Sometimes women take power for themselves, and sometimes they do it through murder. Welcome to the community upon Cast Holly FRY and Maria marking and together we are exploring the intersection of history and true crime are first season of the show, is all about lady poisoner set. How many were just misunderstood, join us on criminality as we untangle their stories starting August. Eighteen on the I heard, radio app apple, podcast or wherever it is. You listen tat. He was an unimaginable cry. We can leave something like that would happen here at all. From the same, Family, this is the pact in listen to the pact to massacre on the Iheart Radio, app on Apple podcast or wherever you get your podcast

from you at those two psychic powers and government conspiracies history is riddled with unexplained events. You can turn back now or learn the stuff. They don't want you to know a production of. I hope we hello, welcome back to the show my name is met, my name is no, they call me, then we are joined, as always with our super producer, Alexis Coating, dark holiday, Jackson, member to see the whole thing. Most importantly, you or you you are here, and that makes this stuff. They don't want you to nose weekly list, your mail episode. We always say that you specifically, you are the most important part of the show and is where we prove it to be the case. So every week we take

of our favorite pieces of listener mail- and we share it with each other and, more importantly, with you- we ve got of interesting, grab bags you ve got some hot takes gentlemen? We do, and we are going to begin with a message from Ed are you listening How you doing more people than actual boy they were fighting my arm here. There's jacking to this no Lastly, against men, from their negative, I find out, For why seminars How do I definitely on

and we so called, making money selling books. Their holy Mars a bunch of nonsense the com. My forty years, frequency for industry. The fire you hand was his eyes no that's a lie. Will, tell us how you really feel at her head, it is fantastic. I took his advice and I gave him a call? He left sick

messages in total. Just so everybody knows her home and it was about his work, in these cellular industry, in repairing in mitigating issues in doing all sorts of things to install the infrastructure, that we depend on to you, These tiny little mobile devices, the one they are probably listening to this on right now and my goodness so strongly about it s so strongly against the concept that over nineteen or corrode virus could have anything whatsoever to do with five g as well. The concept of five g itself, is somehow more dangerous than in the other l versions that have existed in the past have got. Some notes from him by just on the face of

of what he is saying, how do you? How do you guys react to it? Well, first, off ed from can Ok, thank you. So much for calling in I can infirm all the research that I found shows that there is a clear disconnect there from the way that covered operates. Five g wouldn't do anything to help or to hinder it It is fascinating because noodle coverage in IRAN should write of related viruses, baby. Novel, but novel the way that lake police, Academy for is the fourth and best police account You know what I mean is it some new thing that needs fight Gee. However Ed. You hit on a fantastic point that I want to go back to either now or in the future, which is there is a conspiracy related to five g and covert, and that can spirit.

It is true, spread this information about the two and that can spheres. Is taking place by on a state level. It is a state spots, conspiracy. Theory is propagated by the russian government. That is in my mind? Conclusive! That's really really interesting, just two the council that it could be Russia, your it is Russia spreading it, two to one end, exactly two to breed justice. Austin CHAOS I suppose that would be one of the primary reasons right too weak in your enemy in some way. Right The idea of asymmetrical information warfare is, it gives you a lot of bang fear back if you can't come back. Military. What was once called the normal ways of waging war, in our earlier conversations about the. The kind of reasoning it goes into russian foreign policy. We taught them

a bit about a book called foundations of geopolitics. There's a guy who is kind of like Alex Jones. If people in governed paid attention to Alex Jones and followed his advice. He was very popular Russia for a time he influenced the lot of military thinking, the one of the big missions. Information warfare against the. U S! you stand against the west in in Europe as well. Is too fraction and divide the conversation. So the same, the same operation? That's propagating these myths, that, just don't add up everything we know about five g and everything we know about viruses there also propagating and disseminating information about freedom, like their aiding and abetting supremacist groups right eye. Of all stripe, some all types and

