James Merrill and Derek Walcott they wrote on subjects as varied as lesbian passion and nuclear threats some poems and some critical reviews enraged our readers and drove them to drop their subscription Speaking of which it s 10 o clock and you re tuned to either k n y o l p Fort Bragg or k m e c l p Ukiah or you re listening in some other way but but there s the id never continues Grace Shulman did we apologize for a poem we published we saw it as part of our job to provoke our readers a mission we took especially seriously in serving the magazine s absolute devotion to a free press we followed a path blazed by Henry James who in 1965 wrote a damning review of Walt Whitman s drum taps calling the great poem errant prose mistaken yes but it was James view at the time and it was never retracted apparently the magazine has abandoned this story tradition last month the magazine published a poem by Anders Carlson we the poet is white his poem how to draws on black vernacular following a vicious backlash against the poem on social media the poetry editor Stephanie Burton Carmen human is Smith apologized for publishing it in the 1st place quote We made a serious mistake by choosing to publish the poem how to we re sorry for the pain we have caused to the many communities affected by this poem they wrote in an apology longer than the actual poem The poet apologized to saying I am so sorry for the pain I caused. I was deeply disturbed by this episode which touches on a value that is precious to me and to a free society the freedom to write and to publish views that may be offensive to some readers in my years at The Nation I was inspired by the practical workings of a free press we lived by Thomas Jefferson s assertion that error of opinion may be tolerated where reason is left free to combat it and no one was a greater defender of press freedom and of writers right to be wrong than Victor in a font ski sorry Victor in the Waskesiu who succeeded Blair Clarke as editor in chief in 1978 when defense in the late 1980 s. Risked losing discovery slash the nation. An annual contest in which the poets who won the prize read their work at the 92nd Street y. In Manhattan and simultaneously had it published in the magazine The why is board which sponsored the contest that s the letter y. By the way suggested dropping the nation s participation after it published an article by Gore of it all that some people deemed anti semitic I remember Mr vittles peace I detested it and his views but I d learned by then the crucial importance of a free press to a democracy I asked for Mr De Vos his help in saving the contest and no he would never have rebuked the old friends of article and apologised Instead he wrote a letter to the board of the y. Explaining the nation s way he said in effect that when we invite a writer to contribute to the magazine Our aim is to help that person articulate his or her view as clearly as possible as I recall the copy editors went to town on factual and grammatical errors but left what Jefferson calls errors of opinion. Mr De Vos his defense of Mr vittles Peace Did Not at all reflect indifference to the poetry contest on the contrary he cared for it speedily it sent over the magazines that contained the winners poems and often came to the readings but his position on free speech was uncompromising how far we have come from those idealistic courageous days as Katha Pollitt a columnist for The Nation put it the magazine s apology for Mr Carlson We work was craven and looks like a letter from reeducation camp she also rightly suggested that the proper thing to do would have been to publish a page of responses that would have been in keeping with the expectations of a free press the broader issue here though is the backward and increasingly prevalent idea that the artist is somehow morally responsible for his character s behavior or voice writers have always presented characters with an wholesome views f. Scott Fitzgerald Charles Dickens and Shakespeare come immediately to mind one wonders if editors would have the courage to publish Robert Lowell s words for heart cream or as repentance sustain a out of Fort today it would not be proper for me to comment on the aesthetic merits of Mr Carlson we his piece but that s the job of the magazine s current poetry editors but going forward I would recommend they follow Henry James example just as he never apologized for his negative review of Whitman they had 0 reason to regret their decision and the writer of that article Grace Shulman was poetry editor at The Nation from 171 through 2006 she is the author of 7 books of poetry and the recipient of the frost medal for distinguished lifetime achievement in American Poetry her memoir strange paradise comes out this month and that article was about a poem called How to Theo fending poem and here is that. By again. You d think I d remember it but I you know I don t Anders Carlson we it s a weird kind of a name there s a hyphen there we have never seen a name like that but there it is how to by Anders Carlson we if you got HIV say aids if you a girl say you re pregnant nobody going to lower themselves to listen for the kick people passing fast splay your legs cock in the funny it s the littlest shames they re like likely to comprehend don t say homeless they know us what they don t know is what opens a wallet what stops them from counting what they drop if you re young say younger old say older if you re crippled don t flaunt it let them think they re good enough Christians to notice don t say you pray say you sin it s about who they believe they is you hardly even there and with that in mind here is something I read in daily coasts this is by old redneck could we just call it what it is old redneck right so how about all of us stop using weasel words and stop trying to put lipstick on this pig let s call it what it is Russia did not meddle meddle in our 2016 election they are not meddling in the 28000 mid-term nor will they meddle in the 2020 Alexion this is not meddling it s an attack on the fundamental structure of our nation by an enemy nation intent on destroying us this is a war the Trump campaign. And now the Trump crowd did not quote collude with Russia you know what the Trump campaign did and what Trump and his people continue to do is conspiracy they are conspiring with an enemy nation to destroy the fundamental strength of the USA aiding and abetting they are assisting an enemy nation in their war on us and no trump is not quote rallying his base what he is doing is obstruction of justice jury tampering and fomenting violence call it what it is and Michael Harry o h a r I o t wrote in The Root an article titled Louisiana cops strangled black man to death for asking to see arrest warrant there s a video that goes along with this which I am I didn t watch but Michael Harry o. Wrote once for a writing prompt I was asked to describe how it felt to be white he s black by the way. I imagine that it feels like freedom like a flying feels to a hawk even the literal sky is not the limit when one is granted the privilege of being born with wings a hawk is not an evil thing a hawk is just a bird it is a predator and sometimes at its whim a hawk will swoop down out of the sky and pluck an insignificant little thing from the Earth and eat it alive. I looked over $22017.00 out of nowhere a beast plunged from the sky landed on 44 year old Armando Frank and devoured him whole the advocate as of today and police body camera footage of the death of her Mondo Frank in the footage of all yellows Parish sheriff s deputies confronted Frank while he is atop a tractor near the mark s Villa easy on a Wal-Mart and they inform him that they have a warrant for his arrest the warrant according to the sheriff s office was for simple trespassing and attempted unauthorized entry into a dwelling that charges stemmed from a dispute with his neighbors according to the advocate in the footage Frank does not attack the officers he does not make any sudden moves he simply refuses to dismount from the tractor and demands that the deputies identified as Brandon Stillman and Alexander Daniel show him a copy of the arrest warrant the officers tell him that they do not have the warrant in their possession but that he will see it at the sheriff s office step off the tractor when Deputy demands to which Frank replies show me the warrant deputy Stillman then climbs on the tractor grabs Frank from behind and places him in a chokehold Daniel tries to use a taser to shock Frank after he manages to free himself from the choke hold but shock still meant instead you can see Frank gagging hear him gasping for air after a short struggle they managed to handcuff Frank when he becomes still one officer comments he s dead waiting that s a term used by officers for one suspects intentionally make their bodies go stiff and another responds where the head goes the body must follow as they drag his limp body to the police vehicle. Another one of the officers who arrives at the same says Is he breathing Oh he was not Armando Frank was dead his level of resistance starts out as passive it doesn t go to active and aggressive until he s physically assaulted by these deputies as Gregory Gilbertson director of the criminal justice program it s in trail you a college in Centralia Washington he s not attempting to flee he s not assaulting anybody he s sitting on a tractor and he s asking reasonable questions and they are refusing to answer explains Gilbertson one of 2 experts on use of force who reviewed the footage for The Advocate Gilbertson also explained that the lateral vascular neck restraint the name for the choke hold he used to restrain Frank is typically a last resort because of its potential to restrict airflow Gilbertson said it is typically used when deadly force is the only option Philip Stinson another expert from Bowling Green University said officers are entitled to use as much force is necessary to make an arrest which according to Stinson s explanation neg ates part of an obscure little document called the Constitution of the United States of America his 14th Amendment reads in part nor shall any state deprive any person of life liberty or property without due process of law a grand jury declined to indict the officers