Speaker 1 (00:11):
The Chat Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (00:13):
The government is still shut down as we move into
what twenty seven days now of the government being shut down.

Speaker 3 (00:23):
That's crazy. I gotta be honest, got that one wrong.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
I thought there would be some sort of workaround, much
quicker than what has happened.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
But the reality is it isn't. And here we are.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
Everyone's worried that, you know, they're not going to be
able to be their families.

Speaker 5 (00:45):
Federal workers who've been furloughed and fired during the shutdown
are now joining lines at food banks which were already
strained by high grocery prices.

Speaker 2 (00:55):
Yeah, already prices are high. And we can sit here
talk about inflation all we want. The reality is inflation
is I don't know where inflation's at. Just like with Biden,
I don't think we always get the real story and
everything and the numbers will always been manipulated. Both sides

(01:15):
do it. They've always done it. There are some things
that are down and some things that are up. But
right now the government is shut down, and that is
a serious issue for a lot of people out there
because it's not just and I want to remind everybody
it's not just about the people that work for the government.
So many people contract for the government, and they're seeing

(01:36):
their business being tested big time.

Speaker 6 (01:39):
There's talk of Republicans possibly using a so called nuclear
option in the Senate in the stalemate that would allow
US spending bill to pass with a simple majority instead
of sixty votes. But now the pressure is growing because
on November first, that food assistance will be cut off.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Don't do it. I've said it, I'll say it over
and over again. I know that Fetterman wanted the Republicans
to do it. Here's the problem with that. The many
you do the nuclear option, it becomes everybody's opportunity to
do the nuclear option. So when you're not in power,
the Republicans will watch as the Democrats use the nuclear option,

(02:19):
and in doing so, it is going to become an
absolute nightmare because now what you're gonna have are massive swings.
And that's what you saw with the judges. So what
you look at when you see the judges is they've
decided Harry Reid to do the nuclear option back in
the day, and Chuck Schumer said, you're going to rude

(02:40):
this day, and sure enough they did. And so now
we're at a position where if you did the nuclear
option on this. Our government is just a hot mess.
It's just going to go from one extreme to another.
You cannot do the nuclear option on this. You cannot
do it now. When will it change, That's a great question.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
What have we said.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
It's going to change when somebody feels feels the pain politically,
and so far nobody is feeling the pain politically. You
could go to several different polls and while they may
have the Republicans, you know, the blame fort partially, they'll

(03:24):
have some of the Democrats to blame fort partially. The
reality is it's not so overwhelming as to make one
side go.

Speaker 3 (03:30):
We have to act.

Speaker 7 (03:32):
I mean, look, the main obstacle right now is actually
that poll you saw, because neither side is really taking
the brunt of the blame. Neither of them really feels
inspired to have to be the person that folds in
this particular case. But I think things are about to change, though, Paul.
The Trump administration is kind of herculean efforts to move

(03:55):
money around and to minimize the harm from the shutdown.
Those emergency measures are now hitting a wall, and you're
about to see people really missing paychecks. Federal workers did
this week, military next week. There's money that's now going
to start running out for food stamps and other food
aid programs. So this is going to get harder to sustain.

(04:18):
But for now, nobody has a reason to put to fold.

Speaker 2 (04:24):
Not yet, not yet. And it's interesting, Like I said,
the whole thing in this. You know, they can sit
there and it's about healthcare for illegals or whatever that
they want to throw.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
I've said this over and over.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
If I'm the Democrats, I sit there and go, why
are you trying to save the Republicans? Allow it to end,
Allow the subsidies to end. If it's about winning the elections,
which is what these things are always about. This is
about power, This is not about reality. If it's about
winning elections, you let this thing go the way it is.
You're going to see twenty two million Americans see a

(04:59):
massive jump and spike in their healthcare and they're going
to be frustrating, upset, and they're going to turn and
they're going to say.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
What the hell are you guys doing.

Speaker 2 (05:09):
So the problem is the Democrats know that if they
go and do that, they're going to look like they
abandon the people.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
So it's a weird situation.

Speaker 2 (05:18):
Nobody is paying the price for it yet, but it's
going to come. And if this thing, you know, you've
heard the story. Can this thing get to Thanksgiving? I
would find it hard to think it will, but you
never know, it just might. We move from there to China,
Trump China together again?

Speaker 3 (05:36):
Is it friends? Are we freenemies? What are we?

Speaker 8 (05:39):
We're going to do well with China. I think we're
gonna have a deal with China. We meet, as you know,
in South Korea with President g I think we're going
to have a good deal with China, and.

Speaker 9 (05:49):
They want to make a deal and we want to
make a deal. We've agreed to meet them.

Speaker 8 (05:53):
We're going to meet them later in China, and we're
going to meet in the US and neither Washington.

Speaker 9 (05:59):
Or mar Laga bomb beach.

Speaker 10 (06:02):
So now I think, you know a lot of these talks, Well,
we meet, we've done a lot of discussions before we meet.

Speaker 11 (06:08):
We've done discussions with Brazilia. So I think we're going
to end up having a good deal for both countries.
I think with China that's going to happen. And we
have other deals, you know, we have Japan, we have
South Throughia, we have a lot of a lot of meetings,
but people seem to be very interested in China. I
think we're going to have as a very fair.

Speaker 2 (06:25):
Meeting with China, you know, you know, we're going to
find out they think they're getting close enough to have
some sort of deal, which would be good because I mean,
this goes along with everything else. Inflation so always about
the economy stupid. We're still a consumer based nation. We
still like to consume. We like to consume cheap goods, right,
we do. And if this is going to stick around

(06:47):
through this, you know, potentially through this fourth quarter and
early into next year, this is going to be a
real struggle come a Christmas time, which is what a
lot of people are looking at. Because we talked about
it last week. Inflation numbers were up a little bit,
not tremendously. They're down in some areas but up in others.
We've got a lot of issues when it comes to

(07:07):
food and the price of groceries. But when it comes
to the holiday times, as we all know, more expensive
it is, the less people spend, the less people spend,
the more that it becomes a precarious time for us
here in the United States. When it comes to the economy,
and the economy says it all. We could sit here

(07:28):
and talk about Venezuela, which we're gonna do in a minute.
We can sit here and talk about Ukraine, and we
consider here talking about Israel, all of those things.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
It's still a consumer based nation, and we'd love to consume.
We do.

Speaker 2 (07:38):
There are some things that are willing con exsume a
little bit more expensive because it's made here in the
United States.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
The reality is we.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Decided a long time ago it is not going to
be goods that we push out there.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
It is going to be services.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
And because of that, we change the way that we
do the things that we do when it comes to
manufacturing in this country. So with the places where things
were cheaper, it was easier people could sell them back here.
And now we're in this position that we find ourselves
in with this battle with China, and China has stayed
pretty damn strong.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
Mister Secretary.

Speaker 12 (08:11):
Coffee prices are up nineteen percent from a year ago,
beef is up almost fifteen percent, and bacon up almost
six percent, just to.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
Name a few.

Speaker 12 (08:21):
So when are all grocery prices going to come down?
As President Trump promised.

Speaker 13 (08:27):
Well, Christin you know it's unfortunate. As much as I
like you, you like to cherry pick, so you know,
when we came in, it was eggflation, egg plation, egg plation.
You know, egg prices are down, Gasoline prices are down. Overall,
the inflation since President Trump has come in, the has
come down. We inherited this terrible affordability crisis from the

(08:50):
Biden administration. The first thing we had to do was
get it under control. And this month's inflation number was
actually below the concent's number. If we look at core inflation,
it was zero point two percent, which was belilis. It's
been in a long time. Rents are coming down, so
you know, Christy, you don't get to cherry pick. Inflation

(09:13):
is a composite number, it is, but people will cherry
pick just like your cherry pick.

Speaker 3 (09:18):
That's what everybody does.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Here's what I will tell you, as I always tell
you guys this, you know what it means to you.
You know what the cost is to you. You know
how you feel right now. That's why when I always
joke about the world revolves around you, well, your world does.
And that's the only world you live in. And I
think most of you will say right now, you feel
like it's it's a little bit more expensive. It's a

(09:44):
little bit more expensive than before. Does it mean some
things aren't down? But there's no doubt that things are
sitting up higher than you would like them, and I
would like them. Of course, we'd like everything to be free.
It doesn't work that way. It doesn't work that way,
and there's.

Speaker 3 (10:02):
A reason for that, because freeze never really free, is it?

Speaker 14 (10:06):
Like?

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Last night I watched Mandannie. You know, he is going
to be the mayor of New York. And we'll get
on to socialism a little bit later. But it's very
interesting because people are excited about the rent freezing and
all these kind of things. There was a great report
out in Minnesota, Minneapolis and Saint Paul. They decided to
have rent control, freeze rents, do all these things. And

(10:28):
what happened is everything collapsed, not the numbers of the
month to month rent, but the building of homes and
apartments and things of that nature.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
They stopped.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Why because you made it so it was impossible for
anybody to make a profit to do anything. So they decided,
screw it, we're not going to do this, and all
of a sudden, building virtually stopped. Because you can call
people evil landlords all you want. But here's the thing.

(11:06):
The more housing you have, the easier it is to
have competition for prices and rent. The less you have,
the more that people are going to stay where they are,
and then it's going to become more expensive for people
to rent things. Talk a little bit about that later.
A lot of stuff to get to today, including scary
movie countdown number five. The business end of things is

(11:27):
what we're at now. We've got a big storm ruin
in the Caribbean. Yes, kids, we're talking about Melissa. Oh
and then the whole thing with Venezuela as well. We'll
talk about that as well. Three two, three, five, three, eight,
twenty four to twenty three at you edventson shows, your
ex your Insta, YouTube and more.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
Chapter is amazing.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
If you're in a position where you are thinking, I
like my medicare, I like it, and then you go
and you find out, like many people do, Yeah, your
Medicare is going away.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
That plan that you like so much gone? So what
do you do? You do a few things. First thing,
you can call a medicare agent and what are they
going to tell you?

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Oh, this is the one you need to be in.
Why is that they're going to get the most commission
out of it.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
You don't want to do that. What you instead want
to do is talk to my friends a Chapter. All right.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
They don't work for the government, and they don't work
for big insurance companies that were for you. They're amazing.
They compare every Medicare plan nationwide to find the best
fit for you. On average, senior save eleven hundred dollars
a year by working with Chapter. And here's another great thing.
The service is absolutely free and you'll get your options
within twenty minutes.

