Well I think. I saw 'd well oh. Well a lot of well well well well I mean I'm going to stop you there because the lines not good enough we'll have to get you back in a sack is a breakfast call possibly. Cast says on a Saturday. Take to the cinema once Paris spend and less than a sufficient amount. Believe something you want we will see. When you go. Through . The past oh you know. In your face parody. From the b.b.c. Radio Stoke morning I'll be well papers yes please John Yeah well look through those We're going to talk about Prince Andrew who is on the front of many of the newspapers that you could York this morning but 1st we've delved into the inside pages to have a look at some of the stories making headlines including the universities in the u.k. Who were offering degrees in Him Oh jeez. This is a truth how do you do it though John it's either one. How do you do it a degree in the Moji sense you have because obviously if you didn't know what degree you cannot you can do stuff in English language and write it down or typing on a laptop or whatever but you can do your whole exam in a in a mode while the courses feature degrees in several subjects math. Language Yeah marketing psychology and politics so the remark Jools on him oh gees if they were in each of those degrees yeah yeah and these these universities they're doing it are King's College London Edinburgh in Cardiff so they've got like the whole country covered have got it covered pretty much there so. I think that laughing face a major. I think it's not raised eyebrows or Meiji Yeah yeah. It is part of that part of modern life it's more sort of raised eyebrows and I give them honest. Is this all for one yeah. Budget. The other one. But it Color Me Badd. Cheaper than Color Me Badd. Now this is a story about you in the newspapers this morning when you read this to me earlier there are no absolute but I mean this is so apparently you're a bit in the office. 55 swears a week on average. The average. Of 30 conservative. We're looking at that per day with. Per record honestly terribly swearing. Sometimes I. Especially Jodi's around of Jodi's on the radio call with us this morning she's going down about 4 I can't do anything. She's going to be trying to save you some money on Christmas but in the mind the top flight we had this morning on the show completely flopped. Jodee quick go rescue it or I'll go. Yeah so this study says that 11 times a day people swear in an office in the top the top swear words that people use in the office is the f. Bomb is a really bad one is about one of the x. Bomb is the next one after that they've done a list of all this was interesting which ones that print and which ones are Ok we don't read them because some of them but you can't read any of them because that's . I read the ones that start out but it's in the sun it's Ok Can I just read this one of the time I just read the beginning would be you know. What about this one. What about a site with a k y then. Apparently 20 percent if you kayo Dulce this is sop to me the small I am shocked car ride a bike 20 percent of u.k. Adults can't ride a bike. So what one in 5 people can't abide and you say. You are just you've got a pretty long mind that's the math brain at work that check at the speed at which I work and see for a creative you could work in a bank my math at celebrity 5 days I. Tell you well in the old percentages game. 20 percent one in 5 says. It's impressive you get poached away from maybe carry on the . Countdown or not one of the big picture shows I was thinking about some sort of firm of accountants inquiry was happening but. There were no firm of accountants out there thinking we could certainly use someone like this thing is I mean I look at a cocktail dress so countdown is probably my look my logical How do you would be good to do in the lead as there's nothing more to the story really than 20 percent of u.k. Adults can ride a bike but say I can't believe that everyone can ride a bike that's a shocker So you know way one in 5 got my to buy a coffee get here right yeah see how good you are no don't do this so if 20 percent if you chaotic car ride a bike according to the newspaper survey this morning approximately how many u.k. Adults is that. How many you can it's other well that's you need to know that for the 1st night this is just giving you giving you the answer isn't it I don't know is it. 7000000 or so. Well they say $12000000.00 but my math says that would be that would be the full u.k. Population wouldn't. Talk about when about 60000000 now. But I'm not count and takes a long time 20 percent if 60 that 12. Days in that stuff you've got to be with some. I think they just use the whole number of adults in the u.k. So none of us can write about is that what you should really just like. To just play Queen Brian may have a go. This is better than what we were talking. About going to have to interrupt Freddie Mercury for the travel of. B.b.c.

All information pertaining to the issue and around this case is important. Just because nothing is done it does not mean that others around him don't deserve their day. In the b.b.c. Interview broadcast on Saturday night Prince Andrew said he never saw anything that struck him as suspicious when he was around Jeffrey Epstein He also denied having any sexual contact with an American woman which in your Roberts he says she was forced to have sex with him when she was just 17 Gloria All right is a lawyer representing some about seeing some alleged victims she says Prince Andrew must speak to the American authorities he described in his interview this weekend that Geoffrey Epstein was like a railway station a lot of people coming in and out he should have asked why are these girls here it's not something that anyone should close their eyes to these are somebody's children these are kids here the accountancy firm k.

Until 6 the soft rounding up all the day's news and events 26 minutes past 7. Pvc radio show. So we went to the. New songs. For the region. Some really talented young people. I was sitting next to.

I just saying it how it all came together it is just as you said. To just. Overall I give it a 10 out of 10 because of the courier Korean the way it was put together and also how they told the story really well I'll give it a 10 out of time because it's amazing how late how they learned all the songs and how they do it which I think is a Thank You know I think. Your kids are very good. Coming for a job John. Now they're not that good. I mean they're all right all right yeah there are 10 and 1213 but they're just leave it right because if you put ideas in people's heads like that then they were our work and then what do we do well you'll be fine because you'll be living off their wages.

That's the technical term for it's our job as a text with 3 studies or is it still. 8080 top 10 I can't cut you down I'm always you've got to get all these police. One minute 42 uninterrupted dance monkey music is so. Funny. No I maybe not one for you because I've just remembered we've got a rant to do about the theater last night massively last night and it ruins it for me and I stop the voices in my head again more and more angry as I go along right so we're in the theater watching Annie last night at the region I'm sitting next to Matt and to start with we've got this noise for the 1st 15 minutes. Chopped. Us. Now it wasn't crisps it was popcorn so you can't hear popcorn was designed for cinemas wasn't it so you can hear the crunch but it was not designed to be Chris pocket that just defeats the object of having a silent almost silent snacks to a. Container because then you can hear the rush to much rustling in so that that ruined it right once they stopped eating shit canned drinks and opening them in the quiet bits such as the worst but if you live in them then the. In the dance numbers since I was like yes I can relate all caught up in hides the yeah but don't do what they like here's a little radio I took in there in America since that year. But that wasn't the worst bit then right I'll say this is all these 2 women sent me on this once they stopped eating and drinking talking then just talking the whole way through it and again in the clapping if you were to go was a great woman I did that to deny said I was already was pretty much a great song in the clapping that's fine fine not when the dialogue can't hear him can't hear them some get wound up and then this is the worst bit for me and then when the blow came in the late people arrived the late people half an hour in 2 people walk in us on the back of the red on the back of our heads with our bags one . First then me why. Then right should be really embarrassed that they're late and that they just interrupted everyone's viewing cheery in a piece of dialogue again no sit down have a good chat Yes Have a good chat about what you know and I was up and so far get the phones out and then realize they're switched on the best which i Phone off we know that pacify not bear your phone or fine but just chat yappy Yeah yeah yeah there is an etiquette don't go to the theater to have tea obviously we went for a curry and you went to a chicken shop fly to stop it before you get there you can drink before you get there and then talk in the interval or afterwards about what you thought of it don't need a running commentary the need to say every thought that comes into your head at every moment and ruin it for everyone else because this is the it's a don't talk or the cinema are and don't have noisy snacks. A brief brief just to fill a lot better off your chest is off my chest Jason agrees with me. So you go to the theater to escape all the stresses of the day to chill out and look what it's done to you I felt more wound up than I did before I went and this is watching Annie which is an uplifting tale let me tell you it was a hard knock life of going to the cinema I feel like I've gone through a proper hard knock life to get out these orphans. Those rejections trouble. In his creative flow because we've got problems on the m 6 with overrunning roadworks we have indeed when they have been cleared now those are all internet back open again but it has left behind those long q.c. Still looking at around 40 minutes to get through 13 to 14 on the northbound stretch of the m 6 very slow at the moment throughout the whole time the a 52 wearing tin rode this intemperate signals out the rocks the road junction day road queuing northbound up towards the bottom of the southbound slow through portal Bank and also around towards hand church also looking very heavy now on the talks a to go in eastbound towards a McDonald's roundabout and very slow into Stafford on both the Newport road and also coming in on the a 4 for 9 mos Pitts a lot of people using that to divert away from the queues on the motorway but if you do see a problem call us 80121880. B.b.c. Radio style. Coming up later 67 tonight we've got Lee Blakeman got Stoke boss Michael O'Neill on the show as he takes his Northern Ireland team to face Germany and we catch up with the other 2 local managers John ascii and David 6 all 7 Blakeman crack in show $67.00 sports at 6 on b.b.c. Radio stout all wound up probably the bit least come down. Off Well to me. 740 for breakfast hello and good morning I'm trying to save you a bit of money on your Christmas shopping when Johnny has a breakfast this morning and loads of people have started already some of you can finish some of my mates that in one day like on Sunday done. It can just get ridiculous I can't say the list of people to buy for how much you have to spend so we've heard from a mom and briefly from a money saving blogger. She'll be back after 8 this morning and one way we can save is to make our own presents are like this idea this year we've sent Jodi to a local craft maker for a few ideas of how you can make your own presents and save a few quid Jodi where are you this morning oh yes good morning John I love say even if you creatively need vouchers and everything like that and I'm in crew this morning on western road and if the people who used to work at all have work to create I mean the old office block from Midland roller makers it's all the seat right spies and I can see that the smoke coming out of the warehouse and and the and the cooker there where they're making all the pies that it's Miles lovely as well and I'm actually in the boardroom and really grand dream with a huge board table and I'm surrounded it's almost like it's Santas grotto and I'm with Sharon Barton who runs a craft making business and there Sharon this is this is your area where you actually do your the bits and bobs here and this huge table that must be great for cutting out Oh it's absolutely brilliant for coats you know managed to quote for me to long on it before. Now this is Patricia Mary Cross which you run and I said that we it's almost like scientists workshop and busy here with with all your different bits Bobs you've got some lovely homemade handmade Christmas tree decorations just tell me a little bit about how how is it nice it is to give people a personalized presence I would think it's much nicer to give her give a handmade present it shows shows the love you put into it and everybody is giving them to is always appreciated fabulous and we've got some lovely cushions here with little bits where you can put your books in as well now I'm not great at doing stuff myself I still got a cushion from when I was at school that I didn't finish sewing and ended up putting some staples in and stuff and safety pins but how can we do it that we can make something but it may not look a bit in half there are lots of kits about at the moment that you can buy that you can use even for making something simple like cards buy a kit you can get all the stickers and back in and they look really nice for people or even a nice hamper by some handmade pieces put them all together nicely and that's always a nice idea as well so how did you get into it Sharon. When my brother was born my mum used to give me fabric and yarn to keep me Artemis chief because I wasn't quite at school age than and just carried on from that moment I always made all our clothes from than and when I started at school we did. Family of the sewing from that I have not stopped you see I can do cross stitch so more right there I think it must be a generational thing because my mum sort of made her bride's bride's dress her bridesmaids dresses in curtains do you think it is sort of kind of dying out with generations to a certain extent yes but there are a lot of young people now wanting to get started again and with my part time job I come across quite a few in work and I felt quite a few to learn to sew or net over the years as well that must be lovely and knitting as well we've got a gorgeous pattern.

It's made for us isn't it so we literally were playing Taylor Swift there and I got one on to like celebrity birthdays dot com to find out who shares the best there were no. While Taylor Swift was actually playing on B.B.C. Radio Manchester it's like the radio gods were just looking down upon him I know I know a lot had a couple of the names that I knew of and I didn't realize that the biggest of the lot was just being played that I'm going to I'm going to be throwing the around all the time now I'm not mentally you know we're we're twins. Yeah exactly maybe able to do that maybe once a week there was something else. And I was that Michael Owen as well but can't seem on the list so I'm going to double check that one alone when's your birthday it's 13 to December 30th December so maybe it is a day or 2 off but I always thought he was on the 13th Michael Owen's Wikipedia page or the. Vandyke 13th December 13th he's the day after day after the 14th OK OK OK I have. An Evil Knievel evil.

Be rested Taylor Swift on the what we said 30 December they will be sending her a card came from Boots to understand the text I share my birthday with Henry the 8th King Henry. Get these in one simple 3 Start your message with Mike 0802 and it double to 5 how we ended up in this round robin hole I don't know the world the sport is exceptionally busy as we speak isn't it is yes yes. This morning kind of we've had the England ashes 1st Test squad announcement for the 1st test this week against Australia best underscores the Don't talk to me but I'm going cricket going talk to me I was cocky for a day and a half. Probably shouldn't really mention that maybe I'll invite 143 runs Yes that is the number all over the and then there are 11. Crikey thout for $38.00 so that's the 7th lowest in Test history the lowest in. Your Hand So looking ahead to this 1st Test Scores of the scores been announced Ben Stokes is reinstate this vice captain after that phenomenal World Cup for England 1st time as vice captain since 2017 over the after the the incident at the Bristol night club and captain I would expect James and this in in this quarter with sort of the problems in having them over the last few weeks so he's in jail for sure also into another names as you'd expect and that's you Chris Woakes just Butler back in Stuart Broad playing to look like a strong squad to take on Australia for the 1st Ashes Test at its best and so I think we were in for a really good match works and brought on form at the moment as we saw taking wickets yesterday this looks like it could be a really good much good to see Lancashire couple in there as well you're going to be well represented DO YOU ARE THEY are the favorites north of England Australia I think in test terms it's difficult to call because the one day squad of England is as we've seen incredibly good and incredibly talented but I'm really convinced in this 4 day test with Island and I think that there are a few question marks over the opening batting partnership we don't know who that will be quite just yet at the moment anyhow but we've got burns in the squad and deadly in the squad so it could be those 2 opening up refereeing and so it remains to be seen how well they start I think that will be the key and the pictures as well will be really important to say how the bowlers get on on the pitch is really important to excellent and what else is football. What else is making the sporting headlines. To transfer news to tell you about Danny Alvarez could be set for a reunion with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City so he left. His club this week. That was muted 2 seasons ago before he went to P.S.G. Exactly right yes it could come around at the moment and City of a sort of looking to shore up that back line if you like that could be leaving. No sign of where he might be going just yet Vince a company has just left and they will be so to short of an extra defender a strong defender in place 942 years of age. He sort of getting on a bit I think 36 years old now Dani Alves and I think you'd be a great addition to city school because he's experienced he's still got the legs of Him God has a big fan of his could do wonders for them in terms of helping some of the younger players could be a new name we see in the city schools are all that nonsense I just want to see a city center in his lab again dressed in the clothes that he's normally dressed and Media City just make a very flamboyant make it easy for boys like me and you would be great to see that when it would be I think characters and what have you in the West would be really cool to see but I think the. City would be a great addition to the squad because of the experience and just the he's a big name player coming to the Premier League has announced very quickly before we go to tropical trouble we've also got us some big games in rugby league to St Helens against how the facts is the later game in the Challenge Cup semifinals Warrington against Hull as the 2 o'clock game how the facts of the 1st 2nd decided to appear in the semifinal since 2006 so it should be any good encounter at the University of stadium lights on are things going to fork over.

Tell me want your I guess I guess 77 you know just the one just the one the day in which they're born just above just a birthday Vincent when's your birthday. Trying to resemble 29 to the summer Hold on hold on hold on my team has been working hard behind the glass Wiley Coyote is. The 29th of September 1937. That's this is. Over That's right and I don't have. A ready hit the button for the song to start. I'm going to. The B.B.C. Was a public. B.B.C. Radio Manchester. Absolute true story from the woman who shares a birthday with Wonder Woman from earlier on this week I bring you the news now across the B.B.C. With an oppressed and good aften a Boris Johnson has revived the idea of the Northern powerhouse promising to unlock jobs and prosperity say by building a high speed rail line between Manchester and Leeds and he Prime Minister said in a speech at the medium of Science and Industry in the city this morning the investment would offer a colossal return and allow areas that voted for Braggs it to take back control it's the right thing to do and it's time we got this whole thing moving it's time we put some real substance into the idea of Northern powerhouse rail that's why we're here this morning and we want to inject some place into this so that we can unlock jobs and boost growth but I know that people can't wait and they want to see change fast they want change now takes a while to build a railway believe me they want reliable everyday services was speaking to radio mount Chester early yet Greater Manchester Mandy Burnham says he's cautiously welcoming the knees but we were promised this by the former chancellor George Osborne 5 years ago nothing happened was happened in those 5 years all rail services are gone backwards so I think people are writes a B. To be a little cynical book you know let's take it on face value I'll be watching very very closely to see if there's proper follow up immediately because that's what they'll need to show you know that promise to make the announcement and then there's real movement where President Trump has said that he and Mr Johnson are already working on what he described as a substantial brags that trade agreements Mr Trump said trade between the 2 countries could be worth up to 5 times more than it is now open as a goal chorus. Tom Barton says the leaders are hoping their personal relationship will help to conclude a deal the 2 men are clearly keen to put together a strong personal relationship with her daughter Trump referring to Boris Johnson as Britain Trump and yet these trade negotiations can take years and they are very often much more about the technical details than they are about how wealth the 2 leaders get along riot police in Hong Kong fired tear gas at protesters who defied a ban to March through an area where pro-democracy activists were beaten up by underworld gangs the demonstrations of a keys police collusion which the force deny. Thousands of fans of movies Saif I books and comics are in Manchester this weekend for the M.C.N.