The reason for this is to ultimately format. Domestic unrest, this conspiracy he's been incredibly successful in the United Kingdom, where people have literally been burning down five, He towers because they feel that they are they are propagating covered. Nineteen as you know, a profound, this article beggars was a radio peace in and pr this time the anatomy of a covered nineteen conspiracy in a kind of starts with this notion that you know this was something that was created by global elites like bill gates, etc. That will, in order to force

to get vaccinations that are implanted with tracking ships that are then activated by five g technology, and then the only reason that we have to stand six feet apart is cause. That's the military protocol distance, for which you know, people can accurately be scanned the system and it is kind of escalates from there and then because more and more bonkers, and where did come from, though the whole five g thing like edges, felt he it was just out of the clear blue sky. I know there was a twitter account. That was stab wished early on, that was spreading a lot of these devices information called at five g corona virus nineteen, which sent out about three hundred tweets and just seven days and then was deactivated. That is that, the origin that you guys are familiar with the where, whereas this common all do. I remember when we talk to David Ike and I think we mention his own episode previously, but when we spoke with David. I, like the last thing that he said to us before

we finished the discussion with him was that fire, but he told five g and how dangerous it is and heads coming, the new world or order is coming to enslave us with Ivy yeah that's actually memory, Matt, you're right and I was sort of like a teaser re of a shape of things to come, but by a power really that's what I'm saying is it he? He was afraid then- and there were rumours about five g in its dangers, then far far before career. Virus was ever a thing to worry about it. We ethical point. Yes, a fear of technology in a way and is something we see with any other rule out of technology right when people were what we see any roll out, because people way less concerned about x rays than they should have been there train or feed it shoe stores as a novelty by but- think we see that we ve seen other concerns with cell phones,

Cell phones and general ruled out right, and there were the year we can fully dismiss people's valid concerns about five g in general, because the technology doesnt have longitudinal studies. We know that a lot of the alarm is about. It is just that alarm ism, but There is an interesting thing. I wanted to try everybody's attention to the work of a hot word sociologists named Kathleen Coralie, I should made some great progress on studying the spread of this, information. First off Leon the german nation of this kind of story is active he obscured usually right and they think about. If you're right puppeteer in propaganda campaign. You want to work through different proxies, Kathleen Carly found, not only does false news seem to travel about six times faster on social media than real news.

Real news is a little less exciting, but shells who found that in nineteen related activity on Twitter said. Deeper sense of it was conducted by bots seventy percent forty fibres. And of the accounts were information about covert nineteen also Botz, so there's something something. Thinking in the twitter sphere there we know whose about you guys. Ed, I'm gonna give you run down of the rest of the stuff that he told me about a gay. I, too he's in working in this field for twenty years, he is the original radios dead or on the cell towers that were used for EL tee when LP technology was first really entered, stir he was. He was a part of that and what they're doing now, at least with the company for which he works they are

in the same old radios and just changing them a little bit for them to work with the five g. Technology, because ultimately, is just changing the wavelengths at which these things are going to be transmitting lease. The big ones you look a little deeper into five g, realise that there are three separate bandwidth essentially in which they function. The one that you'll hear a lot about is the high frequency ones and That's where you have to be really closer, relatively close to the radio emitter to actually get the technology to function, but he's working on at least understanding after speaking with that he's king on the big radios, the broadcasters centrally, that are, on the large towers, that you have to climb up the dude Klein's like two hundred to four hundred feet just on every day job. Just you saying that out me like Vertigo, but he is physically. Ah, unlike strap

to these giant antenna and climbing up and getting hit Jerome glee, with these way the technology, the radio waves in the freak, the door F, essentially, interference is hitting him and he said, he's never been sick because of any other stuff here, been literally installing the five g and changing the Tec to make it five g and he's feeling sick at all and he's been right in front of the things do they have to wear any kind of shielding at all or, like anything, you know, I would think eat just even if you know it wasn't like proven to cause cancer, which I'm not saying it is I'm saying that level of of electromagnetic whatever it is you They would where something too to shield their innerds from it. Now now it's you have to be careful, If you're gonna stand right in front of a few of the different ones that you can encounter when you go up on those intended, because their several alleged crimes are several different types.

