I'll tell you what.

Speaker 6 (04:50):
Little quiet we can crank it up and we'll we'll
get we'll get work.

Speaker 4 (04:53):
We're on the plot, we're on the cloud.

Speaker 6 (04:55):
This is a lot. I hope everybody had a glory Christmas,
A glory I totally erect and I wanted to come
back last week. Didn't happen. That's okay, we're here, We're bad.
Everything is good, and I'm not going.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
To lie to you.

Speaker 6 (05:14):
I had a great, great time. We'll make a few
adjustments here and see if this helps. I don't know
if it will or not. I have no idea what
this computer is are what the sound and everything is
even going through? Oh there we go. That's better, Jeff. Okay,
we got it all right, So turn all my speakers off.
I'll crank this up and should be good to go.

(05:37):
Oh beautiful, beautiful. All right, we figured it out. We
are live on KLR and radio. And like I said,
I'm learning new things as I go. You know what
I've learned over my life time what measly little life
I've had. And it's twenty twenty five, folks, I turned
sixty years old this year. Okay, this is crazy, but anyways,

(06:00):
I've learned over my life that if you really want
to learn something well and learn it quickly, do it
at the very very last minute. Screw it completely up,
and you'll learn it when you fix it. So welcome
to the show. We're done at twenty twenty four. We're
moving headlong into twenty twenty five. Wow, some things have something.

(06:47):
I've had some issues a spreaker so well, just a

(07:08):
glitch in the system and something went kind of weird.
Hopefully I'm back, he'll let me know. I'm sure. Yep,
there we are. There was just a little glitch. Things
just kind of walked out on me, Jeff. Anyways, hopefully
everybody had a great twenty twenty four but had agreed.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Losing me.

Speaker 6 (07:57):
Oh, now I should be back. We knew that things
are going to be a little different. We knew things
were going to be a little bumpy, and we figured
that that Democrats, like they usually do, would throw an
absolute fit. There would be riots, there would be burnings,

(08:17):
there would be things. But as of right now, everything
is smooth along that line. Now, we have very few
days until the inauguration. Now, the inauguration might be a
completely different story. If you remember, right in twenty sixteen,
the inauguration was basically DC burning down. I predict, and

(08:39):
I'm completely wrong. I picked that Washington, DC will be
completely safe this year. I predict that the usual suspects
are not going to call their minions out to burn
and destroy because it will be wadded up and thrown
in their face on the back end of a baseball bat.
I think they're afraid right now.

Speaker 8 (08:57):
I think they're.

Speaker 6 (08:57):
Afraid because, well, this president coming in has already been
there once. He knows what to expect, and he is
ready with a big stick that said that said, these
are snakes, these are there we go. Now we're back.

(09:47):
What we have had to deal with last time was
just a perpetual ubiquitous protesting, burning, looting, uh, anything they
could get ahold of. Let's folks, they were getting a
hold of a drug addict, a known drug addict, criminal
with a record sheet ten miles long. And they made

(10:07):
him a martyr, they made him a hero. They built
statues of them, just to get Donald Trump out of
the White House, no other reason. Now now we have had,
of course North the western North Carolina people who are
still sleeping intense. We'll get to that in a minute.
Now we have California burning, and of course it's climate change.

(10:30):
And of course it's Donald Trump's fault. Kay, Donald Trump's
not the president yet. Donald Trump is is what a
week and a half until he's until he's inaugurated. But
it is still somehow his fault. Even though Los Angeles
has been run by Democrats for decades, decades, and even

(10:51):
though we have pointed out several issues with Los Angeles,
like their water reserves, they had all that rang on,
they were flooding, they had all that rain. They were
crying and wailing, ooh, climate change, looking all the rain,
all the rain quit. Oh, climate change. The rain quit,
and they never did anything to fill up the reservoirs
during that massive rain, and the water that they needed

(11:15):
so very badly to put out these fires is gone.
The DEI Hires, they have running different departments, departments that
are critical to the infrastructure, critical to putting these fires out,
are incompetent collectively. Gavin Newsom and we'll have a sound
bite by him in a minute, Devin Newsom, Uh, this
bass woman, several others. They're all, you know, DEI Hires,

(11:41):
they're all, you know, equity instead of equality. They're all,
you know, uh, progressive socialist Democrats. And their system failed.
Not only did it fail, it tanked, it bottomed out.
It was the worst thing in the world. The difference
is the difference is these are They're not hillbillies. These

(12:02):
are not people that live up in the hills, dirt poor,
can't afford lawyers, can't afford to fight FEMA giving them
seven hundred and fifty dollars and kicking them out of
a hotel like they were, you know, and we'll get
to that too. They can't fight any of that. They're helpless.
They will depend on the good will of some group

(12:23):
of lawyers to take care of that they have. They're helpless,
and if it never doesn't happen, they'll they'll never get justice,
they'll never get their property back. And we'll tell you
why in a bit this this show. I'm going to
spend a good chunk of this show explaining something that
I have been putting two and two together for since