In sport wants to city it currently to want to get home in the pre-season friendly in Japan with goals from Kevin de Bruyne a Raheem Sterling Warrington Aaron Challenge Cup semi final action today they take on Hall F.C. At the University of Bolton stadium languishes James Anderson both included in the England ashes to the 1st test of the 5 match series starts on Thursday a great amount she says whether this afternoon cloudy and rainy with highs of 18 Celsius live from B.B.C. Radio Manchester I'm on the Preston. Travel update can bring us the latest on the roads as it starts to get very slippery and wet this afternoon yes not great with the weather out there Karl comes about in just a 2nd one thing we have got going on as well as the ongoing dismantling of this crane in Manchester Street which means ministries currently closed from road to corporation streets and now the road works pretty slow really in all the usual routes as you'd imagine at this time of the day the weather's not helping matters as you say St Mancunian area where we got the road works as well Regent road around sort of Trinity way old very busy at the minute I got some delays on the M 67 we hear quite slow around. The moment and also around Benton island where it meets the M 60 as well just watch out. It's not great it's causing some treacherous driving conditions especially over the tops of the M 62 as well on public transport on the trams we've still got mana delays and all routes through the city sentries Cheeta area overhead line problems of course if you want to base is calling on the 161993649.
That is exactly her recollection of it is well. See couldn't. Have you. And. James Arthur Amery rewrite the stars which pretty much did a while back by asking what other planets we'd stepped on. A perfectly decent question which she would she today's generation are at liberty to ask all day so I think it is a good question because I know there's certain planets that we've got really good photos of. Yes thanks to all the space probes yet that we've managed to what our scientists have managed to collaborate on and send to the furthest reaches of the universe that's a bit if you have the slightest systems or yeah if you activity so having a great photo it's like we want to get there. Yeah well though it's meant to be a precursor to that is there when you consider OK as we're obviously we're talking a lot about the the sixty's lately because a 50 years since the moon landings but one of the surely one of the greatest television series ever has got to be Star Trek Yeah definitely a dream Roddenberry's him in creation fantastic theme tune fabulous cast wonderful production values and a different story every single episode different a different set of. Inhabitants of these other planets that all look different the different ways that they have to dress the different looks that they are to give them the different quirks Yeah but there is there are all there for it all the nose or whatever magination that went into that series was phenomenal and my dad just a love Star so I think brilliance that source of give everyone or children many gotten in the fog that he's aliens on all these planets because it is we don't know where this is or do we now have see is this nice question again do we know there's any life on any other planet youthfully now not currently so but do they say that isn't or they know they can't say definitively that the never has been called say that because there is evidence that there has been water and what usually where there's water in the action of the sun that creates microorganisms so much light of it because of that of the life of a crude form. That interests us so because we've always just think watching as a child starch or as makes you think that could be life on the could be aliens or life on these different planets the films you watch there's always something about an alien attack who knows I think Universe is infinite so. We may never know because it's just too far it's unreachable So we may never know but who's to say there isn't another planet with conditions like this that is served by a so on the moon. Is able to support a form of life which may not be a familiar want to or spot it is a form of life yeah but it may be a more superior form of life as well and also be more dangerous form of life yeah. So yeah so you know cats got a brain size not a struggle and this is going. Cats go out cats got a brain the size of a sprout Yeah so if you think it. Could be a plum it's a cat. Really think. More superior form of life so it could be beings with bigger brains. Yes yes it could be that artificial intelligence is long taken over Yeah yeah so evolved it's this so much that you could imagine. You know at this moment in time it's. Possible we need to pick a play makers most you've finished evolving. I don't. So there may well be a super league out there but I also know this one the Steve Roberts knows very well be leagued prides itself on being an inclusive sports it now boasts the learning disability Super League players from all backgrounds genders and abilities can enjoy playing in a concept of the sport the projects the true values of sports participation Warrington Wolves Dylan princeps player I wouldn't say this any rivalry. Seems sometimes you have a lot of a lot fun some form during the game as well like. Shake hands and stuff during and after the game or it's all just all of a law try time. From 6 o'clock. Tonight. Maybe some radio side. Oh it's often as many words to say. A simple thing. It takes thought and tie. To make up home. With music. Playing. For you. Britney. Dog. To be sure that you'll know you would I'm saying. Translate. As. Full up * * *. To them. And let me play. The stock. Let me see what spring. Is like. Soon puts. Them on. Another. The door. For. Lead. Tony Bennett Fly Me To The Moon Kevin Ngassa cuss. As the 1st popular science fiction program on American television was a children's adventure serial apparently kept in video and this video ranges which ran from June 1049 to April 1955 I always wondered Kevin thank you very much indeed I didn't ask but I have always wondered what was the 1st ever. Space related show but I didn't know it was that early Captain Video in the video yes go ahead of its time was that fireball X.L. 5. Mean seriously yeah fireball X.L. 5 supect thank him but I never heard of oh OK followed birds yeah you're using sting right yeah yeah the Jetsons Oh yeah oh yeah oh yes and that's OK My Favorite Martian no. Dr Who Yeah obviously yeah Space 999 yeah Blake's 7 yeah space Family Robinson. Swiss. Family Robinson You see I got D.M. Distance. I'm thinking space Family Robinson was. I think his name was Clifton Webb somebody with a bit more now will put me right on this was Clifton Webb. Who was he was Barbara Stanwyck husband in the 1950 film Titanic it was a very very famous film actor looked a bit of a nasty piece of work but he actually wasn't but. I think he was in he was the father in space Family Robinson and this was all in the seventy's. Was. Paid attention you know which we have here or maybe science fiction programme you know you're saying this is this this this. Yeah now why do we like to hear what we see that explains it that if you don't like Dr Who then you were not follows that you are not going to be interested in other science fiction programmes. Now you say thank you you've proved the theory. And I go back yeah I did like I did like Star Trek again actually cause it was on and I wouldn't come home to actually watch it right OK No that's true I probably agree I don't even know not what nice of the week Star Trek was all was it was a set I didn't I don't think I said I don't think it was a sensitive nice but it might have been but was it because it was only 3 T.V. Channels Yeah things have to be spread across the week didn't they so it could well have been a school night my IRA I liked you know the Western programs like the Virginian was a wise thing for me yeah that was on the big rally now to remember that Bob now oh thank Virginia yeah the Virginian Yeah. Was Trump us yeah I like only Smith and Jones of yes it is I just I absolutely love to which want to do a lot and Murphy both of them really really. Been there he was a bit thick. Well to put too fine a point on it maybe i do was the bright intelligent one Yeah but they were like very much a double act you need all they were needed you're in YOUNG Yeah definitely I don't know if I had a favorite just regular you know OK High Chaparral Yeah I just. Yes yes everyone's favorite what a nice guy yes. I forgot knows what I honestly don't understand just yeah branded Now now OK All right so anyway that's as far away I don't know so I'd happily watch the same science fiction programs as possible to get but I don't know if anybody else has any other favorites but ness says is a point of interest the last thing I read from a NASA page was that if all things go well with commercial partners and technology they hope to land astronauts on the moon again around 2024. However you know things have started to go quiet again haven't they because it's just just depend who's prepared to Fonda's and which administration is prepared to to be the one that says go because when President Kennedy famously said and I believe that we should land man on the moon before this decade is out which he did in 1969 but he didn't live to see us more's the tragedy. There was that there was a huge appetite for it because people thought well this is it we're going to the moon is no going back people will be living there you'll be able to visit there will be able to get there in a nanosecond sooner or later I think when you even 20 seconds you thought by this time people have holidays to the moon because you know I. Did think that I was going to clean the fields by movies like 2001 A Space Odyssey you know and E.T. And T.T. And it wasn't specifically you know absolutely but it but it really close encounters Yeah. Eating. They fuel this belief that there was something out. shows Yeah I always say funny so entertaining so full of life so sorry that is life ended the way it did. Did you get the series called alpha over the. Alf I'm. Just weak health degree and pictures and. It was in that then couldn't tell you know I don't I don't recall that one Terry but Sue's seems to have a flicker of recognition. Just catching up on emails Mark. Cinema projections Mark who was then. Just a short while ago says it was lovely to be in with Laura chatting about masquerades which we're looking forward to were going live directed by Paul go to see was going to great reputation with a cast that includes Roy Brandon Ethel Brown the story of masquerades one of the pivotal clubs in the Merseyside scene on the Liverpool scene in the 1980 S. On this runs 24th of July to the 10th of August at the Royal Court studio tickets 10 pounds. And wish Laura all the very best whether it's based on all the stories that Mark who used to be the D.J. a Masquerade has told her about life that masquerade in the eighty's lovely when Mark was talking about Paul O'Grady being there in his early days as Lily Savage you know the next thing is really savages all over the place and then is hosting blankety blank Yeah you remember yeah. That was an amazing thing to get a drag act hosting a major Saturday night show that had been previously done by Terry Wogan and then Liz Dawson Yeah you know then this was a real step into the unknown wasn't it how would a drag act from Merseyside go down as the host of this famous. Movie was the fact a player played a blind it was so funny because naturalism yeah is natural the thing is you know I mean is funny but he's naturally funny is invalid. Yeah you know it works and it works on so many levels and then he retired after that he retired Lily Savage very sensibly Yeah very Khalili Yeah go out at the top that was very brave it was time to move on from the US and then he did his show and then he does his radio show which I look. You know if you because it just is just the same as me yeah would you ever have Mohnish over and I did indeed if you. Lived down south obviously and can't say yeah very. But is OK here occasionally castle got family Yeah P.S. Yeah I'll see if he's see if he's around. Mike in Fort Lauderdale says talking about the national anthem being played at the end of the nice in a pub or club reminds me of the best possible Murdoch rode the tick Oh I agree with you Mike when I came home from the National We went down to the Atlantic pope for a great night of entertainment and at midnight the last song played was always the same with 20 or bellows on the walls it was singing in the rain and we all did to conga around the. Brilliant brilliant pop that was when I was leaving the Liverpool Echo. From full time I had my leaving party there. At long tick because I knew the hosts John and pass John very very gifted. Banjo player and the place was just tripping over with talent anyone who was anyone who was was in. People who were professional or they were just a matter talents Every want to just get up and do it. I can't describe what that place was like we had bases in the ninety's the Atlantic on the talk roads further down towards. Region road really of the regional road and you know fabulous John and Caldwell absolutely brilliant place but the night. I was having my leaving party. That invited all kinds of people including the cast from Brad who were filming. Further up the road you know in the streets running down to the river so but they'd already got so I walked in and lie Little's at the bullfight. Not I highly that's just a phase got a lot stronger like starved because they just come in for the filming and then the next thing it turned around and it was a gorilla Graham this was the era of. Like you really. Do Oh it's still there is it there is a hilarious photograph of me absolutely job struck but this one expected to really . Fantastic 4 really was so lovely to remember that my. Bit different from the from in with the national anthem. Terry in Winnipeg was a comedy about a funny little space creature and it was the Alpha was the initials an acronym for alien life form. That's what it stood for I have no recollection. It's also a picture yet like a long hair it's. Really it's making a walk let's take a long go we've all had yes with a big forest Yeah yeah why everything like that I don't know because when I think of Star Trek they had every combination did you hear Hi forwards a little forward snowfall Yeah I think is small is no yes and also Yeah I was thinking before mutant about the. Programs restructure do you think you'd watch them know because George that's watch them. Yeah yeah because I guess rice because I don't I start to have watch because my dad always has an idea for all the West nuns Yeah it's actually just about yeah they say that's exactly right yeah yeah I think I watch them because he watched their malls so them what I actually put them on the self you know meet at watch them and then you got used to watch them and you got into the storyline so even if it wasn't they you put them on the. Mall I didn't think I because I was in a cartoon place and I was I was never in his or we only have 3 television channels right now is there anyone alive you could argue or how many T.V. Channels we've got now if you consider all the satellite and freeview channels and mainstream channels combined it's almost impossible to come up with a number of how many T.V. Channels and yet when you look back at the creativity of the sixty's seventy's eighty's the wonderful outpouring on T.V. It's just oceans of things to watch you know it's diluted yonder of name I think it's a bit more diluted now and and to be fair a lot of those incalculable number of television channels are replaying stuff from the sixty's seventy's and eighty's. So it was an amazing time although we've got more T.V. Channels now there was arguably consistently better quality right across a take my point about that word dilutes the quality is diluted because it's never open mouth isn't there yet there are a vast oceans of Charles Joel time to fail here and that is you still get the arts C.V.S. Short See saw that you like wow this is amazing and you watching. Yeah I just think that she will that the few and far between and the same and also probably with Netflix and catch of T.V.'s You seem to I find you find you watch about excess yeah been huge barrier molding you watch the channels Yeah I thought I did right you watch the channels when you win this but you've already got half an hour space here and you put the T.V. On I was of the Navy. If you plan on the day you challenge chillum you actually don't look at what's on the chart exactly you go to the box office to you yeah go back to a reasonable doubt that's watching it then when you think about say it it never chose you had one C.V. He had no one you dad was going to choose the child I know I knew that and yet you didn't have or emotion you know very Yeah you know it and I think you know was a bit about why I had stayed in a 6 K. When they have got that right. They would want your children Sally was a yes. Yes yes yes. Radio measures such.

Radio suffer guess the one by even shug the morning go we can his knee me be with moxie a a bay on b.b.c. Radio some flak sunday morning b.b.c. Radio suffolk this is the wayne bay than show and this is the moxie a b. Movie bit looking at blu ray and d.v. Day way go 1st rosemont motive wayne we have got one of my favorite films of the year all the biggie a days you know yesterday wasn't very good to die with going to raise the bar we're going to rise at bar lot so we got sick hall rio true sold out oh all day of the sold out i'm dependent all why you by your blue right from this is the story of human traffic in across the us mexico border and now it's at to premium i'm room by the mexican cartels it's left a federal agent matt grave a and sykora oh out a $100.00 to fall on the war on terror i might no bones about say in that sykora oh was the best film of 2015 it was one of the best traumas of the recent years as well and that board a sequence if you've seen zakaria oh you know what i'm talking about i forgot to breathe youth because is just saw a Intends with Sue carrier to Soledad Oh the intensity is there yet this isn't like the 1st film's quick burst Instead it's much more of a slow build a slow growing sense of foreboding as to what is going to happen to these characters as they take on a special mission the idea to root out who is trafficking people across the border turns to kidnap in one of the cartels daughters and staging it like it's another cartel to escalate this war between border cartels It is an incredibly tense scene where they kidnap this girl and it becomes a bigger problem later on when Matt and Alexandra get separated and the latter has to ensure safe passage of the daughter back to her mother now unlike the 1st film where Alexander is a stone wall of emotion we find nothing else about him apart from me is this evil killer really with a car or 2 we find some backstory on why he's like he is and why he's doing what he's doing and there's a reason for it and it's something that hangs in the air throughout the entire film and he's very very haunting and it really makes that has standoff on the back and neck so the road trip that alley 100 is on it's a tough an uncompromising piece of work and it combination of knowledge that I think intensifies the shock value of the film of course this doesn't help the graver is being forced to do things he wouldn't normally do by politicians and this is a man who likes to get dirty but when he's told no he kind of ignores 8 so whereas with the 1st A Caro it's a very self-contained storyline it was a revenge flake this sequel spreads its wings wider it takes a storyline into politics and the dark elements of what Lisa Caro's do as well so it is one of the I think it's a very political movie underneath all of the intense drama and action as well you know there's a slower pace to it yet it still has that. Whole pound in intensity that will have you on the edge of the seat for the entire film so I know I keep saying that the 1st incredible piece of film make it the 2nd film while we never really expected a 2nd film to be honest is a woody companion piece I still think it's the best action film of the year even though I'm tempted to say it's more of a drama than action I'm sure this will fix it in your best of as we head towards the end of the secure area to now on D.V.D. Abbey Halloween this week then so let's get something spooky in school I would say spooky it's more gore than spooky the 1st purge the 1st purge So this is the story of America's 3rd political party the new founding fathers of America who come to power and conduct an experiment no laws for 12 hours on Staten Island in New York no one has to stay but those that do and stay alive will be rewarded with $5000.00 Now here's the interesting thing you were saying about the poet being quite gory there what I mean the interesting thing is the 1st film was a standard fare home invasion gory movie the the next couple of films were a little bit gory as well with the 1st purge and it's a prequel as well it's still a mystery but more than in the home but this is a political move in more ways than one and it's an action film as well it's changed you know the idea that there's no laws for 12 hours is quite a frightening one it's one that invokes fear not just in the characters but when you're watching it as well because you do have to wonder how close in real life is this getting before somebody does actually propose a purge type of event you know this film is also a reaction to everything that's happening politically in the United States right now and this is a movie about lower classes and especially black people who have become the hunted the white people in power have set this purge as a social experiment but there's something deeper something more rooted about. As well it is a purge for an entire race basically and it is brutal viewing as well so the plot revolves around several different fractions of a black neighborhood in Staten Island they're the ones who pray to God and follow him and hoping he will help them and then there is the opposite ones the ones who are going to stand their ground you know they've lived there for generations they're not going to give up their homes and they're going to going to give up a good fight basically there is also a new gangster generation who take it to the streets for very different reason so all of these storylines crazy very interesting plot story really and the several different themes as well there's also an element of black on black violence and how those that live in that community a trying to stop it and yet a force to allow during the 12 hours of the purge so as I was saying earlier you know it started as a horror franchise it's now flipped to an action series that has a political beating heart at it and while I don't think the franchise can continue in this vein of political movies I think the the 1st purge is the one that holds together the best throughout the entire franchise is very tough very brutal quite rough as well and it does hold a mirror up to the entire U.S. Country to be honest with you so I think it's rare for an action film to be so in Chuen with modern society but I think the 1st Persian a very good example of doing it very well the 1st Persian get out well it's not beyond the realms of possibility the way the world the world's going at the moment to see a game show on the telly based on is that he just you know you just see what you saw in this disclaimer right you live on the street and there's no laws Well what you're talking about think about it is almost the running man is well yeah yeah yeah they were down which was the good movie if you're in a game show you get killed in a game show you're out of it you lost you playing field life. Very quickly much before you go oh it was Halloween this week and I want a really good film. All that you had didn't review last year came out last year I'm a big fan of the horror genre and if you've seen this film love to your views and it's a film which I really enjoyed called terrifying I've never heard of this film terrifying art the clown is the slashing slashing clown and it's a modern movie kind of based on those those eighty's slasher films and it's really good so I'm giving you a recommendation this week OK right here's what I'm going to do I'm going to watch it next week and then when we're back on the radio Saturday I'm going to tell you what I think to it terrified it's on it's on Sky Movies at the moment.

Radio. With the way conferring with the consultant with. Mike and. Going on we had a brain scan across from the wizard of all sitting in if I only had a brain a song that I'd like to sing sometimes at the relevance of the sketch is that the enforced a roving reporter is out about for us in Wickham market this morning where they have held their very 1st scarecrow competition have only. If you only had a brain really yes or next door to you were was a guy much of the moment actually he's on his tractor cutting the grass and what's really nice about it they have a menu of how to put these things together the heads made a pumpkin carrots and walnuts the HAS NO SOME Obama strongly held in place with God straight except for except for the reasons I've done is to raise money for the local 1st responders and back with me as was quickened in who's got her big bag what's what's in her hand it's it seems and then all form of equipment you carry so as 1st responders we attend a serious life threatening. Instance emergences And in this bank we have an I.E.D. Which comes everywhere with us we have oxygen we have bad valve masks and everything really in there to support people to help people that might have had cardiac arrests or strike patients. So yeah we've got everything to support those people and I didn't really know what level of equipment he carried in this is quite extensive that mention the I.E.D. That's the year that the fevers I think people often call it am I But you say the oxygen bottle and lots of things here as well how do you get trained almost OK So we we spend a half only 3 weekends learning how to use that learning you know the the serious you know the injuries the incidents that we can attend and it's 5 the support that we're given and on the training is brilliant and we are you know we do regular regular training months late to make sure that we're up to date with understanding what we do which is which is really useful but there is a lot of equipment there's a lot of stuff to learn so for exactly the right reasons we're quite. Local to a little bit as opposed to rule really aren't we so how do you get called out of that you have a pager or a phone so as individuals there's 3 of us in Wycombe that have firearms and when a call is put 3. To 9 annoying the call room if we're wrong calls at that moment and the incident is suitable for us to go to we get a phone call we get a phone call and we get updates on and we leave the house and we got fantastic and that's really why we're doing this cracker. So we turn around your life in the back seat welcoming distractive behind him we have another scare card which Erm well I'd probably be making Sawyer with Ashley all the solder is in fact gone completely so it's more apples. And this was made by man we can't talk to him but we can hear him in the background he's playing bells this morning he is he is and he family have done an absolutely amazing job and we as you know it's fantastic that they won because it's what the effort they've gone through isn't my thing I mentioned we when we can market it's going to cook competition but the Scarecrow's you can go and find the markets available on the Facebook page yet the maps are available on Facebook we've we've got the most valuable for people to go and look now I think people keep them out to die so it was over the weekend so they'll be here until one hopefully the end to die and then I will vote in so really you need to get down here today to see them. People to support the 1st responders how do they do that OK so just go online you know we've we've got all our information or online just search for the work market community 1st responders and we'd be glad of the support going to our left and our right I think they do need a bit of support they're not really saying much and he looks he looks a bit blue he just looks yeah that they've held the shape I've annoyed my father still standing there brilliant despite all this order you know why and it's on until the end of the day possibly might see one some more as well. Each. Village she enjoys. Painting some wonderful pictures of that scarecrow competition this morning as. Have a look see if you can find. You . Let's get the latest news at 11 with KLIA Hetherington Thanks Wayne good morning so if it Police are appealing for witnesses after a woman was found with a serious head injury on Stoke bridge in Ipswich at 2 AM midnight last night the woman has been taken to Adam Brooks hospital for treatment stone bridge remains closed to traffic heading into town while investigations at the scene continue. The M.P. Velo store says the government has got the message about making sure that fishing gets a good deal out of Bragg's it the industry is hoping for increased quotas and restrictions on foreign vessels in British waters after we leave the E.U. But there are also concerns that fishing rights could be traded away in the brags that negotiations today M.P.V. Lowestoft said he believes that lobbying by fisherman has paid off they are concerned about what might happen in the future and they could be if you like the sacrificial lamb and if I look at the budget this week and the chancellor not seeing proposals for investing in new infrastructure he described fishing as a vital industry that one would I think it does indicate that the message is getting through in Westminster but we can't let up 7 of the 8 children injured when an inflatable slide collapsed at a firework display in Woking last night have been discharged from hospital one boy remains in hospital the Salvation Army in Woodbridge is appealing for sleeping bags and volunteers the charity says they're helping around 20 people in the town at the moment but recent demand for sleeping bags has left them short of planning applications been submitted to change of government center despite the store being expected to be closed Homebase in Warren Heath in Ipswich is one of 42 stores being shut by the end of this year or early 2019 but an applications been submitted to move the garden center from the side of the building to the back.
And those are actually very much against the very harsh policies of migration that the government is. Pushing at the moment so how important is the migration issue in your political ideology I would I would say that it is not that important and specially in the last campaign they have been discussing migration but in their mind and basically their main argument was that migration is a is a big European problem and Italy cannot be left alone in dealing with just felt consistently that the been left alone for the rest of Europe is occurring it's waged. Yeah I guess this is this is. This is the main feature of the discourse of migration in Italy yes from both from parties on the left on the right as well as the 5 movement yes but following the storm of the truce over 600 migrants were denied entry into ports in Italy do you sense that there will be some sort of collusion between the e.u. And Italy yet that is certainly what the minister of interior. Well being is looking for these this season of closing the poor in Italy is clearly an attempt to show Italian muscle in Brussels so I think he's looking for conflict that's for sure like the new government is certainly trying to strengthen the really in Brussels by not abiding by the rules by not behaving in the way it used to by. By not you know about not conforming to the expectations but that might also imply that they're behaving like we want out of you. Well with my just your gamble right they might want to lead the European partners to think that they want to exit Europe but that may be just a gamble they don't in their political program they never mention exiting Europe not at all. And not even exit in Europe. Separate. Europe is out of the question I don't think anybody in Italy is thinking about leaving Europe. Knowledge from.

