  Speaker 1: Don't think it wasn't Don't think I wasn't tempting. If

  Speaker 1: I'd have known it was out, I would have been

  Speaker 1: the night, we're gonna talk about the ten of the
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: most beautiful towns in the United States, and they are
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: as follows and so bad. You don't I can't see
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: him like I can. But Jackson, Wyoming is definitely up
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: there is I think number one. Well, I mean Jackson, Wyoming.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: You ever been to Jackson, Wyo?
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: I have, It's beautiful.
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: Anything else you want to add about Jackson Wyhomy?
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Well, when I was there, it was in the middle
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: of wintertime and the wind was howking, so we didn't
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: want to spend much time outside the vehicle. In fact,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: it was like we were driving a motor home across
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: all of Wyoming and you can only do about twenty
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: five miles an hour because of the wind because we
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: were changing lanes all over the place.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Wow, but it is it's beautiful up there.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Thanks Candy. And he talks about jack O, Wyoming. What
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: do you know about it?
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: I have never been there before. But if it's on
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: the most Beautiful places, it sounds like a bucket list
• 3:51
  Speaker 3: item for sure.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: I we'll just go over the list and then we
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: can proceed from there. The next one is Burr Herbert,
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: and I would think anywhere you're going, man, it's got
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: to be beautiful, especially if there's water connected to it.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: Steve, Yes, been there or as the locals say, bha.
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: Oh that's right, you're from a New England area.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it is a beautiful place right there on the ocean. Oh,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: that water is cold up there, even in the middle
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: of the summertime. That water will wake you up.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Well, Candy, obviously you've been there so yearly probably don't
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: have a commonent, but just in by the pictures that
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: looks really nice of the mountains and the water and
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: some of the hotels around there. I know Candy is
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: one of those individuals who can research on the fly
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: as well. So so we're pretty much well.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: We've talked to Scott that one of our bucket list
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: items is to take ninety five and go all the
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: way up, So some point maybe we will be able
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: to do that and get there. Although I think even
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: ah Bar Harbor isn't on ninety five. So let's see,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: it's a little long, it's a little off ninety five,
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: but ninety five keeps going, so yeah, we could definitely.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: Y that's not that far off.
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: No, it's not that far off, but.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: Sounds good to me. Let me tell you what we.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: Did the well watching thing up there.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Beautiful. Really, let me tell you what this Honda honesty
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: that I have. I can do an awful lot of
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: things with this vehicle and I don't have a lot
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: of miles on it because I've been pretty much out
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: of driving business for a little while. So but let's
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: move out of the next one. I could test to
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: this one Sedona, Arizona. Ever been there with the Red Rocks. No,
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I have never been. I've been in Arizona, but not
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: just Sedona. Oh that's heaven on earth than Steve.
• 5:55
  Speaker 3: So, Steve, we got these backwards because this one I've
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: been to, You've been to the and this is beautiful.
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. But I will say I have a story.
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: So we were in We were in Sedona, me and
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: my parents years and years ago with my siblings, and
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: our car actually broke down in Sedona. So it was
• 6:17
  Speaker 3: it was a positive and negative because obviously we had
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: to stay there longer. But it was a beautiful place
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: to be. Like you just looked all around and there's
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: a concert venue in there that I mean, there's just
• 6:30
  Speaker 3: a lot of different places. It's definitely beautiful. Gotta go see.
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: Should be a bucket list item definitely.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, I'll tell you I'd love to go
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: to this place called Whitefish, Montana.
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: I've been in Montana, but not Whitefish.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, we bring edge to the show y'all
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: set out there.
• 6:50
  Speaker 4: And yeah, I guess as they say, technology is great
• 6:53
  Speaker 4: when it works.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, good, you're not too far behind. We're talking
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: about we're talking about ten of the most beautiful time.
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: We'll go back track it a little bit for you.
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Have you ever been to Jackson, Wyoming or what do
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: you know about it?
• 7:04
  Speaker 4: No, I've not been to Jackson, Wyoming, but right as
• 7:07
  Speaker 4: I got on I heard Steve Mention something about uh, Montana.
• 7:11
  Speaker 4: I spent a whole year, about a whole year in Billings, Montana,
• 7:15
  Speaker 4: going back and forth. Billings itself is okay, but Billings
• 7:20
  Speaker 4: is about the size of a quarter, and if you
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: go right outside the city limits, it is I mean,
• 7:26
  Speaker 4: coming from northern Virginia to going to sea to out there,
• 7:29
  Speaker 4: to seeing the mountains and the open ranges and the
• 7:32
  Speaker 4: ranches and stuff like that, it's really a sight to
• 7:36
  Speaker 4: be seen. So I think that's I think, you know,
• 7:38
  Speaker 4: Montana is a very pre state.
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I've been to Montana myself. It is a nice place. Waitfish,
• 7:45

  Speaker 4: No, I've never been that far north. I've never been
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: to I've been to many states, but Maine has not
• 7:53
  Speaker 4: been one of them yet. You know, probably on the
• 7:56

• 8:43
  Speaker 2: And uh, you know, whenever we were in that neck
• 8:47

  Speaker 2: to run into him. And of course the one night
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: I wasn't there, some of my friends did.
• 8:56

  Speaker 4: like a dormitory. There's places to work, there is no
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: food all over the place, and there are sleep pods
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: in sections of the thing, and you basically it's like
• 17:27
  Speaker 4: a little do you remember Mark, You remember Mork and
• 17:32
  Speaker 4: Mindy when they showed him coming out of the the
• 17:35
  Speaker 4: egg in the beginning. That's kind of what a sleep
• 17:38
  Speaker 4: pod to me looks like. You know. That's the way
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: I know to describe it.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: Yeah, see, I'm gonna get you Yea, there it is.
• 17:50
  Speaker 4: That's work from work, I'm telling you exactly. There you go.
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: Absolutely Now we just have to sit on our head.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, he was.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: A he was a comic genius. Gone way too soon.
• 18:08
  Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah. We'll get to him one of these days as well,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: can't some talks about the sleep pond.
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: I think it's a brilliant idea because it's probably doesn't
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: cost him that much and to help provide it actually
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: even can provide them shelter and heat during the freezing winter.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: Let's face, Germany is not the warmest culture. It doesn't
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: stay warm all the time, kind of like do you
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: know down here more in Florida. So it's built from
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: sturdy wood and and steel to block cold wind and rain.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: I think it's a great idea.
• 18:49
  Speaker 4: And did I see on there that their solar powered?
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 18:53
  Speaker 4: Okay, so that so that means that they they they
• 18:56
  Speaker 4: don't they won't eat electricity, so they just the panels
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: heat and morning while thumbs up, and then you have
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: it through the night. And it's a better idea in
• 19:06
  Speaker 4: the tenth cities, you know, you see up in some
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: of these states here in the states at least, you know,
• 19:12
  Speaker 4: it's a little neither looking and probably more warmer.
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: Hey listen, and snugly once you get inside there.
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly. If they're solar powered, there's snugly. They're warm,
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: and even though I don't sleep well at all, I'll
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: take it. And that's okay exactly whoever came up with that?
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: Who came up with that?
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: That was me?
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Oh that figures okay, good, you always do anyways, all right,
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: all right, we went something with some of the most
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: beautiful places. Now I'm gonna take you from one extreme
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: to another. Creepy places in America that you should never visit. Okay,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: my goodness. Well here, this one's pretty obvious. Six flags
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: in New Orleans, Louisiana left to right after Hurricane Katrina
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: has been fenced off for a reason. Giant rides creak
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: in the wind, and the silence a deafening Steve.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I uh, that's one place I would not want
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: to go. I've heard that it's it is kind of
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: creepy now because it's all getting the lapis hated and overgrown,
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: and uh, you know, if you're gonna make it a
• 20:19
  Speaker 2: new horror movie, that there, there's your location.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: This list gets more interesting.
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: Go ahead, yeah, Steve, I'll just piggyback all that because
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: I was gonna say no, I've done some of those
• 20:33
  Speaker 6: Halloween haunts at like kings King's Dominion or a bush gardens.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: But if you have the actual effect where wind's blowing
• 20:41
  Speaker 4: and you have trees creaking, and that, I the imagery
• 20:46
  Speaker 4: of that, Scott kind of gave me a little goosebumps.
