3:16
terrible goes come flocking for iraq war
3:18
in aftermath of nine eleven to flocking for
3:20
saudi golfweek i'll tell you this
3:22
series point humid weather so which is of like
3:24
this golf league is in miniature
3:28
like problem sports what out is because
3:30
it's basically like they
3:32
are testing proposition that
3:34
america and americans can be
3:36
bought the know and
3:38
they're not people proving them right like
3:40
phil mickelson isolation ari fleischer
3:43
you know even like mega
3:45
adjacent trump endorsing jack
3:47
nicklaus jack nicklaus that know
3:50
you could feel like there's people that now stagger
3:52
like you mentioned but i come on
3:54
i mean can't people just watch golf
3:56
without any in also the fact it's golf
3:58
like
4:00
in the , i regret
4:02
yeah yesterday yeah exactly like a among
4:04
us and i tweeted this in our he blocks me
4:06
but hopefully listen to the show but i do think she's
4:08
do is annual nine eleven tweet storm from
4:11
ah the home of one of the
4:13
fifteen saudi hijackers guess
4:15
some that though is that yet as well done as
4:18
well done thanks evil now and then he did
4:20
and twitters consent to discuss be a
4:22
junior guard form of even course of even we both
4:24
like twitter when twitter allows us to be just viciously
4:26
does just viciously and only two hundred prisoner
4:28
i serve as yeah yeah i'm okay
4:30
with it some substance van den
4:32
from australia on twitter ass given
4:35
beebe's information campaign on the original
4:37
iran deal as well as his pressure
4:39
on trump's do you believe we would have different
4:41
outcome of israeli government had changed
4:43
earlier sasson eating what
4:46
if question
4:47
it really is i mean i
4:50
think that the
4:54
it's quite possible that that we would you
4:56
know i
4:58
lived on the other side of information campaigns
5:01
is extended them of it painted
5:03
over the idea who suffered and died extended
5:05
people like spying me and stuff right but
5:09
the reality is that like b b okay
5:12
kind of anti iran deal politics and
5:15
he injected them so aggressively
5:18
into american politics and have people
5:21
mom for called necessarily that he came
5:23
to united states that imitation the republican
5:25
party it's to dress congress
5:27
against iran deal before even happened
5:30
and i think what that did is
5:32
it made the iran deal like
5:35
almost like identity politics issue
5:37
in bit and politics so like
5:40
you know obama care the iran deal
5:42
with agree gonna got wrapped into that toxic
5:45
ball of grievance an us versus them politics
5:48
and that meant that guy like
5:50
trump who like doesn't
5:52
have like well of
5:54
all view of nuclear nonproliferation
5:57
agreements you know you know just a demagogue
6:00
how i did live in his career in his campaign
6:02
and then with babies
6:04
continued backing in the the first couple
6:06
years of his presidency overruled
6:09
all of his advisors
6:11
and pulling out of the deal which didn't even
6:13
really need to do like you know that the
6:15
that but unlike huge political utility
6:18
in that but it was just kind of a
6:20
be such a a bunch of being
6:22
a com the second tier right wing grievances first
6:24
year because of bb and i think if
6:26
you had even like this current government that voices
6:29
opposition to the agreement by planet doesn't
6:31
really do that much to act on it's
6:33
on think it might been different do think
6:35
it's did there's what did them the
6:37
the person with
6:39
most responsible for killing the iran
6:41
deal other than i guess donald trump is
6:45
, be been and know yeah i mean it's fascinating
6:48
circle , find incredibly annoying
6:50
when i read
6:52
all these former israeli generals
6:54
massage guys national security
6:56
officials coming out five years
6:58
later and not i profiles in courage yeah be
7:00
like hey we're wrong iran deal was good yeah i'm
7:03
busy knew that it that i know i needed
7:05
some i'll tell you the the the
7:07
most interesting thing which is it like when
7:09
when
7:10
the when you would sit down with them
7:12
and cause us has his tenure emo
7:15
use memorandum understanding about sturdy
7:17
since we provide the israel like
7:19
after the iran deal they were like we
7:23
that not have to consider the
7:25
oh that's like the likelihood of a potential
7:27
war over nuclear program the run and
7:29
said doug they're working level security
7:32
people were always in a different place
7:34
and bb which made made this
7:36
sets of books have toxic
7:38
performed vicious yeah i mean like you said
7:40
i i i think beebe's lobbying mattered
7:42
to trump but for purely political
7:44
reason yeah i don't they trump knows or cares about policy
7:47
you want do the opposite of whatever obama did and
7:49
that made whatever made his base happy and so
7:51
my bigger plan on this is people that know better
7:54
ah in oppose the jcb i should live
7:56
shame ah i also think like
7:58
tepid democrats in the press
8:00
yeah kind of like yes wouldn't really
8:02
fully supported should really think about the situation
8:05
where and now and whether they want
8:07
have the guts to be for diplomacy and the
8:09
tepid democrats were
8:11
tepid in part cause
8:13
bb being so vocal right
8:15
american politics should be honest about right and
8:19
you know you can you can tied to other
8:21
issues to like that not whether
8:24
you're a republican knows better bad democracy
8:27
or or democrat knows better about
8:29
taking principled stand on something like people
8:33
hanging back is why we're in this mess
8:35
not just on around that on the on other stuff
8:38
mic , twitter asks i feel like pakistan
8:40
was the most discussed foreign policy topic the start
8:42
of the two thousand and tens and we never
8:44
hear about it anymore has situation there
8:46
of last decade gotten better or
8:48
did our attention shift away to other areas
8:51
of world you but i see the had a similar
8:53
thought about this other day this think maybe through time
8:56
of the changeover administration's the
8:58
problem not gone away pakistan has nuclear weapons
9:01
there's terrorists groups running around country they're
9:04
constantly teetering constantly coming
9:07
see craddock government they'd
9:09
still be you in the as mortal enemy and i think
9:11
what obviously has changed is a war in afghanistan
9:14
is now over the the threat
9:16
from extremist groups has metastasized
9:19
and we're not just talking about al qaeda
9:21
in the sata we're talking about isis everywhere
9:25
but yeah mean like pakistan's and some real trouble in
9:27
other dealing with the impact climate
9:29
change there's polio outbreak
9:31
that as reading that just now there's
9:33
a our fragile new
9:36
prime minister and and and recently
9:38
ousted former prime minister was like blaming
9:40
america for for getting pushed
9:42
out so it's
9:45
really the problem hasn't gone away the new
9:47
promising on were young
9:49
using this is nick shapiro on twitter i
9:51
don't know friends and of the pod home ricochet
9:53
i'll ask him but i'm
9:56
a it's it's question cause
9:58
when you'd i came into government like attkisson
10:00
was like harper the list
10:03
do remember that in the the jefferson jackson
10:05
dinner in iowa isn't in two
10:07
thousand seven like this the key is my level language
10:10
yeah yeah they keep look of the our caucus
10:12
joe biden gave a a really long
10:14
speech and this yet like you're supposed to distill
10:16
your message and when speech and it was principally
10:18
that pack a senseless and was about like how
