00:00:34.440
The Lotus Eaters Breakfast Club, hashtag the real LBC
00:00:40.360
Or if you're in other parts of the world, it's not even the morning, is it?
00:00:43.460
Well, in America, it's really late at night, isn't it?
00:00:55.260
hey another day another dollar another chance to put right what once went wrong as always i am
00:00:59.820
joined by my producer little harry how are you this morning good sir morning yeah i'm all good
00:01:06.060
are you are you in the uk and you're tired from staying up all night or getting up here
00:01:11.580
insanely early to watch the football i'm not i went to bed at a normal time got up at a normal
00:01:17.900
time it all happened while i was asleep used to be a massive football fan but just
00:01:23.020
if we get to the semi-final or the final i'll watch it all and get proper excited and everything
00:01:27.740
i'll warn you this i know the glorious band of shows for you don't like football
00:01:31.080
but if england do win the world cup i'll talk about it at least for five ten minutes that day
00:01:35.780
or the day after rather be warned i'll keep it to a minimum today is a bit of a football day because
00:01:41.080
we just had a game it's all in the legacy couple of mainstream i mean look look look
00:01:57.040
Because they went to print long before it actually happened
00:02:07.720
Because it is the main thing in the news cycle today
00:02:16.080
jude benningham scored two in quick succession then uh and then they scored one then we got a
00:02:23.840
penalty then they got a penalty there was a red card it was an exciting game by all accounts again
00:02:28.560
i didn't watch it but we won three two and it was in that stadium in mexico where if you're old enough
00:02:37.200
to remember and or like football in 1986 maradona the argentine legend who's now passed away
00:02:51.360
In 1986, in a quarterfinal, England lost to Argentina.
00:02:56.480
Maradona jumped up with the goalkeeper to do a header.
00:02:58.800
And just to get ahead of the header, he hit it with his hand.
00:03:05.900
And the goal stood, and we lost the game and got knocked out of the World Cup.
00:03:08.300
The hand of God, Maradona's little hand of God.
00:03:10.540
His little Jeremy Beedle's a tiny man winning Maradona.
00:03:12.840
it was in that stadium the hand of god so now it's the hangover of god
00:03:20.360
it's clever isn't it it's clever what they've done there the hangover of god because hangover
00:03:25.020
is very very very close to the word hand and hangover so anyway they're saying one of the
00:03:35.540
big stories is and i'll move on after this don't worry about it is that because it was
00:03:38.860
we're supposed to start at 1 a.m our time we actually start at 2 a.m because there was thunder
00:03:43.820
and lightning they can't let them play these days if there's thunder and lightning health and safety
00:03:48.380
so it didn't start till two so i only finished a few hours ago anyway that's it that's it england
00:03:55.740
through to the quarterfinals we'll play norway norway beat brazil norway beat brazil that harland
00:04:02.860
he he's really good he can't stop him scoring goals that harland fella
00:04:06.300
son of Alfinger Haaland who Roy Keane ended his career by breaking his leg deliberately
00:04:10.980
remember that anyone no we've got to play Norway next we could beat them but then probably Argentina
00:04:17.540
and then probably France in the final so still a long way to go still a big ask all right that's
00:04:24.000
it that's it it's on the front pages but we'll I'll skip over it I've done it I've done it now
00:04:27.460
it's out of the way all right the express it's a good paper you can read your express now
00:04:33.380
yeah a lot of the pages go with the farage story today um particularly some of the
00:04:39.300
the more sloppy tabloids okay so here we go reform leader defiant after claims of financial
00:04:46.560
links to a convicted criminal farage this is a hit job i've done nothing wrong oh it's a hit
00:04:53.600
job is it yeah welcome to the club welcome to the club hypnotode like it's anything new to
00:05:00.200
raj to be the subject of a hit job well i said it before and i'll say it again this is either
00:05:06.680
all these things about nigel's personal finances a bit of a thorn in his side
00:05:17.000
because that's his limited company isn't it all in the side limited or something that's
00:05:21.080
his company anyway begins to be a bit of a thorn in nigel's side his personal finances
00:05:25.320
it's either a complete nothing burger and he really has done nothing wrong
00:05:28.040
which is totally possible as well i mean it could well just end in that it's just nothing
00:05:32.540
or this does destroy him his political career we'll have to see we'll just have to that's all
00:05:38.440
i can say just have to see i completely reserve judgment until the investigation is done and even
00:05:43.520
then even when you've been investigated by someone whatever the police whatever sometimes
00:05:46.960