Speaker 3 (12:30):
Boom, no gimmicks.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
No pressure, honest advice from the experts who know Medicare
inside it out. Dial pound two fifty say keyword Medicare plan.
Medicare is too important, don't risk it. Work with the
partner's I trust at Chapter. Dial pound two fifty and
say keyword Medicare plan for Chapter. At Chad Benson Show,
Sure Acts, your Insta, your YouTube and Facebook coming up

(12:53):
big storm a bruin. Her name is Melissa, talk about
that among other things. Straight at Chad Benson Shoe.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
You're listening to the Chad Benson Show every.

Speaker 3 (13:12):
Once in a while. We got to take this out
and use it.

Speaker 13 (13:17):
Now.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
It's time for the Chad action news weather reports. When
weather weathers, we weather the storm.

Speaker 2 (13:24):
We are weathering the storm because it is weathering out there,
especially in the Caribbean.

Speaker 15 (13:30):
This morning, Hurricane Melissa closing in on Jamaica, a storm
forecasters worn could be catastrophic. Heavy rain already lashing the island,
up to forty inches expected in some areas, which could
trigger landslides.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, it is a uh that's gonna be ugly, gonna
be ugly. And one of the things we always talking
about tropical storms, storms that you know is this is
this a going to be a massive hurricane? Is gonna
pick up speed? It's not gonna pick up speed. It's
already costing life. And when you have areas that really
aren't that well developed or quite frankly, have no infrastructure,

(14:06):
it's going to be a nightmare.

Speaker 15 (14:07):
Melissa has already claimed multiple lives in the Caribbean, including
three in Haiti, where the storm flooded streets and destroyed homes.
It also left a trail of destruction across the Dominican
Republic and Florida. Volunteers have been preparing aid boxes containing
food and other basic necessities to help families across the Caribbean.

Speaker 2 (14:27):
It's going to be ugly for the next few days.
We talk about weather, weathering the storm, and it's going
to pick up some steam. We got really the next
few days of this thing. Even my wife said, man,
this thing is going to wallop like Trinidad and a
few of these plays.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Oh it is.

Speaker 16 (14:42):
This is going to be catastrophic for a few reasons,
the main reason being the rainfall. Yeah, you get the
wind to get the storm serves, but the rain could
be fifteen to twenty five inches, maybe even upwards of
forty inches in spots. That will cause landslides, that'll cause
some communities to be isolated for at least weeks at
a time. Just an un folding kind of slow motion catastrophe.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
There, unfolding slow motion catastrophe. And we've just talked about it.
The rain when it sits over areas, and that's what
happens when you saw what happened in North Carolina and
a few of the other places over the last couple
of years. The rain is the thing that does so
much damage because it comes and it sits and when

(15:23):
it sits these places. They just don't have the infrastructure
in the runoff to handle this. Three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four to twenty three atch Had Benson Show.
Is your ex your Insta, YouTube, Facebook, and more. If
you miss any of the show, what do we always say,
shame on you. Make sure you grab that podcast. We're
gonna be live later on tonight on the older YouTube.

(15:45):
We'd love to see you on there. Ready on the
Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
Heads toward eastern Cuba.

Speaker 16 (15:51):
But I say Wednesday, southeastern Bahamas, Wednesday night, maybe threatening
Bermuda is a weaker hurricane. The hurricane warnings that we
have an effect Jamaica, eastern Cuba. We have some Apico
storm warnings in effect as far east as portions of
Haiti as well.

Speaker 2 (16:05):
You're going to be traveling, be prepared if you're going
out there. Is not going to be a good thing. No,
it is going to be a nightmare for people out there.
So sweekend, I watched a lot of college football because
I enjoy doing that. Go Vandy And a lawsuit just
came through. Its very interesting, another concussion lawsuit and the
award is huge, and the NCAA is going to have

(16:25):
some issues here, especially with older players.

Speaker 17 (16:28):
The NCAAO is a former college football player and his
wife eighteen million dollars for failing to warn the player
about the long term effects of concussions. Robert Gaither has
played at South Carolina State University in the seventies. He's
sixty eight now and has trouble a dressing himself and
making meals. The South Carolina jury found Cottage sports major
governing body negligent and not revealing a risk. It's known

(16:50):
about since the nineteen thirties.

Speaker 3 (16:52):
Which is amazing.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
I don't know how they knew about it in the
nineteen thirties, but it's very interesting. So they awarded him
ten million dollars for him and his wife eight million dollars,
so total eighteen million. A physician diagnosed Robert Gethers with
dementia several years ago. Other physicians who testified say he's
got CTE. On the NCAA side, they said, hey, he

(17:14):
had lots of health conditions that influence his dementia like symptoms.
And they also said, look, there's going to be hits
the heads. That's inherent to the game. You can't take
the hits out of football.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
So This is one of.

Speaker 2 (17:25):
What I'm sure is going to be many coming and
the settlements are going to start.

Speaker 3 (17:29):
I'm sure as well. What did you know? And when
did you know it?

Speaker 18 (17:34):
Three?

Speaker 2 (17:34):
Two, three, five, eight, twenty four to twenty three at
Ched Benson Show is your ext your insta?

Speaker 3 (17:38):
This is the Chad Benson.

Speaker 19 (17:39):
Show, Son, Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
Another storm is a bruin. This one is in Venezuela.
Will they won't they? It's not if? But when?

Speaker 2 (18:13):
Yeah, I think it's coming. I don't know exactly when,
What exactly does it look like? I don't know. What
I do know is we're still bombing their boats and
whatever else we can.

Speaker 20 (18:22):
They attacked a semi submerci but basically kind of a
mini sub and saying, you know, who goes in a
mini sub unless they're taking drugs across. So that's about
the extent of the evidence we've seen publicly.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
They have talked about it a lot.

Speaker 20 (18:34):
They have brief Congress on a few of these things,
but they haven't really outlined the justification.

Speaker 3 (18:40):
According to some members of Congress, well you don't need to.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
Trump's already said that, right, and we've got a ton
of people over there. We've been talking to our buddy
Mike Lions military analysts. We'll have Mom tomorrow talking about
this because he's like, nobody's paying attention the way they
should in this situation.

Speaker 3 (18:58):
And this is not about fentanyl. I don't care what
anybody says.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
I think if you're smart enough and you want to
do the actual work, which isn't hard to just go
look on the DEA's website to realize this is not
about fentanyl. This is about all This is about taking
over a certain area and dominating that area, and that
is the Southern Hemisphere. You know somebody called the you

(19:22):
know the Monroe doctrine where you basically get your house
in order and get it handled and you own this part.
You look at what China's doing and they're trying to
do their part over there, Well, why don't we do
our part here.

Speaker 20 (19:36):
We have already about ten thousand service members off the
coast of Latin America. This would add five thousand, and
those carriers are bristling with weapons. You have F eighteen fighters,
you have missiles, you have electronic warfare. All of that
equipment there.

Speaker 2 (19:54):
All of it, tons of it. And when people say
it's not about oil, Chad, You're lying, lying, You're lying.
I always remind them this, this is Trump last year.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
How about with buying oil from Venezuela.

Speaker 10 (20:05):
When I left Venezuela was ready to collapse, we would
have taken it over.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
We would have gotten don that oil.

Speaker 8 (20:11):
It would have been right next toor it.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
Would have been right next door. We owned the whole thing.
It'd be great. Well, that's where we're headed. That is.

Speaker 2 (20:19):
I don't like what they're doing as far as blowing
people up with no due process. And I go back
to this, If they're really enemy combatants, why did we
return two of them back to their.

Speaker 3 (20:30):
Home in Columbia just out of curiosity?

Speaker 2 (20:35):
Why didn't we just take them in say hey, you
know what you know you guys are enemy combatants. We
have to absolutely take you back and try you. Because
they didn't want that kind of stuffcause they knew what
was coming with it.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Now.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Last night Sixty Minutes had a very long piece on
about Venezuela, and it was very Senator Scott talked about
the fact that you know, this is about controlling our hemisphere,
and that Maduro's on borrowed time.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
And the whole thing is.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Just fascinating what's going on over there, because you do
have a failed state in Venezuela that was at one
time and should be the richest maybe state in all
of or country, in all of South America because of
the amount of oil they have. One of the other

(21:34):
things they talked about is it's over for Cuba. If
we go in there and take everything over, Cuba's done.
Cuba's done for because they basically rely off of Venezuela
for so many things.

Speaker 21 (21:49):
We met Phil Gunson in Caracas. He's lived in Venezuela
for twenty six years and is a senior analyst at
the International Crisis Group, a non governmental organization is a
rarity in Venezuela. An expert willing to speak openly about
the government and Maduro's odds of surviving the current crisis.

Speaker 22 (22:09):
The asking prize is Madula's head. I mean, he has to.

Speaker 21 (22:12):
Go and he's still going out to events in front
of big crowds. Why is he not in a bunker?

Speaker 22 (22:20):
I think because the crowds of the defense. That's my suspicion.
Once or twice lately, he's done something quite unusual, which
is to hold his events in hotels. You know the
US isn't going to kill him in the hotel obviously.

Speaker 3 (22:36):
Well, apparently you don't know who we are.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
We could bring the whole damn hotel down if we
needed to, so slowly roll on that.

Speaker 21 (22:44):
Gunsen says, even if Maduro steps aside, the transition to
democracy would be.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Bumpy at best.

Speaker 21 (22:51):
Maria Karina Machado, the opposition leader who recently won the
Nobel Peace Prize, has been in hiding for months, but
has said she has a plan. There are reports of
the opposition says they have this one hundred hour plan
with the Trump administration for a peaceful transition. Is there
any guarantee that the transition will be peaceful.

Speaker 22 (23:13):
There's no guarantee at all. And in fact, one of
the things that worries me most is that there's been
no apparent negotiation with the key element in all of
this story, which is the Venezuelan n forces. If Venizelon
forces don't go along with this, and by the armed forces,
I really mean the high command and people who give
the orders, then there's a possibility perhaps the armed forces

(23:35):
might split. There's a possibility they might oppose a new
government coming in yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:42):
And let's not forget it's not just about them. People
think it's just those armedforcers. There are other things and
other groups inside of Venezuela that are allowed to operate.
I'm not even just talking about the drug people of
so many people, all these giant, huge drug cartels.

Speaker 3 (23:56):
No no, no, he says.

