Latest / Wicked Radio with Bill Adams / Wicked Radio 8-11: No More Mr. Nice Trump On Crime, Fake Nurses, & RIP Jim Lovell
Transcript
- 0:07Speaker 1: No more mister nice Trump, because he was so nice
- 0:10Speaker 1: before the criminals in DC. Right, there's a big press
- 0:14Speaker 1: conference we're expecting today about cracking down on crime in DC.
- 0:18Speaker 1: You and I we talked about this a lot last week.
- 0:20Speaker 1: It's coming. We knew what was coming that. I think
- 0:23Speaker 1: it starts today. It starts in the nation's capital. But
- 0:25Speaker 1: here's how it affects everybody. I think it's coming to
- 0:29Speaker 1: every city. Eventually, they're going to crack down on crime,
- 0:32Speaker 1: and they don't care about who opposes it. Now watch
- 0:36Speaker 1: out to see who opposes actually cracking down on crime.
- 0:38Speaker 1: He's a dictator. We'd told you he was good because
- 0:41Speaker 1: that's coming to well, we'll try to preview what's in
- 0:42Speaker 1: the press conference a little bit later on. Also, we
- 0:45Speaker 1: have an absolutely horrific UCLA student in her graduation speech
- 0:50Speaker 1: who and you're gonna have to excuse the language on
- 0:52Speaker 1: this one. I couldn't edit it out. It was just impossible.
- 0:54Speaker 1: And it's part of the story. Actually, But if you
- 0:56Speaker 1: feel bad and it's disturbed you, and there was a
- 0:58Speaker 1: lot of consternation about this story, this girl speech, it's
- 1:01Speaker 1: okay because you shouldn't feel sorry for these colleges when
- 1:04Speaker 1: they lose funding in the future and apparently college admissions
- 1:08Speaker 1: are down. They did this to themselves. That's what you
- 1:10Speaker 1: have to keep remembering. We have an unbelievable story out
- 1:13Speaker 1: of Florida, Flagler County specifically about a fake nurse who
- 1:15Speaker 1: got busted. And I don't have any numbers whatsoever to
- 1:18Speaker 1: prove this, but my theory is I would be willing
- 1:20Speaker 1: to bet you there are fake nurses and fake medical
- 1:24Speaker 1: professionals throughout the entire country. They happen to bust this lady.
- 1:27Speaker 1: Where do you hear how many patients she's treated in
- 1:30Speaker 1: the past though, And it's a good reminder, and here's
- 1:32Speaker 1: the takeaway for all of us to ask questions, become
- 1:35Speaker 1: good consumers again when you go into a medical facility.
- 1:38Speaker 1: And we'll wrap it up with from that loser to
- 1:43Speaker 1: an absolute winner and a hero we lost Jim Lovell. Yeah,
- 1:46Speaker 1: of course from Apollo thirteen to the movie, and a
- 1:48Speaker 1: lot of us learn about Jim Lovell and that story
- 1:50Speaker 1: through that movie. Who's ninety seven years old? What an
- 1:54Speaker 1: absolute complete hero that guy was. Anyway, a lot to
- 1:58Speaker 1: talk about. Exs for being here, Appreciate you always, Thanks
- 2:00Speaker 1: for finding the wicked Radio. I can talk Wicked Radio
- 2:04Speaker 1: livestream all part of Wicked Wisdom with Bill Adams. Thanks
- 2:06Speaker 1: for being here on the audio podcast. If you're listening
- 2:08Speaker 1: later on or you're watching the live stream replay later
- 2:12Speaker 1: on and you already know what this press conference is
- 2:14Speaker 1: all about, well you're ahead of the game. But here
- 2:18Speaker 1: we go. This is the announcement that came out over
- 2:20Speaker 1: the weekend, and he actually did two posts on truth
- 2:23Speaker 1: Social Trump did about what's happening about cracking down on
- 2:27Speaker 1: DC crime. We're having a news conference tomorrow, meaning today
- 2:30Speaker 1: in the White House. They're calling it for ten am.