Of emitters that are on those things. There are fewer have to be careful of. He said he got sick one time from an F M radio. Emitter actual interesting ha, and it's just because he happened. You happen to be transferred. So, strongly that when he, first arrived to the site. He in the guy he was there with. They could hear radio station coming through the steel leg of the antenna as about the climate, but that's like here in Atlanta, the georgian state emitters. Ethel. I forget how many watts it is at the Jesus, you, which is now and pr station they worry us Tiberius. They transmit at a very high rate there very powerful and with some weird stuff can happen with that transmission of couple last things a promise he did say there is war the thing you need to be careful with when you're using one

to G three four or five g technology, and he said That's where you keep your phone, he said You ve got an antenna in your phone, whatever you're using, and that thing just like sell tower up. There is broadcasting big, there's a there's, a feedback loop or there's an information loop, that's occurring in it times. Your phone is broad. Asking through that antenna. He said just don't huh lit up to your ear. You know like a phone and dont even in your pocket near here, stuff you're, Australia, you're, Australia. He said because that is genuinely dangerous. That's what he said this way. We will do so. He said phone is problematic, but the giant emitters are harmless. That is any sense at all easy. According to add, it has to do with proximity all of this to do with proximity and that's

you can come into problems because its broadcasting, just you know everywhere in all directions at all times, and that is a type of radiation so now One thing, I think, is incredible: important here about your conversation with Ed is the the busting there about radio, big radio frequency. Because that's something that I think a lot of our astute listeners tuned into Poor choice of words, maybe there's a way. The radio waves that I hear in my car that That is dangerous, as opposed to a cell phone, and then you nailed it with the conversation about proximity, as As we know, the science today assures us that the radiation cellphones give off a low energy type of radiation, the lower end of the spectrum. That means it's safe, than the high energy radiation like X, rays or gamma rays,

we are a high enough energy to give off. What's called ionizing radiation they can I and Adam or a molecule why's that important, because that means it can damage cell dna why's that important, because that can lead to cancer Aref is not powerful enough to do that. But again, you know as a as a lay person you're, not an expert, thinking general. It's just it's just smart not to have electronics by your unmentionable sure. I don't think your brain ache or your brain yet so benches to just to clarify for me. So it's about the size of the way of right, like smaller waves, can go inside you, unlike disrupt tissue, whereas our F is larger, a larger waves in his is the deal with gee, like what differentiates. Five g from forgery is the size of the wave or is it like the the means of transmission? I've always been a little foggy on that too. There's a thing you're going

year bandied about all of the place online right now and that is millimeter wave technology you're gonna hear that a lot in five g considered this millimeter wave technology. But again, as we were concerned about earlier, five g can function on several different bandwidth. I think it's twenty eight gig. It is the high band, that's the one that is potentially the the version that a long time ago, when we may that episode, we cited it as being potentially dangerous, depending on how close you are too it again, its proximity and I would say, there's also longitudinal studies that We would need to have a hundred percent science blights. Another big myth, ed from in Turkey. I hope you appreciate as posting this one too five jeez, not some new magic thing.

Five g the frequencies that are used in what's been called five g had been used in the past for plenty of other stuff like t tell Jim broadcast right so Five g is unsafe, then I ve has been unsafe for decades. You know what I mean does this to do with the elimination of like television broadcast over the air. That's why I able to come in ok in the air I've got to me as in basically the frequencies this kind of shifted hands where the police band, radio or the least, radio bands changed with another thing. Because the television bans went digital and they this kind of shifted who gets to use what at what frequencies? That's interesting, yeah accept member when that happened. There is definitely talk of some things to come: I guess we're really kind of sea and now interesting, so laughing

just say about it. Is they who was tremendously good to hear from somebody who actually does a thing and understands the technology because he has to because he installs limit fixes them? It was tremendously you hear from him dead in twenty years of experience he has had nothing, but why in time where he felt a little sick because he was right up against this giant, FM radio, emitter cause you literally there an industry Consequently, I wasn't trying to question your Europe description of getting sick from the transmitters but potentially be careful with the phone. I think I misunderstood activity aspect of that when Matt was talking about in the first place, but yeah super appreciate the insider info here. So thanks so much Ed from Kentucky I love, I love, see pupils names, air whither from so thank you.

