The answer to this week's trivia question once again Leon Pinot now, after the contest.

Do you remember where you were when you first heard about the Lahti Salute ferment Americans, it's like the moon landing except the lot salute actually happened, and people were angry America had already been burned by the serious finale of lost, and now the hoping

the president was alluding Marines with coffee. We knew that anger on the right was high, but what about the left? I was on that helicopter with the present by failing to stop saluting that marine with a lotta myself greatest regret, not just of the Obama presidency. My entire life John Favour is in many ways you're typical former aid to Bronco Burma hosts hid podcast. He sends a hundred thirty tweets per day and he is unable to make eye contact for more than three seconds without looking at his phone and even now, five years later, he can't stop. Thinking about the Lahti salute sometimes late at night I heard a voice whispering in the wind, but it's my rose, but my whale ets

whatever tendencies Johnny Depp obsession. Looking back it's hard to believe the Brok Obama would salute a marine with the water, but remember this was two thousand fourteen. Are I time now for the ice bucket challenge in a lot of things we enjoy in two thousand fourteen seem ridiculous. Today, like the walking dead matter more. But another thing, that's hard to believe is something John brought up, that no, One on the helicopter stopped the president and it made us wonder- was a real possible for job or anyone else on the plane to stop the Lahti summit to find out

we rented a helicopter with the exact dimensions and configuration of Marine one ran a little experiment. Ok, so I mean my producer in the helicopter and what are we doing so? I'm seated where President Obama would have said I am holding a latte that we got from the right of the helicopter door has opened walking down the stairs lifting my ok. So what do you think? I don't know of all stop. It. Back in the studio. We call John Avril,

John, it's Matt from Slow Burma. We just got back from the airfield and we determined pretty conclusion really that no one would have been able to stop the Lahti salute. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So much president trapped by be scanned semi letter, adulterous cereal texting release. You never had a scandal that is holding a cup of learning the marine and to know that I couldn't have prevented. That's. Thank you. You're a real friend, thanks, John sure thing, really rather helicopter requesting that what do you mean? You're right? I was actually in the plant with alarm left the. Why does a year before this whole thing? Clearly, the trauma from the Lahti salute had left John several confused. After all, this was a confusing time in America. I'm sorry, I'm on a fox remember for both the left and the right to hang. I was hardly take this in context.

There's plenty more ahead after this short break storm lot. Slow Burma is sponsored by we and we undies first, ever community underwear sharing programme ever wonder what like to walk a mile in someone else's giddies We only sends you and other members underwear, along with a photo in brief biography of the owner. We wear their underwear and then send him back when you feel like you ve gotten yourself. If you're like me, you probably still have a ton of questions about the Lahti Salute for example, what drove President Obama to salute with a latte food or four beverage like a bottle of Snapple or a turkey leg? Has President Obama ever been to the renaissance, fair President Obama ever been to the Renaissance Fair, but mostly, I think about that marine

Imagine you list for the? U S marine corps, train dear pushups shave, your head. You run lapse of shouting about how, but you are, and then, during the defining moment of your military career reading, the presidential helicopter you get saluted with a lotta. We tracked down the Marina President Obama saluted. His name is Lieutenant Chris Wheel and he replied from the court in two thousand seventeen he agreed to sit down with me and in an emotional conversation we talked about how it felt to be on the receiving end of the Lahti Salute lieutenant we'll. I know this

be very difficult for you not really. If you ever need to stop if the pain becomes too great, please just tell me: I really doubt it so how does it feel to get saluted with a latte? I told you on the phone. It was fine. Wasn't that big a deal? but in another sense it wasn't fine and it was an enormous steel and it didn't seem like American knew how to cope with such an offence? It wasn't like George W Bush had ever made a mistake with the: U S military, but in fact the United States have faced a remarkably similar situation. A sin

three before here's presidential historian Douglas Brinkley boy. You know a lot of people forget this, but actually president, just re Arthur got in its absolute base trouble of his own back in eighteen. Eighty three Arthur without a wistful, stop tour and one of those stops Present Arthur saluted some major general while he was holding a bottle a root beer which of course, back in those days, was made a pure uncut mexican cocaine and the scandal became known in the newspapers is gestures. Cheese up. You can open a newspaper with our reading about gestures, cheese up while the back lasted a skin was so ferocious that just art there was first, a pint of fall guy, so he fired his Secretary of locomotive affairs and then ended up selling them to the prussian Empire while in your real historian. Yes, I am incredible a real historian with a real store

oh, no, no! No! This is a real. I thought we were doing a joke. Obviously, as reporters were obliged to consider every side of the story, if there's a football game, he talked to the home team and the visitors. If there's a vote on a bill, you talk to Democrats. Republicans. If woman is accused of being possessed by the devil, you talk to her accuser, and two Satan by summoning the prince of darkness and blood sacrifice, that's journalism, and so we knew that before this was over, we had to talk to the Lahti, salute her and chief himself, Barack Obama. Because- and this is weird Obama has never actually talked about. The Lahti salute. Here's the president, a secretary in two thousand fourteen right. As the Lahti salute, scandal was escalating. The president's lot I salute or coffee salute

it was getting off of Marine one saluting the marine with me, a cup of coffee, even ass. To respond to this, I haven't present aware of. I have been here. I have to talk to him about it after five years. Had no one really talk to President Obama about it, so I did what any podcast journalist would do. I requested an interview with Barack Obama. And his spokesman granted the request on the condition that I did not ask about the Lahti salute. I was Obama would talk about literally any subject his marriage, what it was like to be born in Kenya:

Any subject at all, except the Lahti Salute, I declined the interview. Frankly, I told a spokesman that some weak tea or should I say a week, lot tee. I have been reporting a story for five years straight. In that time I have lived and breathed the Lahti summit. I see it when I closed my eyes, I think about it. When I drift off to sleep, I tend to talk about it. All the time and that tendency has frayed my relationship with the people closer to me, my friends with my wife, with my wife's divorce lawyer with my wife's new boyfriend Dave. But in the end America needs this story. Because the Lahti Salute is the story of America think about it, handle that nearly brought down a president started with a humble cup of coffee, and so I knew TAT I had to go back

how to warn mills. The barrister who made that fateful lot- that's more like a poor man- oh god, hello, Lauren, not again Lauren. I just have one question: how does it feel to have made the coffee that kicked off our nations greatest presidential scandal? Greatest? scandal. What about testers cheese up and in Andrew Jackson like commit genocide bloody salute. Lauren Lahti salute Latte salute. I'm gonna have to ask you to leave our youth ruling The word scandal is derived from the greek word scandal on which means stumbling block, but what is a stumbling and then there's this wrinkle? How do we even know that the liquid in his cup was a latte

What is President Obama was drinking? Something else entirely. Did we get the Lahti salute entirely wrong? That's next, week on episode too, of the daily show presents slow bomber. a tribal footage in today's episode was provided by shall put it in the angry reports. Doktor like angry shows. Music is composed by day my white sporting thanks D,