for negligent homicide in March and the family of Armando has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the officers involved a forensic pathologist ired by. Parish cites manual strangulation as the primary cause of death and ruled it a homicide the report notes that officers restricted Frank s breathing for more than 6 minutes and never made any attempt to resuscitate him adding that Frank said let me up 3 times each one more strange than the last it was his last verbal communication the report says. So if someone were to ask what it feels like being black I would mention Armando Frank I would probably write something about walking around every day knowing you could be plucked from the earth that you could be defiled or that being black is a constant exercise in x. Or sizing that inescapable fact from your mind it s being strong and fragile at once it s the refusal to comply well knowing that it may cost your life it s knowing that complying may still cost your life it is the unrelenting constant decision of choosing between the 2 to be black is to be strangled to gasp for air to be handcuffed when you are limp to be dragged lifeless and unmoving to be deprived of life and liberty statistically speaking it s unlikely that you or I will die like Armando Frank died but I have known what it is to be black to know the predator Hawks will always fly away to beg them let me up let me up let me up in the Onion Dateline Milwaukee Wisconsin expressing his deep and heartfelt regrets regarding how the incident has played out in the media Milwaukee police officer in Phoenix said Monday that he would never have killed an unarmed black man during a routine traffic stop if he had known that everyone would make such a big fuss about the incident quote When I reviewed the unfortunate events of the night of July 11th I m forced to admit that conducting myself differently and reacting with less violence would have avoided this whole said Feeney who referred to the negative media exposure he had received in recent weeks on top of the sheer amount of paperwork he had been made to file as quote a heartbreaking tragedy. Quote living with the consequences of my actions with the sheer weight of public opinion concerning my police work has been a life altering inconvenience I can t wait until this whole chapter ends with an innocent verdict in my favor after receiving word that he d be placed on paid leave and exasperated Feeney complained Oh this is the reward I get for being a good guy and not planting guns and drugs on the victim s body See that s funny that s a funny website where stories are made up that are just like real stories but exaggerated in some tiny way not even exaggerated in this case as true as the true thing and you know with that in mind here s another piece from The Onion wealthy teenager nearly experiences consequence. Dateline Somerset New Jersey in what local authorities are calling a near tragedy Charles Wentworth a 17 year old Rutgers preparatory senior and member of the affluent Wentworth family came perilously close to suffering a consequence resulting from his own wrongdoing Saturday Wentworth made his senior photo shoot even after coming within inches of an actual repercussion from the accident Wentworth reportedly ignoring the protest of his classmates got behind the wheel of his turbo charged Super a 2000 g.t. After consuming half the contents of a bottle of goldfish lager at a friend s party while driving westbound on Route $27.00 a disoriented Wentworth drifted across 2 lanes of traffic and collided with a minivan carrying a family of 4 bringing the teen face to face with a potentially life altering lesson. Wentworth escaped unscathed and unpunished However when his airbags deployed and a team of high powered attorneys rushed to the scene and rescued him from the brink of personal responsibility amazingly Mr Wentworth did not experience a single repercussion for consuming alcohol under age or operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated and is furthermore completely unaware that he did anything wrong local police chief Marvin Taylor said he s a very lucky boy if he had been driving just 5 mph faster or if his parents hadn t had the influence to keep the matter out of court and the endless financial resources to lease a car of the exact same make and model to prevent him from having to face even the relatively trivial humiliation of being taunted by his peers for driving a slightly less expensive vehicle my God who knows what could have happened Taylor added he could have died or worse been held accountable for his actions. According to police reports that have since been shredded and stricken from Wentworth s permanent record when briefly taken into custody the privileged teenager began swearing vomiting and kicking at the windows of the squad car in which he was momentarily placed following the collision Wentworth later said the only thing that got him through that dark time was thinking of his rich well connected loved ones with them in mind he repeatedly shouted Don t you know who I am and summon the strength to refuse a field sobriety test now a lot of kids in Charles situation would have confessed and accepted punishment for their mistake but my son is strong said Wentworth s father aluminum magnate Herman Wentworth who after arriving at the crash site told his son that everything s taken care of and well Charles sat in his father s b.m.w. Texting his friends loudly threaten to call the police commissioner if any charges were pressed Charles would never allow himself to give up and gain valuable insight into the way things work in the real world without a fight district judge and close friend of the Wentworth family Donald lamb agreed . Charles is very lucky to be alive and well off Lamb told reporters the fact that he was able to walk away from this crash with no injuries 0 remorse and his skewed priorities in one piece is a miracle despite returning to the safety of his $2300000.00 home when it s harrowing brush with consequence was not over a week after the new year ordeal Wentworth was again put in jeopardy of learning a lesson when he was nearly sentenced to 50 hours of community service tragedy was averted However when his mother paid a consultant to testify before the judge that Wentworth had suffered emotional trauma further during this time Wentworth was forced to put his video game on pause for several seconds in order to sign an affidavit stating that the breathalyzer was administered improperly. To think that I was that close to seeing that there is an entire society with its own laws and standards outside my protected sphere of wealth and privilege it s frightening Wentworth said it almost makes you consider your actions and their impact on others almost I m just grateful I can finally get back to my life as a self-centered prick who believes the entire world revolves around him Wentworth added After all I was just admitted to Columbia despite almost failing out of high school because I rarely attended class and it would have been a shame to have had to defer for a semester just because of some legal unpleasantry at press time what worth is resting comfortably on a 6 figure inheritance in a chaise lounge by his backyard pool the other 4 victims of the crash remain in intensive care at St Peters University Hospital suffering from conditions ranging from poor to lower class.

Probably there s going to be a movie about that and in other news not in the review. Here s just the 1st paragraph of an article in The New Yorker by Alan Rosner titled It s time to admit that iceberg is a superior lettuce and here here it s I love iceberg lettuce I like the other kinds you know every once in a while get a sandwich you start with crisp fresh loosely loosely grown and not not tightly packed that tight with the kind that s like a softball I hate that kind of edge the loose you know it s very light began to light and you shake it a little bit in your hand before you decide to take it off the shelf and put it in your basket iceberg lettuce that s the foundation. Of any fine salad anyway from the New Yorker Helen Rosner wrote There are many categories of salad snob the ingredient minimalists the chop Evangelists the dressing goes in the bowl 1st Brigade but perhaps that s not true by the way that s bad to put the dressing on afterward so it you know it sinks down from the top but perhaps the most vocal and the most misguided are those dedicated to the denigration of iceberg lettuce to its detractors iceberg is the avatar of commodity gets drawn to me the polyester of lettuces is a popular jibe the influential Times food editor Greg Claiborne famously loathed it it is omnipresent Alice Waters goddess of the Farmer s Market sniffed in a 2001 interview it doesn t have a season and she said it doesn t have a sense of place the only thing iceberg really has going for it is derivative of this line of thinking goes it s lettuce for growers shippers warehouses and sellers not all that is for eaters but like it s glacial namesake that would be a literal iceberg. Iceberg lettuce has a lot more going on beneath the surface for starters it s far from flavor less focus your palate as you take a bite and notice a clean sweetness blooming beneath the watery crunch deepening in the pale ruffle of the inner leaves and stems to a toasty bitterness with whispers of caraway and Korea and her seeds I don t know what they re talking about there it s just a taste like water to me crunchy water it s a carrier for all the things you put on it that have a flavor and it makes it so it s good to eat from the top of the salad to the bottom and iceberg lettuce forever that s when I say I love it in Raw Story Stephen Lamar Foster who s running as a Democrat hoping to unseat Republican Tom Graves for Georgia s 14th Congressional District seat was arrested on September 23.

If anything up and so. We drove up there on Russia shot and that s when I met her because she is Jewish Yeah and she she came what we did was interesting we drove just within miles of my Dad s place to a place called Easy a can which isn t a great place for good Jewish food it s not all Jewish but it s like a giant galley restaurant and I ve heard good things and bad things about the Jews .