• 20:49
  Speaker 4: You know, where you have the next Jason running you
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: through the or or actually the top it off to
• 20:55
  Speaker 4: make it even better, it's a clown that's chasing you
• 20:58
  Speaker 4: through the amusing. Yes, like the clown or whatever. Penny Wise, Pennywise,
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: penny Wise, Yeah, exactly, penny Wise, penny Wise chasing you
• 21:08
  Speaker 4: get three New Orleans. Great. Hey, here's our idea for
• 21:13
  Speaker 4: a movie.
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's okay. I'm staying away from the place. The
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: hurricane Hurricane Katrina did a lot. I remember what happened
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: with hurt Katina after the matter meth I went there.
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: That was a nasty storm. It really was. We had
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: it in South Florida, but we were on the front
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: of it. New Orleans got blasted. I saw an FAU
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: game against Memphis over to Superdome. Didn't tell you something
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: that was before Hurricane Katrina, and obviously it wrecked the
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: Superdome really bad. Candy. Some talks about Six Flags. We
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: got plenty more to go on this topic. Go ahead, Candy.
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: So Six Flags originally opened as Jazz Land in two
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: thousand and rebranded as six Flags in two thousand and three,
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: only to be destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in two thousand
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: and five, which is sad because then about it was
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: only five years old. But to your guys' point, I
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: can tell you I I love watching crime shows, and
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: Scott will tell you that there have been numerous episodes
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: that have talked or had whether not necessarily a six Flags,
• 22:19
  Speaker 3: but an amusement park as part of the theme or
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: part of the show. So it does definitely happen.
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's continue. Let's continue on a lot more to go.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: Elk Mount Tennessee, an old resort hidden in the forest,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: cabins left untouched. Someone say they've heard footsteps echo in
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: the trees when no wound's there.
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Steve, Yeah, I've watched Deliverance and no, thank you, Yes, no,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: thank you. I was like, no, no, no, I don't
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: want to go places where there's like these empty cabins
• 22:57
  Speaker 2: for a hundred years. No, no, I can do without that,
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: Thank you very much.
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: Yes, you're welcome. Don't worry. We're not We're not promoting
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: tourism in this second.
• 23:07
  Speaker 4: I watched the Blair Witch Project. No, yeah, I'm good
• 23:12
  Speaker 4: with uh, you know, dark forest cab creaky cabins. That
• 23:19
  Speaker 4: is just not yeah nah, I'll ass Okay, Candy.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: If anybody wants to shoot a crime crime scene there,
• 23:28
  Speaker 3: go right ahead. But I'm not going to live there, all.
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: Right, there you go. Well, here's another place maybe people
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: familiar with me either, Centralia, Pennsylvania. This whole town ha
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: been burning underground for decades of fire started in nineteen
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: sixty two and still going. Streets cracked, smoke rises from
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: the ground, and no one lives here anymore.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Steve, I've heard about that place. I think they did.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: There was like a TV special on that place.
• 23:56
  Speaker 7: Uh.
• 23:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, there's a fire underground that has not gone out
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: like what sixty five years, And yeah, what an eerie
• 24:05
  Speaker 2: place that must be, right, you know, all of a sudden, Yeah,
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: I know Noah lives there, but you know the streak
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: cracks and all the steam comes up. Yeah, and then
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: you'd be waiting for Diablo to come out of that hole. Right,
• 24:22
  Speaker 2: So yeah, Centrali' sorry, I'll take I'll take a pass
• 24:28
  Speaker 2: on that one, too, Ady.
• 24:30
  Speaker 4: In nineteen sixty two, a fire started in a nearby
• 24:33
  Speaker 4: landfill spread into a coal mine beneath the town and
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: the inderground coal seems caught basically caught fire and been
• 24:41
  Speaker 4: burning for decades. Dangerous gases are coming up through the
• 24:45
  Speaker 4: sinkholes in the ground. Thousands once lived there, but Today,
• 24:49
  Speaker 4: only a handful of residents remain and most buildings are demolished,
• 24:52
  Speaker 4: and Trilia is often called a goose down, and it's
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: frequently compared to the setting of the Silent Hill Games.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: Thank you, I will pass. That is a big old
• 25:03
  Speaker 4: pass for me.
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: Okay, Candy.
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: So the fire spread through the mines, causing dangerous carbon
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: monoxide levels and sinkholes, including one that swallowed a twelve
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: year old boy who did actually survive, though, But can
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: you imagine being swallowed by a sinkhole?
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: No? Thank you? No?
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, guess what We're going to one of our
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: favorite states for a different reason. Bana. Banat, Montana, an
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: old Wild West town frozen in time. Wooden buildings stand forwards,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: creek open, but no one walks the streets anymore. Steve,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: Now that's the place that I can hitch my horse, dude, right, yeah,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: because uh, you never know, you know, Clint Eastwood, the
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: high Plan's drift is gonna come peering out out of
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: the mystery, you know.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: Now, Now that's a place I would like to go
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: because I love the history of the wild West, and
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: I think that would be a cool place to hang
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: out at it night.
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta either.
• 26:13
  Speaker 4: I gotta agree with Steve on this Montana. It's kind
• 26:16
  Speaker 4: of open, brighter. It's not you don't have the darkness.
• 26:20
  Speaker 4: It's you don't feel it's it's more open than you know,
• 26:23
  Speaker 4: being stuck in the trees and less and you could
• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I could hitch my horse to the to the west.
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the group we had so far, this one doesn't
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: look that candy right.
• 26:35
  Speaker 3: Yeah. It was the sight of Montana's first major gold
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: rush and famously operated under the terror of a corrupt sheriff.
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: But yeah, I wouldn't. It wouldn't bother me as much
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: as some of the other ones you've mentioned.
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, the Stanley Hotel, by the way, that's a part
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: of Colorado, famously known as the inspiration for Stevens Kingdom Shining,
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: and it's nineteen oh nine resort resilic actually know for
• 27:00
  Speaker 1: go see piano music, phantom children in the Corridors, and
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: explained channel figures, primarily in the infamous Room to seventeen. Nevertheless,
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: this one doesn't look bad. The next one, I don't know.
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: Gild Mid Colorado, an abandoned mining town on a cliffsands
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: poisoned by decades of toxic waste. No one is allowed in,
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: but the ruins are still watching. Steve.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw something from the Smithsonian channel on this
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: exact place and there was so there's so much toxicity
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: there that it's like you can't really even go there.
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean, obviously none of us want to
• 27:41
  Speaker 2: go a place like that, but you know, looking at
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: the pictures of the place, you could see that at
• 27:48
  Speaker 2: one time, you know, probably over one hundred years ago,
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: it was probably a nice looking place.
• 27:56
  Speaker 4: Yeah. No, I you know, anything that says no toxic
• 27:59
  Speaker 4: gas beware, I'm gonna probably drive by and look for
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: the next town this day at and at the Steve point.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: You know, I was just thinking, as you're talking Scott,
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: it it's kind of you're talking about towns that are
• 28:11
  Speaker 4: still kind of festering and boiling and in this whatever
• 28:15
  Speaker 4: ghost town and we're talking about here in America. You know,
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: it's kind of there's a sadness. There's some kind of
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: an underlying sadness to it. But whether I'm going to
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: stay there or not, I'll pass. It's nice to know,
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: but nah, Katty.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: So it's a an abandoned company owned mining ghost town,
• 28:38
  Speaker 3: perched on a six hundred foot cliff above the Eagle
• 28:42
  Speaker 3: River in Eagle County. It was founded in eighteen eighty
• 28:45
  Speaker 3: six during the Silver Boom. It was excavated and closed
• 28:50
  Speaker 3: in nineteen eighty four to eighty five due to heavy metal,
• 28:54
  Speaker 3: soil and groundwater contamination. So if you're bringing your own
• 29:01
  Speaker 3: water and food, I guess it would be okay. But
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: that's about it.
• 29:07
  Speaker 1: Let's continue on. Aren't things interesting? I'm telling you? Oh yeah,
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: I love digging this stuff up. All right, here's an
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: interesting one. Late Shawnee Amusement Park in West Virginia, built
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: on cursed land. Multiple deaths led to it being shut down.
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: The first will still stands with the rides. Haven't moved
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: in here, Steve.
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: I haven't been there, and by the sound of it,
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: that's not a place I want to go to. Yeah.