Speaker 21 (23:57):
Well, armed Colombian gorilla groups that DURA allows to operate
in Venezuela might also resist a change in power. Is
there a scenario that the US has to put boots
on the ground to keep order.

Speaker 22 (24:10):
I can't see a scenario in which they wouldn't have
to put boots on the ground. I mean, if the
US is responsible, it's the kind of the pulstery Golde principle,
isn't it. If you break it, you own it. You
have to protect the government that you just put in power,
and that means I think thousands of troops.

Speaker 21 (24:25):
But Senator Rick Scott doesn't think it will get to
that point. If it all goes to hell, Is the
US willing to put boots on the ground in Venezuela.

Speaker 23 (24:34):
Well, I think the American public is tired of forever
wars right now, so I think it made its very
difficult for us to make it commember that we're going
to we're going to do something like that.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
But I do.

Speaker 23 (24:45):
Believe that that internationally there would be troops that would
go in if they needed to.

Speaker 2 (24:53):
Translation, we may break it and it not go the
way we want, and then we'll have to ask a
whole bunch of other people to come in because we
made it. Giant mess. That's what that feels like.

Speaker 21 (25:02):
Right there in Washington, lawmakers are debating the legality of
the US military action. Some say the strikes amount to
extra judicial killings. The Trump administration insists they are lawful
and self defense. At the same time, Admiral Alvin Halsey,
the head of US Southern Command and the officer in

(25:22):
charge of all Caribbean activity, suddenly announced his retirement two
years ahead of schedule, offering no public explanation and raising
more questions about the Trump administration's plan. If the administration
were to turn around all those warships and said, Okay,
we've done everything we need to do here, what would
that mean for President Maduro?

Speaker 22 (25:42):
It wilding almost political triumph ldudle, because he'd be able
to say forever afterwards, you know, I stood up to
the US. I stood up to the empire, as they
called it, and the empire.

Speaker 3 (25:51):
Retreated and he can't do that. So what now?

Speaker 2 (25:57):
Well, with Milay winning last night, I think this gives
Trump even more impetus to go in there and to
do whatever they're gonna do.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
However they're gonna do it.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
It's probably gonna be mostly drones and missiles and certain
things like that.

Speaker 3 (26:10):
We're gonna see.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
It is going to be interesting because the more that
we get involved, what does the rest of the world

Counted down all the way to number one in our
Scary movie countdown, and it has been a lot of fun.
We're at number five. This is the business end of

to me and a lot of you out there as well.

(28:47):
And we've had a lot of great movies. Let's go

(29:08):
The Exorcism of Emily Rose, which brings us.

Speaker 3 (29:13):
To the top five.

Speaker 24 (29:17):
The time has come, so prepare yourself for a journey
of fear from the darkest corner of cinema.

Speaker 3 (29:25):
The most bone chilling.

Speaker 25 (29:26):
Tales ever told. It's the countdown. You've been waiting for
which movie will take the top spot?

Speaker 24 (29:38):
How about a fish tail so big because the jaws
open wide, or the story of a young innocent girl
battling evil with some help.

Speaker 23 (29:55):
Well, then let's introduce ourselves. I'm Demon Karas and.

Speaker 25 (29:58):
I'm that devil. You'll have to listen to find out.
Are you ready? Number five?

Speaker 3 (30:06):
All right?

Speaker 2 (30:07):
Number five today? An amazing movie that costs virtually nothing.
When I mean cost nothing, I mean cost nothing. Fifteen
thousand dollars. Director is name Ornpeel. He directed the movie
in his own home over the space of just over

(30:28):
a week. One week, a paranormal activity exploded on the scene.
The movie had been made for a couple of years.
He slowly but surely told none of his friends or
family what he was doing, and he was editing the movie,
and it really brought with it a fear of what

(30:48):
happens at night when you sleep. Ghost hauntings, just absolutely terrifying.
And yes, the hand held the side of things, the
video side of things that we all have at our homes.
This movie captured all of that in a way that
was absolutely incredible.

Speaker 26 (31:18):
Hi def camera on my girlfriend Katie, she thinks there's
something in the house.

Speaker 9 (31:22):
I don't know. You believe me, right. I think we're gonna.

Speaker 27 (31:25):
Have a very interesting time capturing whatever their normal phenomena
is occurring.

Speaker 9 (31:29):
Where it's not a curry windows and l doors, the
alarm is on. There ain't no weirdness on.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
Something easier breathing.

Speaker 9 (31:45):
Its footsteps in, there's no footsteps out.

Speaker 25 (31:48):
Oh god, oh if you do try to play games
with it.

Speaker 24 (31:52):
That's been fighting it in.

Speaker 1 (32:00):
She looks like something big.

Speaker 28 (32:03):
House.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
You can run from this.

Speaker 25 (32:05):
Follow you.

Speaker 18 (32:09):
You're not a.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Control what's happening to me?

Speaker 3 (32:15):
If it's not a ghost?

Speaker 9 (32:17):
What is it?

Speaker 2 (32:25):
So incredible movie scared the crap out of me. Actually,
Jack's mom, she was pregnant with her. We decided because
it had gotten so much buzz, hey, we're gonna go
see it. And it was so creepy that we're like,
you know what, let's go see something else. And we
snuck in to see another movie after this because it
was so creepy and I loved it. So the movie

(32:45):
was filmed in the director Ornpel's house. Okay, so orn
Pelly's house was was it in San Diego?

Speaker 3 (32:55):
No script?

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Katie Featherstone and Micah slote play essentially them somewhat themselves.
They used their first names, so it felt natural, and
they shot it in about a week. Everything was unrehearsed
and they just went from there and it took about
a year year and a half or so to get
it up and running fifteen thousand dollars, it grows over
one hundred and ninety three million. Paranormal Activity franchise is

(33:22):
made over a billion dollars. Steven Spielberg came in and
they decided they wanted reworks, wanted the movie. So they
go and they get the movie. And originally Spielberg wanted
this movie to be a They had heard about it,
and they said, you know what, We're going to jazz

(33:43):
it up a little bit, right, some real actors in
the whole nine yards took the movie home. He watched
it was so creeped down by it. Some weird things
happened the next day, including his bedroom door being locked
from the inside.

Speaker 3 (34:02):
That he had had enough. He took the movie back.

Speaker 2 (34:05):
In a trash bag and said, I don't want it
to my house, but we're not going to change anything.
And so they gorilla market it. As we would say
in the business that's where they decided to go out
and instead of filming the for the trailer, filming the movie,
or showing parts of the movie, they showed the audience

(34:28):
and their reaction and it was incredible. It absolutely was.
They had three endings for it, one a little bit
more dark, one very dark, and then the one you see.
They decided to keep the one you see, which led
to what we have.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Which is an incredible movie.

Speaker 2 (34:50):
When they did finally release it, it was inch by
inch and one by one in theaters and slowly but
surely people demanded it. It started with just thirteen College
Town screenings, grew to over twelve thousand theaters worldwide and
became a classic. Your number five scariest movie of all time.

(35:10):
Paranormal Activity an absolutely amazing movie. If you have a
chance to see it, it is scary, and I will
tell you this, never in your life will you be
more terrified of baby powder and a piece of string
three two, three, five, three, eight, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Benson Show is your ex your Insta, YouTube, Facebook,

(35:32):
and more. If you're missing the show, sham one, you
make sure you have that podcast helps us out right
here with the Chad Benson Show coming up, our number
two of the program, more on Venezuela. Are we going in?
Are we not going in? Are we waiting to see
what happens with the weather? What I mean, there's a
lot of stuff going on weatherwise. We talked about a

(35:53):
little bit earlier. We've also got government shutdown continuing to
move on. Is this going to go until Thanksgiving and beyond?

Speaker 3 (36:02):
There are some people worried about that. We'll talk a
little bit about that.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
Obviously, Trump today in Asia looks like a deal somewhat
has gotten done when it comes to China and tariffs.
We'll talk a little bit about that as well, among
other things. Reach out to us across all of our
social media. We love hearing from all of you. Our
number two straight at Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 2 (36:53):
The government still in shutdown, down, down, down down?

Speaker 3 (36:58):
What will happen? And Scott Bessant.

Speaker 13 (37:01):
Republican senators have voted eleven times to reopen the government.
Three brave moderate Democrats who come across the aisle. So
you know, I call on moderate Democratic senators to end
this craziness.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
You will be heroes to on this crossin US. You
got this Bay heroes and such. Thank you, Scott, appreciate that,
Scott just out of curiosity. Is there any way, shape
or form that this may hurt the economy?

Speaker 13 (37:29):
This is starting to eat into the economy, starting to
slow the economy. And we're also starting to see there's
a problem with air traffic control, so it's starting to
slow down our nation's travel.

Speaker 3 (37:40):
That is true.

Speaker 2 (37:42):
Mark Kelly, Democrat Arizona. Let me ask you a question.
Does he even know what he's talking about? This Besson fellow.

Speaker 27 (37:48):
He needs to get them back into Washington, get them
in the room.

Speaker 17 (37:52):
We can have a suit.

Speaker 20 (37:53):
If Scott Besson said it wouldn't do any good because
of the Democrat.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Well, he has no idea what he's talking about, no
idea what he's talking about. I don't think that's true.
Although I do think this is true.

Speaker 17 (38:02):
The president has spent one hour on this.

Speaker 3 (38:04):
How much times he spent talking about his.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
Ballroom Probably a lot from what I understand and what
I've heard. By the way, on the ballroom thing, it's
kind of funny that every time somebody comes in to
see the president, if this is the first time you've
seen him, and this is when he's at the White House.

Speaker 3 (38:23):
He's got two.

Speaker 2 (38:25):
Marble slabs and he asks you which one do you
think would look better?

Speaker 3 (38:31):
Come on, that's kind of funny.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
I mean, you know, this is all kinds it's super funny, right, like,
all this great stuff's happening, except for the part where
we're still effing closed. That's not very nice shit, that
kind of language. No, let me tell you something. They
should be sorting this out. They should be fixing this.
They should be talking to one another getting this thing
sorted out. They're not going to. And the reason isn't
because they don't want to. It's because they haven't proven

(38:55):
their point yet. And their point is one of us,
left or right is gonna get blaming for it. And
until there is an absolute, overwhelming, overwhelming group of people
that points to one side or the other in polls
that said it's their fault, nobody is going to come

(39:18):
and sort it out. So that means it's going to
get ugly.