still stitch up job isn't it anyway the latest thing is like the third or fourth thing for nigel
00:06:18.260
But he's been involved in all sorts of businesses
00:06:20.920
at some point a few years back some FBI agents I believe this is a story if I get any of these
00:06:26.900
details I've said slightly wrong apologies but this is what I read it's what I can recall from
00:06:30.580
reading it yesterday um some FBI agents undercover went to him and said can basically basically said
00:06:38.440
can you launder money for us we'll give you a bunch of money you run it through your accounts
00:06:42.820
and your businesses and then give it back to us or most of it back to us and he which is just
00:06:48.080
completely legal money laundering like you know layering whatever and um and he said yes
00:06:56.240
and that dude's a close friend quite a close friend of nigel i mean really quite close
00:07:02.240
like on the night of the um brexit result he's like literally standing next to farage and
00:07:08.240
loads and loads of times there's pictures of nigel out you know out and about and this guy
00:07:14.140
posgeorge is next to him and uh what else he apparently he rented a house near buckingham
00:07:20.020
palace and nigel stayed there a couple of times not since he's been an mp but nonetheless a couple
00:07:24.740
times this same guy posgeorge gave nigel or gave reform some money at one time he gave him nine
00:07:30.200
grand and then another time he gave him like 14 grand or 15 grand but nothing necessarily illegal
00:07:35.860
about any of this might be kind of bad optics that nigel stayed in the house of a fraudster
00:08:10.580
all the like all the rest of nigel's the thorny nigel side is really the crux of it is did nigel
1.00
00:08:18.540
declare all the right things in the right time in the right way it's more about that
0.84
00:08:23.340
not that you're not allowed to be his friend it's that should nigel have declared the bits of money
00:08:30.560
and things he got from this guy and was there anything expected in return don't know i'll wait
00:08:36.580
for the investigation i'm not prepared to just completely start saying nigel did xyz nigel
00:08:41.340
just wait and see i'd say but a lot of the papers are going with it look the express
00:08:47.980
the metro the metro the metro uh look crack down on party donors amid row over posh george
00:08:57.220
the guardian crack down on donations as farage faces a new gift row
00:09:04.120
that half haitian half japanese woman beat the number one seed in tennis
00:09:09.320
which might go on to win wimbledon you might think women's wimbledon um the mirror the mirror
0.99
00:09:15.340
they hate nights aren't they real bad real bad i mean i'm not a fan but i'll give him the benefit
00:09:19.620
of the doubt and stuff but they don't they don't yet more questions for raj and cons cash convict
00:09:47.160
In Britain, Sunday morning there's a lot of political shows
00:09:49.500
Aren't there, like Laura Koenigsberg or Trevor Phillips
00:09:58.060
it comes down to i think it's fair to say i suppose it boils down to one of the rules is that
00:10:05.040
you're supposed to declare anything even 12 months before you become an mp and so quite
00:10:12.740
often reforms seem to be saying nigel wasn't even an mp and it's like yeah yeah we know
00:10:17.960
because the rules are 12 months beforehand as well though
00:10:21.000
I just think wait until the actual parliamentary standards investigation
00:10:29.460
Whatever it is, comes to some sort of conclusion
00:10:32.120
Again, it'll either be a complete nothing burger
00:10:37.580
It is simply nothing more than a hit piece from his political enemies
00:10:41.520
Or it's a full-blown scandal and Nigel might have to face a by-election in Crackton
00:10:47.120
Or just stand down and slink away and go off and live in America
00:10:50.420
and make loads more money like he's always wanted to
00:11:26.960
Puts his hand up there and handballs it in
0.99
00:11:36.840
Because the result hadn't happened when they went to print
00:11:58.420
I sort of got the impression he was blown to smithereens
00:12:18.360
they had that and um yeah his successor his son wasn't there he's either he's either dead himself
00:12:28.820
or crazily wounded otherwise they would have trotted him out by now some said he lost a leg
00:12:35.920
maybe both legs certainly one leg it seems like and that maybe his face there was reports on there
00:12:40.860
his face is all burnt up or that he's he's lost his lips was one report so
00:12:50.620
he probably looks terrible he probably looks like a if he's even alive probably looks like
00:12:56.460
a terrible terrible burns victim like missing limbs and stuff so obviously the optics of that
00:13:01.340
are terrible aren't they so they you say they they just don't ever ever show him
00:13:35.420
like everyone there knows that he's only going to be prime minister for another like two weeks
00:13:40.520
is it if that on a bang on about two weeks so his power his authority is already over really isn't
00:13:47.780