10:20
pakistan is most dangerous place in world
10:23
with your true right like the
10:25
mixer terrorism goes vinci you know and
10:27
i always framing of it it like what he would have
10:29
done on and letters and remember what would have joe
10:31
biden done after nine eleven and
10:33
lot of third person like gods but
10:36
i i digress i mean that
10:38
the point is it was interesting that this
10:40
is it none of those underlying dynamics
10:42
right the presence of terrorist organizations
10:46
like a military intelligence
10:48
kind of deep state for like a better way putting it that
10:51
that undermines democracy support
10:53
for taliban those
10:55
problems didn't get
10:57
solved right and they didn't necessarily
10:59
prove that much i think
11:02
what happened isn't about earlier bomb years
11:04
we years we made a run at that and kind
11:06
of got nowhere in right and
11:08
so what ended up happening is the
11:10
principal interests to the united
11:12
states like this the thing
11:15
that kind of enters into like first
11:17
year you can't mess this up you have to
11:19
spend time on this was that al qaeda
11:21
safe haven in pakistan and
11:24
particularly between kind of two thousand thousand
11:27
and two isn't welcome the first obama term most
11:30
of that hey david was taken
11:32
away and
11:35
then osama bin laden was killed and
11:38
i think a lot of ways if you look at american
11:40
policy after the been lauded operation that
11:43
first tier likes threat to the american
11:46
homeland pretty
11:48
much went away the could
11:50
remember you merely the bombers are bunch of terrorist plots
11:52
were younger ones time square where
11:55
car bomb in from pack pack
11:57
that went away and even
11:59
though the other threats remained on
12:02
nuclear weapons a lack of democracy
12:05
sport the taliban those
12:07
were like hard to dislodge
12:10
and the and
12:12
now that doesn't mean it's any better
12:14
just means that it's it's less in front
12:16
of american politicians
12:18
and media and public as it were not as indirectly
12:20
injured i think that did the shame on all
12:23
the such as with a bunch of other things with tiger recently
12:25
said you afghanistan is a manifestation
12:28
to some extent pakistan's the
12:30
border the taliban show in some ways
12:32
pakistan the dog the
12:34
caught the car in that you know
12:36
now calvin is next door guess that's
12:38
the right dog on twitter
12:40
as session as dog i'm also
12:42
second element in element in your game as his
12:44
last name cities have other countries has
12:46
been more successful in framing renewable energies
12:48
national security issue are necessary
12:51
interests are you are what can u s learn and do
12:53
you think it would help the us clicking
12:55
the transition great question it
12:57
is a great question and i i'm
12:59
thinking about this and there's
13:02
been lot talk over years and on
13:04
work done you know the us and
13:06
u s their been reports issued
13:08
by the pentagon intelligence community
13:10
some which talked about to to make
13:12
the national security case around climate change
13:14
and you hear this in
13:16
europe other places and
13:18
yet i couldn't really think of country
13:21
that has successfully kind
13:24
of frame this issue through
13:26
, people should let us know if
13:28
if we do something i'm missing jarrett been
13:30
spent but i'm not i'm
13:32
not seeing it the reality is
13:34
like all the things we talk about that of national city
13:36
nexus conflicts migration
13:39
political instability instability
13:41
are all gonna grow up exponentially because of
13:44
climate change right and
13:46
and we're going be living in a
13:48
world living which national security is
13:51
shaped by climate change
13:53
and and so i do think that like
13:55
part of this is it's
13:57
often a messaging challenges it's scrabble
14:00
have generals god may kiss on climate change
14:02
reach audiences that don't
14:04
really care about i know environmental issues by talking
14:06
them to this presents that's all true but
14:08
i think the other thing has happened is governments
14:11
interview orient themselves to recognize
14:14
that is nasty challenge and the us government's
14:16
hasn't done that said to see the one example john
14:19
kerry's special envoy still
14:21
kind of like that's great but
14:23
it's still like their these people over here who
14:25
do climate change in movies people over here
14:27
to diplomacy rest air to trust and
14:29
so i'd like to see both the messaging points
14:31
that this is framed around security but
14:34
also frankly the integration of climate
14:36
change into the , of bureaucracies
14:38
national security and in countries around the world
14:41
yeah absolutely and look at the that really
14:43
true and fourteen the us has gotten
14:45
distorted by fossil fuel industry
14:47
lies in their ability to buy off politicians
14:50
and now climate change is fully
14:52
tied into the culture where as he ran the
14:54
republican think the alameda like like
14:57
the issue is a o sea wanting to oh
14:59
many cows so they stop for the abs like
15:01
is like idiocy this
15:03
stuff is gonna like imagine that's going age
15:05
you know like million but it's gonna look like and
15:07
ten twenty years i made by i think what it looks like now
15:10
but ambient speech this case of these
15:12
issues it these , question
15:14
what is national security because the
15:16
national security that kind of protection of
15:18
people's lives the
15:20
on climate and
15:22
mx like these are much
15:24
more dangerous to us
15:26
and taking issue than you're worth taking she's
15:28
up at airport or yourself i
15:30
do think that the democrats and
15:33
i'd welcome republicans and soon like
15:36
framing national security differently not
15:38
accepting the frame the nascar does just that
15:40
in a stack
15:43
rak and stack of terrorism war is terrorism
15:45
support for israel like you know like know
15:47
t nascar use these other things to for sure
15:49
a noel on twitter as what your thoughts
15:52
overall a nuclear power as a clean generation
15:54
method do the risks both real
15:56
and perceived out where the rewards even
15:58
with the impending climate crisis
16:00
the global scale developments and fusion technology
16:02
change anything great question
16:04
i'm nowhere near smart enough to know
16:07
what the reality as was using technology
16:09
feel like every couple years i read
16:11
that were on the cusp something new and i read
16:13
that now we're nowhere close i've no idea
16:15
i do you think you're you and i lived
16:18
through we didn't we know that chernobyl but we
16:20
live studio fukushima disaster
16:22
in japan and that showed
16:24
the enormous downside risk enormous
16:26
downside risk of nuclear technology in
16:30
the us for long time like the the
16:32
climate movement
16:35
environmental , was was
16:38
nuclear power yeah coaching to change that
16:41
he hoped that stats are pretty stark
16:43
nuclear power plants generate about excess
16:45
of the electricity in the u s and about half
16:47
of our carbon free electricity the
16:50
nuclear plants in the us getting shut down sexy
16:52
cheaper to get power from natural gas so
16:55
you know what prefer that all our power come from
16:57
you solar panels and stuff absolutely
16:59
to think that's feasible today not even close
17:02
so guess my position would be do not close down
17:04
existing plants keep investing in r
17:06
and d to figure out to make them safer and
17:08
more efficient but i mean i think
17:10