(12:43):
about the end of twenty twenty three. And I'm watching
this play out in real time with my mouth hanging
up and going, oh my god, I've accidentally stumbled up
upon this, And I guess in deep inside my mind
I've known about this. But we'll get to this too.
But anyways, I digress. These are Hollywood elites. These are

(13:06):
very wealthy people whose mansions are burning down, whose family
who were actors might have left up to their kids
who might have been child actors. These are people with money,
and these are people who all fund the Democrat Party,
especially in California. Oh, you better believe Joe Biden's going

(13:27):
to take to the airwaves right away and say, oh,
don't worry, guys, We're going to take care of you
one hundred percent for the next six months. We'll spend billions,
trying to get you right back to where you were.
You'll be just fine. I didn't hear a darn thing
like that coming out of Joe Biden's mouth when that
flood hit North Carolina. In fact, it took days for

(13:48):
him to even acknowledge that it happened. And those people
are still and let's just jump into this. Those people
are still in dire straight they're still having issues. Just yesterday,

(14:09):
I guess this came out and this might be my
internet acting up, Jeff, hopefully not. Hopefully things are straightening out.
But FEMA was getting ready to kick out hurricane survivors
out of temporary housing and Fox reported this, and this
was January eleventh, twenty twenty five. Says locals are especially

(14:33):
confused as FEMA plans to end temporary housing assistants for
about two thousand North Carolina residents on Saturday, that was yesterday,
during a snowstorm. Now they came out and said, oh,
we're gonna give you an extra twenty four hours. Oh
extra twenty four hours, thank you, thank you, that'll work
an extra twenty four hours. We're in January, the oldest
month of the year, and you're going to escort these

(14:56):
people out into the cold go live intense people in
North Carolina? Are you going to do that, mister Biden,
President Biden soon to be former President Biden to the
people in Los Angeles, No, I don't think you're going.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
To do that.

Speaker 6 (15:12):
The housing program was initially supposed to on Friday, but
FELI pushed the deadline back to Saturday now. Ryan mcclemon's
founder of volunteer group Operation Boots on the Ground in
western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee, told Fox News Digital
on Friday, I'm actually talking to several people that are
losing the FEMA vouchers. They're terrified that they're going to

(15:34):
have nowhere to stay for their families after today. But
we did find out pretty late last night that FEMA's
extending a whole whopping twenty four hours, So as of today,
they're probably out on their backsides.

Speaker 4 (15:50):
Now.

Speaker 6 (15:50):
FEMA is trying to say, no, you're not anny, do
you that we're not We would never do something like that.
Are you kidding me? But they're doing it time. Every
time it opens its mouth when it comes to western
North Caa and Tennessee, they lie and he keep getting
found out called out and they would love it. They
would absolutely love it. I get the feeling that the
FEMA leaders that you know, not the people with the

(16:11):
boots on the ground over there. I'm sure some of
those people are in good faith trying to help. But
I'm telling you right now, I'm sure there's a lot
of bureaucrats, Democrat bureaucrats at the very very top of
FEMA who would love for this story to disappear out

(16:31):
of the news. In fact, they're probably salivating right now
because of the Los Angeles fires, because it's going to
take some of the pressure off them, and Los Angeles
shining city right there in the middle of utopia, of
socialist utopia California, and they're going to be able to
just show the world that they can rebuild it unlimited funds.

(16:55):
The way I see it, is this the difference the
reaction that we are going to see in the next
few weeks. The reaction, the difference of reactions between North
Carolina and Los Angeles is going to say everything about
the Biden administration. Telling you right now now that said,

(17:21):
I'm not putting down any of the people who fell
victim to either or any of the catastrophes, whether it
be the floods, whether it be hurricanes. I don't care
if you're the farthest left communist on a planet, if
you're a house burnt down in California because of the
stupidity of your government, I would like to see if

(17:44):
we're going to spend, if we have to spend American
tax dollars, I would rather go to building your house
than go to a proxy war in Ukraine or go
to some third world country that wants to cut my
head off because of my beliefs. Because I'm a Christian.
If I have to pay taxes, that's where I wanted
to go. Some of you might not agree with me, so,

(18:04):
I mean, you might be offended by what I'm saying.
But where we want to take care of Americans first?
And what is so wrong with America first? What is
so wrong with America first? When you're an American. If
I was a German, you know what my philosophy would be,
Germany first. If I was raining, you know what my
philosophy would be. I ran first. If I was Russian,

(18:25):
you know what my philosophy would be, Russia first. You
know why, because if I have to pay taxes into
a government system. I want the benefit of that money
being taken from my paycheck. I don't want billions of
dollars going overseas and mysteriously disappearing into never never Land.

