Ron Klain, departing chief of staff, praises Joe Biden's abilities as a father. We're going to be looking at that in a moment, where Biden's laptop revelations are abound, lost in euphemistic language. Join us for the first 10 minutes while we're having a bit of a laugh here on YouTube, but once we click over to Rumble, the home of free speech, that's what they're calling it, and certainly that's the reason we're there, so we can talk about the machinations of centralised power, the consent and consensus of the mainstream media, and the inability for counter-narratives to simultaneously exist and be discussed in an adult and empirical way in a climate where centralized corporate interests abide and govern. In unrelated news, in our item, here's the effing news about Bill Gates. This guy has got Nancy Pelosi-like investments. Why do I keep thinking that Nancy Pelosi and Paul Pelosi talk about investments? It's not how it works, is it? They lay there in grim cadaverous silence in that bed, glancing up, making sure that the house is secured. No one's on the way in! Before we get to that though, there's a time for sentiment, though. While you may not be able to afford energy, while you may be quaking under the weight of unpayable energy bills, true emotion is reserved for the expression of the changing of the guard within the White House. And let me know in the comments what you think of that! and who you think is a good father. Let me know who the second biggest funder of the WHO is, let me tell me in the WHO or who you doth protest too much? in the chat. Let me tell you what I know about the WHO, and what I think about that? and what you d like to know about it. I dm sure there's something you'd like to see in the next episode of You Awakened Wonderings. -Timestamps: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) 9) 10) 11) 12) 13) 14) 15) 16) 17) 18) 19) 20) 21) 22) 23) 24) 25) 26) 27) 28)
00:00:39.000Join us for the first 10 minutes while we're having a bit of a laugh here on YouTube, but once we click over onto Rumble, the home of free speech, that's what they're calling it, and certainly that's the reason we're there, so we can talk about the machinations of centralised power, the consent and consensus of the mainstream media in conveying narratives only that keep you, me, all of us in the dark, the inability for counter-narratives to simultaneously exist and be discussed Sensibly in an adult and empirical way in a climate where centralized corporate interests abide and govern.
00:01:10.000We're going to be talking about the Wuhan lab leak with a fantastic guest, Jimmy Tobias from The Intercept, talking about all sorts of stuff which couldn't be conveyed on YouTube because as you know, YouTube's policy is set by the WHO.
00:01:23.000The WHO is funded, number two funders, Let me know in the chat.
00:02:08.000Before we get into that though, there's a time for sentiment.
00:02:11.000While you may not be able to afford energy, while you may be quaking under the weight of unpayable energy bills, true emotion is reserved for the expression of the changing of the guard within the White House.
00:02:24.000One plutocrat leaves, another plutocrat comes.
00:02:28.000Let's have a look at Rob Klain's departure speech.
00:02:32.000I learned everything I know about how to be a good father from Joe Biden.
00:02:36.000He is the best father I know and the best role model I know.
00:02:42.000And along the way, he's taught me a thing or two about politics and policy as well.
00:02:45.000He's learned everything I know about how to be a good father.
00:04:12.000If you think, oh, I don't want this cowardly lion sobbing sod as the chief of staff in the White House, look at who they've gone from one extreme to the other.
00:04:42.000He seems like a cheery chap who, of course, has made a $440 million fortune, by coincidence, from the health industry, from questionable health care firms.
00:04:52.000Might be the reason why the hospitals are overwhelmed.
00:04:54.000Could have something to do with the fraud that's being committed.
00:05:08.000Just to clarify, while we're still on YouTube, in other news, have a look at the headline that announces that Hunter Biden's laptop Has Hunter Biden's legal team went on the offensive Wednesday, demanding state and federal investigations into the dissemination of his personal material purportedly to be from his laptop.
00:05:29.000So this is a case like he's already said, he's always said, Oh, it might be my laptop.
00:06:23.000I'm speaking now just as a stand-up comedian that his practice here is like in creating a scenario where he normalizes it and domesticize it.
00:07:14.000I once watched a clip where, when it was Clinton-Hillary versus Trump, they sort of asked them, and it was actually sort of heartwarming a bit, to say a nice thing about one another.
