Bruce (00:00):
Hey, is this thing working?
Welcome to the Ugly QuackingDuck Podcast.
I'm Bruce.
Sunny (00:16):
And I'm Sunny.
Hello everybody.
Bruce (00:20):
Hello everybody.
It's a great day today.
We are recording in where Sunny.
Sunny (00:28):
In our hideout or hideaway or something like that.
Bruce (00:36):
Yeah, we are in our Midwest hideaway or hideout.
It's actually our studio, butwe like to go in there and hide
out.
Try to get a little bit ofpodcasting recording done.
It's been a busy weekend butwe're finally getting to it.
It is August the 24th 2025.
(00:58):
It's about 6.30 in theafternoon and we are trying to
record.
Today had a little bit of extratime off today or this week,
but we uh, we was off friday.
We got off work thursday early,um, and then we are off today,
(01:19):
which is sunday, the 24th.
Although having more time offdoes not help most of the time,
we ended up being busy errands,mowing grass trimming, and
I've got a lot more trimming todo.
So I've got more to do and Ihaven't got it done.
(01:41):
But I decided to come in andtake a shower and try to do a
little bit of homework to do thepodcast.
So here we are.
Sunny (01:51):
Here we are.
We are here again, and I amglad we're finally recording.
Bruce (02:02):
It's about time, bruce, you're slacking well, thanks for
telling everybody oh, you'remore than welcome well, I am, uh
, I don't think I'm slacking,but anyhow, you ever have one of
those moments in time, um, Idon't know how else to describe
(02:23):
it, but um, that's where most ofmy uh off time went.
Friday I actually was, uh.
Well, it's hard to explain whathappened, but sometime during
the week last week I noticed alittle bit of defectiveness in
(02:46):
my microphone recording and itreally bugged me.
I mean, if you've ever donesomething like that and, uh, it
annoyed you to the point whereyou couldn't quite figure it out
, but it wasn't bad enough tostop, but yet it was, if that
makes sense.
So, uh, it kind of annoyed meand I've lost.
(03:10):
I don't know why, but I wasrunning through scenarios every
time I laid down to go to sleepand it really messed up my sleep
or something else was messingit up, and that's just what my
mind went to every time.
I couldn't go to bed and fallasleep.
Anyhow, I finally come up witha 170 hertz thought.
(03:35):
So what I did is looked it upand they said if you've got a
problem with muddiness, youmight turn that up, but if
you've got it up too high, thenyou turn it down, you get rid of
some of the echo and stuff.
Boy, it wasn't very explanatorythere, so I tried a little bit
(04:01):
of both and I don't know, itjust got frustrated more.
So you know what I did.
Sunny (04:12):
I know what you did.
I was here, good grief, you gotyour old me crazy Bruce.
Bruce (04:19):
Sunny, you are crazy.
Sunny (04:21):
That's true, but anyhow you went kind of nuts there for
a couple of days.
Bruce (04:28):
Yeah, I think part of it may have been because I wasn't
sleeping good to begin with, andI think there's a lot of people
in the world the last few weekshasn't been sleeping well and I
think that's what was affectingme.
That's what was affecting me,so my mind was, you know,
(04:49):
thinking about things and itactually dropped in on that
slight problem.
I noticed and, oh, it drove mecrazy.
But anyway, I changed mics,tried out every mic I had and I
started to record with the Heilmic that I have and it does a
pretty good job, but I justdidn't quite like the sound.
(05:12):
Oh, to make a long story short,I ended up back with my PodMic
and when I was hooking it backup, I went into all the settings
to reset everything.
When I was hooking it back up, Iwent into all the settings to
reset everything and, lo andbehold, I had noticed that on my
noise canceling settingssomehow it had got moved up,
(05:46):
which caused it to cancel out alot of my voice.
So I dropped it back down to100 hertz, which I think helped
it, and I didn't notice thatweird effect that I was getting.
So I don't know when thatchanged or if I did it, or if I,
you know, advertently hit itwhen I thought I was in another
(06:06):
menu, I don't know.
But I turned it back and Ireadjusted my bass, gave it a
little bit more bass and I'mback to what I think was my
normal recording level with thismicrophone.
Normal recording level withthis microphone.
(06:30):
Uh, all around about losing aweek's well, I already lost that
sleep.
I don't think it had anythingto do with that problem.
I just think I wasconcentrating on that because I
couldn't sleep.
But anyway, you ever have oneof those moments.
I had one that, uh, went allthe way around, chased my tail,
ended back up in the same spot,but I think that I had one
(06:52):
little thing off somehow and Iturned it back down to the right
place and, lo and behold, Ithink that's working.
So there you go.
Sunny (07:05):
There you go, there you go.
Okay, bruce, now that you'vebored the whole world, wow well,
I don't.
Bruce (07:13):
Uh, anyway, I've been there and I think everybody else
has on one thing or another.
It probably wasn't a recordingmic, it was probably something
else, and I've done that beforeon my ham radio too, noticed
some weird feedback and oh, itdrove me crazy.
Sunny (07:34):
Tell them, Bruce, what you did to the computer.
Bruce (07:37):
Well, I wasn't going to tell them that, but since you
brought it up, okay, I'll letthe friends and listeners and
the supporters hear me.
But anyway, I also run Audacityon my desktop and I've got my
mixer hooked into it and Irecord on Audacity.
(07:59):
At the same time I record on mymixer.
That actually gives me an extracopy in case I mess something
up.
I usually use the mixerrecording and I put it on
Audacity later and do thepost-editing, but I do have the
(08:22):
extra recording that I just didstraight in Audacity in case
something happens.
Anyhow, I was messing aroundwith my mic and all of a sudden
I noticed there was a problemwith when you use an Audacity.
You can hit enable silentmonitoring and it will let you
(08:45):
see your mic gain or your audiogain with a meter, even if
you're not recording.
And it quit working.
It worked on outside mics.
I have a video camera hooked upalso and it worked with that
(09:05):
microphone, but it would notwork with my mixer anymore.
Unplugged the USB, put a newUSB cable on there, restarted
the computer, did all kinds ofthings and, lo and behold, it
would not work and I thought,boy, I've tore something up.
