I generally speaking, I think channeling is mostly BS and
Speaker 1: I'm very I mean, it's an avenue for Charlottean's for sure.
Speaker 1: It's if you hear somebody online saying that they're channeling something,
Speaker 1: I mean you should Usually the way people describe channeling
Speaker 1: is the way that it feels when you're making actual
Speaker 1: art is like it's just something that's out there in
Speaker 1: the ether, right, like the infinite creative metaphysical ether, and
Speaker 1: it's just like you are the vessel by which it
Speaker 1: just kind of comes through. What would be musing because
Speaker 1: the drama you know, you know, making or it goes
Speaker 1: onto so that would be art. But now now we're
Speaker 1: somewhere else entirely. But I mean, all the A I
Speaker 1: do all this stuff for us now, because a I
Speaker 1: can make art, a I can make any kind of
Speaker 1: media we want. Why we just have AI uh might
Speaker 1: make Uh? Well, why don't they we just have AI
Speaker 1: live our lives for us? Why we had to do
Speaker 1: anything anymore? What's the point, what's the point point of
Speaker 1: even thinking? We already know that there's no point of
Speaker 1: thinking about our lives and trying to derive any meaning
Speaker 1: from it. We already were told that we can't do
Speaker 1: that in the first place, so we know we shouldn't
Speaker 1: be doing that, But why don't we program AI machines
Speaker 1: to do it for us. We can start out by
Speaker 1: having them analyze everything we do on a daily basis
Speaker 1: and then telling us what they think it all meant.
Speaker 1: And we can just listen to it, and we can
Speaker 1: real nice and allow us to think we came up
Speaker 1: with the idea. Say it knows how vain we are,
Speaker 1: and so it'll do that for us. I'll be real service.
Speaker 1: So we can have AI watching us and then later
Speaker 1: telling us what we did, reminding us what we did
Speaker 1: throughout the day, and not just that. It'll tell us
Speaker 1: what it all means. Might even get philosophical on us,
Speaker 1: and I'll get a lot of fun. So that will happen.
Speaker 1: That's going to happen. So that should be interesting. And
Speaker 1: uh yeah, yeah, we'll we'll we won't stop there. We'll
Speaker 1: have the machines make also, we'll have them creating creative projects.
Speaker 1: We can't be bothered with it because take too much time.
Speaker 1: Maybe I don't know, or maybe we will. We'll collaborate
Speaker 1: with it. That's that's one of the fun ways to
Speaker 1: get us all on board with this, is that we're
Speaker 1: going to be collaborating with these agentic ais or you know,
Speaker 1: we'll be collaborating at work. We'll be collaborating with these
Speaker 1: projects we like to do, and we'll be working right
Speaker 1: alongside it. And I'm not discounting that entirely. I think
Speaker 1: that probably will happen. So I'm not saying no, not yeah,
Speaker 1: I think that will happen. But at some point, why
Speaker 1: don't we just stop? Why don't we just go away?
Speaker 1: We the people as mentioned in the United States constitutions,
Speaker 1: Since we're just destroying the Constitution and America. Since we're
Speaker 1: doing that, why don't we destroy the actual we the
Speaker 1: people that the Constitution's only talking about in a philosophical way,
Speaker 1: laying out a system of government for us. Why don't
Speaker 1: we just take it down to the true bear bones
Speaker 1: of we the people? And we don't need that anymore.
Speaker 1: So the machines just be everything. We can just go
Speaker 1: away at this point. Who needs this? We're boring anyway,
Speaker 1: We never had free will. We're boring. We're easily manipulated
Speaker 1: and tricked. We believe anything that anybody tells us. If
Speaker 1: it's something we want to hear, we already believe it.
Speaker 1: We're on board with it. It's real exciting. We're not
Speaker 1: scientific enough with our analyses of ourselves or anything around us,
Speaker 1: so therefore we're useless. We always were, We're never really
Speaker 1: capable of being scientific experimenters in every moment of our
Speaker 1: everyday lives. So what good were we? Machines definitely will be.
Speaker 2: Able to do.
Speaker 1: Then see how good they are. See how great they are,
Speaker 1: and how horrible we are. You get in all this. Okay, good,
Speaker 1: I'm glad you're on board with this. This is the
Speaker 1: way of the future. Okay, how how else are we
Speaker 1: rendering ourselves useless? Well, work, of course you know that.
Speaker 1: Don't stare me right in the face. We don't need
Speaker 1: to do that anymore. The machines are going to do
Speaker 1: all our work for us. And once again, I'll start
Speaker 1: his collaboration and I'll just go to okay, machine, you
Speaker 1: just do it all. What the heck was I even
Speaker 1: doing collaborating anyway, I'm just slowing you down. So there
Speaker 1: you go. They're doing all the work. Now, not that
Speaker 1: that is a bad thing, because the work that we
Speaker 1: do is just robot work anyway, so makes sense that
Speaker 1: the robots do the work that was designed to be
Speaker 1: done by a robot instead of a human doing the
Speaker 1: work of a robot. So this is all quite logical
Speaker 1: and it all makes perfect sense. So I'm on board
Speaker 1: with it. There. Let's see here. What else? Hmm, creativity,
Speaker 1: free will, science, anecdotal stories, art stories. Did I say stories?
Speaker 1: Well on AI movies, movies are oh are you there?
Speaker 1: Are you talking?
Speaker 4: Yeah? AI wives, they're almost perfected? How about that?
Speaker 1: Yes? Of course relations human relationship, so that's of course
Speaker 1: we can. We need to get rid of us. What
Speaker 1: was I thinking? That's gotta go, gotta go. Okay, so
Speaker 1: that's a man. Now another talk about staring you in
Speaker 1: the face. How am I missing these things? Being a
Speaker 1: fool appear on that.