(18:46):
I want that money coming back to me. If I
have a flood that takes my house down a river,
or if I have a wildfire that burns my house
to the ground, there you have it. And I don't
care who you vote for. I don't care what religion
you are. I don't care anything about you. If you're

(19:08):
in this country legally, and you're a citizen of this country,
and you pay taxes, something like this happens. They ought
to just suspend money going anywhere else in the whole
world and focus right here on the United States rebuilding
what we have to have. I'm sick and tire. Nobody
else comes to our defense. I don't see China rushing
billions of dollars over here to help the people in

(19:28):
North Carolina rebuild. Now, they might in Los Angeles, because well,
they own a lot of it. But I say all
this because I want you to hear Gavin Newsom's response
to this fire. I bookmarked this because this is going

(19:49):
to be what I'm talking about tonight. In twenty twenty three,
late twenty twenty three, I was involved. I attended a seminar.
I attended an exercise supposedly a leadership exercise. The person

(20:09):
who put this exercise on had a special job and
a special thing in life. He was a policy maker.
Not just a policy maker advisor. He was a risk
management policy advisor. And I want you to be aware

(20:29):
of what's going on the reason I'm going down this
rabbit hole is I want you, my dear listener, to
be informed. I want you to be in the know
that there is things, there are things going on right
now that might not be what the people of North

(20:49):
Carolina want, might not be with the people of Florida wants,
might not be with the people even of California want,
as blow as they are, might be working against them.
I want you to listen to Gavin Newsom in this interview.
This is an interview. I'm assuming it's CNN because it
just looks that derelict and staged. But I want you

(21:11):
to listen to Gavin Newsom in this interview.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
Here we go.

Speaker 6 (21:13):
Let me just jump back here. Stop this right here,
press the buttons turn the volume up and here we go.

Speaker 7 (21:22):
Well, of course, the next several years, Los Angeles will
be host to the World Cup and then the Super
Bowl and then the Olympics. With this rebuilding effort needing
to take place, is l A going to be ready
for all of those vobal events?

Speaker 5 (21:35):
My humble position, and it's it's and it's it's not
a newsom. You're not humbles being naively optimi. Those humble
is for the only reinforces near the imperative, moving quickly
doing in the spirit of collaboration, cooperation.

Speaker 6 (21:47):
This is also in the United States.

Speaker 5 (21:49):
Donald Trump, to his credit, was helpful in getting the
Olympics to the United States of America to get it
down here in LA.

Speaker 6 (21:56):
We thank him for that.

Speaker 5 (21:57):
This is an opportunity for him to shine, for this country,
to shine, for California, in this community, to shine the
opportunity with all of that uh and all that opportunity
and that pride and spirit that comes.

Speaker 6 (22:09):
Are you feeling that, Donald Trump? You're feeling those lips
in your butt right now? My god.

Speaker 5 (22:13):
Anyways, not just hosting those three iconic games and venues,
but also the opportunity I think to rebuild at the
same time, and that's why we're already organizing a Marshall plan.
We already have a team of looking and reimagining LA
two point oh.

Speaker 1 (22:27):
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.

Speaker 6 (22:28):
Wait, make sure every way wait wait wait, wait wait wait,
you're already organizing a Marshall plan. Did you hear that?
You hear that? A Marshall plan.

Speaker 5 (22:42):
We already have a team of looking and reimagining LA
two point oh, And we're.

Speaker 6 (22:46):
Making already have a team reimagining LA two point oh.
Are you hearing this? Are you hearing this? You're already
had You already have a team. Imagine you have people
and I'm gonna I'm gonna tell you what this means
in a minute. You already have a team reimagining. The

(23:07):
fire isn't even under control yet, and you already have
a team reimagining LA two point oh. Go ahead, Gavin,
show us your butt.

Speaker 5 (23:20):
I think a Marshall plan. We already have a team
of looking and reimagining LA two point oh. And we're
making sure everyone's included, not just the folks on the
coast of people here, Yeah, that we're ravaged by this disaster.

Speaker 7 (23:32):
You just said you're organizing a Marshall plan for the
rebuilding of California.

Speaker 6 (23:35):
What is that marshall for? Well, it's communism, of course,
that's what it is. It's communism. They're going to rebuild
the California. They're gonna rebuild Los Angeles to represent Moscow.
That's my that's my thinking. Anyways, go ahead, Gavin.

Speaker 5 (23:53):
Sm We're just starting to lay out. I mean, we're
still fighting these fires. So we're already talking to city leaders.
We're already talking to civic leaders. We're already talking to
business leaders or nonprofits. We're talking about labor leaders. We're
starting to organize how we can put together a collection
of individuals on philanthropy for recovery, how we can organize
the region, how we can make sure that we are

(24:15):
seeking federal assistance for.

Speaker 6 (24:18):
That means you and I are going to have to
pay for it, That's what that means. That means you
and I, who don't live in California will be paying
for this disaster. Okay, I really don't mind paying. I mean,
I've already personally donated money and clothing and supplies to
North Carolina. Personally, I even loaded it on the truck
along with a semi truck full of other things. Okay,

(24:40):
but this guy is saying, no, we're going to seek
federal ef You know, California is supposed to be one
of the one of the wealthiest states in the Union.
Though they want you to pay for this. You're you're
on the hook, folks. Sorry, Okay, go ahead, Gavin Shosher.