And then I was scrollingthrough through, I uninstalled
(09:27):
audacity and reinstalled it.
You know that sometimes helpsif it's jammed up and, uh, it
didn't, didn't help, didn't helpat all yeah, well, tell them
how it really goes.
Bruce, you're about ready to gocrazy actually I think I'm
(09:49):
already crazy, but this justproved how crazy I was.
So, lo and behold, after I gotthe microphone set up, I still
could not get audacity to dowhat it's supposed to do.
And as I was going throughscrolling my apps to uninstall
(10:10):
audacity, I noticed a program Ihad put on there earlier when I
was downloading another programfor editing in audacity.
But it was a program that goeson another audio program I have
(10:33):
and it was a vocal umsynthesizer.
And I thought, hey, that's anew thing, I'm going to download
that and, uh, use it later on.
And I never thought anythingabout it.
But you know what I thought?
Wait a minute, I downloadedthat, hadn't tried anything out.
I wonder if that's messing withmy audacity.
(10:54):
So I uninstalled that app and,lo and behold, I restarted the
computer and it started working.
Yay, made me have a little bitof relief, but that was a week's
worth of fighting my recordingstuff, just to come back to the
(11:15):
same old thing so what you'resaying is you didn't do any
headway of improvement, you justcome back around.
Yep, pretty much.
I don't think the audioimproved.
(11:35):
Well, it did improve.
It did improve because what Inoticed the last couple times I
recorded was gone, that littledefect in my audio.
I think it's gone.
I'll have to wait till I editand uh see if it's gone.
But so if that is improved I'mhappy, but otherwise, no, I just
(12:02):
come back all the around and itwas a week worth of frustration
.
But I think a lot of thefrustration was again I wasn't
sleeping good and again I hearthat there's a lot of people
that's been having that happento them.
I don't know if it's theweather or what it is, but yeah,
(12:23):
it's been a rough one.
Sunny (12:26):
I don't know if it's the weather or what it is, but yeah,
it's been a rough one.
Bruce (12:36):
Well, I can't tell you if I had any problems, because I
like the way I sound and I sleepgood, all right.
Well, Sunny, thank you.
I don't need to hear any morefrom you.
Hey, I'm just kidding.
Okay, hey, let's talk a littlebit about something a little bit
neater.
How's that?
A little bit of news that Ipulled up, wouldn't?
Sunny (12:57):
that be better.
Yeah, you're boring me to deathwith your sob story.
Boo-hoo, I had a problem.
Bruce (13:08):
I couldn't fix it.
Boo-hoo, oh, good grief.
Sunny (13:11):
I wasn't that bad.
Bruce (13:12):
True.
Well, you know I like to goacross the news and look for
something neat to talk about.
So I found this story in sweden.
Uh, it's actually karuna, Ithink how you pronounce that
k-i-r-u-n-a.
(13:34):
Karuna, sweden.
If I'm not pronouncing thatright, I'm sorry, I apologize,
but anyhow it.
Uh, it was a story about achurch that they're moving, and
I will have a picture of thechurch on my website, the ugly
(13:58):
quacking duckcom, and I willalso have it in my chapters.
If you have a Podcast 2.0player that you're listening to
us on, you'll be able to seethat.
Sunny (14:13):
I like how you threw that .
It'll be on my website.
Bruce (14:22):
no-transcript uh, no, but there you go, we'll.
We'll take it that way.
It helps to throw it in thereevery now and then.
Anyway, uh, that way, you know,or they know, everybody knows
that I have a, a web page right,it's the uglycrackingduckcom
(14:45):
there you go again.
Sunny (14:47):
I'll tell you, bruce, you're throwing advertising in.
Bruce (14:52):
Do you call that advertising when you're doing it
for yourself?
Sunny (14:56):
No, you just call it a bum rush.
Bruce (15:01):
No, that's not why you call that.
But anyhow, go back to the newsstory.
They are moving this church.
It was state-owned.
The church built this back in1912, I believe.
Let me pull up the informationagain this is a state-run church
(15:23):
built however you want to takethat church built, however you
want to take that um, but theyhad to move it because of the
(15:44):
state-run mining company thatwas going basically under it and
they locked the door and theystarted moving it.
Or actually they startedpreparing it to be moved and
here recently they startedmoving it and apparently the
move is taking quite a while.
(16:05):
Three miles an hour, I think.
No, that's not right.
It's a three-mile route east ofthe city to put it in its new
location and this started onMonday, august the 18th.
The week's move has turned intoa two-day highly choreographed
(16:29):
spectacle, but anyway, I thoughtit was neat.
The church is beautiful.
If you get a chance, look it up.
It's on AP News, apnewscom.
Just go in and look in thechurch that's being moved in
(16:49):
Sweden and read about it.
Apparently they're moving at124 miles.
Is that right?
No, the city's 124 miles abovethe Arctic Circle.
Miles above the arctic circle.
(17:14):
It's roughly 20 000 23 000people live there.
Wow, anyway they the statebuilt this city, this church.
I can't talk tonight.
I've been mowing all day andrunning around, took my shower,
sat down to do this podcastepisode and I'm about half tired
yes, half all right, watch thishoney.
(17:38):
Anyway, I I've seen the pictureof this church and it's
beautiful, um, it's very welldesigned and I'm glad they're
moving it because it's an.
It's a beautiful church andthey say it's a?
Um, a scenic church and there'sa lot of prayer going into it.
(18:02):
So we'll see what happens.
Hopefully they're going slowenough.
They won't tear anything up.
So hopefully they're going slowenough they won't tear anything
up.
But if you get a chance, lookat the picture, read the article
.
It's a pretty neat read.
I guess the mine that is goingto cause this church to be moved
(18:25):
dates back to 1910, and thechurch was completed in 1912.
They think the the relocationand all the stuff that goes with
it will be done at the end of2026.
(18:45):
That's a long time.
Anyhow, there you go.
I thought that was aninteresting story and I thought
it was worth covering.
Now, if you know some of theconspiracy around things of
older dates that were built, alot of people believe that these
(19:08):
older constructions was notreally built around 19, early
1900s and late 1800s, likethey're telling people, but they
were actually just moved intoand that's why they say
established a lot of timesinstead of built, because they
(19:32):
just moved into them.