right now nuclear kind of has to be part the answer
17:13
yeah this is a really interesting question
17:15
and and again i welcome your listeners
17:18
yeah tommy wareham or heads out elsewhere were wrong
17:20
i i
17:22
when was in glasgow are you glasgow
17:25
day climate change summit i'd tucker
17:27
bunch of people in one
17:29
of the things that kept coming up with this like
17:32
the emissions goals the
17:34
speed of transition that is required this
17:37
kind of like it's hard to
17:39
see absent some technological
17:41
breakthrough the just we're not that
17:43
hasn't happened were not aware of i'm
17:46
wearing a mask ailing up have the potential
17:48
of hydro power something new
17:50
clothes clothes way the
17:52
has to be part the equation here and
17:54
couple of examples like good the
17:57
one is germany right so editor
18:00
mama miracle
18:03
decided to basically shut down germany's nuclear
18:05
power plants that
18:08
decision is
18:10
part of contributed to the
18:12
building these type of hindsight bring in more
18:14
oil and gas from russia so
18:17
both increasing dependence on fossil fuels
18:19
climbers you an increasing depends on russia
18:22
and , as you kind of the danger of
18:25
walking away from nuclear
18:27
and least before you have renewable
18:29
alternatives to nuclear right that's one
18:31
thing the other thing is in this is something
18:33
out about in glasgow not from for the french
18:36
by the way the french get lot of their power
18:38
from nuclear and
18:40
one of the things it did that is can required
18:43
to allow the developing world
18:45
said tend to not rely on fossil fuels
18:47
is to give them quicker
18:50
and available sources energy
18:53
on big scale yeah and
18:55
nuclear plants or
18:57
actually you get and available
19:00
option for that because you
19:02
know in people know how to build them you
19:04
know people know how to get energy
19:06
out of them and and that can be
19:08
done on a timeline that is feasible
19:11
for this transition so again i'm
19:14
the or environmental reasons skins and nuclear
19:17
powers their security storage of the ways
19:19
yes georgia the waste yeah there
19:21
are necessary reasons like says he either
19:23
proliferation risks with that you are
19:25
relying on on nuclear that
19:28
, i'm currently in
19:30
place where it's hard to see how we don't
19:33
return to the a
19:35
global reliance to some extent
19:38
none like out a whole extent you actually want
19:40
those other renewables on nuclear

24:02
attritional insurance
24:09
can't you and twitter as how can you take like
24:11
global action when any given point about half
24:13
the country's have right leaning governments to do not
24:15
prioritize climates the pears cards
24:17
were a decent starting point but it's bare minimum
24:19
we can do
24:21
fair fair and you know you
24:24
, a we talked to justin trudeau bad
24:26
there's a bit i mean
24:28
there's kind of it a multi track
24:30
your approach sec one is like elections
24:33
right and trying to elect people care about climate change
24:35
on that should be taken as given enough
24:37
requires as enough requires trudeau
24:39
said like some either
24:41
persuasion the of
24:43
people who aren't convinced climate change
24:45
or are , policies
24:47
like he talked about designing his cap and trade to
24:50
basically provide like a subsidy
24:52
yeah to did to individuals
24:54
yeah yeah that that's in mix
24:56
more attractive i think beyond that though
24:59
we have to understand and this
25:01
is really important for climate movement climate
25:04
indices something else i took away from that glasgow
25:06
experience where it becomes so underperformed
25:08
people's expectations and
25:10
in for lot reasons if you even
25:12
where had a government committed to climate change because joe
25:14
manchin isn't we
25:17
, probably not gonna spend the seven
25:19
hundred billion dollars or there was comey
25:21
good down payment on transition we
25:24
have to accept that governments
25:27
these are not going do enough you
25:29
know a whiskey pushing on added trend
25:31
change that but that means
25:34
pressuring businesses pressing
25:37
private sector oppression financial institutions
25:39
and people understandably right
25:41
be think roll their eyes at
25:43
be climate finance
25:46
decorations are made are you know trillions
25:48
dollars in finance for renewables
25:50
or when com companies make
25:52
these kind of vague promises to be carbon neutral
25:54
by some you're in the future you know
25:57
but that and actually may be
25:59
that that activism needs
26:01
be directed at much at corporations
26:04
and financial institutions as governments
26:08
so that we we aren't just
26:10
sitting back and waiting for governs do the right
26:12
thing here you know yeah it's really about moving
26:15
money into queen energy and out of
26:17
fossil fuels as fast as possible
26:19
and and lastly it's also about individual
26:21
consumer choices right like how are you powering
26:23
you're homer else is there a like
26:25
wow much energy using the like and
26:29
and so i think fit like to has to kind a whole
26:31
of society approach
26:33
taken to climate so that
26:35
you not putting all your eggs in the and
26:37
the government basket frankly so
26:39
what it sounds like you're saying is
26:41
that you are an investor in the
26:44
company that the former ceo
26:46
of we work started to put
26:48
carbon credits on the block chain
26:50
the dude adam human race seventy million
26:53
dollars most of it from my a sixteen
26:55
zero
26:57
would you give more money the we work either
26:59
rattling i said , first
27:01
guy is neither here dirt percent of the guy
27:03
that i would add something and nesting doll of zambia
27:05
yeah like give give much money to
27:07
add to the protests i had i do
27:10
think there is a real place for i'm
27:12
for private sector investment especially like
27:14
big swings shit like season technology
27:17
be as yeah means a lot of those companies
27:19
are and fail yeah like i don't look
27:21
look i read i the
27:24
bleed profoundly support government
27:26
action as nice as said to justin trudeau like
27:28
this government can accelerate
27:31
climate changes in ways that nobody
27:33
else can cause i can change laws and regulations
27:36
but like even in this country like we could
27:38
lose congress and not have not have at passing
27:40
climate legislation for awhile in
27:43
we pass it we have this kind of right
27:45
wing reactionary supreme court that might strike down
27:47
as was like we just have to be working
27:49
every lever we can we can pull here and
27:51
any he i don't feel the tagline we're
27:54
gonna be able to salvage technological breakthroughs
27:56
is kind a right wing non caught
27:59
climate nine talking point
28:01
but that didn't change the fact that like pressing
28:03
and pushing and pressuring in
28:06
every direction you can isn't still
28:08
something the have do to hedge against governing max
28:10
yeah also just remember that you know atomic
28:13
wanna go on so bad here but the us
28:15
historically speaking historically responsible for
28:17
like one third of the total
28:19
excess carbon ever released in the atmosphere
28:21
through the industrial revolution so industrial
28:23
think our job here as to just be to lead
28:26
and create economic incentives that make it
28:28
easier for other countries to follow and not like
28:30
make this just make collective
28:32
action bottleneck wherever action winds that well
28:34
as and he doesn't do in time isn't there was one of
28:36