00:07:32.000Don't you want to see a little bit of humanity?
00:07:34.000When you're caught up in the spectacle of contemporary politics, even though it is very theatrical and at points emotional, what it feels to me most of all is spiritually bereft.
00:07:44.000The hypocrisy and corruption, to me, point to a lack of real values.
00:07:48.000That's why it's so alienating for me and so encouraging when you speak to someone like Christian Smalls, the emergent Amazon union leader, who is talking about politics from the perspective of a
00:07:59.000felt experience, someone that's working at a factory in a zero contract job and has become a union
00:08:05.000leader. We need a different type of politics, that's what I would say, and I reckon whether you
00:08:09.000like Trump or don't like him, the efficacy of his rhetoric is an indication that what we're
00:08:13.000missing is the emotional timbre, the ability of human beings to connect one another in an
00:08:18.000increasingly atomised world built on data, biometrics, control, surveillance, digital ID, total lack
00:08:26.000Let me know in the chat, let me know in the comments.
00:08:27.000I think you're right about the humanity, and I think you're right about what you said about Ron Klain before, is that breakdown is like a moment that happens to politicians when they usually lose elections or quit their jobs, and it's that pent-up Essentially, having to lie about a system that is extremely broken, and even in the lie of saying, you know, I've left you in good hands with the next Chief of Staff, he knows that the next Chief of Staff has made 440 million dollars off fraudulent healthcare companies.
00:08:56.000Just one last lie, then on to my crying!
00:08:59.000Then I'm out, then I'm getting on my boat!
00:09:02.000With mortgage lobbying money and presumably some sort of state salary paid for by your tax dollars.
00:09:06.000And in a way, these are not indictments of any individuals.
00:09:10.000But when you have a system built on the kind of values that it is, you recognize that the individual character is less and less relevant.
00:09:19.000That's something that was made clear to me by Yanis Varoufakis when he was talking about the EU after his party, Syriza, briefly looked like they could bring about radical social change in Greece.
00:09:27.000Then they met with the EU and it's like, you ain't doing nothing.
00:09:30.000You're paying them banks back Baby, this is after the 2008 crisis caused by all those subprime mortgages, of course, by coincidence there.
00:09:38.000And he said that even the most senior figures within the EU could only act in accordance with their role.
00:09:44.000So the system itself limits any potential for radicalism or change, or in another way, any possibility of democracy.
00:09:53.000You know that you would like to see money taken out of politics.
00:09:56.000You know that you'd like to see lobbying ended.
00:09:58.000You know that you want Congress people that don't own stocks and shares in the companies that they regulate.
00:10:03.000You know you want meaningful democracy where your vote influences the actions and expenditure in your community.
00:10:09.000You know that you want to have a spiritual connection to your country, to your community, to yourself.
00:10:15.000That what you don't want to see is an increase in centralised power.
00:10:19.000We've got a fantastic story coming up for you.
00:10:21.000Will it be later this week or will it be next week, do you reckon?
00:10:23.000I'm talking about Ukraine. Not only are they testing weapons in Ukraine, but
00:10:26.000they're looking at pushing CBDC, centralised banking digital currencies. But beyond
00:10:31.000that, it seems that in its post-war state, which people are already referring to in the
00:10:35.000reconstruction, you've seen Zelensky talking about BlackRock and JP Morgan. They're going to be
00:10:40.000piloting, this is according to our latest data, and you can look this up for yourselves,
00:10:49.000So the Ukraine, after everything, is going to be a kind of piloting ground for all sorts of globalist techniques.
00:10:56.000Now, at the moment, we make no claim that there are centralized cadre of powerful individuals orchestrating all of this.
00:11:03.000But certainly the technology and infrastructure is being introduced to a degree that if ever there were such a cadre, we'd be in serious trouble.
00:11:11.000And I know some of you think that the cadre is already there.
00:11:14.000I think they've talked about Ukraine becoming 100% digital.