Speaker 5 (24:52):
But how we can make sure that we are seeking
federal assistance for the Olympics more broadly, also federal assistance
for the recovery efforts, and how we can galvanize the
community with folks that love this community to really develop
a mindset so that at scale we're dealing with the

(25:13):
scope of this tragedy and responding to it at scale
with efficiency. Like the executive Order, I talked about time
value of delivering projects, addressing building codes, addressing permitting issues,
moved to rebuilding and being more resident.

Speaker 7 (25:29):
I gotta wishes several years Los Angeles will be hosted
to I don't.

Speaker 6 (25:33):
Want to hear you anymore. Okay, So there you have it.
Gavin Newsom number one already has a team. Now let
me tell you what that means. Gavin Newsom has had
a team. Gavin Newsom has put together this team a
long time ago. This team is reimagining LA two point zero.

(25:54):
This team has been reimagining LA two point zero for
quite some time. My guess is the Obama years. That's
how long they have been reimagining LA two point zero. Now,
I will also tell you this that I suspect that
there is also a team in North Carolina, western North Carolina,

(26:17):
but North Carolina, in the capital of North Carolina, who
is reimagining where the flood occurred two point zero. And this,
my friends, is what I want to get to tonight.
This policymaker that I happened to encounter back at the

(26:40):
end of twenty twenty three, Okay, I want a little contest.
In this little contest, I received a book by him.
I'm not going to mention his name. If you want
to know dm me, I'll give you the name of
the book. But this is called the Ostrich Paradox. Now

(27:01):
we assume according to this and it starts out good.
All these books start out really good, because they you know,
the left loves incrementalism. It all starts really good. All
these disasters, a lot of these could have been avoided.
And he goes through all of this logical. I don't
know the things that he has studied in his I'm
assuming doctorates. I know he had a doctorates, and him

(27:22):
and another gentleman wrote this book and he goes through
all these biases that keep us from changing our habits,
and we keep putting ourselves in danger. And at the
end of the book, I want you to I'm going
to read something to you right here. I'm not going
to read all of it, but I want to read.
It's a thin book. It's it's like a day read,

(27:43):
two day read for me because I like to absorb
what i'm reading. And he means he's he's concluding this book. Now,
this person is a policy advisor. If you want to
know why when something happens out of the blue, a
two thousand page law is all of a sudden plopped

(28:03):
down into the anals of Congress for us to vote
on so we can find out what's in it. It
comes from people like this who already have these policies written.
They just have to fill out a few forms and say,
here you go, mister politician, here's the policy. All you
have to do is get this past trust me on this.

(28:24):
So I'm going to he goes through all these biases
that keep putting us since the beginning of time, that
has been putting us into catastrophes way, and how we
can get out of it through policy. And this is
what he says. This is the almost the end of
the book. So we're naturally led to protective decisions by

(28:47):
the latter three of our six major biases. These biases
are inertia, simplification, and hurting such as well, there's more too,
but such decisions and environments might be marked by four
major features. Now let me read this again, so I'm
perfectly clear. We are naturally led to protective decisions by

(29:08):
the latter three of our six major biases, inertia, simplification,
and hurting. Now these are you know, my degree is
an organizational leadership. So I've studied these biases and this
is what I've actually some of the things. I'm not
unfamiliar with any of this. But he focuses on inertia, simplification,

(29:30):
and hurting. So he says such decisions, such decision environments
might be marked by four major features. One he's talking
about change. This is a change that this person, this
team that wrote the books wants for you, not him
you one, well enforced regulations and standards. This is the

(29:52):
idea that people have difficulties seeing the benefits of voluntary
investment in the long term. Residential safety is hardly a
new one, and this forms the basis of the most
widely adopted protective measures, well enforced regulations and standards by
either the private or public sector that ensure safety with

(30:13):
any violations subject to penalties or fines. Okay, I'm not
going to read the rest of it, but what is that?
What does that translate to bureaucracy? Yes, more bureaucracy. It's
not like we don't have enough. We need protected from ourselves,
so we need more bureaucracy. And let me know in

(30:36):
chat what you think about more bureaucracy. Number two zoning ordinances.
One of the more vexing problems facing policymakers after major
catastrophes is whether to permit reconstruction and areas that have
been damaged. Okay, I'm going to read this to you again.

(30:57):
I want you to absorb this into your gray matter,
into your skin, into your very essence. One of the
more vexing problems facing policy makers after major catastrophes, which
is what we just had is whether to permit reconstruction
in areas that have been damaged. Now, this is number two.

(31:21):
And remember this guy goes to Lancing, our capitol in Michigan.
He goes to Washington, DC. He's a very important person.
He advises the politicians on the policies, and one of
them is whether to permit reconstruction areas that have been damaged.

