00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: When your old career gives you lemons throwing some ice

2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:09,839
mix in some vodka colored a podcast from the Mac

3
00:00:09,919 --> 00:00:13,599

Chrysler Dots. Gee Ram, It's Billified, the Bill Moran Podcast.

5
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:36,119
Speaker 2: Well, hello and welcome Bill's Mafia. Oh we're feeling good.

6
00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:38,240
The Bills are off to the best start since the

7
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,000
early nineties at eight and two.

8
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,799
Speaker 3: Right, yes, since the Kelly years, since the Kelly years.

9
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 2: This feels good. Josh Allen had his longest scramble of

10
00:00:46,359 --> 00:00:49,079
the year, a twenty one yarder, and he took off.

11
00:00:49,119 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 4: It looked pretty good.

12
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,679
Speaker 2: You know, I know, I know you're gonna give you

13
00:00:52,759 --> 00:00:55,079
all the reasons to feel bad. But they won thirty

14
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:57,600
to twenty. So why am I gonna listen to you? Why?

15
00:00:57,719 --> 00:00:58,600
Why bring me down?

16
00:00:58,640 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 3: Today?

17
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 2: You have to today. The NFL today is packing up

18
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:05,280
the entire crew and they're going to do the pregame

19
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,920
broadcast for CBS from high Mark Stadium in anticipation of

20
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:11,480
the Bills Chiefs next week. The Chiefs, on a very

21
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,560
lucky play, are now nine and Oh.

22
00:01:13,599 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 3: They had like eighteen guys block of that field goal.

23
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,079
Speaker 2: They went out there, they did it.

24
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:18,599
Speaker 3: Good for them?

25
00:01:18,719 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: It wins a win, right, win, win a win. That

26
00:01:22,599 --> 00:01:25,439
is the voice of Shortia. And if anybody saw it

27
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:29,799
ever spelled, they am I wrong. It's a Gaelic, isn't it.

28
00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:32,280
That's correct. Yeah, it's a farmer in English.

29
00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:32,719
Speaker 4: It does.

30
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:37,719
Speaker 2: Okay, Because so I have three sons and my oldest

31
00:01:37,719 --> 00:01:41,799
son has been studying Gaelic and he lives down in

32
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:45,040
Staten Island now and he's going to the Irish Center.

33
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,519
I don't know what burrow that's in, but he's going

34
00:01:47,519 --> 00:01:48,480
to take Gaelic class.

35
00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,079
Speaker 5: That's wonderful because you know, in recent times it seems

36
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,120
to be a language is almost dying.

37
00:01:54,239 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is.

38
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,359
Speaker 2: So it's really good to see it now on like

39
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:58,680
dual lingo and stuff. Yeah, due lingo. That's where he

40
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:00,480
was taking it, and then he wanted to go taking

41
00:02:00,519 --> 00:02:03,319
a person. I will tell you that a local high

42
00:02:03,359 --> 00:02:07,079
school here does offer Gaelic as an elective. Oh wow, yeah,

43
00:02:07,159 --> 00:02:10,319
McQuaid for regents. That's pretty cool. No, it's uh no,

44
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,599
I don't believe for regions because they don't they don't

45
00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:14,560
have regions in McQuaid.

46
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,439
Speaker 3: You don't. Oh no, they're they're cool.

47
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,879
Speaker 4: They don't have. It's not New York state, that's right.

48
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 6: You know, we're at a higher level than New York.

49
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,680
We're like McDonald's with the potatoes, our potatoes.

50
00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: Let me just say something that may they may be,

51
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:27,280
they may be.

52
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,400
Speaker 3: I've said this in a podcast.

53
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 6: I know McQuaid kids, I know Carnie kids, I know

54
00:02:32,759 --> 00:02:34,280
Finny kids, I know Acquian's kids.

55
00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:35,520
Speaker 3: And the only people I have ever had a problem

56
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:40,520
with her from Aquinas the only ones. Everybody else is cool.

57
00:02:40,759 --> 00:02:42,479
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you speak any Gaelic at all?

58
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:43,599
Speaker 4: Unfortunately?

59
00:02:43,719 --> 00:02:44,240
Speaker 2: Very little?

60
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's I speak fluent Portuguese, okay, only

61
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,039
because well you can get into the.

62
00:02:49,159 --> 00:02:51,879
Speaker 2: House the fluent Portuguese.

63
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:55,400
Speaker 5: So I know fluent Brazilian Portuguese, which is slightly different

64
00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,159
than Portuguese from Portugo or Angola or anything like that.

65
00:03:00,439 --> 00:03:03,840
But I'm what's called near native, so it's better than fluent.

66
00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:06,680
So when I speak Portuguese, a lot of people think, oh,

67
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,759
where are you from Brazil?

68
00:03:09,039 --> 00:03:14,719
Speaker 2: That's uh, that's SHORTIA SHORTIA is uh eight year Special Operations.

69
00:03:14,719 --> 00:03:17,680
And I don't know what J two HQ is because

70
00:03:17,719 --> 00:03:19,919
Danny sent me J two h Q and I couldn't

71
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:20,479
figure out.

72
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 5: What that was well, I guess in a broader sense

73
00:03:25,599 --> 00:03:29,840
of the word, J two is more like your guys' homeland,

74
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:34,639
so like anything that interests, anything of national interest. And

75
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:40,080
then HQ is more expansive. So any J two operations

76
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,360
that we were involved in would be homeland. That would

77
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,280
be you know, I don't want to use the word spine,

78
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,319
but you know, keeping an eye on.

79
00:03:48,439 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: People like the I RA or the I R n

80
00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:52,159
l A or all.

81
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:56,319
Speaker 5: There's different types of variations. A lot of drug trafficking

82
00:03:56,479 --> 00:04:01,280
and people trafficking on the border, on the border between

83
00:04:01,319 --> 00:04:03,080
Northern Ireland, and I.

84
00:04:03,039 --> 00:04:05,400
Speaker 4: Didn't realize there was Yeah, human.

85
00:04:05,159 --> 00:04:07,639
Speaker 2: Trafficking, Yes, there is a lot of kids.

86
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 4: Yeah.

87
00:04:09,599 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 5: And then h Q is more of a broader sense

88
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,759
of the term is where units, specialized units would go overseas.

89
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,120
Almost in a jasof operation was a joint special operations.

90
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:26,959
So I worked a lot with Americans, Australians, English, French,

91
00:04:27,399 --> 00:04:27,959
you name it.

92
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 4: That's interesting.

93
00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 2: Uh, well, let's let's let's go back. I I got

94
00:04:31,759 --> 00:04:34,399
a whole I want to ask them all the questions,

95
00:04:35,199 --> 00:04:35,519
all the.

96
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:38,959
Speaker 4: Questions, you know, but we'll start with but we'll start

97
00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:39,920
about his hotel.

98
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 2: The only Gaaleic I knew was my was my grandfather was.

99
00:04:45,319 --> 00:04:47,319
I would always say I think it was Poke mahole,

100
00:04:48,079 --> 00:04:49,199
painted my ass.

101
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,639
Speaker 4: Or kiss my kiss, kiss, That's what was pokem mahole.

102
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:53,959
Speaker 2: He used to always tell me go in there and

103
00:04:53,959 --> 00:04:54,560
say pokemohoon.

104
00:04:54,639 --> 00:04:57,959
Speaker 5: So you could say this Misha, which is I I am?

105
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:01,519
I am named? You know is Misha shore Chauvelin on?

106
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,120
Call this Adam dumb So mine I am named Shoria Brennan.

107
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:06,079
Speaker 4: What are you named?

108
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:07,759
Speaker 3: William? Right?

109
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 4: So it's Misha William the animal.

110
00:05:11,399 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: Well, actually, you know what's funny is like in Ireland

111
00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:17,279
Moran is morn right what Moran?

112
00:05:17,399 --> 00:05:18,319
Speaker 4: Oh Lauren?

113
00:05:18,519 --> 00:05:21,600
Speaker 2: And you almost like you know, my mom's Dolan and

114
00:05:21,639 --> 00:05:23,959
she would be Dolan over here. Her maiden name is Dolan.

115
00:05:24,319 --> 00:05:27,879
But when we came it's not Moran, it's Moran over here. Right, Yeah,

116
00:05:27,959 --> 00:05:31,040
that's it's it's a little strange. So where in Ireland

117
00:05:31,319 --> 00:05:33,879
do you do you hatch on the planet?

118
00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,920
Speaker 4: So I was born.

119
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 5: In Dublin, but I was raised in a very small

120
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:42,759
town called Arklo. It's only got about six thousand well

121
00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:46,120
now it's got fourteen thousand people in it. But when

122
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,600
I was a kid, there was only six thousand and

123
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,920
Dublin was about forty five fifty minute drug.

124
00:05:53,079 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: Well you're sort of a suburb then of Dublin, right, yeah, right,

125
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,079
if you compare it to America, sure, yeah, I mean

126
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,959
someone you could walk from one side of the other,

127
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:01,720
you know.

128
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, in our own you're fine.

129
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,959
Speaker 5: It's four hour drive from one side to the next, right,

130
00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:11,240
so it's tiny, you know. But at even today, there's

131
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,240
no hospital in my village. So if you're in well,

132
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,600
if you're in labor today, you'll go by ambulance. But

133
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:18,079
back in the day, you have to go by.

134
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 2: Train, by train in labor. How's to the hospital? When

135
00:06:22,759 --> 00:06:24,480
when you when you say back in the day.

136
00:06:24,439 --> 00:06:29,319
Speaker 5: Back in the seventies and eighties, really that's crazy to me,

137
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,000
which is what my mom did.

138
00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 2: She got on a train in labor. In labor, nobody

139
00:06:35,879 --> 00:06:37,920
had a car to drive, I guess.

140
00:06:38,199 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 4: No. Wow, Yeah, what did your father do? He was

141
00:06:42,759 --> 00:06:46,079
a carpenter. He's a master carpenter. Yeah, master.

142
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 2: Well he's retired, but yes, and what what what about mom?

143
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:49,879
Did she work?

144
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,600
Speaker 5: Well, she was young when she had me, so she

145
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:53,439
was still in school.

146
00:06:53,959 --> 00:06:56,720
Speaker 4: She was still in like high school. Yep.

147
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 2: Oh wow, Now see you and your mom grew up together.

148
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,560
Speaker 4: I mean basically, yeah.

149
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:06,160
Speaker 2: So then so you grow up, then what happens? Because

150
00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:08,600
Ireland doesn't have guns. I don't even think the police

151
00:07:08,639 --> 00:07:09,160
carry guns.

152
00:07:09,199 --> 00:07:11,720
Speaker 5: Correct, they have good you can get Yes, we do.

153
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,560
That's a common misconception.

154
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:14,319
Speaker 4: Or okay, you know.

155
00:07:16,279 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 5: So in Ireland they have a thing where you can

156
00:07:19,519 --> 00:07:23,399
either have a hunting license or a sporting license. Now

157
00:07:23,399 --> 00:07:25,800
you don't have a concealed carry license unless you're a

158
00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:30,040
detective or something like that. But you can get a

159
00:07:30,079 --> 00:07:33,079
license for any gun you want, for any caliber you want,

160
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:34,279
including suppressors.

161
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 2: It's very easy. It's like a two step process, easier

162
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,439
than here. Yeah, basically, well New York State, right.

163
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 5: Caveat caveat New York State. So you can you can't.

164
00:07:52,079 --> 00:07:54,040
So if you go to the range, you have to

165
00:07:54,079 --> 00:07:57,000
have it unloaded in your trunk and blah blah blah, et.

166
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: Cetera, et cetera.

167
00:07:57,680 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 4: But you can have guns.

168
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 2: Yes, so you you you graduate from high school?

169
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:07,319
Speaker 5: Yep, So I graduated from high school. I completed an

170
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,000
associate's degree in business management. Didn't really know what I

171
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,560
wanted to do with my life, and I opened a

172
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,759
Sunday newspaper and I saw a recruitment drive for the

173
00:08:16,839 --> 00:08:19,199
army and said that looks cool. So you joined the

174
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:23,360
Irish the Irish Army, right, okay, as an infantry meant

175
00:08:23,399 --> 00:08:23,959
at that time?

176
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 4: Okay, and what year was this? I was back in

177
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,879
two thousand, two thousands, so you're okay.

178
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:34,279
Speaker 5: And basic training six months there, okay, Wow, Yeah, it's

179
00:08:34,279 --> 00:08:34,960
a long time.

180
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: I think it feels like two years.

181
00:08:36,799 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 6: But I think the Marines is like eleven weeks, yeah,

182
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,759
or maybe like sixteen, but I mean that's still like

183
00:08:41,879 --> 00:08:43,080
like six months is a lot.

184
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:44,279
Speaker 3: Yeah.

185
00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:47,320
Speaker 5: And then at the end of that six months, it's

186
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:51,360
almost like your NCO, your non commissioned officer. You'll be

187
00:08:51,399 --> 00:08:54,120
a private, and then your non commissioned officer will be

188
00:08:54,159 --> 00:09:00,000
like Bill Cavalry Dan whatever, you know, amphibious.

189
00:09:00,039 --> 00:09:03,559
Speaker 3: Her journal is amphibious, I can't swim or whatever.

190
00:09:03,759 --> 00:09:06,639
Speaker 5: Right, Yeah, And so myself and a couple of other

191
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:11,279
guys were chosen to be reconeers, which is reconnaissance. There's

192
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:15,399
two types of reconnaissance. There's amphibious reconnaissance and there's your

193
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,320
regular reconeers who rock over mountains.

194
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,639
Speaker 4: Basically, what were you rockover mountains?

195
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:24,159
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, So do you end up in Afghanistan or anymore.

196
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 4: I wasn't in No, I was in mostly Africa.

197
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,279
Speaker 2: Africa, I have why Africa?

198
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,080
Speaker 4: What? What? What's Irish? Irish? So because it's it's so okay,

199
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,000
it's joint with probably who.

200
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 5: Exactly what I was going to say, Like I said,

201
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:42,519
it's the Joint Operations. So because it's a part of

202
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,279
the European Rapid Reaction Force. I think they changed their

203
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,360
name now to something like the European Battle Group or

204
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:53,879
something like that, it's it's a jaysuck unit. So what

205
00:09:53,960 --> 00:10:00,279
would happen is there's like this overall, you know, let's

206
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:06,000
say theme or interest will call it, and various governments

207
00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:09,720
will send their special units to that area to perform

208
00:10:09,759 --> 00:10:13,279
a specific task. What that task is depends on the mission.

209
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:19,759
Speaker 4: Okay. So our mission was reconnaissance, which is basically information gathering. Yeah,

210
00:10:19,759 --> 00:10:20,480
so you're like a spy.

211
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,320
Speaker 5: Not really, it's not the it's not the same, Okay,

212
00:10:23,559 --> 00:10:24,879
It's not like the series.

213
00:10:25,279 --> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 2: More like when you say, than reconnaissance, are you going

214
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,399
out to get the lay of the land of right thing?

215
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,799
Speaker 4: So we would probably right.

216
00:10:31,919 --> 00:10:35,399
Speaker 5: So if you're talking about your typical mission, you would

217
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,360
probably be dropped off fifty miles away from your your

218
00:10:39,399 --> 00:10:42,399
observation point, and you'd have to rook over the mountain

219
00:10:42,799 --> 00:10:45,039
reach your you know, you would mark rendezvous, so you'd

220
00:10:45,039 --> 00:10:45,919
say we'rend view one.

221
00:10:46,039 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 2: So something happens and you come back.

222
00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 5: Here, you go for another whatever twenty five miles you

223
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,240
say rendezvous to your market on your GPS or your map,

224
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,000
whatever you're using, so you'll always know that if something

225
00:10:57,039 --> 00:10:59,480
happens and someone just you know, does a signal, you

226
00:10:59,519 --> 00:11:01,679
know where to go if you get split up, so

227
00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,320
you'll eventually reach your forward operating point, your operations point,

228
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,480
and at that point, depending on the mission, it could

229
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:13,960
be to take photographs of an installation, an installation of

230
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,559
of a of a building with you know, who knows

231
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,480
who right or who knows what. A lot of the

232
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:24,240
times we would have to go with a long range

233
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,039
rifle just in case. Now we're not there to engage,

234
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:33,120
we're there to observe, report, return, hand it over. There

235
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,200
was some engagements, we'll say, oh yeah, we'll say that

236
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:44,360
with whom I lost somebodies, so Eritrea and Ethiopia, and

237
00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:46,759
it's in if you look it up now in the news.

238
00:11:46,799 --> 00:11:50,240
They're trying to work it out where you know, we

239
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,200
want to go back into talks because we want to

240
00:11:52,279 --> 00:11:57,840
use the harbor. So I don't remember if it's it's Ethiopia,

241
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,240
it's landlocked. And they asked Eritrea if they could use

242
00:12:01,279 --> 00:12:05,519
their port. They said no. Eight hundred thousand people died

243
00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:09,120
on the front, eight hundred thousand at the same time

244
00:12:09,159 --> 00:12:11,840
the Twin Towers fell, So nobody was interested in that.

245
00:12:12,159 --> 00:12:16,360
Everybody was watching the Twin Towers. So while iOS were

246
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,519
over here, you had almost a million people die over here. Yeah,

247
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:22,879
and so it wasn't really of public interest. You know,

248
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:28,840
Twin Towers is of course devastating, and of course you know,

249
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,159
deserved all the attention.

250
00:12:30,399 --> 00:12:33,440
Speaker 2: So how does this eight hundred thousand die, I mean,

251
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,039
that's a huge number. So they so.

252
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,320
Speaker 5: Ethiope said no, and they went to the front and

253
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:43,480
they just had massive cannons and they would just volley

254
00:12:43,519 --> 00:12:47,559
after volley after volley after volley, and eventually the numbers

255
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:49,200
racked up to almost a million people.

256
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:49,799
Speaker 2: Wow.

257
00:12:50,519 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 5: So then the United Nations at that point was Kofi ann.

258
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:01,120
We went, we went there and we basically went into

259
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:05,200
enemy territory and you know, observed report and went back

260
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:08,200
with that information. A lot of the times, Like I said,

261
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:12,039
we would have unwanted engagements, sure, because at some point

262
00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:14,879
you're going to be seen. Well, yeah, it's difficult not

263
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:15,519
to be seen.

264
00:13:15,919 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: I would think it's almost I don't know what the

265
00:13:18,399 --> 00:13:20,440
terrain is like, I would assume desert, like, no.

266
00:13:20,639 --> 00:13:24,600
Speaker 5: It's mountainous. Yeah, it has some cacti. Yeah, it has

267
00:13:24,639 --> 00:13:27,240
some grass, but not too much, so it's very hard

268
00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:27,639
to blend in.

269
00:13:27,799 --> 00:13:31,759
Speaker 2: I'm thinking almost like parts of the Rockies which you

270
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:35,120
get up into and it's desert climate or lass, it's

271
00:13:35,159 --> 00:13:37,080
desert shrubbery, it's desert growth.

272
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 5: You're talking one hundred and tendre in a day. Yeah,

273
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:43,000
the minute the sun goes down below the horizon zero.

274
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 2: Zero like that, are we talking celsius or fahrenheits heero

275
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:47,759
fahrenheit fahrenheit zero?

276
00:13:47,799 --> 00:13:51,679
Speaker 5: Oh, instantly, that's crazy, instantly, Yeah, And.

277
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 4: Then the minute the sun would rise up again instantly.

278
00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 2: So close to the equator. That's weird though, that it

279
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,519
would drop that much. It doesn't hold, doesn't hold anything.

280
00:13:59,639 --> 00:14:03,159
That's wonder your breadth straight away wow, oh yeah wow.

281
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 4: And you had to camp out in these conditions and.

282
00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, it depends on what was going on at the time.

283
00:14:08,919 --> 00:14:10,799
A lot of the times it would be a few days.

284
00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:12,440
Sometimes it could be weeks.

285
00:14:12,519 --> 00:14:14,279
Speaker 2: So how how long did you do this?

286
00:14:15,519 --> 00:14:21,039
Speaker 5: So the first deployment in Eric Trey in Africa or

287
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,120
Eric Chanding Ethiopia, I should say that was a year.

288
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you were over in Africa for a year.

289
00:14:27,559 --> 00:14:29,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, so you can do six months and then you

290
00:14:29,559 --> 00:14:31,120
have to re sign if you want to stay for

291
00:14:31,559 --> 00:14:35,000
another six months. Okay, So they contracted six months and

292
00:14:35,039 --> 00:14:36,639
then they said you want to do another one. You

293
00:14:36,679 --> 00:14:39,320
can say yes or no. The maximum you can do

294
00:14:39,399 --> 00:14:41,759
in one area is a year?

295
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:42,559
Speaker 4: Okay?

296
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:46,879
Speaker 2: Why why the only racy the only Well the reason

297
00:14:46,879 --> 00:14:49,159
I ask is sometimes wouldn't you want people who know

298
00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:53,080
the terrain and you're the area better in the right bureaucracy? Yeah,

299
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:55,480
it was always my thing with like even nom where

300
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:57,519
they would pull guys out after you. I mean they

301
00:14:57,519 --> 00:15:00,159
were the ones who survived. I knew how to do it.

302
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:00,440
Speaker 3: I think.

303
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:06,559
Speaker 5: Yeah, a lot of a lot of strange decision making

304
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:07,919
in the in the upper echelon.

305
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:08,720
Speaker 4: Yeah.

306
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 2: But and I wonder too, like what the psychological impact

307
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:14,960
of that is. Do they see on a more mass

308
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,200
scale that the psychological impact is such that we need

309
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:20,639
to probably let these guys go six months, maybe take

310
00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:23,720
a breather. Yeah, I don't know. I've never been in

311
00:15:23,799 --> 00:15:26,720
the army. I'm just thinking since that way, Wow, so

312
00:15:27,159 --> 00:15:28,559
you do that for an entire year?

313
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 4: What kind of shots and things do they like?

314
00:15:30,399 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 2: If anybody goes like I think my mom went on

315
00:15:32,360 --> 00:15:34,799
an African safari, right, and had to get a whole

316
00:15:34,799 --> 00:15:40,559
bunch of I don't know, typhoid fever, malaria, right, I mean,

317
00:15:40,639 --> 00:15:41,720
isn't there So.

318
00:15:41,639 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 4: It's before we were deployed.

319
00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, we got two shots on both inner ties. Yeah,

320
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,840
two shots in their shoulders. We asked what they were

321
00:15:51,039 --> 00:15:52,360
and they were told, don't ask.

322
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 2: Shut up seriously.

323
00:15:54,919 --> 00:15:55,159
Speaker 3: Yep.

324
00:15:55,279 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 5: And then every Monday, Yeah, we would take anti millaria

325
00:15:58,559 --> 00:16:04,279
pill called Larry And a lot of larium is being

326
00:16:04,879 --> 00:16:08,559
under investigation right now for what because a lot of

327
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:12,559
people who took larium when we'll use the word insane

328
00:16:12,799 --> 00:16:14,720
because I don't know, you know what political term you

329
00:16:14,759 --> 00:16:15,399
could use.

330
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:17,279
Speaker 2: Gets effective, who knows.

331
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 5: And they were institution institutionalized, they would be they would

332
00:16:22,639 --> 00:16:27,240
be in hospital forever because they would lose their minds

333
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:27,759
on this message.

334
00:16:27,799 --> 00:16:29,840
Speaker 2: So this was because and you had to take this

335
00:16:29,879 --> 00:16:31,440
weekly every Monday.

336
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, are they?

337
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,639
Speaker 2: They're obviously not still handing that out. That must be something.