00:12:35.000Firstly... Biden said I think one of his pledges when he came in was he was going to cut the prison population in half and I'm almost fairly sure that it's gone up.
00:12:43.000What we're going to do is cut them down the middle.
00:13:09.000In Massachusetts, Democrats have a bold new proposal for prisoners.
00:13:13.000Go on, donate your organs or bone marrow and get as little as a couple of months off your sentence.
00:13:19.000I don't know, isn't that already a Twilight Zone episode where you sort of go to Oh my God, ever since I've had this new heart, I'm experiencing terrible fluctuations.
00:13:29.000I'm afraid we accidentally darn gave you a murderer's heart.
00:13:34.000He's obviously not getting a couple of months off his sentence for murdering.
00:14:11.000I think, I don't know what generates those kind of reprehensible notions, but when human life itself becomes a commodity, when everything is information, when you are little more than data points, when they are working on technology that will mean that you can be nudged and manipulated into behaviours that are favourable to the interests of the state, then all bets are off.
00:15:12.000How would you be invested? I mean, what would it achieve?
00:15:15.000Where could you ever make a profit? Exactly. How could you ever make a profit
00:15:18.000by giving the World Health Organization a bunch of money?
00:15:22.000I mean, all right, a little while later, they did try to globally mandate a product that Bill Gates
00:15:26.000had also invested in. Oh, I see what you're doing. You're taking one fact from there and a fact from
00:15:31.000there and putting them together. You conspiracy theorists, you are all the same, aren't you?
00:15:36.000Why don't you just sit down like an obedient little prisoner of the state and devour your mainstream media soup, fill your mind with numb non-entity mishap rubbish, sit still and be quiet, or you could watch this.
00:15:56.000Thanks for continuing to watch our show.
00:15:58.000We go from one controversial, potentially conspiratorial story underwritten with hard facts, to another story where facts are continually denied and thrown shade upon in order, I think, to control particular narratives or, more specifically, counter-narratives.
00:16:16.000Even... There's one person linking these two stories as well.
00:16:18.000There's one guy, one little guy, who stands astride these tales like a colossus.
00:16:24.000But now to bring us this story in new and vivid light is Jimmy Tobias, an investigative journalist, like me, from The Nation and Intercept.
00:16:34.000Jimmy famously won a lawsuit against the NIH, revealing secret emails between Fauci and other scientists discussing the Wuhan lab leak theory.
00:16:47.000Jimmy, real early on, prior to the public discourse being, in my opinion, heavily directed towards the natural origin theory, there were emails exchanged between Fauci, that dude from the WHO called FARA, Yeah, him.
00:17:03.000And representatives of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, a charity by the way, they were exchanging emails about potential origins of the coronavirus pandemic.
00:17:15.000Tell me, what were your objectives when writing your recent article, mate?
00:17:21.000Yeah, well, you know, I sued the NIH to obtain these records and, you know, they were pretty eye-opening, newsworthy, I thought.
00:17:28.000And in writing this article, we were really just trying to lay them out in the context in which they were written so people could see what some of the most important and influential people who were, you know, directing the pandemic response were saying about the origins of the virus in the very early days of the outbreak.
00:17:45.000What conclusions have you drawn or what in particular did you find interesting?
00:17:50.000What in particular do you think was at odds with the broadly conveyed public message?
00:17:56.000Well, I mean, the documents show that Dr. Fauci in early 2020 was alerted to concerns, you know, among some of the world's top virologists that the virus looked potentially engineered.
00:18:08.000And what followed was a series of confidential calls and emails between Dr. Fauci, NIH Director Francis Collins, Patrick Vallance, who is the chief science advisor to the UK government, and a group of other prominent scientists, discussing the virus's origins.
00:18:24.000And early on, some of the scientists on these calls and emails really couldn't figure out how this virus was produced in nature, given some of its unusual features.
00:18:33.000They thought it may have come from a lab.
00:18:35.000Other people on these calls and emails disagreed and thought it looked like it came from nature.
00:18:39.000These deliberations went on for more than a week, pretty early in the discussions.