They were already there and I Idon't know.
This church makes me wonder theway it looks.
Um, now the windows and stufflook newer.
They don't look like 1912churches or windows.
They look a lot newer than that.
But anyhow, there you go, gocheck it out, man, tell me what
(19:56):
you think.
It's pretty awesome lookingchurch and it's definitely not
like the churches we see here inAmerica nowadays.
It looks better than that.
Sunny (20:10):
It does look pretty neat.
I have to agree there, Bruce.
But I don't know about yourconspiracy.
If it was built already andthey moved into it in 1912, who
built it?
Bruce (20:27):
Well, there you go.
That's the conspiracy, and I'veoften wondered the same thing.
Now, a lot of people believethat old architecture was
Tartarian, which who knows whatthat was.
Some people believe that is thereign of Christ and he's
(20:49):
already came, and now we'reseeing the season of satan, and
I have to wonder if thesebuildings were angelical built,
angelic built, um, and they wasfrom the angelic system of
government, uh, prior to theflood.
(21:13):
I mean, you have to think thatthere would have been a lot of
beautiful buildings that werebuilt.
Just think of the pyramids.
That's probably where they comefrom.
And, yeah, the flood would haveremoved a lot of them, but it
would have left some too.
But who knows, that would havemeant that the flood was not as
(21:38):
far back as we're led to believe.
Who knows?
Sunny (21:46):
Yeah, you don't, that's for sure, touché.
To who?
Never mind, we'll just move onsunny.
Bruce (22:02):
All right, that sounds like a winner.
Hey, sunny.
What part of the country are webroadcast or recording from?
Sunny (22:10):
well, that's easy.
It's southern illinois, midwestright, smack dab in the middle
of somewhere well, we're notsmack dab in the middle.
Bruce (22:22):
I'm not even sure why they call it the midwest,
because if you look on a map,illinois is not really in the
mid, but that's what they say.
But we are in southern Illinoisand let's talk about the
weather a little bit.
It's been a beautiful day herein southern Illinois this Sunday
(22:42):
afternoon.
It got up to, I think, in thehigh 70s, in the high 70s, uh,
right now, uh, our weatherchannel is saying 74 degrees.
I'm still showing 76, but it'sbeautiful.
The wind's been blowing.
(23:03):
Now the wind was blowing sohard when I was mowing out there
.
The grass is dead, we haven'thad enough rain in my area and
it was blowing back in my faceand the dust.
It was rough, but it's stillbeen a beautiful day.
The wind's been blowing, it'sbeen a little bit cloudy, but
not bad at all, and it's notbeen hot.
(23:25):
The humidity's at what?
45 percent.
The air quality is 28 and rightnow they're saying the wind is
three miles per hour, but it wasa lot more earlier today, so
it's calmed down.
But I'm telling you guys, it'sbeen a beautiful week.
Uh, it's got up in the 80s, butthe humidity and being 80,
(23:48):
compared to you know, an almost100 and being 80 compared to you
know, almost 100 has made theweather a lot better.
Now, if you're in other partsof the country, it may not be
the same, but we like tellingwhat we're experiencing Now.
We also like comparing it toPhoenix Arizona.
Sunny (24:12):
So, Sunny, tell us all what it's like in Phoenix,
arizona.
Well, bruce, I don't know whatit's like, but I know what the
weather channel says it's 109degrees there.
Think about that 109.
Yeah, and it's partly cloudy.
The humidity is only 18 percent, the wind's blowing seven miles
(24:37):
an hour and the air quality 5858.
Bruce (24:45):
Wow, that's uh higher than ours.
Ours is 28 yep must be.
All that wind blowing, all thatdust yeah, or could be smoke
from all the fires, who knows.
But uh, I don't normally seethat that high there.
Uh, they're higher than we are.
(25:06):
We're at 28, but, like I said,it's been a beautiful day.
Uh, they got a extreme heatwarning in Phoenix, arizona, so
look out.
If you guys are out thereanywhere close the desert's
cooking.
Sunny (25:22):
That's a cute one.
Bruce (25:24):
Oh, I don't know about that, but it is 109 degrees.
I bet you can cook an egg onthe rock.
Sunny (25:30):
Well, let's don't find out okay, I agree.
Bruce (25:35):
All right, one more story , maybe, maybe one more.
But hey, they newly launched asatellite.
Yep, uh, it was a launch byn-i-s-a-r, that's's the joint
effort between NASA and theIndian Space Agency, isro.
(25:56):
On July the 30th, they launcheda satellite, launched it from
the India Space Center I'm noteven going to try to pronounce
where it was at, but it's inIndia.
I'm not even going to try topronounce where it was at, but
it's in India.
(26:16):
And then, two weeks later nowI'm reading this off their site
the satellite deployed anantenna reflector which spans
now here's what I'm wanting toreport 39 feet wide, the largest
ever used on a NASA mission.
Now, I wanted to report thisbefore it got too late, you know
(26:37):
, because if I wait too late toreport it, it won't be relevant
any longer.
But they're calling it.
The newly launched satellitejust bloomed and apparently it
took a a.
How long was it?
Uh, took a few days, I think,or hours.
(26:59):
Let's see the uh unfolding thesatellites boom, one joint at a
time, and then a firing, aseries of explosive bolts so
that it could be deployed andlocked into place in space.
And that took quite a while.
And uh, it's a 142 pound.
(27:26):
Yeah, that's right, 142 pound.
Yeah, that's right, 142 pound.
They put it up in space, poppedit open and let it unfold slowly
and they used motors and cablesto pull the antenna to its
final form.
And we have no idea what itlooks like.
(27:47):
They have a ready for this, anartist artist conception picture
of what it's supposed to looklike.
Yeah, so if you don't payattention to that artist
conception, you'll think you'reactually looking at the
satellite and I will also havethat picture on my website.
(28:11):
And if you again, if you arelistening to us on a 2.0
podcasting, 2.0 player, it'llshow you chapters and I try to
include chapter markers with thepictures or something to
designate what we're talkingabout.
So there you go.
(28:31):
If you're listening to that,you can find that on my podcast
or episode, I should say.
But it's a fancy looking dishsupposedly, but there again, we
have no picture of it.