338
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,679
So have you had any ill effects?

339
00:16:39,519 --> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 4: A lot of people don't.

340
00:16:40,519 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 5: I think it depends on your body choustry, yeah, your

341
00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:46,080
makeup and your brain and stuff like that.

342
00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 4: I mean it's the same with people.

343
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:52,639
Speaker 2: The purpose to everything, Jesus Christ. Just drink irish are

344
00:16:52,639 --> 00:16:54,559
and previous is what I'm saying. Is yeah, I mean

345
00:16:54,559 --> 00:16:57,720
they get the immune system of a sewer rat all that, right,

346
00:16:58,480 --> 00:16:58,639
you know?

347
00:16:59,559 --> 00:17:01,879
Speaker 4: I just Innos and a couple of Jameson's.

348
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,359
Speaker 5: Well, I could drink six gin us right now and

349
00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,599
I'd stay awake all night, all night. It has an

350
00:17:07,599 --> 00:17:08,440
opposite effect.

351
00:17:08,599 --> 00:17:11,559
Speaker 2: It's a weird thing. The ultimate warrior now, I just like,

352
00:17:12,279 --> 00:17:14,880
I just I either like the draft, and I know

353
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:17,640
it's different in Ireland it is, but I like the

354
00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:20,640
draft or from the can that's the closest thing I

355
00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,400
can get to the draft. I don't like the bottle

356
00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:25,200
and it doesn't taste as good to me, but I

357
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:26,519
could drink eight or nine.

358
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,039
Speaker 4: Of those and still be okay for a while, right yeah.

359
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,119
Speaker 5: And I love it as the best, but the best

360
00:17:32,240 --> 00:17:34,680
still not quite there and I don't know why.

361
00:17:35,039 --> 00:17:36,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, I wonder what that is.

362
00:17:36,039 --> 00:17:41,319
Speaker 2: I think the headquarters is in like Maryland or something here.

363
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:42,880
Speaker 4: There's somewhere in.

364
00:17:42,799 --> 00:17:46,079
Speaker 2: The Baltimore area, I thought. But anyway, that aside, So

365
00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:49,680
you do all this and you're over in Africa, you

366
00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:52,440
do after the year, you're you're out of there, but

367
00:17:52,519 --> 00:17:53,720
still in right.

368
00:17:53,799 --> 00:17:56,599
Speaker 5: So, because we're part of the European rapid reaction for us,

369
00:17:56,599 --> 00:17:59,640
we have to be ready on a twenty four hour notice.

370
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:02,440
And there's what's called green and black.

371
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 4: So which one's badass?

372
00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,240
Speaker 2: They're both, they're both there. They're both cowboys.

373
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:11,359
Speaker 4: Cowboys.

374
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:16,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, So usually so you would have your stuff in

375
00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,319
the trunk of your car or your cage back at

376
00:18:19,319 --> 00:18:20,240
the barracks.

377
00:18:19,839 --> 00:18:21,319
Speaker 2: Depends on what you prefer.

378
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,880
Speaker 5: You would be told, you know, get ready, we're doing

379
00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,319
a black mission. You know, you have to be at

380
00:18:28,319 --> 00:18:32,039
headquarters and so many you know, minutes or hours or whatever.

381
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:37,519
Now black would be something urban or what we used

382
00:18:37,519 --> 00:18:41,119
to call phibua fighting and built up areas, not CQB

383
00:18:41,599 --> 00:18:46,279
that's inside rooms, so larger than that. So you've got CQB,

384
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,279
you've got PHIBA. Now fighting and built up areas is

385
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:55,359
urban combat. That's very difficult because if you think about

386
00:18:55,359 --> 00:19:00,119
it right now in Syria it's Phibua. You're talking and

387
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:03,079
destroyed buildings and cracks of rounds going over your head

388
00:19:03,079 --> 00:19:04,319
and you have no idea.

389
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:04,759
Speaker 2: Where they're coming from.

390
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,319
Speaker 5: Right, So it's very difficult to identify where fire is

391
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:14,160
coming from. That's Fiboa. That's very difficult, Yes, very difficult terrain.

392
00:19:14,559 --> 00:19:17,960
Like I said, to identify where the shots coming from,

393
00:19:18,039 --> 00:19:21,279
I don't know, and take cover not concealment, because they're different.

394
00:19:22,559 --> 00:19:26,640
It's it's hard. And so that's a black mission what

395
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,640
they would call it. And then the Green mission would

396
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:32,640
be something in the mountains or something, you know, something

397
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:35,200
where you would have to use DPM, which is disruptive

398
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:40,160
pattern material. That's the fancy word for CAMO. So you

399
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,000
would have to use some DPM material. Depending on what

400
00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:46,079
type of terrain you're going to will depend on what

401
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:47,519
type of DPM you're using.

402
00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:48,759
Speaker 4: That's really interesting.

403
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,319
Speaker 2: So I think what I'm hearing as you're talking about this,

404
00:19:52,559 --> 00:19:55,559
or what I'm thinking is, boy, we don't know what

405
00:19:55,720 --> 00:19:59,200
goes on around the world. Absolutely, you know, I did

406
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:01,720
not know about eight hundred thousand At the same time,

407
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:05,359
no Ah.

408
00:20:04,559 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 4: Why would you?

409
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,039
Speaker 2: I guess you're right. I feel like now we maybe

410
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,880
we would a little bit more because the Internet is

411
00:20:11,519 --> 00:20:14,240
more prolific and people have it and the information gets

412
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,119
out a little quicker.

413
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:18,240
Speaker 3: Let me ask you that is I mean being in America,

414
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:19,960
Like is that a good thing for us or a

415
00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:21,480
bad thing for us? Or is it both?

416
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,279
Speaker 6: Meaning like you know, we're so sheltered to protect it

417
00:20:24,319 --> 00:20:26,480
at the same time, should we know these things that

418
00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:27,079
are going on?

419
00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,519
Speaker 3: Or are we better off not knowing? It? Is ignorance

420
00:20:29,599 --> 00:20:31,200
bliss Bliss.

421
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:36,519
Speaker 5: I think you know things that directly impact the United States,

422
00:20:37,039 --> 00:20:40,519
such as Ukraine and Russia. Yeah, North Korea blowing up

423
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,880
all their you know, exits and entries ways between the

424
00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:44,640
South and North.

425
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:45,880
Speaker 4: You know that kind of stuff.

426
00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:48,400
Speaker 5: Or Taiwan right now is kind of like if he

427
00:20:49,079 --> 00:20:51,920
you know, there's a lot of Russian battleships going into

428
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,279
the Red Sea or submarines off the coast of Alaska.

429
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,279
That's very important to know because you don't want to

430
00:20:58,319 --> 00:20:59,519
wake up with black.

431
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,759
Speaker 2: You know, as coming into your window. What's that and

432
00:21:01,799 --> 00:21:02,319
you're blind?

433
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 4: Right little?

434
00:21:03,519 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 2: Did you know it was a nuke? Right?

435
00:21:05,720 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 5: So now I don't believe that's going to happen. I

436
00:21:08,799 --> 00:21:13,400
think that's a fairy tale or like a doomsday you

437
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,920
know fantasy, you know where they're like getting off on

438
00:21:17,000 --> 00:21:20,200
you know, doom porn or whatever. But I do think

439
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:28,759
that knowing current let's say, geopolitical iffiness around the world

440
00:21:28,839 --> 00:21:32,279
that directly impacts America is very important to know. Now

441
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:34,759
that could be anything, that could be anywhere.

442
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:37,759
Speaker 4: Right, Israel and Iran? Right, Yeah, that was very important

443
00:21:37,759 --> 00:21:38,000
to know.

444
00:21:38,279 --> 00:21:41,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, but when you were doing all this stuff, like

445
00:21:41,519 --> 00:21:44,160
would they just drop you in so within twenty four

446
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,240
hours you could be sent into let's say, could you

447
00:21:47,279 --> 00:21:50,440
even be in Barcelona? Sure? Yeah, what I mean any

448
00:21:50,759 --> 00:21:55,880
city that ye? Yeah, absolutely? And who is the primary

449
00:21:56,200 --> 00:21:58,240
I'll call it the enemy? Who's a primary enemy? I

450
00:21:58,279 --> 00:22:00,000
would assume terrorism absolutely.

451
00:22:00,039 --> 00:22:00,440
Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah.

452
00:22:00,519 --> 00:22:05,119
Speaker 5: So if you remember back in the day when the

453
00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:09,400
place in Paris that was set on fire, yeah, Notre Dame.

454
00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:12,839
So Notre Dame was set on fire was obviously at it.

455
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 2: Was undirected, it was under renovation, so there was a

456
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,880
lot of wood exploded. Well most of it's made of

457
00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,519
wood anyway, but I thought there was under renovation too,

458
00:22:20,559 --> 00:22:22,599
and so it made it easier to get up into

459
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:23,720
the If you if.

460
00:22:23,599 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 4: You look at some videos, you know, conspiracy or otherwise.

461
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:29,079
If you look at.

462
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:33,000
Speaker 5: Them, you can see some interesting individuals walking around on

463
00:22:33,079 --> 00:22:36,920
top of there, and that kind of stuff would be,

464
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:40,200
you know, something where we would get deployed. Now I

465
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:44,000
say we, it's a team of two hundred, So they'll

466
00:22:44,079 --> 00:22:47,440
choose ten or twenty from every country and create this

467
00:22:47,599 --> 00:22:51,799
kind of battle group to make a European army if

468
00:22:51,799 --> 00:22:53,759
you want to call it that, right, they've been talking

469
00:22:53,759 --> 00:22:55,599
about that for years. They want to make it bigger.

470
00:22:55,759 --> 00:22:59,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, a European army, more of a joint European army, right.

471
00:22:59,039 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 5: Yeah, because every country has a different you know, capacity, capability,

472
00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:09,599
or they're very specialized. Like the Norwegians are fantastic when

473
00:23:09,599 --> 00:23:10,400
it comes to snow.

474
00:23:11,279 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, right, and you can see

475
00:23:13,759 --> 00:23:17,519
him on absolutely which sounds funny, but you're right as

476
00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:19,599
the terrain they're used to. Absolutely.

477
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,599
Speaker 6: Yeah, going to a Bills game in the parking lot, Yeah,

478
00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:27,279
they get right, exactly, Mustard, the ketch up, the snowballs,

479
00:23:27,319 --> 00:23:27,880
they got it all.

480
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 2: So how many years do you do in this before

481
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,240
you leave or retire?

482
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:36,319
Speaker 4: Eight years in total?

483
00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,799
Speaker 2: You did eight years in total and then you retire.

484
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,240
Why honorably discharged honorably discharged injured.

485
00:23:44,759 --> 00:23:47,319
Speaker 5: No honorably discharge of my own according You're good, You're

486
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:48,640
just like, yeah, I'm done.

487
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:48,319
Speaker 3: Yeah.

488
00:23:48,759 --> 00:23:50,799
Speaker 5: Okay, So you do a five year contract and you

489
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,279
do too to to to to to.

490
00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 2: You can never do.

491
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 4: Five five five five fight, you know.

492
00:23:54,559 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, And I'll bring this up to Unfortunately we do

493
00:23:59,039 --> 00:24:00,200
not have a v A.

494
00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they got to do something for these guys.

495
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:05,319
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's bad.

496
00:24:05,599 --> 00:24:08,039
Speaker 5: It's like you kind of feel like there should be

497
00:24:08,079 --> 00:24:12,279
something and there really isn't, and it's like, why why

498
00:24:12,279 --> 00:24:15,039
don't we have that? I mean, there are guys out

499
00:24:15,079 --> 00:24:17,799
there a PTSD, right, I mean you know, it's like

500
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,920
we never you know, it's funny damaged hearing or something

501
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:22,519
and from the military.

502
00:24:22,519 --> 00:24:25,680
Speaker 2: Sure, and they deserve We certainly talked about that in

503
00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,640
the United States. I've never really thought about other countries.

504
00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:31,400
I guess I just assumed it was there. But I

505
00:24:31,519 --> 00:24:34,960
watched the Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary and he talked about his

506
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,039
father being you know, and they were defeated. It was

507
00:24:38,079 --> 00:24:42,160
austri Yeah, and Austria was defeated in the war, and

508
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,880
how angry and drunk and these guys and how that

509
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:49,839
psychologically just affected them, not just the war but also

510
00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:52,279
the fact that they lost. The war was such an

511
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,119
emasculating thing, and I never thought of it that way.

512
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,400
And he talked about the drinking and the anger and

513
00:24:57,440 --> 00:24:59,920
all the stuff that would go on, which the sound

514
00:25:00,559 --> 00:25:02,079
I guess typical for PTSD.

515
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:03,039
Speaker 4: But still about the.

516
00:25:03,039 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 2: First World War, the second one, I believe Arnold would

517
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,880
have been Arnold's a boomer.

518
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, it might have been the second one.

519
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, But like I mean, Austria was a big I think,

520
00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:14,079
a bigger player in the First World War.

521
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,960
Speaker 4: What they also wanted to be a Yeah, they were

522
00:25:19,039 --> 00:25:20,920
part of they were part of Germany.

523
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:22,759
Speaker 2: All right, well we'll take them on because then I

524
00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:24,799
want to find it out what happens next and how

525
00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:29,039
Brazil comes into the picture and how many years and

526
00:25:29,079 --> 00:25:34,319
then lots of questions about from your perspective, America, which

527
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,240
I think is very.

528
00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:37,559
Speaker 4: I think it's always interesting.

529
00:25:37,559 --> 00:25:39,119
Speaker 6: But we'll get to all Can we make fun of

00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:46,240
fucking songs no more. There's some recording where he yelled

566
00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:49,400
at everybody who's this. This is Van Morrison. Somebody got

567
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,799
brown eyed girl or something at a concert on So

568
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,079
he says, I don't play those fucking songs no more,

569
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:55,920
screamed at them.

570
00:27:56,079 --> 00:27:58,960
Speaker 3: So Van Morrison and the Doors used to play together.

571
00:28:00,519 --> 00:28:02,680
Speaker 6: Was it the Roxy or was it cb G one

572
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,759
of those no the whiskey in l A. They used

573
00:28:05,799 --> 00:28:09,079
to play together like weeks at a time. Van Morrison

574
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,920
would play before the doors or they don't put for

575
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,480
him back and forth, Oh yeah, huh Van Morrison, followed

576
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:15,359
by Jim Morrison.

577
00:28:15,599 --> 00:28:19,039
Speaker 5: For some of you younger people out there who like Josier, Yeah,

578
00:28:19,079 --> 00:28:20,319
he's from Wicklow.

579
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,240
Speaker 2: Okay, oh I forgot Okay, how do you say it?

580
00:28:24,319 --> 00:28:27,480
Speaker 4: Jose A Yeah, Okay, that's not his actual name, though.

I think people called Michael Yeah, yeah, Michael Hosier.

582
00:28:31,599 --> 00:28:41,359
Speaker 2: I think Hosier Yeah yeah, okay, okay, that's right. I

583
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:43,279
always go a little more of the old school, although

584
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,319
I will tell you I think one of the most

585
00:28:45,599 --> 00:28:49,160
underrated rock bands didn't have many hits, but they were

586
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:53,480
from Ireland. Then Lizzy Whiskey in the Jar he got

587
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:57,559
a statue. Yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure it was a

588
00:28:57,559 --> 00:28:59,359
great Jim break. They were great.

589
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:01,200

596
00:29:12,279 --> 00:29:14,480
Speaker 6: Sure, there is a documentary on everybody now on YouTube.

597
00:29:14,799 --> 00:29:16,200
It's probably a documentary on you.

598
00:29:18,319 --> 00:29:22,519
Speaker 2: Suresha is Suresha needs one because that so what was

599
00:29:22,559 --> 00:29:24,160

00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:25,920
You were in the I don't want to say the

601
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,400
Irish Army, but you were part.

602
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,839

605
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:39,519
Speaker 4: Why Brazil?

606
00:29:40,079 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 2: Well, when I left the army, only because the weather's

607
00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,359
always shitty in Ireland, I would assume.

608
00:29:45,119 --> 00:29:47,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, two and twenty days year it rains, that's about

609
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:50,759
its August you might get some sun.

610
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 2: I remember talking to some guys from Scotland who were like, yeah,

611
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,480
there was in the summer it was like really cold,

612
00:29:57,559 --> 00:29:59,480
rainy in the morning, we got some sun, we had

613
00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:02,119
our shirts off and then by five four o'clock we're back,

614
00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:03,319
you know, because it's.

615
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:06,599
Speaker 5: Just everybody goes around backpacks with their range jackets inside,

616
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,240
or a small telescopy umbrelah because.

617
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:09,319
Speaker 2: You never know.

618
00:30:09,359 --> 00:30:14,799
Speaker 5: It's like Rochester four seasons, one day and construction. But

619
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,839
so ill you know, I was honorably discharged from the

620
00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:19,680
Army on their my own, you know, I said, I

621
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,319
you know, that's it. Army life is no longer for me.

622
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:27,000
A lot of my friends did the same thing. Side

623
00:30:27,039 --> 00:30:30,240
note one went on to become French Foreign Legion Commander

624
00:30:30,559 --> 00:30:34,119
Kevin Brannan. No cousin but no brother, SAME's her name,

625
00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,359
last name, whatever you sit here. He went on to

626
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,920
be a p J commander, which is a paramedic jumper

627
00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:42,200
with the.

628
00:30:42,119 --> 00:30:44,079
Speaker 4: French fear Leager, the French Foreign Legion.

629
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:48,359
Speaker 5: Yep, he's a tough dude. He had to retire because

630
00:30:48,359 --> 00:30:51,440
he's got myer charditis from the shot, but.

631
00:30:51,319 --> 00:30:55,279
Speaker 4: We won't all really. Yeah, he shot to go to Africa. No,

632
00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:01,960
the COVID shot, the Kelsey shot and uh atrial fibrillation,

633
00:31:02,039 --> 00:31:03,640
so he couldn't walk from here to there without being

634
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,200
out of breath.

635
00:31:04,759 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 5: Now here to day it's five meters for those who

636
00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:12,759
are not you know, watching, So he had to retire unwillingly,

637
00:31:12,839 --> 00:31:15,359
but he had to because he couldn't operate anymore. My

638
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:19,720
other friend, Robbie Walsh, has gone on to become quite

639
00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:22,480
a successful director of movies in Ireland and he's had

640
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:26,759
some movies showcased in cons Film Festival, so he's doing

641
00:31:26,799 --> 00:31:29,759
really well for him and he's doing really nice. Sometimes

642
00:31:29,759 --> 00:31:30,599
he visits New York.

643
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:33,119
Speaker 4: Maybe you could have him on the podcast, I don't know. Wonderful.

644
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 5: So after I left the Army the European rapp reaction.

645
00:31:38,519 --> 00:31:40,839
Of course, I had a.

646
00:31:40,839 --> 00:31:42,519
Speaker 4: Lump sum of money.

647
00:31:42,599 --> 00:31:46,799
Speaker 5: Now Euros can go only so far in the European Union,

648
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:51,240
but in a third world country they can go really far.

649
00:31:51,799 --> 00:31:55,200
So I had this chunk of money. I did meet

650
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,559
a girl, thought I was in love, wasn't. But there

651
00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:03,480
that's okay, Brazilian girl and she said, you know, we

652
00:32:03,519 --> 00:32:06,319
should go to Brazil. And I'm like a gypsy, I'm like, sure,

653
00:32:06,359 --> 00:32:10,359
why not, you know, or a knacker as they're calling Ireland.

654
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:13,000
So I'm like, yeah, sure, why not? And I took

655
00:32:13,039 --> 00:32:15,160
my lump sum of money. I paid off all my debts,

656
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:21,000
sold my BMW, and I moved to Brazil. And when

657
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,079
I first got there, I wasn't sure what I wanted

658
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:26,319
to do, you know, I'm like, why can a you know,

659
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:30,279
quote unquote gringo, which is not a derogatory term by

660
00:32:30,279 --> 00:32:32,680
the way, that just means it literally means outsider.

661
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 6: I was just gonna say, like he then the Bible

662
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:38,359
people think it means like a sinner or not. It

663
00:32:38,359 --> 00:32:41,359
means nations like a gentile basically, all right, they're taking

664
00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:42,240
the term and twisted it.

665
00:32:42,319 --> 00:32:44,880
Speaker 5: Sure, of course, just like the rainbow, and Noah, we

666
00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:50,839
won't get into that, right. So we we had this

667
00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,559
lump of money, and I said, well, what can I

668
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:58,440
do in this country, you know besides military or police

669
00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:03,119
you know, alio stuff, law enforcement officer stuff that would

670
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:07,359
make me a significant amount of money. Well, I said,

671
00:33:07,599 --> 00:33:11,160
there's a lack of English as a second language schools

672
00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,599
in the countryside. Now, in San Paulo City, Hio Di,

673
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,279
Jeneiro City, all those big cities, there's abundance of places

674
00:33:19,319 --> 00:33:24,640
you can go study. However, in this small in Tedior

675
00:33:24,759 --> 00:33:27,680
as they're called the Interior state part of the States,

676
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:32,279
there was a lack of that. So, you know, I

677
00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:37,039
researched some places where there higher income, like middle to

678
00:33:37,079 --> 00:33:40,720
upper class people, and I said, Xiaou is the name

679
00:33:40,759 --> 00:33:43,200
of the city. I said, Jiaou is perfect because there's

680
00:33:43,440 --> 00:33:46,160
no English school there and there's a lot of affluent

681
00:33:46,200 --> 00:33:48,119
people there that's open there.

682
00:33:49,079 --> 00:33:50,079
Speaker 2: We did it.

683
00:33:50,079 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 5: It costs about one hundred thousand to build it, do

684
00:33:52,799 --> 00:33:54,400
it up, you know, make it the way it was,

685
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:59,319
and we had I want to say, it fluctuated between

686
00:33:59,799 --> 00:34:03,400
two two hundred, two hundred and fifty students a year.

687
00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:07,319
Each student paid the twelve hundred dollars bi annually.

688
00:34:07,839 --> 00:34:08,599
Speaker 2: You do the math.

689
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 4: We're making great money, like big money.

690
00:34:12,559 --> 00:34:17,599
Speaker 5: And after a few years, you know, I said, what

691
00:34:17,639 --> 00:34:22,079
can we do to even push further and make this

692
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:26,519
school better. Well, we had a teacher who had lived

693
00:34:26,519 --> 00:34:29,800
in California for I think seven years, and so she

694
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,760
was familiar with the territory I'm sorry, Florida, not California

695
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:38,920
other side. So we asked her if she could represent

696
00:34:39,079 --> 00:34:44,440
us by going to Florida and meeting Disney executives. So

697
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:48,320
we struck a deal with Disney because our kids' books

698
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:52,280
needed that extra oomph. And if you use the silhouette

699
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,840
of Mickey Mouse's Ears, you your family, your family's family,

700
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,119
your generations of kids are fucked because they're gonna to

701
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,880
the ship out of you. Right, oh, Disney, Oh yeah,

702
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:07,079
even if you did this, you know.

703
00:35:07,079 --> 00:35:11,320
Speaker 2: But it is very popular in Brazil absolutely, because my

704
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,119
brother was an economic forecaster for Disney and so they'd

705
00:35:15,199 --> 00:35:17,400
have to see where it was coming from, and the

706
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:20,400
Brazil was a huge place. England was a huge place

707
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,119
that they would come to Orlando and you would see

708
00:35:23,639 --> 00:35:27,079
trips like a big flag and they'd be all getting around.