- 2:32Speaker 1: Then you know how these things go, that means probably
- 2:34Speaker 1: ten thirty. They're never on time, but maybe this one
- 2:37Speaker 1: will be. It's all about making Washington, DC safe, but
- 2:41Speaker 1: it's not just about the nation's capital symbolically. It has
- 2:44Speaker 1: to start there, right, been a lot of talk about
- 2:47Speaker 1: that going to bring the National Guard in. It's already
- 2:49Speaker 1: been in a lot of news stories about moving the
- 2:51Speaker 1: homeless out. That's already started the pushback on that. But
- 2:55Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be something more. And I would
- 2:57Speaker 1: not be surprised if Trump at this press conference also
- 3:02Speaker 1: brings out very close friend to his Another one we
- 3:05Speaker 1: talked about on Friday, Janine Piro. You might not judge
- 3:10Speaker 1: Janine from her Fox days, you know, as a contributor.
- 3:13Speaker 1: I think she was on the five on Guttfield couple
- 3:15Speaker 1: of times. But she's also now more importantly, the US
- 3:18Speaker 1: Attorney for the District of Columbia, and she's talked about
- 3:22Speaker 1: this multiple times, over and over and over again, about
- 3:25Speaker 1: cracking down on crime. Little example, this was just from
- 3:28Speaker 1: last Hi.
- 3:29Speaker 2: Everyone, I'm Janeine Piro, the US Attorney in DC, and
- 3:33Speaker 2: we are prioritizing the President's executive order to make DC
- 3:38Speaker 2: safe and beautiful. And as part of that initiative, what
- 3:42Speaker 2: my office has done in recent weeks is we are
- 3:45Speaker 2: now trying to identify those illegals who are currently burrowed
- 3:50Speaker 2: in our criminal justice system.
- 3:53Speaker 1: So that's all part of it too, obviously, you know,
- 3:55Speaker 1: the immigration issue, and Ice is all part of his name.
- 3:58Speaker 1: I wouldn't be surprised you'll know this later on because
- 4:01Speaker 1: maybe you're watching this or listening to it after the
- 4:03Speaker 1: press conference. Maybe Tom Homan, director of Vice will be there,
- 4:07Speaker 1: maybe Homeland Security people will be there. I don't know,
- 4:10Speaker 1: but this whole thing starts this is why it's so
- 4:13Speaker 1: important these stories that get out there big balls. Remember
- 4:19Speaker 1: the kid from doge about beaten to a pulp trying
- 4:21Speaker 1: to save his girlfriend, you know, is there about to
- 4:23Speaker 1: be carjacked, got beaten by ten to twelve thugs in
- 4:26Speaker 1: the street of Washington, DC. That was disturbing, but it
- 4:29Speaker 1: has an effect. When leadership is strong, it does. Those
- 4:33Speaker 1: stories matter. That's why people like you and me and
- 4:35Speaker 1: people in casual conversation were so outraged by it. The
- 4:38Speaker 1: Cincinnati couple, they were beaten close to death by a
- 4:42Speaker 1: mob of twenty people. These stories matter because we've reached
- 4:45Speaker 1: a point. You can feel it, you know it too,
- 4:48Speaker 1: just talking to your friends and family, or people at
- 4:50Speaker 1: work friends, you hear barroom conversations, or you overhear people
- 4:54Speaker 1: talking about it at restaurants. People have had enough. They've
- 4:57Speaker 1: just there is I don't think there's ever been so
- 5:01Speaker 1: much temperament for pushback against crime in this country. That's why. Now,
- 5:05Speaker 1: maybe maybe you don't even like Trump. I have no idea.
- 5:08Speaker 1: You don't like this administration. You like what they're doing
- 5:10Speaker 1: with deportation, I don't know, but one thing's undeniable. It
- 5:13Speaker 1: gets a pretty good sense of the pulse of the
- 5:16Speaker 1: nation of what's going on. This is part of the pushback.
- 5:18Speaker 1: This is where it starts. Whatever the hell they're going
- 5:20Speaker 1: to talk about with this press conference today, it's gonna
- 5:22Speaker 1: be about cracking down on crime. And I think they're
- 5:25Speaker 1: doing it. I think they're doing it now because they
- 5:28Speaker 1: have the support of the country behind them, Because I
- 5:30Speaker 1: I hear it myself. How many people say, I don't
- 5:32Speaker 1: care what you have to do. I don't care what
- 5:34Speaker 1: you have to do make these cities safer. I hear
- 5:37Speaker 1: that all the time. It's like people that never would
- 5:40Speaker 1: have been in favor of bringing in the national Guard before. Oh,
- 5:43Speaker 1: I hear it all the time. Now you probably do too,
- 5:45Speaker 1: Maybe your mind was changed. I don't care what the
- 5:47Speaker 1: hell they have to do, bringing the national Guard crack down.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Enough of this cities are overrun with crime. So symbolically,
- 5:54Speaker 1: like she said that, it starts in Washington, DC. You
- 5:58Speaker 1: know they're big on the symbolism. So you have to
- 6:00Speaker 1: start there, and then if this program works, you sent
- 6:03Speaker 1: it to the other cities and we make this country saver.