Proven what they saying.
But the reason they launchedthis thing Is so it could spy On
(28:57):
what.
Well, it's going to use 3Dmovies Of changing happenings On
earth Surface.
That's what they're saying.
Anyway.
They're going to use this thingto.
It has two different receivers,or they're saying two different
, two different lenses, I thinkis what it says to see the earth
(29:25):
.
One will cut right through theatmosphere and the clouds and
look through the trees at theground, and another one will not
do as well, but it will seesomething different.
And they're saying they're justgoing to look at the earth and
(29:47):
the changes.
And if you can believe any ofthat I don't know, but it took
four hours to unfold this thingand all they're going to do is
look at the ground.
You believe that?
All right, I got a bridge inBrooklyn.
I want to sell you.
If you believe that, becauseunfortunately they don't ever
(30:10):
tell you what they're reallydoing with anything, so they
really got something up therethat's not on a balloon floating
across the earth, then thereain't no telling what they're
doing.
They're using a uh, twoaperture radars and they're
(30:30):
gonna know radars, radars.
I don't see how they're goingto get pictures from that, the
way they're describing thepictures.
Anyway, they're going to getreflections of the ground and
they're going to have highresolution images.
Now, I know some of them radarabilities can see through houses
(30:57):
, they can see what's going onin the houses and how many
people's in there and stuff.
So again, if you believethey're just going to look at
earth changes and not anythingelse.
Huh, and they're supposedlygonna be able to move this thing
around on different parts ofthe earth.
(31:17):
So there you go, a spysatellites, what it sounds like
to me, but anyway, I just wantto bring that out hey, bruce,
once you turn the light on, it'sgetting dark in here.
All right, I'll do that.
There you go, is that better,oh?
Sunny (31:35):
yeah, that's a lot better , Thanks.
Bruce (31:38):
Yeah, well, I think the sun's going down behind them
trees and I'm losing my light inhere, so, yep, it was getting a
little bit dark.
Well, I just had my cat come inhere, crawl up on my desk and
all my notes.
I took a picture.
I'll put it on my chapters, butif she hits one of my buttons
(32:02):
and my recording fails that'swhat happened I'll have to kick
it back on, but she wants to bepart of the recording.
I guess I don't have any video.
I did snap a picture, butthat's all the news we've got
today.
Now we did have the earthquakereport that we was going to do.
(32:23):
Like I said, we've been tryingto do that every seven days.
There she goes, she gets down.
I got talking about her.
She didn't like it, but we tryto do it every seven days and
it's been a rough one again thisweek.
Let me hit the highlights realquick Now.
(32:44):
If you've been following along,in the past, we've been doing a
little bit different.
We give the seven-day reportfor this year and we also gave
it for the last two years.
No, for 2019 and 2018.
So we've been trying to do the2025, the seven-day report, like
(33:05):
we always do.
Just read it off.
But we're doing the 2019 and2018 on our website, so if you
want to see that, you can uh goand look at it.
We post it usually at the sametime that the episode is
(33:25):
published and goes out.
It's just a way to keep timedown, because if we do that
whole thing on the recording, itjust takes an extra amount of
time.
So if you want to know what'sgoing on and how to how we're
doing it, and if I don't have anexplanation for you, you can go
(33:46):
back and read some of the orlisten to some of the past
episodes, or you can just emailme and I'll explain it.
You can email me with anyquestions you have.
Let's go on with it, alright?
Sunny (34:00):
Let's go on with it, Bruce.
Come on, come on.
Bruce (34:06):
Alright, show your impatience.
Sunny (34:09):
I'm just hagging you.
Bruce (34:12):
Nagging me.
Sunny (34:13):
Whatever?
Bruce (34:16):
So what we've got in the last seven days I just looked
this up before I startedrecording we had all the
magnitude earthquakes were 1,925.
And that would be 19.3% if Ifigured into 10,000.
And we had 4.5 and over wasonly 123, which gave us 6.4
(34:45):
percent of the 1925.
And then we had two 6.0 andbigger earthquakes for the
(35:08):
seven-day report one.
The first one was a 6.0 and itwas in el salvador.
And then we had a 8.0 which gotdowngraded.
Why I don't know, but it gotdowngraded to a 7.5, maybe
because it didn't have as muchuh quaking as they thought it
(35:31):
would at an 8-point.
I don't know why theydowngraded it, but this one was
in Southern Drake Passage, whichis in the ocean between South
America and Antarctica.
Apparently that passage rightin there, a lot of boats use and
it's's really rough water, butthere's not a lot of people in
(35:55):
that area, so it didn't have alot of effect.
We we really thank the fatherfor that.
But we only had two majorearthquakes which I call 6.0 and
above, which gave us a 1.6percent.
It shows a pretty closerelationship to last week.
(36:17):
So I don't know if they'llcontinue.
But go back or no, don't go back.
Just go to the uh rest of the2019 and the 2018 numbers.
The 2018 numbers there was 12yes, I said that 12, 12
(36:38):
earthquakes.
That was 6.0 and above, so youneed to look that up.
I'll get them all listed.
They'll be on that report,they'll be on my posting page so
, and if you are a subscriber tothe website, it will email you
when I post that.
But there was a lot of themback in 2018, so 2019 was only
(37:04):
what um six years ago and 2018.
No, I got that wrong.
Anyway, I'm thinking that ifthe seven-day report falls like
it normally does and ittranslates into a seven-year,
(37:25):
the next year is going to haveeven more significant
earthquakes.
That's all we got for you today, guys.
What do you think?
Sunny (37:37):
I think that's awesome.
Bruce (37:40):
I do too.
I think that's awesome.
Hey guys, to all our listeners,last week we did a little bit
different episode.
It was called the World isFalling for it Me Not so Much
and we talked about a little bitof controversy.
We spent the whole and itwasn't very long, I think it was
(38:02):
only 20 minutes.

But until then we're going toend this recording.
Hope we didn't keep it too longabout 42 minutes.
(39:06):
It'll be a little bit shortertime.
I cut out some of the longpauses and stuff.
I mean gaps.
I don't worry about the pauses,but the gaps where I didn't
answer quick enough or something.
I don't think I had any of thisrecording.