(31:42):
My god, we need protecting from ourselves. We're stupid, little
unwashed masses. Number three and I hope you're listening to this.
Number three buy out for relocating homes. And he goes
on to say, one tool for combating this tendency to

(32:04):
rebuild in areas prone to recurrent losses is buy back
programs that award owners with cash for destroyed properties on
conditions that the lots not be rebuilt. Guys, guys, I
bought this in twenty twenty or I won this in
twenty twenty three, twenty twenty three, And what is he

(32:30):
talking about right here? Remember Gavin Newsom saying we already
have a team in place to take care of this problem,
reimagining Los Angeles two point Oh okay, I'm on number
three of what this team is probably doing right now.
I'm on number three of what this team its counterpart
in North Carolina is probably doing right now. These are

(32:54):
the policy advisors. I think it goes on to say,
number four, long term tax and stimps. Okay, let's focus
on number three again. Okay, the buy back for relocating homes.
Number one, buy back, mister government, you didn't sell it
to me in the first place. Number two, mister government,
you're not going to give me the money plus interest

(33:16):
plus appreciation of that property when you buy it back.
It's just like quote gun buybacks unquote. It's the same philosophy.
Guns are hurting people, so we have to buy them back. Well,
you didn't sell them to me. And not only that,
but you're mentally unstable, mister government as a whole, so
you don't need a government. I have done a background

(33:38):
check on the government. You don't need my gun because
you're all nuts, so you don't get to buy it.
And you didn't sell it to you anyway, so you
don't get to buy it back. I continue long term
tax incentives. A final example of how communities might encourage
forward looking building practices is to the provision of long
term tax incentives. Much in the same way that cities

(34:01):
often use tax abatements to encourage development of blighted areas.
Abatements and possibly surcharges can be used to steer developments
away from high risk barrier islands to safer areas farther
in land. Steer guide dictate LA two point zero, North

(34:25):
Carolina two point zero. Are you getting it yet?

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Folks?

Speaker 6 (34:29):
Are you getting it? There are people out there whose
whole lives and these people do believe, they believed on
these two guys, great guys. The one I met, great guy, friendly,
we talked. I do believe he had a basic understanding
of who I was and what I represented. We didn't

(34:53):
talk politics. And these guys do believe in their hearts
that they are the good guys and they're saving the
world by guiding you, guiding you into things that you
may not want to do. Now, North Carolina, they had
one flood in one hundred years. One hundred years. I
don't call that high risk. It does happen, But does

(35:19):
it dictate moving everybody out of that valley never to
populate it again. Does it dictate the government giving you
pinis on a dollar for your property, a booting you
to the curb in Los Angeles? Does it dictate and
they're going to have a harder time in LA because
these are rich Democrats. Does it dictate you moving all

(35:40):
the people out of the hills? Even though that wildfire
was not caused by quote climate change on quote, that
wildfire was caused by arsonists. We're finding out more and more,
just like the last round of California fires were step
by and now there's all kinds of videos coming out
of people setting fires. Did they set the original ones?
I don't know, maybe not, probably not. No clue. But

(36:05):
here's the thing you need to be advised. This is
one person, actually this is two people risk management policy advisors.
There are probably assumedly hundreds hundreds of policy advisors just

(36:26):
like this guiding you, guiding you, dictating where you can
and cannot build, encouraging policy to the lawmakers. You want
to know where your two thousand page laws come from.

(36:46):
Every time something comes up, there you go, we're gonna
take a short break. We're gonna do a little commercial.
When we come back, we're gonna carry on. I promise,
not quite as ranty. I shouldn't make promises I can't keep.

We are back. It's Alan Ray Sunday Night with Alan Ray.
I almost id'd. I almost said my call sign. Oh
my gosh. I mean, you know, in ham radio, you
gotta you should technically id every ten minutes. That's the
FCC regulation. Of course, I haven't seen one of the
OBESFCC lard butts, get out of their chair and come

(39:57):
find anybody for not doing it. We like to play
by the rules. Speaking of that, and I'm done ranting
about California, North Carolina, Okay, and we are going to
ran a little bit about some things that disappeared out
of the media. And I think that I think the
media is really really happy they disappeared. You know, every

(40:19):
once in a while, I think I think they get,
you know, the media, the legacy media, mainstream media, whatever
you want to call it, I called the Democrat mouthpiece
media paint themselves into a corner and when something like
the fire in California happens, they almost breathe a sigh
of relief because all of the lies and misinformation they've

(40:43):
told up to that point disappear. And we'll talk about
that in just a minute about stories that have disappeared.
Let's talk ham radio. This is my and you've never
heard my show before. I'm a ham radio operator. I
have been since twenty twenty, since COVID hit. In fact,
I was studying for my license when COVID hit and
I and when they shut everything down, I actually had

(41:05):
to find a place that was still testing so I
could get tested and get my tech license, and then
I got my general license. I don't know if I'm
gonna get anything other than my general I really don't
care to the eggheads do the you know, the people
actually build radios and filters and all that crap. They
get their advanced and I don't have a problem with that,

(41:26):
and I may do it someday because it opens up
more bands. But I'm really really happy just playing around
with my hundred watts and one hundred and thirty two
foot wire and I'm playing with a couple of digital
modes and well, and I'll get with Jeff, and Jeff
hopefully he's got enough patience to teach this old dog

(41:47):
some new tricks, because I'm gonna try some video here
up and coming soon and you're not gonna see my
ugly face. You don't need to. I don't want you to,
because you know, you never know, and i'd be picking
my nose while I'm, you know, trying to do this stuff.
I might be naked right now. Do you want to
see that? I don't think so. Anyways, I bought a