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: I don't like hearing about haunted you know, amusement parks.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: I don't know it. Just that stuff just gives me
• 29:39
  Speaker 2: the creeps, and uh, you know, and like like edwar
• 29:43
  Speaker 2: was saying, you know, I'm expecting to turn the corner
• 29:47
  Speaker 2: and seeing Pennywise there right, and uh, you know Freddy Krueger,
• 29:52
  Speaker 2: you know, playing cards or something in the corner. No, no,
• 29:57
  Speaker 2: I don't need to go to a haunted amusement park, Yancy,
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: We'll give you a few.
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: Not to go.
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: So so so Scott, if I hear you correctly, we
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: were just talking about spooky, spooky amusement parks, not on
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: cursed ground. But you've taken it up a notch now,
• 30:14
  Speaker 4: so now we've got spooky spooky ones on cursed grounds.
• 30:18
  Speaker 4: So no, no, I think I don't know. It's it's
• 30:21
  Speaker 4: a good point. I'm waiting for penny Wise, Jason, all
• 30:26
  Speaker 4: of them are sitting there, the guy from the scary
• 30:29
  Speaker 4: movie The Halloween, you know, everybody, They're all They're all
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: just sitting there waiting for you. And then Pennywise and
• 30:38
  Speaker 4: all his friends Katy. So.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: It actually opened in nineteen twenty six. It was operated
• 30:49
  Speaker 3: for decades before closing for good in nineteen eighty eight.
• 30:54
  Speaker 3: The property was previously an ancient Native American burial ground
• 31:01
  Speaker 3: and the site of eighteenth century pioneer tragedies. There's Opinions
• 31:07
  Speaker 3: on Reddit are mixed regarding the exact number of tragic
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: accidents during its active years, but multiple accidental guest deaths,
• 31:16
  Speaker 3: including a young girl on a swing set, contributed to
• 31:20
  Speaker 3: its closure and dark reputation.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: All right, we got we got, I've got more for
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: you p I C HDR for sure. Oklahoma declared one
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: of the most toxic towns in America. The ground is unstable,
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: the air is unsaved, and what's left looks like an
• 31:39
  Speaker 1: eerie apocalyptic film.
• 31:45
  Speaker 2: Sounds like Chernobyl and Oklahoma. Yeahh yeah, that's a yeah.
• 31:51
  Speaker 2: Put that on my you know, to do list, right, not.
• 31:57
  Speaker 7: Yeah, right, exactly, yeah, I sait hear and see it
• 32:03
  Speaker 7: has toxic air and ground and so and it's in
• 32:07
  Speaker 7: the middle and Oklahoma's kind of positioned in the middle
• 32:09
  Speaker 7: of the continental US.
• 32:11
  Speaker 4: Oh is this it?
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: Yes?
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: And she dug it up there it is. It looks
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: like yeah, yeah, no, that's yeah.
• 32:23
  Speaker 4: It looks like one of those you know, one of
• 32:25
  Speaker 4: those like you'd watch on the Discovery Channel or History Channel.
• 32:30
  Speaker 4: They're like what happened, It's like what happened here type things,
• 32:34
  Speaker 4: and then you have all the experts looking at well,
• 32:37
  Speaker 4: this looks like a town and the people just fled
• 32:40
  Speaker 4: and and so on. But no, that's now I'll have
• 32:43
  Speaker 4: to I'll be ad with Steve. We'll be driving right
• 32:45
  Speaker 4: by that kind of just looking out a mirror.
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: So it was a once thriving lead and zinc mining
• 32:54
  Speaker 3: town that became a toxic ghost town due to severe
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: environmental contamination from mining waste. It says decades of mining
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: left behind massive piles of toxic chat and contaminated water,
• 33:10
  Speaker 3: causing health problems and prompting the EPA to to clear
• 33:13
  Speaker 3: it a super fun site. A devastating tornado in two
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: thousand and eight accelerated the town's abandonment, leaving behind an
• 33:23
  Speaker 3: eerie landscape of empty foundations and hazardous waste piles.
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: All right, well I got one where the name probably
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: says it all hell goodness? Ready for this one? How
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: about this hell Town, Ohio? People, Hell Tone, Ohio, h
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: l ltows and everybody else else Ohio? A town with
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: so many creepy stories. It got shut down, the government
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: cleared it out, but why locals still don't won't go
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: near it after dark?
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: Steve, And now we know that, Now we know where
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: all the horror movie you know, stars go to, you know,
• 34:05
  Speaker 2: to stay in between shoots. Right, Helltown? Yeah? That, oh yeah,
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: that's just like sure.
• 34:14
  Speaker 4: You would hear things. You would hear things in Helltown,
• 34:16
  Speaker 4: even if things even if there was not making any noise.
• 34:19
  Speaker 4: Your mind would just play so many tricks on you. You
• 34:22
  Speaker 4: hear yourself, and it would really be all psychosomatic. But
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: it would, you know, would be one of those things. Anyway.
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: Now that's a hard pass.
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: Hi can'ty. It's a whole lot more than her attack.
• 34:37
  Speaker 3: There's a picture.
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: Okay, that's why I can't. Let's continue on. Yeah, that's
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: road closed.
• 34:42
  Speaker 4: Yes, yes, yes.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: Left. The empty, decaying houses left behind for decades inspired
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: famous local urban egends and ghost stories. No for me,
• 34:56
  Speaker 3: that's a no no for me either.
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: That's okay, all right, Well here's one that might be
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: somewhat intriguing anyways. The Salton Sea in California, once a
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: booming resort. Now it's a go down with toxic waters
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: and abandoned homes. The air smells like dk and the
• 35:12
  Speaker 1: silence smells financial. But me, if you're looking, maybe you'll

  Speaker 1: get a few seatshells out of it. Anyways, Steve, I've
• 35:20
  Speaker 1: heard of that place.

  Speaker 2: I don't have any desire to go there, and yeah,
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: I heard the smell there is awful.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: Well, we don't worry about it. We don't have to
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: worry about it here because we live and hear the water,
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: but it rules it out for me.
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, and we'll have to make a now that
• 35:39
  Speaker 4: I sure that it stinks, we'll have to make a
• 35:42
  Speaker 4: hard pass on that. And Scott, where you dig all

• 37:33
  Speaker 1: That's okay, you want to defer North That's okay, go ahead,

• 37:44
  Speaker 4: Oh, typhoid Mary was there?
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: What's that.
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: I said? What quarantine hospital is known for is where
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: typhoid Mary spent years in a first quarantine on North
• 38:05
  Speaker 4: Brother Island because she was an asymptomatic carrier of typhoid fever.
• 38:09
  Speaker 4: She died in nineteen thirty eight. She was like the
• 38:14
  Speaker 4: carrier of typhoid Steve, Steve might be frozen. I think
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: Steve's frozen.
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like.
• 38:25
  Speaker 4: No. But North Brother Island the small abandoned island in
• 38:27
  Speaker 4: New York City's East River between the Bronx and Rikers Island. Actually,
• 38:34
  Speaker 4: actually I have heard of this place. Yeah, I like
• 38:39
  Speaker 4: watching it. I heard of it in the sense that
• 38:41
  Speaker 4: I've seen like I was talking about. I like to
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: watch the History Channel and things like that with these
• 38:47
  Speaker 4: where they talk about Alcatraz or they talk about Rikers
• 38:50
  Speaker 4: or they talk you know, they was talking about these
• 38:51
  Speaker 4: kinds of things. But no, I recall hearing something about
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: quarantine hospital and all of this. Yeah, the islands filled
• 39:01
  Speaker 4: with crumbling buildings and reclaim and is being reclaimed by nature. No,
• 39:06
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure. I know. I do not want to
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: go live, you know, between the Bronx and Rikers Islands
• 39:10
  Speaker 4: on this island. I'll pass.
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: Okay, Steve, are you back?
• 39:20
  Speaker 4: Steve looked like he was back just the second, but
• 39:24
  Speaker 4: he's kind of kind of looking with being in the
• 39:26
  Speaker 4: dark and no dark background and a dark shirt, he's
• 39:30
  Speaker 4: kind of looking like a floating head.
• 39:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, we'll have Candy back in a moment. We
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: have to keep this thing going in the sports have changes.
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: Well, check, we'll check this. Oh, can I just say
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: one more thing?
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: M H.