709
00:35:27,079 --> 00:35:27,760
They were from Brazil.

710
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,960
Speaker 5: That's a status symbol, just like an iPhone in Brazil.

711
00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:35,000
Haven't gone to Disney as a trip is also a

712
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:37,159
status symbol. If you can tell your friends, I've been

713
00:35:37,199 --> 00:35:39,760
to Disney. You've been one, you know one notch up

714
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:40,400
in the status.

715
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 4: Gotcha. So we wanted that for.

716
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:45,760
Speaker 5: The books, so we struck the deal. They gave us

717
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,800
the deal. They didn't want any royalties. We put this

718
00:35:49,159 --> 00:35:51,079
like all their characters on our kids books, you know,

719
00:35:51,159 --> 00:35:56,639
Donald Dot, Mickey Mouse, the whole Classic crew, and wasn't

720
00:35:56,679 --> 00:36:02,760
satisfied with that, so contacted Cambridge University. Struck a deal

721
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:07,400
with those guys. Took a while so that their final exam,

722
00:36:07,519 --> 00:36:09,480
so if they go through the whole course, which is

723
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:12,559
about five years and change, the very final exam is

724
00:36:12,559 --> 00:36:16,679
a Cambridge University English exam. It's called my first certificate.

725
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,760
Because we didn't want an exam certificate that was only

726
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:23,800
valid in Brazil. We wanted something that they could have

727
00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:29,920
and use if they wanted a scholarship somewhere, so that

728
00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:35,320
entitled them to have some type of international recognition. So

729
00:36:35,519 --> 00:36:39,800
that was also a standout thing about our school like

730
00:36:39,880 --> 00:36:40,719
nobody else had that.

731
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:48,400
Speaker 2: How do you go about teaching English, like I mean right, well,

732
00:36:48,639 --> 00:36:54,280
because now you're one, you're in a Ireland primarily speaking English,

733
00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:55,880
maybe a little bit of Gay like I don't know,

734
00:36:56,519 --> 00:36:59,480
and then you go to Brazil where it's Portuguese, but

735
00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,639
it's just slightly different Portuguese just because of where it is,

736
00:37:03,159 --> 00:37:05,280
and you have to learn that language to communicate to

737
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,039
the people in this and then a lot of times

738
00:37:08,039 --> 00:37:10,880
when you're teach I don't know about. My sister's a linguist.

739
00:37:11,119 --> 00:37:13,840
She has a doctor in linguistics, and she went over

740
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,320
to China and taught in Shanghai. And my dad actually

741
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,280
was an English teacher and he went over and taught

742
00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:23,920
and I think in there too, aren't there like I

743
00:37:24,159 --> 00:37:29,000
don't know. Is it English and grammar and absoluteating verbs?

744
00:37:29,079 --> 00:37:29,199
Speaker 1: Oh?

745
00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:29,760
Speaker 2: Absolutely?

746
00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 5: Because in English in Portuguese they don't have do you

747
00:37:35,599 --> 00:37:38,000
like so? Didn't never they never start to question with

748
00:37:38,119 --> 00:37:42,280
do so trying to explain that yeah, sometimes can be difficult,

749
00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,719
especially for kids, you know, because they use intonation.

750
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:47,079
Speaker 3: Ah.

751
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,679
Speaker 5: So if it's a declaration, we'll say gossip jagua you

752
00:37:50,800 --> 00:37:54,280
like water? Yeah, we'll say gassig jagua, yes you like

753
00:37:55,039 --> 00:37:59,480
so there's all the only difference is the intonation. The

754
00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,280
intonation the only difference between a question and an affirmation.

755
00:38:03,639 --> 00:38:06,360
I see, okay, and English doesn't have that.

756
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:07,960
Speaker 3: The bill suck, the bill suck.

757
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:12,400
Speaker 4: You got it perfect, Look at you learning?

758
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 6: Yes, I'm ready for my certificate with the mouse on it, right,

759
00:38:17,119 --> 00:38:20,559
your first certificate blue red.

760
00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:24,480
Speaker 5: But then these really difficult questions would come up where

761
00:38:24,519 --> 00:38:26,840
I would have to think about it because I've never

762
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:29,679
been asked, you know, like what's the difference between underneath

763
00:38:29,679 --> 00:38:32,800
and beneath? I'm like, holy moly, yeah, you know, and

764
00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:37,000
I don't have to describe sometimes not always in Portuguese.

765
00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,519
What's the difference between beneath and underneath? You know, one

766
00:38:39,639 --> 00:38:42,840
is below the surface, you know, like underneath the table

767
00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:47,320
it's a surface, and then underneath is just you know,

768
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:48,480
how long.

769
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 2: Into your trip to Brazil did you open the school

770
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,559
or about a year? About a year? About seven months?

771
00:38:54,639 --> 00:38:57,519
And how long did it take you to learn Portuguese fluently?

772
00:38:57,559 --> 00:38:58,159
Three years?

773
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 4: Three years? So you open it's not fluently.

774
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:05,360
Speaker 5: Correct, right, But I had teachers, I had staff, I

775
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:08,599
had you know, I had receptionists, I had.

776
00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:09,360
Speaker 4: A whole full crew.

777
00:39:09,679 --> 00:39:13,760
Speaker 5: Okay, So at the start I only took advanced English

778
00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,880
people because they could speak pretty.

779
00:39:16,559 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 4: Good English as it as it was.

780
00:39:18,039 --> 00:39:19,920
Speaker 5: You know, I didn't have to go into detail about

781
00:39:20,199 --> 00:39:24,320
you know, teacher, what's the meaning of get right? I'm like, well,

782
00:39:24,360 --> 00:39:26,679
that's the only word in the dictionary with seven pages

783
00:39:26,679 --> 00:39:27,360
dedicated to it.

784
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:28,360
Speaker 2: Let's start, you know.

785
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:33,159
Speaker 5: Right, It's like those people have already got the basis

786
00:39:33,159 --> 00:39:36,920
and the foundation to where they're I won't say only,

787
00:39:37,199 --> 00:39:40,320
but they're looking for more conversational, right, They're looking for

788
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,239
more slang.

789
00:39:41,519 --> 00:39:42,360
Speaker 2: Yes, right.

790
00:39:43,119 --> 00:39:45,840
Speaker 4: And so although you do follow a protocol and.

791
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:51,800
Speaker 5: The book, you know, to get level to pass.

792
00:39:51,679 --> 00:39:53,360
Speaker 2: Did you have to write curriculum and everything?

793
00:39:53,679 --> 00:39:57,400
Speaker 4: No? So, uh well that's not true.

794
00:39:57,679 --> 00:40:03,519
Speaker 5: So this organization cool down North Americano, it's American North

795
00:40:03,559 --> 00:40:08,119
American culture is a kind of a.

796
00:40:07,679 --> 00:40:09,320
Speaker 2: Franchise, but not a franchise.

797
00:40:09,760 --> 00:40:13,920
Speaker 5: And so they would consult me on how to structure

798
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:15,000
their books and how.

799
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:18,119
Speaker 4: To structure their tests. Ah, but I would also.

800
00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:21,000
Speaker 5: Use those sure, So it was kind of like a mutual.

801
00:40:20,599 --> 00:40:25,400
Speaker 2: Agreement, quick quick pro quell as we said, right, right, okay,

802
00:40:25,480 --> 00:40:26,239
all right? And so.

803
00:40:28,239 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 5: Teaching English also helped me understand English better. Sure, I

804
00:40:33,599 --> 00:40:37,519
learned myself too. Yeah, I was teaching myself.

805
00:40:37,639 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, like the passive voice, the active voice got You know,

806
00:40:43,199 --> 00:40:46,280
you don't really learn that in Ireland. No, I don't

807
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:47,039
think you really.

808
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,440
Speaker 3: Right, you learned the past of an active swear words,

809
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:52,519
do you?

810
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,679
Speaker 2: Uh? So you do that for how many years? Twelve years? Yeah,

811
00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:00,599
just under thirteen years, just under thirteen years, and you're

812
00:41:00,599 --> 00:41:01,800
with that woman the whole time.

813
00:41:02,079 --> 00:41:05,559
Speaker 5: No, we're we were estranged. Strange, Yeah, I was. I

814
00:41:05,639 --> 00:41:07,320
was ready to come home on the third year.

815
00:41:08,119 --> 00:41:08,719
Speaker 2: I was done.

816
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:09,519
Speaker 4: You were done?

817
00:41:09,639 --> 00:41:12,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, but what made you stay this school? The school?

818
00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:14,159
The school was doing so well?

819
00:41:14,239 --> 00:41:16,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was like, did you like Brazil?

820
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:19,920
Speaker 2: I didn't. I didn't, Okay, No, I mean I don't

821
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:20,719
know much about it.

822
00:41:20,760 --> 00:41:23,639
Speaker 5: I hear different lot of a lot of myth, a

823
00:41:23,679 --> 00:41:26,360
lot of folklore, and they say it's dangerous. In the

824
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:30,440
thirteen years I lived there, never once, even at nighttime

825
00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:33,800
walking on the street alone, did I ever feel in danger?

826
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:34,239
Speaker 2: Ever?

827
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:34,599
Speaker 3: Oh?

828
00:41:34,639 --> 00:41:36,320
Speaker 2: Really, never ever?

829
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:36,559
Speaker 4: Ever?

830
00:41:36,599 --> 00:41:38,639
Speaker 6: Because your wife told me that, she said, like everything

831
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:40,400
in Brazil is designed to kill you.

832
00:41:40,599 --> 00:41:41,159
Speaker 3: Is that true?

833
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:42,039
Speaker 2: Yes?

834
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:44,840
Speaker 4: Okay, Like now that's a different thing.

835
00:41:45,000 --> 00:41:45,280
Speaker 3: Okay.

836
00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:47,880
Speaker 5: So in the morning I would open up my bathroom

837
00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:50,559
and there's like ten scorpions on the ground. Oh so

838
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,239
I'm like playing whack them all with scorpions. Okay, but

839
00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:56,039
then you would have to find the mom who's asexual.

840
00:41:56,159 --> 00:41:58,440
She can just pop them out anytime she wants. So

841
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:00,920
you have to find the mom who can, by the way,

842
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:05,360
get down to like thinner than your iPhone. Really, so

843
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,199
she could be in the crack of a door and

844
00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:08,159
you won't even see her.

845
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:11,280
Speaker 4: Did you ever get bit or stung? Not by a scorpion.

846
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:14,559
Speaker 5: I did get danky fever, which is transmitted through a mosquito.

847
00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 4: There are two types of danky fever.

848
00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:22,039
Speaker 5: Your regular danky fever and your hemorrhagic danky fever, which

849
00:42:22,079 --> 00:42:25,039
will make you bleed from the inside out. Really, your

850
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,639
liver will hemorrhage.

851
00:42:26,199 --> 00:42:27,039
Speaker 2: And you will die.

852
00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:30,840
Speaker 4: So and is there there's.

853
00:42:30,639 --> 00:42:37,679
Speaker 5: No cure, shot, nothing, no, just deep, just putting deep

854
00:42:37,760 --> 00:42:40,480
on your shoulders and your arms and that's it. That

855
00:42:40,559 --> 00:42:43,079
even doesn't really work because they'll find somewhere to bite you.

856
00:42:43,159 --> 00:42:43,440
Speaker 4: Yeah.

857
00:42:44,079 --> 00:42:47,239
Speaker 5: And then there's a bishop barbieru, a kissing bug I

858
00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:50,960
think you call it here, which has a warm so

859
00:42:51,119 --> 00:42:53,760
it'll bite you on the lip in your sleep and

860
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,400
in that hole. It will shit in the hole and

861
00:42:57,480 --> 00:43:00,599
a worm or a you know, a parasite.

862
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:03,159
Speaker 4: Will go to your heart and it will eat your

863
00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:06,599
heart until you're dead.

864
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:08,280
Speaker 2: It's called shagas.

865
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:10,719
Speaker 4: Wow. You don't want shagas.

866
00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,559
Speaker 2: You're dead? That wow.

867
00:43:12,639 --> 00:43:13,719
Speaker 4: And there's no cure for this.

868
00:43:15,679 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 2: Jeez. That's bad. Yeah, it sounds terrible. And that's all

869
00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:22,920
in Brazil, yeah, or South America in general.

870
00:43:23,039 --> 00:43:25,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, the more inland you go, the worse it is,

871
00:43:25,880 --> 00:43:27,480
like the closer you get to the Amazon.

872
00:43:27,639 --> 00:43:30,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, it gets progressively worse.

873
00:43:31,199 --> 00:43:35,199
Speaker 5: If you're on the coast San Paulo Rio, you know, Santos,

874
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:36,320
it's not as bad.

875
00:43:37,079 --> 00:43:40,039
Speaker 4: But you have you gone back to visit since you.

876
00:43:40,079 --> 00:43:43,199
Speaker 2: Not have not no, I don't particularly have a no.

877
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,039
I could understand. So you go back to Ireland after

878
00:43:47,079 --> 00:43:51,199
you decide. So what was the breaking point for you?

879
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,639
Speaker 5: I had several side gigs when I was there. One

880
00:43:54,679 --> 00:43:59,480
of them was training Elio in you know fib because

881
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,119
they didn't have that training. They had close quarter combat training,

882
00:44:03,159 --> 00:44:06,079
that had long distance trainings, night per training, whatever. They

883
00:44:06,159 --> 00:44:10,039
never had fiboad training, which is fighting a built up area.

884
00:44:10,079 --> 00:44:11,960
Like I said before in the podcast, it's it's a

885
00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:16,400
very difficult terrain and most of Brazil is FIBA and

886
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,039
no one's ever trained them. So I did that as

887
00:44:18,039 --> 00:44:21,360
a side gig. I also had a third side gig,

888
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:24,960
which was to proof read books, and so proof read

889
00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:29,280
books in so someone would want language English, Okay, someone.

890
00:44:29,119 --> 00:44:30,800
Speaker 2: Would send me, like a chapter of a book.

891
00:44:31,119 --> 00:44:33,920
Speaker 5: I would proofread it, make sure it was grammatically good

892
00:44:34,039 --> 00:44:38,079
or correct or whatever, make some addendums. Sometimes, if it's

893
00:44:38,079 --> 00:44:41,280
a technical book, the layman like ourselves, it's very difficult

894
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:44,079
to read. You're like, you read one chapter. Yes, fuck,

895
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,679
I am not reading this anymore. Just I can't understand

896
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:50,960
half of what's been said. So I would improve the flow,

897
00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,159
let's say, improve the kind of like the style.

898
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:56,679
Speaker 4: I want to read more of this. This is intriguing,

899
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:57,679
right yeah.

900
00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 5: So around OVID, around the cold it started in Brazil

901
00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:05,079
in twenty nineteen at the end of twenty nineteen was

902
00:45:05,119 --> 00:45:09,800
kind of kicking off. Everyone was swabbing, using masks, getting

903
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:10,440
the jabs.

904
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 2: It was very, very.

905
00:45:13,239 --> 00:45:17,440
Speaker 5: Very predominant in Brazil in twenty nineteen. Okay, like then

906
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:21,000
it was COVID nineteen, but it was kicking off real really,

907
00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,119
there are people who think they had it in December

908
00:45:23,119 --> 00:45:23,960
of twenty nineteen.

909
00:45:24,039 --> 00:45:26,360
Speaker 3: Here, yes, I'm not surprise because they were going they

910
00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:27,280
were going to the doctor.

911
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:29,039
Speaker 6: Doctor's like, you're testing negative.

912
00:45:28,679 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 3: For flu, but you have flu symptoms. I'm writing a

913
00:45:30,519 --> 00:45:31,199
script for flu.

914
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:32,639
Speaker 4: I think there were several people.

915
00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, in Brazil two thousand, in mid twenty nineteen was

916
00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:39,840
kicking off, so it was probably around before anyone even

917
00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:40,760
knew about it, right.

918
00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:45,079
Speaker 4: Yeah, sure, So it's a bat in a wet market, right.

919
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:49,760
Speaker 3: Kidding back, a penguin and then a penguin and then.

920
00:45:49,639 --> 00:45:52,280
Speaker 6: A car just like the MPOX Yeah yeah, and then

921
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:53,440
gave it to Tony Fauci.

922
00:45:53,679 --> 00:45:57,880
Speaker 3: It said hey, look spread this. Yeah, I'm sorry, just joking.

923
00:45:57,679 --> 00:45:59,199
Speaker 4: And he seed everybody. Yeah.

924
00:46:01,559 --> 00:46:05,320
Speaker 5: So at that time, this person who is now my

925
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:08,559
wife reached out to me to proof read the first

926
00:46:08,599 --> 00:46:15,159
chapter of her book, which is based on thermodynamics in

927
00:46:15,159 --> 00:46:18,079
the human body and how heat and cold affect sickness

928
00:46:18,079 --> 00:46:22,760
and wellness. She is the smartest lady person, let's say,

929
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:24,079
I have ever met.

930
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:27,000
Speaker 2: In my life, Absolutely brilliant.

00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:28,280
Speaker 4: And she's Brazilian.

00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,800
So she was How does she reach out to you

936
00:46:40,880 --> 00:46:41,639

937
00:46:41,679 --> 00:46:43,639

Speaker 2: Dan and I have both worked in radio and we

959
00:47:36,039 --> 00:47:37,639
have heard women's voices.

960
00:47:37,679 --> 00:47:39,639
Speaker 4: Some of them are like they.

961
00:47:39,559 --> 00:47:41,480
Speaker 2: Do not always.

962
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:44,199
Speaker 4: I mean, this is like a shiring, making you crash

963
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:44,599
your ship.

964
00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,719
Speaker 5: I am telling you right now, she needs to be

965
00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:47,400
on the podcast.

966
00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:50,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, like I'm not even so where did you

967
00:47:50,679 --> 00:47:51,719
meet her? How did you meet her?

968
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:52,119
Speaker 4: Person?

969
00:47:52,159 --> 00:47:55,639
Speaker 5: Then, so then we started this so COVID was kicking off.

970
00:47:55,679 --> 00:47:56,920
Speaker 4: I saw her writing on the wall.

971
00:47:57,360 --> 00:48:02,360
Speaker 5: I said, you know what, this school is probably con tank. Yeah,

972
00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,719
I'm like, it's going to tank. People are gonna want

973
00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,599
to do hybrid or online, which they did. So I

974
00:48:07,639 --> 00:48:09,559
saw her writing on the wall. I said, I'm gonna

975
00:48:09,559 --> 00:48:14,039
sell my school. Okay, sold it for a pretty good deal. Yeah,

976
00:48:15,119 --> 00:48:18,280
you know, pulled a shoot, went back to Ireland. But

977
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,480
we had this conversation going for about two years, back

978
00:48:21,480 --> 00:48:25,960
and forth, just like conversation zoom calls, yeah, FaceTime.

979
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,199
Speaker 2: Whatever, you're a Hallmark movie man.

980
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:35,039
Speaker 5: FaceTime, you know everything possible to keep the communication alive, basically,

981
00:48:35,639 --> 00:48:39,320
and well, I told her off the bat, like I said,

982
00:48:39,480 --> 00:48:40,679
you know, I told her off the bat.

983
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:43,599
Speaker 2: How I felt, I didn't. I didn't care how.

984
00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:45,400
Speaker 5: She if it was going to shock her her or not.

985
00:48:45,639 --> 00:48:47,559
But she felt the same, which was good.

986
00:48:50,199 --> 00:48:51,159
Speaker 4: What do you do? Flying?

987
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:52,599
Speaker 2: So then I went to Ireland.

988
00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 4: The minute I land in Ireland, Europe is banned to

989
00:48:55,440 --> 00:48:56,159
come to America.

990
00:48:56,199 --> 00:49:00,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, like nobody in Europe can come, Like, thanks Biden, Yeah,

European variant is stronger.

994
00:49:10,559 --> 00:49:12,039
Speaker 4: They were trying to just contain.

995
00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:17,719
Speaker 5: Really, yeah, I mean anyway, So I stayed there for

996
00:49:17,760 --> 00:49:21,119
about a year and I said to myself, how am

997
00:49:21,159 --> 00:49:23,159
I the hell am I going to get to America?

998
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 4: Well?

999
00:49:24,519 --> 00:49:28,000
Speaker 5: I went from Ireland to England, England to Saint Lucia.

1000
00:49:28,199 --> 00:49:30,199
I had to stay there for fifteen days.

1001
00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:31,880
Speaker 4: In quarantine in one room in Saint Lucia.

1002
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, like one room.

1003
00:49:33,039 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 5: I couldn't even yeah, because they quarantined beautiful too. I

1004
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:38,559
couldn't even see one inch of it. They swabbed me,

1005
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:42,280
said I was COVID positive. I'm like sure, okay, whatever.

1006
00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:46,280
So I had to stay a further fifteen days, So

1007
00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:50,039
thirty days in one room. Then after that thirty days,

1008
00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:54,119
I came into Miami. The guy was like, next, next,

1009
00:49:55,239 --> 00:50:01,519
that's it. It's weird. So at that time, her clinic

1010
00:50:01,599 --> 00:50:05,000
was in Pittsford and I just showed up with two.

1011
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:09,239
Speaker 2: Starbucks in Pittsford here. Yeah, you just showed up. You

1012
00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,880
just you just showed up. You just walked in and

1013
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:12,840
you just said hello.

1014
00:50:13,320 --> 00:50:16,519
Speaker 6: It's like the Polio Dynamite where Lafonda Fondo just shows

1015
00:50:16,599 --> 00:50:17,320
up off the bus.

1016
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:20,840
Speaker 2: It's like, yeah, hey, Lafondo, so you just show up there.

1017
00:50:21,079 --> 00:50:23,960
And and what was the plan.

1018
00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:27,800
Speaker 5: Well, the plan was to you know, see if I

1019
00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:30,159
like it. First of all, for I mean, your visa

1020
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:32,760
in the last six months, right right right. So I said,

1021
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,960
you know, I'll hang out. I don't like, I'll go back,

1022
00:50:36,039 --> 00:50:36,960
Like I said, I'm a gipsy.

1023
00:50:36,960 --> 00:50:37,679
Speaker 2: I'll go anywhere.

1024
00:50:38,800 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 5: So not literally, that's I mean, come on, So I said,

1025
00:50:44,039 --> 00:50:46,000
you know, I'll hang out. If it's cool, I'll stay.

1026
00:50:46,639 --> 00:50:49,239
I don't know how, but I will. Maybe I'll just

1027
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:50,920
come across the southern border or something.

1028
00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,719
Speaker 4: And then so on.

1029
00:50:54,360 --> 00:50:59,280
Speaker 5: Like near the end of my visa, I said to myself,

1030
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:03,119
I cannot leave this woman. I am absolutely head over

1031
00:51:03,159 --> 00:51:05,199
heels in love. I cannot go home.

1032
00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 4: This is my home.

1033
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,519
Speaker 2: Now home was here the herds. Yeah, so in the.

1034
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:11,719
Speaker 5: Barn, because we live on a farm with the goose

1035
00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:17,639
shit everywhere and the chickens as my witnesses. I got

1036
00:51:17,639 --> 00:51:20,360
down and one d and proposed, and she started crying.

1037
00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:23,599
She said yes. And then there was a whole rigmarole

1038
00:51:23,679 --> 00:51:27,760
of homeland security and yeah, trying to attorneys on retainers

1039
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,639
and yeah, but it's fine. I'm a permanent resident now,

1040
00:51:30,639 --> 00:51:33,800
but it took doing it the proper way legally.

1041
00:51:34,039 --> 00:51:36,760
Speaker 4: Well, it's not easy. Is hard, It's very hard.