it basically i mean he can still do stuff technically he can still ring up an admiral
00:13:53.840
or the captain of a nuclear sub and tell him to fire a nuke technically but yeah in reality
00:14:01.060
power has ebbed away from him and everyone knows that and so at the NATO summit there's just people
00:14:09.900
saying that he's a sideline people not interested in sitting down having a working lunch with him
00:14:14.020
or anything if he says anything in a in a committee or a meeting people are like okay mate yeah all
00:14:18.060
right pipe down we're just waiting for your successor now uh okay President Warren's allies
00:14:25.020
must spend more or face consequences on eve of summit I mean that is what the Americans and Trump
00:14:29.720
been saying the whole time haven't they so they're not changing their tune on that
00:14:36.520
i mean if the ball is really in the united states is caught on all of this isn't it
00:14:43.320
they can only sort of cajole the european nations the european members of nato so far and if the
00:14:49.480
european nations just simply refuse to spend the amount of money the united states want
00:14:54.680
what can you do you can sort of pour scorn someone like trump or rubio or whatever
00:15:00.500
can pour scorn on them or they can actually you know do something profound you know like
00:15:06.580
pull out of nato entirely or they'll just say right if you don't spend much money we won't
00:15:11.260
spend much money then don't you like that anyway it's just an ongoing thing is it it's always been
00:15:16.660
the case i have been reading recently or on and off for quite a few weeks actually about the
00:15:21.820
clement attley government on the state of politics i'm going to do a video all about the attley years
00:15:26.760
and um in that in the late 40s i.e nato's really new or the early 50s rather the early 50s the
00:15:34.580
korean war clement attley decided he was going to get involved in the korean war even though we
00:15:39.320
couldn't really fold it our own country's bankrupt and there was ration cards and everything true
00:15:43.640
austerity he still decided britain needs to be involved in the korean war loads of british troops
00:15:48.740
fought and died in korea in the 50s um even then even then from inception the united states are
00:15:57.700
complaining i mean rightly so from their point of view from their point of view
00:16:01.300
complaining that all the other nato countries aren't spending enough
00:16:07.460
it's been the story of nato the whole time the whole time america saying you guys have
00:16:13.300
got to spend more spend more spend more we we can't just prop you up but then
00:16:18.740
what 70 years later 80 odd years later 70 knocking 80 still the same old story still the same old
00:16:27.400
story so okay Tories offer PM solution to to deport a Rochdale ringleader I mean not really
00:16:37.600
not really police must stop engaging in woke culture wars reports said yeah good one
00:17:43.340
and he's just going to get basically balled out by trump and ignored by everyone else
00:17:47.540
there's a lot about his his premiership doesn't it that's what it is a failure
00:17:54.640
starmer to be sidelined after defense funding row he's going to have to go there saying uh yeah we
00:18:02.540
said we would increase our defense budget by 15 billion but actually we're not we haven't i haven't
00:18:12.620
it's not going to go down well with the donald is it
00:18:19.660
you know as far as i don't know bunk off just means like skipping school
00:18:22.620
like you bunked school we bunked work calling in a fake city or whatever
00:18:29.340
loads of people gonna bunk off work because they're up all night
00:18:55.060
Silverstone, I know there was the British Grand Prix
00:19:17.660
They treat everyone as a second class citizen
1.00
00:19:19.520
They treat everyone as an exercise in getting you
00:19:28.540
Who says families are sent home with just a leaflet
1.00
00:19:32.400
you're going there with nearly any ailment unless you're actually like bleeding out
00:19:37.820
you're going there like oh well did i go anyway go home
00:19:41.580
it's utterly broken it's uh the nhs is crazily broke considering how much money we spend on it
00:19:50.540
if it was one of those things where it was insanely underfunded it would make a bit more
00:19:55.560
sense why it's so terribly broken why the outcome and i'm not just not just saying that right we
00:20:00.400
know the data's in that the health outcomes are really really bad on the hs one of the worst in
00:20:08.560
the world in the developed first world at least now if it was crazily underfunded that would be
00:20:15.980
one thing that would make sense but it's not crazily underfunded we're ruining our economy
00:20:21.300
in order to fund it quite a high level and yet still it just doesn't work properly at all for
00:20:29.620
The number of people that have had botched operations or even died
00:20:36.400
They keep saying, oh this hospital here has done some failings
00:20:40.680