News. I mean you're somebody through and this is the newsroom from the b.b.c. World Service less than a year ago the talk was of fire and fury like the world had never seen but in the past few hours the threats were forgotten and the insults replaced by a handshake like legal fees now the world has seen Donald Trump and Kim Jong un greet each other before flourish of North Korea and American flags and dozens of cameras President Trump arrived at the Capella hotel in Singapore as emphatic as ever. If you re read. From it this excess going to sleep. And it's going on and. We will have a terrific way to get there Mr Kim's words spoken through an interpreter we're a little more reserved. Please like you please seek it out he was last week if he. Would leave much in the words of Luke to follow. Within the legal logic we do need them but he would argue that we don't want to believe getting ready. To pass them on as it has on all names and he has told when he does this and practices work as often goes on all the way forward by the way home with him all of them and we are here today can draw moon speaking there through an intra interpreter Let's go live to Singapore and charisma of a Swanny is there for us charisma all sides will want to present this summit obviously as a great success and on the surface in many ways at least what we saw facing the public it did seem like everything went quite well. Well these are just extraordinary images in the 1st instance I mean as he was saying earlier just not very long ago these 2 leaders were trading insults with one another and the tension between them was being played out on an international scale but now we're at a moment where we have seen this historic handshake take place remember you know not more than a week ago there was still some doubt about whether this summit would actually go ahead at all and now we're in a situation where we've seen these 2 very volatile leaders come together stand in front of the international media the world the world's attention and have this very historic handshake but you're right when it comes to actual success in this summit we still don't know the exact details of what's been discussed in the 1st instance we've heard some of the comments coming out of President Trump and Kim Jong il but all of this is surface level comments we don't know the full meat of what actually in their discussions were that they've talked about denuclearization because they have such vastly different understandings of what that term means and whether they'll come to any sort of resolution by the time the day is done when we expect both of them to leave later on we got a bit of a feel for where we heard the speaking with the other senior flanking and President Dr said something to the effect of we will solve this big problem. I know we will so one can only imagine the big problem would be one of those main issues big sticking points like the did nuclearization issue. Yes indeed but at the same time you know as I was saying earlier it is a very different understanding on both sides what does denuclearization mean for North Korea President Trump. Has repeatedly said that he wants to see a complete and irreversible removal of these weapons from North Korea is North Korea willing to do that will there be a phased out stance or attempt at doing that from Kim Jong il that's not clear just yet and I think that will be the key component of whether we can eventually in any eventuality call this summit a success. Or we're calling it success as you said earlier the mere fact that they made it there and you know showed the sort of willingness to meet. Yes I think you know it in and out of itself the meeting has been historic on so many fronts Kim Jong un has come out with a whole new image if you will mean just last night he was on a walkabout tour of Singapore being photographed against some of the most iconic sights here this is a very different image of a man that we're used to seeing in a very far more hostile way usually gray factory sites or nuclear sites back in his back in North Korea but here he was out on the streets of Singapore being thrown by tourists taking selfies with Singaporean ministers in a sense you could say that he's sort of rebranding himself but whether or not there is substance to this new image of Kim Jong Il And that remains to be seen charisma thank you charisma in Singapore Let's get a bit more analysis now of the summit so far we can talk to our State Department correspondent Barbara player who's also in Singapore Barbara what did you make of those 1st exchanges between the 2 men. Interesting they started out quite serious and we saw a little bit stiffly an awkward Lee which I suppose is to be expected given the differences. Between them and given the the hostility of relations between the 2 countries but they warmed up over the period of an hour or 2 when they got to speak together one on one and then with their advisers you saw them laughing you saw them touching each other's arms Yeah Kim Jong un was overheard saying to President Trump the whole world is watching and they must think it looks like science fiction so it sounds it seems as if the They've got a bit more relaxed with each other and both of them are very invested in making sure the summit is a success or is seen to be a success for their own particular reasons and so on the messaging we're getting out of it is very positive that Mr Trump of course saying we get on very well will be able to solve problems this is very true if it Kim Jong un sounding a little bit less if you sue but saying you know we came through many obstacles to get here prejudices and practices but here we are and we can work together and that I think is paramount for both men to project what that will actually mean in terms of substance as Krishna was saying we don't know yet and whether that is enough especially to set to satisfy critics in Washington is another question because just hours before we heard Michael Powell the secretary of state making it clear that for the u.s. This denuclearization issue was the critical the key issue for them. It's most definitely is because really the Americans are treating this like a disarmament or nonproliferation attempt their concern is the nuclear weapons and the ability that Kim Jong un has demonstrated to possibly hit them directly with a nuclear warhead which is what he has been testing over the past year and threatening all along so that's the crux of the issue and they have kept a hard line on it at least rhetorically saying they want complete verifiable irreversible denuclearize. Zation that is in fact the formula that previous administrations have used as well and they say this time they'll push it even more strongly they will not give up any concessions until they see really serious steps in that direction they will not lift sanctions until they see serious steps in that direction so these are all issues of contention with the North Koreans 1st of all whether they actually agree that denuclearization means they not only stop producing nuclear weapons but reverse the program they have worked so hard to put together but then also the pace and timing of what the concessions in relief would be they want to very phased approach where they get some reward for some steps that they take so those kinds of things that we've been hearing about that for weeks and weeks that these are the issues and we haven't been told in any way despite the statements coming from the State Department that they have found a way around this week period to see whether there are any concrete details in the final declaration of steps that might be taken for example with the North Koreans be willing to give an inventory of what they have which they've never done before with they'd be willing to allow some inspections of declared sites that sort of thing is maybe what we might see in the declaration if it's going to be more than just a general General communique. Sure in Singapore thank you let's hear now from the other country with the biggest interest in today's summit South Korea and Robin Brown is in the capital for us Robin a lot of work went into the summit on the part of the South Korean government and they don't get to be there the day what's the initial reaction inside. What are your right I mean mean Jerry in this country's president is effectively the man that brought these 2 together it was him who met Kim Jong un earlier in the year it was the team that he then dispatched to the White House that came with a message that there was the chance the offer from Pyongyang of a meeting with Donald Trump and it was that offer that Donald Trump accepted very very quickly and I think you know. It is obvious to say that it is South Korea that has the most to gain from the prospect of any peace agreement and the agreement that may be reached on denuclearization in Singapore whatever form that takes going back to what Barbara is just been saying because it is this city Seoul 10000000 people in this country that still technically is at war with the North and that has lived with for decades and decades now the prospect of a military conflict a conventional one not just a nuclear one so we had a Midge's of in this country's president chairing his cabinet meeting this morning he delayed the beginning so they could watch on the t.v. In front of them that handshake between President Trump and Kim Jong Un there were smiles on their faces we spent some time this morning with some business leaders here in Seoul they were applauding as they watched the images on t.v. As well I think we may hear from Jay in a little later he will give his reaction dependent on what emerges from Singapore but just to get to this point is something that South Korea's leader regards as frankly miraculous in fact he said yesterday that the result of this meeting could be a miraculous one and he has continued to heap huge praise on Donald Trump for whatever reason but he said it was the leadership that was both powerful and decisive that has brought about this meeting yesterday but clearly huge nerves and he described how apparently had a sleepless night last night in anticipation of the meeting indeed thank you Robin Robin Brant in Seoul next to Afghanistan where there was a rare moment of optimism in the long running conflict between the government and Taliban militants a week long ceasefire declared Brother government has just come into effect Meanwhile the Taliban have announced their own separate but overlapping souse fire to last for the 1st 3 days of the Muslim holiday sure Sharif. Reports from Kabul about 300000 Afghan security forces including the army and police have been altered by President I shall Frannie to stop the attacks against the Taliban the government's weeklong ceasefire excludes all u.s. And al-Qaeda fighters the Taliban said they would also on a 3 day cease fire to take place over the Muslim holiday of IED at the end of this week. The militants said foreign forces will be excluded from the ceasefire on that they would defend themselves from any attacks despite increasing violence by the Taliban and I is sin major cities there's a cautious optimism here that a ceasefire with a group that Forte the u.s. Backed off in government for 17 years maybe a small step towards a long lasting peace 3 days prior to this cease fire at least $100.00 people including security forces and civilians were killed on over 100 were wounded in attacks claimed by the Taliban on the so-called Islam mixtape group tribe Sharifi 3 more people have been killed and he got out we're bringing the number of people killed to more than $130.00 the situation the Central American country is critical with talks between and to government protesters and president that the alert they got remaining at a complete standstill I asked her America's editor Leonardo of Russia how critical the situation is it's nearly nearly 2 months now and there's no sign of the situation coming to an end we had a sort of a lull when people are expecting president that he'll last there to make an announcement on whether he would join talks with the opposition mediated by the Catholic Church or not and instead in the early hours of Monday riot police moved into the streets of my mad were to clear the barricades where opposition activists have been blocking roads for many weeks now and remind us what these protests are about what started them well they started with the cuts to paint sions and this is a Social Security programs cuts that their population reacted to in soon became a protests a big challenge against his government because the police came out in the streets in many students who were killed and there's a big a challenge he's facing 11 years in power you know the version reminder of our main news President Trump the North Korean leader Kim Jong un or holding an unprecedented meeting in Singapore You're listening to the b.b.c.

To be the easiest way of doing so requiring the least amount of effort it's a good physical solution what we find is that fact that 2 cowboy hats have an indentation that perfectly fits the top of the head of the statue and it's a small and an Asian allows the hat to be remain connected to the statue as they didn't kill the statute back to be upright and what we find in the end is that statues that are standing straight up and down and they have a large cat sitting on top of the conventional wisdom was that the inhabitants of Easter Island died out after destroying their own environment by cutting down the forest but Professor lipo says recent research challenges that assumption and that the islanders live sustainably surviving on limited resources for more than 500 years he says this ingenious method of Rolling Stones up a ramp with minimal effort and manpower is another example of how they actually use their resources extremely efficiently Richard Hamilton Well let's return now to our top story that historic meeting of the leaders of the United States and North Korea soon mean one is the editor of the B.B.C.'s Korean service which is on the line from Singapore with the summit has been taking place I mean this was be something you thought perhaps you'd never see what's the significance of what you've witnessed today. And today we've seen the very 1st handshake between the u.s. And North Korea something I that's that we've never seen before it is very significant because we. If it goes successfully then there's a lot at stake for the Korean Peninsula for example the end of Korean War and the signing of the peace treaty the fact. That after being in a state of war for decades what would people there make think is actually achievable. When it comes to true peace on the Korean Peninsula. So what's only agenda is working out the details of the denuclearization from North Koreans and what the USA would offer in terms of guarantee of the security of the region however. Act with a new car is Asian and the very final of it will be quite difficult so a lot of skeptics say how much substance this summit with have but what's expected of the summit is that if they lay out these details there will probably be an agreement on this on a written form of agreement because there's a lot for charm and came down with that has put into the stomach so that will be there will be a part of the result of the summit now for North Korea and something they don't get to often see very much of what goes on in the outside world at least on their televisions they've seen some of their leader in Singapore which is quite unusual So what will they be making of this or what how much will they know and be exposed to about this. It will be a quiet significant change in the direction of what the government has been telling for 7 decades North Koreans have been hearing that the u.s. Along with South Korea and Japan are the enemy of the state now what they're saying on the state run t.v. Is that very leader shaking hands with Donald Trump and we came before that in seeing a pattern in North Korea media building up to this rhetoric and explaining to the people the necessity of this they have stated that they are ready for the changed Iran and the situation demands that all nations establish a fair international relationships is there briefly a sense that. People in North Korea are being prepared or told to be prepared for work. Where they're more open to the rest of the world. That seems to be the case and. The king's own kingdom in there and up until last year the focus was building the nuclear weapons to it presumably to make it into a leverage so that they could come to this in the Goetia to table with a powerful nations of the world now they seem to be changing that direction the focus of the government and its uncloak is on the economic prospects of the nation Ok Sue Meanwhile editor of the B.B.C.'s Korean Service joining us there from Singapore there's a great deal more on the summit coming up later on the b.b.c.

News. Thank you Jim Hello and welcome to News Day from the b.b.c. World Service with candy shop and Al and procedure and. If you listen to us in Malawi Zambia How are you doing today one Johnny South Africa and if you are. Good morning to you thank you for joining us so good we need Kampala and what I would say if you listen to us. Now this is going to be interesting we've got a story on your governor the political killing the Tribune coverage of the last couple of days and also Mr President have you heard about that competition is taking place and can. We start with our top story in what has been described as the Summit of the century Donald Trump and Kim Jong un have met for the 1st time in Singapore Mr chum said he thinks it will be a terrific relationship and Kim through a translator said North Korea had to overcome a number of obstacles to get to this moment it's only 9 months since the men 2 men traded insults now they're talking peace John Dilulio is professor of Chinese studies at you and say a university in Singapore Welcome to the program so where exactly are you. Yeah I know I went to so I'm in Singapore and I thought to be interesting to find the spot where Kim Jong un took his 1st selfie and so I'm in the flower dome at the Marina Bay sayings and right and what's the atmosphere where you are. It's very lively it's family it's kids I found a couple other. Couple other North Korea junkies who are also looking for the same spot and we we think we found the exact place with the correct flower formation and we took our own self right so you can't imagine a Kim Jong un taking a selfie can you. When you when you actually see that picture what was your reaction to it. Well you know everyone supposed to not be hopeful. But as someone who's been studying North Korea for a while I have to say this is new and this is very positive because you know apart from all the nuclear negotiations which are never going to be easy there's something else going on here which is Kim Jong Il and coming out into the world doing things like walking to this flower dome and taking a picture with the Singaporean Prime Minister and smiling and engaging and that has huge potential repercussions for his country and for its relationships obviously with the United States with South Korea with the international community and so we can't forget that there's another thing going on besides denuclearization sure some analysts have said that did this is high on symbolism and that very low in substance would you agree. Well no I wouldn't because again that analysis only looks at the question of you know c.v. Ideally complete verifiable irreversible denuclearization then you know whatever the North Koreans committed to and what timeline you know and obviously that goes on and we have to see what they say coming out of this meeting and then what they do in the weeks and months to come but people really are missing another element of what's happening and you know to call it symbolic is dismissive rhetorically but this symbolism matters because what Kim Jong un is doing is he's changing the nature of the regime and he's changing the nature of. You know North Korea's place in the world because again this is not just stuff for our consumption you know we're seeing these pictures on the cover of the North Korean newspaper so he's sending dramatic Lee different signals back to his countryman about their place in the world I just wanted to read. This Anna fields who's covered the North Korea for 80 is she wrote this in The Washington Post she said this moment feels different she said in so many ways this Millennial referring to came Jungen is ready to do things differently and she also said this is don't 1904 this is not 2005 this is 2018 and she said she just feels the process feels very very different from the pos Would you agree with her. Yes Anna Fyfield is absolutely correct you know some of this is our problem we have these ruts of imagination we're used to seeing or screens in a certain light and you know there's a lot of people with scar tissue in terms of negotiations that haven't worked and a feeling of being burned by the North Koreans and you know I've been to North Korea I've talked with North Korean officials in an unofficial capacity and you know they have their scar tissue as well but what we're seeing is a set of leaders including President moon and in South Korea including you know the Prime Minister Lee here in Singapore who are encouraging conjunction and Donald Trump down a new path and we need to be open to change and not just see the patterns that we fear from previous experience fair enough professor to Do You Really Are you convinced very briefly that this will be a terrific relationship as the president said it would be. Well the president has given to hyperbole but this is a different relationship between the United States and North Korea and the last thing I'd say is you know a critical question is is the American public ready to go along to follow Donald Trump's lead and change the way it sees North Korea and relates to North Korea so that's a very big question and that we also have to see the answer to it John Hillery professor of Chinese studies at Yonsei University in Singapore thank you very much for joining us from seeing a Polish go to come to the time that is. 738 and Allan construed your comic shop we've you on mused No you bring me beauty go we've been telling a bit ago we've been telling you about he was a leading member of the ruling national resistance movement to new Gunda and he was laid to rest yesterday he was gunned down along with his brother near his home in Kampala on Friday I didn't know who's behind the model they're going to be president you were 70 who counted Mr Because one of his closest buddies told what's was of the funeral and you want and you want to give society father a rest of the seed that they would lose let's also hear from someone else was at a funeral member of parliament in President so that his and our own party people would joins us from Kampala this morning good morning to you sir thank you very much for joining us I just wanted to could buck to the commencement of the funeral you basically said that people were threatening you and that even within the presence of Parliament you were being threatened. What did you mean by that. Thank you for stinging this morning show. It is true I want just so what if thread is not only in me this thread is it must have been members so. It is and it was such an amendment be it. He started it in public if threats. Invade your station if the trades made even televisions an issue when it. Or don't according to an event good year according to. These people saved it open but let's show you how little kid you missed all growing listless to speak . To eat from the beginning that this investigation is still being completed you are arriving at the conclusion that it is because of you and we stop because support for the amendment to the Constitution to a lawful president 70 still give that do you think you'll pointing to that of the reason for his death why of course I don't want to said that I mean to share it with this issue actually I would say that I'm trying trial of the information which would have hated him it helps that your agency to begin to investigate the fundamental question if you threaten someone's life why shouldn't you be questioned why shouldn't you record his statement in court East and like I said yes that basic have index Q didn't want. So this was the question which I'm holding up until it's time to set up it yes that con such passed or not it also it didn't. Want that question so are you saying I'm not the people who threaten the people who've been threatening people like order Barney to who is another member of Parliament and people been threatening Ibrahima beauty go read in Parliament on the fellow parliament. Some of them a fellow members of Parliament some of them are members over to public because like out of state this court you know as I understand dance is in the public domain it's not about saying it's. We had a fact and that's why we're only saying that we want quote up on this issue about it doesn't this country Police me full up some will be sinful mission that's my point you feel sick and I ask you and yes. Well why would you seem to quadruple it Brame did it but it. Didn't have in it did treat someone if I have a quarter we Someone was the one person whom would even begin to pick up a quarter we've. Noticed that some discretion in the fundamentalists you say that get out of it would if that's true but if question is why have but he. Let me also . You are a member of the government in power at the moment when he's a problem why could the government protect people like a bitter pill to support. Cost of War Also once it sort of made a guy like you an ordinal I did want to get that was a fuss up what government try to give to him now but to high level it did miss discriminants is what that is this in much they traded him they were able to know. You could maybe come out in that up with a mission you know if you know it as well you would not be slowed down under shot him thus in terms of government trying to Isaac question he had to say today at these brother was. The fundamental question which I want to have it all out to say we I want to address you if you will you we must learn to respect you posed or pinion on day 5 didn't use him but only says no money well no opinion this kind of things I don't want beginning with the why did you Dolly 100 what you pray my beauty. Right I don't cause death rich I've been happening my that's been happening but this is going to wonder what your brain in my own thinking I might we still. Wonder about but if that was politically if this is literally what you did it because of the strong support I can be harnessed I am a member of Man Now today so. Let me ask you this yeah I use kid I am that's true I'm takin the other plus I mean yeah I am. Ok thank you for sharing your thoughts also I hope that you will remain safe we've been speaking to people when both parliament full county Ca took district used to new Gunda now president who will Kenyatta Watch out a new 26 episode reality t.v. Show in Kenya is making for women who want to compete for the crown of Ms president the show aims to promote gender equality and and inspire women to take on leadership roles a friend is from the show's production company a media focus on Africa and she joins us now welcome to the program Penny what's the idea behind this this show. Well I'd like to say Mr President is about 3 main things 1st it's boats helping women to take part actively in democratic governance public Savvis and civil society leadership and Mr President it's also about uprooting culturally and historically entrenched biases against women that's you know hinder them from taking part actively in public life and leadership and Mr President is also about snot leaving anyone behind because a lot of times people tell me that we're leaving men out but no men are very much involved in Mr President because men can be men ties and men can support women on the walk place in a home right I was very struck Friday by what you said in an interview online you said we are not looking for beauty queens we are looking for women who are leaders it's not just putting women on t.v. But putting them through leadership training and mentor ship it all sounds very serious will it be fun though. Definitely it's going to be entertaining to watch women trying to share the best of their leadership talents and capabilities and the reason we have been stressing that it's no it's about it's beautiful faces and t.v. It's because there is a stereotype that women have to look good and women have to look beautiful but apart from looking good and being beautiful which is perfectly fine women have so much more to offer and if you've been watching the press quite for some time you're able to see some headlines that only focus on women's loops and and this is the Stuart type that we want to break we want to say that women are not just people who look good but they're also strong leaders who have so much to offer in government in c. Will see. And everywhere else where they take leadership roles but again for any I mean when you say that we don't want women to only look good but also be intelligent isn't that lots of pressure though on women to look good but not only necessarily have to be seen as intelligent but also to be beautiful again. I don't think we're putting pressure on women what you are trying to do is to breaks gender stereotypes that have been there and this 2 types and looks is something that has you know been thrown at the team working on Mr President quite a lot because people keep saying you know if you're putting women on t.v. Then I think just going to be they had to look good and that's the reason why we have to keep going back to that debate and I don't think we're putting pressure on women what you're trying to do and these t.v. Show is to put women out there to give them publicity to give them a chance to show off their skills and unfortunately some of the things that might come up with putting women on t.v. Is people concentrating so much and looks because naturally television is about looking good we country run away from that but also we have to stress the fact that it's noticeable Lukes you know looks is just one of those things that is on the sidelines so we want to stress on the fact that women can take up leadership roles and that's what this president is all about in this is not just about. Thinking about 3 men it's also about the spirits of the Kenyan. Which we require as the 2 thirds gender. Implementation the Kenyan parliament has had a difficult time implementing these and the pharmacy of action which is a radio that is a good step but we think more than just a farm action we need a t.v. Program that's also entertaining and this will go a long way in inspiring young women and girls and also men to see that women have a last 2 off Ah Ok and there yes or no on supply do you actually see a female president in Kenya any time soon. Yes right so I have a friend he thank you very much for joining us news is coming to you live from London all in concert and Conny shop with someone concert is listening from Kampala if you want to correct me some would need a place to Kinshasa not to Kampala ocean com paula most of which you know it's coming up to 12 minutes to 6 o'clock here in London and President Trump.