A lot of times I do, because ittakes me a minute to look stuff
(39:27):
up and I don't want you guysjust sitting out there falling
asleep like I do until I find it, but I don't think I had any of
that this time.
However, thank you for beingwith us.
If this is your first timelistening to the ugly quacking
duck podcast, let me know.
I hope you come back.

Hey, is this thing working?
Welcome to the Ugly QuackingDuck Podcast.
I'm Bruce.
Sunny (00:16):
And I'm Sunny.
Hello everybody.
Bruce (00:20):
Hello everybody.
It's a great day today.
We are recording in where Sunny.
Sunny (00:28):
In our hideout or hideaway or something like that.
Bruce (00:36):
Yeah, we are in our Midwest hideaway or hideout.
It's actually our studio, butwe like to go in there and hide
out.
Try to get a little bit ofpodcasting recording done.
It's been a busy weekend butwe're finally getting to it.
It is August the 24th 2025.
(00:58):
It's about 6.30 in theafternoon and we are trying to
record.
Today had a little bit of extratime off today or this week,
but we uh, we was off friday.
We got off work thursday early,um, and then we are off today,
(01:19):
which is sunday, the 24th.
Although having more time offdoes not help most of the time,
we ended up being busy errands,mowing grass trimming, and
I've got a lot more trimming todo.
So I've got more to do and Ihaven't got it done.
(01:41):
But I decided to come in andtake a shower and try to do a
little bit of homework to do thepodcast.
So here we are.
Sunny (01:51):
Here we are.
We are here again, and I amglad we're finally recording.
Bruce (02:02):
It's about time, bruce, you're slacking well, thanks for
telling everybody oh, you'remore than welcome well, I am, uh
, I don't think I'm slacking,but anyhow, you ever have one of
those moments in time, um, Idon't know how else to describe
(02:23):
it, but um, that's where most ofmy uh off time went.
Friday I actually was, uh.
Well, it's hard to explain whathappened, but sometime during
the week last week I noticed alittle bit of defectiveness in
(02:46):
my microphone recording and itreally bugged me.
I mean, if you've ever donesomething like that and, uh, it
annoyed you to the point whereyou couldn't quite figure it out
, but it wasn't bad enough tostop, but yet it was, if that
makes sense.
So, uh, it kind of annoyed meand I've lost.
(03:10):
I don't know why, but I wasrunning through scenarios every
time I laid down to go to sleepand it really messed up my sleep
or something else was messingit up, and that's just what my
mind went to every time.
I couldn't go to bed and fallasleep.
Anyhow, I finally come up witha 170 hertz thought.
(03:35):
So what I did is looked it upand they said if you've got a
problem with muddiness, youmight turn that up, but if
you've got it up too high, thenyou turn it down, you get rid of
some of the echo and stuff.
Boy, it wasn't very explanatorythere, so I tried a little bit
(04:01):
of both and I don't know, itjust got frustrated more.
So you know what I did.
Sunny (04:12):
I know what you did.
I was here, good grief, you gotyour old me crazy Bruce.
Bruce (04:19):
Sunny, you are crazy.
Sunny (04:21):
That's true, but anyhow you went kind of nuts there for
a couple of days.
Bruce (04:28):
Yeah, I think part of it may have been because I wasn't
sleeping good to begin with, andI think there's a lot of people
in the world the last few weekshasn't been sleeping well and I
think that's what was affectingme.
That's what was affecting me,so my mind was, you know,
(04:49):
thinking about things and itactually dropped in on that
slight problem.
I noticed and, oh, it drove mecrazy.
But anyway, I changed mics,tried out every mic I had and I
started to record with the Heilmic that I have and it does a
pretty good job, but I justdidn't quite like the sound.
(05:12):
Oh, to make a long story short,I ended up back with my PodMic
and when I was hooking it backup, I went into all the settings
to reset everything.
When I was hooking it back up, Iwent into all the settings to
reset everything and, lo andbehold, I had noticed that on my
noise canceling settingssomehow it had got moved up,
(05:46):
which caused it to cancel out alot of my voice.
So I dropped it back down to100 hertz, which I think helped
it, and I didn't notice thatweird effect that I was getting.
So I don't know when thatchanged or if I did it, or if I,
you know, advertently hit itwhen I thought I was in another
(06:06):
menu, I don't know.
But I turned it back and Ireadjusted my bass, gave it a
little bit more bass and I'mback to what I think was my
normal recording level with thismicrophone.
Normal recording level withthis microphone.
(06:30):
Uh, all around about losing aweek's well, I already lost that
sleep.
I don't think it had anythingto do with that problem.
I just think I wasconcentrating on that because I
couldn't sleep.
But anyway, you ever have oneof those moments.
I had one that, uh, went allthe way around, chased my tail,
ended back up in the same spot,but I think that I had one
(06:52):
little thing off somehow and Iturned it back down to the right
place and, lo and behold, Ithink that's working.
So there you go.
Sunny (07:05):
There you go, there you go.
Okay, bruce, now that you'vebored the whole world, wow well,
I don't.
Bruce (07:13):
Uh, anyway, I've been there and I think everybody else
has on one thing or another.
It probably wasn't a recordingmic, it was probably something
else, and I've done that beforeon my ham radio too, noticed
some weird feedback and oh, itdrove me crazy.
Sunny (07:34):
Tell them, Bruce, what you did to the computer.
Bruce (07:37):
Well, I wasn't going to tell them that, but since you
brought it up, okay, I'll letthe friends and listeners and
the supporters hear me.
But anyway, I also run Audacityon my desktop and I've got my
mixer hooked into it and Irecord on Audacity.
(07:59):
At the same time I record on mymixer.
That actually gives me an extracopy in case I mess something
up.
I usually use the mixerrecording and I put it on
Audacity later and do thepost-editing, but I do have the
(08:22):
extra recording that I just didstraight in Audacity in case
something happens.
Anyhow, I was messing aroundwith my mic and all of a sudden
I noticed there was a problemwith when you use an Audacity.
You can hit enable silentmonitoring and it will let you
(08:45):
see your mic gain or your audiogain with a meter, even if
you're not recording.
And it quit working.
It worked on outside mics.