1042
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:38,719
Speaker 3: I have a oh you didn't get like a gift

1043
00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:39,639
card when you walked in.

1044
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,760
Speaker 2: Now free follow a free hotel. Unfortunately, brother in laws

1045
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:49,320
was army captain west Point grad married a woman from

1046
00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:53,719
the Philippines and she had children that she couldn't get here,

1047
00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:55,639
but it took her forever.

1048
00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,119
Speaker 4: It's very hard.

1049
00:51:57,440 --> 00:52:01,239
Speaker 2: I always say the immigration laws half you have to

1050
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:03,719
have them, of course, but we need to make them so.

1051
00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:05,280
Speaker 4: They're a little more.

1052
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:08,840
Speaker 5: Well if it well, so if it comes to children, yeah,

1053
00:52:08,880 --> 00:52:11,599
I think you know, if if an American has married

1054
00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,679
someone like myself, let's say, and I have kids in Ireland,

1055
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:17,559
I think there should be leeway for those kids to

1056
00:52:17,599 --> 00:52:18,000
come over.

1057
00:52:18,119 --> 00:52:18,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1058
00:52:18,639 --> 00:52:20,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's something I rip it apart the family.

1059
00:52:20,519 --> 00:52:21,239
Speaker 2: That makes it tough.

1060
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:24,320
Speaker 5: But now in Jenny match in May, I can start

1061
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:28,800

1063
00:52:31,199 --> 00:52:32,440
federal jobs for example?

1064
00:52:32,519 --> 00:52:32,960
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1065
00:52:33,199 --> 00:52:35,320
Speaker 2: Could you? Yeah, it's a duel between here in the

1066
00:52:35,599 --> 00:52:38,599
United States. Yeah, Ireland. Yeah, it's dual because my mother,

1067
00:52:38,639 --> 00:52:40,480
I think can get that. Yeah, it's due and I

1068
00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,280
think if she can get it or cats it, I

1069
00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:42,719
could get it.

1070
00:52:42,719 --> 00:52:45,559
Speaker 5: I think if you have graham a graam like a norna, Yeah,

1071
00:52:45,599 --> 00:52:47,559
you can get an Italian passport.

1072
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 4: Oh really, yep, how funny.

1073
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 5: They just have to get in contact with the Italian

1074
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:52,960
embassy and go.

1075
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,159
Speaker 4: Through the press. Well, is there a population dwindling over

1076
00:52:55,159 --> 00:52:55,639
there a little bit?

1077
00:52:55,639 --> 00:52:56,880
Speaker 2: I know, it's just easy to.

1078
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 4: Get all right, Uh, we'll take a moment.

1079
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 2: I want to find out some stuff about the United States,

1080
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:07,119
your thoughts here, our whole process, maybe your view as

1081
00:53:07,159 --> 00:53:09,480
a young person. Well, I would like to say off

1082
00:53:09,480 --> 00:53:10,800
the bat, yeah.

1083
00:53:11,039 --> 00:53:15,639
Speaker 5: Congratulations on your new president because and the reason why

1084
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:18,280
I say that is because the United States is based

1085
00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:23,199
off of a republican constitution, a free market, and you know,

1086
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,760
it's it's a capitalist country. So it's nice to see

1087
00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:30,639
it go back to its roots. I, as an Irishman

1088
00:53:30,679 --> 00:53:34,360
from the Republic of Ireland, also told the English to

1089
00:53:34,360 --> 00:53:35,360
go suck an egg.

1090
00:53:35,360 --> 00:53:36,559
Speaker 3: Back in the day.

1091
00:53:36,639 --> 00:53:38,800
Speaker 4: You know, so we're both on the same team.

1092
00:53:39,199 --> 00:53:39,719
Speaker 3: We're Yanks.

1093
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, that is true.

1094
00:53:43,440 --> 00:53:46,199
Speaker 2: All right, we'll take a moment and a little perspective

1095
00:53:46,360 --> 00:53:48,800
of America on the world state. Sounds good.

1096
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 3: Very Jim Bowers is listening to this.

1097
00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:52,800
Speaker 2: You get to all that right after this, got hurt

1098
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,280
of the job. I don't call Uncle Bob. I mean

1099
00:53:55,360 --> 00:53:58,159
he's got stories fawn off flatters, slipping on ice. But

1100
00:53:58,239 --> 00:54:01,320
trust me, you don't need a supplace. You need Connors

1101
00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,960
and Ferris. At connorson Ferris they focus on workers comp,

1102
00:54:05,199 --> 00:54:08,480
social security, disability, and personal injury. They know the ins

1103
00:54:08,519 --> 00:54:10,519
and outs of workers' comp. Like Uncle Bob knows how

1104
00:54:10,559 --> 00:54:13,840
to fall off a ladder. Their team understands the insurance companies,

1105
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:17,840
employers in the legal system things Uncle Bob really doesn't get.

1106
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:20,800
Let's face it, filing a claim can be stressful, but

1107
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,000
at Connors and Ferris they'll fight for your rights and

1108
00:54:23,039 --> 00:54:26,119
the compensation you deserve so you can actually sleep at night.

1109
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,559
No worry, no more, Uncle Bob advice. Just call two

1110
00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:32,360
six ' to two comp. That's two six to two

1111
00:54:32,679 --> 00:54:37,639
comp Connors and Ferris, your worker's comp attorney. Oh it's

00:55:35,519 --> 00:55:38,199
didn't know I'd been out of country for so long. Yeah,

1127
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:42,679
it is funny, how like some bands don't but I

1128
00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,639
mean even here, like regionally, right, you got a Southside Johnny.

1129
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,960
I love Southside, but he's more of a regional.

1130
00:55:47,599 --> 00:55:51,519
Speaker 6: Ma like in New Jersey, New York, downstate. Yeah, Like

1131
00:55:51,840 --> 00:55:53,440
I saw Southside.

1132
00:55:52,960 --> 00:55:56,320
Speaker 3: Johnny play at not East Endfest? What was Jazz Fest?

1133
00:55:56,559 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 4: Okay?

1134
00:55:56,960 --> 00:55:59,679
Speaker 6: And I was like, okay, but like you know, tragically

1135
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,800
hire my favorite band, Well they don't exist anymore because

1136
00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:03,559
the lead singer died.

1137
00:56:03,599 --> 00:56:06,119
Speaker 3: But they're huge in Canada. But they're also huge in Buffalo,

1138
00:56:06,199 --> 00:56:09,039
Detroit border cities.

1139
00:56:09,039 --> 00:56:11,039
Speaker 6: But like, if you move any further away from that,

1140
00:56:11,079 --> 00:56:13,000
nobody cares Rochester, nobody cares.

1141
00:56:13,920 --> 00:56:15,000
Speaker 4: Nobody cares Buffalo.

1142
00:56:15,000 --> 00:56:17,920

00:56:49,079 --> 00:56:52,159
that no one knows about in this world, about how

1153
00:56:52,159 --> 00:56:55,719
many boots are on the ground on the planet, almost everywhere.

1154
00:56:56,119 --> 00:56:58,480
Speaker 4: Did he ever work with the French Foreign Legion?

1155
00:56:58,599 --> 00:56:59,119
Speaker 2: Yes? I did?

1156
00:56:59,239 --> 00:56:59,599
Speaker 4: You did?

1157
00:57:00,079 --> 00:57:04,000
Speaker 2: What'd you do with them in Africa? Too? Because they're.

1158
00:57:05,599 --> 00:57:09,039
Speaker 5: Well you so they take orders from the French army.

1159
00:57:09,079 --> 00:57:12,960
But to be a French foreign legion soldier. You cannot

1160
00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:18,440
be French ah ah okay, but they do take orders

1161
00:57:18,480 --> 00:57:19,119
from the French.

1162
00:57:20,199 --> 00:57:23,440
Speaker 2: I didn't realize that, yes, and so I did.

1163
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:26,719
Speaker 5: We did, you know, we worked with them quite extensively

1164
00:57:26,760 --> 00:57:30,679
in Africa. They would especially in Eritrea. They built some

1165
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,599
outposts that we took over from.

1166
00:57:33,679 --> 00:57:34,119
Speaker 3: M hmm.

1167
00:57:34,639 --> 00:57:37,320
Speaker 2: Somebody did say, it's funny, I still doesn't like the English.

1168
00:57:37,360 --> 00:57:41,679
Sounds like he's from the South. I still hate it is.

1169
00:57:41,719 --> 00:57:46,039
Speaker 5: I don't know if it's I wouldn't use the word hate, however,

1170
00:57:47,320 --> 00:57:48,480
let's use the word dislike.

1171
00:57:49,039 --> 00:57:53,440
Speaker 2: Well, it's funny because I've told this before many times.

1172
00:57:53,480 --> 00:57:58,280
It's sort of boring. But my parents left Catholicism when

1173
00:57:58,320 --> 00:58:01,000
I was seven and my mom's father.

1174
00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:02,119
Speaker 4: Wouldn't speak to her for a year.

1175
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,559
Speaker 2: Really, yeah, because you went Protestant more or less, and

1176
00:58:05,639 --> 00:58:07,519
that was that was a huge I.

1177
00:58:07,559 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 5: Mean, most people who are born in Ireland are raised Catholic. Yes,

1178
00:58:12,519 --> 00:58:15,599
but at some point, you you know, you kind of

1179
00:58:15,679 --> 00:58:16,639
find your own path.

1180
00:58:16,719 --> 00:58:18,159
Speaker 4: Yeah, distance yourself a little bit.

1181
00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,519
Speaker 3: Did your parents become evangelical or yeah?

1182
00:58:21,559 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, like it was more evangelical church, it was

1183
00:58:24,800 --> 00:58:26,719
the Yeah, it was evangelical.

1184
00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:28,119
Speaker 4: Friend's Evangelical church.

1185
00:58:28,679 --> 00:58:32,679
Speaker 2: I don't practice Catholicism, by the way, No, but brought

1186
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:33,199
up that way.

1187
00:58:33,320 --> 00:58:36,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I found its laws and stepped away.

1188
00:58:36,599 --> 00:58:38,480
Speaker 3: Yea many people my parents did that too.

1189
00:58:39,159 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 2: So you come here, you end up in Pittsford to

1190
00:58:43,039 --> 00:58:45,519
just show up on the doorstep a couple of coffees.

1191
00:58:46,840 --> 00:58:49,760
That is a hallmark movie. Man, you can turn that

1192
00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,360
into an absolute homework. But then, so then what are

1193
00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,880
you gonna do? What if she like, is there any

1194
00:58:56,960 --> 00:59:00,440
plan you're walking in there? You've never really we met

1195
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:02,320
her in person? Right, this is the first time ever

1196
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:03,840
ever in person? No, never in person.

1197
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 4: But you've seen her, yes, and she's seen you, yes,

1198
00:59:07,119 --> 00:59:07,719
And now you're.

1199
00:59:07,599 --> 00:59:10,280
Speaker 5: Gonna I constantly met the joke of I'm five foot five,

1200
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:11,239
so I hope that's okay?

1201
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:18,239
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, And she was shitting herself that was the

1202
00:59:18,239 --> 00:59:19,119
same height as her.

1203
00:59:21,519 --> 00:59:23,039
Speaker 2: How tall are you five eleven?

1204
00:59:23,119 --> 00:59:23,440
Speaker 4: Okay?

1205
00:59:23,519 --> 00:59:26,519
Speaker 3: Yeah? It's supposed to be metric system one.

1206
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:30,920
Speaker 2: So you walk in and.

1207
00:59:32,440 --> 00:59:33,280
Speaker 4: What goes on?

1208
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:33,559
Speaker 3: Where?

1209
00:59:33,599 --> 00:59:36,599
Speaker 4: Where do you end up staying? Where do you straight

1210
00:59:36,639 --> 00:59:37,559
to her home? Straight?

1211
00:59:37,719 --> 00:59:38,599
Speaker 2: Which is in Holly?

1212
00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:39,119
Speaker 4: Oh?

1213
00:59:39,159 --> 00:59:39,480
Speaker 3: We live.

1214
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,280
Speaker 4: We live on a homestead. Wait, I like to call

1215
00:59:42,320 --> 00:59:44,360
it a farm. It's not like a multi million dollar

1216
00:59:44,440 --> 00:59:47,840
hing up by Brockport. Yes, it's Orleans County. Yeah, past Brockport,

1217
00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:50,159
like twelve minutes almost cleardon.

1218
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:51,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so.

1219
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,800
Speaker 5: I met the parents off the bat, you know, love them,

1220
00:59:55,840 --> 01:00:01,360
they love me like a app fantastic dynamic.

1221
01:00:02,119 --> 01:00:05,760
Speaker 4: And how many years were you talking to her?

1222
01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:06,519
Speaker 2: Two years?

1223
01:00:06,719 --> 01:00:10,280
Speaker 4: So you felt like you knew her to that absolutely, Yeah, everything's.

1224
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:13,159
Speaker 2: It's interesting where you kind of have this time where

1225
01:00:13,159 --> 01:00:15,880
no one's interfering in the relationship.

1226
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:18,639
Speaker 4: So it's almost like old fashioned courting where you're like

1227
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,519
just talking to the girl for years before you do anything.

1228
01:00:21,599 --> 01:00:24,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been online chatting

1229
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:25,000
with babes all day.

1230
01:00:25,079 --> 01:00:26,760
Speaker 4: I bet you can throw this ball over the mountain.

1231
01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:30,840
That's ever happened to me.

1232
01:00:36,360 --> 01:00:40,280
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean we live on a homestead. We

1233
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:43,800
have chickens and vegetables and organic.

1234
01:00:44,039 --> 01:00:47,599
Speaker 2: This is exactly what you grow their own eggs, grow

1235
01:00:47,639 --> 01:00:51,159
their own funny. But yeah, they beautiful.

1236
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:53,039
Speaker 4: I mean we love it there. Yeah.

1237
01:00:53,199 --> 01:00:56,440
Speaker 2: So and and this is well, you grew up in

1238
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:57,679
a small town in Ireland.

1239
01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:00,519
Speaker 5: Countryside is nothing new to me. I mean, the whole

1240
01:01:00,559 --> 01:01:04,519
if you're outside of Dublin, everything's countryside. Yeah, like you're

1241
01:01:04,719 --> 01:01:08,480
you're driving up narrow streets with sheep, traffic jams and stuff.

1242
01:01:08,559 --> 01:01:13,519
Speaker 2: Yeah okay. So what I mean when you get here, though,

1243
01:01:13,599 --> 01:01:15,679
is there a little bit of culture shock or not?

1244
01:01:16,519 --> 01:01:19,840
I would assume that movies and things sort of prepare you.

1245
01:01:19,920 --> 01:01:21,119
Speaker 4: I remember being in.

1246
01:01:22,280 --> 01:01:24,559
Speaker 2: It's funny to say that Spain. I was over in

1247
01:01:24,760 --> 01:01:27,599
Coasta del Soul one time when I was young, and

1248
01:01:27,639 --> 01:01:29,719
there's a drunken a bar and this guy comes up

1249
01:01:29,719 --> 01:01:33,000
to me and goes, are the homes as big as

1250
01:01:33,039 --> 01:01:36,079
they are in the movies in America? Would you say

1251
01:01:36,079 --> 01:01:36,639
home Alone?

1252
01:01:36,719 --> 01:01:36,960
Speaker 4: Yes?

1253
01:01:37,079 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 2: That was the one. He said, Holy crap, that was

1254
01:01:39,800 --> 01:01:42,920
the one he brought up Home Alone pre story and

1255
01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:45,039
I and yeah right, yeah.

1256
01:01:45,239 --> 01:01:47,880
Speaker 4: So Ferris Bueller's day off very similar.

1257
01:01:48,119 --> 01:01:50,199
Speaker 5: Because I was born in seventy eight, so I grew

1258
01:01:50,239 --> 01:01:53,039
up with eighties movies. So the idea I had in

1259
01:01:53,039 --> 01:01:56,800
my head of America in general was everybody's on the

1260
01:01:56,840 --> 01:01:59,440
street having fun, playing with the high you know, the

1261
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,920
fire height and crack, the open kids having fun. And

1262
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:05,719
then you come to Rochester and you're like ducking because

1263
01:02:05,719 --> 01:02:07,079
there's like over your.

1264
01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:09,719
Speaker 3: Head right that where you use.

1265
01:02:12,239 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 6: Rochester fighting and built up areas, surviving and built up areas.

1266
01:02:18,079 --> 01:02:20,880
Speaker 2: But when you have no job or anything, when you

1267
01:02:20,920 --> 01:02:22,760
get right, so what do you end up doing?

1268
01:02:23,000 --> 01:02:29,639
Speaker 5: So it's it is quite difficult as a foreigner to

1269
01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:32,480
find a decent, let's say, a decent job. It's easy

1270
01:02:32,519 --> 01:02:35,559
to find any job. Like when someone said, oh there's

1271
01:02:35,559 --> 01:02:39,840
no jobs, that's a lie. It's you know, what are

1272
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:43,719
your standards? Right, So it's like you can work anywhere

1273
01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:48,320
basically depending on your standards. And so I believe that's

1274
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:51,119
why a lot of foreigners do uber and door dash

1275
01:02:51,679 --> 01:02:54,480
is because a lot of foreigners have difficulty getting quote

1276
01:02:54,559 --> 01:03:00,480
unquote decent jobs. Now I want to say I applied

1277
01:03:00,480 --> 01:03:03,800
to over one hundred companies when I arrived here with

1278
01:03:04,000 --> 01:03:05,920
my extensive resume.

1279
01:03:06,039 --> 01:03:07,880
Speaker 2: You can see on LinkedIn. Yeah, I did see it.

1280
01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:08,920
It's it's impressive.

1281
01:03:09,159 --> 01:03:11,639
Speaker 5: And like I have a lot of female certificates, a

1282
01:03:11,679 --> 01:03:15,719
lot of counter terrorism certificates. They can't really be used

1283
01:03:16,239 --> 01:03:18,920
in a date, Like you're not going to use counter

1284
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,000
terrorism in McDonald's right.

1285
01:03:21,679 --> 01:03:23,519
Speaker 6: It depends on where If they do a fire in

1286
01:03:23,519 --> 01:03:26,519
the hole, if your cold fire in the hole, you

1287
01:03:26,559 --> 01:03:28,760
want to you want to fire in the hole, all right.

1288
01:03:28,719 --> 01:03:30,079
Speaker 2: We used to laugh, do you know if fire in

1289
01:03:30,079 --> 01:03:32,559
the hole is? That's where I know what it is?

1290
01:03:32,639 --> 01:03:36,960
Where original this is where someone would screen fire in

1291
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:39,599
the hole. They'd be videotaping and they take their drink

1292
01:03:39,679 --> 01:03:45,159
and throw it back onto the worker in the window.

1293
01:03:46,519 --> 01:03:48,719
And there were a couple of assholes who used to

1294
01:03:48,719 --> 01:03:51,679
be on the radio in the morning that would play

1295
01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,079
these videos and laugh themselves sick.

1296
01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:58,039
Speaker 4: This thing was so funny and it's really horrible, kind

1297
01:03:58,079 --> 01:03:59,159
of referred to the workers.

1298
01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:02,480
Speaker 6: With their who are fucking Yes, then we can a

1299
01:04:02,480 --> 01:04:04,519
couple of emails say, hey, you guys are encouraging people.

1300
01:04:04,320 --> 01:04:07,880
Speaker 2: To do this in Rochester. Yes, yes, sorry weird?

1301
01:04:08,239 --> 01:04:11,599
Speaker 5: Yeah, not my style. But so, like I said, it

1302
01:04:11,679 --> 01:04:15,639
is difficult to find a decent job. So my first

1303
01:04:15,719 --> 01:04:19,079
job was with American Medical Rescue am OR in the

1304
01:04:19,119 --> 01:04:22,000
city of Rochester as an emergency medical technician.

1305
01:04:23,760 --> 01:04:24,360
Speaker 2: That was fun.

1306
01:04:24,760 --> 01:04:26,119
Speaker 4: Yeah, how was that?

1307
01:04:26,159 --> 01:04:31,039
Speaker 2: Because you're talking about all the stuff, is it a

1308
01:04:31,039 --> 01:04:32,119
war zone the way.

1309
01:04:33,519 --> 01:04:35,840
Speaker 4: It sounds, extend a little drama?

1310
01:04:36,159 --> 01:04:40,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I will say that. So my partners, like

1311
01:04:40,440 --> 01:04:42,679
because you would have different partners until you find like

1312
01:04:42,719 --> 01:04:47,559
a solid partner you stay with. Were paramedics and critical

1313
01:04:47,599 --> 01:04:52,039
care paramedics, so Sierra Hicks Paramedics. She also works in

1314
01:04:52,119 --> 01:04:56,800
Gates fantastic paramedic. And then Christopher Gray who is now

1315
01:04:58,079 --> 01:05:02,000
the chief paramedic for parents his critical Care. He used

1316
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:05,400
to work Kilo in the Mercy Flight. He was my

1317
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,840
partner for a long time too, so we would drive

1318
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:12,920
the big box trucks. Is not the transits, and so

1319
01:05:13,000 --> 01:05:18,440
every day now there are thirty trans events on duty

1320
01:05:18,519 --> 01:05:19,280
at any one time.

1321
01:05:19,800 --> 01:05:20,719
Speaker 2: Thirty wow.

1322
01:05:21,679 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 5: So but you always have to have one posted, so

1323
01:05:24,519 --> 01:05:27,639
you'll have twenty nine doing jobs and once one finish,

1324
01:05:27,679 --> 01:05:30,239
the job goes back into service, the next one gets

1325
01:05:30,239 --> 01:05:32,719
called into service for whatever job is it's going on.

1326
01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:35,760
The mayor decided that you have to have one ready

1327
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:42,239
at all times. Anyway, every day, several times a day,

1328
01:05:42,480 --> 01:05:48,320
people will be shot, stabbed, overdosed, ran over, bitten by

1329
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:54,239
a dog, domestically abused, raped, like you're talking the whole list,

1330
01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:58,000
every day, every day, every single day. And we were

1331
01:05:58,119 --> 01:06:02,239
encouraged to wear a bulletproof best that just tells you.

1332
01:06:02,719 --> 01:06:04,039
Speaker 4: You need to provide yourself.

1333
01:06:04,079 --> 01:06:06,880
Speaker 2: You have to buy it yourself. Jesus, it was incouraged.

1334
01:06:07,079 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 5: Nowadays say they were right, I mean they're owned by

1335
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:15,239
GMR KKR own GM or not like multi billionaires, but whatever,

1336
01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:19,360
it's all about the bottom line, right. So we would

1337
01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:22,599
constantly run calls, one after the other after the other,

1338
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,719
and some of them were horrible, Like some of them

1339
01:06:26,760 --> 01:06:30,679
are so bad.

1340
01:06:28,679 --> 01:06:32,440
Speaker 4: You think to yourself, how is this happening in Rochester?

1341
01:06:33,199 --> 01:06:36,840
Why are people shooting each other for nothing? Can't even

1342
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:38,920
go to a barbecue in a park anymore without someone

1343
01:06:38,960 --> 01:06:40,199
shooting you.

1344
01:06:40,199 --> 01:06:42,639
Speaker 5: You can't deliver a pizza. Some dude be picked up.

1345
01:06:42,960 --> 01:06:45,360
He was delivering pizza for Uber Eats. He leaned over

1346
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:47,079
into the passenger to get his you know, like the

1347
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:49,760
hot bag or the cooler bag shot him in the back.

1348
01:06:50,039 --> 01:06:50,800
Speaker 4: For no reason.