So that news certainly been hearing over the weekend about Oxfam and just a few members of staff in Haiti paying for sex while supposedly helping local people there as that dented your confidence in supporting a charity like that or others coming here from Rich in Brighton says I think charities should be more accountable I'm involved with a very well known one seems to pay huge wages to its full time staff but is not providing the frontline service that the public donate that money for and we're expected to do I'm very surprised that this is not happening says rich in Brighton also talking about that dear coal which is on the way in the Ashdown Forest and how you feel about that the idea is to try and reduce the number of deer related accidents on the road through Ashdown Forest and also improve the health of the forests itself earlier I was talking to Dr York in Langley from the Wildlife Research who's a wildlife research consultant and he's leading a project on deer and vehicle collisions looking for a simple answer. You've got to do lots of things you know the cull. Will be needed to stop numbers increasing you know if we don't call them did numbers will increase by about a quarter Yeah I guess it's a reaction to that from Wendy in Seaford 1st of all hi wendy Hi Dani I'm going back 30 plus years now I used to live in a village in some fishing where there was a lot of forest around and lots of deer and the ruling there was if you killed a dinghy on the road it was your responsibility to movie and well we would do although it's not make up on never killed one but the villages if they did they would just ring the local butcher and we knew a day had been killed because venison would be on the in his window the next week so. I know the law has changed now apparently but that's what we used today yeah I think some people would say wince at this the idea of eating roadkill but others you know yes they swear by a little bit line and also perhaps the traffic levels and this was less of a problem there back then 30 years ago what do you think about what we should do today well I don't like calling because I don't like killing any animals but I think something should be done obviously but I think the fence thing is probably the best idea because like you said earlier they were there before we were. So it's about protecting them from vehicles and if they're becoming overpopulated damaging the forest then perhaps it is that's a better reason to be carrying this out rather than you know protecting the front of our cars from getting damaged I guess that's a point I don't I don't know the answer really it's difficult it's reducing especially if we genuinely had 30 or 40 mile an hour speed limits that we're here to through the forest is a simple solution yes yes it is the only trouble is people don't abide by the rules we were coming home recently from Kent and my husband had. An app on his tone that tell you when the. Signs are coming up you know the cameras are coming up and when you have to go down to 30 miles an hour so all through the villages we were going 30 miles an hour and being overtaken by cars that did not abide by the rules and I think a lot of cars don't take any notice of the average spillage check that's the answer because that changes behavior doesn't it because people don't have points on their license that might be cancer does it really made a difference to us with that app on the phone Yeah Ok and 30 miles an hour is really slow you don't usually go at a go that slowly. It's a difficult speed to get to I think that you miles an hour and then of course in Brighton You got 20 in some areas we are mean I think sometimes I think people treat the 20 like well Ok I'll do 25. To 35 so you would use the risk of injury greatly by traveling at 25 rather than 35 you know technically you're still speeding bar. Less than 10 miles less than 35 isn't that that's a yes Ok I don't think we've solved it when the but thanks for flagging all that up for us Elizabeth nice born now hi Elizabeth. We will say this well 1st of all I have your program so. This I just listened to this last caller. Talk about spirit but I what I'm going to say is probably might already be mentioned I happen to be traveling through. The Forest yesterday and it was a beautiful day and I was traveling probably 35 purposely because I had just recently heard about the number of. Animals killed there and there was a 4 by 4 right behind me and he must have sped past me 60 miles an hour I should think and I just feel that if there were cameras. And I think this is certainly a very good money making camera in Holland I think it is yeah and I think it's probably the one that is the the greatest amount of revenue. For people speeding It's a 30 mile an hour limit there I think there should be 30 miles an hour it's not a long stretch to Forest I think it should be 30 miles an hour at the very beginning and at the end and I think it should be average right so when you're doing your 35 yesterday isn't a 40 or 50 or 60 that was 40 or 40 I think Ok so your future 50 there which I think is much too far right so if you're a few miles an hour below the speed limit then somebody is too impatient to drive behind you have to blast pos you cause a 4 by 4 of course I think the day will just bounce off and that nice I find that there impervious in a little safety cage that I also think that you know this is a lovely forest as lots of these natural places are and I think this is part of. The same very if you've come across a day a lovely and a life when I'm talking about yet one that's just been killed and I just. You that it wouldn't hurt anybody to travel be concerned I didn't Can somebody do the math for me and work out the distance that this would be say we make it 30 miles an hour and we have an average speed limit somebody work out the mass for me how much of the road would that be and how many minutes extra would add to your journey doing 30 through all of that with an average speed camera to make sure you do versus what it would take if it was 40 If it's probably going to be like a couple of minutes maximum So is that worth it to the maps for you now thanks. It is such a short distance and I just think it surely wouldn't hurt people just to spend a little bit more time traveling so what is a lovely part of it and for the sake of of the deer Yeah and also for humans because the accident really accidents collisions involved and agree that on the basis of saving. Car damage but poor Yes because the guy in these collisions and also sometimes humans die as well thank you very much Elizabeth any spawn there baby Sussex and b.b.c. Sorry 60 Minutes past listing is the summary summary. Moving on moving on another topic now and we're talking animation next animation from the earliest films British based animators have harness the power of pictures to tell stories sell products and share ideas for over a century animation has given us much more than just entertainments with films reflecting the political economic and social circumstances of their time so what's made British animation special the British Film Institute has put together a new history of British animation looking at those who've drawn sculpted Snit stamp posed clicked and scratched their art into cellular life to tell us more jazz Stewarts is the bare phys curator of animation joins us now hello j.s. Good morning Downey immediately got you to talk about that kind of animation I am thinking Tony art and more. Very much so certainly something that has a study in for me and you see pictures of the founders of the album studio day Sproxton and Peter Lord with a very humble set up with their lump of plasticine a kind of 60 millimeter camera and filming morph and they have turned into this extraordinary. Industry in Bristol I saw early man with my kids this weekend and loved it and to think about the kind of exponential growth between those 2 is quite extraordinary but also I think back to you know when I was very small in your Tom and Jerry and your top cats and cartoons like that I absolutely loved it very much so I mean this certainly started favorites for me which are a reference to the directly in this collection and I was a big fan of of him we in particular as a kid it watching that and realizing as I grew up that the guy behind Bob Godfrey and that the scriptwriter for that style hey were they collaborated together on some films which are very different I'm alarmed some interesting 6 comedies that came out in the sixty's and seventy's and some of those are gone on to play a collection but then also realizing that one of an Oscar 1st British animation to win an Oscar for a 30 minute animated musical biopic of isn't barking Broun l. And realizing the sort of wider scope of what animation could be because are just well as I've said top cat and Tom and Jerry they're American of course and British animation so they won't be in your exhibition So what are you trying to show us and to prove by putting all this on display. What we have is that we have this new sort of digitization and the realty to put material online has been fed through things like lottery schemes that enable us to sort of mash digitization projects to bring access to film heritage in a way that has never been before so we have something called unlocking fill heritage which digitized 10000 films 5000 from our own collection 5000 from from regional archives and commercial partners and we were able to put these material into the beer 5 player and also. Different programs if you look on there some of them are broken down just by region you can look on a map and type in where you were born and find out films that were made to their bikes in different areas others are about where you could start of filmmaking or particular way of filming the other sort of. Topics and in terms of sort of representation of black life in Britain over the years and this is one that is concentrated on on animations are so over 300 films that we've Who night into 8 little collections to help give unprecedented access to the history that is little known and well worth here rediscovering be a fighter all dot u.k. Is the Web site you can find them on their I mean it is these free to access force going to be equal just go and see these yet so the majority of these films are available for free and if you go to player dot b. If I do all the u.k. That will take you directly to be a 5 player and the huge number the big majority of films are available for free to the link at the top but we've also if you do have sort of friends and family are interested overseas there is a smaller collection available on You Tube an animation collection which are available to share worldwide these films are available only in the u.k. At the moment but that's yes that this huge numbers to explore Tell me about a couple of your favorites jazz and why they are favorites I think a definite favorite Going back to the Gulf in a sense is a film called United Kingdom which was something that was made for a project at the start of the. European community in 1902 and it could no Europeans with the idea was to get each country to make a 5 minute short that would introduce each other to the other partners and not many of the films were finished but one but governor made a film called United Kingdom which is sort of uses a musical soundtrack to distill the British line thing into 5 minutes and another favorite of mine is very different is something called jar the germ which was made in 1927 which was a film about sort of public health and safety but what's really nice about this film is really early use of something called rotoscoping which were you filmed. Live action footage and then traced and drawings and they used a kind of a dancer from the 1920 s. And traced directions on the little germs of these germ character these little flapper with kind of flapping arms and that's really quite extraordinary to watch Wow Couple incredible films thanks for telling us about them just that the b.f. Ice a curator of animation plaid dots be a fighter then the place to see those I was to it was to about the end there the film United Kingdom and also the 1927 gyro the jet speed she saw 6 n.b.c.

Sorry in the news today the body of a man has been found on ash that common in Sari is thought to be that of 70 year old James Middleton who was seen for the last time in July of last year there's been many days of searches in the area and our reporter Peter Stuart has been there this morning Danny's a glorious morning here on ash day to Coleman and we've got quite a heavy frost we've got some puddles here which I'm standing right beside which if frozen over but somewhere out over the course of yesterday a body was found and police do say that they do believe that to be of the missing man Jim Middleton Now let me give you a little bit of background as to Jim's disappearance his real name but very well known as in the local area and he went missing back in July last year left his home address in Epsom which he's contiguous to to ash date and was last seen travelling towards the ash stage common area on light blue t.g. a Breeze for mobility scooter and you know what that space. The thing which is really kind of caught the the public's kind of imagination and concern a lot of news stories approach known by one kind of small nugget of information and the fairy fact that there was a man missing on a mobility scooter which was a particularly of interest and help kind of get that publicized which of course the police and Jim's family and friends so desperately wanted and indeed a lot of people came out from the local community over the course of the summer and into the winter as well searching for Jim but without any success the search continued over the course of a couple of weeks ago back on the 22nd of January the police and other specially strained search units sorry in Sussex search and rescue volunteers and so on came out again going through the undergrowth and the reason they came out and what you might think would be the the dead of winter was because well because of those seasonal changes a lot of the undergrowth had been have been. Kind of deaden down and it was much easier for people to actually see any clues in the in the undergrowth able to see further and so on without the vegetation without the leaves on the trees and so on and the Bushies to see further and to see any potential clues and indeed it was yesterday that the body believed to be that of Jim Middleton was found police aren't saying exactly where but it was known around about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon by members of the Sussex community search team police just saying at the moment in the vicinity of Ashdod common and that blue mobility scooter was found in the area as well as common is huge it is sprawling So we're not entirely sure ourselves where the body and that mobility scooter were found. But I guess that's immaterial the fact is that it does seem as though Jim Middleton has been found Detective Chief Inspector Preston issuing. I do believe the body to be. Treating the death as on explained issue some more information course and his family has been informed. So with them at this difficult time. I feel sorry for. Some. It wasn't bad of course dedicated to the cool. Side it was all right. We'll be relieved he and I are in a confined space in the over the man. That's very good was it tough you wouldn't believe he wouldn't believe it my wife said my God you're boring when you're ill. And when you know.