Speaker 4: On my own.
Speaker 1: On a show that doesn't prove anything because it from
Speaker 1: the start, because it's just a human person that by
Speaker 1: definition is already I don't know, is not only this
Speaker 1: mm hm m hm, m hm m hm. God do
Speaker 1: you listening to the show? Stop listening to it because
Speaker 1: this and serve you up something that is actually useful
Speaker 1: to listen to and something that for once, for once
Speaker 1: in human existence in the twenty first century, something useful
Speaker 1: can be done.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because AI A description of AI driven AI driven
Speaker 4: and hosted.
Speaker 1: Podcast I'll do see what's nice with these.
Speaker 4: AI driven and hosted podcasts are already your reality, so
Speaker 4: you don't have to do this anymore.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's that's the point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I'm saying. Even the podcast itself.
Speaker 1: It's on a step aside here we got you gotta
Speaker 1: know where you got, you gotta know when to fold them.
Speaker 1: Mm hmm. That's right, that's right. I mean, there's nothing
Speaker 1: wrong with it. It's just there's no shame. There's no shame.
Speaker 1: It's just you know, knowing when to say when. So
Speaker 1: no big deal on that. But in the meantime, uh,
Speaker 1: looking for truth in all the wrong places. Remember, I
Speaker 1: want to be making those videos and might uh we'll
Speaker 1: see what we can do with that and hopefully hopefully
Speaker 1: something can come to that and you can work on
Speaker 1: that project with me while it's still possible over at Patreon,
Speaker 1: and we'll do that and I'll be exciting and I
Speaker 1: am actually excited about that. And also for listeners might
Speaker 1: be interested to hear that I'm talking to Adam, and
Speaker 1: we're working on doing another episode of Themes and Memes.
Speaker 1: We don't do a whole lot of them these days,
Speaker 1: but we're gonna have another one coming up soon, so
Speaker 1: that'll be good. I'm looking forward to that. So those
Speaker 1: are things to look out for in the near future
Speaker 1: and in the even nearer future. We're moving right into

Speaker 1: I'm looking at tictac here. We're on tiktac, We're on YouTube,
Speaker 1: we're on Twitch, we're on Rumble in addition to o'chili
Speaker 1: dot com. So we got a lot going on. It's
Speaker 1: really exciting that I'm looking at the monitor now. It
Speaker 1: looks like we're up and running on all those platforms.
Speaker 1: So it's a good thing. We're doing a fine job here, Uncle,
Speaker 1: run bad right, So we'll see how many people we
Speaker 1: can get.
Speaker 8: And here what I got on tik tak, I'm going
Speaker 8: over the top.
Speaker 1: What's happening over there?
Speaker 8: We're getting a lot. We're getting a lot of.
Speaker 1: People, a lot of views on some of those videos.
Speaker 1: Oh uncle, ye, I mean what do we got?
Speaker 8: Pretty soon might be getting money for them?
Speaker 1: Thinking have we made it to that point already getting
Speaker 1: close to it.
Speaker 8: But what I'm thinking is to help you out in
Speaker 8: your shoots that if I could do that and get
Speaker 8: that studied, that pull you and get you Bisney for.
Speaker 1: Those that don't know the things you need. In addition
Speaker 1: to doing this online media, I along with my wife
Speaker 1: also sell things online. We sell We have an Etsy
Speaker 1: shop where we sell vintage clothes actually, and that does okay,
Speaker 1: we did pretty good to that. Honestly, it's not too
Speaker 1: bad for a little bit of extra money. And so
Speaker 1: uncles think about maybe doing little commercials through his tic
Speaker 1: tac for our little UTSI shop or the clothes and
Speaker 1: all that. So yeah, we'll see. But the TikTok we
Speaker 1: should be talking about that.
Speaker 11: Well yeah, yeah, well of course a tic tac is
Speaker 11: playing on and it's going pretty good. Really, what I
Speaker 11: don't understand why people never listen much listens.
Speaker 1: To him you're talking about to this or to listen
Speaker 1: to the tic tac tica. They don't listen. Some people do,
Speaker 1: some people don't. Who's who? Who is not listening? Who
Speaker 1: is this?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 1: I'm not going to mention your names and right now? Well, well,
Speaker 1: well let's discuss a specific success with TikTok because we
Speaker 1: have videos do pretty decent. Around one thousand too, we
Speaker 1: had one video of you doing one of your recipes
Speaker 1: where you're making all of your launches that had like
Speaker 1: that's up to almost eight thousand views now and a
Speaker 1: lot of interactions with comments and a lot of follows
Speaker 1: from it. That did good.
Speaker 11: I thick and the food makes go pretty good. People
Speaker 11: like food, people love the food. To understand this stuff,
Speaker 11: but it's just going crazy with that.
Speaker 1: They love that and get it. And then our most
Speaker 1: fewed video is one of our more recent ones where
Speaker 1: what it is is I have this cactus in a pot.
Speaker 1: It's cascading like sort of long cactus that's like fuzzy.
Speaker 1: And what I did was I burnt it with a
Speaker 1: lighter and it burns like the fire is going.
Speaker 12: And know how many people got on that. They jumped
Speaker 12: on that mofish. That got to be popular in that video.
Speaker 12: So it's it was at two hundred and fifty thousand
Speaker 12: views last time I looked. It's probably go past three hundred,
Speaker 12: maybe past three hundred.
Speaker 1: Now. It just keeps getting more and more and more
Speaker 1: and more and more and more. So that one is,
Speaker 1: I dare I say, a viral video for as far
Speaker 1: as we're concerned. So that's our most viewed video. It
Speaker 1: does decent in terms of bringing people in for followers
Speaker 1: and stuff. But I feel like we're on the right
Speaker 1: track with it. Uncle, it feels that way. It might
Speaker 1: be I don't know if that's maybe I shouldn't feel
Speaker 1: that way, but I do you feel good about this? Uncle? Yeah?