Speaker 29 (39:23):
The USDA website now with this stark warning bottom line,
the well has run dry at this time. There will
be no benefits. Issued November first, the message blaming the
shutdown on Senate Democrats democratic leadership pushing back. For now,
millions of Americans are preparing for the worst. Food banks inundated.
This DC food pantry trying to keep up with demand.

(39:44):
Most Sundays they serve three hundred families. Today they're on
pace for four hundred.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
And it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Speaker 2 (39:51):
Until there is a situation where there is absolutely no doubt,
according to Poles, that one side is to blame one
hundred percent for this. Neither of them are going to
come to the table. That's what it's going to take.
It's sad but true. This is not about betterment of
the people. It's not about solving the problem, right. The

(40:12):
solution is what we come together and fix this. No, no, no, no,
This is about power.

Speaker 4 (40:19):
Everyone's worried that, you know, when they're not going to
be able to feed their families.

Speaker 5 (40:23):
Federal workers who've been furloughed and fired during the shutdown
are now joining lines at food banks which were already
strained by high grocery prices.

Speaker 2 (40:32):
So you have federal workers on top of the fact
that you have the average person who's already worried now
that there is going to be no snap benefits, and
that it's all coming to a head. We'll find out again,
look at the pole numbers. Don't look at what they're
saying in Washington. Look at the pole numbers and what
people are saying there, and how it's being framed and

(40:55):
who may be getting to blame. Then you'll find out
how they'll start to move this thing in one direction
or the other of getting it solved. Until then, here
we are sailor v as the French would say. Speaking
of the French, did you guys hear did they capture
a couple of the cats that stalled the juels?

Speaker 30 (41:16):
The two men are being held by police and questioned.
At least two more suspects remain at large, and that
stolen jewelry of immense cultural and historic value has still
not yet been recovered.

Speaker 2 (41:28):
All right, who are these We need to know. I'm
gonna need to know Basis and I need to know.

Speaker 30 (41:33):
Police arresting one of the suspects at Paris's Charle de
Gaulle airport. That suspect, an Algerian French national, according to police,
was allegedly trying to get out of the country to Algeria,
and then also officers almost simultaneously swooping into San San Denis,
it's a suburb of northern Paris not far from Shoulder

(41:53):
Guld and arresting another suspect there of Marlian French nationality,
and according to French police, that suspect was also planning
to lead the country to Marli in West Africa.

Speaker 2 (42:07):
What they were trying to leave the country. You figured
you would have left early on, didn't you? When you
have thought that you would have bounced early on in
this game, like the minute you had it, by the
next day you were out of there.

Speaker 30 (42:21):
This all came about partly because police found the DNA
of one of the suspects inside a motorcycle helmet which
was left at the scene.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
Wow, undone by a motorcycle helmet. Ye, you know it's
crazy about this though, And you guys can be honest
with me, how many of them are hoping?

Speaker 3 (42:43):
I hope they get away with it.

Speaker 2 (42:45):
It's the French, we don't really care, right, it's the
they're so obnoxious and it's this brazen robbery in the
middle of the day. Because there is a certain sense,
especially to time like today, where you see the rich
getting rich sure and more powerful. The middle class, shrinking,
poverty levels, growing, inflation is up. People seem like they're

(43:07):
losing even more control of their destiny and life. And
so you see people.

Speaker 3 (43:14):
Going, I couldn't hope they get away with this. I
kind of do so I understand that there's no doubt.

Speaker 2 (43:21):
My son last night said I kind of hope they
get away with I said, why, he goes.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
I don't know. It's the French. I don't like the French.
I'm like, he goes. Plus, it was kind of you know,
it was like kind of what they did was kind
of cool. I'm like, did they rob something?

Speaker 2 (43:37):
And I think part of that is also the anti
hero movie thing. You could compare this as well to
in a different way to Mangione who shot the United
Healthcare right. These anti heroes are growing because they're doing
things that in many cases people are going good. I'm

(43:57):
glad they did something like that. Maybe not murder, but
there are people out there that feel that way. And
I bet if you took a poll in a lot
of places, a lot of people will be hoping these
guys get away with it.

Speaker 3 (44:10):
A dB Cooper.

Speaker 2 (44:11):
Because there's always a portion of us, and myself included
the things oh, I kind of hope he got away
with it. I kind of hope that dB got away
with it because it was a mystery, the anti hero,
those kind of things. What we want to know there
there is that that get away with it thing that's
out there.

Speaker 3 (44:30):
Crazy, I know, but it's true.

Speaker 2 (44:32):
Three two, three, five, twenty four to twenty three at
Chad Benson Show. Is your ex your instant? Let me
know what you think about that. Are you in that
camp of I kind of hope they got away with it.
I kind of hope that they pulled something off.

Speaker 3 (44:46):
Love to know.

Speaker 2 (44:48):
Speaking of pulling something off, have we sorted out? Are
we close to having a trade deal with China?

Speaker 9 (44:55):
We're gonna do well with China.

Speaker 8 (44:56):
I think we're gonna have a deal with China with me,
as you know, in with President g I think we're
going to have a good deal with China.

Speaker 9 (45:04):
And they want to make a deal and we want
to make a deal. We've agreed to meet. We're going
to meet then later in China, and we're.

Speaker 8 (45:11):
Going to meet in the US in either Washington or
Park mar Laga, Bob Beach.

Speaker 9 (45:18):
So now I think you.

Speaker 10 (45:20):
Know a lot of these talks, Well, we meet We've
done a lot of discussions before we meet. We've done
discussions with Brazil, So I think we're.

Speaker 11 (45:27):
Going to end up having a good deal for both countries.
I think with China that's going to happen.

Speaker 8 (45:32):
And we have other deals, you know, we have Japan,
we have South Korea, we have a lot a lot of.

Speaker 11 (45:36):
Meetings, but people seem to be very interested in China.
I think we're going to have a very fair meeting
with China.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
You know, it's going to be fair, It's going to
be fantastic. It's going to be fairly fantastic. We'll see.

Speaker 2 (45:49):
I think there is some hope there because I think China,
especially this time of year, China understands what they they're
they're up against. We're going to get some deal out
of it. How good is it? Did it do what
it was supposed to? If indeed we do get a
dal lot of it, I think we will or was
it much to do about nothing? So we'll see exactly

(46:11):
what they agree upon. And you know, one of the
other things that we are not talking about when it
comes to China is the rare earth battle that's going on,
and that kind of led to what is happening right now.
And the fact is that Venezuela has a lot of rare,
rare earth minerals. And I don't know if you're aware
of this, but we are soon to be maybe in

(46:32):
the rare earth mineral Venezuela world, sooner rather than later.

Speaker 3 (46:36):
Putting that out there, kids, putting that out there.

Speaker 2 (46:38):
Speaking of putting it out there, Adam Silver is spoken
NBA gambling nightmare.

Speaker 4 (46:46):
NBA Commissioner Adam Silver speaking out for the first time
about that bombshell gambling scandal that is rocky the NBA.

Speaker 3 (46:53):
I'd have pit my stomach.

Speaker 4 (46:54):
There was very upsetic shock waves rippling through the sports
world after current Portland Trailblazers had co Chauncey Billups and
Miami Heat player Terry Roser, along with thirty others or
indicted in what prosecutors call a mobbed backed high tech
cheating embedding ring. Prosecutors see, the ring didn't just host
illegal games, they rigged them. Accusations of money laundering and

(47:16):
wire fraud.

Speaker 3 (47:18):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (47:21):
Several people reach out to me and go, man, this
these these these books and all of these you know,
like company, I work with the prize picking anybody I
said no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 (47:30):
So you understand some these companies.

Speaker 2 (47:34):
First of all, they were the victims in this in
the on the basketball side of stuff, right on the
on the on the on court side of stuff. But
the other thing that people aren't talking about is they
were the ones who alerted the NBA immediately something's amiss here,
something's wrong, something is not right. Too much money is

(47:56):
flowing in in an odd situation. You need to look
at this. So they lost god knows how much on
top of everything else.

Speaker 3 (48:06):
So and I want to see.

Speaker 2 (48:08):
I want to see because the whole thought process of this, Yeah,
these guys are going to be banned from basketball for life.
Unless there's just something that we have known nothing about.
They're going to be banned from basketball for life. But
I heard people the other day going, could Chauncey get
pulled out of the Hall of Fame?

Speaker 3 (48:28):
I'd find it hard, but I don't know.

Speaker 2 (48:32):

Speaker 2 (50:36):
I mean not in this case. I mean in other things,
I could totally lie, but in this one, no, I can't.
I can't lie. I'd be lying if I said that.
Of course, you know you're going to the problem is
you're not even liked in California. Now, Trump isn't either.
But right now, I think if there was a race
to see who's going to be governor of California, if
Trump ran, I think he'd have a damn good shot

(50:56):
of winning at least give him a run for his money,
despite how wacky California could be.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
There's no doubt.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
But I love It's like, well, you know, I only
got a nine to sixty on my SATs. I'm you know,
I've overcome so much, you know, which is what being
beautiful and rich? You think, of course he is. Look
at him, he's straight out. It's almost like they printed him.
They three d printed him because they couldn't find like

(51:24):
we need the guy with the look in the whole
nine yards, and like we got a guy for you, governor.

Speaker 32 (51:29):
You have long said that if you ever run for
the White House, you need a compelling why.

Speaker 3 (51:34):
A reason.

Speaker 32 (51:35):
Are you moving closer to figuring out your own why
and your own decision?

Speaker 31 (51:39):
Yeah, and needs to said to you compelling why you
can endure anyhow, And so I don't think. I think
the biggest challenge for anyone who runs for any office
is people see right through you.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
If you don't have that why you're doing it? For
the wrong reasons.

Speaker 31 (51:53):
And so look, well that will that faith will determine that.

Speaker 32 (51:58):
You certainly seem to like being on ground in South Carolina.
I have to say that seen you up close, you
were having a good time.

Speaker 31 (52:03):
I happen to and thank god I'm in the right business.

Speaker 3 (52:07):
I love people, actually love people. You know what's.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Interesting is he feels like one of those guys that
loves the running for the office. He doesn't love the
day to day minutia that goes with it, the making
the decisions three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four
to twenty three at she had betson shows, your ex
your Insta YouTube, and war right here in the Chad
Benson Show. He loves the running for the office, having

(52:32):
the big press conferences and that's about it. Well, there
you go is what it is. Could be your next
president of the United States. You know what will decide
that the next few years and how things roll economically. Meanwhile,
Tender's doing something new and they announced it last week,
and it has to do with you making a video
trying to find out if you're real or not, because

(52:53):
apparently AI men are out there, AI women are out there.