Ates met below I doubt Sunny and 87 in Rancho Bernardo So who you going to root for on Sunday the Chargers or Eli Manning I'll give you some time to think about that Chargers and Giants this Sunday you can catch it on c.b.s. 8 at 10 in the morning the 5 at 5 with Roger Hedgecock and Brett winner bowls next am 760 talk and breaking news. For you. Rogers 5 and 5 with red cross your mind it was replayed it's reverse is it wrong go down is on Am 760 k s m b Well good afternoon and good evening Roger Hedgecock How are you my friend Well hello Brett I will not be rooting for you lie Manning or for the truth. For 2 separate reasons. You know you what you've got to hold old grudges out of the grudge against Eli Manning is ongoing that must and must endure and it must go on Roger I mean for sure that fact. You know you sent me an email and darn it if you aren't exactly spot on here Raj that didn't take long did it just hours like less than 24 hours less than 18 hours maybe less than 12 hours after California voted to become a sanctuary state that law was signed into effect by Jerry Brown Well I said I says they're going to be turn and there are a tension to the Golden State right. Well yeah and the ice director has a point here the acting director is Thomas Homan and he said. If you in California you know there's new laws b. 54 Jerry Brown's touting it he signed it he said. Rick with law enforcement on a criminals who are who are you know not detained now for us then we're going to have to go after those criminals in the neighborhoods in the workplaces because we're still going to go after him so now you're going to have the chaos of the federal law enforcement invading neighborhoods and workplaces to try to get dangerous criminals out of this country rather than working together with local law enforcement in California to get this threat out of here it's a it's a it's an obvious next step to remind California you know there was a purpose to working together so it's kind of interesting it's sort of like that issue that came up up in l.a. With Jimmy Delshad when he was when he was assassinated by a gang member who was here illegally and we heard all about the l.a.p.d. And their Special Order 40 Rotch where they would you know they're not going to bother the the community they're going to work at the community home and he's basically saying there ain't no Special Order 40 for the feds we just go where we got to go. No no exactly right and you know we can either do this the easy way cooperative way so that when criminals are detained then you know you you call us you detain them until we get there and then we get them into the deportation process and we get them out of here or we'll just keep to keep track of the names and where they're going and go after him wherever the else they are in those neighborhoods which you think you're you know protecting and keeping safe with your with your local order it's simply going to be worse and you know it points out the fallacy of liberal thinking I think the idea of the well we're going to protect these people are going to. Who are you protecting you're protecting a bunch of criminals we're not talking now about average in the know we're talking about the detainer of people who have been put in jail for a whole variety of criminal offenses and here's here California is now setting up a lot of protect those people amazing Well but but Roger Kevin Deli on will tell you it has been quoted in a number of articles he has said things like we are going to protect our vulnerable families and not destroy our economy. Yeah well the economy the underground economy of the illegal worker is depressing the wages of every citizen and legal immigrant in my state and Mr De Leo knows that the the the fact that ice is trying you know that he continues to to try to lump together all of the you know law abiding Yes legal immigrants with those that ice is trying to target which is of course the people who have not obeyed the law and are in jail and are and now cannot be detained for deportation by ice under this law that's the specific we're really old he could throw as much sand in our face as he wants to it's not going to abate those 2 facts I made the argument earlier I said I know the depressed wages aren't which is hugely important argument but I would argue there's even even something more fundamental than that because if you've got people who are working for $0.90 an hour picking stuff up in the ag zones of the state or are working for substantially lower wages in sweatshops or doing construction trades for substantially lower wage you know there was a heck of an argument made for slavery by the South Raj you know if we don't pay these people either picking cotton our profit our profit margins really high and if we just can pay people $0.90 to pick strawberries then which which means that essentially the illegal immigrants that are working to quote keep the economy going according to Kevin Deli on really are are subjected essentially to wage slavery. Well that's that's that is true it's not 100 percent as the old classic slavery would be but to the extent that illegals are exploited by you know and scrupulous employers of various trades to to be paid less the margin of less than they would otherwise be paid if they were legal or citizens is of course the margin of their slavery we brought this up yesterday the whole thing about North Korean workers in the fish exactly processing plants in China where they have to send back 70 percent of their wages to the North Korean government well that's a form I'm sorry that's a form of slavery you know I have people who have approached me saying Well Roger that's all well and good you have that opinion because what about the high end earner in the United States who 40 or 45 or 50 percent of their w. 2 income is going into into the federal government is that slavery. But there are shades of gray here but be Ok sure you could argue that that may that's a little that's a those are softer velvet handcuffs Roger versus the changing to a bad you know one of Sammy that's a little different. I have got a question for you here I'm a little mad about this some read this story in the you today and I don't I'm mad at Kevin Faulkner about it and I'm mad at the City Council about it because they knew for years that happy was going to be an issue they knew that this was a health concern and now this is about to strike that's breaking the camel's back in my book when when the trolley the m.t.s. Workers have to go to their union bosses and say we've got a problem the people you're naming a deafening on the trolleys and on the trains and on the buses they put down newspaper and they go to the bathroom in the middle of the trolleys in the trains in the buses many These people have passes who do this at this point I think this is a profound failure of city governance Raj and I feel like with 500 people infected 17 people dead you've got body count here and if we're going to be down to allowing people to do this on public transport and there's no consequences we have lost the war. Well that's right you know were bending over backwards not to admit that we have a very serious health outbreak here it's made national news and l.a. Is now frightened to death because the obvious thing is going to happen here is this is not a happy outbreak involving food handlers right food this is transmitted person to person this is a quite different and much more serious if you know what you said as an series have been as happy as series to start with but habitat is a transmitted this way is much more likely to be a more widespread problem so you know they're going into these camps and trying to spray down you know use disinfectants and get rid of the garbage and do all that kind of stuff that they're doing but and they're getting blowback from street activists on even doing that yeah. Oh you know something is there a constitutional right to deaf Acadia I probably I just don't think so I mean let's get some backbone Yeah you know another words deficit problem you know. But if an ordinary person yes went out of deficit on the trial they'd be arrested in a heartbeat but we bend over backwards for the so-called homeless right and I'm tired frankly I'm tired of doing it. All kinds of compassion I've raised millions of dollars for Father Joseph religion or I can stand at the forefront of people who are trying to do something about this problem but I will not you know bend the rules so that somehow the the homeless have a right to deaf Akkad on the trolley No you got to draw lines here but off to jail off to work camp whatever it is yeah you can't do that you're not going to do that because you're exposing people on the trolley and believe me we need all the people we can get on that trolley given the $275.00 budget that they never turned out of the farebox Ok so you know we're subsidizing up thing all over the place anyway and yet can you imagine every day you get on this trolley and that's the smell sights and. Sounds that greet you I just I think it's intolerable I'm with you send the cops on those things arrest people make an example out of somebody make this a high profile thing that's just not going to be tolerated or else hey guess what you're going to get a lot more I would just say the m.t.s. Workers ought to just go on strike I mean look take direct action strike and refuse to refuse to want to cause they're getting exposed to this illness and you know job on skin those guys are your bond and those guys are all saying well just make sure you got your vaccine so you don't have to pay no no that's yeah sorry if somebody was doing it in your office Mr union goon squad head you would you would take corrective action. You know it's all that's right and you know I think I think the homes ought to be given out free passes to C.E.O.'s of the n.c.a.a. College of Law to his office so that they can go there use a bathroom be you know would soon be. Yes it's a bit so. You know Absolutely right now the public transit employees I think have Association have actually taken the 1st step toward a strike by doing the very public complaint they did I think that what they're doing is setting up a situation in which if something isn't done they're going to take the next steps and I think they're pretty determined to do it I would certainly be in their circle in their in their shoes I'm with you on that one Ok Finally let's end on a kind of a happy note here edge what heck what the heck was the president talking about what he said you were watching the calm before the storm and when pressed on it he looked at the reporters and said he'll find out. Now I don't know what that means either I mean and I could tell you that if I was president know that he knows what it means but assuming he does know what it means does it relate to a very serious issue of you know the build up toward war in North Korea we got these Russians saying hey we were in Pyongyang and those guys are determined to go to war you better be careful you know careful we have squashing like a bug but you know the point is what is what is trumpery for it I mean you know we can't help himself he's determined to try to get out in front where he is the leader in chief that's why he's so mad about these other leaks so that he and his tweet I'm going to trickle I'm going to be watching the 3 o'clock in the morning tweets because maybe he's going to come up with an explanation. Of what what he means by you'll find out we wonder we're going to find out. Because the serious part of this if he's talking about North Korea is the Russians have also made it at least you know asserted now whether it's clear. Whether it's real weather I don't know but sort of a lot of medical stuff that they have submitted to the world to see that this next missile launch by North Korea will involve a missile that could indeed reach the West Coast of the United States now every president for the last what 15 you're just not going to be able to do that you're can't threaten the United States of America and for the North Koreans I say Well yeah because you're threatening us you've got 34000 soldiers in South Korea and that's a couple of miles from where we are so we're feeling threatened and it isn't us that's being in the aggressor It's you were being defensive by it lobbing a missile into l.a. . You know. There's no good outcomes here but as long as we're in this kind of a box where this little the hermit kingdom feels like it can take on the Dragon or the Eagle it's going to be interesting to see how that plays out or what he's talking about but he was standing in front of a lot of brass when he said it these generals and so forth we have actor up there and and obviously he's been having some pretty real meetings about what can and should and must be done in light of this upcoming missile test because this missile test is crossing all the red lines unless he's going to be an impotent president as broke Obama proved himself to be in Syria with his red line. He better have something up his sleeve Trump better have something up his sleeve now because the North Koreans are gleefully going to have going to cross that red line and it's going to be very interesting I guess we'll have to we'll monitor the Twitter feed early tomorrow morning usually likes to launch those those salvos bright and early on Saturday mornings when everybody is kind of doing other things and we'll see if he you know if he elaborates on his intent can I can I give you a very small homework assignment for Monday. Oh yes of course Ok I want you to break this down for us because it is getting very dramatic in Catalonia Ruch this this breakaway effort of and I want to I want to get I want to get your thoughts on that especially I know you travel extensively through Spain and kind of get a sense of what's really driving this is this more Breck's it or is this more crazy whacked out Blessed is lunacy and if you can break that down for us on Monday it would be cool.

Richard is right you know new M.T.'s truly truly. Ok me let Richard know we did go to him but I think he's busy can in the east county what's going on buddy and they fake my call Thank you so I called a couple months ago and didn't talk to you but that left this with your screener. Here in Tampa Oh Campbell there's. An army fort army camp. Called Camp lock it. And give your history on a war to a prisoner of war camp and part of that it was. Calvary. And the eighty's and ninety's and 2000 was a juvenile detention facility and the ninety's they they did a complete upgrade of all the barracks they have. No medical. Manned currently but now all that and it probably would have I don't know how many to 300 people right and you know if you google camp block at you'll see old buildings but if you do have a map you'll see almost brand new completely rehab buildings but I don't know why the county hasn't proposed that but it's empty now it's no longer detention center right but that air conditioning brand new roof you know Ok so so here's the problem right. And I I agree with you I think it's a great way to to fix this the problem is you have to wonder are you going to be able to commit people there against their will if you do that you're gonna have to you have to get a judge to sign off on an order and you know the a.c.l.u. Is going to sue because in the A.C.L.U.'s mind you have a right to not only be homeless but to desiccate and use the bathroom out in public in front of everybody and you have a right to be a public nuisance as far as the a.c.l.u. Is concerned. I agree so you're assuming that people would voluntarily go there well there's not going to be a lot of actions no where to get heroin or speed there's no way to get mass there's no way to get we need there's no way to get both because all that's going to be controlled right so this could be a really boring place. Brand of thinking oh me I'm here. And I work all right north island on the bridge traffic is rough I take the shortcut or down a parallel Avenue Yeah there's a whole families I understand that I go around me so you can kind of you know. The drug people are going to direct people but right the process. Families and going to back on their feet and I have no problem with that I have no problem with that I've no problem working with father just villages to get families back on their feet do that kind of stuff but but those families are probably Ok let's be honest those families are probably not the people doing what they're doing on the buses in the trolleys these are people who are antisocial and reprobates Ok to to do that in a public place like that that's a message you're sending a message that you're antisocial I'm not talking about somebody has to go under a tree or a bush somewhere because they're not they're going to die if they don't go to the bathroom. So I would I'm fine I'm good with putting families over there I'm good with doing it is transitional housing but I think it would have to be clean meaning no drugs no booze and I are not going to talk intolerant couldn't they I don't I got no problem with that these these 10 that are talking about building all that you know money of course and here you have and there's another facility that's available to folks in the county and they're not talking about it but that's in. Descanso and it's completely empty and Abigail but my point is that we're talking must spend all this money we have you know infrastructure to support those people that you're saying are deserving to be supported you know those people that are on drugs are going to be on drugs right but carve out the good people people don't get back on their feet you know say Father Joe Ok or the rest of the churches Yeah about you know you know you know I don't I don't see any of the other churches stepping up you know trying to support families that are and if they do right now well I think there are groups that are can I think we just don't hear about a lot of them I think I know there are a number of charities working with people but the problem is in terms of dealing with this happen a outbreak Ok and the people going to the bathroom in the streets and doing what's going on I'm talking about the stuff that's making people. Sick. That has we have got to get a handle on that and I'm just saying the mayor and the City Council are am I a they are not taking this is they they can issue proclamations and declarations all they want but they're not taking action and it's going to have an impact people in the rest of the country know what's going on they're going to avoid the city they're going to avoid coming downtown they would've I know people out but there's people in this audience I know people in my personal life who are moving out of downtown to other parts of the county because they can't take it anymore they don't feel that it's even safe to walk your dog your dogs are getting sick walking the streets and I have 2 folks that I'm thinking of that have told me that specifically . 80760 k.

Now I see people put their dogs in grocery carts and I'm afraid of us getting sick from that from you know we put our food in there we put our babies in there and they've got their dogs and it's grocery carts and everyone you and I don't get me started because I am 100 percent anti pets in stores unless they're for legitimate service dog reasons Ok but the vast majority of people bringing dogs into stores it is just because you just want to take Fifi or fufu into the store with you so I am not I am not at all on board with putting a dog in a shopping cart I don't want to dog in a grocery store I don't want the dog in the meat section in the cereal section in the Starbucks section and he did the dogs need to stay and either at home or in the car or outside with the other owner I'm glad to hear you say that you've got the power of the microphone so I'm really glad to hear you say that I did my dad used to say that people dogs generally don't care about their neighbors and I wouldn't go that far I don't know I wouldn't go that far but I will say this Ok And this is something I have experienced almost exclusively here in the San Diego Metro Ok and I appreciate the call so here's a quick story about 2 months ago I had to go to one of those big box. Home improvement places I'm not going to say who it was but you can guess it's got a 5050 shot so it's about 830 on a Saturday morning and I know exactly what I'm going in there to get I'm going there to get some nails so I'm walking towards where I know the nails are so I can get them and go to check and get get my project underway and as I'm walking here comes Mr and Mrs awesome with their dog which was a pretty sizable size dog. Think it's a say retriever size Ok I don't remember exact what the breed was but it was like a retriever dog they've got the dog on the super long retractable leash so that dog is probably 1516 feet in front of them so here they are walking through the home improvement store one of them's wearing house slippers the other one is wearing running sneakers and they're sipping Starbucks as they're walking through the big box store the dog is one of these it's not under control he's pulling forward. A year in the clackety clack clack is the floor is slick and this is a dog that's probably freaked out because it's in a big box store and the dog is like a literally 15 feet in front of him probably an aisle and a half away in front of them and here comes a guy with one of those carts with dry wall on it he's buying slabs of dry wall that he's taken out to go to a project and he comes down he narrowly misses the dog and the couple who don't have any control over the dog and as he passes Here's somebody else coming the opposite direction now now visible and the 2 dogs are having like a dog off. The barking in their day and going What the heck is this. This is a home improvement store and you got to break really you've got to bring Cletus in Fifi into the home improvement store and 8 o'clock on a Saturday morning while you while you walk around to look at the light fixtures and slurp your Starbucks there's people trying to get real projects done who can leave them at home where you can what if you could stay in the car what do you can stay in the car with the air conditioner running and like regular normal people who don't bring their dogs in a home improvement stores and don't bring their dogs into supermarkets just because they can and don't bring their dogs into the mall just because they can I'm buying some pants of course I'm bringing my dog why again I'm not talking about service dogs you know what I'm talking about I got nothing but respect for service dogs I'm talking about weirdos weirdos with the dogs that take the dogs everywhere no good you can't you cannot do this because I mean if you question if somebody brings their kid in that store and that dog bites that kid who's sponsible who gets to win in that situation does the parent who's got their kid there holding the hand the dog mauls the kid is the big box store liable is the owner of the dog liable who does that parents to because the kid got mauled walking in a store. There's a reason why you have dog parks there's a reason why you have places to play with you have backyards you have open spaces I guarantee you dogs do not want to be in the home improvement store no interest it's allowed a cutting boards people are dropping stuff people are trying to move with heavy stuff and by the way if you think I'm anti dog I'm not I grew up a German Shepherds my entire life I am extraordinarily pro dog I am pro dog and I am pro cat I like all pets but I'm sure as hell never going to bring a cat into a hardware store. There's no reason is no point on a leash in a in a in a baby basket one might want to be doing it's your baby it's not it's not it's a cat it's a cat it's a dog it's not a baby it's not a human being Ok I can't leave a baby in the car I'm bringing the baby with me that's a human being with human being right where the dogs for the dogs got all the rights in the world to everything outside that store as far as I'm concerned and for God's sakes what are you going around town with bedroom slippers on your feet yeah were some real shoes people it's like going to the supermarket you see the people why pajamas shopping that was me this morning sorry oh my gosh get a grip man I love this one but it's like it's Friday Brett's being judged mental what's going on here.