• 39:45
  Speaker 4: North Brother Island is one of the most mysterious places
• 39:48
  Speaker 4: in New York because it sits in plain sight of
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: the city, yet remains largely inaccessible New York City. You know,
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: I just thought that was cool.
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: Anyway, we got to back Steve.
• 40:02
  Speaker 4: Nope, he comes in and out.
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: All right, Steve, Yes, sir Steve, all right, we have
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: you back. Okay, what do you know about North Brother Island?
• 40:16
  Speaker 1: We were able to pick up some of the signals here.
• 40:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know anything about it. That's that's the
• 40:23
  Speaker 2: first I've heard of this. So, yeah, it's interested that
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: close to the city.
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, like I say, is yeah one home one's
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: home to quarantine hospitals. So let's me tell you a
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: quarantine hospital. That's a bad omen. All right, go ahead,
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: Candy real quick, and we'll continue on with a couple
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: more lists. Hey, and I knew you'd enjoy some of
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: these lists because they're off the wall and our whole idea. Oh,
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: make sure everybody learning them.
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, let's teach him. No, I know, I was
• 40:50
  Speaker 4: the crazier than better Scott. That's what drew me to
• 40:52
  Speaker 4: the show.
• 40:53
  Speaker 3: The hospital was established in eighteen eighties to isolate people
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: with smallpox, ty and tuberculosis. It actually did house returning
• 41:04
  Speaker 3: World War Two veterans and then operated as an adolescent
• 41:08
  Speaker 3: drug treatment center until it closed in nineteen sixty three.
• 41:14
  Speaker 3: I thought that was interesting.
• 41:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, it really is interesting.
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: All right, let's go to our future topic of the
• 41:21
  Speaker 1: night and then we'll get back to travel. At a moment,
• 41:23
  Speaker 1: Rock Legend Pont and John pon Jovi opened three community
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: restaurants to serve nutritious meals to the hungary and homeless.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: That's a great gesture by von Jovi. Steve, Yeah, I
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: love this. I heard about this, I think on.
• 41:43
  Speaker 2: Airnet somewhere, but anyway, Yeah, and I love the whole
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: thing where if you know, if you go there and
• 41:52
  Speaker 2: you can pay, you pay, and you know, and you
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: sit at a communal table to you know, interact with
• 42:00
  Speaker 2: everyone there. If you can't pay, then you just work
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: for a couple of hours to pay off your meal,
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: you know, in the kitchen, wash dishes, whatever. I just
• 42:09
  Speaker 2: think it's a great idea. And look, that's a great
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: way to give back. And kudos to John bon Jovi. Yeah,
• 42:18
  Speaker 2: I heard he had too. I didn't realize he had
• 42:20
  Speaker 2: three of these, you know, in in New Jersey. And
• 42:24
  Speaker 2: that's uh, you know, on a time right now where
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: there's so many people struggling, I love this idea and
• 42:33
  Speaker 2: good for him.
• 42:36
  Speaker 4: I got agree with Steve. I'm a big fan of
• 42:38
  Speaker 4: Jon bon Jovi and his music and you know, just
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: hearing about what he does for, you know, the people
• 42:44
  Speaker 4: of this community. He gives back and it's always good
• 42:47
  Speaker 4: to see, you know, those who have a lot give
• 42:52
  Speaker 4: back to those who have little, and it's you know,
• 42:55
  Speaker 4: and he doesn't do it for the fan faire. He's
• 42:57
  Speaker 4: not doing the frame. He's doing it because that's where
• 43:00
  Speaker 4: his heart's in the right place. I think it's great.
• 43:02
  Speaker 4: I think people need to pay attention to that and
• 43:05
  Speaker 4: follow his lead and do what you can to help
• 43:09
  Speaker 4: the fellow man.
• 43:11
  Speaker 3: Kenny John bon Jovie created his Soul Kitchen community restaurants
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: to tackle hunger in a way that preserves dignity. The
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: kitchens don't list prices on the menu. Guests are encouraged
• 43:26
  Speaker 3: to make suggestion, suggested donations, or pay it forward by
• 43:31
  Speaker 3: covering someone else's meal. And it's done in a communal
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: setting because they want people to talk to other people
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: and you know, you never know what might come out
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: of it. But he opened a bunch of those restaurants
• 43:45
  Speaker 3: and I think that's just a wonderful way to help
• 43:49
  Speaker 3: and give back to a community.
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is. I mean, any time a celebrity
• 43:57
  Speaker 1: can go out there and use the same and get
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: something back to the community, that to me is a
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: good thing. All Right, Well, you know what, I'm bomb
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: bardy with town. So we'll just change it up to
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: the presidents for just a moment. The shortest presidency is
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: in American history. Are ready for this? Some of these
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: are If you're a history of buff this you'll definitely
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: like this one. Beginning with let's see, we've got William
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: Henry Hererison lasts it all up thirty one days, gave
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: the longest inaugural speech in history. Pneumonia dyed thirty one
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: days later.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: Steve, Yeah, I remember reading about him when I was kid.
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: He talked for so long in the poor and rain,
• 44:34
  Speaker 2: he got sick and he died less than a month later.
• 44:37
  Speaker 2: And yeah, I mean, that's a horrible way for the
• 44:43
  Speaker 2: country to be run. But stuff happens back then. You
• 44:48
  Speaker 2: know the medical field. I mean today, they'd give him
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: a couple of antibiotics and he'd be back on his feet.
• 44:54
  Speaker 2: But you know, it's the time that they lived in.
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: Exactly. I was just gonna I was going to kind
• 45:00
  Speaker 4: of say similar thing. You know, he went out, gave
• 45:03
  Speaker 4: a speech. You know, you back in those days, they
• 45:06
  Speaker 4: didn't have all the antibiotics and medicines that we do.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: You were risking it, you know, and you know it's
• 45:14
  Speaker 4: never good for the country to lose its leader. Ever,
• 45:18
  Speaker 4: so in thirty one days, I think that was probably
• 45:20
  Speaker 4: a shock to the system. But yeah, they pushed on, you.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Don't want to miss go ahead, Candice.
• 45:31
  Speaker 3: So a couple of little interesting tidbits is that he
• 45:39
  Speaker 3: was the first president to actually die in office. The
• 45:44
  Speaker 3: other thing is he was born in Virginia. He was
• 45:49
  Speaker 3: the last president to be born before the US Declaration
• 45:54
  Speaker 3: of Independence, making him actually a British subject. He's a
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: member of person family of Virginia. He was son of
• 46:02
  Speaker 3: Benjamin Harris, a founding father and the father of John
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: Scott Harrison, the only son and father of two presidents
• 46:10
  Speaker 3: of the United States. His grandson, Benjamin Harrison, became the
• 46:15
  Speaker 3: twenty third president of the United States. Just a couple
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: of interesting little tit bits.
• 46:22
  Speaker 4: Wow, those are interesting.
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: Okay, Well, let me continue on, Katie. I have a
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: lot more presidents, so we appreciate the information. Okay, James A.
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: Garfield two hundred days. Well he got a little bit
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: more out of him. Anyways. March fourth is September nineteenth,
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: eighteen eighty one, shot by an enraged office seeker four
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: months in linger seventy nine days before dying. Steve, Yeah, he.
• 46:47
  Speaker 2: Was one of the first, not the first, but one
• 46:52
  Speaker 2: of the first to be assassinated, although he lived for
• 46:57
  Speaker 2: quite a while there. You know, it was I remember
• 47:03
  Speaker 2: reading about this again. It was a terrible situation. But
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: you know Garfield, you know, he had just what would
• 47:15
  Speaker 2: you say, two hundred days?
• 47:16
  Speaker 1: Two days, that's it.
• 47:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and seventy nine of them were after he was injured,
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: so he really only had four months in office, which
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: is terrible.
• 47:27
  Speaker 1: I didn't much time.
• 47:28
  Speaker 5: That's a true any It just goes to show is
• 47:32
  Speaker 5: that all of the political unrest that can occur within
• 47:36
  Speaker 5: this country is not something the country.
• 47:39
  Speaker 4: It's it's not new to the country. It happened way
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: back it or at our inception. Yeah, two hundred days,
• 47:46
  Speaker 4: at to Steve's point, what he lingered for seventy nine
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: So what's that. That's like one hundred and twenty nine
• 47:53
  Speaker 4: days that he was president. That's a short time, but Unfortunately,
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: you know you're a marked man or woman when you're
• 48:03
  Speaker 4: in those kind of public holes.