I have a video camera hooked upalso and it worked with that
(09:05):
microphone, but it would notwork with my mixer anymore.
Unplugged the USB, put a newUSB cable on there, restarted
the computer, did all kinds ofthings and, lo and behold, it
would not work and I thought,boy, I've tore something up.
And then I was scrollingthrough through, I uninstalled
(09:27):
audacity and reinstalled it.
You know that sometimes helpsif it's jammed up and, uh, it
didn't, didn't help, didn't helpat all yeah, well, tell them
how it really goes.
Bruce, you're about ready to gocrazy actually I think I'm
(09:49):
already crazy, but this justproved how crazy I was.
So, lo and behold, after I gotthe microphone set up, I still
could not get audacity to dowhat it's supposed to do.
And as I was going throughscrolling my apps to uninstall
(10:10):
audacity, I noticed a program Ihad put on there earlier when I
was downloading another programfor editing in audacity.
But it was a program that goeson another audio program I have
(10:33):
and it was a vocal umsynthesizer.
And I thought, hey, that's anew thing, I'm going to download
that and, uh, use it later on.
And I never thought anythingabout it.
But you know what I thought?
Wait a minute, I downloadedthat, hadn't tried anything out.
I wonder if that's messing withmy audacity.
(10:54):
So I uninstalled that app and,lo and behold, I restarted the
computer and it started working.
Yay, made me have a little bitof relief, but that was a week's
worth of fighting my recordingstuff, just to come back to the
(11:15):
same old thing so what you'resaying is you didn't do any
headway of improvement, you justcome back around.
Yep, pretty much.
I don't think the audioimproved.
(11:35):
Well, it did improve.
It did improve because what Inoticed the last couple times I
recorded was gone, that littledefect in my audio.
I think it's gone.
I'll have to wait till I editand uh see if it's gone.
But so if that is improved I'mhappy, but otherwise, no, I just
(12:02):
come back all the around and itwas a week worth of frustration
.
But I think a lot of thefrustration was again I wasn't
sleeping good and again I hearthat there's a lot of people
that's been having that happento them.
I don't know if it's theweather or what it is, but yeah,
(12:23):
it's been a rough one.
Sunny (12:26):
I don't know if it's the weather or what it is, but yeah,
it's been a rough one.
Bruce (12:36):
Well, I can't tell you if I had any problems, because I
like the way I sound and I sleepgood, all right.
Well, Sunny, thank you.
I don't need to hear any morefrom you.
Hey, I'm just kidding.
Okay, hey, let's talk a littlebit about something a little bit
neater.
How's that?
A little bit of news that Ipulled up, wouldn't?
Sunny (12:57):
that be better.
Yeah, you're boring me to deathwith your sob story.
Boo-hoo, I had a problem.
Bruce (13:08):
I couldn't fix it.
Boo-hoo, oh, good grief.
Sunny (13:11):
I wasn't that bad.
Bruce (13:12):
True.
Well, you know I like to goacross the news and look for
something neat to talk about.
So I found this story in sweden.
Uh, it's actually karuna, Ithink how you pronounce that
k-i-r-u-n-a.
(13:34):
Karuna, sweden.
If I'm not pronouncing thatright, I'm sorry, I apologize,
but anyhow it.
Uh, it was a story about achurch that they're moving, and
I will have a picture of thechurch on my website, the ugly
(13:58):
quacking duckcom, and I willalso have it in my chapters.
If you have a Podcast 2.0player that you're listening to
us on, you'll be able to seethat.
Sunny (14:13):
I like how you threw that .
It'll be on my website.
Bruce (14:22):
no-transcript uh, no, but there you go, we'll.
We'll take it that way.
It helps to throw it in thereevery now and then.
Anyway, uh, that way, you know,or they know, everybody knows
that I have a, a web page right,it's the uglycrackingduckcom
(14:45):
there you go again.
Sunny (14:47):
I'll tell you, bruce, you're throwing advertising in.
Bruce (14:52):
Do you call that advertising when you're doing it
for yourself?
Sunny (14:56):
No, you just call it a bum rush.
Bruce (15:01):
No, that's not why you call that.
But anyhow, go back to the newsstory.
They are moving this church.
It was state-owned.
The church built this back in1912, I believe.
Let me pull up the informationagain this is a state-run church
(15:23):
built however you want to takethat church built, however you
want to take that um, but theyhad to move it because of the
(15:44):
state-run mining company thatwas going basically under it and
they locked the door and theystarted moving it.
Or actually they startedpreparing it to be moved and
here recently they startedmoving it and apparently the
move is taking quite a while.
(16:05):
Three miles an hour, I think.
No, that's not right.
It's a three-mile route east ofthe city to put it in its new
location and this started onMonday, august the 18th.
The week's move has turned intoa two-day highly choreographed
(16:29):
spectacle, but anyway, I thoughtit was neat.
The church is beautiful.
If you get a chance, look it up.
It's on AP News, apnewscom.
Just go in and look in thechurch that's being moved in
(16:49):
Sweden and read about it.
Apparently they're moving at124 miles.
Is that right?
No, the city's 124 miles abovethe Arctic Circle.
Miles above the arctic circle.
(17:14):
It's roughly 20 000 23 000people live there.
Wow, anyway they the statebuilt this city, this church.
I can't talk tonight.
I've been mowing all day andrunning around, took my shower,
sat down to do this podcastepisode and I'm about half tired
yes, half all right, watch thishoney.
(17:38):
Anyway, I I've seen the pictureof this church and it's
beautiful, um, it's very welldesigned and I'm glad they're
moving it because it's an.
It's a beautiful church andthey say it's a?
Um, a scenic church and there'sa lot of prayer going into it.
(18:02):
So we'll see what happens.
Hopefully they're going slowenough.
They won't tear anything up.
So hopefully they're going slowenough they won't tear anything
up.
But if you get a chance, lookat the picture, read the article
.
It's a pretty neat read.
I guess the mine that is goingto cause this church to be moved
(18:25):
dates back to 1910, and thechurch was completed in 1912.
They think the the relocationand all the stuff that goes with
it will be done at the end of2026.
(18:45):
That's a long time.
Anyhow, there you go.
I thought that was aninteresting story and I thought
it was worth covering.