Weather religious RINGBACK RINGBACK RINGBACK. The following is an encore presentation of the world over. Tonight 3 great storytellers America's most popular suspense novelist Dean Koontz sits down with me in an exclusive then historian Paul Kane Gore and finally children's author Jeff Kinney joins us the world over begins right now. From Washington d.c. Rain into Raia a warm welcome to all of you joining us in the United States and the world over all pristine colognes Paul Kangal or and Jeff Kinney are all straight ahead my 1st guest is a master storyteller his novels are broadly described as suspense thriller as it frequently incorporate elements of fantasy science fiction mystery horror and faith he sold 500000000 copies worldwide and keeps an almost monastic writing schedule to create his incredible stories I recently sat down with him in front of a live audience which is very rare for him at the Free Theater in Orange County to talk about his writing process and what influences his work the faith that sustains him and his latest book The Silent corner here's my exclusive interview with Combs you started writing books according to most of the bios and when we spoke and before you said it was 8 years old when you started writing but actually the seed was planted a little earlier you told maybe other night told people about that I had a my mother was had a number of illnesses and when I was about. Well years old she was in hospital and rehab for 6 months and because my father was. The violent alcoholic I couldn't be left with him and so I was left with a friend of hers that we can see and Lisa's house was the opposite of ours it wasn't chaotic my mother kept a clean house and everything but the cousin my father there was chaos all the time but the reason and Macassar is on the arms and on the back of the chairs and there was a grandfather clock in the hall taken away and everything was perfect and every night she put me to bed with a cherry ice cream soda and I'd still like that I and she would read me a story while I had a ice cream soda and years later actually probably 30 or so years I suddenly realized one day that must've been where I started to not understand the beauty of books and literature because there were not books in my hands any and as a consequence How did I start to want to write books when I was 8 but from day early yes I can remember when it was picture books and I graduated to books for children. I wanted to read and by the time I was 8 I was writing them and I thought later that 6 months was 6 months apiece in a quiet house where is in our house it was never quiet or peaceful and I think I associated peace and quiet and love with books and that I think that woman really nudged me so the almost became a refuge for you it was. It's funny that you know we don't remember much when my are 4 years old. But my most vivid memories of 4 year old were in that house tell me about your father you mentioned a moment ago Ray Coons. We both arrays I forgot I didn't realize you were deanery Coombes. Tell me about your father he once said and I'll quote this there's no future for this family anyway it was something that he said repeatedly that portend it would be always in the depths of his that when everything had gone wrong for me which was almost continuous away he had 44 jobs and 34 years. And there were periods where he was unemployed and a lot of times he would lose the job because he would punch out the boss it's a bad career move here is the way to live that you're on h.r. . They don't even have a chart and so what is that up to because I am I was dropping the boys nobody to mitigate. So and he would always turn to drink and then when he was in the depths of despair he would always say well there's no future for this family anyway and he would threaten to kill himself so I was a child I always it was certainly my feeling that if he ever decided to get himself he might take us with me and I know my mother felt that way about certain things. Like part of it was only part of it it was a womanizer a gamble or so when I did have any money it didn't get brought him so it was just you never knew that he had a house to live him from one week to the next so the reason I get into this is because it he did and his memory does run through so much of your work is they were a gift in a starkness that was present in the middle of your home life in your childhood I have sometimes said I'm not sure I would have had a career as a writer without my father I remember reasons one. I descend to that woman so taught me books I wouldn't be and. If he had been reliable. Then there was also the case that I sort of grew up saying whenever I was wondering what the right thing to do was I would always think what my father did and then move the other way I want to move through your life because again all of this colors and shapes I think your work and it is a work that's not easily defined or pigeonholed it isn't it isn't horror it isn't just suspense it isn't scientific musings it's all of that and romance and comedy mixed in in this story in the human condition which is what I think gives it such texture in life and probably why it's so attractive to such a broad audience and we have to say we haven't said this so for 500000000 copies sold. There aren't too many offers by the way. You can say that the hand of them want to. And they're old Stephen King and j.k. Rowling. And they were I don't even think Mary Higgins Clark is up in that I think that's something that's a lie it is a big club I mean it's a little club but a big deal Tell me about it English teacher you were telling me about not long ago . Because she had a decisive impact on what you would become if you're talking about strong women and help because I'm writing a series with a very strong woman character and I had a English teacher named when I got a break and she had been a whack in world what and she was absolute maximum one. And. In those days she was the 1st woman in our little town anybody ever seen who were rubber soled shoes been any army and it was always a comic she doesn't test like a lady that. I had her frank ocean 9th and 11th and 12th grade and she was. Model that's teacher but she was also a very harsh disciplinary and she had a way of presenting herself when somebody is doing something they didn't like that she could make the biggest jock in the high school to tremble with the game which I saw him many times something in 9th grade she had then a fight about me and I want to know what they because I was a kid nobody paid attention to except that I was something that the class clam and therefore the pension paid to me was negative. But she started realizing I had some writing ability so she started giving me special projects she had me write a class newspaper and let me do anything I wanted with these little program she had and when I got to my senior year I got into college at Shippensburg State College it's now university. Came into the hallway we had a very large high school even though it was a small town a couple of 1000 our high school had 1200 people in it because they came from all over I had already dug holes were packed between classes and she came out into this hole and crowded with kids at lockers and she yelled. And it was like one of those Western movies were good. Cars or terror. But she was a very sweet tender person and very religious state as a Presbyterian and she was very religious and she and she was at the end of this all and I'm at the other end terrified and she comes walking up to me and she stands right in front of me and she starts hitting me in the forehead with a finger which these days I get fired. But she is she says it I hear it you are except that it should because very and I said yes ma'am and she said and I hear you're going to major in history and I said yes ma'am and she's that you know why you're majoring in history and I said no. She said it's because you find history easy and Europe at. And she'll slacker anyone tell us what to do. And cheated I have my number. You're going to change your major and you're going to major in English because you are writing about what I was so impressed that anybody cared about me that much that I changed my major so she had this very profound effect Tell us about your writing process which your English teacher said you were a potential slacker this schedule is practically Monet aspect to tell people what this daily schedule looks like the process. When it's a little lighter and I can walk the dog 515 then I'll be up at 5 o'clock it's I don't like to do a lot walk the dog in the dark because of coyotes. And so I get up as it only as I can while there's a light at the dog if it's an early morning I can be at my desk working by 630 otherwise I'll be there by 7 and I work straight through the dinner at 5 o'clock I almost never eat lunch because food makes me like this if I'm trying to stay sharp a story. And I'll do that 6 or even 7 days a week so I tend to work a 7 day hourly and when you get toward the end of the book where everything you've been working on for months and months it's coming together and you feel this surge of energy around it and I've been a good and I want to and. My wife has great patience. Also answer 900 page book so I mean some of these are not the I mean this is a. People with a big ability you know the big spaces in between it's been pictures this is heavy copy what does that afford you as a writer because I know I know I can't write I can't sit and write fiction nonfiction I can write anywhere plane train and all we're here after all fiction i Phone. I cannot write in a small period I need several hours to enter into that place those characters that world is that what it is it's partly that you have to those characters come alive if they're good in fact if they don't come alive stop find some other book to write them for me I'm talking. I have to sort of start to fall in love with that lead character or that 1st couple the plates and then the other characters that have all have to be people that interest me but if I do they become so real to me that when I'm writing their dialogue I'll be laughing out loud as if I'm hearing it. And I get so emotional moments where I can be in tears and I think and some people work and I think sometimes they go by my office and I'm laughing I'm just waiting for that day had a little light weight and share it. But you get so emotional that the characters if they're coming alive if people write me about anything more than anything else it is the characters and that's what if you think about. It you might not remember all the plot twists of decadence but you remember Oliver Twist and remember David Copperfield and all it's that is the essence of good action I think do you do you as you realize you don't outline no ill outlines but you did it one time at one time early on and you dropped it with a surprising Rangers strangers 1st book I wrote out of that line it was 900 manuscript pages 12 lead characters. And I just kept it all in my head and it worked so so I'd never done it that was my 1st are covered by someone and so after that I stay to go back to. I found that an outline would often I would feel like now I have to follow it because of it and some idea of a company and all that's interest they know but then where would I go because it will conform to the outline and when I just. Had a little bit of more confidence so I threw the Outlands away do you talk to yourself. Not really talk to myself except the wee moments when a character does something or I'm about to see it that the character is going to do something and I'll go like this because I don't know and then I start talking out loud for a moment you know that he can't really trying to talk myself out of going down the path but what I've learned is if if if the what ever is with you when you're writing and and there is when you're giving yourself totally to create it thing there are moments that you feel in contact with a higher power I really feel it at times in your writing and that's those moments where you think oh I can't go there and I've learned that that's where you absolutely because you don't know where this is coming from I write things in books that it would never I would never have can see that I would think of this and yet suddenly it comes and it's there right now so really your process is an act of faith. I really think that one of the great things about it is writing is a mysterious process story telling us in this area and what we're doing is being created in the image of the greatest of all creators so I think somehow you form a link to doing this and I certainly have moments when doing it I think I have no idea where that came from I have said sometimes I feel like I'm almost not creating it times I'm just a conduit and it's coming through media and you're really relying on a lot of your subconscious and allowing it to bubble up and take you where it will that's a scary process with a 900 page manuscript to. I've always thought what if I get paid 120 pages and don't know where it goes from. And if you ever read yourself into that go no idea why do. You personally keep writing at this pace I mean you could take this back to a book every other year. Tampa day working you could go walk the dog the other half of the day. I have a jokey response I usually say is it keeps me out of trouble with the cops. But now whatever use this age I don't have the energy to travel. So it's I do love what I do and when you get letters from people that say. It changed my life get book changed my life or I was on the verge of suicide I had I just got with and lies to wait we get these all the time but this one was particularly poignant and woman wrote me that father had abused earth from the age of 8 and she didn't get out of this house so I think she was 19 her mother was complicit in it of them around but she had no sense of self-worth. And she got out of the house just got out and left she had saved some money from babysitting and that's what she took she got him to I guess Family Court forward progress she drove to she got away from them and she. She decided she was going to kill herself. And she made an attempt and that up in the hospital she she got a number of medications and took them all. At once and and didn't quite make it and she was playing it cut her breasts and. Forget what the book what she picked up the book and I used to think. A book Urban writer doesn't change your life to this extent and then I started thinking well they changed mine there were a lot of these writers that showed me that there was another way to live a life. That not everybody lived in this chaotic environment and when you were a very young child you think everybody does right you have to have some other examples and so she read this book I forget which one it was and she said she says and so I read that I decided to read more and then she goes on to tell me how she decided not to kill ourselves and after about a year or so she met this guy who was a Marine I know he was going into the Navy and she kind of had nothing you know interesting man but she said he was like one of the men in your books he was very patient he was very caring about me he delayed going into the Navy and they ended up marrying and they've been married now for like 8 years and she wrote me just beautiful letter and you never stop thinking about that when you're working if you get the desired result I mean you think Ok there is some value and that this aside from it's a career. So that keeps you going and I literally I'm not a guy like sitting around by the pool having a. Drink some. Water in the pool the pool and that and I don't know it's a friend of mine used to say his wife I'm never going to retire because people retire go die die and there is a little bit of truth in that and and he in fact retired and pretty quickly got cancer. But it was. At some point I'll go a little slower than I am. Right now I'm starting a new series with a character and I want to really get this series mounted and going so it means working a little harder for a while but I can see I'm getting ahead for the 1st time in 20 years so once I'm a number of books ahead and I can read I saw them how many of you working on at any one time only one book at a time one at a time it but I've got 3 books at the pump. Now this 4th about to go in and they will publish the 1st that is in jail so I'm getting ahead of the game and that's the 1st time that's ever been true this new series with this character Jane I. Just it's was one it was like it was one of those moments so is this character I start writing about or it's within 15 pages I think Ok this is really something else and I don't know where this is going and I am now working on the 3rd book in that series and she's just getting more and more interesting and. My British publisher said to me she has a hard nosed she does anything she needs to do for bad guys and she will like hell except in self-defense or did and innocent but but she's up against some really evil people and it's a. Story and although each one stands up and. She said this amazing figure of honor and that's really what it is and it's these are books about pretty well and I can be misused and how so many people don't think it's important and that's the silent corner silence corner and the 2nd one is called the whispering men and and I don't have the title that there yet the silent corner by Dean Koontz is available at bookstores everywhere and online when we return we're old Reagan in Pope John Paul the 2nd had been credited with hastening the end of the Cold War But what was that their friendship and their connection to the story. And his story unfold Kang or joins us to discuss this and much more for his latest book The pope and the president. Hope you get more from the Global Catalog e.w.t.n.

We believe in another dimension a spiritual side demand we find a transcendent source for our claims to human freedom our suggestion that inalienable rights come from one greater than ourselves no one has done more to remind the world of the truth of human dignity as well as the truth that peace and justice begins with each of us. And the special man who came to Portugal a few years ago after a terrible attempt on his life. He came here to Fatima the sight of your great religious shrine to fulfill his special devotion to Mary to plead for forgiveness and compassion among men to pray for peace and the recognition of human dignity throughout the work of the leg of the world over live that is a very Reagan family assembly of Portugal in Lisbon 1985 Joining me to discuss the unique relationship between President Ronald Reagan and Pope John Paul the 2nd and his latest book a pope and a president John Paul Ronald Reagan any extraordinary Untold Story of the 20th century is all there historian and professor of political science at Grove City College poll. Paul Ronald Reagan many times described John Paul the 2nd as his best friend amazing stance the Reagan had a similar comment this relationship why where did they stand I know I 1st heard about it from a group of Poles who met with Reagan in the spring of night 189 he was no longer president they had a madam that is Century City office and they came them for campaign advice of all things because they were about to hold elections and all and and and. I said Listen to your conscience because that's where the Holy Spirit speaks to you and all of us that it was a and then a turning point to a picture on his wall of John Paul the 2nd and he said he's my best friend he said Yes you know I'm Protestant Of course he's Catholic but he's my best friend and I heard that and I mean I was blown away by it and then Nancy Reagan's that use some of the same language she used the phrase closest friend of all things and to be sure Raymond I think there is there is a certain gene ial overstatement and that they really weren't best friends in the way that you guys of Kali child are to talk about go insisting or going all thing but I think and this is key that in this battle of the 20th century to defeat this courage of atheistic Soviet communism this is this call of a lifetime for Ronald Reagan he saw no better friend close or friend know best friend more so than John Pozza in our intro to the segment we played Ronald Reagan from 1905 yes or the Portugal assembly mazing where he invokes found him and he talks about John Paul he talks about the Fatima children how does that amid this vision that happened over 6 months in 1917 intersect and weave into the lives of these 2 men John Paul the 2nd and Ronald Reagan I open the book with the shooting of the Holy Father in say Peter's Square in the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima May 30th 1901 and then I bounced back to May 13th 917 to start the narrative there but I I was shocked I had no idea the Reagan had any of this interest in Fatima it's one of the things that I learned over the time in this book at the working out of from was 20 years but I kept getting pulled in right said I do it should I not do it and then I would learn things like this I was told by among other people Frank Shakespeare the 2nd investor to the Vatican he told me about briefing Reagan on Fatima one on one just the 2 of them alone flying in a small plane from the g. 7 in northern Italy down to around this was June 1907 and then briefing him in the car and sat on my eyes what did Reagan say said Reagan was really. Gauged intensely interested I asked other people about it Tony Dolan the Reagan speechwriter a devout Catholic and he wrote the evil empire speech among others he said Oh yes and you know Reagan talked about that and then Portugal said he did it well when was that the author of got a model Reagan I don't know I was there when when and so I finally just typed in the Reagan Presidential public papers the words that image I never thought to do before I got it I typed in Santa and damn the pump May 1985 Reagan to the government of that I'm of the Portuguese Assembly the president of the country is there he mentioned Mary that I'm a John Paul the 2nd the shrine of the shepherd children he said that in the end the prayers of those Shepherd children has more power than all the armies and states no one of us done and how does that guide this relationship these 2 men Assange has a sense a nation attempts within 6 weeks everybody forgets that and they saw this real prophetic providential hand in their lives what brings them together and how to spot in a hold them there well Reagan wanted to me with the Holy Father as soon as he saw footage of him as trip to Poland in June 1990 wasn't president yet but once he came in in January 1901 he wanted to get together wanted to get together and yet everybody remembers that they were such but they forget that they were suddenly 6 weeks apart so Reagan March 30th 81 the Holy Father May 13th 1901 and then they finally got together at the Vatican June 7th 1902 and you had this Protestant president and this pope and they said to one another that they believe because they sort of died i days a little bled to death people have no idea the Holy Father got 6 pints of blood transfusion and he got last rites get into it and buys it was about there's an interim the homicide an end than an inch from the ne an abdominal artery and with Reagan less than an inch centimeters to the main the main heart arteries well got $8.00 to $9.00 pints so they said to one another that they believed. God had spared their life for a special purpose which which was to defeat Soviet communism and I asked Frank Shakespear and other people do you think they talked about Fatima at that meeting in June 1901 and Frank said I don't know for sure I don't have the document because the Vatican records on this are sealed until the year 2057 you have a little time right way to be 99 but it's Ok I later will be either a 5 if I can make but but he said I don't have proof that they did but I can't imagine that they didn't talk about them what is the lesson for leaders today because John poll now to the spiritual crusade he was also sharing information with Bill Casey it was a CIA they were leaking all kinds of information Bill Casey the subject of your biography the judge Judge Clark the 2 of them really were instrumental in forging and finding this relationship between Reagan and John Paul they were and he'll argue as well. There is a choice it was really Casey Clark and loggy and Bill Clark who you interviewed I was a wonderful interview wonderful show Clark loved that and he would drop over to the law his residence weekly sometimes more and though and no notes they had an absolute rule of no notes everything Ray he would come back and brief Reagan directly on what they said but I think the lesson for Raymond is that if you get a president a pope who would see as Frank Shakespeare as words kindred spirits entered souls really thought alike even religiously thought alike prayed together those 2 prayed together if you get soon 2 men of one mind and one purpose facing a great international thread with a good idea vision on how to respond you could literally change history and change the world now it is clear that Donald Trump is ripping a page from the Ronald Reagan playbook we are trying to engage not only the Pope but other religious leaders in this new initiative. To stamp out Islamic terror from the face of the earth how successful in your estimation has he been and will he be with the current pope I think it's I think it's fascinating it's about 35 years to the day the Reagan ended 35 years of the week the Reagan and John Paul the 2nd met at the Vatican for the 1st time and Francis has to really appreciate that this president for his 1st foreign trip abroad which always has important symbolic meeting would take the Vatican take the Vatican he got to the Vatican as president earlier the Reagan did as president because of the shooting is of course nearly all of what Reagan wanted to do but he but he went to Saudi Arabia the home of Makkah he went to Jerusalem the holy land and then he went to the Vatican on. So it's nice to didn't go in with the same kindred spirit you know agreement on things the same spiritual unity and with the having survived assassination attempts like Reagan and John Paul the 2nd did but I think it's interesting that they've really they really have strived to try to find commonalities in areas of agreement where they think they can work together and just to give you the audience a little sense of John Paul this is from the time of that meeting between the pope and the president in Miami this is John Paul the 2nd Watch this from 1987. Proclaimed Jesus Grier's bald. Policeman to me. That again it's gone it's my. Bad loan wound smarm the man. It said in a good neighborhood human hands and knees in baby table human beauties. Their reaction was yeah it's great I mean he and Ronald Reagan here to Reagan said every human being is brought here to borrow the language of John Paul the 2nd precious. And under teachable Reagan said Harry was quoting Father Theodore Hesburgh and Notre Dame Reagan said every person is a rests sacred sacred reality and because of that every human being from from conception from womb to the tomb is sacred and eternal and special and deserves to be protected while you bring that up in the book you reveal something that I don't know how I missed this is this in George Weikel spoke about that that John pulls and mother he was mother was encouraged to have an abortion and I don't know why don't you I don't know if Weigel reported but it's been reported by a couple Italian sources I think maybe Vatican inside the Vatican I think it might have reported it but yeah that she had she had very problematic pregnancies in fact she died when when he was only 8 years old and another interesting parallel ran Ronald Reagan's mother almost died when he was 8 years old and if she had died I can't imagine him becoming president she almost died from the influenza epidemic of 1919 after World War One and then yet another parallel there are 2 thought there's died within just weeks of each other and in the spring of 1941 so there are so many parallels between the 2 of these John Paul the 2nd one of the preceded Reagan's Catholic connections get a Catholic father a Catholic brother who was a daily communicant and I think people know this Jane Wyman Ronald Reagan's ex-wife and only converted to the Catholic Church in 1954 she died a 3rd order Dominican nun. I didn't know that in mind then was buried in the habit and she was so did the out there when she was on when she was on Falcon Crest in the 1980 s. She had drawn into her contract that a priest be on the set with her every day to to give her communion while so Ronald Reagan to say he was surrounded by Catholics he really was call my priest in but there is a great. The far let you go Bill Casey did then CIA chief did an investigation into the assassination of John Paul the. 2nd he discovered what he did and this is what really told me I had to do the book when I 1st learned this the institutional CIA was just terrible they were not investigating this the Italians are investigating the shooting of the Holy Father institutional CIA It was not case he got so fed up that he finally had a super secret really tight internal investigation I was told it was led by 2 young women one or late twenty's early thirty's one and probably early forty's and they concluded in a report that still has not been released to this day why but I know what it says I haven't seen the report but I know what it says they concluded April May 1905 that the Soviets ordered the hit on the pope and specifically it was the Soviet g.r.u. Military intelligence and they did it with the knowledge the go ahead the approval of Yuri Andropov at the k.g.b. And then in turn Casey went in briefed Reagan on it and I was even told what the what the briefing was about what they said it is still the it's still classified it's one of the only pages in the Reagan diary that hasn't been cleared for declassification and I'm almost certain Rayman that that when they met because it's the only time that the 2 of them met one on one and that April May timeframe it was May 16th 1905 we've got the exact date exact time and everything amazing that information is still sitting in Langley in Washington somewhere and it needs to be declassified Ok you've made does you've made your case thank you Paul can't I thank you so much for being here at Bolton of President John Paul Ronald Reagan in a extraordinary Untold Story of the 20th century by Paul Kang or is available online and it bookstores everywhere when we return chances are a kid in your life has rid his Diary of a Wimpy Kid series What is it about this series that has made it so successful author Jeff Kinney joins me to reveal some secrets and his latest what became the ring. W t And radio is drawing people of all races Masons and walks of life to the life of Christ my father has a physical disability because of that he can not always make it to the mess seems to e.w.t.n. Is a really daily mess he's right Eric following along with that's my point I can listen to any shadow government plans at. E.w.t.n. Truly the global capital radio network. Now once again rain in general I am. On the back to the world over my next guest has been at the top of the children's bestsellers list since 2007 when his Diary of a Wimpy Kid series premiered now he has an 11th Edition this one called Double Down is that down with a recently to discuss the success of his series The Power of great storytelling and how his Catholic faith plays a crucial role in the stories he tells Here's my exclusive interview with Jeff Kinney. You grew up in Fort Washington Maryland right very near here your father worked at the Pentagon I did indeed yes how did all 'd of that shape what would become your life's work directly with a kid I had a really ordinary childhood and I think that that was really good for me because ordinary things happened I didn't have anything extraordinary happened to me but I think that if I had a normal childhood and that was really good fodder for the type of writing I do realistic sex in writing about situations everyone can relate to you started cartooning when I know your college newspaper you created a character called a guide to India if that's how you are now with a good. Example is an awkward freshman is a strange looking character and he's a character that I wanted to take forward I wanted to become a syndicated newspaper cartoonist but I tried every About 3 years couldn't break in and had to find. A different way than your inspirations I think that the most inspiring you were Carl Barks he did the Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge comics from the 1940 cities in 68 and then Gary Larson I would say is a big influence and maybe even bad training some of his early you know Gary Larson I see some of that cracked sensibility around the edges in going to good cartoons I have to tell you comic strips cartoons really make me laugh your step is actually I mean I give my children belly laughing and read it to them and you know we're laughing along they do have that sort of you take ordinary and you sort of turn it on its ear how we are human that you did that in your life well when I wrote these books I wrote them for adults I was really trying to write an opus sort of an astrologer piece on childhood something along the lines of the comic equivalent of a Christmas story or the wonder years where it's an adult looking back on a child's life and so I always had the adult reader in mind and so I knew I could be arch and I could have a lot of irony in my books but that it got turned into a children's series I did it change the way you wrote the series that point it didn't change the way I wrote the series but it caused me to worry because they worry that kids wouldn't get the joke that they wouldn't be in on the joke and I found that kids are in on the joke. After they get to a certain age my then 7 year old read some of my books and didn't get them he couldn't figure out why they were supposed to be funny and then when he turned 8 you know you read the same stuff and I quizzed him I said you get that's why it's funny and he could explain it to me by got right here when he said rainy day you started writing the series I mean doing the diary but would be great in 1980 really right but then in May of 2004 you post them online that's right and they were installments Right right so why did you do that I started posting online because our website the website that we worked for at the time fun brain had a big audience and there was a need to get people to. Be reading in the summer time as I does a great opportunity for me to start putting together what I had written and start posting it just predated blogs so that was kind of a novel idea at the time which was posting something new every day and having an eager audience what was the genesis of Greg Heffley And is there any connection between Greg Heffley and Chet Kenny I think you can hear it right and if people wanted a day or the other right the meter is there and that's about as close as Greg gets to me is that the meter is there but the specifics aren't Gregg is really an exaggerated version of myself he's very flawed he's got my flaws but there are a lot of the employed by and in some cases my flaws are deeper than brains tell me about pop. Pop Shop because we did that come from where you said it with an axe I know I'm feeling it I'm giving the lead in a layer of. Pop Tropico is an idea I had was mostly male and this idea that you would go on a virtual world into a virtual world and go on different islands and have different experiences and. Something really unique in unusual in it's got me here John has hundreds and hundreds a 1000000 so it's an enormous I mean and of course there's a there's a tie in between Greg and the diary the when the kid I mean he's got his own world and several items all to pull islands Yes you've done your homework well I don't do my homework I look over the shoulder at data don't know your 100 millionth handle going on the site what do you offer me or why has that clicked do you think tropical really is a direct descendant of the Uncle Scrooge and Donald Duck books that I read as a kid where Karl Marx is Curtis introduced me to my world my whole basis of understanding of the world started with those comics a religion psychology psychiatry. In geology and history everything came from those comics to start with and I. I knew that we had this privilege the privilege and the responsibility to communicate a kid's world back to them in never reading about they were experiencing things like Greek mythology for the 1st time we had the chance to do that so that's why it's been very edifying or they know it's a lot of fun for kids tell me about you say you didn't start out to help kids or teach kids to read you sort out to entertain them yeah and I still have that as my charge I'm not trying to moralize to kids I don't want my books to be a moral light years away would lead to all this writing for kids they think well if I'm running for a kids I must impart some sort of a lesson that's a very grown up sort of lesson because that's where your charge and for me I thing my charge is to put him or as a priority and if you moralize to kids especially writing for this age group they can sniff it out and they will and then they'll be turned off to run away from you yeah I like the message that reading is fun that's that's a good enough message from him that's enough for you to you how do you start when you start a new book Where do you begin to feel isolate a moment in your life or in the lives of your children where does the where does the term I think you know I start with the jokes I know from experience I need 350 jokes to create one book so I spend a lot of time just walking and experiencing life in different ways to try to get my brain working I know the ideas are in there and I just have to figure out how to get them out and this year I had a really unique experience I I knew I needed to get away to write I didn't know where I was going to go so I literally went to the airport packed for a warmer climate was in the middle of the winter and I was packed for Florida I live in Massachusetts and then I changed my mind at the last 2nd I got the last take it and I just wanted as I showed up and I saw. It was short I don't want to develop flops and I did my best writing there really are and I think I have to try . My brain that way if if my it my my brain is come for all my brain is sort of like a kid with oppositional defiant disorder Yeah I don't wear works if it's got something that contradicts that is exactly so I have to sort of trick myself and how long were you when I saw him I was in Iceland for 5 days and it was my the best writing I did this year and you wrote a whole book didn't write the whole book but I defined it up I generated probably 70 out of the 350 ideas which is significant I now this is a book we should say it has been it is it pioneered I would say hybrid of comics as well as text and it creates a very non threatening when a child sees a page like this yeah they're not threatened by it and they in fact and then they're hooked and you see them they just start flipping my children burned through these in a day but alas which you know I'm sure you hear this everywhere you go and everywhere I travel as a children's author somebody's got a copy. On them or they're treating them like baseball Granted it's got to make you feel good it's a huge surprise to me but I think what what makes these books work that you had in the head is that when a kid opens a book they say it doesn't look like work maybe in Spawn and that those drawings that they give the kiddies lawlessness went to you and you had the text which is the work and then you get the reward and I think that that that's very effective it's a good way to motivate kids to rein you stumbled into it that wasn't the initial idea it definitely wasn't you know that's when the discovery after the fact now this book is with these books have been translated into Latin and hundreds of others languages but Latin Yeah presented to the pope yes as a Catholic that's going to make you feel pretty good it was pretty cool you know my Italian publisher was really excited when they came up with this idea of translating the book into Latin and as I got it sounds funny and I'm not sure who will read it and then one day they sent me a picture of the book. Being handed to the pope the 1st copy of that really was cool there is any of your faith in the books you weave your faith into is a color that the edges of the book with a care I think Greg's family I would say that there are a Catholic I try to keep it in Eric in a way so that it's accessible to everyone but I would say the family is a church going family and I'm really trying to reflect my own experience and that was my experience then it is them you have a bookstore now yes which I want to talk about in a moment but on the 3rd floor of that bookstore is a studio that's right how often do you work there every day I work there every day from about January until May and then I go into seclusion and tell all the way until December and then I all return back to the bookstore now but I want you to back up what do you do when you're there on the 3rd are you working on your books they are or you work in the bookstore I work on I I answer emails and work with my bookstore staff and my own smaller staff there but when I need to write in really write I need to be about myself or secluded Yes And where do you go for that I have a very strange situation I have a we have a normal size house sort of a modest way in next to it is a slightly smaller house I work there and it's a studio space you know I've had my 2 employees work there and then we have guests stay there so it's really well used but the really strange thing is that we had a house next to it at a neighbor's house last summer it was hit by a small plane oh my god our neighborhood in so that when the people who lived inside that house were all safe and they moved out into my studio house so I lost the studio has for about a year and I just got it back now now you know it's back but that's where you do the writing the budget you're writing in the sketching for the Yes that's correct 180000000 copies in print 50 languages did you ever think the series would do what it's done and reach the people the chill. And it has you know I never I never thought that I'd get a book published on the one hand on the other hand in a great starts off this book saying you know one day when I'm rich and famous I will have to answer the stupid questions. There is that that very American feeling will one day when I'm president you know what I found it would I go out into the world is that other publisher or media types interview or say now why would Greg say one day when I'm rich and famous and it's really I've really realized that that is a very American going much agitated and that's that surprise you had that every kid Well one day I'll be the leader you know that so well and I think they all do you have special insight to kids too I think you're very eager on the away Valeant because there are things here that frankly a lot of adults have lost touch with obviously very clued into and I see the reaction among children they recognize it what do you see when you look at these books when you see them on the shelf and you see kids reading them and what do they see that's a good question or what I see is a book that I might have liked to have encountered because it's going to give me perspective on my own life it might have helped me through some bad situations and it might have taught me to to laugh at myself and I think humor is tragedy plus time nannies and bears and things and these awful things haven't all of us but packaged it in a way that I think is accessible for kids so it takes you about half a year to write one of these. Do you ever get the feeling Here's the Conan Doyle question is there any moment where you say you know what I'm going to push Greg off of Reichenbach Falls and I'm not doing another this is it he's going to go off to college and I'm closing the door yeah I thought about that but I have come to a conclusion in fact this this book is called Double Down because that's my state of mind what I realize is. Greg is rooted more in comics than he is in literature and cartoon characters have in and determine lifespan Charles Schulz his creations lasted for 50 years right and sometimes cartoons die to. Calvin and Hobbes did the far side dead end when a comic goes away it leaves a hole in people's lives so I think you can't take that decision too lightly I want to ask you some questions I ask every author that comes in the story and it segment what is your favorite children's book My favorite children's book and they go tales of a 4th Grade Nothing by j.d. Bill and Peter Hatcher is this really relatable character and something awful happens with a turtle What's your least favorite my least favorite I would say my least favorite book is anything that has a heavy head message the story or the book that touched Kenny's life in a way that changed it. That would be or and I would say the book there is a book call it inside the box and it's about innovation it's a grown up book and a teaches the techniques for. 4 in a way and it's really shined a light on how dire of all bicker and why Diable because it worked for me and it's helped me make decisions going forward and why does it work for you Well one of the key tools is called subtraction it's the idea of taking a product taking a thing and then subtracting what seems to be the most important or nearly the most important element in seeing what you have left in for me that was taking the stream of becoming a newspaper cartoonist and subtracting then his paper and I became a car chase because I was able to subtract the newspaper from from the vision.