This hospital there one time has done some failings
00:20:44.160
Remember just the other day there was a hospital
00:20:47.320
Where was it, in the Midlands or Nottingham or something
00:21:42.180
But he does fear that he might have to face a by-election
00:21:48.880
Will come back negatively from his point of view
00:21:53.760
weight loss pills from chemists but not on the nhs until 2028 i won't even bother reading the blurb
00:22:00.520
that's really all it is there's loads of there's new weight loss drugs they're calling this new
00:22:04.000
one what is it wega v not heard of that until today until this morning these wega v drugs
00:22:10.300
and some of them a lot of them are for legit reasons like people with diabetes
00:22:15.420
like you need to lose weight asap because you've got diabetes or you've got insane really really
00:22:21.220
bad heart disease you're gonna have a stroke or a heart attack imminently unless you lose loads of
00:22:25.200
weight that for those people right okay fine good even right i mean you shouldn't have eaten yourself
00:22:30.640
into that sort of state but whatever legit legit medicines that they worry that it will just be
00:22:36.620
used for um cosmetic reasons on the nhs people just go in and they're like they're not actually
00:22:42.940
insanely unhealthy they've not got terrible heart disease or diabetes or anything they're just like
00:22:47.300
i want to be a bit slimmer but i can't stop eating cake and pie can you give me drugs for that
00:22:53.140
just stop eating cake and pie and biscuits all the time do a bit of exercise
00:23:04.760
all right they're the front pages they're the front pages there you go do you have a look at
00:23:10.660
our poll we usually do a look at our poll today i don't even know what it was because this morning
00:23:13.840
um me and harry just asked the uh you guys in the chat getting more and more interactive with
00:23:20.560
anything um we asked you guys in the chat we've done that two or three times before haven't we
00:23:25.520
what would you like the poll to be today because quite often i have noticed the chat aren't happy
00:23:30.940
with the poll like what slop poll is this what dumb question that was oh how your poll doesn't
00:23:36.600
even make sense or whatever all right so we asked you guys so i don't know what it's going to be
0.63
00:25:07.240
when I was the candidate for Swindon South
0.99
00:25:11.660
who was the candidate for somewhere else in Wiltshire
00:25:25.960
and I've been all over the internet saying spicy stuff
00:25:30.320
if that was too spicy for Richard Tice's palate
00:25:35.720
but she's done like she's done i think she liked a tommy robinson tweet or maybe i can't remember
00:25:41.480
the exact details maybe she'd replied under a tommy tweet going yeah i agree with tommy something like
00:25:46.360
that it was the absolute minimal minimal minimal thing ever she got deselected
00:25:54.040
without being rude to her i don't mean this to be rude to her but she's a nobody really
0.83
00:25:57.400
right so yeah they'll do it they'll do it to nobody's absolute nobodies so yeah nigel's the
0.84
00:26:07.560
the target of of hit pieces yeah all right should we move on then what else have we got in the news
0.70
00:26:16.520
there was one thing at least one thing i thought was of interest uh we have to scroll past the
00:26:22.760
the footy ball as it is the top of all the things oh just real quick to say where brazil got knocked
00:26:30.200
out today later today spain and portugal play each other in the knockout round so one of them
00:26:35.340
will be out as well one of the other big hitters will be out as well that's all that's all here we
00:26:42.060
go look marine le pen appeal verdict why this moment matters a little bit of french politics
00:26:49.060
could be pivotal thing for france um so she was convicted of i think the actual conviction was
00:26:58.180
like a type of fraud and the story is well i'll just i'll just i'll just uh paraphrase it for you
00:27:05.380
i'll just pass it for you um over a number of years quite a few number of years she spent money
00:27:12.820
whether it was her or just she greenlit other people to do it she greenlit money on on the um
0.94
00:27:19.860
the wages of parliamentary french parliamentary aids so that they then became effectively full-blown
00:27:27.620
partisans for national rally her party and like that's not allowed so it's not like she embezzled
00:27:34.820
the money and put it in her own pocket and bought a motor home with it and went on holiday with it
00:28:35.360
you get a right to appeal because if you say the the trial the original trial wasn't fair
00:28:42.600
the judge was biased you know you get an appeal so now i think on i think tomorrow
00:28:48.200
that appeals process comes to an end and we'll probably have the result for you guys on wednesday
00:28:53.100
morning i imagine and it's just simply whether her career or her aspirations to be not her career
00:28:59.460
sorry her aspirations to actually run for and be president of france it just completely hangs on