Or to mean in this house like you, are very familiar with audio messages as well as their delivery. So thanks for turning into stuff, they don't want you to know, out of all the right of all the things. We could have done and we hope you keep us in the loop as you see, we're things developing here and Euro Ed, as well as everybody else familiar with. The I've g misinformation and disinformation out there. We in. Let us know your first hand. Experience is invaluable and with that were going to take a quick word, from our sponsor, but will be right back with another message from you did you know I go now offering an extra fifteen percent credit on car and motorcycle policies. That's fifteen percent! On top of what Geico could already save you. So what are you waiting for your dentist to actually believe? and your flashing everyday, absolutely great

you're coming down in her sweet. Of course. Wonderful, then matter even to look in their great z. In six months, there has never been a better time to switch to Gaga save an extra fifteen percent when you switch by October, seventh limitations apply visit, Geico Duck, offer details,

I've got great school questions in a million dollars. They give away our use martyr than a bed. Greater, let's go get ready. One of the most popular game shows of all time is coming to audio up as a pot gas, it's easier staring shawl on a planet. All these grownups have to do is answer grade school level, questions and prove that they are smarter than a fifth greater rests in your hope, you're wrong on somebody whose hands probably smell, like played its easier stop funding suffer most embarrassing game show ever are used more than a fifth greater licit on the ice are radio, an apple pod casts or where ever you get. Your podcast

men were back and we're going to continue in our corona virus theme. Here, I'm specific The corona virus conspiracies I mention that peace on and pr the kind of detail, the anatomy and the breakdown of how these conspiracies sort of flow

and we have a call from an anonymous listener who had a question about another. One of those guys are really love the show I've been hampered by the arm- and I am I figured after hearing the episode uncovered nineteen and on its recent developments in the? U S, I would just a couple of ideas I kinda mine, you know. Obviously it is a real pandemic. Mp, all, unfortunately, are becoming seriously ill depending on their agent demographic. Could this have possibly then a bio attack internalized as a result of what was going on in Hong Kong, and maybe this was some response from the government there that the possible idea- and then the other minor jarring thing about this pandemic- is how much coverages garden in comparison to other previous.

I make that arguably have had more drastic and more devastating results. I don't wanna discredit. You know anyone to this. If we know someone who's been infected or those who have been infected, just some food for thought- and I hope everyone involved thanks. So much for the call for first were mainly gonna, just the first when their village wanting to quickly what other pandemics. Is he talking about that? They didn't get as much coverage, I'm confused about what he is referring to and if you look back historically shortly each there was almost a pandemic or was it we know was, but it was of an outbreak, pretty series break for each in one year, Sars for several other, but but I think there is those didn't. This is much more all encompassing because it's just moral encompassing rightly gets lake. Absolutely a pandemic and it is having real ramifications on radio

a day to day activities more so than those did, even if they were technically more deadly out they effectively. Smaller group of people in misreading them known incorrect. Because we get out of the way. The first one, I think is a very interesting question is certainly one that was has been banned. About a bit and it's this idea that could- corona virus. Could I've been a manufactured, purposefully, released sample of bio terrorism. This is something that's that now been kicked around the internet. A lot This came out and we can unequivocally say several things about about. This question is really good. Article on the Washington Post, written by again Dan Cassa Zeta, who is a London based Chemical and biological defence specialist. His way with the? U S, army and the Pentagon, the White House, and also the secret service- and he varies- civically talks about how the

This has had a biological weapons division since the ninety seven is so that's a thing so essentially in. If we were to do this, not that the position is that we did it to other countries to ourselves or anything. We would essentially be breaking our own law, are, we would be going outside of? Are you now programmes that actually exists? Those port part, though, is the logistics of a just. Don't make sense that for that application veto for country to use this as a biological weapons, if that were the case is essentially so communicable that, in his spread just through regular transit and commerce. It just now, there's no way of controlling there's no way of isolating. It adds to the two, only your enemies, and obviously we are seeing this thing spread wide foreign.

I'd into every been possible nation that exists on this planet. You don't want only suddenly Uk Control, if that's your gift, that's your goals. So to answer, I think they are the question you started with. No, yes, fully could be designed as a by a weapon. If the we'll designing, were terrible at their jobs and should fired immediately you mention the Washington Post, article yeah familiar with that when I think that, from a All right and we looked at as we said in a previous episode our series uncovered the issue is communicable right? I think I over use their Fantasia reference with making again, but I would see another issue with. It is the lack of fatalities there right the same old conspiracy war we have heard with people Judging the HIV or AIDS acquired through reach.