1349
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:55,119
Speaker 5: You could say mistaken identity, whatever you could. You could

1350
01:06:55,559 --> 01:06:57,480
brush it off, but at the end of the day,

1351
01:06:57,519 --> 01:07:01,079
it's ridiculous. And then you're talking about, you know, the

1352
01:07:01,159 --> 01:07:04,119
Kia boys who would smash their cars into other cars

1353
01:07:04,159 --> 01:07:08,320
and ultimately hurt themselves and our arted people.

1354
01:07:08,119 --> 01:07:10,079
Speaker 2: Right for what TikTok?

1355
01:07:10,280 --> 01:07:15,519
Speaker 4: Come on, that's stupid and the irresponsible and nobody cares

1356
01:07:15,840 --> 01:07:18,760
like stop. You know, I'm.

1357
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 2: Curious as to the one thing I always find it.

1358
01:07:23,599 --> 01:07:26,480
I think it's the personality type I would like to

1359
01:07:26,519 --> 01:07:30,480
say it's foreigners, but the personality type, the balls it

1360
01:07:30,559 --> 01:07:34,719
takes to leave your country where your family is and

1361
01:07:34,719 --> 01:07:37,679
where your comfort is and where your home is, and

1362
01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:41,920
to go and you did it twice, like you went

1363
01:07:41,960 --> 01:07:44,320
to the other side of the world, really right down

1364
01:07:44,519 --> 01:07:45,079
to Brazil.

1365
01:07:45,480 --> 01:07:48,840
Speaker 4: I mean I don't it's pretty far what Africa Brazil? Yeah, yeah,

1366
01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:49,760
a lot of parts.

1367
01:07:49,639 --> 01:07:53,599
Speaker 2: Well in Africa was but before the right with a

1368
01:07:53,639 --> 01:07:56,840
time stamp, this will end at whatever right Brazil didn't

1369
01:07:56,840 --> 01:07:59,360
have that that was your own right and and then

1370
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:02,280
to come here. And I always think that that the

1371
01:08:02,559 --> 01:08:06,760
confidence it takes to do that, the self assuredness, and

1372
01:08:07,199 --> 01:08:10,039
the difficulties it is in terms of I would think

1373
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:14,559
probably harder in my just brief moments of knowing you

1374
01:08:14,599 --> 01:08:18,560
would be Brazil only in that there are no than

1375
01:08:18,560 --> 01:08:20,159
the United States. And I'm only saying that one for

1376
01:08:20,199 --> 01:08:23,199
the language barrier until you get it and then all

1377
01:08:23,239 --> 01:08:25,760
that other shit that could possibly happen, a shitting and

1378
01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:27,600
you know, digging a hole and shitting in your thing

1379
01:08:27,640 --> 01:08:29,680
and then get into your heart.

1380
01:08:29,720 --> 01:08:30,199
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

1381
01:08:30,319 --> 01:08:33,560
Speaker 5: I just I mean, like, yes, the language barrier is

1382
01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,159
only a barrier for whatever length of time it takes

1383
01:08:36,159 --> 01:08:38,399
you to learn that language, and it's not a barrier anymore,

1384
01:08:38,399 --> 01:08:39,359
and then you're free.

1385
01:08:40,239 --> 01:08:40,560
Speaker 4: Here.

1386
01:08:41,199 --> 01:08:44,319
Speaker 5: The barrier is a lot of Like I said before,

1387
01:08:44,359 --> 01:08:48,439
decent jobs require you to be a US citizen, at

1388
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,560
least the jobs I want to do. Let's say now

1389
01:08:51,600 --> 01:08:56,760
I am going through currently uh state background check for

1390
01:08:56,800 --> 01:08:57,399
a state job.

1391
01:08:57,840 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 2: Just leave it at that.

1392
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:02,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so that takes eight weeks in itself. I've

1393
01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,319
already had two interviews, I've done one test, and now

1394
01:09:05,439 --> 01:09:08,239
waiting for the background check, which takes eight plus weeks,

1395
01:09:08,279 --> 01:09:12,359
is what I was told. Now, when onboarding starts, probably January,

1396
01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:15,079
I mean, it's it's.

1397
01:09:15,359 --> 01:09:18,039
Speaker 4: But that'll be much better safer.

1398
01:09:18,119 --> 01:09:21,039
Speaker 5: It's in a civilian position with the state.

1399
01:09:21,159 --> 01:09:21,840
Speaker 2: We'll say that.

1400
01:09:22,319 --> 01:09:25,520
Speaker 5: And so to go back to your previous comment about Rochester,

1401
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:29,880
and especially as a first responder, if you remember a

1402
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:34,039
while back the firemen who were shot at the door,

1403
01:09:34,479 --> 01:09:36,600
someone called nine one one and shot them through the door.

1404
01:09:37,079 --> 01:09:40,640
I mean, the protocol for anybody in the first responder

1405
01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:44,239
now is to knock the door to the side and

1406
01:09:44,840 --> 01:09:48,199
verbally announce yourself as loud as possible. You know what

1407
01:09:48,520 --> 01:09:52,119
you don't say ems because not everybody knows what EMS is,

1408
01:09:52,840 --> 01:09:55,960
so we were told to say ambulance. Everyone knows what

1409
01:09:56,039 --> 01:09:59,159
an ambulance is. Or you can't say EMT paramedic because

1410
01:09:59,399 --> 01:10:02,399
unfortunately people don't know what that is.

1411
01:10:02,600 --> 01:10:06,760
Speaker 2: So you grew up in Ireland where there isn't this.

1412
01:10:07,199 --> 01:10:09,399
I don't know if we can even call a gun culture.

1413
01:10:09,439 --> 01:10:13,359
But they're not as violent. Yeah correct? Did you know

1414
01:10:13,399 --> 01:10:14,880
many people who even own them?

1415
01:10:15,239 --> 01:10:15,479
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1416
01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:17,279
Speaker 2: We we all have guns in Ireland.

1417
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:21,520
Speaker 5: We hunt, we shoot in sports clay pigeons, but there

1418
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:23,920
wasn't I think you call it here and then we

1419
01:10:23,960 --> 01:10:28,239
would have like a three h eight with a silencer,

1420
01:10:28,279 --> 01:10:30,199
but we were shooting a target out of you know,

1421
01:10:30,319 --> 01:10:32,039
six seven hundred yards just for fun.

1422
01:10:32,119 --> 01:10:34,239
Speaker 2: But but no, but none of this stuff.

1423
01:10:34,479 --> 01:10:35,359
Speaker 4: So I'm here.

1424
01:10:35,399 --> 01:10:39,000
Speaker 5: If someone is shot in Ireland, anywhere in Ireland, it's

1425
01:10:39,199 --> 01:10:45,520
national news for months, like there's outrage. Usually the people

1426
01:10:45,520 --> 01:10:48,760
who are shooting one another are like Russian and Polish

1427
01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:53,880
gangs or some type of gang activity ira something like that.

1428
01:10:54,640 --> 01:11:00,000
You don't find a gang member randomly shooting a civilian

1429
01:11:00,560 --> 01:11:03,199
for no reason other than I need this on TikTok

1430
01:11:03,279 --> 01:11:05,239
or a getting initiation.

1431
01:11:04,800 --> 01:11:06,800
Speaker 4: Or sort of robbery.

1432
01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:08,920
Speaker 2: There are robbery no, but I mean with a gun

1433
01:11:09,640 --> 01:11:12,880
very rare, very very rare, Like if you if you

1434
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:17,199
hear about it, it's national news. So what was your

1435
01:11:17,239 --> 01:11:20,119
first reaction to this when you get here and you decided? So,

1436
01:11:20,159 --> 01:11:21,760
my first ever call.

1437
01:11:23,079 --> 01:11:26,079
Speaker 5: In the city of Rochester as a first responder while

1438
01:11:26,079 --> 01:11:29,079
I was going through through clearing, you know, training period,

1439
01:11:30,079 --> 01:11:34,239
we went to this guy's house. Well, come, So we

1440
01:11:34,319 --> 01:11:36,199
have a system that's called bricks and it gives you

1441
01:11:36,239 --> 01:11:39,039
the whole low down on what the nine one one

1442
01:11:39,079 --> 01:11:43,159
center received. Now that could be very accurate in information,

1443
01:11:43,279 --> 01:11:46,119
or it could be absolutely so vague that you have

1444
01:11:46,199 --> 01:11:51,800
no idea what you go into. So it was hyper emesis,

1445
01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:56,840
which is, you know, excessive vomiting, hyper emesis with blood

1446
01:11:57,279 --> 01:11:57,920
something like that.

1447
01:11:58,000 --> 01:11:59,520
Speaker 2: Some vague and that was it.

1448
01:11:59,760 --> 01:12:02,399
Speaker 5: We were like, Okay, maybe he's just, like you know,

1449
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,319
ingested something that he shouldn't have ingested or who knows what.

1450
01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:08,079
Let's go have a look. So it's in an apartment.

1451
01:12:08,119 --> 01:12:10,600
We're bagging on the apartment. He opens the door and

1452
01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:14,319
when I say to you, I have never ever in

1453
01:12:14,359 --> 01:12:17,359
my life seen so much blood in the room.

1454
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:24,159
Speaker 4: I am not kidding. And you were this room right here.

1455
01:12:23,159 --> 01:12:28,279
Speaker 5: Like the walls, the ground, his bed soaked everything. I'm like,

1456
01:12:28,520 --> 01:12:32,279
this is a horror movie. And what happened was he

1457
01:12:32,359 --> 01:12:34,279
I won't name the hospital, but he had a surgery

1458
01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:39,520
in his in his thorax, and they stationed up and

1459
01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:43,039
while he was asleep, it opened and he started to

1460
01:12:43,119 --> 01:12:46,119
breathe in he started to assiciate on his own blood,

1461
01:12:46,439 --> 01:12:48,920
which woke him up and he started vomiting.

1462
01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:51,600
Speaker 4: They sent him home. He was home, right, Jess.

1463
01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:55,079
Speaker 5: Operations done, go home. Like I said, I won't say

1464
01:12:55,079 --> 01:12:59,079
the hospital. Not very fond of them, but whatever. And

1465
01:12:59,119 --> 01:13:01,680
so we got there and we were in a group

1466
01:13:01,720 --> 01:13:03,920
of three because I was the newbie, I was, you know,

1467
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:08,640
training well one of my partners over here trying to

1468
01:13:08,640 --> 01:13:12,680
get information out of imagine the Exorcist, which with with

1469
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:16,800
blood it was just a projectile and he had to

1470
01:13:16,840 --> 01:13:20,000
go for hepatitis tests and all that. Jazz sure, And

1471
01:13:20,039 --> 01:13:22,319
that was my introduction to first responders in the city

1472
01:13:22,319 --> 01:13:28,439
of Rochester. My second one was probably worse. So I

1473
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:32,840
went to a house and their unk was in the basement,

1474
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:35,079
probably big enough for about five people.

1475
01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:36,920
Speaker 4: Twenty five people.

1476
01:13:36,640 --> 01:13:41,159
Speaker 5: Were down there at least doing what So he had

1477
01:13:41,279 --> 01:13:43,520
like a little gem down there. He still had his

1478
01:13:43,520 --> 01:13:46,079
gloves on, and he was on his back. He was supine,

1479
01:13:46,199 --> 01:13:50,119
which is the name of like lying horizonally on your back.

1480
01:13:51,479 --> 01:13:52,439
Speaker 4: Ground boxing ring.

1481
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:56,119
Speaker 2: They were so irate, so they were.

1482
01:13:55,960 --> 01:13:58,279
Speaker 4: Saying to us, if you don't get my own back,

1483
01:13:58,319 --> 01:14:00,920
we're gonna fucking kill you.

1484
01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:03,119
Speaker 5: Like and they meant it. They really meant they were

1485
01:14:03,159 --> 01:14:06,239
going to kill us if we didn't get him back. So,

1486
01:14:07,159 --> 01:14:09,039
you know, we put the pads on, We give him

1487
01:14:09,079 --> 01:14:11,000

1489
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:17,319

1490
01:14:18,000 --> 01:14:21,640
thankfully got rosc which is his heart beat back. Well,

1491
01:14:21,720 --> 01:14:24,279
once they saw the roster, like oh he's back, and

1492
01:14:24,319 --> 01:14:28,960
in our heads we're like, how back's back.

1493
01:14:29,199 --> 01:14:30,640
Speaker 4: He might be on event for the rest.

1494
01:14:30,439 --> 01:14:33,319
Speaker 2: Of his life, or like yeah, okay, let's get him go.

1495
01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:38,359
Speaker 5: We got out, We got un back here, we're gonna

1496
01:14:38,399 --> 01:14:40,680
take for precauco. Then we loaded him up on the

1497
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:43,560
Mega mover. We got him out of there. Because he

1498
01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:45,159
was a very small kind of guy. The two of

1499
01:14:45,239 --> 01:14:47,199
us were fine. We didn't need, you know, fire to

1500
01:14:47,239 --> 01:14:49,119
help us. We got him out of there and got

1501
01:14:49,159 --> 01:14:51,119
him on the stretcher and went lights and sirens to

1502
01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:55,079
the hospital. Yeah, with an unwitnessed cardiac event. And the

1503
01:14:55,199 --> 01:14:57,399
last time someone saw him well was an hour ago.

1504
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:01,479
Speaker 4: So you did you He was a gym down there. Yeah,

1505
01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:03,640
he had like a little home gym. Yeah, so he

1506
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:04,279
was working out.

1507
01:15:04,359 --> 01:15:07,640
Speaker 5: Well, he had a cardiac event, walk, cardiac event. I

1508
01:15:07,680 --> 01:15:10,520
don't know, maybe a stroke, who knows. Yeah, I am

1509
01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:13,159
not superman. I do not have an em right in

1510
01:15:13,159 --> 01:15:15,760
my head. Who knows?

1511
01:15:16,600 --> 01:15:19,079
Speaker 2: So what what you know when you look at the

1512
01:15:19,119 --> 01:15:23,640
world and then I don't know what the impression of

1513
01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:30,520
America is on a young shortia growing up and like,

1514
01:15:30,600 --> 01:15:34,079
you know, what are you cognizant of anything like five

1515
01:15:34,159 --> 01:15:34,600
years old?

1516
01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:35,960
Speaker 4: So what what year is that?

1517
01:15:36,079 --> 01:15:39,439
Speaker 2: Like nineteen, like the eighties movies and stuff like that. Yea, yeah,

1518
01:15:39,439 --> 01:15:41,920
I mean the thriller album comes out and you know

1519
01:15:42,000 --> 01:15:43,800
that kind of mbo rambo.

1520
01:15:44,039 --> 01:15:48,119
Speaker 4: Sure, yeah, I just want to pass through leave me alone, right.

1521
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:49,520
Speaker 2: All you wanted to do.

1522
01:15:49,520 --> 01:15:53,600
Speaker 4: Was pass through the village, living the chaos in the suit.

1523
01:15:54,720 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 2: And then compare that to kind of what your image

1524
01:15:58,560 --> 01:16:01,880
in your head was to what the actuality is completely different.

1525
01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, don't get me wrong. I love it here. Yeah,

1526
01:16:05,119 --> 01:16:06,359
absolutely love it here.

1527
01:16:06,399 --> 01:16:07,520
Speaker 2: This is my home. Now.

1528
01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:10,760
Speaker 5: That's why I'm going for my citizenship next year. I mean,

1529
01:16:11,159 --> 01:16:13,960
let's face it, half of Ireland or Irish anyway, Yeah,

1530
01:16:13,960 --> 01:16:15,479
I mean we all came over on the boats and

1531
01:16:15,520 --> 01:16:16,359
start building shit.

1532
01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:16,720
Speaker 3: Yeah.

1533
01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:21,000
Speaker 5: I mean it's not like either Italian, German or Irish.

1534
01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:22,920
Speaker 2: Right, I mean it's that's it. I mean.

1535
01:16:24,000 --> 01:16:27,279
Speaker 5: So I love it here, I really really do. Now

1536
01:16:27,399 --> 01:16:29,399
do I love Rochester in some ways?

1537
01:16:29,479 --> 01:16:32,800
Speaker 2: Yes? I do. I love the people. Yeah, I would

1538
01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:34,600
say that the people.

1539
01:16:34,319 --> 01:16:37,520
Speaker 5: The people that I encounter day to day are fantastic

1540
01:16:37,600 --> 01:16:39,800
for the most part, and let's say ninety something percent,

1541
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:42,079
who knows what figure you could put on it. But

1542
01:16:42,159 --> 01:16:45,239
for the most part, I would say that the people

1543
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,560
are won't make Rochester Rochester.

1544
01:16:49,000 --> 01:16:49,239
Speaker 2: You know.

1545
01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:51,840
Speaker 5: I enjoy their company, I enjoy talking to them, I

1546
01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:53,239
enjoy hearing their stories.

1547
01:16:53,479 --> 01:16:54,399
Speaker 4: It's so diverse.

1548
01:16:57,079 --> 01:17:00,920
Speaker 5: But the United States as a whole, every state I've

1549
01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:03,439
been to feels like a different country. Like if I

1550
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,960
go to South or North Carolina, it doesn't it feels

1551
01:17:06,000 --> 01:17:08,560
like a completely different country. If I go to Florida,

1552
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:12,399
I'm like, this is like South America. It feels completely different.

1553
01:17:12,399 --> 01:17:15,520
It doesn't feel like the same country, if that makes sense.

1554
01:17:15,399 --> 01:17:15,960
Speaker 4: No, it does.

1555
01:17:16,079 --> 01:17:18,119
Speaker 2: I had European neighbors and they would always say to

1556
01:17:18,159 --> 01:17:22,399
me because they spoke They were from Finland and Switzerland,

1557
01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:25,600
and they I would ask how many languages? I always

1558
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:28,359
think probably one of the greatest things you could do

1559
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,960
for your brain is to learn another language. I just help.

1560
01:17:31,159 --> 01:17:36,119
I think it helps you think differently, right, And she

1561
01:17:36,199 --> 01:17:38,319
would you said to me, you know, Americans don't have

1562
01:17:38,399 --> 01:17:41,520
to because in Europe, if I want to go to

1563
01:17:41,560 --> 01:17:44,359
a desert, I need to speak their language because they

1564
01:17:44,359 --> 01:17:48,520
don't speak the same language. And so there is that.

1565
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:51,359
But you're right, it is very different. They're very sure.

1566
01:17:51,399 --> 01:17:55,159
Speaker 5: You can go to Arizona and experience a deserta whatever, right,

1567
01:17:55,199 --> 01:17:57,319
and speak the language is the point, right, and use

1568
01:17:57,319 --> 01:18:00,479
the same currency. It still feels like a different country.

1569
01:18:00,720 --> 01:18:02,960
Speaker 4: I can understand what you're saying. For a while.

1570
01:18:03,079 --> 01:18:05,800
Speaker 2: My son who now lives with me, he's fourteen, was

1571
01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:09,439
in the Huntsville, Alabama area, and I would go down

1572
01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:13,319
there and it was very different, you know, just just different.

1573
01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:17,479
Speaker 4: In terms of different things. You just you learned different customs.

1574
01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:19,680
Speaker 6: I've heard stories where like now from people from Alabama

1575
01:18:19,720 --> 01:18:21,600
who from here moved to Alabama.

1576
01:18:21,760 --> 01:18:23,960
Speaker 3: People from here moved to New York or Texas. Right,

1577
01:18:24,079 --> 01:18:26,319
so where are you from New York? Yeah?

1578
01:18:26,359 --> 01:18:28,439
Speaker 6: And they take like two giant steps back, like you

1579
01:18:28,560 --> 01:18:31,079
got some type of disease or like they're shocked, or

1580
01:18:31,119 --> 01:18:32,239
you're gonna like, you know, throw something.

1581
01:18:32,359 --> 01:18:34,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, what do you do here? Yeah? What's the problem?

1582
01:18:34,359 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 2: Right? What are you running from? Yeah? Right? Yeah?

1583
01:18:37,039 --> 01:18:37,359
Speaker 4: Right?

1584
01:18:38,159 --> 01:18:39,119
Speaker 3: You running from?

1585
01:18:39,319 --> 01:18:40,279
Speaker 4: Who you're running from?

1586
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:41,800
Speaker 2: I'm with you?

1587
01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:43,479
Speaker 3: No, sure?

1588
01:18:43,479 --> 01:18:44,399
Speaker 2: So what a life?

1589
01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:44,720
Speaker 3: Man?

1590
01:18:45,600 --> 01:18:49,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's got to be some, i mean fun stuff

1591
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:50,800
along the way here.

1592
01:18:50,760 --> 01:18:51,520
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely.

1593
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:53,960
Speaker 5: I mean I can tell you some stories about you know,

1594
01:18:54,239 --> 01:18:54,760
anything you.

1595
01:18:54,720 --> 01:18:55,960
Speaker 2: Want, Africa for example.

1596
01:18:56,119 --> 01:18:59,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, some serious ones, some funny ones if you want.

1597
01:19:00,079 --> 01:19:01,000
Speaker 2: I remember.

1598
01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:06,199
Speaker 5: At some point, I don't remember exactly when, but we

1599
01:19:06,199 --> 01:19:13,319
were on patrol and I was on standby, and we

1600
01:19:13,399 --> 01:19:16,159
had her nods or night vision you know, goggless, but

1601
01:19:16,239 --> 01:19:19,720
we have them up in the antler position. So because

1602
01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:23,119
you want your eyes to you know, you know, be

1603
01:19:23,159 --> 01:19:26,479
accustomed to night rather than have to constantly use your

1604
01:19:26,600 --> 01:19:29,119
night vision, because that will give you night blindness because

1605
01:19:29,159 --> 01:19:31,600
the minute you have to take them up, you can't shaving, right,

1606
01:19:32,319 --> 01:19:35,279
or you can use one monocular so that you constantly

1607
01:19:35,319 --> 01:19:36,920
have like a good eye, and if a car is

1608
01:19:36,920 --> 01:19:39,000
passing by, you cover your good eye or your I

1609
01:19:39,039 --> 01:19:42,079
should say your eye that's not being using the monocular

1610
01:19:42,199 --> 01:19:45,119
night vision, so that when he goes by, you still

1611
01:19:45,159 --> 01:19:50,720
have that like dilated pupil. So we had the the

1612
01:19:50,760 --> 01:19:55,640
antlers up, and I remember I was, you know, just

1613
01:19:55,640 --> 01:19:57,920
standing there and I was just looking around and you could.

1614
01:19:57,840 --> 01:19:59,359
Speaker 2: Just start like I mean to start.

1615
01:19:59,479 --> 01:20:01,520
Speaker 5: You look up this guy, You're like, holy crap, you

1616
01:20:01,520 --> 01:20:04,079
could see the whole universe. You know, It's like wow,

1617
01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:05,960
because there's no lights around here in the middle of

1618
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:06,840
the desert.

1619
01:20:07,039 --> 01:20:07,399
Speaker 2: And so.

1620
01:20:08,960 --> 01:20:13,119
Speaker 5: I remember I heard this weird laughing, like this bizarre

1621
01:20:14,199 --> 01:20:18,439
almost demonic laughing in the distance. So I get on

1622
01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,680
the coms. I talked to my buddy. I'm like, can

1623
01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:24,600
you hear that. It's like I hear something. I don't

1624
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,279
know what it is, though, I'm like, it's very strange.

1625
01:20:27,319 --> 01:20:27,640
Speaker 4: Hang on.

