The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guests： Carol Roth & Jeff Brown ｜ 6⧸16⧸22

00:00:00.000 On the podcast today, pretty interesting show. You have the accusations against Congresswoman

00:00:04.600 Lauren Boebert, which she is suing for, and you'll understand why. We have Carol Roth on

00:00:11.260 to talk about the economy. Mo Brooks is running for Senate in Alabama. He's in a runoff next week,

00:00:16.540 and we play one of the greatest audio clips in cable news history that Mo Brooks is a part of

00:00:22.580 and talk to him as well today. Jeff Brown joins us to talk about technology and everything going

00:00:27.620 on there, and we go through oil prices and the Biden administration's response to them

00:00:32.380 and what the Biden administration was saying and what they're saying today. Two very different

00:00:38.200 things. Here's the podcast. If you're one of the millions of Americans who suffer every day from

00:00:42.200 pain, please listen up. There is hope, and it comes in the form of relief factor. And every single day

00:00:48.800 I sit at this desk and I see another testimony of somebody else in the audience that has really had

00:00:54.600 a hard time with pain. I know. I was one of them. And you can get to a point to where you're about

00:00:59.440 to give up. Don't give up. Please try relief factor. It's not a drug, so you're not going to feel,

00:01:05.260 you know, hazy and everything else. And it's going to reduce your inflammation. And I know.

00:01:11.020 I don't take ibuprofen because it never works for me. I've even had the prescription 800 milligram

00:01:16.540 ibuprofen. For me, that's a joke. But relief factor works for me, and it's changed my life.

00:01:23.640 Please, don't get through your day just struggling all day through pain. Try relief factor now. Try

00:01:30.880 it for three weeks. This is the three-week quick start, $19.95. 70% of the people who try it go on

00:01:36.460 to order more. Why would you do that? Unless it was working. That's why I still take it today.

00:01:42.360 It's relieffactor.com. That's relieffactor.com.

00:01:46.400 Wow. Welcome to the program. If you just tuned in, you tuned in at exactly the right time

00:02:06.200 because you are about to learn something about Lauren Boebert that is shocking. Shocking.

00:02:14.900 This is coming from the very credible group, the American Muckrakers Pact, and they have 0.99

00:02:23.740 uncovered now. And they don't like doing it. Well, actually, they said they do this with

00:02:30.040 glee. But I'm sure what they meant to say was it's with a heavy heart they have to expose

00:02:36.220 Lauren Boebert that she was an unlicensed, unlicensed, mind you, paid escort and met 1.00

00:02:46.180 clients through sugareddaddymeat.com. And she was an escort for wealthy men. And I'll have

00:02:58.580 you know, in December 2019, Senator Cruz, quote, donated at least $136,250, end quote, to the

00:03:12.760 Boebert campaign to help her raise large, well, they say for her help in raising, yeah, you

00:03:20.200 know what I'm talking about. But they said it was just raising large sums of money during

00:03:26.280 trips Boebert made to Texas. She didn't disclose $70,500 donation made by Cruz's Federal Election

00:03:35.600 Commission filings. And it contradicted her filings. Then she went out and had an abortion in Grand 1.00

00:03:42.280 Junction, Colorado. Now, the timeline's all screwed up here. But pay no attention to the fact that what

00:03:49.980 they were just saying about her taking money from Ted Cruz has nothing to do with the abortions that 0.71

00:03:59.340 she apparently got because she was Ted Cruz's, I don't know, escort. But he she had an abortion and 0.64

00:04:08.860 probably killed Ted Cruz's son or daughter in an abortion in 2004 or five, even though the two

00:04:18.000 never had met in 2004 or 2005. But she was about 18 years old. And she was. She was working for

00:04:30.120 sugareddaddymeat.com. And you know what that happens. You know what happens there?

00:04:37.100 Sugareddaddymeat.com. Lauren Boebert. Just be careful, Glenn, because they did just start as a

00:04:42.200 new sponsor of the program. So I want to make sure you're careful on what you say about them.