Now, if you know some of theconspiracy around things of
older dates that were built, alot of people believe that these
(19:08):
older constructions was notreally built around 19, early
1900s and late 1800s, likethey're telling people, but they
were actually just moved intoand that's why they say
established a lot of timesinstead of built, because they
(19:32):
just moved into them.
They were already there and I Idon't know.
This church makes me wonder theway it looks.
Um, now the windows and stufflook newer.
They don't look like 1912churches or windows.
They look a lot newer than that.
But anyhow, there you go, gocheck it out, man, tell me what
(19:56):
you think.
It's pretty awesome lookingchurch and it's definitely not
like the churches we see here inAmerica nowadays.
It looks better than that.
Sunny (20:10):
It does look pretty neat.
I have to agree there, Bruce.
But I don't know about yourconspiracy.
If it was built already andthey moved into it in 1912, who
built it?
Bruce (20:27):
Well, there you go.
That's the conspiracy, and I'veoften wondered the same thing.
Now, a lot of people believethat old architecture was
Tartarian, which who knows whatthat was.
Some people believe that is thereign of Christ and he's
(20:49):
already came, and now we'reseeing the season of satan, and
I have to wonder if thesebuildings were angelical built,
angelic built, um, and they wasfrom the angelic system of
government, uh, prior to theflood.
(21:13):
I mean, you have to think thatthere would have been a lot of
beautiful buildings that werebuilt.
Just think of the pyramids.
That's probably where they comefrom.
And, yeah, the flood would haveremoved a lot of them, but it
would have left some too.
But who knows, that would havemeant that the flood was not as
(21:38):
far back as we're led to believe.
Who knows?
Sunny (21:46):
Yeah, you don't, that's for sure, touché.
To who?
Never mind, we'll just move onsunny.
Bruce (22:02):
All right, that sounds like a winner.
Hey, sunny.
What part of the country are webroadcast or recording from?
Sunny (22:10):
well, that's easy.
It's southern illinois, midwestright, smack dab in the middle
of somewhere well, we're notsmack dab in the middle.
Bruce (22:22):
I'm not even sure why they call it the midwest,
because if you look on a map,illinois is not really in the
mid, but that's what they say.
But we are in southern Illinoisand let's talk about the
weather a little bit.
It's been a beautiful day herein southern Illinois this Sunday
(22:42):
afternoon.
It got up to, I think, in thehigh 70s, in the high 70s, uh,
right now, uh, our weatherchannel is saying 74 degrees.
I'm still showing 76, but it'sbeautiful.
The wind's been blowing.
(23:03):
Now the wind was blowing sohard when I was mowing out there
.
The grass is dead, we haven'thad enough rain in my area and
it was blowing back in my faceand the dust.
It was rough, but it's stillbeen a beautiful day.
The wind's been blowing, it'sbeen a little bit cloudy, but
not bad at all, and it's notbeen hot.
(23:25):
The humidity's at what?
45 percent.
The air quality is 28 and rightnow they're saying the wind is
three miles per hour, but it wasa lot more earlier today, so
it's calmed down.
But I'm telling you guys, it'sbeen a beautiful week.
Uh, it's got up in the 80s, butthe humidity and being 80,
(23:48):
compared to you know, an almost100 and being 80 compared to you
know, almost 100 has made theweather a lot better.
Now, if you're in other partsof the country, it may not be
the same, but we like tellingwhat we're experiencing Now.
We also like comparing it toPhoenix Arizona.
Sunny (24:12):
So, Sunny, tell us all what it's like in Phoenix,
arizona.
Well, bruce, I don't know whatit's like, but I know what the
weather channel says it's 109degrees there.
Think about that 109.
Yeah, and it's partly cloudy.
The humidity is only 18 percent, the wind's blowing seven miles
(24:37):
an hour and the air quality 5858.
Bruce (24:45):
Wow, that's uh higher than ours.
Ours is 28 yep must be.
All that wind blowing, all thatdust yeah, or could be smoke
from all the fires, who knows.
But uh, I don't normally seethat that high there.
Uh, they're higher than we are.
(25:06):
We're at 28, but, like I said,it's been a beautiful day.
Uh, they got a extreme heatwarning in Phoenix, arizona, so
look out.
If you guys are out thereanywhere close the desert's
cooking.
Sunny (25:22):
That's a cute one.
Bruce (25:24):
Oh, I don't know about that, but it is 109 degrees.
I bet you can cook an egg onthe rock.
Sunny (25:30):
Well, let's don't find out okay, I agree.
Bruce (25:35):
All right, one more story , maybe, maybe one more.
But hey, they newly launched asatellite.
Yep, uh, it was a launch byn-i-s-a-r, that's's the joint
effort between NASA and theIndian Space Agency, isro.
(25:56):
On July the 30th, they launcheda satellite, launched it from
the India Space Center I'm noteven going to try to pronounce
where it was at, but it's inIndia.
I'm not even going to try topronounce where it was at, but
it's in India.
(26:16):
And then, two weeks later nowI'm reading this off their site
the satellite deployed anantenna reflector which spans
now here's what I'm wanting toreport 39 feet wide, the largest
ever used on a NASA mission.
Now, I wanted to report thisbefore it got too late, you know
(26:37):
, because if I wait too late toreport it, it won't be relevant
any longer.
But they're calling it.
The newly launched satellitejust bloomed and apparently it
took a a.
How long was it?
Uh, took a few days, I think,or hours.
(26:59):
Let's see the uh unfolding thesatellites boom, one joint at a
time, and then a firing, aseries of explosive bolts so
that it could be deployed andlocked into place in space.
And that took quite a while.
And uh, it's a 142 pound.
(27:26):
Yeah, that's right, 142 pound.
Yeah, that's right, 142 pound.
They put it up in space, poppedit open and let it unfold slowly
and they used motors and cablesto pull the antenna to its
final form.
And we have no idea what itlooks like.
(27:47):
They have a ready for this, anartist artist conception picture
of what it's supposed to looklike.
Yeah, so if you don't payattention to that artist
conception, you'll think you'reactually looking at the
satellite and I will also havethat picture on my website.
(28:11):
And if you again, if you arelistening to us on a 2.0
podcasting, 2.0 player, it'llshow you chapters and I try to
include chapter markers with thepictures or something to
designate what we're talkingabout.