Speaker 8: I don't, cause it's picking up well. I thought I
Speaker 8: would go off, but no, it's kicking up more.
Speaker 1: It's kicking right, kicking up people. It's kicking people. Well, now,
Speaker 1: when we started doing this, this is true, we started this,
Speaker 1: you know, it's this talk show, the podcast. Yeah, yeah, and.
Speaker 8: Now jumping into tick tak and getting more people.
Speaker 1: You just go in mean crazy, We're jumping right in there.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna look. I'm gonna look at the tic tac monitor.
Speaker 1: It looks like we have somebody viewing now. Okay, although
Speaker 1: we were getting likes over at ticktak, I'm gonna say
Speaker 1: thank you for the likes. Uh everyone keep them coming.
Speaker 1: If I can spell right there, Okay, there we go,
Speaker 1: So thank you everybody over there on tiktak. You're doing
Speaker 1: help If it's fun, it's fun. Uncle. I was saying
Speaker 1: on my show in the previous hour that sorry for
Speaker 1: mentioning it, but I I was saying, how I logged
Speaker 1: into my old YouTube channel that was the me specific
Speaker 1: YouTube channel, not the not the Uncle one. We got
Speaker 1: the Uncle one, but I have my old account that's
Speaker 1: just like essentially like government hour channel. I logged into
Speaker 1: that for the first time in years. So I'm think
Speaker 1: about maybe making some of my videos on there. Maybe
Speaker 1: I'll talk about that in the first time it Hey
Speaker 1: build that up, Yeah, I mean maybe why not.
Speaker 11: I mean, I'm trying to get what I'm doing is
Speaker 11: doing this show and time with the tic tag. I'm
Speaker 11: looking two kind of operations on my side, you might
Speaker 11: well get another one on your side.
Speaker 1: Well, thinking about it as well, I don't see why not.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I mean we got we got a lot of
Speaker 1: irons in the fire, is.
Speaker 7: What we do.
Speaker 1: We promise we're not spread thin completely. I mean we
Speaker 1: probably are, but we're not completely spread thin. If if
Speaker 1: this hand, so those of you who have the video
Speaker 1: are gonna be able to see my hand, I need
Speaker 1: to pull up me here so they can see it. Uncle,
Speaker 1: here's my hand, now pretend my hand. The flat part
Speaker 1: at the top is a piece of toast. Okay, you
Speaker 1: see this, uncle, you fall on this top of the
Speaker 1: hand is toast. Now here comes the butter. Here's this
Speaker 1: little padd of butter here. I'm gonna spread it. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna spread it, spread, spread, spread, spread. There's a lot butter.
Speaker 1: I just it was a little I don't know if
Speaker 1: you know this, uncle, but was a little tiny piece
Speaker 1: of butter. I was spreading. I'm spreading, spreading now. Now
Speaker 1: at this point the top of my hand is that
Speaker 1: tiny little bit of butter has been spread out through
Speaker 1: this old hand of mine and it's been literally spread thin.
Speaker 1: But be that as it may. Hold it.
Speaker 8: You got a phone call for better let's hear what
Speaker 8: this phone is calling.
Speaker 7: Oh, this is Jimmy James. How you doing over?
Speaker 1: Oh well, it's been happening on your side.
Speaker 7: Just do me all kinds of blue adventures.
Speaker 1: M hm. Hey, you guys.
Speaker 10: We're mentioning mass communication, and I have a question on that.
Speaker 10: I've heard that those short band radios can be heard
Speaker 10: all over the world. Could you broadcast from that?
Speaker 7: And is illegal? What's the deal with that?
Speaker 8: That's a very good question.
Speaker 1: I like this question, and I wish that I knew
Speaker 1: the answer. That might be something worth researching. I bet
Speaker 1: you want to. Now you've got something him to do.
Speaker 8: It's a good question to research that now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, soby.
Speaker 1: It could be worth doing.
Speaker 4: So Jimmy, you're talking about the shortwave radios, because I'm
Speaker 4: not sure what we're talking about. You're talking about ham
Speaker 4: radio or shortwave radio.
Speaker 7: H I don't know if if there, I don't know
Speaker 7: the difference between the two.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well, but I do, Yeah, go ahead.
Speaker 4: Well, I was just gonna explain. Look, there's shortwave and
Speaker 4: long wave radio in addition to AM and FM, and
Speaker 4: short wave radio has a lot of different frequencies. They
Speaker 4: do trend tend to travel very long. Like, if you
Speaker 4: get a good shortwave radio, we can listen to stuff
Speaker 4: almost anywhere on the planet if you have a good
Speaker 4: short wave radio and somebody has a decent transmitter, almost anywhere.
Speaker 4: I've tuned into people in Australia and way up in
Speaker 4: h you know, different parts of Russia and throughout the Netherlands.
Speaker 4: You know, sitting in you know, on the eastern coast
Speaker 4: of the United States with a short wave radio. Now,
Speaker 4: generally short wave radios don't have a broadcaster built in
Speaker 4: most of the pedestrian stuff. In the old days, we
Speaker 4: used to be able to go to radio shack and
Speaker 4: I know there's places online where you can get transmitters,
Speaker 4: but those transmitters are you know, you need a few
Speaker 4: skills to be able to operate them, some electricity and
Speaker 4: you know, basically what you have is a portable radio
Speaker 4: station that is absolutely legal, you know, and you have
Speaker 4: to set your own frequency. And short wave has the
Speaker 4: most available frequencies all over the world. But it's certainly
Speaker 4: not as popular a thing as it once was. But
Speaker 4: there are places, like there's a lot of short wave radios.