00:18:44.000They sort of discarded the idea that it was engineered and instead focused on an idea that it was sort of, um, accidentally created and released from a lab, um, via this, this type of laboratory process called serial, um, yes, serial passage experiments.
00:19:01.000And so during this time, they also started writing up drafts So these conversations started on January 31st.
00:19:06.000proximal origin paper, one of the best read papers in science history. Um, and that paper
00:19:11.000ultimately found that, that the, the virus came from nature.
00:19:16.000Um, so these, these conversations started on January 31st by February 8th, one of the
00:19:20.000scientists involved, um, Christian Anderson of scripts described the focus of the group's work
00:19:27.000as an effort to quote, disprove any type of lab theory. But even after all this debate,
00:19:32.000they still couldn't come down You know, they couldn't say it was a lab origin.
00:19:36.000They couldn't say it was a natural origin.
00:19:38.000I mean, they weren't ready to publish.
00:19:40.000And then somehow between February 8th and early March, they overcame this uncertainty and published this proximal origin paper that came down very, very strongly on a natural origin site.
00:19:51.000Documents don't really show how they overcame their uncertainty, how they went from, you know, this looks engineered, this looks like it could have been an accidental lab leak, to, you know, the proximal origin conclusion, which was they said they don't believe any type of, you know, lab-based scenario is plausible.
00:20:06.000So that's sort of, in sum, what these documents show, this conversation, this very heated, anxious, confidential conversation in January and February 2020.
00:20:16.000One of the participants in those conversations was Peter Daszak from the EcoHealth Alliance, who was involved in NIH-funded research in the Wuhan lab at that time.
00:20:28.000Obviously, there's no evidence to suggest that there's any corollary between those pieces of information, but given the natural origin theories preeminent and the lack of public contemplation, at least for the potential of a lab leak.
00:20:43.000It does seem that that's the very essence of a narrativised approach to data that could have perhaps been more equivocally presented.
00:20:52.000And it's difficult not to deduce that the reason that the information wasn't presented in a more balanced manner is because they would prefer that, broadly speaking, the public favoured Natural origin because of the lack of obvious culpability from the people in the field of pharmacological research.
00:21:09.000Does that seem like a reasonable set of assumptions, mate?
00:21:14.000Well, actually, Peter Daszak was not a participant in these conversations, but, you know, I think when I wrote this article, I interviewed a variety of, you know, prominent experts and scientists.
00:21:26.000Some of them said, you know, this is just science at work.
00:21:29.000They had a conclusion, they collected data, they published this paper once they came to a conclusion, you know.
00:21:53.000And these documents I got don't really show exactly how they overcame their conclusions.
00:22:00.000They're not a full view of what went on here.
00:22:02.000And so I think they're definitely You know, more questions that need to be asked, whether that's from Congress, who's now investigating this issue, or other scientists.
00:22:11.000But, you know, the documents certainly raise the kind of questions that you're bringing up, like how did they get from A to B, especially given some of the unusual features of the virus that they were so deeply concerned about early on in these conversations.
00:22:25.000Additionally, it was obviously very difficult for you to gain access to this material.
00:22:31.000Similarly, that suggests that there is a kind of clandestine hue to this data.
00:22:39.000At very least, it seems to suggest that there ought be more transparency, but in spite of my error there in suggesting that Peter Daszak and the EcoHealth Alliance were involved in that particular email chain, there's some Evidence I understand of, if not collusion, communication between the NIH EcoHealth Alliance and the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
00:23:02.000That, along with the amplification of the natural origin theory, when there isn't, as I understand it, Conclusive evidence that that is the case, even on the basis of these emails, suggests that there is, at very least, a preference for, and even in the jump between, a conversation that is multifaceted and multivalent to a unilateral and global response.
00:23:31.000I suppose, like, you know, when I'm trying to look at this from the most, what do I want
00:23:35.000to say, compassionate perspective, I think what it is, is they were deeply concerned
00:23:39.000about this pandemic. And they knew that there would have to be a unified response due to
00:23:43.000the nature of the pandemic. And they couldn't deal with the complication and confusion and
00:23:48.000the potential hit that their credibility would take if people were simultaneously digesting
00:23:52.000the idea that this was somehow involved human ineptitude.