- 6:05Speaker 1: It has to happen. So we'll see, I don't know,
- 6:08Speaker 1: we'll see how it goes all right, this is an
- 6:10Speaker 1: unbelievable story that started last week, and then the details
- 6:13Speaker 1: started trickling in, and then the police cam video of
- 6:16Speaker 1: the rest came in, and then we found out how
- 6:18Speaker 1: many patients she had actually treated as a fake nurse.
- 6:22Speaker 1: I'm talking about this lady Flagler County in Florida. This
- 6:26Speaker 1: lady got arrested for treating over again, remember this, as
- 6:29Speaker 1: a fake nurse, over four thousand patients. Her name is
- 6:35Speaker 1: Autumn Bardisa, and she was arrested this past week. I
- 6:38Speaker 1: think it happened on Tuesday. She pretended to be a
- 6:41Speaker 1: registered nurse. Actually she treated four thousand, eight four thousand,
- 6:45Speaker 1: eight hundred and eighty six individuals at a local hospital
- 6:48Speaker 1: there in Flagler County, Florida. It's the timeline that gets
- 6:52Speaker 1: me July twenty three until she was fired on January
- 6:56Speaker 1: twenty second, and then they came back and arrested her. Now,
- 6:58Speaker 1: the look of you, when you do that, you're fired
- 7:01Speaker 1: for that. You have to figure you're gonna be arrested, right,
- 7:05Speaker 1: wouldn't you figure that they'd come after anybody that actually
- 7:08Speaker 1: did this to make an example of her. This is how,
- 7:10Speaker 1: this is how the arrest went down. This is when
- 7:12Speaker 1: the news went viral.
- 7:14Speaker 2: Hey, there are you, Autumn. Can you step out of
- 7:17Speaker 2: the car for me please? If they turned around.
- 7:22Speaker 1: With your hands, let's oh, I don't understand what's going on.
- 7:28Speaker 1: You're gonna arrest me. It's a fake nurse, Okay. The
- 7:31Speaker 1: statement from the sheriff in flag La County, Florida, Rick Staley,
- 7:34Speaker 1: is this is one of the most disturbing cases of
- 7:36Speaker 1: medical fraud we've ever investigated. This leads us to this
- 7:41Speaker 1: and I don't have any numbers. I can't quantify this.
- 7:43Speaker 1: I have no idea. It's just a complete guesswork on
- 7:46Speaker 1: my part. But I'd be willing to guess this is
- 7:51Speaker 1: happening probably in every metro area in the country. Flagla
- 7:57Speaker 1: County isn't really that that populated. But still, if it's
- 7:59Speaker 1: happening there, you know what's happening everywhere else. Wouldn't you
- 8:02Speaker 1: be willing? Would it shock you if all of a
- 8:04Speaker 1: sudden they came out with some kind of a news
- 8:06Speaker 1: story tomorrow or today saying that they've arrested hundreds or
- 8:09Speaker 1: thousands of people pretending to be medical professionals, nurses assistance. God,
- 8:17Speaker 1: we know we've had stories of fake doctors out there before,
- 8:19Speaker 1: but there were few and far between. Would it shocked
- 8:22Speaker 1: you to find that out? What shocked me about this
- 8:25Speaker 1: story was some of the reaction from some people. It
- 8:27Speaker 1: was weird to me, just odd because I immediately went
- 8:30Speaker 1: to think about this as a patient. It was weird
- 8:32Speaker 1: how many comments I saw online of people saying, well,
- 8:35Speaker 1: you know, it's really expensive to become to become a nurse,
- 8:39Speaker 1: and you know, maybe she just couldn't afford that. And
- 8:42Speaker 1: there's a lot of sympathy for this lady, like way
- 8:45Speaker 1: more than I expected. I'm not going that far. I
- 8:47Speaker 1: have sympathy for the patient she treated. One point that
- 8:51Speaker 1: was made online was there's not a lot of complaints
- 8:53Speaker 1: about this lady, which is fascinating. Maybe she knew her stuff.