• 48:10
  Speaker 3: So he was going to visit his alma mater and
• 48:15
  Speaker 3: give a speech at his college, Williams College. At the time,
• 48:20
  Speaker 3: presidents and their families traveled alone without a secret service detail.
• 48:26
  Speaker 3: And what Garfield didn't know was the disgruntled and unhinged
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: man named Charles Guiteau had been stalking the president for weeks,
• 48:36
  Speaker 3: hoping to carry out a god given command to kill
• 48:40
  Speaker 3: Garfield to make way for his successor, Vice President Chester A.
• 48:45
  Speaker 3: Arthur Garteau had even purchased an ivy handle pistol that
• 48:51
  Speaker 3: he thought would look nice in a museum. When the
• 48:54
  Speaker 3: deed was done, oh wow, shot him twice close range,
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: and the second bullet lodged in the President's pancreas.
• 49:05
  Speaker 1: Ou all right, let's continue on Candy. Zachary Taylor four
• 49:09
  Speaker 1: Inner ninety two days, eighteen forty nine, eighteen fifty War
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: hero President nined of a stomach illness barely a year
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: in his turn wealth stomach illness. They didn't have advanced
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: medicine to get incurred. Was Zachary Taylor done? In Foreigner
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: ninety two days?
• 49:23
  Speaker 2: Steve yeah, and he was another one that was cut short.
• 49:28
  Speaker 2: He was a soldier. You wonder if his military service
• 49:34
  Speaker 2: had something to do with, you know, his stomach issues
• 49:38
  Speaker 2: or whatever. I mean. But again, you know, the back then,
• 49:43
  Speaker 2: you know, we didn't have the kind of medical stuff.
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: We've talked about this quite a bit. He probably would
• 49:53
  Speaker 2: have been cured and no time today bad timing medically.
• 50:01
  Speaker 4: Exactly exactly. You know, it's they were just they were
• 50:05
  Speaker 4: They were susceptible to so many different things that were
• 50:09
  Speaker 4: just that we just don't even think about anymore, because
• 50:14
  Speaker 4: you know, our diets, our vitamins, our antibiotics are everything
• 50:19
  Speaker 4: that we do now to prevent these things from happening.
• 50:22
  Speaker 4: They didn't know about, so, you know, they and I think,
• 50:26
  Speaker 4: you know, Steve, it's funny you said something about his
• 50:28
  Speaker 4: military I was thinking something similar to that. You know,
• 50:32
  Speaker 4: maybe his he was you know, the military service kind
• 50:36
  Speaker 4: of wore his body down and it never had time
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: to fully recuperate. So when it got that virus and
• 50:42
  Speaker 4: so on, or or got sick, it does it was
• 50:45
  Speaker 4: too much for him to handle.
• 50:50
  Speaker 3: A year after taking presidency, he attended Fourth of July
• 50:53
  Speaker 3: celebrations in the nation's capital on a sweltering summer day.
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: To cool down, he drank glass after glass of ice water.
• 51:02
  Speaker 3: When he got back home, he reportedly ate large quantities
• 51:05
  Speaker 3: of cherries and other fruits washed down with iced milk.
• 51:10
  Speaker 3: It's not clear which of these foods or drinks did
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: him in, but he experienced excruciating stomach pain, vomiting, and
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: he was diagnosed with chylereea, a bacterial infection of the
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: small intestine.
• 51:26
  Speaker 1: All right, two more to go. Orange g Hardy eight
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: under in eighty one day nineteen twenty one and nineteen
• 51:32
  Speaker 1: twenty three dropped out of a massive heart attack in
• 51:35
  Speaker 1: a San Francisco hotel room. Well, heart attacks, so what
• 51:38
  Speaker 1: they are? Steve?
• 51:39
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And you know I saw something on the History
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: Channel about him recently, and they said that he had
• 51:48
  Speaker 2: a love child and she was threatening to go public
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: with it. I wonder if that had something to do
• 51:56
  Speaker 2: with with his you know, untimely demise right right exactly.
• 52:05
  Speaker 4: That can definitely put some stress on the heart. But
• 52:07
  Speaker 4: you know, you know, you just again, back then, even then,
• 52:13
  Speaker 4: you know, they didn't have the test we did. And
• 52:16
  Speaker 4: still today, men and women are dropping dead out of
• 52:19
  Speaker 4: the blue from heart attacks that are just you know,
• 52:22
  Speaker 4: my grandfather fifty some years ago dropped dead of a
• 52:27
  Speaker 4: you know, a massive heart attack, and no, it just
• 52:31
  Speaker 4: it's sometimes those kind of thing's happened.
• 52:33
  Speaker 3: So Deny Harding suffered poor health and exhaustion for years,
• 52:40
  Speaker 3: possibly due to an enlarged heart. In the weeks before
• 52:43
  Speaker 3: his death, he had embarked on an ambitious cross country
• 52:47
  Speaker 3: speaking tour, including the first presidential visit to the Alaska territory.
• 52:54
  Speaker 3: He was hit with about a food poisoning and detoured
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: to San Francisco for some bed rest and medical And yes,
• 53:02
  Speaker 3: he died from heart attack, all.
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: Right, and her laugh went on this topic here. Darryl
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: Ford eight hundred ninety five days, nineteen seventy four to
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: seventy seven, actually the only president never elected to the
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: presidency where vice presidency lost Jimmy Carter in nineteen seventy six.
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: This one end with a death.
• 53:18
  Speaker 2: But that was right, yeah, and yeah, you know Ford
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: came around at a rough time for in our history, right,
• 53:28
  Speaker 2: and you know all the stuff with Nixon, and you
• 53:31
  Speaker 2: know agdu had left in disgrace, right, and then you
• 53:36
  Speaker 2: know he Nixon appointed Ford as a vice president and
• 53:40
  Speaker 2: then Nixon left in disgrace. And you know, Ford was
• 53:44
  Speaker 2: in an absolutely no win situation. He had no shot
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: at beating anybody in the election. But you know he
• 53:55
  Speaker 2: lost to Jimmy Carter, which was a story in itself, right, right,
• 54:00
  Speaker 2: So he was he was dealt a tough hand.
• 54:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Jimmy by the way, Gerald Ford is from Michigan.
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: By the way, he in Michigan alone, who also played football.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Go ahead, and no, he just know that.
• 54:12
  Speaker 4: Steve said the best, you know, he was. He was
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: he was handed the rudder of a sinking ship, and
• 54:19
  Speaker 4: it just seemed like he kept going down deeper and
• 54:22
  Speaker 4: deeper and there was no yeah, there was.
• 54:27
  Speaker 2: There was almost assassinated.
• 54:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. Remember there's yeah, yeah, there was no way
• 54:36
  Speaker 4: he was going to be elected, you know, I mean,
• 54:40
  Speaker 4: and it was he was just he did the best
• 54:44
  Speaker 4: we could. He did the best he could with what
• 54:45
  Speaker 4: he had.
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: And I mean he's the only person to serve both
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: vice president and president without being elected. Kind of crazy speak.
• 54:56
  Speaker 1: All right, I got another interesting one for you. Well,
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: we'll get to some total topics. I love these lists
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: sometimes so seven leaders from history destroyed their own nations
• 55:04
  Speaker 1: with one decision. Oh yeah, I love this list. Lomar
• 55:07
  Speaker 1: Kadafi firing protesters Olivia, twenty eleven. Obviously, Gadafi's ordered to
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: shoot protesters sparked a nationwide uprising, foreign intervention, civil war,
• 55:18
  Speaker 1: in the total collapse of Libya into a militia rule
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: in chaos. Steve Vley is more familiar with military stuff
• 55:23
  Speaker 1: as you.
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and yeah, that was an absolute blunder by him.
• 55:32
  Speaker 2: It caused all kinds of uprising everywhere. And you know
• 55:38
  Speaker 2: he was forced out, you know, and he died horribly
• 55:43
  Speaker 2: in a ditch, right. I mean, they they ran him
• 55:46
  Speaker 2: off the road, and you know, they ended up executing him.