And I think neither one of them. You know has has had any kind of alcohol problem I think so that I think their whole thing was well isn t it you know for almost from the outsider s point of view saying well isn t it true that one is you know one isn t you know one is too many in a 1000 isn t enough and I was like That s true that s true I should not drop touch a drop of alcohol I felt like I should and he was on. And I said oh man very well I don t know I don t know and you know I m currently unemployed I ve got the support of those this problem and hoping to get laser surgery but I think. You know I am older than her so I don t know I think I mean she once referred to me as a hard sell to her parents and you could you could really use that 1500000 dollars that was offered to me and not in an e-mail by not a king of Nigeria I don t have the paper in front of me now I don t know where the hell I went to somewhere on the floor there all that stuff here but a $1500000.00 and all you have to do is send them all your hero your kind of dummy you know the kind of dummy that would you know give money to a Nigerian prince but now you don t have to give money to any of this guy in a high jury and and see if he runs a company in China and he wants to he just wants to give the money away because of all the help that you gave him in the past that you don t remember about that did he he knows that you didn t like how they write it has broken English to. You know they write in broken English because they know there are people who go well obviously this is real I mean a real guy wouldn t speak English but if he was from Nigeria or someplace would not speak English that well this is so they just intentionally write these things in broken English you go and remember in Flight Of The Conchords when Murray Yes and sent some money to a Nigerian prince and actually paid the money to fly him over and let him use his computer and his banking information I like that episode you get to actually meet. The guy the same. Guy I mean there s one guy who does all that Santa Claus you know is great use of his when you die on me putting out e-mails and you know he was smart enough to jump on board but you know in the in the announce list serv the m.c.n. Announced list serv which I think you d be a cool thing if you got on because I think you d get a kick out of it and the discussion lists are all I would send you the information necessary to take it you can t have too many people involved there you know with a brain in their head because you know you ve got to do it otherwise you know I m out numbered so there we are and somebody wrote as as a result of getting the Digest version which and replied to something someone wrote without any mark on what he was replying to except that it was the Digest version in the subject line and he wrote simply I did in you know an exclamation mark at the end of that. Right and I wrote I wrote you that s Congratulations. What did you do and then that reminded me of that part in Flight Of The Conchords remember when Marie and and Brett and Dave are in the alley because that s the alley that Brett fled abandoning Jimmy into his fate you know when the knife mongers were after them and they were talking about him being dead except there was a confusion because Marie and Brett are from New Zealand and Dave is from New York and when Marie said said he maybe did and Dave said he maybe did what and then there was a a long kind of who s on 1st What s on 2nd thing that ended up with ended up with are you fuckin with me or you guys fucking with me Dave says because he maybe did you know I know he maybe did but what if he maybe do and then he finally finally figures out that the guy he may be dead and he says oh oh oh oh. Well that accent is almost Afrikaans I mean it s so odd he has such an odd accent it doesn t sound like using our scrutiny it sounds like someone from Afrikaans there s a there s a line in the 2nd Lethal Weapon movie where. The guy s full on Danny Glover you know the actor Danny Glover the black actor partnered up with. Gibson in this film they did a string and it was a cop movie but a cop movie and you know there s they ve done everybody comp and if you think about it one of the 1st buddy com films even that was very dramatic and one of the 1st ones was it s always the white guy you know regular white you know Anglo-Saxon white guy and they came up with some not that that s 90 percent of them and some of them have done done it with take somebody who was a white male. And team up with really one of the 1st films was I think it was American forces or Dirty Harry was one of the times they team up with a woman trying daily and that was the odd couple that was together you know what oh my gosh Dirty Harry teamed up with a woman can to bring great of course you know he s you know why don t we give it away but can she try to slap him with this workers he live in a fog a place and she tried to stab him in the back with a scissors she had no sound of his bloody. You know she ends up getting killed in the resolution of him getting revenge for me Misty for Me That s what I m thinking there s a white confident black cop there s a white cop and I had a dog called Canine there s a white cop in a rush and that s Jim Belushi and Arnold Schwarzenegger in things that this sort of thing was wired into our brains and just you know needing of any common outlet Yeah good it s a good thing in there always working for a guy their boss didn t One guy have a have a monkey for. Sure positive and well last week on the screen last week on the show I played a nobody I remember that the one about the. There was a last minute but it happened they were he was a he was like a progression there s a thing that click click called Go to click hole and look up Rhino crime solving because there were there s a there s an essay there s a an essay that I played the audio from about it was an interview thing with with a bunch of people who had been rhino horn poachers who had you know the miracle occurred that just it happened that that a rhino that they might in their earlier life have killed and you know cut his horn office face with a chainsaw and taken away left the rhino there you know dead had ended up he didn t kill it and it ended up saving saving an investigation and helping himself a crime. And a lot of this happens a lot apparently there did you ever see it but he got one that you were really good for undercover work you received but he got them that you might. I remember the one where. Axel Foley who was the actor the it was a funny guy was a comedian very funny very funny. Eddie Murphy Annie Murphy and he was what was written 1st of us are still believe it is. Kind of hard to do this scene where the scene where they come to get him and he s he s facing the wall and he s got headphones on and he s singing along in much broken fashion with Roxanne which is weird because I just played just a half an hour ago I played a tango version of Roxanne you just mentioned never happened but I ll tell you what it is in the movie 48 hours which is also a buddy cop a cop and a con he goes to pick up Eddie Murphy and when you 1st hear the river is this is where he s like Introduction to fame is in 48 hours which is the same year almost as it was just before the reals come but he wanted to get the guy out of a cell anything listening to Roxanne and singing. Bakley and stopping and starting That s a pretty good gets made different movies and you can image them together Yeah but see I don t care about that I don t have any I m not a journalist I m something else something worse Ok You know I listen I do like a buddy cop and I can recommend it to you haven t seen it and maybe you ve seen it it s called alienation a little hey yeah yeah it s a it s a it s not a t.v. Series but it is a buddy Compton because it is it s a cop in England was it a t.v. Series 1st or was it a movie 1st time was a movie 1st I didn t care much for the series but I thought the movie was banned I thought that I give the series it was watchable but the movie that it s based on I give it a it was James Caan playing the regular cop you know they don t stray far from it hard drinking give worst you know that whole thing and he s teamed with an alien now at this point it s a little bit like what s the movie you know. The aliens and they re in South Africa . And they re District 9 yeah it s a little like District 9 in the aliens have come here and many of them are living in slums many of them have become addicted to and they look just like us except their heads are a little bigger than ours and they have been a leper the spots on their stretch again are kind of spotted in many taken place the alien partner and it s No really I ve got to see that just one movie alienation I think but a good grade but it was funny was it was kind of a takeoff on the buddy cop film but it is being actually a good buddy cop because it s also true of a buddy cop film you know the 9 times out of 10. The white guy is a hard drinker while the original buddy cop story is Sherlock Holmes in a way that s right I just I just I got the 60 year of. Of elementary and I just started watching it and it s it just gets better and better I really like those 2 actors and I like the one with Benedict Cumberbatch is very good and that s all you know it s it is kind of hard to ruin Sherlock Holmes it is nobody s really there was a really good movie years ago. Back in the seventy s with the charity Scott and Joe and Woodward and it was d called They Might Be Giants and I don t know if the band got their name from this but. Is a term they might be giants is a reference to you know Quixote which is a well it s a it s a reference to old time talent shows and they were they would say they might be stars They Might Be Giants you know they know I didn t know that yet so this movie called They Might Be Giants is about a man who thinks that he s sure Locke. And he s his doctor is actually named Watson played by Joe and Woodward and of course they end up going on a you know a detective story and a mystery Did you ever see a film about about a man who is in a mental institution and a man who loves the book that the madman wrote the children s book he grew up with as millions of people did in the fictional universe of the movie with he did that mans children s book about a magical world I mean it might have been Narnia or someplace like that yeah this was that popular in the story and then of the man is the man is insane and he s played by Sir Ian McKellen and he believes that that world exists and he s hiding from the bad people or creatures who are you know chasing him down in this movie do you remember the I don t remember but I m sure all good imo it s either in Macallan or that other one that you mistake for Ian McKellen every once in a while. Patrick Stewart or you know another only because of the Voice know another another actor who looks a lot like him like an apple doll. Yeah old guy. Think of it is the British as well. And we ve got it like been kind of a British accent I think it s like I think invent think we both have some photographing fairies says Ben Kingsley that was that was a monster of a wonderful