us doing values after yeah we had we
28:38
gotta get all seventeen also not binary like
28:41
progress like we'll
28:43
on twitter wants to know what are some of the issues
28:45
trends we you don't focus on too
28:47
much the which think are going to be
28:50
front page issues in next three or five
28:52
years and you time
28:54
to take an edible now
28:56
man wish i did guy well anyway just
28:58
pretended it of yours mine okay
29:00
artificial intelligence when reading this book about
29:03
ai no , knows when it's gonna happen
29:05
but some point twenty years fifty years two
29:07
hundred years years going to machines that
29:09
are smarter than us and those machines
29:11
will know how to program
29:13
selves to become even smarter machines like
29:16
adults and item and we no idea where
29:18
that's gonna that's and the
29:20
movie version of this is always like very
29:22
very dark you know from terminator
29:24
to act smart and i always we win in terminator spoiler
29:27
but i'm you know like
29:30
we ultimately will have to code some
29:32
sort of ethics into these machines into
29:34
what their goal is and what they want do
29:37
arm or a meets he likes maybe
29:39
debatable whether we'll be able to code fx
29:42
into things that become super intelligent
29:44
so fascinating
29:47
kind of scared think about i'm
29:49
not thrilled when i think
29:51
about the current crop us technology
29:54
big thinkers since the concerned
29:56
they're selling with current technology is
29:58
about like ethics in
30:00
morality i'm also worried that humans seem
30:02
predisposed to use all new things
30:05
to hurt each other so you know
30:07
there's were and yeah it does and aspect to
30:09
this like the like
30:11
and like and just kind of terminator
30:13
blade runner or like the killer
30:15
robots angle but a
30:17
i is gonna be normalized and warfare
30:20
yeah and ways that reduce
30:22
the cost of to in human
30:24
life
30:25
launching was she the taser drone
30:27
the i'm company voted for schools yeah
30:29
i mean just crazy shit is our yachts and
30:31
tic tic build surveillance states like see
30:34
him and and was from china's
30:36
diet trance yeah that's yeah good met trend
30:38
i would say casino we know we talked about
30:40
climate
30:43
three five years like as a good timelines
30:45
for taiwan depends a boil i
30:47
think the thing the thing spotlight the
30:51
there we talk about but not as something
30:53
that is going to get like
30:55
exponentially more
30:58
intense migration
31:00
this now like the
31:02
current estimates from i when the you and migration shitty
31:04
is that they're two hundred and eighty
31:06
one million international
31:09
migrant out and twenty twenty mostly
31:11
by wars or yeah we end it but
31:13
it's wars it's also just like the
31:16
population growth in developing world
31:18
is is so enormous and
31:21
there now technology right the that
31:23
allows people the see what
31:25
life is like in different places to have
31:28
like to be put in touch with human
31:30
traffickers or smuggling routes
31:33
the , that you're just going stop migration
31:35
which is kind of default political
31:37
third third in the and
31:39
most advanced democracies these
31:42
numbers are gonna the multiplying
31:44
hundred million two hundred million three hundred million
31:47
like as climate change also
31:49
kicks in and there's resource scarcity
31:52
and some the most intense resource care to cities
31:54
mean places like south asia and
31:56
places along the equator sub saharan africa
31:59
am i the think that we don't have system
32:01
globally the manage
32:03
migration flows it that systems already
32:05
broken and is that it's about finding
32:08
homes for refugees it's just
32:10
about the idea that enormous amounts
32:12
of human beings are going to be on the move
32:15
in ways that bring political instability
32:17
and ways in which there's just
32:20
there's nothing they can absorb that
32:22
right into when looked out five
32:24
ten twenty years you're
32:27
right like climate change the
32:29
development new technologies and a
32:31
i in questions that's gonna raise
32:34
the migration of people like this
32:36
is the future that were going be dealing
32:38
with and it is it's not
32:40
near these kind of needs national
32:43
security issues it of dominate our debates
32:45
the last antonio north
32:47
korea iran like big met
32:49
trends are gonna be remaking
32:52
the the world around yeah our
32:55
on twitter great name
32:57
love that in from northern ireland but i live
32:59
in madrid that's cool few months
33:01
ago ted cruz give big feast of lox
33:03
members spanish far a party or
33:05
the dams and the other left wing parties
33:07
across world doing enough to work together not just dems
33:09
beating with uk labour ps definitely
33:11
me for pm censuses feels like as
33:13
written for yeah yeah yeah the answer's no
33:16
we're not doing enough
33:17
the i thought this
33:19
for while we talked about summers show i'll
33:21
try to the be concrete about it
33:24
and away in a moment i will say
33:26
that like one the times is really hit
33:28
me is i went to spain
33:30
would you madrid where l is currently
33:32
living having ,
33:35
a different weather environment and the northern ireland
33:37
a new downs will be for belfast
33:39
great move javascript marie and
33:42
i was there like the week after
33:45
the ban had visited
33:48
spain to kind of bless the new vox pardew
33:50
rates and the thing to me
33:53
said that i'd say that this is like then
33:56
there's an asymmetry in terms of how
33:58
the right coordinates the left corner
34:02
the other the last the
34:04
best you have conferences
34:06
and i am going to what should make him as we
34:08
rights a democracy gotta sides but
34:10
, your conferences you have parliamentary
34:13
exchanges yeah you have liked the david
34:15
lammy to the world meeting with the the chris
34:17
murphy to the world and that's great that's all really
34:19
important stuff stuff there's couple
34:21
things missing like one is i think we
34:23
don't in imposing the
34:25
question we do need to look more than discount
34:27
democratic party labour party like
34:30
i don't think there's the connectivity with
34:33
some the other social democratic parties in europe or
34:35
the green party's certainly not
34:37
with you know emerging
34:39
progressive wieters in places that white america
34:41
like gave a breach do we talked about doesn't you know
34:44
so so you need better can activity
34:46
among parties globally on
34:48
center left the progressive left but
34:50
didn't really important if you look what the right does these
34:53
are not just people meeting with
34:55
each other they share political
34:58
strategies they share political messaging
35:01
they literally share media platforms are
35:03
activate they like they have a crooked
35:05
media
35:06
a global could be bannon as international
35:08
interviews all this year end but the then
35:10
they're also like there's like versions
35:12
of breitbart in different countries and
35:14
right there they they
35:17
it by the way they share rich
35:19
donor types
35:21
by up the media rights if you look at
35:23
the the inroads for the right in places like
35:25
central his nerves you literally have
35:27
like right when people buying up median turning
35:29
him into propaganda and and organs
35:32
rights of in way that like we feel
35:34
you get your hands dirty rights it
35:36
and so i think that did this delete
35:39
the needs to be taken is not just on the dialogue
35:42
but , literally the much more active
35:44
coordination among