- 8:57Speaker 1: Maybe she actually was a good fake nurse. I don't know,
- 9:01Speaker 1: but she was a fake nurse. And that's the bottom line.
- 9:04Speaker 1: Here's my point of bringing it up again. It's a
- 9:07Speaker 1: good reminder, and here's the takeaway. Here's what you can
- 9:09Speaker 1: do about that, because it is scary, right when you
- 9:11Speaker 1: start to think about not only medical mistakes. Right, that's
- 9:14Speaker 1: always been a growing and very serious issue in our
- 9:18Speaker 1: medical system, and God knows. Our medical system and insurance
- 9:21Speaker 1: system is just a mess. But if it scares the
- 9:25Speaker 1: life out of you, don't feel bad about the fact
- 9:28Speaker 1: that there may be fake medical professionals out there, and
- 9:30Speaker 1: maybe maybe you've been treated by one. I don't know
- 9:33Speaker 1: who the heck knows. Again, I'm just going on guesswork.
- 9:36Speaker 1: My guess is this happens way more than you think.
- 9:39Speaker 1: It's okay, because here's what you can do. It's a
- 9:41Speaker 1: great reminder take a hold of this information and don't
- 9:45Speaker 1: It's a great reminder to feel good about being a
- 9:48Speaker 1: good consumer when it comes to medical advice and medical situations. Again,
- 9:53Speaker 1: I don't know what it is. I've never understood this.
- 9:56Speaker 1: I've never gotten it. How all of a sudden we
- 10:00Speaker 1: we get like complacent and afraid to talk to doctors
- 10:03Speaker 1: in medical situations. It's like you walk in those front
- 10:06Speaker 1: doors of a medical facility and all of a sudden
- 10:08Speaker 1: you're like powerless. You feel like you can't ask questions,
- 10:11Speaker 1: you can't advocate for yourself, you can't advocate for another bird.
- 10:14Speaker 1: I'm telling you that's a bunch of crap. Throw that
- 10:17Speaker 1: out the window. And this is what changed my mindset
- 10:20Speaker 1: on this years ago. When you start to think of doctors,
- 10:23Speaker 1: God love them. You know, there's a lot of great
- 10:24Speaker 1: most I would say a majority of doctors in the
- 10:27Speaker 1: country are just fantastic. They are, they do great work.
- 10:29Speaker 1: We need them, we love them. Egos, yeah, most of them.
- 10:33Speaker 1: But would you want a non confident doctor anyway? Look
- 10:36Speaker 1: at doctors as mechanics really seriously. I mean that, And
- 10:40Speaker 1: now it's not stupid at first, but think of it
- 10:42Speaker 1: from a consumer perspective, right, don't be intimidated any medical professional, nurse, assistant, doctor, surgeon,
- 10:51Speaker 1: don't be afraid to ask questions like you would of
- 10:54Speaker 1: like a car mechanic. Like if a car mechanic was
- 10:58Speaker 1: going to do a procedure on your car, you'd ask
- 10:59Speaker 1: all kind of questions, Right, what's necessary, what's not? What
- 11:01Speaker 1: are you going to do? What's the timeline, what's it
- 11:04Speaker 1: going to cost me? Why in the medical professional are
- 11:07Speaker 1: we afraid to ask questions? Not only that the lead
- 11:11Speaker 1: in here with our story of the fake nurse, why
- 11:14Speaker 1: can't you ask about the credentials of somebody? Like we
- 11:16Speaker 1: all walk in what's the typical doctor's office, even just
- 11:20Speaker 1: a wellness visit? What's the typical scene walk in there.