Speaker 3 (52:57):
What's going on?

Speaker 14 (52:58):
This week, they launched this new feature of ware. Basically,
you the user, you take a short selfie video of
yourself and then Tinder takes that data and cross references
it with the photos in your profile, and the effect
of that is twofold one. You can prove that you
are a real person, right, that you exist in physical space,
and then also that you look like your.

Speaker 3 (53:17):
Photo, which is kind of important.

Speaker 2 (53:21):
Did you look like your photo, which, as we've known
if you've ever online, dated not always the case, not
always the case that people look like their photo. They
feel like, hey, that photo looks okay, and then you
find out the photos twelve years old and you've had
some issues since then, so they want to But with AI,
this is thrown up a whole new world with AI

(53:43):
because people are One of the things we touched on
last week briefly was people are.

Speaker 3 (53:47):
Doing ai Q and a's if you will.

Speaker 2 (53:51):
You know, people are answering back based on you know,
you somebody hit you up, and then you go to
AI and say, how should I react to this? And
then when you find out that you hang out with them,
that you really have nothing to say to them, and
vice versa. So that's kind of interesting. As well three two, three, five,
three eight, twenty four, twenty three at Chad Benson Show.
It's your X, your insta, YouTube and more right here

(54:14):
on The Chad Benson.

Speaker 19 (54:14):
Show, then Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (54:56):
I love this song that's from a movie.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
By the band Queen, and that right there is who
Wants to Live Forever from the movie Highlander, think very much.
The whole thing with Highlander is that can be only
one and the whole thing is you got to chop
one of that other Highlander's heads off and then you
take their power. But otherwise they can't die unless they

(55:24):
lose their heads. Longevity, life forever. And I say that
because it came across this story last night and I've
seen him everywhere. It's been all over my TikTok, He's
been all over my instad, He's been all over my
Facebook and my YouTube. There's Peter Atiya and he's a
longevity doctor. This is his jam right. It's expensive to
go see him, but his goal is to give you

(55:48):
the best decade or so of your life at the end.
That about living forever. But the story is fascinating because
we are finding more and more people that are trying
to figure out how to.

Speaker 9 (56:03):
Well.

Speaker 2 (56:03):
Some people would love immortality vampires. The reality is it's
not about immortality. It's about living a fruitful, enjoyable, healthy
life for as long as possible.

Speaker 3 (56:19):
That's the big thing.

Speaker 26 (56:20):
At seventy five. Both men and women fall off a
cliff at seventy five. At the population level, it's unmistakable
what happens at the age of seventy five. That's what
we're up against. That's what I'm thinking about in the practice,
is how do I create an escape velocity that gets
somebody another fifteen years there?

Speaker 28 (56:41):
And so is your goal to minimize or essentially erase
that marginal decade.

Speaker 26 (56:47):
The marginal decade is not going anywhere. We will all
have a final decade of life. My goal is to
make the marginal decade as enjoyable as possible. The way
I explain it to my patients is that last ten
to fifteen of your years, if you don't do anything
about it, you will fall to a level of about
fifty percent of your total capacity cognitively, physically.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
And I think that's understandable.

Speaker 2 (57:09):
As people get older, we're seeing that more and more
because we're living longer and the reality is, even though
we're living longer, what are we getting out of it?
The last several you know, we talk about healthcare, the
cost of healthcare. I think it was it's seventy five
percent of the cost of healthcare. Of that will happen
through your lifetime, will happen in.

Speaker 25 (57:29):
The last ninety days.

Speaker 2 (57:32):
How do we keep you healthy, me healthy longer where
it's more enjoyable, not where you just sit there like
a lump. That's the big deal.

Speaker 28 (57:43):
Doctor Atia and his team say. The key indicator of
overall health and longevities.

Speaker 22 (57:48):
Doctor roll now vio two in the mid twenties is.

Speaker 28 (57:51):
A test called VO two max.

Speaker 3 (57:54):
Everything you got, Everything you Got.

Speaker 28 (57:56):
It sounds like the name of a sports car, but
essentially it's a measurement of the size of someone's engine.

Speaker 3 (58:02):
Really good maximal test here in.

Speaker 28 (58:04):
Their capacity to use oxygen to generate power, really nice
with their muscles, heart and lungs.

Speaker 30 (58:12):
There you go, that's the hottest part of you day.

Speaker 28 (58:14):
Don Even though you say I scored fairly well on
my VO two.

Speaker 22 (58:19):
Max Olia forty two point one.

Speaker 28 (58:22):
Okay, that's good, you said, Still not good enough for
doctor Peter Tiya.

Speaker 26 (58:26):
Yes, your VO two max was going to place you
at the eighty fifth percentile for women your age, and
I think it's worth taking a victory lap. But tomorrow
we should come back and plan on what we're going
to do.

Speaker 28 (58:39):
You think anyone, whether they're forty five or sixty five,
should be training like athletes, not for the Olympics, but
essentially for advanced age.

Speaker 3 (58:50):
Absolutely, life is a sport.

Speaker 2 (58:55):
I agree, you know, one of the big things, and
they don't really get much into this.

Speaker 3 (59:02):
Toe strength. Do you realize how much that plays a role.

Speaker 2 (59:06):
In your life because it helps you with walking. The
stronger your toes are, the better balance you have. The
better balance you have, the longer you walk, the more
that you're going to be healthy. Which is crazy, right
you think toe strength, Yeah, toe strength, there's other things
he goes into. Again, this is not for the cheap.
This is a you know, you're making a commitment because

(59:29):
there's that guy out there.

Speaker 3 (59:30):
What the hell is his name? Hold, let me find
his name. That is his name?

Speaker 2 (59:34):
I thought, so it's Brian Johnson, not the lead singer
of ACDC. He's doing the exact opposite. But this is
the guy who takes he spends two million dollars a
year on his regiment. He takes one hundred supplements today
that's about one hundred and eleven pills. And it was

(59:55):
so bizarre because I saw him this weekend. He came
up upon my TikTok because I was doing research about
you know, doctor Atilla, and one of the things on
here that he was doing is like, here's my day,
and he wakes up at like four thirty, and then
he goes and he does his usual workout of some sort.
You know, he does like eight of them right like,

(01:00:17):
because everybody's got this kind of time, and then he goes,
we can all do this, and then at one point
he's like getting into his hyper bearer chamber.

Speaker 3 (01:00:24):
Yeah, because all of us have that. What are you nuts?

Speaker 2 (01:00:28):
But it's it's like, you know, apparently his his heart
health is out of a twenty two year old, and
is is you know, his his lungs are this and that.
You know, they're all younger. But I went to the
comments and what I found to be hilarious was everybody says,
you're doing so much to live, that you're forgetting to live.

(01:00:50):
You're doing so much to try to extend your life
forever that you're forgetting why you live life, which can happen,
as we all know.

Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
Continue doctor Attilla.

Speaker 26 (01:01:04):
After my daughter was born, all I could think about was,
oh my God like to I want to have as
much time as possible on this planet with this baby.

Speaker 28 (01:01:14):
That's when he decided to become his own first patient
in a new specialty, longevity medicine. Today, he considers himself
neither a primary care physician nor a provider of concierge care.

Speaker 26 (01:01:28):
We could quantify how that lowers your risk of cancer
or heart disease.

Speaker 28 (01:01:31):
What doctor Attilla is prescribing is a radical change in
how Americans think about their own healthcare, driven by the
patient focused on prevention, a practice he calls medicine three
point zero.

Speaker 26 (01:01:45):
We're dying of heart disease, we're dying from stroke, cancer, dementia,
type two diabetes, and we, I think have sort of
come to realize that, Hey, the playbook of medicine two
point zero, which is treat a disease when a disease
is present, doesn't seem to work as well. And so
the first principle of medicine three point zero is you

(01:02:05):
have to take a much longer arc on the prevention
of chronic disease.

Speaker 2 (01:02:10):
And why that's important as we talk about the cost
of health care and the fact that we spend more
than any other nation on the planet and we're not
getting what we should out of it. Average age lifespan
between men and women's is about seventy almost seventy eight years,
while other nations spend less and they live longer.

Speaker 3 (01:02:31):
You know why, because they're healthier.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
Dutch ad No, they're healthier longer, they smoke less, they
don't drink as much, and most importantly, they're not fat
like America is. That's a big deal right there. The
reality is is we eat ourselves into an early grave.

(01:02:54):
We stress ourselves out into an early grave. That is
a huge issue. And preventative medicine. It's more or less,
work out more, try not to smoke, drink sparingly, eat
a little better, and you'll find out that life will

(01:03:14):
probably go on a little bit longer and healthier for you.
And the other thing is purpose. Purpose is a big deal.
Purpose is a massive deal. When you have purpose in
your life, you find that you do things longer and
you're healthier and because you're active, and not just in

(01:03:37):
the physical way, but in the mental way. I gave
you that for free. Now does this stuff work or
does it not work? Everybody's gonna have naysayers.

Speaker 28 (01:03:45):
There are physicians, including a respected professor of public health
we spoke to, who are skeptical that is extraordinary regimen
will result in an extra decade of healthy life. When
a fellow physician calls some of what you're talking about
hocus pocus.

Speaker 26 (01:04:04):
People are entitled to think what they want, and just
because someone is a physician doesn't mean they're even remotely
equipped to evaluate the merits of exercise physiology. Remember I
went to Stanford Medical School, right, how many hours of
education do you think I received on exercise?

Speaker 28 (01:04:18):
Probably a few hours.

Speaker 26 (01:04:20):
Zero hours? And how many hours did I receive on nutrition?
Zero hours? Was twenty five years ago, so maybe things
have changed. But I'm pretty sure that if you're talking
to other esteemed physicians, they're in the same bucket as me,
so you know they might not be the ones that
are best equipped to be my critics.

Speaker 2 (01:04:38):
Very true, very true, But I think a lot of
this is just common sense and yes, getting to know
exactly how good your lungs are in your heart, that's
all good.

Speaker 3 (01:04:49):
But I mean, this is expensive.

Speaker 2 (01:04:50):
This guy charges six figures plus to see him, and
you're going to get the top notch thing that he's
going to you know, as far as the test sting
in some of the stuff like that, which is awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:05:03):
That being said, too much of it's just common sense.

Speaker 28 (01:05:06):
There is plenty of data on longevity and people living
long that have very strong relationships.