• 55:50
  Speaker 2: And you know, he had visions of grandeur when he
• 55:54
  Speaker 2: was in office there earlier, back in the eighties, and
• 56:00
  Speaker 2: you know, he paid the price at that point and
• 56:03
  Speaker 2: then eventually he made another blunder and he paid for
• 56:05
  Speaker 2: with his life.
• 56:06
  Speaker 4: So now, I mean, yeah, you start start shooting protesters,
• 56:14
  Speaker 4: I think there's a good chance that you're gonna they're
• 56:16
  Speaker 4: gonna start rising up against you. And you know, the
• 56:19
  Speaker 4: Libyan people did that, and you know, he messed around.
• 56:23
  Speaker 4: I guess he messed her. He underestimated his own people
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: and what they stood for, and they showed him and
• 56:30
  Speaker 4: basically his thing. Whatever he was attempting to do failed miserably.
• 56:39
  Speaker 3: Andy obviously horrendous decision and paid the price. I'll leave
• 56:48
  Speaker 3: it all right.
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: Next one, Adolf Hitler invading the Soviet Union Germany in
• 56:54
  Speaker 1: nineteen forty one June nineteen forty one. Hitler's invasion of
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: the USSR opened up a second front he couldn't sustain, it,
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: drained resources for Ross Army and ultimately led to Nazi
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: Germany's solo collapsed deve.
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that operation Barbara Rossa. It was a terrible decision,
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: especially the timing. They didn't end up doing it until
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: the end of June, which the original German plan was
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: to do it in early May, because you know, the
• 57:25
  Speaker 2: Russian winter and that you know, if you go back,
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: they reached the outskirts of Moscow in nineteen forty one,
• 57:33
  Speaker 2: but they were not prepared for the winter and thousands
• 57:38
  Speaker 2: of their troops ended up dying from the elements. And
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: you know, it was Invading the Soviet Union was a
• 57:47
  Speaker 2: terrible decision to begin with. But Hitler, you know, because
• 57:52
  Speaker 2: he still had the war going on with England, and
• 57:57
  Speaker 2: you know, by an evaded the Soviet Union, he alienated,
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: you know, a huge army to his to his east.
• 58:09
  Speaker 2: And then you know, to top it off, a couple
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: of months later, he declared war in the United States.
• 58:14
  Speaker 2: So you talk about bad decisions, there was a bunch
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: of them there in nineteen forty.
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: One, no doubt about it.
• 58:21
  Speaker 4: Go ahead, Oh yeah, he just no. It seemed like
• 58:25
  Speaker 4: he was making one after the other, you know, from
• 58:27
  Speaker 4: the winners to declaring war against America. He just no.
• 58:32
  Speaker 4: It shows you what an incompetent or insane man who's
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: given who are giving keys to the castle can do?
• 58:40
  Speaker 4: And why we have you always have to be very
• 58:42
  Speaker 4: careful who you give the keys to.
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: Kaddy just an evil man, evil man, and proved it
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: over and over and over again. I'll leave it at that.
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, well, it's all right. Emperor hero Quito's approval of
• 58:59
  Speaker 1: Pearl Harbor nineteen forty one. We as we said about that, Steve, Yeah.
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: Well he didn't really have much to say. I mean,
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: he was considered divine right, and he was nominally in charge,
• 59:13
  Speaker 2: but he had a small cabinet and they really made
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: all the decisions on really oh yeah yeah, and it
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: was actually you know, tojo who he was. He was
• 59:28
  Speaker 2: really the de facto leader of the government, you know,
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: and here it was more of I mean, the people
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: worshiped him, don't get me wrong, but you know, he
• 59:40
  Speaker 2: was more of a figurehead because he didn't have much
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: to say in the day to day you know, you know,
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: running of the government or the war for that matter.
• 59:53
  Speaker 2: It wasn't until the second atomic bomb that he put
• 59:56
  Speaker 2: his foot down. And because the military guys wanted to
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 2: keep fighting. They they weren't sure that the United States
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: now at the time, they did not know we didn't
• 1:00:09
  Speaker 2: have any more atomic bombs. Uh, but you know, the
• 1:00:14
  Speaker 2: Emperor stood up and said, no, you know, we can't
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: do this any longer. They wanted to keep fighting.
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly. It just goes to show, Yeah, it's just
• 1:00:26
  Speaker 4: now he was he was a figurehead. It shows that
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 4: you need to make sure that you know, that was
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: just a that was a unique situation, and you just
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 4: you gotta be careful who who you surround yourself with
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 4: and make sure you're lying. And the really the craziest
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 4: part I think is what Steve was just pointing out,
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 4: is that after the bombs drop, they still wanted to
• 1:00:48
  Speaker 4: keep going. You know, they wanted to kind of they
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 4: thought they were still you know, kind of remind you
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: of Bob Bagdad. Bob, you know, nothing's happening here. We
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: can we can't get we can go get it. You
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 4: we're still getting it. But no, I mean so yeah,
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 4: so he's probably his own worse enemy, not putting the
• 1:01:08
  Speaker 4: right people on them.
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 3: Candy, Well, I think listening to the wrong people. I mean,
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 3: if there was a group of people trying to help them,
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 3: they did definitely didn't help him. So not good.
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: Look all right, let's continue on. Only a few more
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: of these left, and then we're gonna get to a
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: little bit more relaxing stuff here than this. But we
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: have to get to it. It's all part of the
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: current events stuff. Saddam Husay the invading Kuwait Iraq nineteen
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: ninety eight, that was bad. Oh god, yeah, that was
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: a bad move.
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 2: But you know, at the saint at the time, and
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: again there was an American diplomat that gave him really
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: bad signals really that the United States didn't really care
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: about Kuwait and would not be involved. There was a
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 2: diplomat that gave him that impression that if he invaded
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 2: Kuwait to the United States wasn't going to get involved,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: and you know, Sodam Hussein, I mean he also, I
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: mean he invaded Iran. You know, he wasn't the brightest
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: bulb right in the you know, in the bunch. But yeah,
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 2: the backstory that was, you know, there was an American
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 2: diplomat that said, oh, you know, Kuwait isn't important to us,
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 2: and so he went along with it. And then you know,
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 2: of course he immediately regretted that because then we put
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 2: together a coalition of about thirty different countries that were
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 2: intent on kicking his butt right out of there. And
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 2: that's where he ended up with the highway of debt
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: that you know, they tried to steal everything that they could,
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 2: you know, from Kuwait and trying to get back into Baghdad.
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: And that was a horrible, horrible situation.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 4: Like, yeah, I don't have I think Steve summed it
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 4: up the best. I don't really have much he was
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 4: that was, yeah, that's he was. He listened to the
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 4: wrong guy.
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, Candy.
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 3: He was a dictator who ruled with extreme fears, secret police,
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: and a strong personal cult. Horrible man. I can honestly
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: say that I am proud to know one of the
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 3: gentlemen that captured him. Well, wow, unfortunately he's no longer
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: with us, but yes, wow, oh.
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, let's continue on. I don't have three more
• 1:03:38
  Speaker 1: of these, and then things get a little bit easier. Here.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 1: Julius Caesar crossing the Rubic Cohn Rome forty nine BC.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: I don't think any of us were alive during that
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 1: one army sparked the civil war that ended the Roman
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: Republic and set the stage for empire built on dictatorship? Steve,
• 1:03:55
  Speaker 1: were you alive? Where you have any ancestors in life
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 1: for this one?
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: The right.
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 2: You know, when he crossed the room, he became the
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 2: dictator and that eventually would lead to his downfall. And
• 1:04:09
  Speaker 2: he now he was an absolute brilliant general. Uh and
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 2: uh you know, I I think, you know, when it
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 2: comes to military leaders, he has to be considered one
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: of the top two or three generals of all time.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: But again, once he became the dictator, he alienated, you know,
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 2: the people, and they had the plot against them, and
• 1:04:38
  Speaker 2: you know, it ended up costing him. But I was
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 2: a great admirer of Caesar's military prowess.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: See I got the guy to talk about this stuff.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 4: Go, yeah, no, I I agree. I mean, he was
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 4: a brilliant military mind. But I think there I see
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 4: a theme that's being brought that's kind of coming out here,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 4: is that all these these guys who start out maybe
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 4: good intentions, you know, what have you, but then it
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 4: appears that the power, you know, absolute power per ups
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 4: absolutely and if you look at all of the leaders
• 1:05:14
  Speaker 4: you've just talked about, that's what we that's what we're
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 4: really seeing is that it gets to a point that
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 4: it's just it's it's too much, and then the people
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 4: realize it. I mean, Canopy you his protesters, Caesar, uh,
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: you know, Sodom Hussein, I mean hex Sadam Hussein was
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 4: an ally of the Americans at one points prior to that.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 4: I mean, so it's just it's it's it's interesting this topic, Scott,
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 4: to see the to see the commonality between the centuries
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 4: of great leaders, great minds, you know who kind of
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 4: lost it.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: Thanks mdficiate to coming glhead Candy.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah, he was a brilliant military man. So I'll leave
• 1:05:59
  Speaker 3: it at that short.