00:23:57.000And we got a timeline, man, for the stuff that went on in Wuhan. I'm sure you're well
00:24:00.000familiar with that. Installing air conditioning units, ripping them out again, all sorts
00:24:06.000of weird stuff going on. I suppose, mate, because, you know, I gosh, I hope it's not just cynicism
00:24:13.000I feel that I have a tendency at least to direct people towards a condemnatory outlook of the players in establishing this narrative.
00:24:23.000And I guess it seems to me that you're much more kind of, I don't know, balanced and like, you know, like you don't leap to those kinds of conclusions, huh?
00:24:31.000Well, you know, I'm interested in the documents.
00:24:33.000I'm interested in what else is out there.
00:24:35.000I think there definitely should be a continuing investigation among scientists and representatives of the public into what went on, you know, here and in relation to the origin.
00:24:47.000I don't think, you know, I don't think there's dispositive evidence on one side or the other.
00:24:51.000And so, you know, just yesterday, the Congress launched an investigation to this question.
00:24:56.000It was very, I thought it was very sober.
00:24:58.000and and balance sort of sort of investigation but they're looking at these questions and no one i don't think anyone um you know has conclusive evidence but but you know one of the things that stands out for me from these emails is these some of the the things they saw in the virus um in his genome genome. You know, several of the scientists early on were
00:25:18.000puzzled by the presence in the virus's genome of a furin cleavage site, which is a feature
00:25:23.000that has not been found in other SARS related coronaviruses. And this plays a role, this furin
00:25:28.000cleavage site plays a role, an important role in helping the virus infect human airways.
00:25:33.000And these guys, some of these guys were just so bothered by its presence. You know, one
00:25:36.000guy was like, I just don't see how this, you know, I can't figure out how this happens in
00:26:01.000From the White House podium, you know, Dr. Collins wrote a blog post about it, you know, it was all over the news.
00:26:07.000And that paper was very, you know, it came down very strongly on the natural origin side of this debate, and it emerged from these discussions.
00:26:24.000Because it's really not clear, and I think that outstanding question is one of the things that leads people to ask, like, what was going on here, you know?
00:26:32.000And as for the records themselves, yeah, I mean, it took a year-long lawsuit to get these documents, more than a year, and They were heavily so, I mean, a lot of people were trying to get them.
00:26:44.000NIH let them read the documents and take notes, but they couldn't keep full copies.
00:26:49.000So it wasn't until, you know, NIH kind of caved to our lawsuit that these were really released fully and publicly.
00:26:55.000And I do think, you know, that lack of transparency is concerning, and you see that in a lot of government agencies, but On a matter that's so important to the public, the fact that they dragged their feet like this is definitely cause for concern.
00:27:09.000And I've heard that from people in Congress and elsewhere.
00:27:11.000Yeah, a lack of transparency, dragging their feet and unwillingness to reveal the information.
00:27:18.000Ongoing censorship of any counter narrative, particularly in the early days of the pandemic.
00:27:24.000Anybody talking about the potential of a lab leak theory was at risk of being censored and kicked off social media platforms.
00:27:32.000And as you point out, Jimmy, the sudden tangential A leap from genuine what you say sound like sort of professional curiosity and wow how has this occurred this ability to attack the airwaves we've never seen that nature to no no that's uh that's definitely uh natural origin a sudden truncating of inquiry occurred in conjunction with global censorship and a heavy redacting and control of these emails which you have tenaciously acquired and
00:28:03.000I suppose we're from different disciplines and backgrounds, and I suppose collectively we have an obligation to lean into our particular skill sets.
00:28:11.000Yours seems to be the unbiased analysis of various data, and mine is the emotional, incendiary rousing of suspicion.
00:28:20.000Gareth, what do you want to bring to this conversation?
00:28:23.000Yeah, maybe a balance between the two.
00:28:24.000No, I just think it's really interesting what Jimmy's saying, that there are extremely prominent scientists that can't explain what they want us to think.