(42:13):
b Tech UV Pro. Of course, Radioity makes a version
of it. And there's another manufacturer that makes a version
of this exact same radio. It's exact same radio. They
just somebody else stamp their stuff on it. And this
radio is one hundred and sixty bucks and it comes
with APRS, and it comes with a firmware update. And

(42:37):
the new firmware update is absolutely phenomenal. Now, Rex Rex,
he bought that, he bought that radio. He says, I
lost interest in the radio thing. It's hard, so I quit. Welcome,
Welcome to AM radio. I can't tell you how many
people have done that. Oh man, Rex, I have so

(43:01):
many radios around here, and what did I do? I
bought another one, but this one has APRS. APRS basically
is a built in GPS into the radio. Now, a
lot of people spend their time saying, well, I don't
want GPS tracking me. Well, there are times where it
could be useful to have GPS tracking you. If you're
in the hills or in the woods up north, hiking

(43:22):
or something like that. GPS tracking you could be a
good thing because if your friends, your ham radio friends
are on their computers, they can bring up the APRS
website and they can see right where you are. Everybody
can see where you are, but they can see right
where you are if you're doing something crazy out there

(43:44):
doing things. It's good stuff. But let me tell you
one more thing about this radio. This UV pro combined
with a cell phone or a tablet, and I have
found the tablet is much easier to use. And a
program called woe ad which is win link for Android.

(44:05):
Today I sent emails out using just this little handheld
radio and a tablet that hooked to it by Bluetooth.
The latest firmware has what they call KISSTNC, which is
basically a little program that allows it. It's a modem
for all practical purposes. It's a modem. If if your

(44:28):
gen X you remember dial up. It sounds just like
dial up. It sounds just like dial up. It allows
you to send and it's as slow as dial up.
It allows you to send emails on the run where
there's no no cell phones, no hope for anything like

(44:48):
internet access. Of course, I can already see that it's
days are limited because thanks to Elon Musk. But you
never known that's going to go away too, And it's
fun to hook And let me just explain this. I'll
do a layman's term explanation. Wind Link is basically you
can either do it person to person. So in other words,

(45:09):
if you're a mile away and a handheld will transmit
a mile, no problem. Digital on handheld probably more. And
if if there's a clear flat area and somebody's up
on a hill or something, it'd be a couple, you know,
three four, five miles, ten miles. You know, it's all
line of sight in two meter and seventy centimeter. But
what it allows you to do is send emails via

(45:33):
wind Link, which is a program that you know allows
you to send transmissions radio transmissions that include emails. And
you can send these emails if you're using you know,
if you're hooking to a digitpeter a repeater, and these
repeaters are hf uhf VHF, I can get on my

(45:56):
big radio, and I can send one of these emails
all the way to California and have it transmit to
my kids in Grand Rapids, Michigan. No, so, I hope
you're getting the vision of this. If the proverbial doo
doo hits the fan in this area, there is no
you know, like like in North Carolina, like in Florida,

(46:17):
deer in the hurricanes, and wind Link played a big
role in those areas. I can get on a small
hf rig five hundred miles away, link into a wind
Link repeater, send my kids email saying hey, I'm okay.
And now they're not encrypted. You can't send personal information,

(46:38):
you can't transfer money. I wouldn't. Well, anybody can get
on and read anybody's messages. But you can see the
value that you can send something saying hey I'm here,
I'm okay, you know here I am. And if you're
a Ham radio operator, they are what they call wind
Link Wednesdays where they just practiced this. Well, now I

(47:00):
can sit here and hear in my little home, which
the power goes out all the time. We're expecting ice
rains soon after this show is done. I can send
emails through the repeater down in Toledo and Arbor over
by Monroe. I can send emails to them if I
don't have any Internet access at all, and it'll still

(47:23):
get to my kids through wind link through the radio.
It good travels to the radio. Or if you have
two people that both have this, and you know, my
other laptop hooks to the main wind link thing. But WOAD,
which is when link br Android has a nice little program,
really easy to use, very stupid simple to use, and

(47:45):
I can send messages and they can send them back.
Now I can do the same thing for APRS. APRS
allows you to send some messages too, So if you've
got two ham radio operators using APRS and they're a
couple of miles away from each other, they can text
each other, can send messages to where they are, what
they're doing, whatever, and it gets through even if there's
noisy conditions. Kind of neat stuff. Just letting you know.