Speaker 26 (01:05:15):
Yes, just like the exercise data. I don't think this
is just a correlation. I really think that there is
also some causality that flows from the end of having
great relationships to living a longer life.

Speaker 28 (01:05:32):
What's the point of living long if you don't have
people to share it with.

Speaker 26 (01:05:36):
What's the purpose of living longer if you're unhappy.

Speaker 28 (01:05:39):
Doctor Attilla plans on launching a new digital health app
next year. He says that eighty percent of his program
does not require a physician and is adamant it's never
too late to begin delaying the inevitable.

Speaker 2 (01:05:55):
I love it, Like I said, I find it fascinating.
People say, well, what do I want? I want to
live as long as I possibly can, as healthy as
I possibly can. And yeah, no matter how healthy you are,
sometimes in life things happen. No matter how fit you are.
Sometimes in life there's a certain thing that you or
doctor just didn't see. But when we do it right

(01:06:22):
and having purpose and being fit and being mentally strong,
those kind of things play a huge role in longevity,
but not just longevity, longevity in a way that is
good and matters where you are participating in life and
not just well.

Speaker 3 (01:06:39):
For lack of a better term, a vegetable, how long
do you want to live?

Speaker 26 (01:06:42):
You know, I want to live to be old enough
to have a meaningful relationship with as many as my
grandkids as I can. That probably means making it into
my nineties.

Speaker 28 (01:06:53):
Could you must be plotting that with your VEO tramax.

Speaker 26 (01:06:57):
Yeah, you know. It's funny. We do an exercise with
our patients which is called the timeline exercise. So if
we were doing this for you, we would draw, you know,
we would draw a line for Nora, so you're fifty one, yeah,
and then I would draw a ticket sixty one, seventy one,
eighty one, ninety one hundred and one, and then we
would draw all three of your kids, and then we
would start to extrapolate when do you think they're going

(01:07:18):
to have kids? And so you're going to draw their
first grandkid, and we're going to map your life out
according to this timeline, and you're going to see pretty
quickly what it's all about.

Speaker 28 (01:07:29):
That really kind of puts it in great perspective for me.

Speaker 26 (01:07:32):
So yes, I've mapped my life out in that regard,
and I know that the difference between being eighty and
ninety is huge in terms of what I can have
with those kids.

Speaker 3 (01:07:45):
I love it, feel the same way. Let me know
what you think.

Speaker 2 (01:07:50):
Three two, three, five, three eight, twenty four, twenty three
at Chad Benson Show, is your ex, your Insta, YouTube, Facebook,
and more love hearing from all of you. And one
of the things there is is weightlifting. How important weightlifting
is the thing we talk about here. That's why a
relief factor is so good. If you're like me, get
a little older, a little longer in the tooth, you're
not too old, but you still are trying to work out.

Speaker 3 (01:08:10):
You're still trying to do more.

Speaker 2 (01:08:11):
One of the big things about working out is being
able to recover. Relief factor helps you with that one
hundred percent drug free, research based formula design and support
your body's natural inflammatory response.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
So the more that you're moving around the more that
you're overexerting.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Yourself, if you will, the more that you're sore, and
then it's about recovery. The faster you recover, the more
you're gonna do, the more you're gonna do, the healthier
you're going to be. Relief Factor helps you with that.
That contains four key ingredients omega, three fatty acids, res veritrol,
chusamin and a car and each support the body's inflammatory
re spons from a different metabolic pathway. It works and
it's amazing. I take it every day and so does

(01:08:45):
my wife. We both swear by it. Try it now
three week quick start just nineteen ninety five.

Speaker 3 (01:08:50):
That's listed.

Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
A cup of coffee a day and you're gonna feel
am as. You will experience the difference. You will feel
the difference. Go to relief Factor dot com. That's relief
Factor dot com now to get yours, or call one
eight hundred and four Relief that's eight hundred to number
four relief for Relief Factor.

Speaker 3 (01:09:05):
This is the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 1 (01:09:17):
If you like talk radio like Chad Benson likes his meals,
You've come to the perfect place for takeout and.

Speaker 2 (01:09:25):
Is that time of the program where we have a
little bit of fun, help you and myself at time
learn new phrases and words that the kids use each
and every single day in the world. Do we live
in that Maybe we think we know but in reality
they mean something completely different, or we've never even heard
those things before.

Speaker 3 (01:09:42):
You know what time it is heard? Now, it's time
for the urban word of the day.

Speaker 2 (01:09:48):
The young have a vocabulary all their own, and we
break it down for you.

Speaker 3 (01:09:52):
It's called the urban word of the day. This is
very interesting.

Speaker 2 (01:09:57):
I heard this use this weekend talking about phidio games
and I said, I don't play a lot of video games.

Speaker 3 (01:10:03):
And some of the board ops and.

Speaker 2 (01:10:05):
The younger folks that work with me at the local station,
so what do you play as well?

Speaker 3 (01:10:09):
I just don't play a lot of video games.

Speaker 31 (01:10:10):
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:10:10):
I played some back in the day, and they go, oh,
do you play those Boomer shooter games? I said, well,
that was a boomer shooter game, Wolfenstein, Doom, Duke nukeom
Shadow Warriors, Blood Quake and Quake two Dusk. I said, oh, yeah,
those are probably the ones I would play if I
was to play him. But my Boomer Shooter goes back
even further because I played basically atari stuff.

Speaker 3 (01:10:32):
But boomer shooter is your urban word of the day.

Speaker 25 (01:10:36):
That was the urban word of the day.

Speaker 3 (01:10:39):
Now, you know.

Speaker 2 (01:10:41):
I guess it's always good to know, especially if you're
a boomer shooter. Speaking of boomers, Charlie Sheen was on
with Bill Maherer talking about the halftime show of the
football game.

Speaker 33 (01:10:51):
Got to figure out the halftime show, well to the
super Bowl, needs to figure out the halftime show. What
do you mean, figure out figure out like just you
know or something that that that that the diehard fans
really want as far as musically. So am taking this
sort of a backhanded slight to bad Bunny? Yeah, I

(01:11:11):
mean I I there's just there there's bands, there's there's acts,
there's there's just people that I think are are more
germane to the experience of the game, of that moment
of that particular game, and big it's the biggest game
in the universe that's played, you know, And I just
feel like it.

Speaker 3 (01:11:29):
And I'm sure mister Bunny is wonderful.

Speaker 33 (01:11:31):
I mean, it's a reflection on me that I don't
know his work as well as I can, but I'm
of a different era.

Speaker 3 (01:11:37):
I was hoping that I'm sure would be Eddie Rabbit.
I mean that that that I'm wanting. That made me laugh,
Eddie Rabbit talk about boomers. Huh.

Speaker 2 (01:11:47):
By the way, just let you know it's not the
biggest game in the world. In fact, this weekend Classico
played between Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Speaker 3 (01:11:55):
So the World Cup dwarfs the super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (01:11:58):
The Super Bowl is dwarfed by a lot of things,
including things like El Classico and in l Classico this weekend,
six hundred and about thirty five million people watch that
game three two, three, five, eight, twenty four to twenty
three at Jet Benson shows, your ex your Insta, YouTube
and more. If you missing the show, shame when you've
had the podcast right here in the Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:12:20):
Coming up, hour number three of the program.

Speaker 2 (01:12:22):
A lot of stuff still to talk about, including more
on the government shutdown.

Speaker 3 (01:12:27):
Zora and Mandani. Socialism talk about that a little bit
as well.

Speaker 2 (01:12:31):
It's very interesting when you talk about the socialistic world
that a lot of young people are seeming to head to,
and while this is going on, you've got what's happening
in Venezuela and the collapse of socialism.

Speaker 3 (01:12:45):
Talk a little bit about that.

Speaker 2 (01:12:46):
On top of that, we've got Scary movie Countdown.

Speaker 3 (01:12:50):
We're on to number five. As I'd like to say, we're.

Speaker 2 (01:12:55):
On the business end of things, so we'll have your
number five Scary movie countdown.

Speaker 3 (01:12:59):
All that's it. Ahead our number three Chad Benson, Jock.

Speaker 1 (01:13:03):
This is the Chad Benson Show, The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 3 (01:13:33):
We're in the middle of a shutdown. That's why I
start today this hour shutdown talk.

Speaker 18 (01:13:41):
The second longest government shutdown in history is still going on,
according to Treasury Secretary Scott Besson, because Democratic leaders are
afraid of being primaried from the left.

Speaker 13 (01:13:51):
I call on moderate Democratic senators to end this craziness.
You'll be heroes.

Speaker 18 (01:13:56):
He was on ABC's This Week, so is Senator Mark Kelly,
A grad to put the blame on Presidentent Trump.

Speaker 3 (01:14:02):
The President has spent one hour on this. How much
time is he spent talking about his ballroom?

Speaker 18 (01:14:07):
Federal workers missed their first full paycheck Friday, snap benefits
or set to run out next month?

Speaker 2 (01:14:13):
Yes it will and why because government shutdown and next month,
by the way, is Saturday, so it's not like it's
weeks away.

Speaker 3 (01:14:26):
When are they coming back?

Speaker 9 (01:14:27):
Chad?

Speaker 3 (01:14:28):
When is it going to happen.

Speaker 9 (01:14:29):
Chad.

Speaker 2 (01:14:29):
Are they ever coming back, Chad, Yes, eventually they will.
At this point in time, there's no reason to come
back because, as we have said since JOMP, they'll come
back when it becomes a political it's you for them,
and whoever them are, is one side or the other
is starting to lose in the game of polls.

Speaker 7 (01:14:52):
I mean, look, the main obstacle right now is actually
that poll you saw, because neither side is really taking
the brunt of the blame. Neither of them really feels
inspired to have to be the person that folds in
this particular case. But I think things are about to change, though, Paul.
The Trump administration is kind of herculean efforts to move

(01:15:16):
money around and to minimize the harm from the shutdown.
Those emergency measures are now hitting a wall, and you're
about to see people really missing paychecks. Federal workers did
this week, military next week. There's money that's now going
to start running out for food stamps and other food
aid programs. So this is going to get harder to sustain.

(01:15:39):
But for now, nobody has a reason to put to fold.

Speaker 2 (01:15:43):
There you go, That sums it up right there. Nobody
has a reason at this moment in time to fold.
It's sad that we're at this position where we're talking about, well,
you know what, they'll come back when they feel it's
best for America and that they think they've they've made
strides to fix the problems that in many cases they

(01:16:04):
have created. No, that's not it. They'll come back when
the polls say they're in trouble, that's when they'll come back.
In Massachusetts, where more than one million people will lose
SNAP benefits, Democratic Governor Moore Healey pointing the fingers squarely
at President Trump.