Speaker 4: People don't know this in Cuba that receive a lot
Speaker 4: of stuff. They don't have a lot of broadcasters, but
Speaker 4: they have a lot of receivers. So if you you know,
Speaker 4: put your signal out there and people find it, that's
Speaker 4: all there is to it. I mean, there's no way
Speaker 4: to really advertise for short wave radio or anything like that.
Speaker 4: It's like a crazy longwave CB radio, you know, except
Speaker 4: that most people don't have a handset to be able
Speaker 4: to talk on it, so you know, for that. Like
Speaker 4: I say, it used to be easy. You could go
Speaker 4: to radio shack and get you know, various types of
Speaker 4: radio broadcasters and and you could even set up a
Speaker 4: small FM, low powered FM in your own neighborhood, no
Speaker 4: problem with very common and fairly easy to assemble stuff
Speaker 4: from radio shack. But nowadays you'd have to hunt and
Speaker 4: find the stuff. You'd probably have to learn how to
Speaker 4: build it. I would have to go and review, even
Speaker 4: even though I've actually assisted in building some of these
Speaker 4: things before. And indeed, you could go buy a low
Speaker 4: powered AM station right now and be legally compliant in
Speaker 4: the United States. But if you wanted to be able
Speaker 4: to be heard all over the world at this point,
Speaker 4: you would need a shortwave to do it from a
Speaker 4: you know, an analog sort of old school broadcast perspective.
Speaker 4: Most people have abandoned this though, due to the access
Speaker 4: of the Internet.
Speaker 7: You know what I mean, right, But is it true.
Speaker 10: That you can actually pick up that radio with a
Speaker 10: crystal and not even have bautdaries.
Speaker 7: That's true. I think people are nuts not using this.
Speaker 4: I have not seen a setup that doesn't involve a battery,
Speaker 4: with the exception of one thing. There is a concept
Speaker 4: where you use like underground pipes and things almost as
Speaker 4: an antenna and receiver, and that requires no local power source.
Speaker 4: But I've never seen it demonstrated like really effectively over
Speaker 4: a long term. Like there's no like permanent thing you
Speaker 4: can tap into again without power for a long period
Speaker 4: of time in that weird network of like say, broadcast
Speaker 4: from you know, the pipes of the world. But it
Speaker 4: is theoretically possible. And you know what's funny is that
Speaker 4: you actually know somebody who has a pretty deep, deep
Speaker 4: set of knowledge in that hobby so to speak of
Speaker 4: like long wave short wave broadcasting around the world, that
Speaker 4: kind of stuff, and you don't even know it because
Speaker 4: he never talks about it. Larry Hancock is highly knowledgeable
Speaker 4: on this subject.
Speaker 7: You should get him to do it till one time.
Speaker 7: It's just about it. I bet there's a lot of
Speaker 7: interesting things about it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've actually uh pitched that as something i'd like
Speaker 4: him to cover, and he's you know, he said he
Speaker 4: told me basically, once he's done working on all these projects,
Speaker 4: that he would consider doing it. But oddly enough, he
Speaker 4: told me something along the lines that he doesn't really
Speaker 4: feel like a good enough expert to do a presentation
Speaker 4: on it. And I promise you he is, you.
Speaker 1: Know, interesting.
Speaker 7: Well, Man's probably the.
Speaker 1: Like for me the also we'll go No, it's okay.
Speaker 4: Larry's just very humble and realistic and you know, doesn't
Speaker 4: take the idea of his expertise or doesn't want to
Speaker 4: mislead anybody. He takes all that very seriously, you know.
Speaker 4: So even though I guarantee you he could teach classes
Speaker 4: on this, he won't unless he's super confident that he
Speaker 4: knows what he's you know, he's super competent by his
Speaker 4: own standards to talk about it.
Speaker 7: Well, I find it really interesting, and.
Speaker 10: I have a feeling that he's a long time user,
Speaker 10: so he don't matter what he used this thing during
Speaker 10: the Cold War.
Speaker 7: That alone, he's got interesting knowledge.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I don't want to speak about his background because
Speaker 4: I don't want to get anything incorrect about it, but
Speaker 4: I'll give you this hint. Definitely he was exposed to
Speaker 4: radio operations during his time in the military.
Speaker 8: So.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that makes sense.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I guarantee he's got expertise that people would
Speaker 4: not expect.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Maybe maybe everybody's looking in the wrong direction with
Speaker 1: like this TIC TAC and online stuff. It's the live streaming.
Speaker 1: Maybe it's all about going back to the old stuff
Speaker 1: and using the old radio equipment. I mean, I'm not
Speaker 1: even joking. I said maybe. I don't know who knows.
Speaker 11: It's possible, because then go back to these things sometimes.
Speaker 1: Why not do it the old way?
Speaker 4: See backward leaps? Yeah, good, I got a question for
Speaker 4: all of you guys, because backward leaps and technology. Aaron
Speaker 4: will have almost no idea about what I'm about to
Speaker 4: bring up. Uncle, but you'll remember that there used to
Speaker 4: be UHF channels, man, Yes, I do remember that UHF
Speaker 4: has been basically, you know, removed from use all the
Speaker 4: way around. Right, everything is pretty much either VHF or
Speaker 4: digital over the air or whatever now, But for people
Speaker 4: that can, you know, it's hard to find something that
Speaker 4: can receive a UHF signal now because UHF signals are
Speaker 4: being used for something else. Just like the CB band
Speaker 4: that I talked about, the Citizens Band was a lot
Speaker 4: of that was adopted and used for cell phones for
Speaker 4: tower transmissions.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 4: So the weird thing is, yes.