(48:10):
And also I feel like I'm I feel like I
should win the Nobel Peace Prize. Now I'm just talking
smack here because during Christmas break I bought one of these.
It's a pretty decent FMI. I made sure I got
the best one I could for the bang for the buck.
It's a bluetooth transmitter, not receiver transmitter. It will receive,

(48:35):
but I've got it set for transmit. And now I've
got these Orlando Go speakers that just drape over your neck.
They hang on your shoulders. They're not headphones. Headphones after
a while get on my nerves. Headphones don't allow you
to hear what's going on around you. All you hear

(48:55):
is what's in the headphones. These speakers, you can go
out walking and I use them for extresses. See them
from when I'm out walking or whatever. And they're hanging
on my shoulders, and they got really good sound. And
you walk around and you've got music playing. It's all cool. Well,
I took this transmitter, I plugged it into my big
Jazu FT seven and I hooked it up to these

(49:17):
Orlando speakers, and my god, I could hear things that
I've never heard before, stuff that was way down into
the noise floor and the static I could hear people talking.
Made so many more contacts. And I a friend of mine,
Mark and Georgia was telling him about it, and he
goes way way wait wait, email me to let me
know what you have, so I did, and he's like,

(49:38):
that's ingenious. Can you talk through him too? I was like, no,
I haven't figured that out yet, but I'm gonna try.
I'm gonna see if I can make it where I
can get an adapter through DX engineering that allows me
to talk and listen just through voice operations. So it's
kind of neat. And yes, I've we got Samsung of

(50:00):
your buds two rex that do that same thing. It's
got passed through you can hear it. But still having
something hanging on your neck, you know, hanging around your
neck that you can hear, and that stuff in your
ears or over your ears. To me, it's just there's
days where I'd rather have that. It's just a little
less annoying. Plus with this, uh this bluetooth, I can
get a walk around the house, I can still hear things.

(50:23):
Kind of neat. So anyways, yeah, we got a little
bit more ten minute, We got about ten minutes to go. Oh,
let me tell you what's going on in Michigan right now.
There's a few things. Number One, the DNR, along with
Grudge got busted. People are getting tired of their crap

(50:50):
and surely they'll learn from this.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
Surely you can't be serious.

Speaker 2 (50:53):
I am serious, and don't call me surely.

Speaker 6 (50:57):
In Galored, Michigan. This is last week. This was right
after the first of the year Galard, Michigan spell. The
Michigan lawmakers are expressing outrage about plans to lease four
hundred and twenty acres of state forest land they were planning.
And this is in Otsego County up by Gaillard. Woodland,
hunting land, land where eagles, bald eagles fly, land, where

(51:20):
deer live, land where there's fox and raccoons, and you
name it. Any kind of animal you think of that
exists in the state of Michigan are probably in these woods.
Four hundred and twenty acres. The Department of Natural Resources
in Michigan, under the directorship of Gretchen Whitmer, Governor Grutz Whitmer,
we're going to level this four hundred and twenty acres

(51:43):
and build what a solar farm. Well, the people in
Gaillard didn't take kindly to that. They rose up, they
hired lawyers, they went in and they said, what, no,
you're not going to do that. Gailored area exists because
people hunt. Gaylored makes its money off people hunting people

(52:09):
going up there, deer hunting and spending their money in
that area, just like Gretch wanted to wants to tear
out a thousand acres right in my backyard to build
another one of her planet heating solar farms. Come to

(52:31):
find out she was doing this all over the state.
And now people are awaken. Now, people are fighting back now,
and I forget shame on me for not getting this number.
But there's several, several The list of counties suing the

(52:52):
state is growing substantially. They don't want these solar farms.
What I'm not seeing from our dear governor his plans
to take down all of them dilapidated warehouses up in
Detroit and build solar farms there, and plans to build

(53:17):
canopies over the top of these. Just thousands and thousands
and thousands of acres of parking lots in Detroit, Flint, Saganaw, Kalamazoo,
Grand Rapids, Saganaw, Muskegon, thousands of acres of parking lots,
building canopies with solar panels over the top of them,

(53:39):
right in the cities where they use the most electricity. No, No,
he wants to destroy farmland, destroy woodland, destroy nature. Where
are they gonna put solar parking lots and lancing? In fact,
I think they should just level Lancing and just put
up all the solar panels there. Just tear down. They

(54:00):
don't need to meet there. They can meet in a
VFW hall somewhere every couple of weeks to run the state.
Why tear out nature to put these stupid solar panels
up at my antisolar No, but I'm a realist. Solar
is only good to enhance the electric grid, not run it.

(54:26):
It is not and it never will be a primary
source of power unless some nerd somewhere can figure out
a way to get solar panels more than thirty percent efficient.
And when you're in Michigan, we haven't seen the sun.
I think we've seen the sun maybe an hour in
the past month. These people are idiots, they're moras. There's

(54:51):
a small solar farm not too far from here already.
And here's what cracks me up. The solar panels are
facing due east. They're facing straight east. And I commented
to my wife today as we drove by, to say,
they can't be active. They can't be They should be
following the sun they're facing due east. They're not doing

(55:13):
anybody any good. The solar panels have to be facing
right at the sun at about a thirty degree angle,
depending on the time of the year. I'm not stupid
when it comes to solar panels. I have solar panels.
I use them to charge different things, batteries and stuff
like that. I know how they work, and I know
when they don't work. And Michigan hasn't seen the dang

(55:34):
sun in over a month. So now there's kickback. Now
there's pushback, and now that Republicans have taken back the House,
at least we can put pressure on them to stop
this moron from destroying what really brings people to Michigan,

(55:57):
and that's it's not Detroit. It's not it's not those areas.
The people don't come here for those places. Although lately,
I'll admit coming to Detroit to see the Lions play
has become a thing. God bless them, man. I hope
they go all the way this year. They deserve it.
I'm not gonna lie, but I'm not gonna get off track.