00:29:04.460
that if the appeals judge says no i uphold the original thing of the trial and you're barred
00:29:12.720
legally barred from holding office for 10 years odd um then she cannot will not be able to run
00:29:19.220
for it next time i mean if that happens her deputy will jordan bardella you'll be someone
00:29:27.180
called jordan bardella if the appeals judge says no um it was a it was a bad fake terrible
00:29:37.260
injustice type trial and i overturn it or whatever or at least rescind part of the sentence that
00:29:43.660
says you can't hold high office or the electronic tag apparently marine le pen just said if i have
00:29:48.460
to wear an electronic tag even um um it's over well at least for this election is over i'm not
00:29:55.180
not going to actually run for president because for various reasons so possibly probably the exact
00:30:05.780
future of french politics stands in the balance a bit certainly as far as the marine le pen is
00:30:16.700
concerned all right do you have anything else the football the football that's that harland
00:30:22.860
fella you can't stop him scoring goals you can't he's too big and powerful and good
00:30:30.540
you know one of those people when they're in their prime like ronaldo not cristiano
00:30:33.500
ronaldo the brazilian ronaldo or also cristiano ronaldo some people you just can't stop him
0.79
00:30:38.700
scoring goals he's one of those oh look there's where nigel got egged one time
0.67
00:30:45.260
or milkshakes whatever it was there's pos george standing next to him okay
00:30:53.500
all right what else we got oh um sky news sky news i don't think is they've actually reported
00:30:59.660
it much but is in this in the news at the moment that sky news are gonna buy or have bought by tv
00:31:05.980
news all of itv news or their news outlets and their uh their streaming services new streaming
00:31:14.780
services have been bought by sky news that's sort of a big thing relatively kind of for the landscape
00:31:20.540
the legacy corporate mainstream media sky news is owned by uh what is it nbc
00:31:26.780
it used to be rupert murdoch didn't it but it's now owned by nbc
00:31:32.060
so nbc obviously american uh will have loads more control over british news
00:31:42.780
i mean that's a story you know i think mildly important okay harry kane taking that penalty
00:32:18.460
sort of trying to come back into the fold of the royal family to some extent but now the story is
00:32:24.840
that um megan's going to stay away some people really really care about the royals don't they
00:32:32.700
the royal story like every tiny little twist and turn of sort of the royal saga i don't care that
00:32:40.700
much at all really maybe the royals that are in the direct line of succession but harry and megan
00:34:17.040
Scarfell Pike and Ben Nevis in one day or one 24-hour period
00:34:21.020
all right what else have we got off the express got in oh yeah that was slightly thing um
00:34:33.520
Jordan Henderson one of our players apparently after the game when this though after the game
00:34:38.540
they're celebrating they run around the pitch and they go into the crowd and kiss their wives
00:34:42.660
and girlfriends and they get flags and they run around the pitch and stuff he like broke his leg
00:34:48.080
in that it broke his leg oh well got a freak injury he injured himself in some sort of freak
00:34:55.520
i don't even know what the details are some sort of freak incident where he's badly injured himself
00:34:59.440
doing that running around celebrating it'd be a shame wouldn't it imagine that's how your world
00:35:05.580
cup ends you ever see people in ufc occasionally win a fight and their celebrations are over the
00:35:12.760
top they injure themselves or knock themselves out they're trying to do a backflip or something
00:35:16.080
climb up on the top of the oxygon and do a backflip knock themselves out
00:35:19.940
it happens things like that okay okay the sun if we've got any slop of any interest
00:36:23.780
the world changed profoundly perhaps the most profound change that's ever happened in sort
0.98
00:36:31.960
of a one two year period in human civilization happened in that year those years the black
0.85
00:36:41.400
death it's earlier in europe in places like italy in central europe and eastern europe it was sort
00:36:46.500
more like 1437 but over 1348 or 149 something crazy like a third maybe as much as a half of
00:37:00.240
all people died depending on where you are some communities utterly wiped out some towns and
00:37:08.640
villages 99% or 100% death rate. The world before the Black Death and the world after
0.79
00:37:17.460
are completely different. I've talked about it a number of times on Epoch. A number of
00:37:23.800
times in passing, especially when I'm talking about that period. What was it? Edward, is
00:37:28.460
it Edward III was king? Wasn't he? Is that right? Yeah. The Black Death. Papal Bull
00:38:37.180
all right on this day in 1775 congress congress u.s congress issues the declaration of the causes