- 11:23Speaker 1: It's a cold, generic room. You talking to the doctor,
- 11:25Speaker 1: he doesn't really look at you, and they're just feeling
- 11:27Speaker 1: out a form and you look on the wall, just
- 11:30Speaker 1: like diplomas on there. Do you ever look at the
- 11:32Speaker 1: diploma and like really examine it or to see where
- 11:36Speaker 1: they went to school where the medical license is? No,
- 11:40Speaker 1: you just kind of assume it's there. How many of
- 11:41Speaker 1: those are fake? Truly? I mean, honestly, why can't you,
- 11:45Speaker 1: as a consumer ask the questions? You should always have
- 11:48Speaker 1: the right to ask right there in his face, the
- 11:50Speaker 1: doctor that's going to be treating you what his credentials are. Well,
- 11:54Speaker 1: he might be offended. I don't give a damn who
- 11:56Speaker 1: the hell cares is if he's offended or not. Ask
- 11:59Speaker 1: what they're credentials are, what they're gonna do, and advocate
- 12:02Speaker 1: for yourself. And this fake nurse story is a great
- 12:04Speaker 1: example of that. Well, she would have just said that
- 12:06Speaker 1: she went to nursing school or whatever. Okay, fine, But
- 12:08Speaker 1: if enough people ask, she would have been exposed a
- 12:11Speaker 1: lot sooner than this. The whole thing is a reminder
- 12:14Speaker 1: that you can't be intimidated as a patient. You have
- 12:17Speaker 1: to advocate for yourself and God forbid if you go
- 12:19Speaker 1: into don't ever go into any kind of a medical
- 12:21Speaker 1: procedure or a surgery alone where no one can advocate
- 12:24Speaker 1: for you. Find somebody, even if you don't have any family,
- 12:27Speaker 1: a neighbor, somebody to advocate for you, because you have
- 12:29Speaker 1: to with this medical system we have, and God knows
- 12:31Speaker 1: the insurance system. So you may be freaked out by
- 12:34Speaker 1: the fake nurse story. I certainly was, but it's okay.
- 12:37Speaker 1: It's a good reminder that you get it. You have
- 12:39Speaker 1: to ask questions. Think of the think of the mechanic example.
- 12:43Speaker 1: I'm telling you you think of them as mechanics, highly
- 12:46Speaker 1: specialized in train mechanics. Sure, but their body mechanics. You'll
- 12:51Speaker 1: start thinking of this situation a lot smarter and much
- 12:55Speaker 1: better as a consumer. All Right, we gotta go to
- 12:58Speaker 1: this story too. A lot more people than I had
- 13:00Speaker 1: expected disturbed by this, and that's okay too. UCLA the
- 13:04Speaker 1: University of California, Los Angeles, highly regarded, highly respected school.
- 13:10Speaker 1: Speaking of medical schools, UCLA medical Schools apparently amazing. Well, Well,
- 13:15Speaker 1: now did you happen to see the story of Jamie Hun?
- 13:19Speaker 1: A Chinese identifies herself. She has an IMDb because she's
- 13:23Speaker 1: an actress, Chinese American actress who got her degree and
- 13:28Speaker 1: communications she must be top of the class because she
- 13:32Speaker 1: was the one that gave a speech or one of
- 13:33Speaker 1: them that gave a speech at UCLA over the weekend
- 13:36Speaker 1: as she's graduating. Now, I can't edit out the F
- 13:41Speaker 1: bomb in this, and I don't think I would anyway.
- 13:44Speaker 1: I'm not saying that she is because it's actually part
- 13:47Speaker 1: of the story. But here's another part of the story.
- 13:49Speaker 1: And there's a lot of people outraged by this, and
- 13:51Speaker 1: I get it, a lot of consternation, and that's okay.
- 13:55Speaker 1: The reason why it's okay to be outraged by this
- 13:57Speaker 1: is the next time you feel sorry for colleges that
- 13:59Speaker 1: are losing admission numbers. And apparently this is another big
- 14:03Speaker 1: story across the country. College admissi numbers are down, especially
- 14:07Speaker 1: of foreign students, foreign born students. Funding's going away. They're
- 14:11Speaker 1: gonna have to fund themselves less taxpayer dollars because we
- 14:14Speaker 1: know what colleges have become, by and far in this country,
- 14:18Speaker 1: just propaganda machines. And they've also done some, especially with
- 14:22Speaker 1: the Columbia and Harvard stories. Just awful, awful examples of
- 14:26Speaker 1: what they've done to some of their Jewish students. We
- 14:27Speaker 1: know that much, right. Next time you want to feel
- 14:30Speaker 1: sorry for colleges, don't. And here's the example. I'll have
- 14:34Speaker 1: some audio here. But you people who are watching this,
- 14:37Speaker 1: there is a visual clue on this. Here's Jamie Honer
- 14:41Speaker 1: and her address where she's going to drop a couple
- 14:43Speaker 1: of F bombs here. Sorry about that, But if you
- 14:45Speaker 1: are watching on this, either on YouTube or an x
- 14:49Speaker 1: or on Facebook, you have to look at the faces
- 14:52Speaker 1: of the college administrators behind her, and the smugness and
- 14:55Speaker 1: the nodding of the head. And because this explains exactly
- 15:00Speaker 1: where your problem is, here's here's what got her all
- 15:02Speaker 1: the attention. Remember she as an actress, so maybe this
- 15:05Speaker 1: is all by design over the weekend Jamie Hahn as
- 15:08Speaker 1: a excuse my language, But to that, I say, fuck
- 15:12Speaker 1: Ice and the Trump administration. Sorry for the F bomb again.