00:04:46.340 Did they? Yeah, we have live spots. Okay, thank you for that. I appreciate that. Well, now she does say,

00:04:54.300 I'm going to sue the hell out of you because none of this is true. But that's exactly what you would

00:05:01.520 expect a hooker to say, isn't it? It is. Now listen to this. It really is. Yeah. Now listen to this. 1.00

00:05:11.220 There's more. Not only we're looking at the small stuff here. Not only was she a hooker, I'm sorry,

00:05:19.080 an escort. Not only has she taken illegal money from Ted Cruz, not only has she had two abortions, 1.00

00:05:26.900 but are you ready? She was also a stripper. Oh, and she and her husband had a meth drug problem

00:05:37.720 as well. So they're both meth heads. Gosh, those aren't her real teeth. Now, again, I'm still focused

00:05:48.260 on the small stuff because her husband also has a consulting contract for an oil and gas company

00:05:58.900 for four hundred and sixty thousand dollars a year, but has zero consulting experience.

00:06:08.100 Kind of like Hunter Biden. It's called proof. That's that's called right there. That's slam the door,

00:06:13.660 you know, hit the the gavel stroke comes down and the case is over. That's what that is.

00:06:21.100 Yeah. When you know, when her husband is giving advice to an oil and gas company,

00:06:26.580 you immediately know that's a meth head right there. He's he's just a meth head,

00:06:31.980 which is much worse than a crackhead like Joe Biden's son, where we actually have the evidence

00:06:39.040 and the audio tapes of all of it. You know, she's she's married to a husband who is an oil

00:06:46.480 and gas guy. And holy cow. And they were doing meth. And that's all while she was stripping

00:06:54.600 somehow or another. Also, you know, being a payday.

00:07:00.000 Well, that's you could see exactly what she is. Shut him down. Yeah, they shut him down. 0.99

00:07:04.820 Shut you down. Because they didn't want you to get the truth out about Lauren Boebert.

00:07:08.420 That's the type of power she has, apparently. Absolutely incredible. You know, I think I might

00:07:14.060 sue, too. I think I think I might sue myself. And here you have an actual son of a president

00:07:21.360 who is actually doing virtually all of that and more and actually doing it. And we have actual

00:07:29.500 evidence. And yet they put all of that on Lauren, Lauren Boebert, who, you know, obviously.

00:07:36.980 Again, you guys are just focused on the little stuff, focused on the small stuff.

00:07:42.540 OK, you're thinking, you know, meth head oil and gas, no experience. She's a hooker. She's a stripper. 1.00

00:07:51.660 You know, she had a couple of abortions. But do you know that also she was driving an ATV in Moab

00:07:59.700 and had a serious wreck with her son in the in the back? And her sister-in-law was so seriously

00:08:07.240 injured that her sister-in-law had to be flown to a hospital via lifelight. But Boebert didn't report

00:08:14.940 the accident as required by Utah law. And then she actively worked to cover the accident up

00:08:22.900 two weeks before the primary election, including paying her sister-in-law off to remain silent

00:08:29.920 about the accident and the lifelight. Yeah. Yeah. That's who you that's Colorado. That's who you

00:08:37.360 that's who you have. She's a stripper, meth head, oil and gas, greedy killer sister almost 1.00

00:08:46.560 and have covering up with the lifelight. That's what you got right there.

00:08:51.080 That's interesting because doesn't she didn't she own her own business, too? I mean, just to do all 0.82

00:08:55.300 those things at once is pretty impressive. I mean, maybe this is the type of thing that should get

00:08:59.880 you elected to Congress. Just that type of multitasking. Finally, you are talking about

00:09:07.420 the real deal here. I guess we are. That's the way this works, apparently. I don't know, Pat. I feel

00:09:15.200 like can you just say anything you want? I understand there's a high bar when it comes to libel and all

00:09:21.340 these things, especially when it comes to public figures. But they're just make it seemingly making

00:09:26.760 crap up to smear an elected official. And I don't know, does this cross that line? It seems like

00:09:32.780 it might. Kind of seems like it to me. Yeah, it does seem that way. It seems like they like again,

00:09:37.780 they took everything from Hunter Biden and put it on Lauren Boebert.

00:09:42.040 Lauren Boebert didn't drop off her laptop with all of the evidence that she did all of these things

00:09:48.000 at a random computer store and then leave it there for months.

00:09:51.960 Yeah, but you are again missing that she used donor money to pay her taxes and restaurant rent, 1.00

00:10:00.060 and she still owes her employees back pay, and she is currently threatening them if they say a word. 1.00

00:10:07.880 Okay, so she's also an economic terrorist. 1.00

00:10:11.980 Oh, man. Yeah, she is. I mean, how could you even possibly?