movie that probably 6 people ever saw but I would recommend that to anybody I saw a movie with him and I I don t know maybe a dozen people then came to like it or to see call turtle diary and it was by the printer to help it you re right there e slow he wrote The servant he wrote he writes very slow talky things were done and I remember just being me and 3 other people who don t got together because we re like Harold Pinter fans of. A lonely group and they were enjoying this wonderful film but I don t think that the San Diego branch of the Harold Pinter club you know his heavy Go is is not a cultural town I grew up there and I found I was part of the I d like to think anyway I was part of the only cultural scene that was there I knew because they invited me to do this thing called the oh gosh what s it called the Fringe Festival and it s an artistic thing to they have those in the hall big cities because I think I associate that with Ireland but comes around all cities and when it hit send me a go they would ask me that s how I felt that I was part of the cultural thing to play some part in like literally they go do you want to do something and then say yeah and you know I was kind of a well known of my book was a was up of the San Diego book or things like that and I was I was well known a it was up for the or didn t win any awards because I didn t know about that. No it didn t when I got was nominated again something where it was just I knew from the 2nd I thought what it was neat and this guy was a former CIA guy he was in the CIA and he wrote these incredible stories about his adventures in the CIA and then it was up against my book which was just the filthy goofy stories and I wouldn t have picked my poking at the talking raccoon I knew I was going away also when the woman that announced clearly had never heard of my book and thought it had a ridiculous that there this other man wrote the analysis of the analysis of crime or something like this and wrote this great title and she goes and the other day I m These Oh Chip Chip chalk tales of the insane you know just the way it s just like that like what that was. And I was like and she was on the panel you know she was a 6 people that were definitely not I mean she was president of the voted and she had never heard of it so I read it I don t think she read I don t maybe not only something unfair was going on you know some kind of hydrogen between that guy and her didn t have a great shock of white hair and mutton chop sideburns and and a you know hidden bulge you know for a gun inside his inside the side of his pants there and all that he didn t look like any and that he looked like some guy that was a retired accountant or something like that but I mean you know because they can sneak in and do the job and get out and he would never do those raging really was I mean you know he may have had his actual parents maybe the perfect cover. Or it might have been the result of surgery surgery or we could save his life it might not be even his real name he might have had an entirely other name and you know what people do it Harry Houdini grave they go there and right. Before you know it says it is Harry Houdini this you know born this year parodied this year and people keep adding years to the book but to get the idea was the escape but a book they kept shouldn t be too hard to find out you know yeah yeah I think and then you had to dig you up anymore they can they can shoot these these low energy x. Rays into the ground and combine it with sonar and they can find out at least whether somebody is there an op ed then of course you need to dig them up and find out if it s the right person because it could be anybody else they shoved in at the last instant I had a knife I had a nice experience a couple of weeks ago this is what I was saying about cynical I would find where it s like people s There was a I think the thing was gold is where you find it in other words really famous night in San Diego. Who famous died in San Diego Oh I can tell you and I ll think of his name in a moment but I ll tell you this he was in La Jolla he was at the law someone and reforms play something possibly the lawyer playing us and he was oh gosh he was a funny guy I liked him and he died on stage is that who you re talking about he was in La Hoya and he was on stage any died on stage and people for a moment or 2 thought it was part of the act that he Richard shot Dick Sean Dick Shawn he was an actor he was in It s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World he was very funny in that. And he got on stage I know that there was a famous binge with any called the farmers and that country get Montana was their lead singer and he died on the country Dick Montana that s Ok he s not the Great if you may have heard his one hit song made you will you be seeing just a tiny bit of it Ok it was called happy voice and it was very alternative songs the only alternative stations you could you could find and play it on your show I know I ll find out I just I never heard of it and he goes well I just found up to the sun is gay hubba hubba hubba All right look and all them go get a bale of a hubba hubba hubba but I had a boy have I ever bought so he s dead now I happened by and and I know I saw last week at the fair morning and I went to the Sonoma County Fair and paid you some incredible amount of money to just park the car and then had to pay to get in our gate after we parked the car and once we were in a side I had like going to any of those I don t know yeah I was there was a lot you know it s for Jesus but it was you know it s a thing that we do we go to the Sonoma County Fair a few years ago I threw up on a ride there and we re trying to recreate the experience because it meant so much to us they had a they had a booth for that a booth for Trump supporters there and they had an across the aisle you know and around the corner they had a booth for. You know the Democratic Party and they were equally grim I mean they were just. I think though I don t want to be repaired anything yeah but they re just waiting you know and I walked by I thought I was going to say something to the Democrats but there was the guy was looking at me like well I had that funny hat on because I couldn t find my real hat and I was freezing to death so I went back to the car and got this sort of Nordic sort of hat that has flaps and in little braids of yarn coming off of it I don t care you know if I m cold or uncomfortable I don t care what I look like to feel better but they did they were looking at me like I was some kind of a bug so I didn t want to go over and offer them any kind of encouragement. It s so funny you know there was you know an incentive and point oh sourdough slim sorry it s sourdough sourdough slim yodeling accordion playing cowboy and that he wouldn t stop that was who I saw there and he was a he was like he was like a. Botched w.c. Fields like character he had a leader in his voice and everything he said was a double entendre that was unsuitable for the 3 year old child God He was great he was wonderful he d been doing it all his life and he sounded he sounded and looked great he had the Cowboy uniform and the cowboy boots and he had a guitar there and he kept looking over at it like he was going to go and play a bit but he did he never went over he never took the accordion off and he never played the guitar because he he didn t know how to play the guitar he just always brought it and said it over there so he could look at it every once in a while and think maybe this time I ll do it well it s funny it s for his famous and he just gets on. The Heaven s Gate people were in San Diego County North All right you know a guy there and Brenda Spencer shot. People and I heard the gunshot just over the hill from where I lived I mean literally I used to go to that school to purvey spoke to tell about Brenda Spencer entry. And that s Brenda Spencer you know her she was depressed and her dad knew that you re depressed her mom was left and so he gave her a high powered rifle why did he give it to or. Why did he give her the rifle she was depressed. Human furniture for a president to be cheer her up hunting there s no hunting in San Diego the most good hunters rabbits and skate by rifle do not think there s really nothing it just explodes and there s no meat left after you hit a mostly no no I mean you know and they scream by the way when you shoot them I shot one with a I hate that when my that sound they don t listen let me tell you something I did this once I was 2223 and my brother and I were kind of smashed we went over to. Kind of a baseball park near the lake alcohol is there anything you can do I know exactly where it is and we were just. Just smash and he said Come on come on you know kind of put me into it you know don t be a pussy and all that and I did and believe me I don t I think there s still had time I let anybody you know put see me into not a good reason to go. On your mark sort of thing so I went and did it and I shot when I hit a rabbit and I went and jumped up into the ground. I just threw the weapon down and walked away I said Yeah everybody has a laugh and that song is about a mile away that I walked her of I was like I don t want to ever do that and Ok I ve done it I know what is like terrific never need to experience that again so no Brenda Spencer and then she went out now a woman that I dated on and off for years her younger sister was one of the kids not. My friend Linda filmic her sister Monica was shot and was kind of a chubby little girl and I went right through and never her and went right through like her side and didn t touch any you know just went through just nothing important in there it just went right through and didn t shout but she was in shock and fell down all the kids hit the ground heroically she was still shooting at the end these kids were right across the street she was shooting at them just from the front lawn very calmly relaxed and shooting at them not under by the way under no. No alcohol no drugs nothing just bored went out there and was shooting at these kids and with a gun her father gave her because she had been deterred protective to try to protect them. This principle on the channel or. What they did was they they did it and now I forget exactly was the Pedro like put a dumpster used to like a forklift and try to put a dumpster between the kids and you know so they were cover and they were both shot in the effort to protect the child and killed. She never killed any of the children but she killed the principal in the. Janitor Well that s something anyway bigger targets that s all there was to it she had not I don t think she fired a gun for this and well it doesn t take much you know all you got to do is point and we saw Officer when they were trying to get her and finally the huge very calmly you know they got the weapon got off the weapon and somebody asked her why did she do it and you remember what her response was I did I had forgotten entirely about her if I ever knew just tell me what it is that I don t like Mondays and you can play that song because that became a hit song Hey what it was I don t like by the Boomtown Rats.