- 15:24Speaker 1: Tried to give you a warning there. Now, you you
- 15:26Speaker 1: people who saw that, or you've seen the video on
- 15:29Speaker 1: your own, did you see the administrator nodding and the
- 15:32Speaker 1: one right behind him, to the right of him with
- 15:36Speaker 1: a smug smile on his face. Yes, yes, so proud
- 15:39Speaker 1: of our students, saying f ice and f the Trump administration.
- 15:43Speaker 1: And there's your problem. Now. I don't care that they
- 15:47Speaker 1: took shots at the Trump administration. I don't care that
- 15:50Speaker 1: they did this. I don't care what they ever. But
- 15:52Speaker 1: can you can you imagine what else she's saying, what
- 15:55Speaker 1: else she's doing? And if you ever want to start
- 15:57Speaker 1: to feel sorry for these colleges losing money, losing admission,
- 16:01Speaker 1: losing a lot of their taxpayer funded don't just remember
- 16:04Speaker 1: that visual image, not as so much of Jamie Hahn,
- 16:08Speaker 1: the girl who said it, but of the administrators behind her,
- 16:12Speaker 1: nodding and encouraging and clapping it on. And yes, if
- 16:15Speaker 1: that is that what we've become. Really, would it have
- 16:18Speaker 1: gotten is much traction if she had said something on
- 16:21Speaker 1: the other side or it didn't politicize it. No, absolutely not,
- 16:24Speaker 1: And that is something to keep in mind. By the way,
- 16:26Speaker 1: she is an actress with an IMDb, So maybe it
- 16:30Speaker 1: was all for our publicity. What better way to get
- 16:32Speaker 1: publicity these days than to say ice after Trump administry?
- 16:36Speaker 1: You know this, but remember the administrators because they're the
- 16:41Speaker 1: ones that encourage this. Just saying, don't feel sorry for
- 16:45Speaker 1: these colleges ever, because that's another cleanup. That's happening, all right?
- 16:48Speaker 1: We go from that zero to an absolute hero. Can
- 16:52Speaker 1: you imagine coming within minutes veering off course and dying
- 16:59Speaker 1: a horrible death into the vastness, vacuum of cold, empty space,
- 17:05Speaker 1: Because that's how close Jim Lovell was to dying, along
- 17:09Speaker 1: with Swaggert and Fred Hayes as well. But still, what
- 17:17Speaker 1: a hero. He went from that in nineteen seventy where
- 17:19Speaker 1: all we all know the story of Apollo thirteen, to
- 17:21Speaker 1: surviving that, becoming a hero with the space program and
- 17:25Speaker 1: the military and living to the year twenty twenty five
- 17:27Speaker 1: in all technological advancements. What an amazing life. And we
- 17:31Speaker 1: all know, of course the Apollo thirteen movie which made
- 17:34Speaker 1: his legend cemented in Stone Forever, But you're a little
- 17:39Speaker 1: piece of that movie that came out in late in
- 17:41Speaker 1: the late nineties. But we lost Jim Lovell at ninety
- 17:44Speaker 1: seven over the weekend. But really, you look at this, guess.
- 17:46Speaker 2: All, between Jack's back Taxes and the Fred.
- 17:49Speaker 1: Hayes Show, I'd say that was a pretty successful broadcast.
- 17:54Speaker 2: Next show off, Thank you very much, Houston.
- 17:58Speaker 1: We got a couple of housekeeping procedures.
- 18:00Speaker 2: M Fourier.