00:10:16.000 No, you couldn't. Oh, I hope she sues the pants off of them. Can you? I've never heard such a 1.00

00:10:23.080 kitchen sink kind of case against somebody. Usually it's like they were. She's a hooker. And that's it. 1.00

00:10:30.700 This is. Yeah, she also she's she's very we have it on. We have it on good authority. She's also

00:10:37.340 an alien. And she also served as chancellor of Germany in 1936.

00:10:47.040 They really did come up with every single thing they could they could churn up here. I guess that

00:10:51.560 that shows that they they find her to be, you know, someone who is dangerous, right? That's someone who

00:10:56.540 they're afraid of. I don't know. I don't know why you would do something like that. They don't seem to

00:11:02.200 have a ton of evidence. I guess maybe in the in the in the trial. We'll we'll figure that out.

00:11:10.220 Well, I will tell you this.

00:11:13.680 Again, you guys will not focus on the real issue.

00:11:17.840 It's not that just it's not that just they were meth heads, but her husband.

00:11:24.660 Jason, also a drug dealer. Oh, wow. Okay. Wow. There's another new busy family. I just I'm more

00:11:33.400 impressed by how well they're able to keep all this stuff together.

00:11:36.820 They have a lot of irons in the fire, don't they?

00:11:40.700 Just the management skills alone are enough for her to be in Congress. 0.81

00:11:44.400 This is incredible.

00:11:45.320 Especially you have to remember they're doing meth to keep all of this going at the same time you're

00:11:53.180 dealing and doing meth. You're an incredible person. You are. You're worth every time you

00:11:59.560 might charge in bed because you're just you can do multiple things.

00:12:06.360 Okay, Pat. Thank you so much. Pat Gray Unleashed is the name of the podcast and you can get it

00:12:13.020 wherever you find your podcast.

00:12:19.960 You're listening to the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:12:39.900 Carol Roth, welcome to the program.

00:12:43.020 How are you, Carol?

00:12:45.360 Oh, you know, just watching the market implode and, you know, watching the lies come out of the

00:12:51.020 White House. So just kind of another day under building back better, Glenn. How about you?

00:12:56.420 I know. Oh, great. Let me ask you a question. I've taken money out of the stock market, but I also

00:13:03.520 have gotten burned before by taking it out and then, you know, missing the upside, et cetera, et cetera.

00:13:09.680 And my, my guy who, you know, watches over my investments, he's like, Glenn, Glenn, it's going

00:13:17.200 to come back. It's not. And I'm like, I know it will come back, but you know, I'm, I'm nearing 60.

00:13:24.000 So if it's back in 10 years, I'm going to start needing that money. Should you have any money? I took

00:13:32.020 about 50% out. Should you have any money in the market at this point? It have any idea what's

00:13:39.160 coming? Yeah. So, you know, obviously this is not financial advice. And I think that you did the

00:13:44.380 right thing by talking to your financial advisor, because obviously it makes a difference if you're

00:13:49.280 closer to retirement or if you're somebody who's younger and has the time to wait it out. The

00:13:53.880 reality is we don't know if I, if I knew I, and I had this crystal ball, I'd be in a yacht on the

00:13:58.660 Mediterranean and not on your program as much as I adore you, Glenn. But that's what I would be doing. 1.00

00:14:03.540 No, I know. I wouldn't have a program. So the reality is, you know, they show you over

00:14:13.100 long periods of time that the people who take money out of the market tend to miss the biggest

00:14:18.660 up days in the market. You know, in these bear market situations, there are these kind of bull

00:14:24.180 rallies that happen. And if you miss the 10 best days of the market over, you know, a 10 or 20 year

00:14:31.680 period, that ends up killing the returns that you get on your portfolio. So I do think, especially

00:14:39.900 if you have a longer time horizon, that you should not panic. You know, you never want to be the one

00:14:45.300 who's selling when the market is down. That's when you want to be buying, not that I'm saying to buy

00:14:50.060 today. But you should be also hedging your portfolio and maybe realigning it. And I think it's a good time

00:14:58.200 to maybe look at the types of investments you have in your portfolio. If you are looking at these

00:15:03.520 high flying growth companies with weak balance sheets, you know, that don't make any money to

00:15:08.940 those are the ones that are going to struggle if they have these rock solid balance sheets, they

00:15:13.440 generate tons of cash. They're in an industry that can pass price increases onto the consumer.