35:47
progressive people on center left in
35:49
the media space in the social
35:51
media space and messaging space
35:54
in the ways in which political campaigns iran
35:57
one of better things happen i added the obama
35:59
years in this you're where where we we
36:01
had a lot democratic backsliding but
36:03
some of the people
36:06
that modeled their own politics
36:08
on the obama await campaign we're
36:11
justin trudeau and emanuel
36:13
mccrone and
36:15
, like like was toolbox
36:17
made me think like we should have created a roadshow
36:20
after the way campaign to go teach
36:22
people how to do that known for say some are
36:24
consultants didn't they are they pick some that
36:26
horses from time to time yeah yeah
36:28
and sometimes they want to read consultants of
36:30
your name any names out
36:33
there are no humor him yes and as other islands
36:35
of but ah so i do i dissing sv
36:37
like toolkit has toolkit brought into yep
36:39
and brought and yep see this to like i
36:42
would like to see the the us
36:44
administration the more willing
36:46
to to to dabble in stride
36:49
so like trump when he was president
36:51
had didn't you didn't worry
36:53
about when you came fucked with them
36:55
about blacks yeah didn't he didn't he didn't make
36:57
his he didn't wasn't battle of making his
36:59
preference known like
37:02
i think it was difficult because of
37:04
the war ukraine obviously but like no
37:06
the us government by mission
37:08
kind of your you didn't hear them put some
37:10
on that scale on hungry election i'm
37:13
yup that said nancy can help send him to get her
37:15
and they can her but but do just think that like
37:17
we have an interest if we an interest in democracy
37:19
succeeding not like matter
37:22
of my like meddling in elections i'm sorry email
37:24
like building solidarity with
37:26
of course of course course and david lammy
37:29
would make agree brand great mobile
37:31
started farmer certain set of farmers are so
37:33
that's a masseuse one forced to them
37:37
you know it's not like beggar i'm glen
37:39
on twitter as and glenn beck glen robinson
37:42
angry mob greenwald on one of about what
37:44
would it take to make people care more about what's happening
37:46
in myanmar the great question glenn
37:49
i would start by saying it would take a lot of concern
37:51
people like you you know like the saved
37:53
our for movement was incredibly effective the
37:56
grassroots organ meat
37:58
there was money behind it but it was an amazing like grassroots
38:01
organizations county that twenty
38:03
suavity deeply flawed deeply
38:05
deeply flawed effort to bring attention to an
38:07
issue but like i did you can go
38:09
sort of show that citizen activism
38:12
can go a very very long way
38:15
mean obviously i didn't edu world you are not
38:17
doing it you know just from your laptop
38:19
in california you are like lifting up the stories
38:21
and voices and opinions of people in myanmar
38:24
while diaspora but mean
38:27
the there's some there's some space here for souls that
38:30
you know it's engine and and i'm glad we
38:32
got this question i actually
38:34
i was talking someone the
38:36
from the me and my position recently
38:39
the
38:39
kind of resume thing and your
38:42
, were saying like it's obviously continue
38:44
to be very bad assets the military
38:46
is not like loosening it's grip but
38:49
did you know the opposition there
38:51
been a substantial number military defections
38:55
the , that that she was making is
38:58
that there's both the ongoing
39:01
humanitarian and political catastrophe
39:03
of school but there's also an ongoing
39:05
resistance that very broad and deep in
39:08
terms of the question one
39:10
example is actually the
39:12
first time that the ball
39:15
got american should myanmar when
39:17
long since you choose imprison the know
39:19
burma was pretty decent place
39:21
disconnected from like
39:23
kind of core american national street interests
39:26
but there was this kind of interesting movement
39:28
that built up around her
39:31
also run rights in burma generally that included
39:34
you're lot civil society organizations
39:37
the burmese diaspora diaspora
39:39
lot of like there's like lot
39:41
like faith based organization is
39:43
his birthday and raised baptist just
39:46
as bad that baptista ethnic minorities
39:48
are and what does people did was smart
39:50
is they found sentence and congress
39:53
right who took up this issue
39:55
the bio a bizarrely including mitch
39:57
mcconnell but that's a whole separate story in
40:00
honor the is that whole history because even when
40:02
something does have broad public attention if you
40:04
have like tenacious champions and congress
40:07
like that will keep this on the agenda
40:10
will keep sources of funding and
40:12
oversight of the issue and so it
40:14
it's about building that kind of broad civil
40:16
society movement
40:18
, keeps attention something that targets
40:20
congress to to be involved
40:22
and doesn't have to be every member but just find the champions
40:25
demobilizes diaspora hop years and to care
40:27
about this this frankly
40:29
like if like , a national study frame
40:31
to this burma i would
40:34
argue that the nexus of lot of things you care about
40:36
the democracy verses autocracy peace
40:39
china and
40:41
, rising influence in the world world
40:44
the of natural resources that
40:46
there are like lot of intersecting american
40:48
intersecting in in burma
40:51
and inside do think that like going
40:53
back and looking the playbook use in the eighties
40:56
nineties to pressure the burmese
40:58
government around on some cities
41:00
and political freedoms
41:02
and even of ethnic minorities gem is important
41:04
but then also maintaining and building connectivity
41:07
to the burmese opposition you know
41:09
so that they are know they have lines
41:11
into washington and york and los angeles
41:13
goats places that have influences countries
41:16
that matters to free tibet is another good
41:18
example obviously was ultimately they have not achieve
41:20
their know and frankly it's completely faded
41:22
from the limelight but again like you know there were massive
41:25
concerts and then in the mid nineties
41:27
was sort of like a cause celeb
41:29
literally and to death in have been
41:31
, were studying this hard one ben johnson
41:34

47:31
then on twitter amateur it's you have them about
47:34
what's your favorite program album there
47:37
are you not to ten i think know that in the
47:39
what you get i get versus a
47:41
of the as you like vs better than ten yeah
47:43
holy shit yeah shocking
47:45
to me i i
47:48
i , i mean we can all like
47:50
ten is obscene things started all but
47:53
there's development and like
47:55
depth to the yeah the sound
47:58
and lyrics and vs i like the a
48:00
the obama party over the
48:02
summer that everyone flipped out about for
48:04
absolutely no reason for copd reasons i
48:06
found myself in the like
48:08
portage on with eddie vedder after
48:10
having had several cocktails
48:13
and i think i said something to him like thank for
48:15
making old music that defines my
48:18
it'll conical years i this may be
48:20
like i'm this may be of will too revealing
48:22
of like when i was is like versus
48:24
go get came and like play like the height of
48:26
my
48:28
the next right as probably like six years
48:30
length and like like elderly
48:32
woman behind counter railway guy
48:34
threats and i see yeah i
48:36
know that yet lower end it like like
48:39
that hit me aggressive me very directly