From Comics and Games to movies and t.v. This is the nerd show from 1310 and J.F.K. s. From the c.r. Paid for by 4 studio years travel as a dream there and one guy talking dirty to me like you it was. Ok honestly actually kind of weird at this point really I feel straight I feel like I m the only person in my age group that isn t still obsessed with Gary Potter there s a 30 year old to 3 way or other reason Claus during the series I . Was all over your letters not coming I got let me call center. I feel like that was a dig at us yes it was yeah I don t know about their ages like you stupid day I know you re not in my thirties and I was a very good chance I will get my letter and I will be sorted and awful pub so screw you I found that on me. Never really got a thing I ll try to find it right but in a very funny Well welcome to the nerd show. Oh yeah it s the things that happen here yeah if I feel like if people only saw what happened like before the show starts at the commercial break they would probably be a little shocked but we were talking religion today last week it was politics which went really well for us because we all agree entirely all 3 of us are entirely under same page Well not us I agree with you on that yeah the religious religious talk with much easier yeah we were talking more hypothetical none of us like were like oh I m attached to this religion and yes is why you re wrong whereas we all seem to be attached to the idea that everybody else is wrong in our politics that. Because everyone else is wrong. Let s talk videogames Let s do that let s let s not go there. All right so a story that might get pulled up from screen rants by Robin Burke s talks about that video games will be 100 percent digital by 2022 let s let s discuss that number before we get anywhere into this 100 percent I mean it s not a dollar not a dime not a penny will be spent on physical games in any capacity in 4 years from now for used games of course well but and that makes no sense because I feel like wouldn t like say the music industry already be there because think about them oh yeah by their music through online and through digital download but they still have C.D. s like you can still go to Target or Wal-Mart and buy it buy a cd wait can you Best Buy just drop their C.D. s who really Best Buy dropped their C.D. s about 3 months ago but you can Ok so here s where it is the reason I was looking at that are is that specially music stores are starting to pop up because Wal-Mart and Target and Best Buy don t have those anymore and that infrastructure raids this there are going to always be people and it may be a smaller group and it may not be a financially huge sure yeah yeah but there s always good people people that want to buy their their games physical sure and I m that person but I but I d like the physical copy and we re seeing that with a lot of industries bookstores the new wave is is all of these little mom and pop bookstores that are succeeding and thriving where Barnes and Noble felt because these you know as these things become less broad it requires navigating things you can t just throw everything on the shelf and expected to sell it s kind of like the books or or the comic book store the reason I do well is because I could do what Barnes and Noble and Target and Walmart can t do it s entirely inefficient for them to try. And so no matter how digital everything else goes all of us little stores get to exist what you re I think you re going to see is all of these little video games source that exist are going to be the primary distribution point for physical games Game Stop and game force than liking Wally game for seeing became of our 2nd or store you know and lots of little source like that will be able to handle video games because we know how to navigate and the industry will have to adjust to focus on us sure and we re starting to see that with games right there with toys right now the toy industry just watched one of its 3 biggest mortars I too as are us buy toys arrest Barnes and Noble s looking at downsizing possibly a lot of categories I don t know if games that are toys on their games is but what happens is all the sudden I m getting calls from from distributors they re like hate We re not carrying games and the margin has just gotten better this is now accessible to small business I got a new distributor today they call the they re like hey we re taking that backwards way that toys have been delivered to small stores for years and years and we re just seeing that we re consolidating that you re not going to deal with 85 reps you get 85 different games and so we re seeing that shift and I think that what you re going to see is digital games go the same route and some point they go you know what this this business model doesn t work for the small company to carry new games in the big guys out. Let s adjust this our cost is the r. And d. Our cost is covered by the digital Let s make that extra money by printing this on a cd it costs an extra buck to print it what s printed on cd and send it out and make some money that way too well then with that said what do you think will become a game stop because I know I said I recently read an article saying that they re looking for a buyer because they are headed straight for the ground and they ve already they bought out think yes and they started bringing in pops and action figures and they re doing it poorly Yes I think that Game Stop is going to do Windell until it becomes a manageable size company I think that there s room for a a chain but not something on that scale sure and I think the smartest thing they could do would be split it up and have regional chains have like Game Stop West that includes 5 or 6 states and is one manager running you know a couple dozen stores and that s that s that bite size that fits because as a nationwide chain there s 2 minutes variance and you have to start worrying about those variances as your as your. Potential target audience grow smaller and smaller Sure well and I guess one of the things that we have to watch as we have 3 game stops in the city of Greeley Yeah so we ll see if that big change happens which one of them survived I d imagine the one in the mall would be wiped out. I mean right now it s still I mean the mall no matter how good what Greeley Mall is is still a muggle friendly place is still the place where you know. You re me like who I heard of Zelda Maybe I ll try like a better school like your hardcore gamers are going to start buying online more and more I actually think the malls probably least in threat to lose what customer base it has left and just for a little bit more context let me read a little bit of this as of May play or. $9100000000.00 on digital game downloads this year and comparison they only spent $7300000000.00 on the previous year free to play games such as fortnight taking around $200000000.00 per year downloadable mobile games also continue to increase in sales every year by around 36 percent. Well and we are we re seeing we re seeing business models that are just you know even looking at movies movies took a step further because blockbuster kind of held all of the little guys at bay I m going to long last I haven t heard that. In a minute. But I think that you re going to see the same thing you can still pipe D.V.D. s and you know I think even more than music if anything was going to go away it would have been the D.V.D. s already I think that what you re going to start seeing is you re going to see media stores you re going to see a place where you could buy a couple cool D.V.D. s Blu rays music and video games because that they all kind of coexist sure and if you re if you re. Nimble enough to navigate them all because you re only trying to order for 2 or 3 stores and you can account for your personal customer s tastes you could do really well in that chair well I guess we ll see I tend to agree with you both I don t think that this is something realistic by 2022 like it does and the article says that all of the revenues will come from digital sales and that doesn t make sense to me so now you know you could put this so in such a way like C.D. s still exist but how much of the money is from a cd sell anymore that s true so you could look at this is as as all as long as you re defining all this less than 100 percent it s probably like 90 percent of your revenue for and that mission comes from either their touring stuff or from their digital downloads you know it becomes that significant but again the cost was to record the song putting on a cd cost them the next rip up yeah why not make some money off that. Sure I guess we ll see things that we have what for years the at this figured out for years are I m taking bets with Robin Burke s main screen. And the next story is Lucas Film reportedly puts All Star Wars story spinoffs on hold now obviously so low wasn t there quite the return that they thought they would see but as you have some said multiple times that is kind of their own fault Yeah terms of marketing but evidently they are putting some of them on hold including the Boba Fett spin off so this isn t exactly the fallout that I said but like 3 months ago Mike looked at solo films going to tank units they were everything else Star Wars I expected to reduce returns on Episode 9 which we still haven t gotten there I still wouldn t be surprised to see that. This movie film did damage and this is this is the 1st of that blowback from that and again it wasn t the movie it was the marketing sure. And the fact that they ve fired 4 directors last 4 teams of directors in the last few years there there s a confidence problem too yeah and I think we talked about that I think we had an article a couple weeks ago that was talking about that but it is no it was my friend wrote a blog he wrote a blog about solo and he was talking about how much it was about the perception and he went into that movie not expecting anything because of the fire directors because of the Bri she 70 percent film was risotto according to yes because of all of these things that were coming out he expected this thing to be bad and the perception was what drove the sells because it s like we watched it was fun my son loved it I enjoyed it like it was my favorite Star Wars film ever but it was me it was good it was worth watching and that the numbers were all he talked about were results of all of the behind the scenes stuff because that was the image and it was it was a blog article about how it is all about your image and not about what you actually produce and he talks about how many businesses fall into that how much of the expectation is you know. What you expect coming in versus what you actually get when you get there share this same friend actually talked to me about that when I 1st opened my store by the time we opened that opening day by the time we close we had a 1000 likes on Facebook which was huge it s massive for a new store and we had these 5 stars coming in and he said you know what you ve done is you said expectation no nobody is liking your store because of what they received that they got these likes before you even opened they liked it because from what you set up those 5 star reviews are because of the hope they are buying into your hope and your dreams are not into your store yes reality may may hurt a little and fortunately it wasn t too bad I think we lived up to more of the expectation then he thought oh yeah yeah no reception is definitely a key part of marketing people bought into the store long before we had a store to buy into Sure and everything about our opening was was good and we see this with other things as well I ve got a friend who s got a store that they sold and the new owners the way they re handling their marketing people aren t buying into it and it s it s become this whole huge problem and it s not because the new stores bad or even that different it s because the way they ve presented it has changed so much that the community is buying into it differently. Well that that is a very good way of putting what exactly happened to Selo perception of things can definitely determine the ultimate value so I am going way to business no I can just manage this isn t this is the business report on the nerds so you know right we definitely want to buy right but I mean and I guess another one that I should mention is that they were there was a long rumored that they were going to be making Obi Wan Kenobi movie movie but that has been folded as has the Boba Fett movie yeah and. What was that there was one of them like Oh that looks like it s really sad. Death with that one it was it was a spin off directly out of solo I felt like maybe it was the Boba Fett one and that was just sad sad to lose those ones. I m trying to remember what I said Lando one action. Well that kind of sucks because he was a really good Lando that s that s what Yeah that was the one that was May have been the best part of the movie I honestly think that he was like his character was definitely the most enjoyable to watch I thought that he played the part very well so that kind of that has to suck for you to do so well in this movie but for the movie to do so poorly that your movies are no longer in the works but he s not really hurting though he s right now one of the rules yeah if you were people sure sure as an actor and as a musician but still like imagine though you had your own Star Wars movie like that s that s out of the picture. Now well I m going to go see a star is born in October and that s like you re about the ceiling if you are but. Well I m trying I m trying to think there s got to be some good movies coming out this year and means coming out whether that s good or I mean I don t read but not that much I mean like you re going out how I want that one has potential Man Yeah with Jason Momoa Yeah. Now I know in my case I m a mole and I m not into that sorry as a straight man that is absolutely no. Other Man at all I am into that no I just saw his for what movie was he in very briefly recently though he was they they showed honestly yeah briefly didn t they Yeah he was in Justice League not into it sorry I ll wait for stars I don t think it was well. That s what I hear a lot of the problem was but I also heard that they scrapped a lot of what they actually filmed of him I think we re hearing a lot about that I yeah we re hearing there s a Zack Snyder. Maybe there is and we re hearing a lot of Zack Snyder got fired I think can they change their head of yeah there s a lot of changes over the d.c. Cinematic Universe and I think they re going about it wrong they took their most talented person author moved him back to the comics and then into his own independent film series a new year just like Ok That wasn t how you do this but yeah I ll take it Geoff Johns is spreading comics again and he s good at it so.