1626
01:20:28,079 --> 01:20:30,000
Speaker 5: So I took my antlers down and put them on,

1627
01:20:30,199 --> 01:20:33,119
and in front of me, maybe one hundred and fifty

1628
01:20:33,159 --> 01:20:36,640
yards away, they were a pack of hyaenas walking towards me.

1629
01:20:37,000 --> 01:20:38,319
Speaker 4: And they really laughed like that.

1630
01:20:38,359 --> 01:20:41,960
Speaker 5: Oh, it's very bizarre and it's spooky as shit at nighttime.

1631
01:20:42,199 --> 01:20:44,960
Speaker 4: I know I've seen hyenas in a zoo, I've never

1632
01:20:45,039 --> 01:20:45,479
heard them.

1633
01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:49,760
Speaker 5: Oh, it's so squeaky nighttime. The wild ones are so spooky.

1634
01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:52,159
It's like a fox at nighttime when it sounds.

1635
01:20:51,880 --> 01:20:52,760
Speaker 2: Like a woman's screaming.

1636
01:20:52,800 --> 01:20:56,000
Speaker 5: Yes, but it's not that that's freaking itself.

1637
01:20:56,119 --> 01:20:56,600
Speaker 4: Yes it is.

1638
01:20:56,640 --> 01:20:59,600
Speaker 5: The hyenas have this laugh that's also just as spooky

1639
01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:00,199
and freak.

1640
01:21:00,960 --> 01:21:02,960
Speaker 4: And as Roger Rabbit.

1641
01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:06,319
Speaker 3: Okay, you're gonna die laughing.

1642
01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:12,600
Speaker 5: Well, it's funny you should say that.

1643
01:21:11,479 --> 01:21:11,680
Speaker 3: See.

1644
01:21:12,880 --> 01:21:15,199
Speaker 5: So they start coming towards us, and I'm like, listen,

1645
01:21:15,199 --> 01:21:17,319
I can't get let these guys get any closer because

1646
01:21:17,319 --> 01:21:19,640
I don't know what's going to happen, because at some

1647
01:21:19,680 --> 01:21:21,800
point they're going to come up into the you know,

1648
01:21:22,520 --> 01:21:24,439
we'll call it a camp. It's not really a camp.

1649
01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:30,600
It's like a makeshift camp forward operating position. And they're

1650
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:33,319
coming further and further, I should say, closer and closer,

1651
01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:36,000
and so I put on my can, which.

1652
01:21:35,760 --> 01:21:39,720
Speaker 4: Is a nickname for a silencer. So I'm putting on

1653
01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:40,199
the can.

1654
01:21:40,359 --> 01:21:42,520
Speaker 5: I'm like, I'm gonna pick one off just to let them,

1655
01:21:42,520 --> 01:21:45,000
you know, spook them. So I bring it up in

1656
01:21:45,039 --> 01:21:48,840
the position. I hit one dead center between the eyes

1657
01:21:48,840 --> 01:21:49,920
and they all scattered.

1658
01:21:50,920 --> 01:21:53,079
Speaker 2: But man, was that's that was spooky?

1659
01:21:54,760 --> 01:21:56,640
Speaker 4: How many you're in a pack when they're traveling.

1660
01:21:57,640 --> 01:21:59,880
Speaker 5: I want to say there was about eight, maybe not

1661
01:22:00,279 --> 01:22:02,640
walking towards me because they're scavengers.

1662
01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:05,960
Speaker 2: Well, they're scavengers, and I always got the impression only

1663
01:22:06,000 --> 01:22:08,039
from probably Disney movies.

1664
01:22:08,119 --> 01:22:11,079
Speaker 5: Oh no, they're scavenger, right, No, no, but to right,

1665
01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:12,920
I watched The Lion King.

1666
01:22:14,239 --> 01:22:18,479
Speaker 2: But that they're scavengers and that they're scared basically scared off, right.

1667
01:22:18,760 --> 01:22:22,279
But but but they're wild animals. Yeah, so I'm going

1668
01:22:22,560 --> 01:22:23,279
and sing.

1669
01:22:23,439 --> 01:22:26,760
Speaker 5: Happened with the boons too, and they have babies, Yeah,

1670
01:22:27,520 --> 01:22:31,720
they have they have teeth like massive incisors, like they

1671
01:22:31,720 --> 01:22:34,960
have big teeth that if they bite you, you're probably done,

1672
01:22:35,319 --> 01:22:37,840
you know. And so the same thing was happening. They

1673
01:22:37,880 --> 01:22:40,680
would run and run back and run closer you run back,

1674
01:22:40,680 --> 01:22:42,880
and then I had to like just take one out

1675
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:43,840
and then they just scattered.

1676
01:22:44,039 --> 01:22:47,159
Speaker 3: There's a video on YouTube the Red Ass.

1677
01:22:47,319 --> 01:22:53,600
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, you took a video. So Bill's kids are

1678
01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:55,399
little at this point, they go to the Seneca Park too,

1679
01:22:55,439 --> 01:22:57,760
and Bill and just this is before like you could

1680
01:22:57,760 --> 01:22:59,359
tape anything in your cell phone. It had one of

1681
01:22:59,359 --> 01:23:02,079
those special cameras, right and called your palm. It's like

1682
01:23:02,159 --> 01:23:02,920
twenty ten.

1683
01:23:02,960 --> 01:23:03,960
Speaker 3: This is innovative, right.

1684
01:23:04,119 --> 01:23:06,760
Speaker 6: So he's at the zoo's tape and Jackson, his son

1685
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:08,279
who has autism, goes.

1686
01:23:08,520 --> 01:23:10,720
Speaker 3: You know the most fascinating thing about a babboon is

1687
01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:15,960
but just straight tray face. He's not trying to be funny,

1688
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,399
he is. It's so fascinating his right, but his pla,

1689
01:23:21,119 --> 01:23:22,439
his pro lap status.

1690
01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:25,000
Speaker 2: God, I have heard stories.

1691
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:25,760
Speaker 4: Of pro laps datus.

1692
01:23:25,960 --> 01:23:28,199
Speaker 2: I don't want to know about it, No, not for me.

1693
01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:32,960
Had surgery and then yeah.

1694
01:23:32,840 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 3: That's why he was a preparation h sota.

1695
01:23:34,680 --> 01:23:36,920
Speaker 2: And it pops out again and what a mess that

1696
01:23:37,039 --> 01:23:39,000
I go? Holy God? Who I didn't even know that

1697
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:42,680
can happen? I had no idea. Oh thanks, yeah, I'm

1698
01:23:42,720 --> 01:23:43,159
all set.

1699
01:23:43,279 --> 01:23:44,920
Speaker 3: So let me ask you real quick, what what?

1700
01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:45,000
Speaker 2: What?

1701
01:23:45,079 --> 01:23:49,319
Speaker 6: Don't Americans appreciate being an outsider coming here like I

1702
01:23:49,319 --> 01:23:50,640
almost the outside, but you know, I didn't know you

1703
01:23:50,680 --> 01:23:54,079
would tell me. Honestly, I mean I I don't think

1704
01:23:54,119 --> 01:23:56,760
we appreciate what we have because we're so like, think

1705
01:23:56,800 --> 01:23:58,840
about this, you had to learn like multiple languages, living

1706
01:23:58,880 --> 01:24:01,319
in Europe, a lot of freedom loan. That's the thing we

1707
01:24:01,399 --> 01:24:03,359
have everything. America is the center of the world. And

1708
01:24:03,399 --> 01:24:05,359
I'm not saying that to be arrogant. It seems like

1709
01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:09,039
everything everybody wants to come here, like we you And

1710
01:24:09,119 --> 01:24:11,880
I had a professor of Fisher, doctor Muskowsky, America owns

1711
01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:14,600
the world that everybody rents, right, guys. Yeah, And everybody

1712
01:24:14,640 --> 01:24:16,880
started laughing. But he wasn't like trying to make a joke.

1713
01:24:17,359 --> 01:24:19,119
He was trying to say, you guys got it pretty

1714
01:24:19,159 --> 01:24:21,840
good here. Like he was from Poland and like he's

1715
01:24:21,880 --> 01:24:24,119
like the world's foremost expert of Polish history, and he

1716
01:24:24,159 --> 01:24:26,119
was like, do you understand, Like how good you have

1717
01:24:26,239 --> 01:24:28,479
it here? And he was a history professor at Saint

1718
01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:31,079
John Fisher University, And he's like, you guys take it

1719
01:24:31,079 --> 01:24:33,760
for granted, like college is just a given to you people.

1720
01:24:33,800 --> 01:24:36,439
Do you understand, Like, Wow, good you have it here?

1721
01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:38,920
And I think this last election, I think a lot

1722
01:24:38,960 --> 01:24:41,560
of people who are who seem to be disappointed by

1723
01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:44,439
the results are the ones in this case who don't

1724
01:24:44,560 --> 01:24:46,640
get what we really have.

1725
01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:48,840
Speaker 4: The only country in the world where people hate it

1726
01:24:48,880 --> 01:24:51,119
and still stay Yeah.

1727
01:24:50,560 --> 01:24:52,279
Speaker 3: Thank you. Nobody's leaving.

1728
01:24:52,319 --> 01:24:53,840
Speaker 6: None of those people who said they're gonna leave are

1729
01:24:53,840 --> 01:24:57,039
gonna leave, like Eddie Vedder and Bruce Bringsteen and Barberstreis

1730
01:24:57,159 --> 01:24:58,439
and aren't leaving America.

1731
01:24:58,520 --> 01:24:59,720
Speaker 2: Did they say they were going.

1732
01:25:00,119 --> 01:25:03,720
Speaker 6: There's like a whole list Oprah, Tom Hanks, weren't going

1733
01:25:04,279 --> 01:25:05,239
the leave me.

1734
01:25:05,399 --> 01:25:06,039
Speaker 3: That's what they said.

1735
01:25:06,159 --> 01:25:07,359
Speaker 4: I don't know if they said that.

1736
01:25:07,720 --> 01:25:10,399
Speaker 6: Eddie Vedder has like Bill Maher ed Bill Maher like

1737
01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:12,600
three months ago a new rules said he look, if

1738
01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:13,640
you're gonna say you're gonna.

1739
01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:14,760
Speaker 4: Leave them leave, you have to leave.

1740
01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 3: He goes, I love it, he goes. He goes.

1741
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:18,319
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't like the idea of Trump, he said,

1742
01:25:18,319 --> 01:25:19,520
But he goes, I'm not leaving.

1743
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:21,600
Speaker 3: No to America, no.

1744
01:25:21,920 --> 01:25:24,960
Speaker 5: Far and foreign. There's can't even buy property in Canada

1745
01:25:25,079 --> 01:25:27,560
right now. There's a new law in place. So even

1746
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,159
if you're trying to go across the board of Canada

1747
01:25:29,199 --> 01:25:31,880
and buy house, which is probably twice as expensive as here,

1748
01:25:32,399 --> 01:25:33,479
they're not letting you by it.

1749
01:25:33,520 --> 01:25:33,680
Speaker 1: Well.

1750
01:25:34,079 --> 01:25:39,880
Speaker 2: The other thing is to no very passionate about the election,

1751
01:25:40,079 --> 01:25:43,000
and and and great concern and things and rhetoric that

1752
01:25:43,039 --> 01:25:47,199
have been said that concern people. But I would say

1753
01:25:47,279 --> 01:25:51,359
that in the end, the president doesn't have a direct

1754
01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:52,239
impact on your.

1755
01:25:52,159 --> 01:25:55,800
Speaker 4: Daily life as much as that it just doesn't. It won't.

1756
01:25:56,239 --> 01:25:58,680
Speaker 2: I mean to a certain extent, there will be things

1757
01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:00,760
that change, but it's not it's not. I think it's

1758
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:04,359
more governors to have these yes, and local right on

1759
01:26:04,479 --> 01:26:07,239
the local level will have a greater impact on you.

1760
01:26:07,279 --> 01:26:10,000
Speaker 4: I'm not saying it doesn't matter. I'm not being naive.

1761
01:26:10,159 --> 01:26:14,119
I would just say the over reaction.

1762
01:26:13,800 --> 01:26:16,840
Speaker 2: To it at times is there are there things to

1763
01:26:16,920 --> 01:26:19,800
be concerned about. Maybe I don't know. Why don't we

1764
01:26:19,840 --> 01:26:21,159
wait and see? Right?

1765
01:26:21,279 --> 01:26:23,000
Speaker 4: I can't. I can't.

1766
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:27,119
Speaker 2: I can't be upset about what I don't know. It's

1767
01:26:27,119 --> 01:26:29,560
like having an argument with in your head with somebody

1768
01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:30,560
before you see them.

1769
01:26:30,560 --> 01:26:31,199
Speaker 4: Do you know what I mean?

1770
01:26:31,479 --> 01:26:35,239
Speaker 6: Seneca says, whoever worries more than necessary, worries more than necessary.

1771
01:26:35,319 --> 01:26:39,520
Speaker 2: Yeah. I just look, I get it, I get the concern,

1772
01:26:39,600 --> 01:26:42,359
and I see things. I vote one way for reasons,

1773
01:26:42,359 --> 01:26:45,039
somebody else votes another way. In the end, I love

1774
01:26:45,079 --> 01:26:48,279
this guy. That's what makes America great. Yes, exactly.

1775
01:26:48,640 --> 01:26:53,199
Speaker 4: And you know what, sometimes the freedom of choice, yes, right.

1776
01:26:53,399 --> 01:26:56,119
Speaker 2: Exactly, we will take them. Moment I would like to

1777
01:26:56,119 --> 01:26:59,039
introduce you to a great American. We call him race

1778
01:26:59,039 --> 01:27:01,840
and Randy. If you'll be able to understand this guy,

1779
01:27:02,319 --> 01:27:08,079
because now in America, I know, well Europe you have

1780
01:27:08,319 --> 01:27:12,680
the Formula One, which is wonderful racing to me. But

1781
01:27:12,800 --> 01:27:15,600
NASCAR is interesting. And it started out as bootleg runners

1782
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:17,560
in the United States. That's how they were doing it.

1783
01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:21,800
And uh, one of the originals has passed away. Bobby Allison.

1784
01:27:22,319 --> 01:27:26,199
Bobby Allison was a young guy who wanted to be

1785
01:27:26,239 --> 01:27:29,000
a race racer and he wound up going to Alabama

1786
01:27:29,039 --> 01:27:32,600
and winning a lot of money. And he actually he

1787
01:27:32,640 --> 01:27:34,079
was told by his parents if he was going to

1788
01:27:34,159 --> 01:27:36,760
live in their house, he was not allowed to race,

1789
01:27:37,279 --> 01:27:40,119
so he would put a different name in when we

1790
01:27:40,239 --> 01:27:42,039
go to race, And then he ended up in the

1791
01:27:42,039 --> 01:27:44,640
paper and he was looking at it and word got

1792
01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:46,319
back to his parents and his father said, if you're

1793
01:27:46,359 --> 01:27:47,880
going to do it, be proud of your name, and

1794
01:27:47,960 --> 01:27:50,760
so he used his name Bobby Allison. But originally his

1795
01:27:50,840 --> 01:27:52,720
mother told him I didn't know that I couldn't live

1796
01:27:52,760 --> 01:27:53,199
in the house.

1797
01:27:53,520 --> 01:27:57,319
Speaker 5: But then when he started producing a guess, he got it. Excellency,

1798
01:27:57,720 --> 01:27:58,039
got it.

1799
01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:01,600
Speaker 2: That's the thing, right you start winning, everybody loves the winter,

1800
01:28:02,119 --> 01:28:05,000
so we'll talk to him and a little bit more

1801
01:28:05,039 --> 01:28:07,239
with short show. We'll get to all that right after that.

1802
01:28:07,399 --> 01:28:10,279
Victor Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram. They're on Route ninety six

1803
01:28:10,359 --> 01:28:12,920
and Victor, you go out there, you're walking into a

1804
01:28:13,079 --> 01:28:15,720
state of the art dealership with a sales team that

1805
01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:19,399
knows their product better than anybody. You tell them your needs,

1806
01:28:19,800 --> 01:28:21,520
you tell them your budget. They're going to work with

1807
01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:24,119
you to get you into something safe and reliable. Now,

1808
01:28:24,199 --> 01:28:27,800
I have been driving a Jeep hybrid, the regular hybrid,

1809
01:28:28,359 --> 01:28:32,640
and I love it because I haven't really driven an

1810
01:28:32,680 --> 01:28:37,560
electric car on a consistent basis, and I absolutely love this.

1811
01:28:38,000 --> 01:28:41,920
It's great for cruising around town on electric, it really

1812
01:28:42,000 --> 01:28:45,239
and it drives the pick up. There's no difference. Maybe

1813
01:28:45,239 --> 01:28:47,720
it's a little quieter, that would be the only different.

1814
01:28:47,920 --> 01:28:51,560
But all the things you expect from Jeep still happen.

1815
01:28:52,000 --> 01:28:55,439
There's no domin It's fantastic. And look, they can work

1816
01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:57,800
with you and tell you about all their electric vehicles,

1817
01:28:57,840 --> 01:28:59,680

Oh yeah, no sorry.

1853
01:31:06,880 --> 01:31:09,319
Speaker 2: My grandfather used to always play Irish music on Sunday,

1854
01:31:09,359 --> 01:31:12,479
so there's radio station. He would play it every Sunday

1855
01:31:12,520 --> 01:31:13,239
in the backyard.

1856
01:31:13,279 --> 01:31:13,880
Speaker 4: It would be there.

1857
01:31:14,319 --> 01:31:17,239
Speaker 2: What Shorts is here? Shorts has had like a very

1858
01:31:17,279 --> 01:31:21,760
interesting life growing up in Ireland, becoming a part of

1859
01:31:21,800 --> 01:31:25,159
the Army and then the Joint Forces and Special Ops

1860
01:31:25,640 --> 01:31:29,039
running an English school in Brazil. Man who has that

1861
01:31:29,159 --> 01:31:29,560
on there?

1862
01:31:30,760 --> 01:31:31,960
Speaker 4: Like it's quite.

1863
01:31:33,479 --> 01:31:36,359
Speaker 2: Yeah it is, but I think it's awesome, Like you

1864
01:31:36,399 --> 01:31:39,560
know what I think? I think our problem as I

1865
01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:43,680
get older is I'm seeing that we put ourselves at

1866
01:31:43,760 --> 01:31:46,319
least and I don't know if this is a human

1867
01:31:46,399 --> 01:31:52,720
thing or an American thing. I am a blank and there. Yeah,

1868
01:31:52,760 --> 01:31:55,159
And and it's funny because we do it with artists,

1869
01:31:55,159 --> 01:31:58,479
we do it with others, and I go a true artist. Well,

1870
01:31:58,640 --> 01:32:02,159
you know, Picassa was a sculptor, right, but he painted

1871
01:32:02,399 --> 01:32:04,560
because you wanted him to paint, so he painted. But

1872
01:32:04,600 --> 01:32:07,239
he was a sculptor, which again we could say is

1873
01:32:07,279 --> 01:32:10,880
in the same vein of art, right, we could call

1874
01:32:10,920 --> 01:32:14,039
it art, but it's not the same. And you know

1875
01:32:14,319 --> 01:32:18,359
he could be absolutely different skills, right exactly when I

1876
01:32:18,359 --> 01:32:20,000
say the same vein. If I go to a museum,

1877
01:32:20,039 --> 01:32:21,960
I'm going to see a painting in a sculpt right,

1878
01:32:22,000 --> 01:32:23,439
so we would put it in the same thing. But

1879
01:32:23,840 --> 01:32:26,800
to your point, yes, it's too different. And that's where

1880
01:32:26,840 --> 01:32:29,680
I think many times we just box things up. And

1881
01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,239
so therefore on this and that, and I think, boy,

1882
01:32:32,239 --> 01:32:37,239
you miss out. And the Renaissance man to me was

1883
01:32:37,279 --> 01:32:41,439
the greatest there was. Like your father being a skilled carpenter, right,

1884
01:32:41,479 --> 01:32:44,439
probably could do many many many other can you work

1885
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:45,399
with tools and things?

1886
01:32:45,720 --> 01:32:48,600
Speaker 5: I did shop in school, yeah, but I can't build

1887
01:32:48,600 --> 01:32:51,720
a table. Okay, scuse like he can Yeah, that would

1888
01:32:51,720 --> 01:32:54,520
being a master kapenter. He can do all that fine detail, right.

1889
01:32:55,159 --> 01:32:57,359
I mean I'm sure I could knock up a table, right,

1890
01:32:57,600 --> 01:32:58,640
not as fancy as he could.

1891
01:32:58,680 --> 01:32:59,880
Speaker 4: Oh no, I know that's what I'm saying.

1892
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:03,840
Speaker 2: It's just but he could also probably write or sing

1893
01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:06,359
or play against you know, like all these things that

1894
01:33:06,359 --> 01:33:09,520
we just we pigeonhole somebody. And that's where I love

1895
01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:11,520
the idea that you were in the army and then

1896
01:33:11,520 --> 01:33:15,520
you're teaching English in South America. Did your family ever

1897
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:16,039
come visit?

1898
01:33:17,159 --> 01:33:19,479
Speaker 5: Not to Brazil. No, they've been here, yeah, but not

1899
01:33:19,520 --> 01:33:23,119
to Brazil. They were always afraid of Brazil. I constantly

1900
01:33:23,119 --> 01:33:25,880
told him it's fine, just come, and they didn't know.

1901
01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:28,039
Speaker 4: I can understand it a little bit.

1902
01:33:28,279 --> 01:33:30,439
Speaker 5: I mean before I was deployed to Africa and my

1903
01:33:30,520 --> 01:33:33,479
mom took a picture of me because she was afraid I.

1904
01:33:33,439 --> 01:33:36,079
Speaker 4: Was going to be decapitated. And I was like, thanks

1905
01:33:36,079 --> 01:33:37,119
for the confidence, mom.

1906
01:33:37,239 --> 01:33:38,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1907
01:33:39,439 --> 01:33:42,159
Speaker 4: In Africa, yeah, yeah, because ISIS was a thing, and

1908
01:33:42,319 --> 01:33:46,239
sure well they were probably going into did IIS have

1909
01:33:46,279 --> 01:33:49,920
a stronghold at all or any Ethiopia.

1910
01:33:49,960 --> 01:33:53,319
Speaker 5: And nothing, not that I'm aware of their true name

1911
01:33:53,399 --> 01:33:56,760
is Daesh. But that's that's a whole different ballgame.

1912
01:34:00,199 --> 01:34:01,000
Speaker 4: Now that I'm aware of.

1913
01:34:01,000 --> 01:34:04,359
Speaker 5: The Wagner group are very prominent in Africa back in

1914
01:34:04,399 --> 01:34:08,439
the early two thousands, which we've only heard about nowadays.

1915
01:34:08,479 --> 01:34:13,039
In Ukraine and Russia, they're mercenaries, Russian mercenaries.

1916
01:34:14,000 --> 01:34:15,680
Speaker 2: Race and Randy just said to me, it's not a

1917
01:34:15,680 --> 01:34:19,279
good time. I talked to him earlier. I'm sorry to

1918
01:34:19,319 --> 01:34:21,720
interrupt this because I have lots of other questions I

1919
01:34:21,720 --> 01:34:23,520
want to ask you, but I just have to tell you,

1920
01:34:23,560 --> 01:34:27,119
Danny the UH race and Randy goes, Uh, buddy, I'm

1921
01:34:27,159 --> 01:34:30,439
watching the championship race. Twenty three laps to go. Now

1922
01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:34,239
is not a good time. Championship race twenty three laps.