00:15:19.800 You know, those are the ones who are going to survive and they're ultimately going to thrive.

00:15:23.840 So, you know, that's the kind of thing you should be talking to your financial advisor about is maybe

00:15:28.020 repositioning the portfolio right now. So what's really crazy because of ESG,

00:15:33.420 right now would be the time, if I'm not mistaken, you know, Wall Street. But right now would be the

00:15:39.260 time that you would think you've got to get into oil and gas because they're going to make a killing.

00:15:45.480 They'll invest and they'll bring, you know, we'll start to really boom and they'll make a killing on

00:15:51.320 it. But that's not true anymore because the market is not free. Oil and gas, is that even smart to

00:15:59.180 do that now?

00:16:01.060 So it depends on your perspective. You know, I'm a follow the money kind of person. And obviously,

00:16:06.600 like you said, the ESG push, the green push, the decarbonization push is so entrenched. You know

00:16:13.820 that they're going to throw more money at that. And they've been keeping money from these sort of

00:16:18.280 traditional areas of investment. So the question you have to ask yourself, and again, I wish I could

00:16:23.820 tell you the answer. I can only tell you what to think about in terms of the question, is do you

00:16:28.520 think that we're going to see a reversal, of course? Because right now, part of the reason that

00:16:33.080 everything is so expensive is because we have had all of this capital being directed away from the

00:16:39.200 industry. And there's severe underinvestment in all types of fossil fuels and traditional energy

00:16:44.880 sources. So the play that you're going to have to go through in your mind is, do you think something

00:16:50.440 is going to change? Or, you know, eventually here we get some temporary relief, and then the green

00:16:56.300 people continue to march on and, you know, completely kill our dependence on fossil fuels.

00:17:02.260 What is frightening is that letter that came from Biden yesterday, where he said to the oil

00:17:07.400 companies, I will, I have emergency orders, where I will begin to direct this. This is what Hugo Chavez

00:17:15.100 did. And it was over for Venezuela. Okay, so let's go back, you know, into, you know, whatever it was

00:17:21.680 50, 60 years ago, Venezuela was the fourth wealthiest country in the world. And like you said, that their

00:17:31.320 powers that be said, we have wealth inequality, we need to hand this over to the government,

00:17:37.140 and we'll make sure that you are all rich. And they nationalized oil in a bunch of industries.

00:17:42.400 Do you know what the median net worth in Venezuela is today, Glenn?

00:17:49.160 God, I don't, I'm afraid. No, I don't.

00:17:52.540 It's zero. I am not making this up. This comes from the Credit Suisse report on world wealth,

00:17:57.960 the median net worth, they went from the fourth wealthiest country in the world to a median net worth,

00:18:03.820 not even an average, a median of zero. The midpoint of the country's net worth is zero,

00:18:10.360 because they nationalized the oil and gas industry and the wealth. So that is the trajectory they want

00:18:16.480 to take us down here.

00:18:18.360 So Carol, is it is it unreasonable to say, I mean, you know, Biden is lying to us about gas and oil and

00:18:25.460 ESG and all of that stuff? He's just out and out lying to us. Is it unreasonable to say that that's

00:18:33.440 the way you get people to own nothing by 2030?

00:18:38.580 I mean, it's certainly one huge element of it. I mean, just think of if we had, you know,

00:18:46.200 some retraction of our energy, where one day a week, we couldn't, you know, have enough energy

00:18:51.960 to power electricity or to get us to where we need to be. And we all had to move to four day work

00:18:58.160 weeks. Think of the productivity that we would lose. Think of how our GDP would shrink. Think of

00:19:04.780 the rolling consequences of that throughout the economy. And yeah, that's a really good way to

00:19:10.840 start killing the ownership of people. But Glenn, they have so many different ways they are trying

00:19:16.880 to attack you and make sure that you own nothing. That's just one of the tools in their pocket.

00:19:23.140 I will tell you, I'm up here at my ranch and I am surrounded. I live in a town of very, very small.

00:19:29.880 I mean, the next biggest town over is 5,000. And it is, it's all ranchers. I mean, it's all farmers

00:19:38.360 and regular people, uh, dairymen, uh, and they're all terrified. I mean, they can't buy fertilizer.