We is is itself a bio weapon. The problem is If you want to use a bio weapon than human beings have been doing this for a very, very long time you want to first yeah. You want to address what you're talking about it or what the wash imposed dogma in terms of community ability and targeting capacity, but secondly, want to make sure that it actually incapacitates people and times we can fully being fatal. We think pass taking. You just need the other army to not be able to function and, if you're, in very very villainous you with white? Maybe if you try to wipe a population now For some reason, care killed them all at once. You would want sterilize sterilised and no one has made, far as we know officially. No one has deployed by happen like that. So, if, if cove igniting, it was designed to be a by weapon who is very poor

really designed it's kind of like making, nay it's kind of like, building a pretty good car for a yacht race, right, you won't do very well, once you get off, the shore is bringing a taser. Two new machine gun fight you now yours is better no it's true it and also like I didn't really realize, you know a lot of what we think of in terms of this article makes this point beautifully. In terms of like bio. Terrorism is the dear of unleashing total chaos and annihilation, and just like anarchy like watching the world burned as kill em. All in that doesn't makes sense either it needs to be much more strategic than that and much more like you said, and controllable war. What ok I don't know what to say, things I'm thinking, because I dont want to lead to any more internet rumour or fearmongering or any of that because You talked about a lot of this in the previous.

Episodes as you mentioned then- and I don't want to go too far- to have, but it does feel as though, if an actor estate, actor or even a say, what in within that state wanted to do something that would cripple the current global call me and power players within that global economy. If you create something similar to covert nineteen in the corona virus. That could be effective either, even if it did, your own country and your own economy in the state. We are working if the end goal is to cripple. The. Some of the major players in the global economy, more than you. I guess so that, even if you know, you're gonna, take a bullet to the leg or to the side. You're not gonna, take in any vital organs if it doesn't make sense year- and I think this really good point

because we have to consider the motivations. If there is someone purposefully crafting a weapon as a weapon year, a bio weapon here here then Do they want? They just want to see the world burn so I'm gonna maintain they could have done a better job. It is a horrible diseases leading to death, but- euro again to your point met. Maybe the aim here is just to disrupt not to not to actually kill everyone whose contracting it bites. True that point would also events. Well, I think you're you're making a very fair point. We have to be careful to recognise that there are numerous opportunist who are weapon icing cove, even if it was not meant to be used as a weapon, their weapon, rising it for political aim or their weapon rising it for an, economic opportunity right this country a shut down so conduct three be our factories are still open

You know what I mean like that you don't have to have hatched the conspiracy to create conspiracy. Based on you know what I mean. That's That's my opinion: again, that's hypothetical! We don't! I don't have any if you guys my, but I don't have any proof that there is a that there's that level opportunism going on, but we do know you just to read the news to know that multiple political actors Multiple countries are definitely using covered as as a work for whatever goals they want to accomplish now, as just politics, that's a really good point, the great I think we can take another quick breaker, and then we have one more listener message:

Listen now on the icon, radio apple pie cast over ever you get your pipe casts and we ve returned our last piece of lister correspondence today comes from Abbe with a question that I wanted to bring to your because I feel like this could be a pretty strong few trappers and I'm surprised we haven't talked about it before my name is already a long time. I just wanted to ask if y'all had ever done an episode or any like Youtube about standardized testing, and why I am asking is because I'm about to take the boy exam in D. Yours backer,

The national border guard parameters, because each individual states have gone to to protect and uphold. This example has been insane other still trying to hold it in the middle of a pandemic, and you know now, a lot of state for being very flexible, so I will just gonna see if you guys, had ever done about the food on splintered testing. If you had ever done some investigation into doubt, because it s incredibly for she and really has shown evidence of being on. You know, having discriminatory outcomes are even just from the USA. Tease too, like Highschool standard I tested in everything. So. Thank you thanks for calling in heavy. This is one of those increasingly rare moments for us when we hear a topic and think how the hell are we not covered this over a decade or so doing the show in one form or