00:38:47.580
and necessity of taking up arms against the english look 1775 so one year before
00:38:54.700
full-blown the declaration of independence and full-blown hostilities break out
00:38:59.140
they had already been firing and fighting and things in places like massachusetts
00:39:32.400
a year before it all basically kicks off he's one of the people that penned this
00:39:40.780
a declaration by the representatives of the united colonies of north america
00:39:46.520
now met in general congress at philadelphia setting forth the causes and necessity of
00:39:52.280
they're taking up arms there you go so it didn't just start on the 4th of July 1776 it's been a
00:40:04.560
long time in the been brewing away bubbling away for a long long long time many many many years in
00:40:10.440
fact all right then well just say about the 4th of July happy birthday America I know it's belated
00:40:20.780
now we didn't have a beau show on saturday did we when it was your birthday your 250th birthday
00:40:27.020
belated there you go happy birthday okay on this day in 1785 u.s congress unanimously
00:40:36.240
resolves to name the u.s currency the dollar and adopts a decimal coinage and that's quite long
00:40:42.360
after independence and really winning the war of independence the revolutionary war rather
00:40:49.740
whatever you want to call it I mean wasn't it until if memory serves and apologies if I get
00:40:54.720
this ever so slightly wrong I don't think it was until 1789 was it 1787 or 1789 before the British
00:41:06.140
finally sort of accepted ratified and accepted and acknowledged the United States as a thing
00:41:12.260
and their last garrisons I think in New York I think even maybe on Manhattan Island their last
00:41:17.000
garrisons left it was many many years after 1776 i mean the revolutionary war the war of
00:41:25.120
independence lasted for a few years but not that many years which has just been over four years
00:41:29.940
already before britain sort of formally accepted it i mean yorktown was quite a few years before
00:41:36.860
that right it's just interesting to note i think i think when you look at the more you look at the
00:41:44.740
details of the war of independence the more you're sort of shocked or surprised by the details of it
00:41:50.400
oh that happened in that order was it or that didn't happen till then or that happened much
00:41:54.020
earlier than i would have thought or well there was a massive reversal one way or another and
00:41:59.260
it just doesn't really play out the way you probably think it does if you've got a low
00:42:02.820
resolution view of it in loads and loads of different ways it doesn't play out how you
00:42:09.440
would suspect it would it did all right what we got here on this day in 1885 louis pasteur
00:42:18.240
successfully gives an anti-rabies vaccine to a nine to a nine-year-old joseph meister saving his
00:42:24.400
life yeah louis pasteur one of the all-time greats right revolutionized our world in all sorts of
00:42:29.680
ways he was the master he was one of the very early proponents of the germ theory of disease
00:42:34.800
late 19th century late 19th century and there's still debate about the well mid 19th century
00:42:42.080
the debate about the germ theory of disease are germs real are microscopic things real
00:42:51.640
i always find that remarkable when i'm when i'm reminded of that in the american civil war the
00:42:58.540
1860s it still hadn't really been adopted properly doctors still have dirty hands and stuff because
00:43:05.380
they a lot of people didn't believe in like bacteria and germs well louis pasteur see frenchman
00:43:15.380
um one of the greatest earliest proponents of vaccines various different types of vaccines
00:43:24.360
And that the germ theory of disease is correct, basically
00:43:40.960
He's made humanity a nicer thing, a better thing
00:43:48.700
How many children died in infancy of preventable diseases?
00:43:59.280
infant mortality was insanely higher compared to what it is today.
00:44:04.480
How many people just got an infection of something or other,
00:44:10.720
and died of it because they had no concept of the germ theory of disease?
00:44:14.100
You have to keep a wound clean, all that sort of stuff.
00:44:17.220
Louis Pasteur is responsible for saving millions and millions and millions of lives
00:44:29.600
The Central Executive Committee of the Soviet Union
00:44:33.140
Accepts the Treaty of Union signed in Moscow in December 1922
00:44:41.080
Becomes the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
00:44:48.440
I mean, the Bolshevik Revolution is in October, November, depending on which calendar you go by.
00:44:54.940
But nonetheless, it's sort of formally, sort of, all ratified and legally done.
00:45:03.860
Of course, it was only ever, the Soviet project was only ever an experiment, really.
0.71
00:45:58.700
Shall we have a look at our Rumble Rants and Superchats
00:46:01.180
Will global church history be in at number one?