00:19:46.420 Uh, water is already at a premium. And now the state of Washington and the state of Idaho is

00:19:53.520 talking about taking down the dams, which would destroy the energy here. And it would destroy all

00:20:02.140 of the water. I live in a desert. Okay. It's a high mountain desert. A lot of farms and cattle are

00:20:09.040 here. And on top of that, they're also expressing to me fear that they'll even be able to keep their

00:20:14.520 land. I think these are real concerns and I hope the place that you're in is Galt's Gulch because

00:20:21.480 we've been looking for it for quite some time. Um, but the reality is that the wealthiest people

00:20:28.540 in the United States, you know, the Bill Gates is the Harvard hedge fund, they have all been buying

00:20:35.500 up not only land, but water rights. So it's something that we do need to keep a very close

00:20:42.100 eye on because the question is, you know, why do they think this is such a good investment? You know,

00:20:47.620 they're, they're looking for return on their investment. So what do they think is going to

00:20:52.480 happen with the prices that they're making investments in farmland and in water

00:20:58.480 rights? It's a, an area, you know, it's one of those, uh, I'll call it a dark grace one.

00:21:03.560 Cause obviously we've talked about it, but really not enough people are focused on it. Um, and you

00:21:09.240 know, to the extent that, you know, you've got this rationing of water on top of everything else.

00:21:14.580 I mean, I can't even imagine that scenario and the social unrest that comes with that.

00:21:19.060 So we have 30 year mortgage rates. They were last week, 5.5% this week. They're now at 6.28%

00:21:30.280 and the fed raised the rates yesterday. What is this going to mean?

00:21:36.360 I do think they came down a little bit intraday, but yeah, it's still very high. This is a very

00:21:42.360 challenging question. And the challenging question is because we have such a supply and demand imbalance

00:21:48.960 in the housing market, again, because of all the idiotic things that the powers that be have done

00:21:55.220 over the past couple of decades. So we have an undersupply of its estimated four to five plus

00:22:01.140 million houses. And that's what has supported, um, you know, these high prices and housing. Plus

00:22:07.460 you have all of these corporate buyers who are flush with cash were coming in and they are buying

00:22:12.840 up. Talk about, you know, you will own nothing. They are buying up housing. The thing that makes

00:22:17.140 people, um, you know, gain generational wealth and they're doing it with all cash. So they don't need

00:22:22.960 a mortgage. And sometimes they're not even looking, they're not even doing an inspection. So they're

00:22:27.260 getting, you know, very, very favorable, um, outcomes. So yeah, I mean, in terms of what happens

00:22:33.160 with the, the, the housing industry, the mortgage rates are going to keep, uh, first time buyers and

00:22:39.220 people who are just, you know, able to afford out, out of the market even further, you know,

00:22:43.960 they were already hurt because of the, the inflated asset bubble, you know, whether that

00:22:48.080 means we'll certainly see some cooling off. I don't think we're going to see like a 2008,

00:22:54.060 2009 type implosion. Cause we just don't have enough houses. And I don't think right now people are

00:23:00.160 over 11. The best of the Glenn Beck program. Jeff Brown. How are you, sir?

00:23:17.160 Jeff, are you there? I am. Good morning. Hey, uh, thank you so much for coming on. Uh, can we start

00:23:24.900 with, um, can we start with just this small little mini nuke that is being developed in,

00:23:30.420 uh, Idaho? Can you, do you know anything about it and is it real and could we actually get this off

00:23:37.660 the ground? Uh, yes, it's, um, it's very real. It's, uh, it's interesting research, uh, that's being

00:23:46.100 done up in, uh, in Idaho. Um, of course these smaller nuclear reactors, um, have been in development

00:23:54.420 for years, uh, much safer, not capable of a nuclear meltdown. Um, very promising, obviously

00:24:03.260 doesn't emit any, uh, have any carbon emissions, uh, is it produces energy, uh, wonderful solution

00:24:10.120 to many of the problems that, uh, we're experiencing, uh, today. Um, but it does have one big political

00:24:18.420 problem, uh, that I see, and that is the fuel that it uses. Of course, it still uses a radioactive

00:24:25.380 fuel. It's kind of a low grade enriched, uh, uranium, not quite the same as what's used for

00:24:32.600 nuclear fission reactors, but, um, probably the biggest problem that I see with something like

00:24:38.180 that isn't as much, um, uh, a technology issue, but one of a political issue. Uh, there will be

00:24:45.820 some level of radioactive waste, and, uh, I think it would be very hard to, um, uh, to push that

00:24:54.240 through from a political standpoint. Jeez, we are just killing ourselves. How far are we, Jeff, from,

00:25:01.280 you know, we are just shutting down oil and gas and coal. We're going to go into, uh, brownouts.