00:28:33.000So this idea at the time that there's simply no way that it could have been leaked from a lab, that it's a natural origin, and yet there are prominent scientists.
00:28:41.000And it didn't seem at the time like those views were, you know, allowed to be discussed.
00:28:47.000And it kind of seems like something that's happened a lot over the last few years in terms of experts in their fields being marginalised and, you know, as we're told, kind of are conspiracy theorists.
00:28:59.000But I think expertise not being allowed to kind of be present and spoken about doesn't seem like a great idea.
00:29:10.000Yeah well I'll say you know one of the one of the scientists I spoke to for this story who is a computational virologist at a university around Philadelphia and you know he's sort of agnostic on the lab leak or natural origin question you know he said looking at these documents it started out as this fairly careful discussion where they're airing out these anomalies and and you know they say multiple times we don't have the data to resolve where this thing came from but at some point you know he says He thought that, you know, there was such strong pressure that they went from, let's just wait for more data to let's publish something, you know, that has a very strong opinion favoring one explanation over the other without acquiring your data.
00:29:48.000So I'm paraphrasing him and his question is why?
00:29:52.000And, you know, if I, if these folks had talked to me, I would have asked them some of these questions, you know.
00:29:56.000You know, neutrally, I just want to hear what they have to say about how they got from A to B on this very, very important paper.
00:30:04.000And, you know, there are other things going on too.
00:30:06.000You know, I mentioned in the article that before these calls and conversations really kicked off, Dr. Fauci went to his deputy to find out what kind of funding arrangements the NIH had established with institutions in China.
00:30:21.000And just last week, the inspector general of the Department of Health and Human Services
00:30:26.000released a pretty scathing report about failures of NIH oversight on some of the grants
00:30:31.000that went to the Wuhan Institute of Virology, which is a leading center of coronavirus research in China,
00:30:36.000in the city where this virus first emerged.
00:30:41.000And among the things that that report found, that inspector general report,
00:30:45.000was that for more than a year now, NIH and the EcoHealth Alliance,
00:30:52.000which was sort of a pass-through funding group that was doing work with the Wuhan Institute of Virology,
00:30:57.000they've been asking the Wuhan Institute to provide them lab notes and other data
00:31:02.000about their experiments that were going on there with federal funding.
00:31:09.000And so, this Inspector General report, you know, suggests that NIH consider banning the Institute from any, you know, future funds for research.
00:31:19.000But, you know, I think the fact that, you know, that Institute has been stonewalling the federal government is concerning, I think, to say.
00:31:27.000I think it's fair to say it's very concerning.
00:31:29.000And raises questions and has to do these documents, you know, they raise a lot of questions more than answering a particular question more than providing dispositive evidence.
00:31:38.000I think they raise questions, and people obviously can interpret these things differently and I welcome them to do so but I think there's more work to be done to investigate some of these questions and look into them further and I think that's completely reasonable to do.
00:31:54.000They missed deadlines, ignored protocols, a dog ate their homework.
00:31:59.000Let's have a look at that timeline again, if we could, just to take us on what I call a little meander through Wuhan and some of the more anomalous facts.
00:32:13.000So, in autumn 2019, the Wuhan Institute of Virology had a number of outstanding maintenance projects including environmental air disinfection system and hazardous waste treatment system.
00:32:23.000A notice of laboratory inspection was issued for September 2019.
00:32:27.000Shortly after in 2019, still September, the WIV, the Wuhan Institute, took their public virus database offline.
00:32:34.000Get that offline, it's about September 2019.
00:32:37.000The Lablin announced a contract competition to renovate their air conditioning system for approximately $660 million.
00:32:44.000Expensive is the World Cup of Air Conditioning.
00:32:47.000The announcement was later removed from the Chinese Ministry of Finance website.
00:32:51.000This, along with the inquiries that Fauci was making, sort of suggests that there was definite concern, both within the NIH and in the Wuhan Institute itself.
00:33:04.000Like it's an extraordinary... That's the issue.