00:46:32.660
the Muslims took to the Egyptian city of Heliopolis
1.00
00:46:43.080
Very soon after the death of Muhammad himself
0.94
00:47:05.800
basically expanding out from sort of mecca and medina in the arabian peninsula and then
0.78
00:47:12.260
right at the beginning of it the first two three four generations after muhammad's life boom
00:47:16.740
massive explosion massive well right away they're taking egypt heliopolis egypt
0.54
00:47:24.120
conquered egypt the bread basket of sort of the near east um it wasn't actually the pharaohs
00:47:32.380
they didn't have pharaohs by that point it's roman controlled also by zanta eastern roman
00:47:37.740
byzantine controlled the eastern roman empire um the thing that hasn't been lost on a lot of
00:47:44.640
historians is that the eastern roman empire the byzantine empire was a very very very low ebb
00:47:51.120
at that point in history very very very weak and so it's sort of perfect set of conditions a perfect
00:47:57.000
storm for another big invading army to run amok. And after they'd taken Egypt, they could
0.82
00:48:03.080
sweep across most of North Africa relatively easily. All the way up to modern-day Morocco
0.97
00:48:08.640
and stuff. And then, well, it's just a short hop across the Straits of Gibraltar, isn't
00:48:13.480
it? And then you're into Spain, you're into Europe. It took them a long time, another
00:48:19.120
800-odd years or so, wasn't it? 900-odd years before they could actually take Constantinople
00:48:24.860
itself. Anyway, all right, there you go. The Muslim expansion in the generations after
00:48:30.940
Mohammed himself. Interesting. And the second one you've got here is, in 1189, Richard the
0.97
00:48:37.640
Lionheart was crowned. Oh, the Coeur de Lyon. Do you think behind the paywall on my history
00:48:45.160
thing show, Baudet's Epochs, do consider sign up on otc.com as little as £5 a month
00:48:48.780
for the membership. Do you think I've got long-form content, multiple parts, talking
00:48:52.120
about the life and career of richard the lion heart richard the first richard plantagenet the
0.99
00:48:56.840
coeur de lion richard the lion hearted oh yeah you bet your sweet ass it's there
0.83
00:49:05.240
sometimes in conversation with mr cole benjamin oh yeah we did i think there's at least a three
0.95
00:49:10.600
part series all about richard and i think in passing i've talked about him a number of other
00:49:15.400
times i've done content on john his younger brother content on his father henry the second
00:49:48.280
dragon lady chris is now a monthly supporter oh thank you oh that's kind
00:49:53.740
i mean the inner sanctum of the glorious band the chosen few
00:50:00.040
there's an inner sort of um cadre of of uh what did alexander call is like
00:50:08.480
inner sanctum of uh companions and the inner sanctum of companions
00:50:13.040
well done dragon lady chris brilliant thank you and then you send a super chat which says
00:50:19.580
barack obama has been good friends with bill eyers and uh bernadette dawn liberal terrorists
00:50:27.600
for decades i bet the bbc has no problem with that
00:50:31.260
those names don't really ring much for bell to me perhaps i've heard the name bill eyers before i
00:50:39.300
don't know Bernadette Dorn I don't even know how you pronounce it I'll have to look that up
00:50:44.700
it's a little bit of a blind spot for me interesting I will look that up
00:50:47.400
should know more about that I suppose then yeah the BBC will have no problem with that right well
00:50:53.120
yeah the way the BBC reports on have has always for decades and decades and decades
00:51:02.900
the extremely lenient or just omit to talk about ever leftist terrorists
00:51:11.300
it's the tiniest amount of anything on the other side of the aisle it's the worst thing ever yeah
00:51:21.860
that's the way the bbc have always operated fallen firebird says i haven't been able to
00:51:28.060
do much exercise at all for months due to a back neck injury oh sorry to hear that
00:51:32.900
I've got a little bit of a weak lower back sometimes, and it's no joke, just a tiny bit of it, just muscular, it's not my actual spine, but having a bad back or neck is, no joke, sorry to hear that, but you say, but I haven't become a fat, obese, house Harnikin baron, because I don't gorge myself like a pig, really isn't hard.