1923
01:34:34,600 --> 01:34:35,520
Speaker 3: This is their super Bowl.

1924
01:34:35,560 --> 01:34:36,000
Speaker 4: This is there?

1925
01:34:36,319 --> 01:34:38,079
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, oh yeah. They have two of them. The

1926
01:34:38,079 --> 01:34:39,119
first race is Daytona.

1927
01:34:39,199 --> 01:34:40,920
Speaker 6: That's like it's they start with the super Bowl and

1928
01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:43,159
they end with the super Bowl, the Championship.

1929
01:34:43,640 --> 01:34:44,399
Speaker 4: The UH.

1930
01:34:45,359 --> 01:34:49,439
Speaker 2: I always think, coming to this country, Uh. Like Danny

1931
01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:51,560
had asked you, what what are we not? What are

1932
01:34:51,560 --> 01:34:53,319
we not grateful for? What do we do you know?

1933
01:34:53,560 --> 01:34:53,960
Not seeing?

1934
01:34:54,000 --> 01:34:54,880
Speaker 3: What don't we appreciate?

1935
01:34:54,960 --> 01:34:56,239
Speaker 4: What the freedoms?

1936
01:34:56,279 --> 01:34:58,760
Speaker 2: I would say that you have here, But what is

1937
01:34:58,800 --> 01:35:01,159
it that that How does the rest of the world

1938
01:35:01,279 --> 01:35:05,000
see us versus like, what is the thinking of the

1939
01:35:05,199 --> 01:35:07,119
Let's say you're in the joint you're in that joint

1940
01:35:07,119 --> 01:35:10,279
task force. What what I would say, soldiers?

1941
01:35:10,279 --> 01:35:17,720
Speaker 5: I would say in general, most foreigners would regard Americans

1942
01:35:17,720 --> 01:35:22,159
as being cocky. Now I don't see that. I see

1943
01:35:22,159 --> 01:35:25,199
it as confidence. There's a difference between cockiness and confidence.

1944
01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:29,039
But a lot of people feel like or believe I

1945
01:35:29,039 --> 01:35:32,800
should say that Americans in general. Of course, you can't

1946
01:35:32,800 --> 01:35:35,600
paint everybody with the same brush. It's not like everybody

1947
01:35:35,600 --> 01:35:38,640
in China knows kung fu, right, It's like they don't,

1948
01:35:40,960 --> 01:35:43,960
or everybody in South Korea knows taekwondo or whatever. It's like,

1949
01:35:44,000 --> 01:35:46,840
you can't say that everybody in America is cocky.

1950
01:35:46,880 --> 01:35:47,600
Speaker 4: That's just silly.

1951
01:35:48,399 --> 01:35:50,600
Speaker 5: But it is, and it does seem to be the

1952
01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:56,000
general consensus to people outside of America. And I feel like,

1953
01:35:57,039 --> 01:35:59,239
of course it's incorrect, But I also feel like there's

1954
01:35:59,319 --> 01:36:02,800
a lot of and you know, social media, it's used

1955
01:36:02,840 --> 01:36:06,479
in many different ways to sway public opinion and and

1956
01:36:06,560 --> 01:36:10,760
to sway the general consensus in young people's minds, mostly

1957
01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:15,039
and there's a lot of you know, there's influencers, micro influences,

1958
01:36:15,039 --> 01:36:20,279
my macro influence whatever, silly, but we need less influencers

1959
01:36:20,279 --> 01:36:21,039
and more leaders.

1960
01:36:21,079 --> 01:36:23,800
Speaker 4: But we have this.

1961
01:36:23,840 --> 01:36:27,680
Speaker 5: Thing on social media where they would ask a relatively

1962
01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:33,439
will say room temperature IQ person a question like name

1963
01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:37,800
three cities in Europe and they can't so, and they

1964
01:36:37,840 --> 01:36:40,960
would ask several Americans that question and all of them,

1965
01:36:41,319 --> 01:36:44,000
would you know, they say something like Atlanta.

1966
01:36:44,159 --> 01:36:46,880
Speaker 2: Well, the idea of an ugly American, That's right, it's

1967
01:36:46,960 --> 01:36:48,680
sort of what that is.

1968
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:53,079
Speaker 4: Are completely uneducated, educated about the rest of the world,

1969
01:36:53,159 --> 01:36:53,479
or use.

1970
01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:54,760
Speaker 2: The word correctly, ignorant.

1971
01:36:55,239 --> 01:36:59,399
Speaker 5: Right, So it's like, but, like I said, social media,

1972
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:03,399
is you in that manner to give the impression that

1973
01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:05,720
Americans are dumb and that's not true?

1974
01:37:06,399 --> 01:37:10,239
Speaker 2: No, yeah, I would say, in a in a general sense, sure,

1975
01:37:10,479 --> 01:37:12,720
but I've noticed that a lot on social media.

1976
01:37:13,359 --> 01:37:15,760
Speaker 4: For the record, I hate social media.

1977
01:37:16,039 --> 01:37:20,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not a huge fan. I only really use

1978
01:37:20,119 --> 01:37:21,680
it to promote the podcast.

1979
01:37:21,359 --> 01:37:24,520
Speaker 5: Which is understandable. But like, right, but just scroll and

1980
01:37:24,520 --> 01:37:26,640
the scroll and the scroll, like shoot me.

1981
01:37:26,840 --> 01:37:31,199
Speaker 2: Yeah, mindless waste of time. Absolutely, you become a slave

1982
01:37:31,479 --> 01:37:34,840
to the thing. My fourteen year old son's phone broke

1983
01:37:35,159 --> 01:37:37,479
and he was the worst thing in the world. Well, yes,

1984
01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:40,439
he's lost right now and he kind of do need

1985
01:37:40,560 --> 01:37:42,439
him to have a phone so I know what's going

1986
01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:43,960
on and when to pick him up and all that's

1987
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:47,199
the track he's whereabout. Yes, but this is like you know,

1988
01:37:47,600 --> 01:37:50,159
I mean right now, I think it's pretty tough. Oh,

1989
01:37:50,199 --> 01:37:54,119
we've absolutely tunnel visioned our kids. Yeah, I think for him,

1990
01:37:54,159 --> 01:37:57,439
it's honestly a tough thing. And he gets a lot

1991
01:37:57,439 --> 01:38:00,239
of I guess there's some stuff on there that that's sure.

1992
01:38:00,399 --> 01:38:03,840
Speaker 4: Like anything, if you look for something educational, you find it.

1993
01:38:04,199 --> 01:38:07,479
Speaker 2: What about humanity as a whole? And I say that

1994
01:38:07,479 --> 01:38:09,640
that's a deep question. Well it is a deep question.

1995
01:38:09,720 --> 01:38:13,119
But I'll ask you that because you were in Ireland,

1996
01:38:13,159 --> 01:38:16,399
you grow up there, then you now you're Joint Task Force.

1997
01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:19,399
You've you've seen things that Dan and I will never see.

1998
01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:22,800
You've experienced things that we've never experienced.

1999
01:38:23,039 --> 01:38:24,399
Speaker 4: And yet you've and you've.

2000
01:38:24,199 --> 01:38:27,840
Speaker 2: Been to different continents, not just I mean you've been

2001
01:38:27,880 --> 01:38:32,119
on different continents. And what is it about humanity?

2002
01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:38,600
Speaker 4: I truly believe that everybody everywhere in the world are

2003
01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:42,439
the same. I really believe that, And I've I've been

2004
01:38:42,479 --> 01:38:44,640
in contact with a lot of different people from a

2005
01:38:44,720 --> 01:38:47,560
lot of different cultures, and we all just want to

2006
01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:50,199
be happy. We all want to love and be loved. Yeah,

2007
01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:53,119
we don't want to fight, right, Nobody wants to fight. Yeah.

2008
01:38:53,439 --> 01:38:56,000
Speaker 5: I fought for a long time in the Special Operations Group.

2009
01:38:57,039 --> 01:38:57,760
Did I want to?

2010
01:38:57,840 --> 01:38:58,239
Speaker 2: Sometimes?

2011
01:38:58,279 --> 01:38:58,560
Speaker 3: Sure?

2012
01:38:58,760 --> 01:39:01,239
Speaker 5: It was sometimes it was a kick, you know, But

2013
01:39:01,359 --> 01:39:04,039
at certain times, like I said to you before, the

2014
01:39:04,079 --> 01:39:04,600
person on.

2015
01:39:04,560 --> 01:39:07,560
Speaker 4: The other side of that radical is a dad, is

2016
01:39:07,640 --> 01:39:08,760
a brother, is a.

2017
01:39:08,600 --> 01:39:12,960
Speaker 5: Son, is a husband, and it and he's in the

2018
01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:17,920
same position. I am not only that though, like to like,

2019
01:39:18,479 --> 01:39:21,239
you know, to foreshadow that, or you know, to go

2020
01:39:21,319 --> 01:39:25,439
off on a different way. I think everybody is the same.

2021
01:39:25,840 --> 01:39:28,039
I really do think everybody is the same. I've never

2022
01:39:28,119 --> 01:39:33,640
met anybody regardless of rank, you know, how much money

2023
01:39:33,680 --> 01:39:35,880
they have in the bank, how much influence they have

2024
01:39:36,159 --> 01:39:40,880
or don't have. Everybody is the same. Every single person

2025
01:39:40,920 --> 01:39:43,720
I've encountered is the same. We all want the same

2026
01:39:43,760 --> 01:39:44,520
basic things.

2027
01:39:44,680 --> 01:39:47,560
Speaker 2: I was thinking that we know the idea of many

2028
01:39:47,600 --> 01:39:52,520
people say we're all one, We're all one, and I go, boy,

2029
01:39:53,119 --> 01:39:56,880
I have a couple of beliefs. Words don't teach experience

2030
01:39:57,039 --> 01:39:59,720
us right. So this idea that we're all wont easy

2031
01:39:59,720 --> 01:40:02,840
to say, but I believe that because at our core,

2032
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,720
I think we all want the basic same things, to

2033
01:40:05,760 --> 01:40:08,079
be loved, to be heard. I always think people just

2034
01:40:08,119 --> 01:40:10,680
want to be heard more than anything. I think that's

2035
01:40:10,960 --> 01:40:13,479
a great example of the election. I think you had

2036
01:40:13,520 --> 01:40:16,479
many people who feel like they don't count. And here's

2037
01:40:16,479 --> 01:40:18,840
somebody who's going to count for me, and you know,

2038
01:40:18,880 --> 01:40:21,840
and and stick up for me and show no matter what,

2039
01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:24,720
and I don't have to align with everything whatever. But

2040
01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:28,640
there are these things and I find that just very

2041
01:40:28,680 --> 01:40:34,000
interesting that you see that, because man, but you can

2042
01:40:34,079 --> 01:40:38,239
really put it into an ugly place, absolutely, you know,

2043
01:40:38,399 --> 01:40:40,720
you really can, and you go for what.

2044
01:40:41,000 --> 01:40:43,800
Speaker 4: Well, they say that the outward reflection of what you

2045
01:40:43,840 --> 01:40:47,640
see is the inward reflection of your inner self. Right, yeah, sure,

2046
01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:50,600
so they say whatever you notice about the world is

2047
01:40:50,600 --> 01:40:53,439
probably your internal turmoil. Yeah you know. So if you

2048
01:40:53,439 --> 01:40:55,479
think all the world's horrible, everyone's killing.

2049
01:40:55,359 --> 01:41:00,159
Speaker 5: Yes, it's something's inside you, right, It's like, yeah, it's you.

2050
01:41:00,279 --> 01:41:02,800
Speaker 2: Yeah. I always think like most of our life has

2051
01:41:02,840 --> 01:41:05,439
lived in our head. You know, you could have an incident,

2052
01:41:05,600 --> 01:41:08,039
well you would know, I mean, you have an incident happened,

2053
01:41:08,600 --> 01:41:11,720
and you get three different stories from three different people

2054
01:41:11,760 --> 01:41:12,439
an hour later.

2055
01:41:12,560 --> 01:41:13,319
Speaker 4: They're all different.

2056
01:41:13,600 --> 01:41:16,039
Speaker 5: There are three sides to a coin heads tails in

2057
01:41:16,079 --> 01:41:16,720
the Outer Ring.

2058
01:41:16,960 --> 01:41:20,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Never heard the Outer Ring,

2059
01:41:20,640 --> 01:41:23,680
But you're right, that's true. It's very true. What do

2060
01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:26,399
you love about America? Is there anything that jumps out

2061
01:41:26,439 --> 01:41:27,239
besides football?

2062
01:41:29,800 --> 01:41:35,319
Speaker 5: Well, speaking about football, since everybody's wearing Bill's attire, and yes, yes,

2063
01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:38,319
I will say that Josh Allen is better than last year,

2064
01:41:38,760 --> 01:41:40,199
although still not.

2065
01:41:40,159 --> 01:41:40,920
Speaker 2: Where he needs to be.

2066
01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:46,720
Speaker 4: I bee, you know he's getting better, but I don't know.

2067
01:41:47,039 --> 01:41:47,720
Speaker 2: I'm a foreigner.

2068
01:41:47,760 --> 01:41:49,159
Speaker 3: What do I know? I'm irish.

2069
01:41:49,800 --> 01:41:53,520
Speaker 5: I don't believe he's as elite as everyone claims to be.

2070
01:41:54,319 --> 01:41:58,199
If I compare him to other actual elite quarterbacks.

2071
01:41:58,279 --> 01:41:59,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, is he good?

2072
01:41:59,520 --> 01:42:00,359
Speaker 3: Sure? Good?

2073
01:42:01,119 --> 01:42:01,840
Speaker 2: Can he be better?

2074
01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:02,439
Speaker 4: Absolutely?

2075
01:42:03,119 --> 01:42:05,119
Speaker 5: And I don't think he's where he needs to be

2076
01:42:05,239 --> 01:42:08,119
right now. He needs to still improve, but he had

2077
01:42:08,119 --> 01:42:08,800
he is better.

2078
01:42:08,680 --> 01:42:09,439
Speaker 4: Than last year.

2079
01:42:10,520 --> 01:42:13,840
Speaker 2: Am I a Bills fan? No?

2080
01:42:14,000 --> 01:42:14,359
Speaker 4: What was.

2081
01:42:16,199 --> 01:42:17,119
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say? No?

2082
01:42:19,399 --> 01:42:23,159
Speaker 5: I like good games, I like good players. I don't

2083
01:42:23,199 --> 01:42:26,159
really align myself with quote unquote good teams.

2084
01:42:27,119 --> 01:42:28,760
Speaker 2: I really like, you know, good.

2085
01:42:28,640 --> 01:42:32,640
Speaker 5: Quarterbacks and good receivers, and I love every game I watch.

2086
01:42:33,319 --> 01:42:37,439
Speaker 4: It's not like I'm fanatical about one team. Right. My

2087
01:42:37,520 --> 01:42:40,199
wife loves the Bengals. Joe Burrow is amazing.

2088
01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:42,199
Speaker 3: She loves Joe Burrow.

2089
01:42:42,560 --> 01:42:49,680
Speaker 2: I love, but he is he is a good quarterback.

2090
01:42:49,760 --> 01:42:52,319
Speaker 5: But your quarterback is only as good as your receiver,

2091
01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:54,760
and so you it's a it's a combo, right.

2092
01:42:54,680 --> 01:42:55,119
Speaker 4: What what?

2093
01:42:55,119 --> 01:42:55,399
Speaker 3: What?

2094
01:42:55,439 --> 01:42:59,439
Speaker 2: When was the first time you saw American football? I

2095
01:42:59,479 --> 01:43:01,560
want to say, was a kid in Ireland? Now was

2096
01:43:01,600 --> 01:43:04,199
speaking of which there's gonna be games in Ireland?

2097
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:06,520
Speaker 6: Do they think there's Yeah, they think they're gonna ad

2098
01:43:06,520 --> 01:43:08,439
They're gonna be eight games in Europe, and they think

2099
01:43:08,479 --> 01:43:11,000
the eighth game is going to be in Ireland. College

2100
01:43:11,000 --> 01:43:13,920
football has actually grown tremendously in Ireland for some reason.

2101
01:43:13,920 --> 01:43:15,039
Speaker 3: They play a game there every year.

2102
01:43:15,039 --> 01:43:17,359
Speaker 5: Now, I really don't think it's going to take traction

2103
01:43:17,760 --> 01:43:22,880
as much as the federation, you know, I don't think

2104
01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:25,680
it's going to take as much traction as they may

2105
01:43:25,760 --> 01:43:27,520
hope or want.

2106
01:43:27,880 --> 01:43:30,079
Speaker 2: Is it going to take traction? Sure? It's cool.

2107
01:43:30,119 --> 01:43:31,840
Speaker 4: It's different. It's like rugby.

2108
01:43:32,039 --> 01:43:35,199
Speaker 5: Cool jerseys and cool helmets and stuff. It's like cooler,

2109
01:43:35,399 --> 01:43:38,279
you know, like rugby sometimes when you watch it it's

2110
01:43:38,319 --> 01:43:38,840
kind of born.

2111
01:43:39,000 --> 01:43:39,600
Speaker 3: Well, you can't.

2112
01:43:39,680 --> 01:43:44,720
Speaker 2: I can't just sare out scrummage after scrummage. I'd try

2113
01:43:44,760 --> 01:43:45,720
to watch football right now.

2114
01:43:46,159 --> 01:43:48,880
Speaker 6: The forward pass is the greatest invention in pro sports history,

2115
01:43:50,119 --> 01:43:53,760
bar none. It changed everything because football really is rugby

2116
01:43:53,880 --> 01:43:56,359
if you eliminate the forward pass.

2117
01:43:56,359 --> 01:43:57,199
Speaker 3: Like like the reason why.

2118
01:43:57,119 --> 01:43:59,399
Speaker 6: They were pads in football because President Roosevelt Teddy the

2119
01:43:59,399 --> 01:44:01,760
first one was gonna throw the sport out the window

2120
01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:04,279
because guys who are dying playing football unless they added

2121
01:44:04,359 --> 01:44:06,520
made it safer. So they added helmets and pads, and

2122
01:44:06,640 --> 01:44:08,520
someone came up with the idea. I forgot, who hey,

2123
01:44:08,520 --> 01:44:11,279
what if we threw the ball forward instead? Oh wow,

2124
01:44:11,479 --> 01:44:12,439
that's a great idea.

2125
01:44:13,399 --> 01:44:14,960
Speaker 3: Changed everything, right.

2126
01:44:15,039 --> 01:44:18,760
Speaker 5: So, like I said, I don't align myself with any

2127
01:44:18,800 --> 01:44:23,159
particular team, although I do because I'm in the same room.

2128
01:44:23,239 --> 01:44:26,119
Speaker 2: I have to watch Bengals, gotcha, right, And I enjoy

2129
01:44:26,239 --> 01:44:27,239
I enjoy watching them.

2130
01:44:27,239 --> 01:44:29,920
Speaker 5: And we watched the Bills too. They had a great

2131
01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:34,359
game today. I wins a win. It was ugly, I mean,

2132
01:44:34,399 --> 01:44:38,600
but yeah, it's I've noticed that the Bills in the

2133
01:44:39,039 --> 01:44:41,760
generally speaking, in the first in the second quarter, I

2134
01:44:41,840 --> 01:44:44,000
kind of mid can't say nowadays.

2135
01:44:44,279 --> 01:44:45,840
Speaker 2: And then in the third and the fourth they step

2136
01:44:45,880 --> 01:44:48,880
it up. They seem to adjust it halftime. I don't know,

2137
01:44:48,960 --> 01:44:49,920
it's like they had get.

2138
01:44:49,800 --> 01:44:53,000
Speaker 4: The second wind and they're like, okay, now we're smashing heads. Yes,

2139
01:44:53,119 --> 01:44:56,399
you know, yeah, that's interesting. What do we get right?

2140
01:44:57,560 --> 01:44:58,520
Do you think in America?

2141
01:44:59,319 --> 01:45:02,000
Speaker 2: I know that's a really broad question, and maybe of

2142
01:45:02,039 --> 01:45:04,680
a difficult one and maybe even a dumb one. But

2143
01:45:04,760 --> 01:45:07,279
what do we get right? Is there something on the

2144
01:45:07,560 --> 01:45:09,880
you know, is the freedom's right? Is the freedom of

2145
01:45:09,880 --> 01:45:11,960
the press right? I would assume it's pretty said.

2146
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:14,239
Speaker 5: I mean, you said freedoms, but there are a lot

2147
01:45:14,239 --> 01:45:17,840
of freedoms that are being taken away or being capped.

2148
01:45:18,000 --> 01:45:20,319
Let's say, so, for example, in New York State, Yeah.

2149
01:45:20,159 --> 01:45:21,680
Speaker 2: Sure you can have a pistol.

2150
01:45:21,359 --> 01:45:23,159
Speaker 4: But you have to have a permit, you have to

2151
01:45:23,199 --> 01:45:25,560
do a course. Now that's because of the you know,

2152
01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:30,520
because of local or whatever. But regardless, you still have

2153
01:45:30,640 --> 01:45:33,640
that freedom to have a pistol permit or have a

2154
01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:34,920
pistol on your waistband.

2155
01:45:35,680 --> 01:45:36,279
Speaker 2: Now in New.

2156
01:45:36,239 --> 01:45:38,760
Speaker 5: York there's a lot of loopholes you have to jump through,

2157
01:45:39,159 --> 01:45:42,600
but you still have that ability to have a concealed

2158
01:45:42,600 --> 01:45:45,960
carry permit and a pistol in your quote unquote pocket

2159
01:45:45,960 --> 01:45:47,960
whatever you're gonna call it. In Ireland, you do not

2160
01:45:48,039 --> 01:45:50,760
have that freedom. Sure, there's a lot of red tape

2161
01:45:50,760 --> 01:45:54,520
in New York, but you can have it. There's a

2162
01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:56,880
lot of freedoms when it comes to like, you know,

2163
01:45:58,000 --> 01:46:02,039
cars for example, like big power hungry V eight muscle

2164
01:46:02,119 --> 01:46:06,279
cars that are guzzling gasoline. Right in Ireland, we don't

2165
01:46:06,279 --> 01:46:10,520
have that. We're either diesel or like one point two

2166
01:46:10,640 --> 01:46:15,279
liter inlane three you have to turn you air conditioned

2167
01:46:15,359 --> 01:46:21,560
enough to go up the hill, or you have a tesla.

2168
01:46:22,000 --> 01:46:22,239
Speaker 4: You know.

2169
01:46:22,359 --> 01:46:24,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, good luck with that, right.

2170
01:46:25,960 --> 01:46:30,359
Speaker 5: So, like I said, you want something, you can get

2171
01:46:30,399 --> 01:46:35,199
it in America absolutely without a doubt, whether it's easy,

2172
01:46:35,439 --> 01:46:38,439
like we're for some whatever reason, we're talking about guns.

2173
01:46:38,560 --> 01:46:40,880
If you're in a constitutional carry state, you can just

2174
01:46:40,920 --> 01:46:43,239
go and buy one, or if it's New York you

2175
01:46:43,279 --> 01:46:45,279
have to jump through loopholes, but you can still have one.

2176
01:46:47,079 --> 01:46:49,279
So no matter what state you're in, you can have one.

2177
01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:53,199
So that in that sense, whatever you want in the

2178
01:46:53,319 --> 01:46:57,840
United States, you know, pending in parentheses, you can get

2179
01:46:57,880 --> 01:47:01,960
it or have it or do it. I think that's

2180
01:47:02,039 --> 01:47:05,720
that's the biggest thing America as a whole has gotten, right, Yeah,

2181
01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:07,439
I always that's based off the Constitution.