Is moving forward with their plans to adapt the comic book character of Swamp Thing into a t.v. Series for their streaming service d.c. Universe Aqua Man director James Wan will take on the project along with Iran Sarah Sarah fee and I m really excited to not see the word c.w. In that are earning that report anywhere sure. Like one c.w. Superhero show is fine they all feel the same and I m tired of them all yeah I want something other than goofy We can t move on past the plots I feel like there are those shows are always like are produced by teenagers I don t know why I get that via a very much feel like it yeah right like that s totally the vibe that I get but the Swamp Thing it sounds familiar but I don t think I know one thing is a batman. I don t want to say villain he is he s a he s in the Batman universe in the d.c. Universe he is half man half forced womp he got fused in it in an accident and so he can control the plants and their earth around him and he s very much he is Captain Planet like on steroids he is like protect the earth at all costs you have you seen the John Cheadle Captain Planet. Oh my God I mean I ve heard Captain Planet from way back when Ok so he s more like John Cheadle bird. Captain Planet like but now you re a tree and you re a tree like he s not a he s a villain because he s willing to kill people to save the planet but he s not a villain because he s not really self-serving So would you consider him an anti-hero not even that yeah he s he s just an antagonist I like that I feel like that s something I could relate to yeah I think I think maybe that is one thing I will watch so Swamp Thing will be out soon. Patrick Stewart close to deal with c.b.s. To play Picard again according to mirror 77 year old Patrick Stewart is close to securing a deal with c.b.s. To return as Captain Picard in a reboot of Star Trek The Next Generation series co-creator Alex Kurtzman is under a 5 year contract and has discussed Stewart s with the actor Stuart admitted to recently visiting stage 8 which has been their primary home for Star Trek t.v. Shows at Paramount Studios. This is actually a pretty big nerd that is a kind of is a pretty big Yeah 25 years later. Captain Kirk is coming back. Hard hard and there s the same guy right. There yeah For Yeah Ok I thought so. What s I find so surprising is Ok so this is like 20 something years ago has Patrick Stewart liked change at all. He looks a little bit older especially when he lets the his hair grow out because then you can see that it s like an inch and a half in the back and that s it the bald spot has grown down past his ears but I mean like he still seems like young in like lively and like willing to work so that s a good thing yeah he I like him he s you know that sort of who doesn t like what do you think about it I m a little worried because I m one of those leave well enough alone guys but I m excited to get it. Yeah I mean we ll just wait till Captain Kirk comes back to reprise his role next year oh no. That is the reason why you kind of wonder Trek. I would imagine so. Just saying all right next door a Jeremy Irons joins Watchmen t.v. Series Damon Lindelof Watchmen t.v. Series has added another actor Jeremy Irons has been cast in a lead role for the upcoming h.b.o. Series no details on which character irons will play have been released I love Jeremy Irons and he is one of my favorite actors of all time when does this series come out is this this year because this is something I m looking forward to. Watch men. Should not be a movie it needs to be 0 yeah no Like the time to explore these characters as long as it s a limited series as long as they re not like oh yeah this is just to go on until I die Yeah because then they re going to make it and then they re going to make it bad and then they re going to make it for 2 more seasons and then it will end if they that s how every t.v. Show that should be a short series and dad we re looking at you. Yeah I love Jeremy Irons so I m super excited for there s only a couple of people that he could be too old to play a lot of the characters he could be were Shaq and then he could be could be one of the earlier generation. Watchmen because the watchman book follows the 2nd generation of Watchman and and it s a lot of that is there they re coming of age and they re coming into their their own I don t know that you would call him a lead if he is one of the earlier generation ones. Possibly comedian I still think comedians like I don t know c n Arnold Schwarzenegger is in a comedian more I see yeah actually still them would be better at it than sports nearby to actually really rather not see either of them and they re both really old with Jeremy Irons just doesn t have that muscular build but he kind of has the demeanor he could pull that one off I would say he out of those 3 needs he is the superior actor also I m not sure that you would consider the comedian a lead role. Comedian spoiler alert this story is. Who killed comedian I see so he s not a very long well congratulations Jeremy Irons right next story garden Guardians Of The Galaxy Volume 3 is finished according to James Gunn the mind behind Guardians Of The Galaxy volumes one and 2 he has finished writing the 3rd volume he made the announcement via Twitter I saw this actually this tweet actually he was like so happy. I have a no no. Ok so I know it s happening and I hate it the only way Guardians Of The Galaxy 3 even exists is if they undo. What we are you know that s what s going to happen I know but I hate it quit telling me about I live in the world. Infinity wars and it just ended there I would be fine. I mean anybody. Bizarro world where they re all evil. And I hope I m. Left. Well know who did. I think rock and group and I mean. I think you. Already know with. A universe where you come back whenever you want next story crowded comic book being adapted by Rebel Wilson Australian actress known for her comedic work has announced that she will be starring and producing the adaptation of the comic book crowded the comic series will not hit 15 but.

Very cool all right and the last story of the day Tom Holland accidentally leaks Spider-Man homecoming sequels official name while making an instagram update for his fans Spider-Man actor Tom Holland accidently gave away a spoiler the actor held up a tablet for a brief moment which showed the title of the sequel which is Spider v.m. Far from home. The same no the same No as I just gave to Guardians Of The Galaxy No I think the same way I think we re all we all feel the same way those who died should stay dead. Everything else everything that comes after this is just that doesn t count anymore yeah no you re right is not canon Yeah they all died they all died they re staying dead Ok so what are you to yeah maybe they could maybe they could all make a little musical. That are canon Well kind of wait wait wait what if instead of dying what if they were all set to an alternate universe what if they were sent to Earth 616. And on Earth 616 we get to follow their adventures and Spiderman far from home could totally work for that Guardians 3 would have everybody but rocket and they re all living in an alternate universe because they died yeah and on top of that they weren t they weren t killed though Mike just because their noses thought he was killing them. He was actually just saying them so an alternate universe and in this alternate universe the X.-Men co-exist with all of these because Disney has already bought Fox Oh God it could be it is your musical There it is that it s a musical produced by just made and.