(56:18):
People come here to go up into these woodlands, to
go up into these wetlands, to hunt, to fish. That's
what Michigan is all about. Nobody sees Michigan outside of Michigan.
Nobody really sees it like that. We have some of
the best beaches. I will put our beaches on the
west side of the state up against California beaches any

(56:39):
day during the summer. There's some of the most beautiful
beaches you've ever been. And I've been to California beaches.
I was like, okay, whatever, And they don't have things
in there that'll bite your leg off. That's the best part.
And they're fresh water, so you get actually, if you
get some in your mouth, it's like, it's not so bad.
And if that's not the I'm gonna leave you with this.

(57:03):
And this is just an indictment on the whole lancing
thing because this is actually and I'm finding it. I
did the research, and I'm gonna call strikes when i'm
our balls and strikes when I can. This is actually
a Republican plan that got put off for five years
but could have been derailed, could have been taken off
the books, but no, it was passed. And that was

(57:23):
the cage free chicken law. I went to the East
Store day and I happened to notice that there were
absolutely no eggs to be had in that store, no
fresh eggs. There were pretty packaged hard boiled eggs. There's
a few other things. Eggs are gone. This is the result,

(57:50):
the direct result, and they're trying to tell us it's not.
But ten days ago, there was no problems here. What
happened was with the cage free chicken law, or it
went into effect at the beginning of the year. Michigan
egg manufacturers cannot have and raise chickens in cages anymore.
This is supposed to be more humane if you and

(58:13):
this is only the people who have three thousand chickens
and more industrial chicken farming well as people do. A
lot of the manufacturers did not comply, didn't then, and
Michigan won't allow eggs in here without having cage free chickens.

(58:35):
And a lot of people cannot supply places like Meyer,
places like Walmart, places like Kroger, they can't supply them
because they are cage chickens. And because of that, now
we have an egg shortage. Great job, and it's not
just Grets this time. It's grets. It's the Michigan Democrats,

(58:58):
it's the Michigan GOP who had five years to change this,
five years to get these manufacturers ready, they did nothing,
And now we don't have aches. I do because I
can just walk down the street and buy some and
they's still pretty reasonable priced. Government saving us from ourselves.

(59:18):
God bless the government. I bet there was a whole
bunch of policymakers, just like in this book the Ostrich paradox,
saving us from ourselves, dely guiding people away from things
that will harm them. So the government doesn't have to
spend so much money on the unwashed masses. We can
send more money over to the third world countries who

(59:39):
hate us and want to nuke us. And Rex not
even kiddingman. My wife has something against chickens. I don't
know what, but maybe this is the straw that breaks
the camels back. I've been wanting to get some. She
has some problem with them, But I think this is
going to help me fulfill my goals of being just

(01:00:02):
a little bit more self sufficient. Now all I got
to do is walk out back, like two hundred yards
away from it. I could see the chicken coop from here,
so if I really needed some, I can just go
get some and just leave a note on the door
with a couple of bucks for the people to down
the road. They wouldn't even mind because I take care
of their house all the time, so I'm not too

(01:00:24):
upset about this, and they do supply me. But that's
what's going on in the state of Michigan, and it's
going to happen all over the place. And it's because
of people who, out of the what they think is
the goodness of their heart, are guiding your policies. You
don't get to make these policies. And if you ever

(01:00:45):
wonder why, out of the blue when a problem arises
and out of the blue, like twenty four hours later,
two thousand page policies gets slapped into Congress and voted
in rushed through, we ever wonder why Gavin Newsom can
sit there and say, well, we've already got a team
reimagining LA two point zero, a team that's been doing

(01:01:07):
this and we're ready to go. It's like, what do
you mean you're ready to go? When did you get
this team? And he tells you all the people he's
got dragged into this team. When he tells you something
like this, no, in your heart of arts know, in
your mind that there are people out there that live
to gently guide you the way they want you to go. Friends,

(01:01:29):
that's not freedom. That's not freedom of choice. That's not
freedom to be an individual. That's authoritarianism. That's totalitarianism. That's
being gently guided, which means bureaucracies, which means more government,
which means more taxes, which means more policies, more procedures,

(01:01:53):
more paperwork. Every time something like this happens and your
house gets floated a mile and a half down a
river and you get seven hundred and fifty dollars after
applying eighteen times to try to get something to feed
your wife in four kids, I want you to remember
what we spoke about today. Now there is no off

(01:02:13):
the rails. There might be. Rick's probably sitting there getting
fired up listening to this right now. So there's no
America off the rail tonight. That's why I went a
little bit over. Jeff did such a great job on
The Lost Wander tonight. Man. He you know, for somebody
that was really apprehensive about actually going live, he's killing it.

(01:02:33):
He's gone way beyond me, that's for sure. Man. I'm
just looking at him, going, dude, you just kill it.