48:41
i was like says i hate to sound like olds
48:44
nerds but on their as i go viral
48:46
tweet that someone sends me once every six months
48:48
which shows like seven albums that are came out in
48:50
the same basically forty four day period ninety
48:52
one there was like program ten guns
48:54
roses your illusions one into red hot
48:56
chili peppers or blood sugar sex
48:58
magic the metallic black album soundgarden
49:01
dad motor finger which finger didn't listen to the
49:03
and then nirvana nevermind like some other more
49:06
the clinic albums a good deco
49:08
mean those are some fucking bangers i dare
49:10
i mean i do think like the
49:12
chris cornell fans i get it but like i soundgarden
49:16
he get on my list will say the
49:19
you collapse use your illusion and one album
49:23
i mean that like this just monster
49:25
miser it was strange don't cry
49:28
number rates that was also the height of video
49:30
music video iraq and aren't he was met
49:32
them i was having conversation some today like i
49:35
know this happens all the time constantly throughout
49:37
history things are massively relevant
49:39
in the get replaced by still hard to
49:41
explain to people
49:43
how big of deal mtv was and
49:45
now it's just kind a gun jammed and guns
49:47
and and how big a deal guns and roses when race
49:49
they are unfortunate could never follow that up because
49:51
they knew they couldn't get along hard
49:53
drugs whatever they did have the
49:56
best album name for the follow
49:58
up the took them like twenty years
50:00
the was very good chinese democracy half
50:02
a world i'll just and good grades
50:04
it's a gene args have execute he put the
50:06
years ago but as as history it's a
50:08
gene are put out an album and like ninety ninety
50:10
two it was as good as use
50:12
your illusion the chinese democracy
50:15
would china be democracy great ray
50:17
question
50:18
would been there when to change yep it's
50:20
also hard to overstate how different nirvana
50:22
sounded compared almost everything
50:24
else at the time it was just like blue your head
50:26
i grew up with the hair bands and like daily stuff
50:28
and like when something like there's cricket cobain
50:30
it was like a second
50:32
the man and ten came out right then too
50:34
there was a those are the to seattle around those
50:36
with two things because what's interesting about that list
50:38
is it use your illusion canada best
50:41
an end of the hair
50:43
rock period up and then like ten
50:45
and and and the
50:47
smell the confederacy the beginning of were
50:50
just like getting made fun of talking about talking neighboring
50:52
the neighboring was ah anna wants to
50:54
now advice young adults wanting to get into foreign policy
50:56
work after college grad school there's
50:59
a hard one because i lox my way into it i'm not
51:01
glad you guys i got a job with rock obama
51:03
on at two thousand four campaign that
51:05
is it any issues sort of worked for the right person
51:08
or a by i was lot luckier
51:10
than i was smart you and more the think
51:12
tank he i went think and grab but then
51:15
like that the block i had was working
51:18
a campaign
51:19
that elected brock i'm president
51:21
yeah another thing the people who said
51:23
are what you don't work for hillary ob
51:25
blackboard and i got i've literally got taken
51:27
out for like multiple times before
51:29
i knew that sky go with you guys
51:32
hey don't work on that campaign cause he's been losing you will
51:34
get job and other it's i will say this
51:36
a in i gave lot of coffees with the
51:38
of people younger people on
51:40
this question i'm going to
51:43
them is like there's actually a lot more
51:45
number one don't resume don't right so
51:47
don't be like while have to get this
51:49
master's degree and in this interactive
51:51
programmes to then i want to
51:53
beat that you know if i'd try
51:56
to do that actually never would have ended up in the white house
51:58
granted that i've had some lot a too
52:01
it's much of a bigger feel did you have to
52:03
run with particular you're like fresh calls
52:05
for grad school because people tend to
52:07
think it's like do i go to career and government
52:10
and that's great but there's campaigns
52:12
right campaigns lead to government
52:15
jobs in ways that allow you to
52:17
know get to work with principal gets know politics
52:20
in comments but then also they're
52:22
international and he owes the that i think people
52:24
don't think about enough you know like get out in
52:26
the field that you're young you're flexibility go
52:29
living somewhere else there's peace corps
52:31
there's that this guy that that the bigger
52:33
ones saved children's in the eye or seasons
52:36
but then there's a smaller one some really interesting
52:38
compelling small and jos around the world
52:40
doing accountability work during development work
52:43
on so so there
52:45
there's a get a diversity of diversity of
52:48
into this year then there's a think tank
52:50
ruby like the young person now been
52:52
set up conferences era do research
52:54
for someone who's writing a book on
52:56
and and so i would advise is take
52:59
a long look at the biggest possible
53:01
spectrum media like you
53:04
go work and and dot time for documentary production
53:06
company on something else did there's lots of
53:08
ways into this and take advantage
53:10
of the flexibility is you have in your twenties the
53:13
be able to pick up and go live someplace else with
53:15
that i pogo campaign another country and
53:17
like love you know the traditional bass are join the
53:19
military to foreign service exam or
53:21
join you the intel community i'm pretty
53:23
damn interesting and those rollins singh has
53:25
and kurds and but also like there
53:27
are year abroad gov is broader
53:29
wages and ah at geek
53:32
ten i think this one is ah when
53:34
hitting international airports you hit
53:36
the airline lounges or hang out in
53:38
the general terminal prefer skipping lounges
53:40
myself i don't really have
53:43
guess depends on how long layover it's like
53:45
sometimes
53:47
what do like fifty bucks to go like that dot
53:49
the lounge or something like i you know the
53:51
big the if you had david ever eight hours
53:54
i would have allowance so here's the thing
53:56
i'm actually in for guy for
53:59
like sometimes hit the
54:00
sounds because like if have like the free wine
54:02
you know i'm absolutely gutted perfect
54:04
yeah but like i actually love
54:06
airports i'm in this is probably like a
54:08
precocious point but it it still
54:11
holds like if you're if a
54:13
long way over my guy
54:15
like a weird asian airport like singapore
54:18
or like japan as i'm like
54:20
fashion airports like i just kind of
54:22
walk around yeah i kind wander
54:25
around and i just kind like people watch
54:27
mean europe that is malls in in europe they've

something like cool and freeing about it it in
55:04
airports and like i feel like i'm stepping out
55:06
of all the anxieties my life in i'm just in this
55:08

55:22
somewhere the
55:23
world over your head and eight yards saxon
55:25
we idea he fit on the us a one
55:27
time i left my i was coming back
55:29
from a trip in europe and i left my
55:31
laptop on plane and then i crossed
55:34
out of the euro zone into like and i
55:36
to figure how to get back in his and named said
55:38
don't do that arm is the answer
55:40
one time i back
55:43
when i was smoker
55:47
i left my passport in
55:50
one those like we're allowed to yeah
55:52
hoof and was in like singapore
55:56