As they come or go but this is a kissing to read the nerd story. For the nerd show and 13 year for a. Welcome back all right so our comment this week is Lost City explorers but real quickly this is by aftershock comics yes and before the show you were you were talking yes. I really enjoy everything that they put out like from the asset mix to the stories that they tell in their comics what was the graphic novel that you talk shock they just they re winners for me everything that they put out just they it speaks to me I enjoy the diversity of the characters and the stories that they tell I mean to give it to them because I mean we read d.c. We read you know different brands I think aftershock has to be my favorite I I agree they make amazing stuff Mike and you are going to know we get we did the whole shock look yes that was incredible Yes We I believe it was nerd you know approved it was really one of the best things I ve ever read and guys listeners if you haven t read it yet if you haven t picked it up you ve got yes is a must read a must own and aftershock came last year to the nerd store the President Joe pro who you. Speer writer on X.-Men. His Also an extra walking cat he was a zombie. But he was he was talking to me and I said you know what comic I d really love you guys to make I d love you to make something that feels a little bit like stranger things and is geared towards an older teen I said I know all of your stuff right now is mature but I d really like to see it branched out that way for that particular book this when they announced this they said it s for older teens and it s it s got a. Stranger things feel so this is literally them listening to me and again I said I was going to take credit for and I m going to glow this was them saying Ok Travis if that s what you think it s going to sell We re going to we re going to put some effort into that and and they did and they created something and I liked it and I m really really excited but I think I think I just want to say thank you to aftershock because you know you listen to us as well as making great stuff so sure the actual book here yes the last city explorers the premise of the story is that Atlantis is actually was on Manhattan Island and they got lost underneath the city and so we just kind of introduce the characters and whatnot the main characters father gets sucked into Atlantis everybody assumes he s dead except the kids and his partner. And so that s that s the premise that we ve set up I enjoyed this I think I really enjoyed it to like i always a enjoyed like the modern touches and you kind of have one of the female characters taking a selfie during a funeral which I was like that is so it was so cringe worthy that I got the main character is just going to beat her and she should have that s so tacky don t do that people but I just think that this story that they re trying to tell is just not something that I ve read before because I mean who would think of Atlanta s under Manhattan like that s just not you know any like anywhere else in the world. Story has been told but under Manhattan it s just different and I so I definitely really really enjoyed this one I m I really want to see them actually get down to Atlantis I want to see them go spelunking I want to see what their interpretation of this world is. Zack Kaplan is a great writer he s kind of up and coming doesn t have as large of portfolio but he did a good job on this Michael what s your thoughts I thought it was great I didn t think I would like it because I am about 20 years older than the people that it targeted towards and I usually I m not into that every book should be about 35 year old like . I think you d like the Broncos star trek and dark wink Do I sound like that everywhere Yeah. This was really good I didn t joy it all right so so here s the next question is this something you re going to pick up week to week or are you waiting for a graphic novel we tend to wait for a graphic novel and a lot of these I ve I don t know I kind of like the idea of a graphic novel in this type of story but I m just that Personally I m not I m not the type of person who s like consistent enough to go week after week for something like this or I don t think that maybe even their target audience is going to be that kind of you know person that goes week by week but if they do a graphic novel I ll buy it I think the story was great oh they will they will just be about 6 months from now sure so think of this is the advance trailer Micah is this something you re thinking in picking up every month when it comes out in single issues or you think the graphic novels well it would probably be graphic Ok And what s our rating I m not going to go like super high because it wasn t the best comic book I ve ever read but I m going to give it like an 8.9 because it definitely was a great story great aesthetics I enjoyed this comic. I m going to give it an 8.5 with really good Travis it s up to you know I m just going through in the middle 887 I like to say and I think this has potential to grow higher It also has potential to what was the m. Night Shyamalan one about science yeah has a real science potential that I worry that we re going to actually see Atlantis and be like. So I move a little bit hesitant here but as long as we don t pull an m. Night Shyamalan I m going probably increase that as time goes on by minute 87 right now. But one thing about the music was incredible. Well aftershock does it again I mean to me they just can t do any wrong every single comic of theirs that you ve put in front of me to read I absolutely love so all right well the back of this had a preview to. Another comic one that is actually I mean we have really number one or number 0 on Free Comic Book Day So this is going to be the next follow up so read that tell me what you think see if that should be our comic of the week when that one comes out but. Yeah nurture approved boom. So all right when we come back we ll talk about what s happening July 4th who. Will be right back. How do you make it.

And I still make excuses every weekend not to get their barbecue because to be honest they were my neighbors they were close friends I didn t particularly want to be spending time making small talk with these people so I still make excuses every weekend I mean every weekend for about 3 summers alone and I used to have to creep out before the barbecue started my own house to go out to avoid the neighbors having a barbecue.

Work hard. me Stories music a slight nightmare in charge of my after 11 guess now is John Noble he s a postman and he s been doing the same route and Lester from nearly 40 years he s got snow every one of the 356 families who delivers to on his route and as you will hear he s never failed to get a piece of mail to the right person in 4 decades Wow. I want to delights for him to join me on the program right now John thank you very much indeed for coming on to the program tonight OK thank you very much Grant Now you clearly by your actions not reach me from less just tell me a little bit about your family background and if you can then show well I originally come I was born in Scotland and a place called Open which is on the West Coast a lovely little seaside town and as I say I joined a Royal Mail straight from school and through my running which I did right throughout my my school days Royal Mail had a loss for worked on day I was never ever at work up in openness I was always doing races for Royal Mail to in 1981 they transferred me down to less to because it was easy being in the Midlands to do all the races Well when you were up at home in Oban and there was you with a with the moment dad my brother to your child with a happy to see your formative years in Ogun Yes it was a fantastic as a sea I ve got such a clear mind I can remember it all and when I go up the I now there s House sees in the fields we re just like everything there s redevelopment but I remember the good old days so yes it was fantastic. So you find your way down to Leicester then through 3 running I ll believe you wanted to be a P.T. Just aren t That s right I was going to go to Jordan Hill College ing Glasgow but there was waiting list and this job came up as a postman and I thought Obama will keep me fit and also keep my running going as well because at that time I never knew that Royal Mail had to Mark s porch attached to is. All right so you will this is a good opportunity to get involved in and as you said role model that she apart from doing the job for all mile and she got you to do a lot of running in being where you were in Scotland was possibly not the right part of the U.K. To be in to be taking potshots Shrike Glasgow you see was a 100 miles farther down the city and that was in these days there was only 2 trains so if you went down for a resort or anything like that and it wasn t always Glasgow but if you went for a race it was actually the getting by would probably take you 2 days in these days and of course in the middle and Lefroy is a great sense of fronting isn t it well that s right although on No actually the caliber of the this student is on the run our set last for all is a night deal base so all I wanted in my life just to go from there well did you give up the idea of being a P.T. Teacher Yes I think as I said before seemed to be as if it was more the running on the sport and the outdoor passion so if you could get actual which I m also very a people passionate love to talk to people and different things like that but that was was the main thing so the running was actually I sometimes see that I ve never had a job it s actually I ve been a paid runner I couldn t. All my life really you know I just love my job so much back and switch off and then do my running so you ve got one actually compensates for the other because if you think about it you never ever stiff after a race because the next easy you walk around your delivery and you walk the race off so it keeps you fit I think was a mole in it that for everybody Willie s Yes and you may you wife Helen who s from chest to through the role model as well just tell me about if you can wear what is on offer really down to earth pass and always look after anybody so I was actually helping train new entrants. And the idea is that most people would just maybe send them on the way with a heavy bag but I didn t do that I would actually help the passion train them slowly so they got the better training and then see my future wife she actually went into a different part of the business and then she worked her way out to pasture nail but when I met her a few years after that she says I really didn t like the heavy bags that you gave me so I think she s got a role in back now. And they re all parallels between you and Helen in the sporting field that s right because you ve got remember back in 19676 or 74 when I was running in school and places a lot I was actually running sponsored walks when a penny a mile was a lot of money and I used to say I can run the sponsored walk the 20 mile sponsored walk known Stolpe so people would put down to pee and I actually still have every sponsor was called and signed now the thing is people used to look at me running in shorts because you only played you only had shorts on when you played football and things like that properly so I was a bit of like a freak if you like now the saying is I didn t know what this time Helen was actually living years old was representing Wales swimming and her mum took a job as a cleaner in the chest a bath so that she could train before school and well Helen I didn t know until just a little min ago was when I asked she used to go to school with the stick because she trained so hard that what she taught me because there was no code in her here was actually green so she got kind of not picked on but it was like a bit of a freaky thing and we ve both come together just like not so it just shows us. And children together yes that s right yes Gemma and Rianne they have twins but they actually live in LA but now they ve moved out of the house and it s a little light and definitely no getting back in. And you believe you ve been doing the same route for 37 yesterday actually talk a little bit about how long is your race well my route roughly if you go to every single house is roughly based about just over 9 miles they see that s a proper distance in Walk us never actually measured it myself and how long does it take you on average to deliver on that race normally when there was one delivery it would take about just over about 3 and a half hours maybe to 3 hours 20 again