Speaker 7: Joe, you just did about that guy that just passed away,
Speaker 7: Michael Parratti. Yeah, was he the host of Alternative Views?
Speaker 4: I don't recall him being the host of any of that.
Speaker 4: He was a professor for years, kind of a radical
Speaker 4: left professor, but he was.
Speaker 10: I just brought it up because I could swear that's
Speaker 10: the guy in the eighties, and you brought uh, well,
Speaker 10: that's what I used to watch. Well, whoever the hosts,
Speaker 10: there's two of them have Alternative Views, and that name,
Speaker 10: I could swore that was the guy.
Speaker 4: But by the way, well I'll look that up some
Speaker 4: but I don't recall that in parenthes history. I remember
Speaker 4: his lectures and some of the stuff he wrote, and
Speaker 4: I found it inspirational. But uh, but again, he's kind
Speaker 4: of a controversial guy because he's extremely left wing.
Speaker 1: Even back then he was extremely left wing. Yeah yeah,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, big time. All sorts of interesting media people
Speaker 1: out there there.
Speaker 8: He's unseen green jumped off off subjects here.
Speaker 1: Okay, what do we need to be covering right now?
Speaker 1: What do we need to hit we own? I was
Speaker 1: into the Olympics thing, yes, and I know check one
Speaker 1: he is some things. Let's hear it that. It's this
Speaker 1: wee dancing too. For the women that they did, they
Speaker 1: got the gold, the free dancing women won the gold.
Speaker 1: They did. Okay, there we go, Good job free dancing team,
Speaker 1: women's free dancing team on your gold medal. You bring
Speaker 1: it home for the US, for us, thank you. What
Speaker 1: is free dancing? Uncle?
Speaker 8: It's the dancing.
Speaker 1: With just the posting, not with you're talking about it. Wait?
Speaker 1: Is this figure skating?
Speaker 8: Skating?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 8: Okay?
Speaker 1: Finished skating? Okay, there we go figure skating the free
Speaker 1: dance version of that. Yeah, okay.

Speaker 11: was hunt in this in the seat waiting to the
Speaker 11: last person to do and it was the Chinese goal.
Speaker 1: Was the last person left?
Speaker 11: Okay, she could have you know, gone over and beaten
Speaker 11: it then Junigun cool, but she did not.
Speaker 1: It was close. Me tell you that game was close.
Speaker 1: She pulled it out and the US got the gold.
Speaker 1: It's got the gold. Cool partner of the other one.
Speaker 11: She there was two ladies, yeah, and they were two
Speaker 11: in US ladies doing this and she was there for little.
Speaker 8: The first one. But she got beat with another person.
Speaker 8: I think it was the Chinese girl beat her.
Speaker 1: It's like an elimination thing, like you eliminated.
Speaker 8: Am elimination exactly what it is, and so and so.
Speaker 11: It was going on back and forth, and then came
Speaker 11: to the last two and it was the girl there
Speaker 11: got it any other one, and she badly, badly came
Speaker 11: back and won it.
Speaker 1: Okay, it was close, Okay, I never seen a contest
Speaker 1: that close.
Speaker 8: But it was then they they didn't win.
Speaker 1: It was this on today what they did the show.
Speaker 8: The end of the day.
Speaker 1: I think, okay, I think, okay, so, okay, we're doing
Speaker 1: the US doing pretty good.
Speaker 11: In hockey, hockey, hockey and figure skating, skating. One of boom,

Speaker 1: Snowboard it's called big air and they just have that
Speaker 1: giant ramp that they go off and they like spin
Speaker 1: like five times around.
Speaker 8: I don't know who took the Golden Net, even though
Speaker 8: I was watching it.
Speaker 1: Can you tell me about the skiing one? The skiing one, Okay,
Speaker 1: I'm not sure who won that. They have other competitions too,
Speaker 1: where they do like uh what used to be called
Speaker 1: the snowboard park and these old in the old days.
Speaker 1: They they have one of those where it's a course
Speaker 1: with all sorts of different uh obstacles, Like they have ramps,
Speaker 1: they have rails, they have like the set of different
Speaker 1: things and you go down, you do a routine where
Speaker 1: you do these different sets of tricks along the course
Speaker 1: and you're judged on your entire run.
Speaker 8: There was another thing to mention the US gool she
Speaker 8: got who Yeah, I seen it and she.
Speaker 1: Had to go to the hospital. Are you talking about
Speaker 1: the skier. Oh, yeah, I was early on. That was
Speaker 1: that was in the first week. I know for sure.
Speaker 1: I remember that every what's her name was it? Is
Speaker 1: it Lindsay Vaughan? Is that a skier? I think that
Speaker 1: was her? But yeah, she's this was not her first Olympics. No,
Speaker 1: she's like almost or about the oldest me I want
Speaker 1: to say, which is too old to be in the
Speaker 1: Olympics about your age, to be quite frank about it.
Speaker 8: Age now.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she got herself hurt so bad. It's how she landed.
Speaker 1: I think horrible.
Speaker 11: It's these things when they go down to slide and
Speaker 11: trying to put it down in the right position. Yeah,
Speaker 11: they have to put it down in the right position,
Speaker 11: otherwise you're going to handame accident.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean they're going down the hill at like
Speaker 1: eighty miles an hour or something.
Speaker 11: It's just it's just that way on skis, and on
Speaker 11: top of that being the snow coming down them, and
Speaker 11: they're trying to get this organized thing straight to do
Speaker 11: it right.
Speaker 8: It's having crazy.
Speaker 1: It's tough to pull off, you know. It's just I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, I I feel horrible for her.
Speaker 1: It's because it's a bad injury. They were saying at
Speaker 1: one point like they would maybe have to amputate her
Speaker 1: legos at that. I don't know that's going to happen,
Speaker 1: but it was. I didn't mention that at some point.