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, two more to go. Nicholas the second entering World
• 1:06:03
  Speaker 1: War One Russia nineteen fourteen, obviously bankrupted Russia ignited for
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: mean for revolution and directly caused the fall of the
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 1: three hundred year Romanov dynasties teams that before our time too.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, World War One, the Russians got involved, they suffered
• 1:06:23
  Speaker 2: horribly and you know they the people were starving. Nicholas
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 2: the second then you know, it was actually the Germans
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 2: that put Lennon on the train to Russia to get
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 2: Russia out of the war, and that's when the Bolsheviks
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 2: and you know, took over Russia. Nicholas and his entire
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: family were executed, and then you had seventy years of
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 2: the Soviet Union. So out bad move on his part.
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 4: Again again going back to what I just said, you know,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 4: Nicholas took you know, took it, took it a step
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 4: too far, pushed Bolsheviks to to uprise, and they basically,
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 4: you know, the Bolshetic Revolution takes place, and you know,
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 4: they execute the whole You know that the reign of
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 4: Bizaar is over and there and now we have seventy
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 4: years of communism in the Soviet Union. So you know,
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 4: absolute power per ups absolutely.
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: So okay, So I'm on Nicholas a second, Is that correct, Candy?
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 4: I think right, yes, yeah, you're up, Candy, all.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 1: Right, go ahead, you have you have the you have
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: the final word on that one. That I have one
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: more and then we'll move on.
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: Despite being viewed more positively in recent years, the majority
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: view among historians is that Nicholas was a well intentioned
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 3: yet poor ruler who proved incapable of handling the challenges
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 3: facing his nation.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: Okay, last one. Mikhail Gorbachev us sent nineteen ninety one
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 1: December nineteen ninety one. Gorbachev's sudden resignation and decision to
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: zulve the Soviet Union ended a superpower overnight, triggering economic chaos,
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: civil conflict in the clamps of fifteen Unified Republic.
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 2: Steve, Yeah, and actually, you know, it did cause economic chaos,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 2: but the collapse of the Soviet Union was overdue, and
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: Gorbachev saw the writing on the wall. I mean, they
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 2: could not sustain that their economy with the way they
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: were going. And then this is a good lesson for
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 2: those people who were all screaming for socialism. It wasn't
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 2: a very good system, and they always had shortages of
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 2: food and everything, and eventually it reached the point where
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 2: it collapsed in on itself, and there was a brief
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: period where you know, all these smaller countries that had
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: been part of the Soviet Union all broke away and
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 2: you know, created their own paths. Some of them are
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 2: still reasonably free. Some of the other ones have taken
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 2: other paths. But it was long overdue, and Gobchov, I
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 2: think saw the writing on the wall. He inherited a
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 2: bad situation himself.
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah, really good.
• 1:09:42
  Speaker 4: Any out of everything that we've talked about about these
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 4: these rules, this is probably the most we'll call it
• 1:09:48
  Speaker 4: positive one in the sense that it broke dissolved the
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 4: Soviet Union, and it kind of opened it up. Now
• 1:09:54
  Speaker 4: we go, what thirty five years later, and it's kind
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 4: of a different story. As you know, Putin wants to know,
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 4: kind of reconsolidate everything. You know about ten or fifteen
• 1:10:05
  Speaker 4: years Scott, we may add Putin to that list of
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 4: people we can talk about.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, right exactly.
• 1:10:13
  Speaker 3: Hey, Katy, Yeah, I mean it was inevitable at some point,
• 1:10:19
  Speaker 3: it was gonna happen, because it was already disintegrating before it.
• 1:10:22
  Speaker 3: But yeah, he was kind of the one that made it,
• 1:10:26
  Speaker 3: the precipitous that made it go and fall apart.
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, I'll make this a little bit shorter than the
• 1:10:32
  Speaker 1: other ones's. Mexican President Claudia Scheinbaum announces free universal health
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 1: care for all one hundred and thirty million citizens. So
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 1: she said, in any way, she is not perfect, but
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 1: at the time, so let's just go ahead and compare
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 1: what she's doing to her country, Steve, and what we're
• 1:10:48
  Speaker 1: doing here, if you want to go that far.
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well again, I mean, it's it sounds great, right,
• 1:10:54
  Speaker 2: universal healthcare, but how they going to pay for it?
• 1:10:57
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, exactly.
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 2: Mexico is not in a great shape economically right now,
• 1:11:04
  Speaker 2: and you know, somebody has to pay for all this healthcare.
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: And you know that when people who have universal healthcare,
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 2: it generally isn't very good. I mean, you talk to
• 1:11:16
  Speaker 2: people who've been living in other countries where they have that,
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 2: and generally, I'm not gonna say everywhere, but generally your
• 1:11:25
  Speaker 2: healthcare is not very good. And I mean, it sounds
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 2: good and it's a great idea, you know, but somebody's
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 2: got to foot the bill.
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, that's very true.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 4: Somebody's got to flip the bill. And you know, it's
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 4: it's interesting that you bring this topic up tonight. Scott,
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 4: because I'm an open we're an open enrollment right now,
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 4: and my wife and I and the kids are off
• 1:11:52
  Speaker 4: the policy. And it's just she and I and we
• 1:11:54
  Speaker 4: were just looking at you know, are we going to
• 1:11:56
  Speaker 4: stay or stay with what we have or change? And
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 4: we're gonna change, but my but you know, there's got
• 1:12:04
  Speaker 4: to be something better than what maybe Mexico is doing
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 4: and kind of the current system because for just the
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 4: two of us, we're I'm gonna be paying eight sixty
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 4: a pay a pay period for it, so seventeen US
• 1:12:17
  Speaker 4: a month for insurance that now I go once every
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 4: six months to get you know, the the blood draw,
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 4: make sure everything's still ticking and so on. So we're
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: relatively healthy. But it's just, you know, I don't know,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 4: it's it's just there's got to be something. There's got
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 4: to be something in the middle somewhere that's better. Because
• 1:12:40
  Speaker 4: I agree with I agree with Steve. I know people
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 4: that have been living in other places that you know,
• 1:12:47
  Speaker 4: we'll tell you the same story about social you know,
• 1:12:50
  Speaker 4: you know about health care, and health care for all
• 1:12:53
  Speaker 4: is not always the best.
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 3: Maybe, let's face it. Right now, Mexico had three different
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 3: public health subsystems, and so now they're trying to coordinate
• 1:13:08
  Speaker 3: it all. Beginning in January of twenty twenty seven, health
• 1:13:11
  Speaker 3: services will start to be shared across the three subsystems,
• 1:13:15
  Speaker 3: initially prioritizing emergency care, continuity of treatment, access to services
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 3: regardless of insurance affiliation. During the first phase, they'll be
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 3: able to receive services such as mammograms, biopsies, breast cancer treatment,
• 1:13:32
  Speaker 3: and a health care facility closest to their home. The
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 3: second half of twenty twenty seven, they're going to do
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 3: even more, and then in twenty twenty eight they're going
• 1:13:41
  Speaker 3: to add all the essential medicines and stuff like that.
• 1:13:44
  Speaker 3: What I'll say about healthcare insurance, it's expensive and if
• 1:13:52
  Speaker 3: you go on COBRA, you're paying a lot. You know,
• 1:13:59
  Speaker 3: it surprises me what some insurances pay for and what
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 3: insurances don't pay for. You're going to make up the
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 3: cost someplace, whether it be in your deductible because yeah,
• 1:14:11
  Speaker 3: we can have universal health care, but your deductibleble is
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 3: going to be oh, twenty five hundred or five thousand.