depending on the meal because you don t go to every house every day. And what about counting the backyard upon a sink in the back heaven yes it will make you may have seen many years ago they started to put these boxes on the end of the street and that was an invention from France and what it is it s because when you had Sky Magazine so you had the electric water and rates bills council tax where ever quarterly the banks were really really heavy or some people didn t even bother they like to just carry 2 bags and carry on but what I said to my bosses is I would like a box on every street so I could actually walk down one side and out the other and you re you can keep a good piece going on and it s it s it s preserved you re back from of never had any back problems to this day wise man. How many properties on your route roughly about 356 Niland essayed and you ve been on the same routes said the nearly 40 years how many people DO YOU LIVE IN see that you know and yet you know well I actually knew everybody on my round and the strangest thing is that makes me feel a bit old although if you saw me you wouldn t think I was that age is that the children that the people I delivered to their children are now dropping off their children to the moment of child mind and they are flabbergasted seeing children you haven t changed I. I remember when I was a little girl not fit for a G. You know and they say 57 and the law says I was talking to young postman that s just come in and a police spokesman just joined Royal Mail when I told him I was started work because everybody jokes about to insist as I sit 19th. 20 years before I was born. But I think oh my goodness how much feel like 200. But it s really funny touching me you really don t realize well we re going to put a picture of you on my Facebook page. So my listeners can actually see you almost they can see exactly what you like and and you know explaining what you re explaining to us about yourself as well let s just take a break here for some music but afterwards I d like to talk about the highs and the lows of your career We ll talk about that s a little bit more in a few moments time and let my gram s Arlington. a song it. Here until 1 o clock tonight 8 slain my grandparents and talking to post John Noble who speed delivering to the same house is a molester for nearly 40 years and I have to say normally at this time not some Clinton thinking you would be in bed but I believe you re on holiday this week is all right well I ve actually got the next 4 days off but although I like to go to bed because obviously if you re wrong you re working and then I m training as well I running sleep is a very very important and I never ever bum the candle at both sayings and I go to bed I wouldn t see any but I because I actually read but rest is very important for the job on my lifestyle is very self I would say is discipline but you wouldn t think it is but I always manage to fit my running in with my job and I m never ever tired that s fantastic it really is so you must have had some weird and wonderful experiences over the years are there any that you can tell me about Well certainly as a city and one of the highlights similar start with open doors but in the good old days in 1976 I used to deliver to law farms and you were probably the only passion that they saw because it specially when it was alarming time and things that they say there was no more bio phones there was nothing but they would sort of wanted to know what was happening in the towel and so you would light the local newspaper now you had to go in for breakfast now I didn t want to go in because the thing is I m a runner and very soon but the mine who does it that we cast a me he likes his BR. Exist but the only problem is there s about 4 or 5 different breakfasts and even if you don t have meal you had to go in so this Dr Drew passed this farm and I thought well I m not going in because it s all right I m going to miss it that s all right got to the next farm on the farm road followed me down and he says you ve got combine all your bread this is waiting for you and these were actually farm brick sissies that were the portage was like you did apply to it was crazy and I m thinking I would just like a couple of Krispies of fluff and I don t need this on the top that the sea was like the slates slabs like a door and I m thinking go in need a pix for the do it and as a say don t unless there s some of the funny things that happens is on Valentine s Day especially if it s a weekend you ve got a bag full of these all cheap cards your bank smells a talcum powder your hands are covered in lipstick and of course the thing is with these musical cards as you walk you re setting all these cards off so you re desperate to get them through the door because they re going off all the time say like a sort of 6 o clock in the morning in the good old days used to deliver readily you know like an ice cream van coming down there. So this little lots agree memories and I know that I have to ask you how does the start of things changed over the years I m fond of thinking Christmas cards you know us again a little pleased to sing Christmas called the house that because now to the US Well the big I think the 2 things here is one so many people have cars so it s easier seemed to be visiting people more on the other thing is the young children today the more bio foreign and when I give some talks because I do talks for the W.R.I. I see that every child now this born has a. On its crust ready for a more bio form to be fitted into it because it s so sod and like to see you can send them on whole itty we just noticed that you knew the soundman ache poor Scots they ve they ve finished in November but absolute silence any shutting down Sure shit people can take selfies and send it round the world just like not so yes there is a big decline now in the Christmas cards and everything which is sad and they always see the older you get you back in the good ole days and they where there were tremendous days and that s what s going to keep me going for the future you can t change progress but it s just Seuss not the way well some opposed to slow down but Chas has. Increased will sent me on the practice site intonate nets are still on summer holidays everybody goes in the hole at the end they don t buy anything new they do one now a days they are hitting the button while they re on the beach and this is the good thing with me you re away for 2 weeks holiday I make sure that all your mail is delivered correctly because I ve got this system on my record and that s why I ll never ever leave it because I see to my customers I am only one percent I am bring in the mill if you can give me 99 percent off I can get rid of Saddam a support and it s a piano thank you very much a not so I do and I don t get any sort of like cups of tea or any extras for a rental of by just can do my job and I love it and they love it too no less for you that I have with you know as a say the only regret I heard of is when I was actually. Crude Oil me leave and told me to drive on that date I was only 1718 maybe when a possum a taste busy I jumped in the bun said thank you very much to the Royal Mail instructor because they have their own driving instructors and off I went straight up. When a woman to tell my mom I m a driver now I just wish I had given the mana box a chocolate and to say thank you but of course that s gone but in everything I do I always go the extra mile now and help people and it s much better but that Sunni little Right the house but that s so right one of the things we often hear about us with post is delivering whether adults ever get bitten by a dog right when I train people what I actually taught them was you never ever put your sons through the door even if that passion he still goes and they ve never had a dog because the thing is they could have somebody visiting and you could lose your fingers now we re told even if there s a dog in the street you do not go down but I ve been on the run for so long you your You ve always got be cautious because you never have a new coming to morrow or round the next corner but I knew where I could actually go into somebody s sports bopping very lucky on just one of the highlights I ll tell you many many years ago I delivered to Buckminster rude in Leicester I don t know if you knew it but it s quite a white druid now many years ago when the invented the wheelie bins the bin name would come down and they would take you been out nude bring it back now I was on the other site stop Buckminster rude that was this little dog that these been men were running in and out shaken the bins Rocklin it but that dog was one to get across the road at me and I shouted across the lady I told you there s something about postman yet they were wheeling bins over this nearly knocking this little dog down but it wanted me there when worried about it soon after the bit so it s usually the best caution is if you see a dog run. You also have an incredible attendance record I believe Tell me about the days you ve had all 5 of the S. Well it s scary now because I think I ll drop that more after seeing this stuff is it out but know what it is and as a see I ve only had I ll be able be 42 years in orcas and I ve only had 5 days off now I think that I don t I m not I don t live in a moth balls and just keep myself very good because when I used to do moderate things I used to train well I still train every single day but I m outta nowhere there s NEVER thing but I think what keeps me going is just I ve got the passion Knology because I eat chocolate I do I don t sort of keep myself well I don t drink or smoke and I ve never drunk or small cannot the strange thing for a Scotsman but the thing is of self never never never had anything special I think just being happy is the lovely thing and it s nice to look back now because when I go into schools and I give talks to children I see the best thing in the world is your health if you can get to my age and sort of still be happy and healthy and look back on a happy and healthy life that does me and does that s me summed up in one word no subsidy true joy and it really is and I believe I said this rush the beginning you ve never failed to deliver a pulse that s right well the lovely thing is as I said to you My job is for ever you do and it really you are working me hard now because the thing is the intimate that they re on school holidays that top and that tell thing well the lovely thing is I ve said all this and sort of like a system we are I was actually my partner because we come in vans was off one week and this will give you an example as we re driving down total in route which is. Next But Minister I m so see an already that your car you ve gone to the radio station so I ve already been to speed at this and the city drop you live at number 37 I ve already said drop this number said Number 22 and the guy school in question does just put it in the Portuguese No and that s fine now at the end of this round we ve delivered maybe 43 packages and this month on guns is junk and I just say something to you we haven t delivered one to the right address the tall one says no but they ve all gone don t worry about it and that is a lovely lovely system because now with parcels I want people to actually get their parcels now just one last little bit as wail on the side many many years ago this is going right back to when Sky 1st came out and you got the Sky card I was delivering on Christmas Eve and it was snowing it was a terrible day and we were out in these days about half past 6 on 4 happened was this man who opened the door and he had 3 small children and he had a red card in the sun and he said listen I ve just missed the driver and it s a special delivery on the trouble is I know what it is it s my Sky card for the children and I sit right don t worry about it you ll get it because his wife had gone to work and there was no way he could get all the way into Campbell street and Lester to collect it so I said Don t worry your kids will Miss Scully I ll go and get it so I walked all the way back in the sky cart and my boss who actually lives on Group B. Rude his staff were more he turned around and said What are you doing back at 12 o clock in the office if a but he s going home assemble this money the sky car he says Joe and good enjoy Christmas I ll make sure to get it well done and not just sums me up at least that s can be the chill they really really is thank you very much indeed for joining me on the program SNOW Well I d just like to see it until all your listeners are.