- 18:00Speaker 1: We'd like you to roll right to zero six zero
- 18:03Speaker 1: and all your rights, Roger. The moments before, as we
- 18:07Speaker 1: all know the story now, the disaster happened, there was
- 18:10Speaker 1: something key in there too, and the Apollo thirteen movie
- 18:13Speaker 1: did such a good job of portraying this. There was
- 18:17Speaker 1: such boredom in the press conference from space he was
- 18:19Speaker 1: talking about like nobody saw. And remember this was only
- 18:21Speaker 1: Apollo thirteen, just a couple of missions after Apollo eleven
- 18:25Speaker 1: where the whole world was watching the moon landing, right,
- 18:27Speaker 1: a couple of years later, a year and a half later,
- 18:30Speaker 1: was it maybe just just a year? Nobody was interested anymore.
- 18:36Speaker 1: That's human nature, and that was like in nineteen seventy,
- 18:39Speaker 1: like we're the same now. If you think attention spans,
- 18:41Speaker 1: you know, are so bad now, it's always been that way.
- 18:45Speaker 1: Nobody had any interest in Apollo thirteen at the time
- 18:47Speaker 1: until the accident happened, and that was a worldwide story.
- 18:50Speaker 1: But we all know what happened, as they you know,
- 18:53Speaker 1: Jim Level, being the commander of that vessel, figured it out,
- 18:58Speaker 1: got him fixed up, got him home. A successful failure,
- 19:02Speaker 1: they called it, and he was the guy that actually
- 19:04Speaker 1: got it done and lived to ninety seven years old.
- 19:08Speaker 1: We lost that hero. But man, I tell you what amazing,
- 19:12Speaker 1: What an amazing accomplishment, and what an amazing life. But
- 19:15Speaker 1: this this too, you know, It's like sometimes this is
- 19:19Speaker 1: why we need Hollywood movies portraying this kind of stuff.
- 19:23Speaker 1: Would most of us know the story of Apollo thirteen
- 19:26Speaker 1: if that movie hadn't comeing out, probably not space nuts
- 19:29Speaker 1: historians people are interested in this stuff, would have known,
- 19:32Speaker 1: would have read about, would have seen something on the
- 19:33Speaker 1: History channel about Apollo thirteen, you know, every once in
- 19:36Speaker 1: a while. But the movie popularized it and brought it
- 19:39Speaker 1: to American culture. That's why even though we go all
- 19:42Speaker 1: upset and I love you as you know, making funnel Hollywood,
- 19:47Speaker 1: even though they are annoying sometimes and Tom Hanks can
- 19:49Speaker 1: be an absolute goofball, they brought that story to let life.
- 19:53Speaker 1: That's why this stuff is so important to culture, you know,
- 19:56Speaker 1: introducing more and more people to exactly what happened and
- 19:59Speaker 1: who the heroes are. Because Jim Lovell was always recognized
- 20:02Speaker 1: as a hero, especially so after Apollo thirteen came out.
- 20:06Speaker 1: So that's why movies and culture actually are important. That's
- 20:09Speaker 1: why we talk about him so much. One factoid, though,
- 20:12Speaker 1: I just happened to see about this. Then I didn't
- 20:15Speaker 1: catch till over the weekend. Tom Hanks had admitted, you know,
- 20:18Speaker 1: we all know the line, right, something goes wrong, we
- 20:19Speaker 1: all joke about it. Houston, we have a problem. I
- 20:22Speaker 1: guess that wasn't the correct line, so says Tom Hanks.
- 20:26Speaker 1: He admitted later he says, it's a minute deal detail,
- 20:29Speaker 1: but a detailed Houston, we've had a problem was actually
- 20:33Speaker 1: the actual line in the broadcast. HM misquote. It's all right,
- 20:38Speaker 1: wouldn't be the first time, Rip Jim Level. Thanks for
- 20:41Speaker 1: being a hero if thanks for finding me. I appreciate
- 20:43Speaker 1: you so much. Remember what's the biggest takeaway that whole
- 20:46Speaker 1: medical nurse story, that fake nurse story. US used that
- 20:50Speaker 1: as a reminder to be a consumer when it comes
- 20:52Speaker 1: to your medical affairs. It's really important. It really is. Again,
- 20:55Speaker 1: I can't back it up, but I would be willing
- 20:57Speaker 1: to guess. There's a lot of fake nurses up there,
- 21:00Speaker 1: but a lot of great ones too, so honor them
- 21:02Speaker 1: as well. Thanks for finding the live stream. Appreciate you
- 21:04Speaker 1: as always if you're watching there listening later on on
- 21:06Speaker 1: the replay press follow Always appreciate audio listeners, right now
- 21:10Speaker 1: press download so you know when the new episodes are