So there you go.
(28:31):
If you're listening to that,you can find that on my podcast
or episode, I should say.
But it's a fancy looking dishsupposedly, but there again, we
have no picture of it.
Proven what they saying.
But the reason they launchedthis thing Is so it could spy On
(28:57):
what.
Well, it's going to use 3Dmovies Of changing happenings On
earth Surface.
That's what they're saying.
Anyway.
They're going to use this thingto.
It has two different receivers,or they're saying two different
, two different lenses, I thinkis what it says to see the earth
(29:25):
.
One will cut right through theatmosphere and the clouds and
look through the trees at theground, and another one will not
do as well, but it will seesomething different.
And they're saying they're justgoing to look at the earth and
(29:47):
the changes.
And if you can believe any ofthat I don't know, but it took
four hours to unfold this thingand all they're going to do is
look at the ground.
You believe that?
All right, I got a bridge inBrooklyn.
I want to sell you.
If you believe that, becauseunfortunately they don't ever
(30:10):
tell you what they're reallydoing with anything, so they
really got something up therethat's not on a balloon floating
across the earth, then thereain't no telling what they're
doing.
They're using a uh, twoaperture radars and they're
(30:30):
gonna know radars, radars.
I don't see how they're goingto get pictures from that, the
way they're describing thepictures.
Anyway, they're going to getreflections of the ground and
they're going to have highresolution images.
Now, I know some of them radarabilities can see through houses
(30:57):
, they can see what's going onin the houses and how many
people's in there and stuff.
So again, if you believethey're just going to look at
earth changes and not anythingelse.
Huh, and they're supposedlygonna be able to move this thing
around on different parts ofthe earth.
(31:17):
So there you go, a spysatellites, what it sounds like
to me, but anyway, I just wantto bring that out hey, bruce,
once you turn the light on, it'sgetting dark in here.
All right, I'll do that.
There you go, is that better,oh?
Sunny (31:35):
yeah, that's a lot better , Thanks.
Bruce (31:38):
Yeah, well, I think the sun's going down behind them
trees and I'm losing my light inhere, so, yep, it was getting a
little bit dark.
Well, I just had my cat come inhere, crawl up on my desk and
all my notes.
I took a picture.
I'll put it on my chapters, butif she hits one of my buttons
(32:02):
and my recording fails that'swhat happened I'll have to kick
it back on, but she wants to bepart of the recording.
I guess I don't have any video.
I did snap a picture, butthat's all the news we've got
today.
Now we did have the earthquakereport that we was going to do.
(32:23):
Like I said, we've been tryingto do that every seven days.
There she goes, she gets down.
I got talking about her.
She didn't like it, but we tryto do it every seven days and
it's been a rough one again thisweek.
Let me hit the highlights realquick Now.
(32:44):
If you've been following along,in the past, we've been doing a
little bit different.
We give the seven-day reportfor this year and we also gave
it for the last two years.
No, for 2019 and 2018.
So we've been trying to do the2025, the seven-day report, like
(33:05):
we always do.
Just read it off.
But we're doing the 2019 and2018 on our website, so if you
want to see that, you can uh goand look at it.
We post it usually at the sametime that the episode is
(33:25):
published and goes out.
It's just a way to keep timedown, because if we do that
whole thing on the recording, itjust takes an extra amount of
time.
So if you want to know what'sgoing on and how to how we're
doing it, and if I don't have anexplanation for you, you can go
(33:46):
back and read some of the orlisten to some of the past
episodes, or you can just emailme and I'll explain it.
You can email me with anyquestions you have.
Let's go on with it, alright?
Sunny (34:00):
Let's go on with it, Bruce.
Come on, come on.
Bruce (34:06):
Alright, show your impatience.
Sunny (34:09):
I'm just hagging you.
Bruce (34:12):
Nagging me.
Sunny (34:13):
Whatever?
Bruce (34:16):
So what we've got in the last seven days I just looked
this up before I startedrecording we had all the
magnitude earthquakes were 1,925.
And that would be 19.3% if Ifigured into 10,000.
And we had 4.5 and over wasonly 123, which gave us 6.4
(34:45):
percent of the 1925.
And then we had two 6.0 andbigger earthquakes for the
(35:08):
seven-day report one.
The first one was a 6.0 and itwas in el salvador.
And then we had a 8.0 which gotdowngraded.
Why I don't know, but it gotdowngraded to a 7.5, maybe
because it didn't have as muchuh quaking as they thought it
(35:31):
would at an 8-point.
I don't know why theydowngraded it, but this one was
in Southern Drake Passage, whichis in the ocean between South
America and Antarctica.
Apparently that passage rightin there, a lot of boats use and
it's's really rough water, butthere's not a lot of people in
(35:55):
that area, so it didn't have alot of effect.
We we really thank the fatherfor that.
But we only had two majorearthquakes which I call 6.0 and
above, which gave us a 1.6percent.
It shows a pretty closerelationship to last week.
(36:17):
So I don't know if they'llcontinue.
But go back or no, don't go back.
Just go to the uh rest of the2019 and the 2018 numbers.
The 2018 numbers there was 12yes, I said that 12, 12
(36:38):
earthquakes.
That was 6.0 and above, so youneed to look that up.
I'll get them all listed.
They'll be on that report,they'll be on my posting page so
, and if you are a subscriber tothe website, it will email you
when I post that.
But there was a lot of themback in 2018, so 2019 was only
(37:04):
what um six years ago and 2018.
No, I got that wrong.
Anyway, I'm thinking that ifthe seven-day report falls like
it normally does and ittranslates into a seven-year,
(37:25):
the next year is going to haveeven more significant
earthquakes.
That's all we got for you today, guys.
What do you think?
Sunny (37:37):
I think that's awesome.
Bruce (37:40):
I do too.
I think that's awesome.

different episode.

It'll be a little bit shortertime.
I cut out some of the longpauses and stuff.
I mean gaps.
I don't worry about the pauses,but the gaps where I didn't
answer quick enough or something.
I don't think I had any of thisrecording.
A lot of times I do, because ittakes me a minute to look stuff
(39:27):