00:33:06.000The issue isn't it with all of this is that when Fauci's questioned and is kind of so dogmatic about the origins of this and what it could be and what it couldn't be and I guess what a lot of people and Jimmy included are calling for is some transparency and discussion around this rather than as I say the kind of dogmatic approach to this is the only way it could have happened even though all this new evidence is coming to light.
00:33:41.000Well, Jimmy, what was it that made you start this inquiry in the first place?
00:33:45.000Why did you have this journalistic hunch in a profession now that's more determined by towing the line and keeping your mouth shut and being an establishment mouthpiece?
00:33:53.000Where do you get this intrepid spirit of inquiry from?
00:33:56.000And do you feel a bit pleased with yourself now that you've got it?
00:34:01.000Well, yeah, I'm really pleased we got these documents and it was a long fight and I have to give credit to my FOIA attorneys who worked for me on a pro bono basis.
00:34:13.000I mostly cover wildlife and conservation issues, really.
00:34:16.000And, you know, that's sort of what initially drew me to this topic, because, you know, obviously habitat degradation, wildlife trade issues are contributing to the rise of, you know, emergence, emerging infectious diseases around the world.
00:34:28.000And I also do a lot of FOIA requests and kind of probe federal environmental agencies, especially.
00:34:33.000And so in 2021, the journalist Jason Leopold is also a great FOIA reporter, obtained a really large batch of Dr. Fauci's emails, and they were heavily redacted.
00:34:42.000And so in reading those, I saw sort of some of these conversations, but they were all, you know, behind black redactions.
00:34:49.000And so I filed some of my own FOIA requests, sort of targeting some of the communications that were in that larger batch from Jason Leopold.
00:34:56.000I mean, what I got back were a bunch of documents, but they were very heavily redacted.
00:35:01.000And so we sued over the redactions and eventually NIH relented and released them, you know, last November, late last November, right before the Thanksgiving holiday.
00:35:15.000So, you know, we didn't even have a judge order them to release them.
00:35:19.000They actually did it according to my lawyers of their own accord, but it's sort of unclear why they did it then after dragging their feet for so long about these redactions.
00:35:30.000Jimmy, thank you so much for joining us and thank you for your intrepid, tenacious work in revealing this important information to a wider audience and for your rather charming interest in nature and natural habitat.
00:37:34.000I just thought, throw a question in there.
00:37:37.000People might like that, and if they do, why don't you watch our show Stay Connected, where me and Gareth show you the show behind the show, where we respond to your questions and inquiries, anything you want to know about how we compile this investigative great work.
00:37:50.000Mostly I can tell you now, it's me, I do all of the work.
00:37:53.000But if you want a deeper look at how it's done, if you want to know how it is that sometimes we suddenly stop broadcasting in the middle of the stream, That's because of Al's fault, isn't it?
00:38:02.000Al, one of the lads who works here, he suddenly just, he's off looking out the window eating a Cornish pasta, you don't press the right button, he don't know what he's doing, the poor sod, he's staring around the place.
00:38:11.000Just looking at wildlife, he's like Jimmy.
00:38:12.000He's like Jimmy, he might be, oh look, a kingfisher, oh no, the stream's stopped!
00:38:19.000Get the stream out there, is what I say.
00:38:21.000So you can see how we come up with this work.
00:38:22.000Also, we focus more on the emotional, mental health, spiritual aspects.
00:38:27.000You know, listen, we're going to have to sort our spirits out, aren't we, Gareth?
00:38:29.000If we're going to contend with an atrophying world full of the corrupt, governed by some of the most evil dominator cultural forces in history... Revolution.
00:39:31.000Also, you want to join up to our Stay Connected community on Locals where you get not only an additional show, you also get the joy, the glory of being the first to see my stand-up special that's coming Up soon.
00:39:46.000Let us know what guests you want to see in the chat because we'll bring them on to the show if possible if they're not crazy and you know some of your suggestions are crazy and I'll see you tomorrow and we can cultivate an inner light so that we can handle this together so we can find the compassion and power within us to handle the changes that are definitely going to have to be undertaken.