• 1:14:18
  Speaker 3: So yeah, you don't have to pay for health insurance
• 1:14:21
  Speaker 3: for the big things, but all the small little things
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 3: will add up to that deductible.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 3: It depends on your coverage, on the insurance that you have.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 3: But I will remember, Scott at one point when they
• 1:14:36
  Speaker 3: first introduced Obamacare, when you used it before we were together,
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 3: and it saved you because otherwise you would have gone
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: bankrupt because you had some health expenses at that point
• 1:14:48
  Speaker 3: that had you not had that, I don't know where
• 1:14:53
  Speaker 3: you would have been financially.
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 1: Oh I've been dead, period. That's all you need to know. Okay,
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. There's a much easier topic that
• 1:15:01
  Speaker 1: we can all live with. Country where people worked a
• 1:15:03
  Speaker 1: few with hours. Why didn't you bring this up at
• 1:15:06
  Speaker 1: the beginning? We ate creepy stuff? Why did you bring
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 1: this up? And we didn't know about these Preza downs?
• 1:15:10
  Speaker 1: No matter, Neverland's twenty nine point eight hours per week.
• 1:15:13
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna list them off. Okay, not too bad, never
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 1: Land twenty nine point eight hours. I like, though, there,
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 1: let's just try my bice and don't go someplace shop, Okay. Denmark,
• 1:15:20
  Speaker 1: We're going there right, Candy thirty two and a half
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 1: hours per week, great stuff in Germany thirty four point
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 1: two hours per week, under forty course. Norway thirty three
• 1:15:29
  Speaker 1: point seven and I'm where Norway. Gotta have that out
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 1: here and advertise in Norway. There, I go. Love Norway.
• 1:15:36
  Speaker 1: My brother been there. I that's even another reason, okay,
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 1: although he's been more places. And that's thee Switzerland thirty
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 1: four point six hours per week, my goodness. Okay, yeah,
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 1: that's off to Norway. Austria thirty three point eight hours
• 1:15:49
  Speaker 1: per week, Sweden thirty four point eight hours per week,
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 1: France thirty five hours per week. And that's it, all right, Steve,
• 1:15:58
  Speaker 1: how do you like them apples?
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 4: Well?
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 2: See I got my floaky shipyard shirt from Norway on
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 2: right now, so there you go.
• 1:16:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, this is great. I should have stirred it
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 1: off with this, but now I hate to get everybody
• 1:16:11
  Speaker 1: to the show.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 2: But you know, and I like that. I mean the
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 2: Netherlands twenty nine and a half hours a week. That's
• 1:16:18
  Speaker 2: a short that's not even a four day week.
• 1:16:21
  Speaker 4: That's like no, yeah, yeah, that's that's yeah.
• 1:16:31
  Speaker 2: I'm all for that. I mean, you know, if you
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 2: can make it work and and survive on that, I'm
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 2: all for it.
• 1:16:41
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 1: I love Norway. Now that's another reason why I love it.
• 1:16:44
  Speaker 1: To give you a twenty nine point eight hour. Reason
• 1:16:47
  Speaker 1: why I like that it's a good three digit number
• 1:16:49
  Speaker 1: of y lottery players. But not that I know, but
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 1: it's a good number, all right, go ahead.
• 1:16:53
  Speaker 4: Ed, Yeah, I mean it's great, but it's great, but
• 1:16:58
  Speaker 4: not not. But it's it's interesting because you know, we're
• 1:17:02
  Speaker 4: all the Americans. It's interesting. I've worked with a lot
• 1:17:06
  Speaker 4: of Europeans, yeah, a lot of Germans especially, and the Germans,
• 1:17:11
  Speaker 4: I know, they work forty hours. They work hard when
• 1:17:14
  Speaker 4: they work. However, they get a lot of vacation time.
• 1:17:17
  Speaker 4: They will go and they'll take their PTO and they
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 4: will disappear. You know how, I don't know. Like myself,
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 4: I'll have my laptop with me when I'm on vacation
• 1:17:29
  Speaker 4: in case something arises, or I want to stay ahead
• 1:17:31
  Speaker 4: of email, or you know, they don't even do that.
• 1:17:34
  Speaker 4: They go off the grid and so on. And I
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 4: think that's I think that's somewhere where we need to
• 1:17:39
  Speaker 4: start as a society here in America to do and
• 1:17:42
  Speaker 4: then slowly work into the shorter week, because I think
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 4: this country works. Wait, as one who is guilty of
• 1:17:50
  Speaker 4: it works way too hard, Candy.
• 1:17:55
  Speaker 3: To piggyback from you, Ed, I think part of we
• 1:18:00
  Speaker 3: all work till a certain age. And I think if
• 1:18:03
  Speaker 3: you work so many hours, you want to get to
• 1:18:06
  Speaker 3: a point where you can retire and still enjoy life
• 1:18:10
  Speaker 3: and not have all kinds of health issues and problem
• 1:18:14
  Speaker 3: And so I think forty hours is not the right
• 1:18:19
  Speaker 3: for me. But that's what I mean. I'm working forty plus.
• 1:18:23
  Speaker 4: So yeah, but I handle, you.
• 1:18:26
  Speaker 3: Know, thirty seven, thirty four, twenty nine point five, of
• 1:18:31
  Speaker 3: course I could. But like Steve, like and you had
• 1:18:36
  Speaker 3: said a lot of places have a lot more vacation.
• 1:18:40
  Speaker 4: Yes, you know.
• 1:18:44
  Speaker 3: I I can see it because I think sometimes we
• 1:18:49
  Speaker 3: put too much stress on it, and I don't think
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 3: we realize how much that really affects our health until
• 1:18:56
  Speaker 3: we don't have our health, and then we're forced to.
• 1:19:00
  Speaker 1: Okay, let's wrap it. Fire these that next to you,
• 1:19:02
  Speaker 1: because they're pretty good ones. I'm gonna try to get
• 1:19:04
  Speaker 1: as minion as I can. Okay, get this. Florida Highway
• 1:19:07
  Speaker 1: Patrol ented a seed Corvette cornbe cb stea rate to
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 1: its fleet. The stock scene rate is one hundred and
• 1:19:15
  Speaker 1: ninety four mile an hour time. Now that's my kind
• 1:19:17
  Speaker 1: of vehicle. Florida Highway Patrol actually added this one, Oh
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 1: my god, one hundred ninety four. I'm hey, I need
• 1:19:24
  Speaker 1: to now I know where I need to really go
• 1:19:26
  Speaker 1: to work. One hundred ninety four miles an hour, need
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 1: for s feet, I'm going there, Clan Steve.
• 1:19:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you need it on I seventy five. I mean
• 1:19:34
  Speaker 2: because hitting every meet. There's stories in the paper around
• 1:19:39
  Speaker 2: here that where people are just going over one hundred
• 1:19:45
  Speaker 2: miles an hour on seventy five or eighty two, which
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 2: runs right by Bolt Myers, right, and it's like the cops.
• 1:19:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, you know, now, they're not supposed to chase them,
• 1:19:58
  Speaker 2: So I'm surprised that they they put a corvette in there.
• 1:20:01
  Speaker 2: But I guess you can get from point A to
• 1:20:03
  Speaker 2: point B in quite a hurry.
• 1:20:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, real clear, welcome to hot Rod Rate. Say, Bunny,

• 1:20:13
  Speaker 1: good ones out there there, right, go ahead, Eddie.

• 1:20:23
  Speaker 4: want to have that car. You know, it's gonna be

• 1:20:27
  Speaker 4: we'll do doubles shits, we'll do the just to be
• 1:20:30
  Speaker 4: the cool cop in the car. But no, that I've
• 1:20:33
  Speaker 4: heard what Steve's are. You know, there's a big push
• 1:20:37
  Speaker 4: to have them not do the chases anymore and so on.
• 1:20:40
  Speaker 4: So I don't know if it'll be good or not.
• 1:20:43
  Speaker 4: But hey, it might be cool just to drive around
• 1:20:45
  Speaker 4: town big candy.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 3: I mean, I can see to a certain extent. But
• 1:20:52
  Speaker 3: I don't know if many of you know this. If
• 1:20:54
  Speaker 3: you are caught in the state of Florida exceeding the
• 1:20:58
  Speaker 3: speed limit by fifty miles or more, or you're operating
• 1:21:02

• 1:22:08
  Speaker 4: some of the opulence that would be you would see there,