00:25:07.640 Everybody is saying that that's coming this summer. Um, you know, I'm, I'm all for a green

00:25:13.460 revolution. I'm all for, you know, everything we have to do to have good, stable energy that's

00:25:18.920 really super clean. Um, but we're shutting down. We're talking about getting rid of all

00:25:24.000 the hydroelectric plants and getting rid of all of the dams in Idaho and Washington state.

00:25:29.660 That's insanity. How close are we to something revolutionary?

00:25:33.600 Uh, well, there's, um, quite a few reasons to be, for us to be very optimistic, actually. Uh, back in

00:25:43.760 2019, I actually, um, my prediction at the time was that by 2024, um, we would have a major breakthrough

00:25:53.800 in nuclear fusion reactors, uh, in that, um, we'd see the first fusion reactors actually producing,

00:26:02.580 uh, net positive energy. In other words, they would produce more energy than was required to

00:26:08.500 run and control, um, fusion reaction. And the benefit of nuclear fusion is that, um, some forms

00:26:16.280 of it produce absolutely no radioactive waste. And I can say, um, sitting here in 2022, the summer of

00:26:22.840 2022, um, I feel more confident than ever than that, that that prediction will be proven to be

00:26:30.200 accurate. And the real exciting developments are actually happening in the private sector right

00:26:35.160 now. So there's companies out there, Commonwealth fusion systems, uh, out of Boston, uh, general

00:26:41.760 fusion out of Vancouver. Uh, TAE is another big one out of California. They're doing incredible work

00:26:49.260 and they're getting very close, uh, to that point of, of at least producing proof of concept.

00:26:55.200 So, yeah, that, that's what I was going to say. Proof of concept, because I've heard

00:26:59.840 that, that they just did an experiment and showed that it is, it's possible and it's working, but it

00:27:07.140 was like a fraction of a second that it was online, right?

00:27:12.440 That's, that's right. They haven't built out yet the commercial scale, um, uh, fusion reactors,

00:27:19.080 which is what's happening right now. And, you know, once they have that commercial scale,

00:27:24.060 and we can think of that as being something that would fit inside of, uh, their compact reactors

00:27:29.000 that would fit inside of the, uh, a semi-trailer, for example, or, you know, a small warehouse, um,

00:27:36.120 they'll be that small and, um, much better designed for a distributed, uh, uh, utility grid,

00:27:44.260 basically.

00:27:47.060 Um, when it comes to batteries, I, I don't know if you saw the light year, um, that is coming out.

00:27:52.800 I think this is a French vehicle and they're talking about how it has solar panels on it.

00:27:57.240 So you never have to charge it, blah, blah, blah. But you know, it, it, it also has a range

00:28:02.100 of 43 miles. Um, you know, you, you can, you can charge it as you drive it. Um, and, uh, you

00:28:10.660 know, you can get better mileage on it, but that's what they're guaranteeing. Now they're

00:28:15.440 saying this is the first one of its kind that can charge it, uh, on the way. I know in my house,

00:28:21.380 I'm completely off the grid. So I have wind, solar, and natural gas backups, uh, or propane

00:28:29.600 backup generators. Um, but it is, it's not ready for prime time. It's way, way expensive.

00:28:36.580 And the batteries that I have are, I don't know, 15 or $20,000 a piece. And there's a size

00:28:42.400 of a couch. How close are we to on batteries? And with everything that's going on in the world,

00:28:48.500 I mean, we won't mine our own, uh, you know, minerals for batteries. Are we going to be

00:28:55.560 able to have the stuff to build them here?