Real life if something's rooted in reality and it's going to be much better and something that comes from my imagination if you could pick a mentor dead or alive or writing mentor here would it be a person that I truly don't understand but recognize as a genius is Bob Dylan I know I really enjoy his work I think he is fully deserving of the Nobel Laureate idea yes I did I think you do but I surely don't understand what a what makes him work. Because he just follows his own it seems he just follows his own Yann where he goes and it's just such a startling vision everybody gets caught up in it yes not unlike when a guy like that well you might get a Nobel prize yet you've got time they never thought lyrics would what about cartoons right what advice would you give to parents who are desperately trying to get the kids to read and they want to live their bookseller now and I will as one of my books or I don't want to a similar book I think it's too big of a jump to go from picture books to chapter books with no illustrations I think there needs to be something in between that gets kids motivated and want a kid finishes a book it's a success they have a feeling of success it's very addictive and that's what the diary of a Wimpy Kid books really give and that they get that sense of confidence the speed my children 1st read your books and then found their way to chapter books and other things that were much more dense and complicated but you're right it was not the content but the experience that gave them that but that you know what they make it kind of that and that's what I find bathroom really well people want to laugh and children especially want to laugh their life is so heavy on them I really do think they need that they need to be reminded I can be funny I agree and I love that you have a family an intact family also that sort of goes on the journey with this point which is.

Supreme Court is reinstating parts of President Trump's travel ban N.P.R.'s Joel Rose reports the court has announced it will consider Trump's executive order during the fall term the Supreme Court has agreed to take 2 cases on the executive order which blocks Nuvi says for travelers from 6 majority Muslim countries for 90 days and suspends the u.s. Refugee program for $120.00 days the executive order was blocked by lower court judges in Hawaii and Maryland hours before it was set to take effect 2 federal appeals courts allow those nationwide injunctions to stand but the Supreme Court has narrowed those injunctions in potentially significant ways the court will allow the travel ban to take effect for quote foreign nationals who lack any bonafide relationship unquote to people or institutions in the u.s. Though the justices also say the travel ban will remain on hold for the plaintiffs who challenge the order in the 1st place it will also remain blocked for anyone who is similarly situated in other words who has family members in the u.s.

I'm Carol Hills this is the world in Mosul has a special place in the history of the u.s. War in Iraq it was the site of fierce battles to secure the city in the country's far north and dozens of American troops died there that's one reason the capture of the city by ISIS 3 years ago was such a shocking turnabout but now after more than 8 months of bitter fighting an Iraqi general says the fight to retake Mosul is almost over military officials say only a few 100 ISIS fighters remain and that they've been given a choice surrender or die Mosul is the last major city in Iraq with an ISIS presence Stephen Kaylin of Reuters News Agency is in northern Iraq on his way back to Mosul he says the sense of anticipation in Iraq is building there's a lot of excitement on Iraqi state television for example looking forward to celebrating this but it's good to be a bit cautious because there have been a lot of promise is an expectation over the past year when this is going to happen and it often takes a little bit longer than most people hope and expect Can you give us a sense of what it's like there now this whole battle new for 8 months has been very complex urban warfare street by street house by house. What's different about the Old City is that if you've been to an Arab city like Cairo or Damascus it's very similar in that old centuries old historic part of the city which is crowded marketplaces and houses built on top of each other not really clearly planned or organized and so that's the environment that that they're fighting in now and this is the most difficult demanding environment that you could really ask for an urban environment you can't drive a Humvee down the street or you have to get out of your car your vehicle and you know fight the enemy and fight so that's really complex there's also as of a few a few weeks ago it's hard to tell exactly the numbers but there are at least a 100000 civilians in a pretty small neighborhood so a lot of people are trapped are civilians have been a problem throughout this battle an obstacle for the Iraqi forces. So really this is just an intensified microcosm of the entire battle and it sounds like ISIS is not completely spent either I mean I understand there was a significant ISIS counterattack yesterday what happened that's right there are a couple of suicide bombers that seem to have. Infiltrated our cross through the security barrier the front line that the Iraqi forces had established into areas that were considered previously cleared a few days earlier and said they detonated their charges and it's a setback and I think today the Iraqi forces spent their time they imposed a curfew and they were going house to house that was telling us trying to they wouldn't even bite us really got get very close because they wanted to shut shut down lock down the whole area and go house to house to make sure that there are no more sleeper cells. You know hiding out in these areas because that's something that could really just lay there and that's that's one of those things that that we we started saying you know be cautious about a timeline Well something like that could really set us back a couple days even a few weeks I understand the ISIS fighters remaining there have been told to surrender or die what are they seem to be choosing. They're choosing to die kind of what we've been seeing the whole time and you know if they if they have a chance to flee some of them take but a lot of them seem like they they made their their peace with this a long time ago and they knew this is going to be where the end was for them until you know a few months ago there was a possible path out of Mosul but that's pretty much been shut out and unless you are going to try to blend in the civilians and risk getting caught in the screening process there's really not much option for you we also understand there's a lot of foreign fighters in this area and obviously you know not to be able to blend in with the local population so I think a lot of the the fighters are you know really fighting to the last breath and that's causing unfortunately a lot of struction a lot of dust when this battle for Mosul started last October many observers were worried the Iraqi forces who are mostly Shiite would actually alienate Mosul Sunni Muslim population how is the battle for the hearts and minds been going. I think it's going better than expected there definitely was that fear I think one of the one of the things that's laid out is that the regular military forces they're the ones that are going to really leading this fight and some of the groups that were provoking more anxiety some of these militias some of them backed by Iran those are really the ones that were provoking the exotic and for the large part they've been kept out of the cities participated in about oh may have contributed but it's been more in a support role and sort of outside of the made population centers there have been reports of abuses human rights watch as documented abuses by the government forces but I think it's been a lot better than most people were expecting Stephen Callan of Reuters he's in northern Iraq thanks and be careful out there all right thank you very much on May 30th a few days after Ramadan began ISIS took credit for 2 bomb blasts in Baghdad that killed $27.00 people one of them was at a popular ice cream parlor in the predominantly Shia commercial area of Qatada where a crowd of young people and families had broken their fasts Hasan had lives in Baghdad and spoke with a Soon after the attack we're checking in with him again today House on Remind us what happened to this ice cream shop that day so this was a couple of days into the holy month of Ramadan a few hours after the breaking of fast there was a bombing the targeted and ice cream parlor and restaurant in the couple at the district that. There were something like 12 children over 20 injured and in the news one of them was a 12 year old girl that had gone to visit her grandfather from Australia and she was one of the ones martyred were you at the ice cream parlor that day I was I was actually at the their restaurant adjacent to my friends and I had gone to break fast at the restaurant and we ended up leaving about 22 and a half hours before the bombing took place so it was a very close call. When did the Ice Cream Parlor reopen 5 days it was unbelievable most of the shop damage was the front side which was glass repairing and replacing was relatively simple but the resilience of not only the shop owners but the people in the need good in the community the resilience that they showed was unbelievable and when it did Rio and they gave ice cream for free that night as a way to thank their patrons the customers and their neighbors What's it like there now nearly a month later it's completely back to normal I mean traffic is heavy around that area as always and as far as the patrons to the ice cream shop it's back to business has there been any increased security in the neighborhood since the attack there has you do see I'm going crease and traffic police and some soldiers as well that patrol the area especially that road I'm curious whether that bombing or those 2 bombings changed the atmosphere in Baghdad for the rest of Ramadan were people more cautious absolutely not the remainder of them on people who are going out and breaking in restaurants and they continued to go to the ice cream parlor on Twitter or some high level officials were going to the ice cream parlor and snapping photos the Turkish ambassador to Baghdad was one of them former Iraqi ambassador to the United States was another you know it was showing that the level of resilience is there and that you know no matter how many times it regardless where they strike bad guys can't lie and so it was good to see as far as other neighborhoods and other restaurants always you have to reserve to get a table to break costs that these restaurants so it was very good to see have you been back to the ice cream parlor sense absolutely when I go. And you have 2 young children you probably bring to. The idea that finitely I mean it's one of the few things that you can do to mix things up to give them a treat so definitely going out for ice cream is just a normal thing that people do here with us somehow that a resident of Baghdad speaking to us nearly a month after 2 deadly car bombs went off in the city Thanks Us My pleasure nice talking to you Carol 7 days that's how much time Carter has left to respond to an ultimatum by some of its neighbors last week Saudi Arabia and its allies handed the tiny Persian Gulf nation a list of demands it needs to meet before they lift a trade and travel blockade on that list of demands shut down the state funded news service Al-Jazeera which some of cutter's neighbors have accused of giving a voice to terrorist organizations know how Miller is a professor of media at the University of Bedford share in the u.k. I asked her why these countries have it out for Al-Jazeera it is not about a cheesier actor say but it's about cutter foreign policy and cutter seems to have used its media outlets including edges year to have a louder voice in comparison to each finally size so now the accusation involving a Jazeera is that it gave air time to jump to no star which branched out of Al Qaida it gave air time to setting groups. Took the side of certain dissenting or opposition forces like the Brotherhood a Muslim Brotherhood. And actually that is you know hosting dissident voices from neighboring countries including behind that equates now we have a spokesman for Al-Jazeera. A little comment from him responding to the accusations that Syria is a voice for terrorist organizations here ias for the vast majority of people. Around the world as a represents that's. Everybody should have rights to knowledge everybody should have a right since from. Everybody should have a right to your What's going on in Syria what's going on not only in their countries but around the world. Now one thing I want to ask based on what he just said is that there seems to be a huge difference between Al Jazeera English and regular Al-Jazeera and is the concern or charge that Al-Jazeera is playing into demands of terrorists is that around the Arabic language channel Yes there is a huge difference between just you know Anglish versus edges that are Arabic and English is widely considered reliable source of news and the more neutral and objective compared to the Arabic channels which is far from it and let's not forget that the Arabic channels faced Masters Ignatius' between 292011. Because many presenters and producers where where I'm happy with the way cuts are insisted that the cheesiness coverage remain aligned with the government's official stance on key regional conflict. Now what if Qatar says no we're keeping their open. I think at the fence on the negotiations it could be that the Jazeera Arabic is shut down but the English side survives it could be that . Network survives both Arabic and English channels but the real question here is what would as your Arabic look like even if it survives it will have to tone down its coverage of all neighboring countries and so it will lose more of its credibility so in any case that look a them shutting down the just you know offices in many neighboring countries will strip as you know it's competitive edge because it wouldn't be able to cover the region where it is based. Not just want to ask you a long view question you study media in the Arab world media and journalism do you think whatever happens to Al-Jazeera that it was a good thing that it happened you know back in 1960 I mean that is the long term impact of Al-Jazeera a positive one for journalism in the Arab world yes I mean yes when it was sick up in 96 I'm sure they didn't imagine the success that they will keep later but it made a big difference and at that time people who were talking about the so-called see and in fact because many Arab audience would simply go into c.n.n. And of course the b.b.c. To find out about what's happening. Especially after the 991 Gulf War when news about the war was was absent from the channel so I just you know came in the right timing to basically fill the gap and say it's not only about the c.n.n. And b.b.c. Arabic we're here as well so they have a huge difference on the on the Arab media scene no Mellor is a professor of media at the University of Bedford sheer in the u.k.