Speaker 34 (01:16:23):
President Trump has chosen to stop all SNAP benefits to
Americans starting next week. You know, leadership is a choice,
and sadly President Trump has chosen to take away food
from people all around this country.

Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
Oh, stinging, stinging, you know what. They're both to blame.
They are, they're both to blame in this situation. And
they need to get their asses back in there and
they need to start doing their job.

Speaker 29 (01:16:57):
The USDA website now with this stark warning bottom line,
the well has run dry at this time, there will
be no benefits. Issued November first, the message blaming the
shutdown on Senate Democrats democratic leadership pushing back. For now,
millions of Americans are preparing for the worst. Food banks inundated.
This DC food pantry trying to keep up with demand.

(01:17:18):
Most Sundays they serve three hundred families. Today they're on
pace for four hundred.

Speaker 3 (01:17:23):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:17:23):
The question is, that's a big question is can they
come up with some sort of stopgap measure? Are they
going to ride this for as long as possible. I
don't think they have a stopgap measure.

Speaker 3 (01:17:36):
I don't. I think it's over. And even this weekend,
I know that was it.

Speaker 2 (01:17:39):
Timothy Mellon of Carnegie Mellon the Fame and Money, gave
some money as an anonymous donation to.

Speaker 3 (01:17:46):
Pay the troops. Here's the reality.

Speaker 2 (01:17:48):
First of all, that's no, because we shouldn't have private
people paying the troops, because well, you shouldn't be paying
the troops, right, They're not a private entity like that. Secondly,
you guys need to get back in there and do
your job. I think it's that simple. And whether or
not it will go to Thanksgiving is the question that's

(01:18:11):
being asked.

Speaker 3 (01:18:13):
I don't know if it will, maybe maybe not.

Speaker 2 (01:18:17):
I think it's once it becomes untenable, And I don't
know when that is for this group of people, then
we'll see them get back in there.

Speaker 3 (01:18:25):
I mean, could we see a scenario where both of
them blamed. I would like to think that would happen,
but I don't know if that's true.

Speaker 2 (01:18:32):
Speaking of the ballroom, by the way, morning Joe David
Ignacius today, because there's still people upset about the ball
when we joked about it last hour.

Speaker 3 (01:18:41):
There are.

Speaker 2 (01:18:44):
People who come in to meet with Trump at the
White House and as they come in, they're asked, which marble.

Speaker 3 (01:18:55):
Do you like? Do you like this marble? Do you
like this marble?

Speaker 27 (01:18:59):
So this is the presidency as wrecking ball. I think
that's one reason that destruction of the East Wing has
really upset people in a way that even Trump's most
outrageous other actions haven't. Peggy Noonan is a very balanced,
sensible person, but she was anguished by what she was seeing.

Speaker 25 (01:19:20):
And I think it comes down in the.

Speaker 27 (01:19:22):
Sense that we all have we've been to the White
House or certainly seen photographs of it, and we think
of it as the people's.

Speaker 2 (01:19:29):
House because it is the people's house. That being said,
is it the worst thing ever? No? Are there lots
of good conspiracies behind it, including the fact that this
costing so much because they're building a bunker underneath. Because
Trump's going to go in there and He's going to
hold onto power for good. That may be one of
my favorite things that's happening. Do I think that's going

(01:19:51):
to happen. I do not think that's going to happen.
But is it funny?

Speaker 27 (01:19:55):
Yes, it was built deliberately to be understated. It's not
a pow us like Victorian rulers have had. It's the
people's house and Donald Trump has turned it into his
own personal property, or at least.

Speaker 3 (01:20:10):
Settle down, settle down with the own personal property.

Speaker 2 (01:20:13):
People freaking out about this, Yes, should you be a
little upset because he said he wasn't gonna do anything
to the East wing, knowing full well they were gonna
have to do that. Yeah, that was kind of a
that's part for the course. Do I find this to
be the worst thing ever? Now look at Truman? People say, well,
what about Truman?

Speaker 3 (01:20:28):
All these people?

Speaker 2 (01:20:28):
You know Truman, by the way, when he put the balcony,
people freaked out. That was a big, huge argument. It
was a big debate amongst people about the balcony Truman's balcony.
But the reality is an upgrade was needed, especially in
certain areas. Everybody needs to slow the role. It's the

(01:20:51):
and I think this is the issue right here. The
timing of it doesn't look good. When you have people,
including major companies, pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into
this right now, when people are struggling, it's the halves
buying more halves and access to haves.

Speaker 3 (01:21:10):
Well, they have not struggle. He behaves that way.

Speaker 27 (01:21:13):
You know, in the middle of the night, the bulldozers
come in and begin tearing down this historic building. If
the Washington Post hadn't run up photograph taken from across
the street in the Treasury Building, we might not have
known for twenty four hours that it was even happening.
It was stealthy in the middle of the night. And

(01:21:34):
I think that makes people angry. And as you say,
how could it be that members of the Congress that's
supposed to be the co guaranteur of our freedoms and
our orderly system of government haven't set up peep. I mean,
it's deeply troubling.

Speaker 2 (01:21:52):
The reason they haven't set a peep is because most
of them are terrified of Trump. He has new to
them and they're terrified to say anything outside of two.
And every time those two open their mouth, Trump threatens
to and or is trying to primary them in Rampaul
and Massey. It's odd what he's doing with the likes of.

Speaker 3 (01:22:15):
MTG.

Speaker 2 (01:22:16):
Marjorie Tayler Green because he's kind of given her a
little bit whiter swath. Other people are taking swipesatter, But
the reality is what it is.

Speaker 3 (01:22:24):
He's doing it. Get over it.

Speaker 2 (01:22:27):
And if you really want to piss him off, I
saw something the other day that said you should rename it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:32):
The Barack Obama Ballroom. That piss him off.

Speaker 27 (01:22:36):
Yeah, there are lots of reasons why we need a
ballroom us, someplace to have more guests.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
You've been to events.

Speaker 27 (01:22:44):
The White House that were held intense, and you could
make a good argument that we do need some space,
but not done this way, not done in secret, and
contrary to the way it was described. Trump seems to
have learned nothing from.

Speaker 3 (01:22:59):
This, but I do.

Speaker 27 (01:23:00):
I think lots of other people watching us I've learned
a lot, and it's going to continue to bother them.

Speaker 3 (01:23:06):
Well, let it bother them. They'll get over it a
little bitch about it.

Speaker 2 (01:23:08):
Then it'll be neat and somebody's gonna come in and
then how much is it gonna cost to fix it?
Because they're not going to like the look Oh goodness
me three two, three, five, twenty four to twenty three
acts you bene chose your acts, your Insta, YouTube and more.
All that going on Trump deal in China. Potentially we're
going to do well with China.

Speaker 8 (01:23:29):
I think we're gonna have a deal with China. We meet,
as you know, in South Korea with Prisioner G.

Speaker 9 (01:23:35):
I think we're going to have a good deal with China,
and they want to make a deal and we want
to make a deal. We've agreed to meet. We're going
to meet then later in China, and we're.

Speaker 8 (01:23:45):
Going to meet in the US in neither Washington or
Park mar Laga, Tom Beach.

Speaker 10 (01:23:51):
So now I think, you know a lot of these talks, Well,
we meet, we've done a lot of discussions before we meet.

Speaker 11 (01:23:58):
We've done discussions with Brazilia. So I think we're going
to end up having a good deal for both countries.

Speaker 9 (01:24:03):
I think with China that's going to happen.

Speaker 11 (01:24:05):
And we have other deals, you know, we have Japan,
we have South.

Speaker 9 (01:24:08):
Throughia, we have a lot of.

Speaker 11 (01:24:09):
Meetings, but people seem to be very interested in China.
I think we're going to have a very fair meeting
with China.

Speaker 3 (01:24:16):
Yeah, it's going to be a fair meeting. It's going
to be a great meeting. It's going to be a meeting. Good.
I'm glad.

Speaker 2 (01:24:21):
It's get a meeting out of the way. Let's get
this thing done. Let's all start acting like adults.

Speaker 14 (01:24:26):
Here.

Speaker 3 (01:24:27):
Here's the reality.

Speaker 2 (01:24:30):
This was a battle of wills, and so far it's
been a bit of a draw, and China wants to
hold on to the power they have and they're going
to push, push and push, and we're focusing our power
at this moment in time on Venezuela because we think
that'll weaken them when it comes to oil and some
of the stuff that we can do against them, which

(01:24:51):
would be huge, don't get me wrong, But let's all
just take a deep breath. Why don't we just act
adults and get stuff done? How about those apples three two, three, five, three, eight,

Speaker 3 (01:30:35):
No, But that's just me.

Speaker 2 (01:30:39):
Always kind of been that way because I think we
are still going to look for, especially for cheap consumer goods.

Speaker 3 (01:30:47):
It's always going to.

Speaker 2 (01:30:47):
Be price, price, price, and other places will produce it cheaper.

The Chad Benson Show.

Speaker 35 (01:31:22):
We're coming for you, Venezuela.

Speaker 3 (01:31:25):
What can you do to stop us? Nothing? Do I
want us to go there?

Speaker 29 (01:31:30):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:31:31):
Do I want regime change?

Speaker 9 (01:31:32):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:31:34):
I think it would be great for the region. I
think read great for the people. Do I think that
America should lead the charge on this? I do not.
Not in the way that looks like we're doing it
and they're getting ready for it. They understand that stuff
is happening. They're not idiots. People of Venezuela are looking
around going something's going down.

Speaker 21 (01:31:53):
Well, does it feel like something's about to happen?

Speaker 3 (01:31:55):
Sil I'm more afraid off.

Speaker 21 (01:31:56):
This, Yes, she said. It feels very very heavy weight
of uncertainty and the rumble of armored vehicles can be
felt throughout the country and estimated one hundred and twenty
five thousand members of Venezuela's military have mobilized. Well, we
were there. The government was holding emergency drills and urging

(01:32:17):
civilians to prepare for combat. It's all a bit of
theater and a response to this. Since September, the US
military has blown up at least ten vessels, killing more
than three dozen alleged drug smugglers, most of them off
the coast of Venezuela.

Speaker 3 (01:32:36):
It's happening.