00:28:59.780 Well, that, you know, that, that car, the light year, I mean, it's, it's an, I kind of

00:29:06.120 look at that as an interesting science project. Uh, you know, theoretically you can charge,

00:29:12.020 you know, uh, uh, the, the, the batteries through the solar panels, uh, to get enough

00:29:18.280 to drive a few miles, but it takes such a long time. It's not practical at all. And to

00:29:24.100 your point, very expensive. The car is more than a quarter of a million dollars. The batteries

00:29:28.700 add additional costs onto that. A much smarter approach is actually more similar to what you've

00:29:33.840 taken. You know, put solar panels, for example, on the roof of your home, buy a $50,000, uh, electric

00:29:41.000 vehicle and charge that vehicle with the electricity that's coming off of your solar panels. That'll

00:29:46.860 get you in at a fraction of the price and, um, uh, you know, emission free. That's a great

00:29:53.180 solution. Now there is something I go ahead. I was going to say there's something I think you'll

00:29:59.680 be very excited about, um, which is a new company, uh, that just came out of stealth, uh, called

00:30:06.200 Avalanche, uh, Energy. And they are building the equivalent of what's happening in Idaho, in Idaho,

00:30:13.800 but a fusion reactor and get this, their device is roughly the size of a large shoe box.

00:30:22.640 So one foot by feet in size, you and I could easily stand up and hold one in our hands. And

00:30:31.580 their approach to the fusion reactor is very different rather than the temperature of the sun

00:30:37.320 to create this plasma reaction or extremely high pressures, uh, to kind of fuse ions. Um, they're

00:30:45.880 taking, uh, an interesting approach in trapping ions in orbit and then using very high voltage to

00:30:54.240 create the plasma reaction. So in theory, 600,000 volts, uh, will, uh, maintain this plasma reaction,

00:31:03.640 fuse the ions and release this clean energy, no radioactive waste of any kind. And what's

00:31:09.540 interesting about this is it's something that's the size of a shoe box could actually be used as the

00:31:16.080 source of energy for a car, for a semi-trailer, for a cargo ship, and even for an aircraft.

00:31:24.240 Wow. How far away is that? I'm just looking at it now. It's incredible.

00:31:33.240 It is. And in fact, um, it's, it's very timely for our discussion. This, uh, they just came out of

00:31:39.640 stealth, uh, just a few weeks ago, very promising technology looks good on paper in terms of theory.

00:31:46.700 They're already working on some prototypes. The most challenging thing that they need to overcome is

00:31:52.040 really how to manage this 600,000 volts, basically reaction inside of the small device. It's no easy

00:31:59.980 challenge, but, uh, it can be done. I can see how it can be done, uh, which is why it's such a

00:32:06.820 promising company. And so I think this is a great kind of compliment to these compact nuclear fusion

00:32:14.320 reactors, which would, you know, fuel municipalities, cities, large neighborhoods, casinos. And then this

00:32:22.780 would be small enough to, uh, to fuel a small group of homes, or like I said, a semi-trailer or

00:32:29.300 even an aircraft, which is a really exciting possibility. Okay. So, um, one more question. I've

00:32:36.180 got to take a break in about a minute and we'll come back with you, but, um, uh, 600 and some

00:32:41.020 volts, uh, volts and Watts are different. How many Watts is that? How many Watts would it

00:32:48.140 take? I mean, how can you get it from the sun from, you know, in your car? Uh, well, let's,

00:32:55.860 let's put it this way. Uh, an easy analog would be a 600,000 volts. Um, uh, compare that to, uh,

00:33:03.420 the voltage in your car battery, you know, what, what uses turns your engine over that's

00:33:08.720 about 13 volts. So there's a big gap between, uh, the two, um, to maintain this reaction,

00:33:17.160 but it's not insurmountable. That's the, that's the key. Okay. So it's a shoe box connected to

00:33:25.340 a very large series of batteries. Uh, yeah. Well, in fact, you wouldn't need it as many batteries

00:33:32.320 because it's producing a net energy output, right? So once you get it started, it doesn't,

00:33:39.660 it can feed off itself. That's exactly right. That's exactly right. Wow. That's great. The

00:33:45.940 batteries, the batteries would store enough energy to start the reaction and then maintain it.

00:33:52.560 Wow. That, that would be incredible. Okay. Hang on just a second more with, uh, Jeff Brown. I want

00:33:57.140 to talk to him a little bit about AI, some really scary stuff's coming out. And you know, the average

00:34:03.580 Joe is not going to know what's alive and what's not with AI soon. And we'll talk to him about that

00:34:10.640 coming up in a second.