I'm Carol Hills this is the world once upon a time Venezuela's program for treating Aids was an international model but today the country is in a deep economic crisis inflation is rampant there are chronic shortages of basic supplies and medicine and together those have nearly destroyed the program Stephanie now Stephanie Nolan covers Venezuela for The Globe and Mail and Toronto she says when it began Venezuela's aids program had a head start on much of the rest of the world well the 1st thing is that it was early Venezuelan people living with the Cheney took their government to the Supreme Court way back in 1908 and won the right to in taking treatment to antiretroviral treatment when it was new and so on as well it did it much sooner than a lot of other countries and men under socialism government and there was also a really big commitment to expanding public health which in the early years of about government was quite successful and that included not only making the drugs widely available. For free but also making sure that high risk groups such as men who had sex with men and sex workers had constant reliable access to free condoms and rolling out a Chinese testing nationwide and so that was a program that was a model for developing countries all over the world in nearly 2000 now you covered the height of the Aids epidemic in African countries more than a decade ago what parallels are you now seeing in Venezuela. I have to tell you when I walk into the 1st hospital that I visited in minutes well on my most recent trip it felt like time travel it felt like going back to Zimbabwe or missiles who 15 years ago hadn't seen anything like that since then as well as hospitals are there frankly the worst public hospitals and seen in the 85 countries I reported from there were some hospitals in Mogadishu in Somalia at the height of the Civil War and you don't really see untreated aids very many places in the world anymore but it's quite recognizable if you know what it is and I recognized it immediately Stephanie in what ways has the aids program in Venezuela been gutted to be honest there's there's actually nothing left of it there is no h. I.v. Treatment there are no condoms available publicly condoms are selling for about $7000.00 ball of us for a pack of 3 and that's out of the range of virtually everyone to purchase There's no testing for pregnant women anymore which means that pregnant women are infecting their babies at birth something that didn't used to happen in Venezuela there is no infant formula so that women with each i.v. You can't breastfeed their babies have a way to feed their babies there's just nothing left except the doctors except these incredibly committed doctors who for years have fought to protect this program as everything fell apart around them so what happens now when a patient goes to a hospital in Venezuela with HIV or any other illness nothing nothing happens and I actually had a doctor say to me I just don't know why people come although I. I asked patients and they said they're coming for the compassion they are not going to get treated one of the patients I interviewed in the main hospital in Caracas died a couple of days after I met him for lack of a basic sailing solution to hydrate him I mean not only are there no antiretrovirals but there are no basic medications and you get compassion you get compassion and consolation from these doctors who have nothing else to offer you you have no way to protect yourself from infection anymore you have no way to confirm whether or not you are infected and if you do develop aids you have no access to drugs what are international aids organizations doing to help nothing. The Global Fund to fight each of you keeping an malaria the main multilateral agency that would help here has said it can't because its mandate is to help low income countries in Venezuela which of course has the world's largest oil reserves is not considered a low income country activists from Venezuela and outside have been pushing the global fund to rethink that decision and the regional sort of arm of the World Health Organization has been allowing Venezuela to buy drugs through its Strategic Health Fund but in order to buy those drugs the Venezuelan government has to use hard currency and of course it has a crucial hard currency crisis and so that money is being allotted to each i.v. Drugs only sort of sporadically are antiretrovirals available through Venezuela's black market Yeah but they are wildly expensive they're being smuggled in like anything else on the black market and of course of basic antiretrovirals will run you about $300.00 u.s. Dollars a month and on the black market I mean I don't even know what that is today but it's probably somewhere in the order of $2800000.00 in a month and to give you an idea minimum wage is $70000.00 for a month so that is out of the price range of virtually everybody I should say that what I'm telling you about HIV is also true of everything else if you go to the hospital today with kidney failure or cancer. Or anything else they're also not going to be able to treat you I think what was particularly stunning for me about the state of the h.p.v. Program is just that this is a place where Venezuela was such a leader and where for so long they managed to keep that program alive and now even that is decimated you mentioned you know you talk to a few patients in there what's the mood when you go into a hospital room and somebody struggling from Aids What's it like it took me back to being in South Africa as a way 15 years ago because people do know that treatment for HIV exists they know they don't have to be dying from what they're dying of and they also know it's entirely out of their reach it's not going to come and it's not going to help them and their death is inevitable at that point and there is just. The pain of that realization and then just also the fact that Aids is a profoundly unpleasant way to die people are just an extreme discomfort and distress and it's a very very hard to see Stephanie you know and as the Latin America correspondent for The Globe and Mail Thanks Stephanie thanks. For all its troubles Venezuela has not yet completely disintegrated one country that famously did fall apart about a quarter century ago though was Yugoslavia that break up spawn of brutal wars and conflicts that went on for years most were eventually resolved but one lingers what to call one of the fragments this small landlocked country calls itself the Republic of Macedonia but here's the thing its neighbor Greece doesn't like the name because there's also a Greek province called Macedonia So Greece has insisted the Republic of Macedonia call itself something else the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia awkward but after 26 years the country's new Foreign Minister Nicola Dimitrov wants to change Greek minds my 1st buy lots of these opposed to Greece and I have pleaded with our Greeks friends and the Greek citizens not on your to pollute these shows and I say I have asked them to rethink what kind of a neighbor they would like to harass Greece has blocked Macedonia's efforts to join NATO and the European Union because of the name but Dimitrov has been telling his Greek counterparts that such moves only make things worse when you block your neighbor for too long Deepavali could be near him in the neighborhood is not necessarily more constructive my brother more defenses and I have asked them to do think that blocking our old to nature could actually be conducive to a more friendly a political climate Dimitrov says people and businesses in both countries seem a lot less hung up about the name we have a tremendous Exchange for us citizens it serves up to what is a over the border business it's a really cold breaking Greece's a very important trading partner so this is a good basis to have a very friendly and open political relationship as well and I'm sure that sometime in the future be going to be able to be very very close allies so we'll soon be the country formerly known as the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia we promise to keep you posted.

Shirt Latimer also with legal aid was there too she says the judge told the young woman's lawyer that ice was there for her and that moment she asked the judge to set bail to the client would be held in custody and give us time to to find out what was happening and then talk to the client about what her options were the woman was handcuffed and met her lawyer in another room as word spread that ice was in the building lawyers and their clients huddled in the hallway looking nervous then around noon the agent left I signal ij gets officers arrested 3 people outside the courthouse that day mobile ask who with Legal Aid has a theory I believe they came to court with a list a long list of people that they could take into custody and I guess when they filled the van or whatever vehicle they came to court with today they left ice wouldn't comment on who it was looking for that day I wasn't allowed to record in court so I turned on my mike as the lawyer and her client the young woman from China left but if you have any. Attorney Katherine walked the woman to her office the client looked terrified she did not want to be interviewed after they talked the client left in a taxi carbon r.-o. Was emotional this is going to happen. And that's terrifying. Because these are. Now there make it to. New York State's chief judge also says she's greatly concerned and that courts should be treated like schools hospitals and other areas traditionally off limits to ice immigration agents have been spotted in courts before but not human trafficking court. Says courthouses or public buildings and that it needs to find people in court when police and jails don't turn them over a common policy and so-called sanctuary cities like New York but Judy Harris Kluger doesn't buy that argument she's a former judge of the human trafficking court in New York She now leads the nonprofit Sanctuary for Families which advocates for victims of sex trafficking and domestic violence she worries clients will fear going to court if immigration agents are present. A safe place for people to go whether they are defendants or or victims and certainly our clients are victims they are putting themselves in danger by not. Getting the protection that they're entitled to if these people don't feel safe going to court and don't show up immigrant advocates say they could face arrest and those who are considered victims will be criminalized even more for the world Beth Fertig New York City. Muslims in the u.s. Celebrated the end of the Muslim Ramadan holiday over the weekend and for the past 20 years there's been a dinner at the White House to mark the occasion but Donald Trump has abandoned that tradition. As an American Muslim essayist and humorist who's been highly critical of Trump's rhetoric on Muslims what you what is this just your say to you . It's. Endearing loyalty and love towards Muslims and Islam in America I mean it's been a love fest for the past year and a Half Men all seriousness what it seems is yet another gesture towards a part of his base which is seeking white nationalism white supremacy at the cost of dignity civil liberties of millions of their fellow Americans who happen to be a different color different ethnicity if they have ovaries or if they're Muslim and it does nothing to advance religious liberties and freedoms which are the bedrock of this country and very Jeffersonian and the last thing I'll say is he in I got a lot of heat for this on Twitter from some of his base I said this was a very un-American and Jeffersonian gesture by Donald Trump and his basis said no of course not Jefferson hated Islam and hated religions they never did anything like this before except Jefferson did in 1805 when he hosted the Tunisian ambassador and very specifically to accommodate the Muslim Tunisian ambassador on the letter he told everyone that we will be opening our feast at sunset which is during Ramadan which was believe it or not guys and if gardener all the way back in 85 How important is this White House tradition to Muslim Americans I mean it is the media over reacting. The media is not overreacting it's the messenger it's the administration it's the Trump and ministration that goes out of its way to break a tradition which a celebrates religious freedoms be shows us as a country that hey we welcome all faith traditions and we are acknowledging and respecting one of the major if not the major religious holiday of 1600000000 people around the world and the fact that don't trump and his administration and Rex Tillerson go out of their way not to celebrate at breaking tradition of both Republican administrations because George w. Bush did it and also Clinton and Obama signals to the rest of the world and especially to 3 to 4000000 American Muslim. You are not welcome and your religious traditions are not American enough what if he'd gone ahead and held the event wouldn't that have been awkward and looked just as disingenuous it would have and there would have been I think a lot of walkouts I don't think a lot of people would have attended but this is not about the if they are itself it's about the conversation he is having about Islam and Muslims in America you mentioned your Twitter account and I was checking it out and you take an interesting line well it's responding with humor which is good for humorist for example one woman tweets this is America glad we're not wasting the taxpayers' money you know about not having that if tar and you write back her few glad really wasting it to pay for Trump's golf trips and for security at Trump Towers in New York City so how did you not respond how did you just wonder how did you decide to take this approach on Twitter so basically what happened is I had no idea that this tweet would go viral you know I'm yesterday I'm celebrating Eve with my family and we're doing really Muslim exotic things like eating crab cake buffet after prayer and then at night once I had a little bit of time I see that this tweet goes viral and there's like just hundreds of these types of toxic nasty responses and so I prefer the Bugs Bunny approach not the deaf ear duck approach you could sit there get angry lose your mind tear your hair out but the animal always drops on Daffy ducks head or you could be like Bugs Bunny have some fun with that so I sat down for about 20 minutes and responded about 20 of them and for Muslims the one thing we got the most is go back to your country and someone said Go back and slither slither back to where you came from and I said my mother's room from Los Altos hospital in the area California Ok I'll try to do that and there was no response and so I think having some dark humor about this stuff is cathartic because you don't have some dark humor as a person of color even as an American living in Trump's administration. You'll be depressed and angry and probably need Xanax every day so I go for the I go for the humor approach is fun much of the Muslim American playwright essayist and humorist thanks for speaking with us thank you so much. 2 years ago a woman named Rene Rabinowitz was boarding a flight from the u.s. To tell of Eve when she was asked to change her seat the reason the man sitting next to her was an ultra orthodox Jew and he said he felt uncomfortable sitting next to a woman Rabinowitz agreed to move but felt she'd been wrong so later she decided to sue Israel's national airline last week a court ruled in her favor and her case has gotten a lot of attention in Israel Isabel Kershner has been right following the story for The New York Times in Jerusalem Brant a is in her eighty's very elegant sharp witted retired lawyer she now lives in an assisted living facility and she was just going about a business being a retired elderly woman when she got some that flight and what actually happened to her on the El Al flight Well she was traveling from to tell a bit she being visiting family and she sat down in her. In business class and then the gentleman a ride to was assigned seat next to the window seat and clearly he was having a problem with that she then was asked by the right attendant would unite Betis close it's a 1st class Renee is as I said at the time she was 81 she has problems with her knees walks with a cane didn't really feel like moving but kind of felt pressured into it and she understood immediately why she was being asked to move because the gentleman in question was at the docks Jewish man and obviously seemed uncomfortable about the prospects of sitting next to the she did eventually move and at what point after that incident did she decide to sue the airline Well it was quite a while after what happened was she said she felt minimized and kind of humiliated and degraded why should somebody ask me to move just because I'm a woman and it was actually a couple of months later. When she went to. Say Jewish Study Center in Jerusalem and woman giving the lecture and that's Hoffman happens to be the director of an action an advocacy group the Israel Religious Action Center and they have being campaigning for several years in Israel against gender segregation in public spaces in Israel they won cases in the Supremes courts against the bus companies in the transport ministries about bus lines going through ultra-Orthodox neighborhoods where women were kind of expected to sit in the back of the bus and they have now taken on the whole airlines seat switching is to run a happens to be sitting in a lecture and that happens to be talking about this issue of women being asked to move and run a put up a handset that happens to me. And when not and that about this he said well we've been looking for a case for a test case of somebody who was actually asked or felt pressured to move or having been asked by a flight attendant would you want to go to court and if so we would represent you and that is how so what was her case based on she sues the airline and what did she ledge Well she was claiming discrimination she was asked to move because of her gender that this is unacceptable discrimination based on Israeli and Israel's own laws absolutely Israel's laws and come sooner laws and public space codes to Knott's allow discrimination based on gender how come in the Rene Rivkin its case and others how come the Orthodox man doesn't change his seat Well I think in cases where there is an available seat next to another man that and they will the ducks male passenger objecting to the seat assigned would happily move and sit next to another man in this particular case and this happened. Lights there isn't another available seat next to a man how does this bring a Rabinowitz feel today about winning the case well she told me she was exhilarated it'll happen rather quickly it was a hearing that she was intending she was in the courts and she wasn't actually expecting that to be a verdict that day she was quite thrilled What is her When mean I mean what's the take away from all this well the takeaway is that you know it's not the way to enforcing the anti discrimination laws certainly in this very act will screen religion and gender in public space and you know I think it's a step on the way to formalize ing that it cannot be gender segregation and indeed public safety is and I think from that respect to its right to rule it's very Isabel Kershner is the Jerusalem correspondent for The New York Times thanks so much Isabel thank you very much before we take a break here's a preview of an interview you'll hear tomorrow it's with the author Kevin qualm he lives in New York but his novels poke fun at the rich and famous of Singapore and Hong Kong one of the things that I do in my book is I really delineate the different types of money because there has existed for centuries now and old money culture in Singapore that's very similar to you know the sort of wasp or the British aristocracy where it's very discreet no one is showing off their money and you know everyone's living in old houses driving old cars living extremely privileged rarefied lives but it's all very very under the radar and these old fortunes are clashing against so much of the new money that's been made over the past 20 years in Singapore in Southeast Asia and then of course there's been the advent of the very very new instant money coming from mainland China what I call the China rich so it's really about how all these different classes of money clash with one another novelist Kevin Kwan joins us right here tomorrow.

I'm Carol Hills when you're with the world India's prime minister the remote he is in Washington visiting President Donald Trump today at a press conference this afternoon Trump talked trade security and energy and Twitter Prime Minister Modi and I are world leaders in social media. Who are believers. Giving the citizens of our countries the opportunity to hear directly from their elected officials. And for us to hear directly from them I guess it's worked very well in both cases and the 2 men surely some of the same political philosophy Modi slogan make in India mirrors trumps America 1st approach she did and I got to is the Washington correspondent for The Times of India he says the similarities don't end there they're proof Rice was quite unexpected and exceptional they both this rhyme against the established norms and the stablish and it's a in one case and came out and expected returns they have strong personalities they're . Not exactly alpha male but they would be striking in there in the way they present themselves one similarity they seem to have as their funds for Twitter indeed. What should we call social media beings officials on both sides of pointed out that they are. Or should we say the world's leaders are the largest following Mr Trump I just checked yesterday and on the Trump has something like 32000000 followers on Twitter Mr Morty's not far beyond to quantify what they're about and they both tweet out of bed although the nature of their treats are a little and different Mr Trump's tweets are fairly political they're also controversial he likes to wrestle to television shows new shows sometimes the press know Mr Moti streets fairly staid by comparison when Modi 1st visited the us as prime minister in 2014 he had a massive rally in Madison Square Garden this visit seems to be a little bit quieter how come yeah I get a sense that the Indian side is keeping it low key and my sense is they could have gone in for a bigger show but obviously they didn't want to make a big sort of to do about it and then Mr Trump is fond of his own rallies and likes to boast big rallies those I don't think it. Like any of you know anybody else feeling under and besides this is also their 1st meeting and we were told repeatedly that or more by way of them getting to know each other so my sense is that Indians like to keep it low key what are the biggest issues right now between the u.s. And India if you're talking of issues where there is some potential for disagreement and conflict it would be the economy business trade particularly India's biggest strength is its manpower and really talk of trade in goods and services India may not have the goods but it has the services and services by re off exporting it's going to manpower and the us increasingly has barriers against it you're talking about the visas each one being pretty much there a couple of guest worker visas it's when you get something else called one which involves intercompany transfers so there are a bunch of guest worker bees and all of them have been subjected to tariffs in the sense that the processing fee for the pieces have been hiked to a great degree $4500.00 in some cases they're also slowing down the process and indeed sees that as a barrier the us sees the Indian economy as still being closed despite all the reforms and all the changes they like to complain that there are high tariffs so both sides have issues and that is probably the most significant difference between the 2 sides what do you think people India really want to come out of this visit I think they'd like to see a continuation off Toreador back a little bit us and your relations have progressed and improved dramatically over the last 20 years it's been gradual it's been significant We thought it had peaked with the Bush years but Obama carried it even further and so they'd like to see it continue to at least they would like to see it disrupt in this very close relationship which has gotten better over the last 20 yes good non-drug data is the Washington d.c. Correspondent for The Times of India. Thanks for speaking with us thank you for having me let's finish up this Monday with a look back at one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century October will mark the 100th birthday of jazz pianist and composer Philonous monk and now 35 years after his death there's a new album out that features some of his previously unreleased music it's a full transponder track to the 1960 French film Dangerous Liaisons Monk's biographer Robin Kelly says it was recorded at a key moment in Monk's life. The recordings themselves really represented monk sort of at the height of his powers on the one hand but also in the aftermath of a serious mental breakdown. Ido not defecting I was an odd time for monkeys on the one hand he was recognized as one of the really outstanding jazz pianists composers in at the same time the mental illness had become worse he only months before had been diagnosed with a called manic depression manic depressive so by the time he went to the studio to make this recording he had just began taking that acacia and so he was sort of in limbo in a sense famous but still struggling to make ends meet. But never the less when it's his studio recorded soundtrack and play some extraordinary music. Canonical was a song that he had written for his friend put on a card to const water whose home he was spending a lot of time in and where he actually saw the film. It's a a ballad kind of a temple beautiful song and it was used. Throughout the soundtrack and certain romantic moments 2. It is significant that the soundtrack is coming out in Monk's centennial year October 10th he turns $100.00 and Monk is making a comeback and I think that his music in this is a cliche but it's truth music is timeless something that's always and if it's of its time it's very very both dissonant but also deep in the level of musicality and melody you could hear Monk everywhere and I think there's a lot of interest in what Monk has to offer in terms. Not just to Coos to jazz but in terms of breaking with sensual rules of harmony you know he has always been off on guard he will continue to be oblong guard and he will continue to be the pianist that most young piano players will either study or find frustrating because music is very difficult and always find new ways to create their own sound .