2182
01:47:07,520 --> 01:47:09,600
Speaker 4: It is off the constitution, right, that is.

2183
01:47:09,720 --> 01:47:11,680
Speaker 2: And I would always kind of kind of go more

2184
01:47:11,720 --> 01:47:13,920
to the libertarian in that I don't care what you

2185
01:47:13,960 --> 01:47:16,159
do as long as it's not hurting me or so.

2186
01:47:16,199 --> 01:47:18,680
Speaker 4: My wife and I are traditional libertarian.

2187
01:47:18,760 --> 01:47:21,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say that, you know, I probably would

2188
01:47:21,399 --> 01:47:23,359
lean more that way. I don't care as long as

2189
01:47:23,399 --> 01:47:25,239
it's not going to hurt somebody. I don't like the

2190
01:47:25,720 --> 01:47:30,039
less government is better. I always well, I always think

2191
01:47:30,119 --> 01:47:33,960
that the government kind of fox stuff up. It just

2192
01:47:34,000 --> 01:47:38,560
gets too big, which I hate human suffering. But sometimes

2193
01:47:38,560 --> 01:47:40,520
they even go boy even that they're going to get

2194
01:47:40,520 --> 01:47:44,079
wrong in a way to help people that you almost

2195
01:47:44,119 --> 01:47:47,119
wish that could be privatized, you know, the gig economy.

2196
01:47:47,239 --> 01:47:49,119
I mean, you know, you don't have to get a

2197
01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:51,439
you have to have a license, you have to have

2198
01:47:51,479 --> 01:47:54,680
a registered car. Okay, I understand that, but you're not

2199
01:47:54,720 --> 01:47:58,199
getting a medallion to be a taxi driver. And that's

2200
01:47:58,239 --> 01:48:01,960
a government bureaucracy that you know. So it does seem

2201
01:48:02,000 --> 01:48:04,159
like some of those things, if we can just eliminate

2202
01:48:04,479 --> 01:48:06,560
the man, sometimes things run smooth.

2203
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:10,760
Speaker 5: Well, I remember it coming back from Pennsylvania and I

2204
01:48:10,760 --> 01:48:13,239
don't know if it's sixty five or seventy five or coming,

2205
01:48:13,560 --> 01:48:15,880
you know, on the road, and all of a sudden,

2206
01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:20,800
the same dead straight road that goes on like from

2207
01:48:20,880 --> 01:48:25,000
seventy five down to thirty five for no reason whatsoever.

2208
01:48:24,680 --> 01:48:28,079
Speaker 4: And of course the sheriff for a troopers for.

2209
01:48:28,439 --> 01:48:30,840
Speaker 5: And then two hundred jags down the road it comes

2210
01:48:30,840 --> 01:48:31,640
back up to sixty.

2211
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:33,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, what was that for.

2212
01:48:33,520 --> 01:48:36,640
Speaker 5: It's the same stretch of road. Some things like that

2213
01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:39,800
don't make sense to me. It almost feels like a trap.

2214
01:48:39,840 --> 01:48:42,239
It is just a trap to make money, it is.

2215
01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:47,119
So they're cast grabs and that's fine whatever whatever.

2216
01:48:49,560 --> 01:48:53,840
Speaker 6: That's interesting story where like when you were with AMR

2217
01:48:53,920 --> 01:48:56,039
where you had to go through a training simulation where

2218
01:48:56,039 --> 01:48:58,720
they put you in this like house and they faked

2219
01:48:58,760 --> 01:49:01,319
everybody's injuries and that they said, Suresha, you will not

2220
01:49:01,359 --> 01:49:04,039
get through this quote unquote alive and you beat the text.

2221
01:49:04,159 --> 01:49:04,680
Speaker 2: Remember that.

2222
01:49:04,800 --> 01:49:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a great story.

2223
01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:09,920
Speaker 5: Yes, I told Dan a story about So there's a

2224
01:49:10,159 --> 01:49:13,279
there's a thing called sim day or simulation day. It's

2225
01:49:13,279 --> 01:49:16,520
a whole entire day of different types of scenarios that

2226
01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:20,880
would probably happen in your everyday life, and you guess

2227
01:49:20,920 --> 01:49:21,600
that they happen.

2228
01:49:22,159 --> 01:49:22,520
Speaker 2: And so.

2229
01:49:24,359 --> 01:49:28,479
Speaker 5: I went in with a partner, Roots or Roots was

2230
01:49:28,520 --> 01:49:30,680
her name. She was from Ukraine. I think she still

2231
01:49:30,680 --> 01:49:34,439
works there. We came into the room, pitch black couldn't

2232
01:49:34,439 --> 01:49:37,560
see a damn thing. I of course, I always have

2233
01:49:37,600 --> 01:49:40,319
a light on me. I'm like, but it's magnetic. I'm

2234
01:49:40,319 --> 01:49:42,159
like clack, and it's like lit up the whole room.

2235
01:49:42,199 --> 01:49:46,159
There's like medicine empty, medicine balls everywhere, and like insulin

2236
01:49:46,880 --> 01:49:51,079
you know, sharps everywhere. Well not the actual needle, but

2237
01:49:51,159 --> 01:49:54,239
it looked like an insulin pen. And so they were

2238
01:49:54,279 --> 01:49:57,399
like totally irate, shouting like get the hell out of

2239
01:49:57,439 --> 01:50:01,359
this room, and like a real situation. Well, there was

2240
01:50:01,399 --> 01:50:05,960
a a patient on this on the chair having DK

2241
01:50:06,520 --> 01:50:11,039
diabetic acoptosis, where you can where your your blood sugar

2242
01:50:11,079 --> 01:50:15,000
is either super high or super low and you're basically

2243
01:50:15,000 --> 01:50:16,800
in a in a kind of a coma. Let's say,

2244
01:50:17,119 --> 01:50:21,680
I'm you know, simplifying everything. And so he's sitting there

2245
01:50:21,960 --> 01:50:24,399
and the first thing I see is a blue gun.

2246
01:50:24,479 --> 01:50:27,800
It's a simulation firearm kind of like behind his butt.

2247
01:50:28,920 --> 01:50:31,600
So I nudged my partner. I'm like, look at that,

2248
01:50:32,199 --> 01:50:33,560
and she looked at it and she was like, oh

2249
01:50:33,560 --> 01:50:35,920
my gosh. I'm like, I took it out. No, I

2250
01:50:35,920 --> 01:50:38,880
did a little pinch and I put it under the

2251
01:50:39,399 --> 01:50:42,039
chair and I kicked it all the way under the sofa.

2252
01:50:42,520 --> 01:50:44,880
And he also had a knife in his pocket. He's

2253
01:50:44,920 --> 01:50:47,199
actual personal knife that he wasn't going to use for

2254
01:50:47,239 --> 01:50:47,840
the simulation.

2255
01:50:48,640 --> 01:50:49,359
Speaker 2: I picked that up.

2256
01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:53,319
Speaker 5: I put it up on the shelf and the simulation

2257
01:50:53,439 --> 01:50:55,439
started going through its paces and stuff like that. And

2258
01:50:55,680 --> 01:50:58,479
then he woke up and he started getting really like agitated,

2259
01:50:58,720 --> 01:51:01,039
and he was looking for the training pissed and he

2260
01:51:01,039 --> 01:51:03,960
couldn't find it. And then he looked for his knife

2261
01:51:03,960 --> 01:51:07,359
and he couldn't find that, so he cleaned his fist.

2262
01:51:07,439 --> 01:51:08,199
Speaker 4: He's like, if you don't.

2263
01:51:08,039 --> 01:51:10,000
Speaker 5: Get out of here, I'm gonna, you know, kill you

2264
01:51:10,119 --> 01:51:14,439
or whatever. So I left, but I was pulling my partner.

2265
01:51:14,479 --> 01:51:15,920
She was like, no, we have to stay here and

2266
01:51:15,960 --> 01:51:16,399
help him.

2267
01:51:16,439 --> 01:51:17,359
Speaker 2: Like, no, we don't.

2268
01:51:17,760 --> 01:51:19,439
Speaker 4: We're getting out of here, and we're calling NORPD.

2269
01:51:19,640 --> 01:51:20,000
Speaker 2: Let's go.

2270
01:51:21,319 --> 01:51:24,920
Speaker 5: So I left the room and she was still inside

2271
01:51:24,920 --> 01:51:26,439
and I'm like, get out.

2272
01:51:26,760 --> 01:51:30,600
Speaker 4: Get out of there, and I had to pull her out, and.

2273
01:51:30,560 --> 01:51:33,079
Speaker 5: So the simulation you know end or whatever, you know,

2274
01:51:34,239 --> 01:51:37,279
and they were so pissed at me that they had

2275
01:51:37,279 --> 01:51:41,479
to change the entire simulation because nobody noticed the pistol

2276
01:51:41,479 --> 01:51:45,319
prior and nobody ever took the knife out. Wow, So

2277
01:51:45,399 --> 01:51:48,239
I completely changed the game to the point where he

2278
01:51:48,319 --> 01:51:49,399
had to like hide.

2279
01:51:49,439 --> 01:51:51,119
Speaker 2: Is that all that you think? That's all your your

2280
01:51:51,119 --> 01:51:52,560
military training? Absolutely?

2281
01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:55,640
Speaker 5: Yeah, And they had to change the whole entire simulation there,

2282
01:51:56,239 --> 01:51:58,760
and the that was that's funny you remember that.

2283
01:51:58,840 --> 01:52:04,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's anything scared you. I know that's a silly question,

2284
01:52:04,359 --> 01:52:07,680
but just think about like, you know here you do

2285
01:52:08,039 --> 01:52:12,000
special ops basically right joint, you're over in other countries.

2286
01:52:12,039 --> 01:52:13,079
Speaker 4: Then you go to a.

2287
01:52:13,079 --> 01:52:17,680
Speaker 2: Country for I guess a woman originally, but you get

2288
01:52:17,680 --> 01:52:19,159
there and then you build the school.

2289
01:52:19,199 --> 01:52:20,920
Speaker 4: There's like it is there?

2290
01:52:21,600 --> 01:52:22,760
Speaker 2: What's the mindset?

2291
01:52:22,920 --> 01:52:28,479
Speaker 4: Is it? I guess fear has its perks, S does

2292
01:52:28,560 --> 01:52:30,119
if you're Yeah, that's a great way to put it.

2293
01:52:30,119 --> 01:52:33,560
Speaker 5: Adrenaline can help you get out of situation sometimes, yeah,

2294
01:52:33,760 --> 01:52:37,800
and if you don't have adrenaline, So just so everybody

2295
01:52:37,880 --> 01:52:42,319
has adrenaline pumping through their body if they're getting into

2296
01:52:42,399 --> 01:52:46,239
a fistfight, a knife fight, a gunfight about whatever, going

2297
01:52:46,319 --> 01:52:50,840
really fast in the car. The difference is controlling that adrenaline.

2298
01:52:51,079 --> 01:52:53,760
If someone says to you, I'm afraid of nothing, they're

2299
01:52:53,800 --> 01:52:57,319
probably a psychopath. You probably have no feelings and no

2300
01:52:57,359 --> 01:53:01,760
frontal cortex at all. Everybody he fears something like if

2301
01:53:01,800 --> 01:53:04,920
I'm a perfect example. I was at speedway one day

2302
01:53:05,439 --> 01:53:08,159
pumping gas and this guy came up behind me.

2303
01:53:08,159 --> 01:53:10,560
Speaker 2: He's like, you don't fucking see me. I'm like, excuse me.

2304
01:53:11,000 --> 01:53:12,720
Speaker 4: He's like, you didn't see me fucking coming in there.

2305
01:53:13,119 --> 01:53:16,600
I'm like in the exit, he's like, yeah, you didn't

2306
01:53:16,600 --> 01:53:17,720
see me fucking coming in there.

2307
01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:20,159
Speaker 5: He was like having a bad day, and he had

2308
01:53:20,159 --> 01:53:24,960
a T shirt that said arm me across it. For

2309
01:53:25,039 --> 01:53:27,199
whatever reason, he was just having a really bad day.

2310
01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:31,199
And I could feel the blood pressure building up in

2311
01:53:31,239 --> 01:53:34,479
my neck because I thought fists were gonna start flying,

2312
01:53:34,920 --> 01:53:40,199
if not worse. So the adrenaline helped me to prepare

2313
01:53:40,399 --> 01:53:44,840
for what might come. But I talked him down. And

2314
01:53:44,880 --> 01:53:48,159
that's the difference between controlling your fear and adrenaline and

2315
01:53:48,199 --> 01:53:50,760
just letting your adrenaline take control, because I could have

2316
01:53:50,800 --> 01:53:53,840
turned around and just clocked him, because my adrenaline just

2317
01:53:53,960 --> 01:53:56,279
went out of control and just you know, bang, you know,

2318
01:53:56,479 --> 01:53:59,000
and then I would have been in jail, sued, whatever,

2319
01:53:59,239 --> 01:54:04,000
because I was wrestler. So anybody who says they're not

2320
01:54:04,039 --> 01:54:04,720
afraid is lying.

2321
01:54:05,079 --> 01:54:09,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, what what is your mindset? Mostly though positive that

2322
01:54:09,479 --> 01:54:11,640
you can pretty much do anything. I mean, yeah, that's

2323
01:54:11,720 --> 01:54:14,279
quite a very career when you think about anything. No,

2324
01:54:14,359 --> 01:54:17,840
but I mean I understand, right within limits. Everybody should

2325
01:54:17,840 --> 01:54:21,399
know their own limits. A man should definitely kind of

2326
01:54:21,680 --> 01:54:23,800
know where your skill set is. But to be able

2327
01:54:23,800 --> 01:54:26,960
to do all these different things takes a confidence and

2328
01:54:27,640 --> 01:54:29,760
there are so many things.

2329
01:54:29,439 --> 01:54:30,680
Speaker 4: That could be a setback.

2330
01:54:31,199 --> 01:54:33,880
Speaker 2: And I always say, don't tell you know, go forth

2331
01:54:33,880 --> 01:54:36,479
and tell no one whatever your plans are, because keep

2332
01:54:36,520 --> 01:54:40,239
them in secret. Yeah, whoever loves whoever loves you, is

2333
01:54:40,319 --> 01:54:42,560
gonna tell you all the reasons. It's not gonna work,

2334
01:54:42,720 --> 01:54:44,640
not to be an asshole to you, right because they

2335
01:54:44,680 --> 01:54:47,479
are concerned or they've had an experience or whatever. But

2336
01:54:47,520 --> 01:54:48,880
that's not your experience.

2337
01:54:48,920 --> 01:54:52,000
Speaker 5: Well, behind every great man is a great woman. Yeah,

2338
01:54:52,039 --> 01:54:56,880
So I believe that, I honestly believe, I really do.

2339
01:54:57,199 --> 01:54:59,800
I believe that I'm not talking to just about your

2340
01:55:00,159 --> 01:55:02,439
So I'm talking about your mom, your grandmother.

2341
01:55:02,359 --> 01:55:02,800
Speaker 4: Your aunt.

2342
01:55:03,479 --> 01:55:09,000
Speaker 5: I believe that there is a foundation between every in

2343
01:55:09,079 --> 01:55:14,079
every good man with a good woman, whether that's your

2344
01:55:14,119 --> 01:55:18,399
mom or your spouse, you know, and vice versa. I'm

2345
01:55:18,439 --> 01:55:20,640
sure behind every good woman is a good.

2346
01:55:20,479 --> 01:55:23,600
Speaker 4: Man, right, It's just the way it is.

2347
01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:27,239
Speaker 5: And I believe that if I wanted to do something

2348
01:55:27,319 --> 01:55:33,319
right now, whatever that may be business wise, academically, physically,

2349
01:55:34,279 --> 01:55:36,600
I am absolutely positive that my wife Tanil would say,

2350
01:55:36,640 --> 01:55:40,039
you got it. I absolutely believe that, and that confidence

2351
01:55:40,079 --> 01:55:43,399
from your better half gives you more. You can say, okay,

2352
01:55:43,399 --> 01:55:45,960
I can. If she believes in me, I better believe

2353
01:55:46,039 --> 01:55:49,359
myself because if I don't, I'm an idiot because if

2354
01:55:49,399 --> 01:55:51,319
she sees that in me, I don't know why I

2355
01:55:51,319 --> 01:55:51,760
don't see that.

2356
01:55:52,159 --> 01:55:53,479
Speaker 4: I just met you, but I don't think there's a

2357
01:55:53,479 --> 01:55:56,399
whole hell of a lot you couldn't do well.

2358
01:55:56,399 --> 01:55:59,279
Speaker 5: I can squat four hundred pounds, four hundred and twenty pounds.

2359
01:55:59,319 --> 01:56:01,800
I might my knee cat yeah, okay.

2360
01:56:02,079 --> 01:56:03,600
Speaker 2: I have a kid who probably was I think he

2361
01:56:03,640 --> 01:56:06,640
was up around five Jordan, oh really yeah, and then

2362
01:56:06,720 --> 01:56:08,359
he tore his laborham.

2363
01:56:08,840 --> 01:56:11,000
Speaker 4: Yeah. I don't want to shoulder or shoulder not from that.

2364
01:56:11,239 --> 01:56:14,680
Speaker 2: Knowing your limits is good ideaeah stories, popped it out

2365
01:56:14,720 --> 01:56:18,279
of socket, just had surgery, the whole thing. But he's, uh,

2366
01:56:18,359 --> 01:56:20,640
weightlifting is sort of his life too, so that's the.

2367
01:56:20,640 --> 01:56:21,239
Speaker 4: Sort of the thing.

2368
01:56:21,760 --> 01:56:23,520
Speaker 2: Well, this has been a lot of fun. I really

2369
01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:24,399

four champ. Well, wow, he called it too, Yeah, he

2375
01:56:40,319 --> 01:56:41,039
did so every year.

2376
01:56:41,079 --> 01:56:43,159
Speaker 6: I interview rac and Randy for the Times Wayne County

2377
01:56:43,159 --> 01:56:44,640
and asked him, I go, who's winning it all?

2378
01:56:44,720 --> 01:56:46,840
Speaker 3: And I said, it's Nascar. It's hard to pick one

2379
01:56:46,840 --> 01:56:47,720
out of whippy driver.

2380
01:56:48,279 --> 01:56:50,680
Speaker 6: So he gives me five drivers and he usually like

2381
01:56:50,760 --> 01:56:51,279
nails it.

2382
01:56:51,520 --> 01:56:52,520
Speaker 3: And he nailed it.

2383
01:56:52,640 --> 01:56:54,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, he did nail it. If you had money on it.

2384
01:56:54,960 --> 01:56:58,560
Speaker 3: No, not really. I should have, but no I didn't.

2385
01:56:58,520 --> 01:56:59,600
Speaker 4: No money.

2386
01:56:59,680 --> 01:56:59,720
Speaker 2: No.

2387
01:57:00,760 --> 01:57:05,880
Speaker 6: I I I bet on football and I lose. I

2388
01:57:06,600 --> 01:57:09,840
went four and two today. It's not bad with the spread,

2389
01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:12,319
you know, you know, you know how I lost. I

2390
01:57:12,359 --> 01:57:15,279
thought Indy would cover. Oh with the bills, I thought

2391
01:57:15,279 --> 01:57:16,920
the bills would I thought Indy would cover And then

2392
01:57:16,920 --> 01:57:19,880
San Francisco gave Tampa Bay six and a half.

2393
01:57:20,039 --> 01:57:22,840
Speaker 3: Spread was three and a half. It was a trap game.

2394
01:57:23,199 --> 01:57:25,479
Sures that the trap was on us who said it

2395
01:57:25,479 --> 01:57:27,319
was a trap game. But the Bills didn't play well.

2396
01:57:27,560 --> 01:57:31,600
Fortunately well. Alan didn't play well, defense played well. Joe

2397
01:57:31,600 --> 01:57:33,520
Flacco certainly did not play well at all.

2398
01:57:33,600 --> 01:57:34,520
Speaker 2: His Alan moments.

2399
01:57:34,720 --> 01:57:37,079
Speaker 6: He had his moments, but like Alan, he may be

2400
01:57:37,159 --> 01:57:39,760
the reason Dalton Kacaid might be out for a while.

2401
01:57:40,279 --> 01:57:42,439
That one pass in the second quarter where it should

2402
01:57:42,479 --> 01:57:44,439
have been a touchdown. If Allen actually sets his feet

2403
01:57:44,479 --> 01:57:47,119
and throws the ball on that third down play and

2404
01:57:47,479 --> 01:57:49,039
Kakaid doesn't have to reach for it, he doesn't land

2405
01:57:49,079 --> 01:57:50,760
on his knee, they think that's how he got hurt.

2406
01:57:51,960 --> 01:57:53,600
Speaker 2: Uh, Well, we'll close it out.

2407
01:57:53,600 --> 01:57:56,760
Speaker 4: We'll talk to Randy another time. Shortia, I have had

2408
01:57:57,600 --> 01:57:59,079
I find it really.

2409
01:57:58,800 --> 01:58:00,960
Speaker 2: Interesting all this stuff, if you've done, I think it's

2410
01:58:01,199 --> 01:58:03,960
fascinating and it was a pleasure being here. I think

2411
01:58:03,960 --> 01:58:06,840
you need to write a Hallmark movie about you and

2412
01:58:06,920 --> 01:58:08,479
your wife. Well, I think you should have my wife

2413
01:58:08,479 --> 01:58:11,720
in here. I would love to have you. Love her. Yeah, absolutely,

2414
01:58:12,159 --> 01:58:14,199
she's smart and she's an acupuncturist.

2415
01:58:14,479 --> 01:58:14,960
Speaker 4: That's right.

2416
01:58:15,079 --> 01:58:16,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, she'll be with my migraines.

2417
01:58:17,359 --> 01:58:20,319
Speaker 2: I think it's great. I love that kind of stuff.

2418
01:58:20,680 --> 01:58:21,880
Speaker 4: I think I think.

2419
01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:23,720
Speaker 2: Shortia I sort of said it a little while ago.

2420
01:58:23,840 --> 01:58:26,800
Everything we need is already here, right, we don't need

2421
01:58:26,800 --> 01:58:27,399
this synthetic.

2422
01:58:27,479 --> 01:58:29,039
Speaker 6: She could put the needles in my back and tell me,

2423
01:58:29,079 --> 01:58:30,079
are you taking this?

2424
01:58:30,199 --> 01:58:31,840
Speaker 3: I go, yeah, how'd you know? I could tell by

2425
01:58:31,840 --> 01:58:32,960
the stop that.

2426
01:58:33,199 --> 01:58:36,760
Speaker 2: Okay, Danny's been bragging about you for a while.

2427
01:58:36,800 --> 01:58:39,800
Speaker 4: By the way, oh really both, yes, yes, I appreciate that.

2428
01:58:39,880 --> 01:58:43,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, and saying like, you know, wow, he's my supplement guy,

2429
01:58:43,720 --> 01:58:45,760
and I always go, Danny, he's got too many stuff.

2430
01:58:46,079 --> 01:58:47,000
And I've said that too.

2431
01:58:47,119 --> 01:58:48,760
Speaker 3: I know, he says my wife.

2432
01:58:49,359 --> 01:58:52,479
Speaker 2: I know you know more than I do for Shortia,

2433
01:58:53,079 --> 01:58:56,479
for Dan Barillo, the Buffalo bills. Man, I'm Bill Moran.

2434
01:58:56,640 --> 01:59:02,960
We'll see you tomorrow. WA can't either looking or counter