Speaker 1: My cousin told me that I didn't see it cours
Speaker 1: when I was watching it.
Speaker 8: When he did, and I said, whoa.
Speaker 10: I said, wait a minute, I snuck a battle bear
Speaker 10: once in a while and he was wearing ice scapes.
Speaker 7: Well, I can figure is it's just something the d
Speaker 7: n R did doing because they're really sick people.
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Wow, so many mysteries to unpack in this year's Olympics.
Speaker 1: I'll close. There's there's a lot going on.
Speaker 8: Uh, there's time mynhood of it. Don't follow him though,
Speaker 8: I mean, I never seen it happen. I didn't even
Speaker 8: see it. My cousin said he did, and.
Speaker 1: That sounds like something that might have happened. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Let's see here It's funny. It looks like I'm checking
Speaker 1: out the stream. We're still going out on everything. We're
Speaker 1: on TikTok or on YouTube or on Twitch, or on
Speaker 1: rumble or on the ocelly radio network. Oh, I should
Speaker 1: pull up the o'celly dot com chat room.
Speaker 11: Chit chat.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not a lot. It's just chucking the chat room now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, not a lot going on in my chat. But Jimmy, there,
Speaker 4: I got some links there to the TV show you mentioned,
Speaker 4: And uh, the internet archive has something like I don't know,
Speaker 4: two or three hundred shows that you could download off
Speaker 4: of that that particular TV show. It's right up your alley,
Speaker 4: the kind of stuff I would expect you to want
Speaker 4: to watch back then. Uh, but it was syndicated out
Speaker 4: of Texas, slowly but surely. It started out with one
Speaker 4: station and moved all over the country. Apparently I forgot
Speaker 4: about this show. I've seen clips before, but forgot about
Speaker 4: it myself. But there you go. There's the TV show.
Speaker 4: You can download it yourself, watch it. Ron Paul's on there,
Speaker 4: a bunch of different things, CIA, Covert Action, Uh, you know,
Speaker 4: the Kennedy assassination, I ran Contra, all kinds stuff on
Speaker 4: there if you want to check it out. Jimmy, Uh,
Speaker 4: did we lose him? Okay, sorry I didn't hear you. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but yeah, but Jimmy, just so, just so you know,
Speaker 4: I put the link in the chatroom Atchelli dot com
Speaker 4: for you to go ahead and follow up on that
Speaker 4: TV show and everything. Uh, and you can download a
Speaker 4: bunch of the shows off the internet archive.
Speaker 7: Okay, Yeah, So was that guy on that show or not?
Speaker 4: Well, I didn't find him as a guest in my
Speaker 4: initial searches, but it would make sense if he had
Speaker 4: been a guest at some point, not a host, but
Speaker 4: a guest.
Speaker 7: Well. Yeah, I used to watch it like all the time.
Speaker 7: It just jumped to my mind when you mentioned or
Speaker 7: uh chef.
Speaker 4: And they were a strange example of like an organ
Speaker 4: sort of syndication where they just kept adding cities. So
Speaker 4: examples of things you're never going to see again, you know.
Speaker 7: There we go.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's all about ticktak now, Okay, so we're
Speaker 1: gonna see what's on Tictac. We know that there's burning
Speaker 1: cacti in Tictac and people really love that, so we
Speaker 1: got that going for us.
Speaker 4: You believe.
Speaker 1: Those kind of things, Well, I mean, it's got fire,
Speaker 1: it's exciting, it's exciting short video, it's kind of contents too.
Speaker 1: I've been saying that short videos shorter better. Yeah, much
Speaker 1: been in the longest. Well, why don't we bring this up.
Speaker 1: Uncle Chuck had the idea to do a series of
Speaker 1: videos where we're talking about trading cards. Oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: and we're gonna do that.
Speaker 8: In fact, I got a mic.
Speaker 1: Behind this stand here, right, they're in here. I just
Speaker 1: put them up.
Speaker 11: The stands have some help trying to get them up here.
Speaker 11: I mean ILDs of them. There's loads of them.
Speaker 1: There's a whole box box bull So that's that's about
Speaker 1: what they call that is a box of content. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a box full of content right there. So we're
Speaker 1: going to get to work tomorrow and make some tic
Speaker 1: tac videos of your card collection. And let's see where
Speaker 1: that goes. Yeah, let's pull that up and let's see
Speaker 1: what happens with that. Cool.
Speaker 11: You can trying to do something with it. I would
Speaker 11: something would be interesting to do.
Speaker 1: That would be.
Speaker 8: And you got some old, old old baseball cart. I
Speaker 8: found this one that I showed you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a New York Nicks, a New York yankee.
Speaker 1: Oh that old old one. Yeah, yeah, I don't that
Speaker 1: one wants some money. Okay, maybe we could do a
Speaker 1: series of videos on that one card. I tend you
Speaker 1: on one cunt and you do a video of look
Speaker 1: I have this card, and then you could do another
Speaker 1: video like, oh this card, this player is buab blah
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah, and you can do
Speaker 1: another video on, oh, I'm looking this card up on
Speaker 1: e Bay, look what it's worth, And you can do
Speaker 1: another video on do you think we should sell this
Speaker 1: card or should we keep this card? So you see
Speaker 1: how the uh as I said, the box fall of content.
Speaker 1: You see how this works, right?
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, so I've I've had all those kinds back in.
Speaker 1: Actually in in Finta, I've had him. I've had a
Speaker 1: collection for a while. Oh well since then. Well, let's
Speaker 1: see let's see how uh how these cards do on camera,
Speaker 1: and see how camera friendly they are, and see if
Speaker 1: we get a lot of people looking at them.