and i could have been completely fucked
55:58
like brilliant like
56:00
oh yeah oh yeah and and
56:03
very nice person like gave to like
56:05
the verne as per person at the than
56:08
out of can get arrested for him saying this but i like
56:10
a new year is hit snow there was just
56:12
like wow like i like when a big
56:15
boards and life i dodged some that the
56:17
don't that go to the i don't take passport
56:19
either pocket i'm going to summarize is fine for
56:21
andrew on twitter
56:22
you've got republican friends what is the sixty
56:25
second pit with the elevator pitch
56:27
for why democrats are better than
56:30
republicans for boss well
56:34
i wanna say we get into fewer wars yeah
56:36
i was about to i write about the ones obama started
56:39
and iraq and iraq think any to caveat that little
56:41
more well more well
56:42
that one in iraq know i'm saying
56:44
the idea you know libya people
56:47
are so i'm thinking about what people going to read at
56:49
me
56:50
i will be like well like there's a couple ways
56:52
to go on this or in didn't works
56:54
up as before because it's good to can talk it through
56:59
because i like one way to do like the
57:03
republicans got us into war neurons
57:05
full stop that it's like he was able
57:07
democrats said a farewell never against noted
57:10
that the final second pitches like the
57:12
iraq war is where republican foreign policy
57:14
let us and destroyed the
57:16
world order and it led
57:18
to the rapid diminishing of american influence
57:21
and , of democracy promotion
57:23
around world world
57:25
and here we are read so like that may
57:27
be the shortest one i think
57:29
the longer one is it actually like
57:31
republicans have no foreign
57:33
policy right now they don't know whether
57:36
they're hawks you like to get into wars or
57:38
america first was like donald trump democrats
57:40
have have steady
57:43
competent reliable foreign policy
57:45
that tries keep hundred out of wars while keeping
57:48
us safe and advocating for
57:50
democratic values and if you're a
57:52
republican who like ronald
57:54
reagan in things stood for your
57:57
party didn't send for that anymore you're
58:00
democrat who didn't like the iraq war
58:02
like were ones front of rent the next one mean
58:05
think i actually do think democrats have much
58:07
more real estate's on foreign policy than
58:09
republicans is it i'd say i figured out
58:11
why you're talking
58:13
nine eleven happened and george w bush has watch
58:16
and then invaded iran country in response
58:18
depth cheating as a good policy
58:20
how about it yeah yeah i'm an
58:22
but he's right the elevator pitch point is
58:24
a good one in and sit in in the
58:26
elevator pitch for us the
58:28
in obama i think we'd good one and away
58:31
the which is essentially like barack
58:33
obama opposed to swore that never should been
58:35
raged he will authorize
58:37
or wage yes hillary clinton was that either
58:40
i guess he will wind down the wars
58:42
focus on the terraces actually attacked us
58:45
and restore america's standing and supporter
58:47
of our democratic guys run the world's could sell and
58:49
was a really good tied pets yep and
58:52
, in the world little more we're the more
58:54
complicated in complicated them are
58:56
but says something like that something like
58:58
like the critique with like
59:00
that the quick which is like if
59:03
you want be proud to be american if want
59:05
be and this is something would say to a
59:07
patriotic republicans soon be
59:09
proud of your country on the world
59:11
stage stand for things
59:14
on world stage and have an
59:16
example of setting a democrat example
59:18
in this country that is relevant around the world like
59:20
the only option is this for democrats like
59:23
like didn't the rest the world looks
59:25
republicans as as a party
59:27
does increasingly the
59:30
trustworthy not competent enough the
59:33
put him democratic values certainly
59:36
nationalist and not focus on the
59:38
singular threat to the entire planet
59:40
basis with as climate is that to yeah i'm
59:43
george wants to now because as like on
59:45
the road from us talk about the and be files two minutes
59:47
for getting the heavy stuff this is task
59:49
as we're recording us on wednesday june eight gonna
59:51
go out a week from today i
59:53
know what we know that when the the yeah albeit
59:55
incredibly dated by
59:58
i will say i mean this is like my the
1:00:00
series is he teams are just so fun
1:00:02
and young and she the lights
1:00:04
out when they want to and everybody seems to able
1:00:06
like i mean the celtics hundred
1:00:09
on in that game one fourth quarter and
1:00:11
away you rarely see a team deal and then
1:00:14
dumb steve curve drew up
1:00:16
some plane coming out of have time and
1:00:18
the warriors destroyed the celtics
1:00:20
in the third quarter of the second game the
1:00:22
way this is like anna nobody else can do
1:00:24
it staff does and were clay does when he's on
1:00:27
and it's just it's blast yeah
1:00:29
i guess what it is like this series is like
1:00:31
why i love the indian
1:00:33
think it's doing the best of any major professional
1:00:35
sports are now because it has other things
1:00:37
i love bet m a got a high wattage stars
1:00:39
like steph curry
1:00:41
god really amazing and guys you know
1:00:43
injure huge things like jayson tatum it's
1:00:45
got kind of weird mix of different
1:00:48
lineups you know that these teams can
1:00:50
run out it's got like eccentric
1:00:53
personalities like draymond green marcus
1:00:55
smart it's got like politically active
1:00:57
like coaches like mc voters yes
1:00:59
is made up of yeah yeah boy and got the
1:01:02
international confirming do nigerian power
1:01:04
yoga not a i do not a proponent both
1:01:06
players and coaches so like if you look at
1:01:08
did this series it encompasses
1:01:10
a lot why the ba is like of
1:01:12
all the league's the one that i feel like it
1:01:15
is in a girlfriend bedevilling embraced
1:01:17
these guys being themselves and sang
1:01:19
with i want say and away they think is like benefiting
1:01:22
the league and long run you know charlie car can
1:01:24
pretend he's turning us sports
1:01:26
first life clay travis because in whine about
1:01:28
it like there are watching the whole world watching
1:01:30
yeah the i don't think the mbs i suffered
1:01:33
because feel now add like some
1:01:35
my winners like the attack them over some took a knee
1:01:38
and yeah yeah twenty seven to in this
1:01:40
arena one then from caesar on twitter are
1:01:42
banned for last world cup you told me at your book
1:01:44
to stop in seattle that argentina was
1:01:46

1:01:48
than gotta true and accountability from caesar
1:01:50
who are you rooting for this year news gonna win it all
1:01:53
yeah some real accountability because i i write
1:01:56
years of see not right about that i'm
1:01:58
rooting for the
1:02:00
that you have to talk the first item
1:02:03
in a when a i
1:02:05
might be seen
1:02:07
interesting okay good the pander choice
1:02:09
would have just been say ukraine only one of their and
1:02:11
not a bit they are they're they're they're they're
1:02:13
prop they have to win one more qualifying match
1:02:15
to get in i think they beat scotland and
1:02:18
think that be wales are but i
1:02:20
england's got like you the almost
1:02:22
one euro
1:02:23
they've got this young team supervision
1:02:25
guys the one
1:02:28
one of these cops are going break through through
1:02:30
did the england's in the us draw
1:02:32
we can both get outside only one hundred we get booked