00:51:53.980
a little bit of tough love for fatties i think unless you've got a genuine thing like if you've
00:52:01.440
got a thyroid problem or you've got a genuine hormone imbalance or there's something actually
00:52:06.260
physiologically wrong with you making you obese those people get a pass sure of course of course
00:52:12.320
they do if you're just eating too much cake though i haven't really got much sympathy i myself are
00:52:22.680
putting on a bit of weight tiny bit of weight in the last few years completely my fault i'm not
00:52:28.400
going to start asking to get my stomach stapled i'm not going to start taking pills i just need
00:52:34.240
to stop eating less junk i'll stop eating less in general really do a bit do a bit of cardio
00:52:40.880
not rocket science but a lot of people they'll do anything other than a bit of cardio
00:52:47.520
They'll do anything other than to stop cramming their face with cake
00:53:46.720
But they can and do still make political statements
00:54:39.080
Rumble around for today. Dragon Lady Chris says, Ayers and Dawn, Ayers' wife, were the leaders of
00:54:45.660
the Weather Underground. Oh, okay, that's them, right, okay, I know about the Weather Underground,
00:54:49.160
okay, okay, yeah, the Weather Underground, leftist, leftist terrorists, truly, yeah. Oh, that's who
00:54:54.340
they were, okay. I'd forgotten. That was their names. Fair enough, and you're saying Obama has
00:55:00.460
been friends with them for decades, is that right? Is that what you said? Obama has been good friends
00:55:34.980
fifth columnists enemies of the state and the people obama
0.84
00:55:42.780
what a wrong turn that was although you remember when he first ran it was against
00:55:49.680
um who was it against it was against that uh guy that's dead now oh god what was his name
00:55:55.620
i can't remember um someone in the chat harry put the chat up for me someone in the chat who did
00:56:01.540
Obama run against the first time what was his name it's on the tip of my tongue very very famous
00:56:08.020
very very famous politician he was uh in um he's in a concentration
00:56:12.100
oh not concentration camp sorry a prisoner of war camp in vietnam um
00:56:17.780
no not bush god it's embarrassing i can't remember his name he's really really
00:56:22.580
mccain there we go well done a gold star to angelic detective 86 john mccain yeah right
00:56:30.800
right john mccain was never going to be obama was he john mccain how could i forget john mccain
00:56:35.540
titan of u.s political history um yeah john mccain
00:56:39.620
obama wasn't probably never going to lose to mccain was he
00:57:46.860
but now they see light of the end of the tunnel
00:58:14.340
run the world i don't know i don't believe that by the way i've said that a number of times so
00:58:18.500
there isn't one cabal is there anyway perhaps the most powerful ones in the west at least
00:58:27.060
what have decided the establishment the blob the unelected deep state whatever it is you know
00:58:35.540
i've decided they don't want or need fraud anymore so they're going to try and scandal him
00:58:39.060
into oblivion yeah maybe maybe maybe they can sort of ruin anyone they want if they try hard
00:58:45.540
enough usually can't they okay emily for restore says baroness lawrence still not happy nor her
00:58:52.860
alma mater greenwich uni which is now organizing to decolonize and diversify all blue light
00:59:00.720
services yeah it will never be enough until our society is completely crime ridden until the
00:59:15.380
Someone like Baroness Lawrence won't be happy
0.99
00:59:43.980
Because George VI was the Queen's father, wasn't it?
00:59:59.020
He doesn't look like he's going to be based in any way, shape or form, does he?
01:00:04.440
so the hope is gen alpha george the seventh little georgie or not so little now he's as
01:00:12.660
tall as kate wasn't he okay robbia i just called robbia says hiya bo hiya love the show oh thanks
01:00:23.140
cheers thank you i was a libtard until i got red peeled hard after my mum showed me the
01:00:29.920
trigonometry interview with tommy robinson back in august last year you are my fave and then a
01:00:35.620
smiley face thing oh thank you that's very kind that's very kind yeah we need something a little
01:00:43.360
bit harder line than the trigonometry chaps and tommy in my opinion in my opinion it's a bit too
0.99
01:00:50.100
sieve naturally a bit too milquetoast it doesn't actually save us from demographic destruction
01:00:54.240
the sort of things that trigonometry and tommy talk about still lead just become uh becoming
01:01:01.920
and hated and despised and marginalized minority in our own ancestral homeland doesn't it we need
01:01:08.300
something a bit better than that in my opinion okay tatum 2733 says did you see how lame the
01:01:16.260
us 250 fare was ashamed exclamation mark i didn't see that over the weekend from friday evening
01:02:13.140
It all increases the probability of negative tension
01:02:18.740
The guilt and compassion part is weaponised against us
01:02:23.740
You don't want bad things to happen to innocent people
01:02:26.940
You've got compassion in your heart don't you
1.00
01:02:29.180
And then weaponise that to make you a minority
0.97
01:02:31.420
In your own ancestral homeland and ultimately wiped out
01:02:51.860
turns my stomach you're quite right savericks absolutely right absolutely right

Lost the election to Clement Attlee and Labour
1.00