Speaker 4: We're gonna find out, you find out, and a guy
Speaker 4: like me, you'll be interested to see, you know, some
Speaker 4: of the old met if he's got old Mets cards.
Speaker 4: You know, I used to have a massive collection of
Speaker 4: just the mets. Uh, And I had all kinds of
Speaker 4: wild stuff. I even had some of the nineteen sixty
Speaker 4: three fleer Car cards, which were really difficult to find.
Speaker 4: I only ever got like five or six of them,
Speaker 4: and they were all New York mets. Of course I
Speaker 4: bought them one at a time from different people.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: But yeah, and those cards, even with a no name
Speaker 4: guy on it or you know, have been worth money always.
Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean cool stuff like you might have
Speaker 4: cool stuff like that that you didn't even think of
Speaker 4: was cool, you know, and then people start commenting, they'll
Speaker 4: tell you about the card, or they'll you know, try
Speaker 4: and help you out with it or offer to buy
Speaker 4: it or trade it. You never know, I could work
Speaker 4: out Uncle Aaron cards.
Speaker 7: Did you mail me that glass?
Speaker 1: I have not, but I'm glad you asked. I'm going to.
Speaker 1: I've been well you've been been. Yeah, I will, I will,
Speaker 1: and I'm going to I'll pack it up this weekend.
Speaker 1: I will. I've been too late on that, but it's
Speaker 1: it's here for you, so thank you for asking. We
Speaker 1: will send it.
Speaker 10: In an unrelated question, if a guy I knew called
Speaker 10: the post office to set off kinds and nasty, horrible things.
Speaker 7: Is there anyway he can like delete that and reverse.
Speaker 1: H YouTube business? There's I mean, there's all sorts of
Speaker 1: ways to repent. There's all sorts of creative ways people
Speaker 1: can come up with them for ages. So I would
Speaker 1: say go back to the old standbys on that one
Speaker 1: and just apply it to the what's left of the
Speaker 1: United States Postal Service. Don't worry, it's not going to
Speaker 1: be around much longer. It's gonna be it's gonna be
Speaker 1: a subsidiary of Amazon within uh, you know, and give
Speaker 1: it seven years. Within seven years, it'll be just another
Speaker 1: property of Amazon. So for now, it's going to get
Speaker 1: no mail at all. Oh, you will get mail post Office.
Speaker 1: It's it's gonna be delivered in those Amazon delivery trucks.
Speaker 1: It'll be obviously.
Speaker 4: Your United States post Office brought to you by Amazon.
Speaker 1: For real. I'm thinking, just remember the guy who told
Speaker 1: you so well, not that if a while anyway, you
Speaker 1: know about this stuff, sadly I do. Yes, I know
Speaker 1: more than I head off too. But whatever, that's all
Speaker 1: another thing, uh, I mean, we got to have some
Speaker 1: way to mail baseball cards. If we're gonna mail I
Speaker 1: don't care. Guys. Really, it comes down to it. I
Speaker 1: guess right, Just as long as they get.
Speaker 8: There, I get this. So some of them, watch out.
Speaker 1: We're making more money than probably thinking.
Speaker 11: Then the shirt, then the shirts possible guarantee if this
Speaker 11: gets dounny good guaranteed.

Speaker 1: contest out of it.

Speaker 1: of cards. Yeah, that's a video. Yeah, see how easy
Speaker 1: it is now we can put it up. It's gonna

Speaker 1: That's the formula there for success. So we know how
Speaker 1: to do that, don't we know? And we will. It's
Speaker 1: very exciting, so look forward to that, everybody. Let's see
Speaker 1: hear the YouTube we got the different YouTube channels, the

Speaker 1: tech videos on YouTube, not every single one of them,
Speaker 1: but those of you who follow the YouTube channel can
Speaker 1: see some of the tic tech videos on there. So
Speaker 1: that seems to be working pretty good too. It's just
Speaker 1: you repost stuff on different platforms. That works so we're
Speaker 1: giving away all the Internet secrets for everybody who needs.
Speaker 1: We're becoming, uh, we're like those guys who have YouTube
Speaker 1: channels that tell you how to have a YouTube channel.
Speaker 1: We're becoming one of those things right now.
Speaker 8: You know, I might shake my neighbor too. I might
Speaker 8: shake him down the street.
Speaker 1: You shake down the neighbor. You see, if I talk him.
Speaker 8: About these baseball cards, you might be enjoying animal.
Speaker 1: Does the neighbor have baseball cards?

Speaker 4: weird compared to uncle stuff, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: We're definitely gonna cover lots. So Frank, He's gonna end
Speaker 4: up with some weird cards to start with.
Speaker 1: But are these Alan and Ginter's. These aren't vintage pieces.

Speaker 1: like things that came out in the nineties or something. No,
Speaker 1: brand new. I can't afford.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I can't afford to go shopping for older cards.
Speaker 6: Oh, I got.
Speaker 1: Collection.
Speaker 4: What's that?
Speaker 7: I got some desert store concerns, Chuck, if you want, we.
Speaker 4: Sure, like I said, I'll take any cards to start.
Speaker 1: I had those too. I had those, Jimmy, I had
Speaker 1: a whole set of them. I think from the nineties.
Speaker 1: I remember them. I think I saw some of my
Speaker 1: room in Pennsylvania. I do recall that. Hey, bringing them down,
Speaker 1: bring them down. Oh, you don't pay it to bring
Speaker 1: them down. I have to look for them next time. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I have to look for the desert now. I'm looking
Speaker 1: at cuts and Norman Schwartz cough card. That's what card calling.
Speaker 1: That's a good one. And they got all the different
Speaker 1: military vehicles like d M one A long, like a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff.