1:02:35
out of a dry it's are slightly i'd around
1:02:37
and euro playoffs that's ukraine
1:02:39
that that's how they also like privee
1:02:41
i in the ukraine so i
1:02:44
don't know but think that
1:02:46
an eye out of tentatively
1:02:48
go thing when but people should be taken
1:02:50
no men and boys are here i know they are uniformly
1:02:53
series with roger bennett our yeah
1:02:55
like one the nicest human beings that are mad
1:02:57
if you love soccer he said listen to the men
1:02:59

football in high school i like i
1:03:34
i not watch what like there's
1:03:36
some real moral qualms with league the way they
1:03:38
make decisions way players are treated way
1:03:41
injuries are not soccer sign right
1:03:43
it's think roger has similar frustration
1:03:45
and feelings about fifa
1:03:48
yeah the that the international body
1:03:50
the decision making the leaders the bribes
1:03:53
the corruption i to tell you that this
1:03:55
is actually started to in really impact
1:03:57
my and this is not virtue signaling i
1:03:59
swear god but again felt
1:04:02
the it's something i'm i'm from
1:04:04
like roger get else seems like a pretty
1:04:06
they can't do all horrible guy layered adam

1:04:17
get i get it get it soccer
1:04:19
one sounds i love it but like it it
1:04:22
is hard to unpack the
1:04:24
kind of
1:04:25
web of international soccer enough it
1:04:27
is grossly anthony refuse is
1:04:30
which sq like the most
1:04:33
there is handing out bags of cash and cash and
1:04:35
yeah business brazen press f lease
1:04:38
on twitter ask what's ask book may be read
1:04:40
in high school or college the made you
1:04:42
think he wanted to learn more about the world as opposed
1:04:44
united states the her question
1:04:46
that's a great question i
1:04:49
mean i'd season the starting
1:04:52
point on the doesn't
1:04:55
directly answer the question but to me
1:04:58
like i studied abroad
1:05:01
and it was completely transformers
1:05:03
me because it like where were you i
1:05:05
was in paris so that go have
1:05:07
like that is a rip embark on the sand i
1:05:09
was having a good at is a good time reading
1:05:12
fiction but remember i was there during the day
1:05:14
and really dating myself and get some serious
1:05:16
like guess your weight of america knows
1:05:18
clinton impeachment out and the
1:05:21
, thought that was the funniest fucking thing
1:05:23
the world really is there like what are you talking about
1:05:25
like our president have like is you know
1:05:29
know at his funeral like at
1:05:31
but like a not saying i agreed with that
1:05:33
causes lot of hair on the clint like clint
1:05:35
pitchman him as it comes behavior
1:05:37
is nice why yes the point i'm
1:05:39
making is it like seeing my
1:05:41
country they are radically different perspective yeah
1:05:44
that's the thing was that's the us and i won't understand
1:05:47
like a with both getting know of
1:05:49
the foreign place but also
1:05:51
likes booking where i was from from
1:05:53
the perspective of like
1:05:56
a foreign lands you know that to me
1:05:58
was like oh this can change the i think about everything
1:06:01
because you can change not just like oh i can learn
1:06:03
about this other culture it's also
1:06:05
like i can look my own culture from
1:06:07
from from another window unit yeah i diverse
1:06:10
antlers rants i studied abroad i was in italy
1:06:12
i'm mostly in florence we traveled
1:06:14
everywhere sets another good place i've visited some
1:06:16
some friends either europass and this
1:06:18
is it's like the call it is amazing but are
1:06:20
yeah this was like right when it does pre nine eleven
1:06:23
said right when the euro zone was about
1:06:25
to be coming to fruition says he get around
1:06:28
and also you looked at the kind of
1:06:30
the version us history that your i were
1:06:32
taught in school started and seventeen
1:06:34
seventy six the hum and
1:06:36
you know when you're i know that's obviously like
1:06:39
very fucked up but when you're in country
1:06:41
like italy and year running
1:06:43
around and you're seeing get roman ruins
1:06:45
to you know renaissance artists
1:06:48
i mean you just like the sweep of yeah places
1:06:50
in transferring that their dad it's
1:06:52
it stretches your understanding things i think
1:06:54
for me on books front and
1:06:56
it was usually novels a i i remember
1:06:59
i'm
1:07:01
taking a lot classes in like foreign
1:07:03
literature in college and i
1:07:06
, reading on a hundred years solitude
1:07:08
by liberal or cousin
1:07:10
it was site oh i'm
1:07:12
like similarly to studying abroad as like
1:07:16
these people are just looking at the world
1:07:18
since very different records yeah interesting and i
1:07:20
wish remember mordant things read in high school
1:07:23
and college yeah yeah
1:07:25
i was stretching my no
1:07:28
brain to remember book and then i'm irritable
1:07:30
as costa rica
1:07:33
tosses right glasses my of european literature
1:07:35
turn sooty those
1:07:37
are you can college is this little bastion
1:07:40
of like insane liberalism in
1:07:42
rural ohio but the
1:07:44
political science farben was like super
1:07:47
right wing neo con leo
1:07:49
strauss he in i didn't really
1:07:51
know what it to time think there are probably
1:07:53
big push supporters yeah might
1:07:55
not am sure like seltzer day and was
1:07:57
it an impact my views but i'm i
1:07:59
did my
1:08:00
physical science classes at the baker institute
1:08:02
at rice nine james a baker he teach
1:08:04
classes know he didn't but like the you
1:08:06
know and and i don't know that the that the faculty
1:08:08
was perfectly right wing but like there was a there was
1:08:10
definitely like a presence of that bush baker
1:08:13
george p bush went to college of magic costs
1:08:15
of them really yeah it was i took a great
1:08:17
tragedy yeah i gotta
1:08:19
say wait second factors that are
1:08:21
funny that is a yeah
1:08:25
i , great tragedy with george bush
1:08:28
a a [unk] linear
1:08:30
i did we read like euripides and stuff we read
1:08:32
the article is like a way
1:08:35
like that is interesting think about now that
1:08:37
is the lead of mark leibovich mark
1:08:39
, know if a last
1:08:41
question just for kicks this from noel
1:08:44
i dunno else a favorite taylor
1:08:46
swift song fan
1:08:49
in canine read album so
1:08:51

1:08:53
daughters your phone got evans i listen to
1:08:56
like an extraordinary amount telescopes on
1:08:59
friends family faraday adams will be love
1:09:01
taylor set my personal favorite
1:09:03
the cardigan that might like i
1:09:06
like that folklore album it's
1:09:08
great and i can tell ya mckenzie it's and
1:09:10

1:09:29
songwriter they were clearly
1:09:32
works her ass asked to that album written
1:09:34
and produced in the pandemic i believe there's
1:09:37
like one the artist is smart enough to work with great
1:09:39
people going says why work with jack and thus
1:09:41
jump bleachers sneer at the bleachers
1:09:43
bleachers have been corrected when
1:09:46
she's got that national gallery
1:09:48
the national languages there and like all these guys
1:09:50
you know like that she she's really she's
1:09:53
super interesting yeah interesting also
1:09:55
respect artists that embrace collaboration
1:09:57
and give credit and like she features that
1:10:00
in the documentaries that she does for
1:10:02
disney plus or whatever but these shows the
1:10:04
, who pretend that they just like
1:10:06
hide and cried it out of and cells are
1:10:08

1:10:27
before after i guess i'm just gonna say
1:10:29
tommy like a taylor swift if