Speaker 2 (01:32:38):
It is how it happens that I don't know, but
it is going to happen.

Speaker 3 (01:32:46):
Do we have boots on the ground. That's a very
big question. Why.

Speaker 2 (01:32:50):
Because they've got everything. They got oil, lots of it,
most in the world. They've also got stuff that people
aren't talking about, like rare earth.

Speaker 21 (01:33:00):
Ambassador James Story was the last American diplomat at the
now closed US embassy in Venezuela. He says the show
of US force is likely intended to oust Nicholas Maduro
Venezuela's dictator.

Speaker 37 (01:33:15):
This is a very bad actor sitting on top of
the world's largest known reserves of oil plus the critical
minerals that will fuel the twenty first century economy. And
he's in bed with our strategic competitors.

Speaker 28 (01:33:30):
And how has he been able to cling to power
for as long as he has?

Speaker 37 (01:33:34):
I mean, let's be very clear. This is a criminal
organization masquerading as a government. This is an individual who
is under indictment for nar cadastrafficking, commits human rights violations,
someone who has used the apparatus of the state to
throw people in jail, to torture them, to kill them.

Speaker 2 (01:33:53):
Now that being said, twenty twenty, I think it was
there was an indictment, is it.

Speaker 3 (01:34:01):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:34:01):
Do I think he knows who the players are the
cartels of the Sun. Is there some serious issues in there?

Speaker 3 (01:34:08):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (01:34:08):
But is he a player in the place that matters most,
which is ventanyl No, that is not even close to
what this is about. We want what he talks about first,
oil and gas, Oil and gas. That's the thing that
matters to us, oil and gain because we hurt the

(01:34:31):
likes of not just China. It puts more pressure on
Russia but also Kuba. But to think that we're gonna
get in this and everything's gonna be fine, and it's
gonna be smooth and easy if indeed we do, and
I would find it weird to think that we're not
at this point.

Speaker 3 (01:34:52):
I don't know, man, I think it's happening.

Speaker 21 (01:34:54):
We met Phil Gunson in Caracas. He's lived in Venezuela
for twenty six years and is a senior analyst is
at the International Crisis Group, a non governmental organization. Gunsen
is a rarity in Venezuela, an expert willing to speak
openly about the government and Maduro's odds of surviving the
current crisis.

Speaker 22 (01:35:14):
The asking price is Madula's head. I mean, he has
to go.

Speaker 21 (01:35:18):
And he's still going out to events in front of
big crowds.

Speaker 28 (01:35:23):
Why is he not in a bunker?

Speaker 22 (01:35:25):
I think because the crowds of the defense. That's my suspicion.
Once or twice lately he's done something quite unusual, which
is to hold his events in hotels. You know, the
US isn't going to kill him in a hotel, obviously.

Speaker 3 (01:35:41):
Well, settled down. We could, we could.

Speaker 2 (01:35:44):
This guy's totally honest about though what he sees being
in the middle there, but also understanding who we are
as Americans and what we're trying to do.

Speaker 21 (01:35:51):
Gunsen says, even if Maduro steps aside, the transition to
democracy would be.

Speaker 1 (01:35:57):
Bumpy at best.

Speaker 21 (01:35:58):
Maria Karina Macha, the opposition leader who recently won the
Nobel Peace Prize, has been in hiding for months, but
has said she has a plan. There are reports of
the opposition says they have this one hundred hour plan
with the Trump administration for a peaceful transition. Is there
any guarantee that the transition will be peaceful.

Speaker 22 (01:36:20):
There's no guarantee at all. And in fact, one of
the things that worries me most is that there's been
no apparent negotiation with a key element in all of
this story, which is the Venezuela uned forces. If venezeldaon
forces don't go along with this, and by the armed forces,
I really mean the high command and people will give
the orders, then there's a possibility perhaps the armed forces

(01:36:42):
might split. There's a possibility they might oppose a new
government coming in.

Speaker 2 (01:36:48):
There's a possibility for that, and There's a lot of
reasons for that. So remember how close Venezuela is to Columbia,
and because he is a crap stir, there are things
that he does that piss off even the neighbors, one
of which is let all the dudes who would like
to overthrow Colombia who are Colombian kind of hang out there.

Speaker 21 (01:37:11):
He says, Well, armed Colombian gorilla groups that Maduro allows
to operate in Venezuela might also resist a change in power.
Is there a scenario that the US has to put
boots on the ground to keep order.

Speaker 22 (01:37:25):
I can't see a scenario in which they wouldn't have
to put boots on the ground. I mean, if the
US is responsible, it's the kind of the Pustery Golle principle,
isn't it If you break it, you own it. You
have to protect the government that you just put in power,
and that means I think thousands of troops.

Speaker 21 (01:37:40):
But Senator Rick Scott doesn't think it will get to
that point.

Speaker 1 (01:37:43):
If it all goes to hell.

Speaker 21 (01:37:45):
Is the US willing to put boots on the ground
in Venezuela.

Speaker 23 (01:37:49):
Well, I think the American public is tired of forever wars.

Speaker 3 (01:37:53):
Right now.

Speaker 23 (01:37:53):
So I think it made its very difficult for us
to make a commember that we're going to we're going
to do something like that. But they do believe that
that internationally there would be troops that would go in
if they needed to.

Speaker 3 (01:38:08):
Do you really think that we're going to have all
of these troops here and not do something with it.
We're going to talk to Mike Lines, our military analysts tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (01:38:16):
I would find it hard to believe that we're not
going to do something more.

Speaker 3 (01:38:20):
Trump's already said we are. Trump said the other day,
We're going to kill.

Speaker 2 (01:38:23):
Him on their soil. That's what's gonna happen. We're going
to kill them on their soil. And we're not going
to ask anybody at all in Congress what they think
until after it's done.

Speaker 3 (01:38:34):
So we'll just kill them there. He has said that, okay.

Speaker 21 (01:38:38):
In Washington, lawmakers are debating the legality of the US
military action. Some say the strikes amount to extra judicial killings.
The Trump administration insists they are lawful and self defense.
At the same time, Admiral Alvin Halsey, the head of
US Southern Command and the officer in charge of all
Caribbean activity, suddenly announced his retirement two years ahead of schedule,

(01:39:04):
offering no public explanation and raising more questions about the
Trump administration's plan. If the administration were to turn around
all those warships and said, Okay, we've done everything we
need to do here, what would that mean for President Maduro?

Speaker 22 (01:39:17):
It would be the normost political triumph adudle, because he'd
be able to say forever afterwards. You know, I stood
up to the US, I stood up to the empire
as they called it, and the empire retreated.

Speaker 3 (01:39:28):
Yeah. I don't think that's going to happen.

Speaker 29 (01:39:30):
Now.

Speaker 2 (01:39:30):
Do I think there's going to be boots. I would
assume some sort of boots. What kind of boots? I
don't know what. I'd love to see. My thought of
this be absolutely wrong and nothing happens. But do you
think we're really going to turn around after moving all
of our ships there? And you know the thought process
of the you know, there was the Moreau doctrine, which
is take care of your hemisphere, Own your hemisphere, dominate

(01:39:53):
your hemisphere, be it, and then worry about the rest later.

Speaker 3 (01:39:56):
I think we're more towards that than anything else. Let
me know what you think.

Number five today? An amazing movie that costs virtually nothing.
When I mean costs nothing, I mean cost nothing. Fifteen
thousand dollars. Director's name Ornpeel. He directed the movie in
his own home over the space of just over a week.

(01:43:51):
One week, a paranormal activity exploded on the scene.

Speaker 3 (01:43:57):
The movie You've been made for a couple of years.

Speaker 2 (01:43:59):
He slowly but surely told none of his friends or
family what he was doing, and he was editing the movie,
and it really brought with it a fear of what
happens at night when you sleep, goes hauntings.

Speaker 3 (01:44:14):
Just absolutely terrifying.

Speaker 2 (01:44:16):
And yes, the handheld the side of things, the video
side of things that we all have in our homes.
This movie captured all of that in a way that
was absolutely incredible.

Speaker 1 (01:44:39):
Hi def camera on my girlfriend Katie.

Speaker 3 (01:44:42):
She thinks there's something in the house.

Speaker 4 (01:45:36):
If it's not a ghost, what is it?

Speaker 2 (01:45:46):
So incredible? Movie scared the crap out of me. Actually,
Jack's mom, she was pregnant with her. We decided, because
it's gotten so much buzz hey, we're gonna go see it.
And it was so creepy that we're like, you know what,
let's go see something else. And we snuck in to
see another movie after this because it was so creepy
and I loved it. So the movie was filmed in

(01:46:08):
the director Arnpel's house. Okay, so arn Pelly's house. Was
it in San Diego? No script. Katie Featherstone and Micah
Sloat played essentially them somewhat themselves. They used their first
names so it felt natural, and they shot it in
about a week.

Speaker 3 (01:46:28):
Everything was unrehearsed and they just went from there and
it took about a year year and a half or
so to get it up and running fifteen thousand dollars,
it grows over one hundred and ninety three million. Paranormal
Activity franchise is made over a billion dollars. Steven Spielberg
came in and they decided they wanted Dreworks wanted the movie,

(01:46:51):
so they go in, they get the movie, and originally
Spielberg wanted this movie to be a They had heard
about it, and they said, you know what, we're going
to jazz it up a little bit, right, some real
actors in the whole nine yards took the movie home.
He watched it was so creeped down by it.

Speaker 2 (01:47:15):
Some weird things happened the next day, including his bedroom
door being locked from the inside. That he had enough,
he took the movie back in a trash bag and said,
I don't want it in my house. But we're not
going to change anything, and so they gorilla market it,
as we would say in the business.

Speaker 3 (01:47:34):
That's where they.

Speaker 2 (01:47:36):
Decided to go out and instead of filming the for
the trailer, filming the movie, or showing parts of the movie,
they showed the audience and their reaction. And it was incredible.
It absolutely was. They had three endings for it, one

(01:47:57):
a little bit more dark, one it's very dark, and
then the one you see. They decided to keep the
one you see, which led to what we have, which.

Speaker 3 (01:48:07):
Is an incredible movie.

Speaker 2 (01:48:09):
When they did finally release it, it was inch by
inch and one by one in theaters, and slowly but
surely people demanded it. It started with just thirteen college
town screenings, grew to over twelve thousand theaters worldwide and
became a classic. Your number five scariest movie of all time.

(01:48:29):
Paranormal Activity an absolutely amazing movie. If you have a