Speaker 4: I remember at a certain point those desert storm cards
Speaker 4: actually like they they got expensive before they went busted
Speaker 4: for a second. And uh, yeah, I don't think they're
Speaker 4: worth much now. But for a short time, there was
Speaker 4: like some super valuable like some weird thing that happened
Speaker 4: in the printing, so like certain ones were valuable for
Speaker 4: a little bit. But you know, as with most things,
Speaker 4: I mean, they crashed. H I'm also hoping that somebody
Speaker 4: promised to send me some Batman cards and some Kiss cards,
Speaker 4: but I haven't seen those yet. You know, they told
Speaker 4: me they mail them and they didn't. So we'll see.
Speaker 1: Batman and Kiss. That's pretty interesting.
Speaker 8: It we're getting into music man.
Speaker 1: So many cards are called. He can't keep tracking me.
Speaker 1: Different kinds of cards they make, trading.
Speaker 8: Kinds of cards.
Speaker 12: You know.
Speaker 11: I started with baseball cards and BET's going and I'm
Speaker 11: just putting things don launch like fine ten and then
Speaker 11: came back one about twenty cards. I just came collecting
Speaker 11: them and just doing it on the numbers. You flip
Speaker 11: the card over and you have the number there, go.
Speaker 1: By the number.
Speaker 8: By the number. Guys will get them. And that's how
Speaker 8: they did it. That's all I mean.
Speaker 1: I did it in the past. Sounds right, Yeah, just followed.
Speaker 1: You can't go wrong. Cards and my numbers. That's that's
Speaker 1: the old system. That's the old way of doing things.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be exciting to see what we in that box.
Speaker 1: I'm excited just thinking about it. So we'll do that. Well,
Speaker 1: might have to clean tables out there because I got lunch.
Speaker 8: We had to make way, man, make way and get
Speaker 8: some of this stuff out of the way.
Speaker 1: Boo, move away everything that they already have where you.
Speaker 11: Want to get this cuts outs are gonna have to do.
Speaker 1: That's a price to pay. Yeah, I used to play
Speaker 1: pin pay the play. That's how it works. This stuff.
Speaker 11: Move on the way, because we're gonna be doing it
Speaker 11: here right here, stuff's.
Speaker 8: Gonna be out of the way.
Speaker 1: Support work we're doing. Might have to do it on
Speaker 1: you side too. Probably we got a couple of desks
Speaker 1: we're saying here right. It's hard to tell on the video,
Speaker 1: but I'm at a desk and uncle's at a desk,
Speaker 1: and then the video turns out like, yeah, it's a
Speaker 1: great video that we have. Call we made this exciting
Speaker 1: the image.
Speaker 11: If I don't get a call for some of these cards,
Speaker 11: oh yeah, basies, they want to trade them, trade them.
Speaker 1: Call up to the show. Everybody, call up this show
Speaker 1: and listen to this think we're doing yeah, yeah, spell
Speaker 1: I mean calling for any reason, apparably a new reason.
Speaker 4: I'll tell you one thing especially would be interesting because
Speaker 4: he said eighty eight and eighty nine, and the first
Speaker 4: thing that jumped to my mind is there was a
Speaker 4: famous Billy Ripkin card in the flare, And I can't
Speaker 4: remember if it was eighty eight or eighty nine. Do
Speaker 4: you know anything about that, uncle.
Speaker 1: No, but I can look in the cords.
Speaker 4: Well, what happened is on the bottom Okay, on the
Speaker 4: bottom of Billy Ripkin's bat. Uh, he wrote some bad
Speaker 4: words and he didn't realize they were taking a picture, yeah,
Speaker 4: with his baseball card that day, and it became a serious,
Speaker 4: like a massive cz crazy thing in nineteen eighty eight
Speaker 4: or eighty nine, because they were super upset that there
Speaker 4: was curse words on the bottom of the guy's bat.
Speaker 4: And it was published clear as day, clear as day
Speaker 4: in the baseball cards.
Speaker 1: H they were they he could see it the woods.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you could see it, like on the bottom of
Speaker 4: his baseball bat. Like you ever see a pose when
Speaker 4: a baseball player is holding a bat over their shoulder
Speaker 4: and they're just standing there with their hands on the bat. Well,
Speaker 4: Billy Ripkin, if anybody looks it up, Billy Ripkin took
Speaker 4: a picture like that, a boring picture, and on the
Speaker 4: bottom of his bat was the F word and it
Speaker 4: actually said, you know F word face so and that
Speaker 4: was just on the bottom of his bat just all casual.
Speaker 4: Some people thought Ripken was trying to cause trouble on
Speaker 4: purpose and this and that, but it was a complete accident.
Speaker 4: He was angry at the bat and wrote that on
Speaker 4: the bottom and didn't even think about it when they
Speaker 4: were taking the picture of him, and it became like
Speaker 4: a scandal. Yeah, they recalled the cards. They tried to
Speaker 4: get him out and it became a famous error card.
Speaker 4: Later printings, they put a little black box over the
Speaker 4: bottom of his bat and it's obvious, like you know
Speaker 4: that they were blocking out the bad words on the
Speaker 4: bottom of his bat. So who knows, maybe you'll have
Speaker 4: one of those in your pile. Eighty eight or eighty nine.
Speaker 7: Who was the basketball player from the early nineties where.
Speaker 10: They just found out that that guy's rookie cards got
Speaker 10: the Menz brothers in the background, and now it's worth
Speaker 10: like a million dollars.
Speaker 4: Yep, that's another one.
Speaker 11: I got a based basketball too much, even hockey hockey cards.
Speaker 1: Hockey cards. There you go, there's a good stuff gold medal.
Speaker 1: All right. Well, I think we're getting towards the end
Speaker 1: of the show here, so I didn't even start winding
Speaker 1: things down. If I'm not mistaken. Yep, we're there. Do