another. Now, if you are one of our? U S, listeners, you know exactly what Abbe is talking about. Was standardized testing every time? and, throughout your grade school college, imposed college Greer that you had to sit in the room, get a timer from about like a proctor lift up a pencil or a pen right and you had to read a page that was just these very weird specific instructions about how to take the test, and then you had you know my favorite part of this all scan trying or Bluebook things was all a one page that says this It was intentionally left Blake and it's not Blake this pages intentionally left blink on it you know it's weird. We have not done something about standardized testing I've mentioned in a lot on the air over the years, the problems with defining much less measuring intelligence in the very big

right. We know that the IQ test as a ton of problems We also know that standardized testing often fall short of its Theo article mark. We knew that its aim is vulnerable to corruption, double levels. We to know that their brilliant? fully no hyperbole. There are brilliant people who don't take test. You know what I mean. There's someone who can hear entire, classical composition on piano and they can play it. They could just here at once and play it but maybe they have a really difficult time. Reading written pair after something, perhaps due to Dyslexia, due to some other specific learning ability in that in that cluster and without going into the idea of multiple intelligences and things like that We know that these kind

forms these forms, standardized. Testing can be misused and they can be abused. And we know that they also, there is very, compelling evidence that they play a role in what is sometimes called a performance gap across. We are only one. Demographic of testing in population seems do better or worse than another demographic and hang you don't really know why, because by every other metric students are equal, this is something we have discussed. Couple times with regards to a public. Education verses, I think it was charter schools. Maybe we had a conversation about because of a listener prior to this there was a long time ago? So, This gonna echo, you been to say thank you to a for writing about this. Few go online and search for new issue

with standardized testing problems any whatever key word you wanna use. You will find many of the issues that have been just outlined for you, and its Britain by a lot of times, professionals who have been in the field as you caters for decades, who are just decrying, upright. Doesn't say: hey there, is a better way. There has to be a better way. We just need to get together and, make it happen or change the standards to a different standard of testing. Right here Anders there's one thing that we hit The euro was some of us on the shore, now we have a bit of personal bias, because we have teacher in our personal lives or our families, ones I know that a lot of our fellow listers in the crowd who are working in edge. Patient now. Can one hundred percent agree to is that depending on what part of the world you live in independent. What are the United States? You live in.

These system sometimes emphasizes teaching to the test. The phrase to the test, Is that a lot of these kids may be stuck in this situation, and their instructors may be stuck in a situation where it is more important to learn how to do well on a specific milestone test. Then it is, actually learn the skills being imparted, which is dangerous. You know also why we have cheating scandals right, because there's so much emphasis placed on the importance of these standardize tests that allows the teachers, feel really helpless and they feel like they're, going to lose funding or they're going to lose their jobs if they don't make those numbers, it's all a numbers game. So in Atlanta, secular Lana, public schools, we had a huge cheating scandal. That was systematic, but it was also like you understand where this is coming. From condone it. But it's definitely like the pressure to me. Those quotas, you now is- is immense, so

for anyone who is currently raising a child. Anyone who is currently going through formal schooling where wherein these tasks are critical, I want to give an impact. Full anecdote, there are, unfortunately happens more than once. This is how standards testing can play a huge role in people's lives soon side rates in Japan go up the way when it prince exam season. People will student, we'll take their own lives if they feel they. Have not qualified Weller performed well and also, if we're teaching for a test, if we are teaching a specific performance? That is what attest it's a test as a specific performance. Just like you without being dismissive, because a lot of smart people with the best of intentions have worked standardized testing right. It is t

in a performance or what point do we lose critical thinking and priority eyes. Roped aren t memory position, it's dangerous. At the risk of sounding cliche? The big Nobody tells you about standardize test when you were a kid, is that you don't into them, often in the real world it'll you're, not gonna, be in a lot of situations where all the sudden you a multiple choice, question and you have fifteen minutes to figure out the word problem in people tell you winded, put your pencils up or down the world needs critical thinking and it doesn't memories nation and we do have to have a standard to measure success right, but the opponent of the courage. Standardized testing systems will point out there. They euro their problems were questions about how much they do or don't prepare people for the quota, real world and then

bar exam specifically to the USA, tease to the M and such those are industries. Those are industries that make a huge amount of money. It's the leviathan in the billions, if you like a standardized testing overall, so What is the impetus to change it if the mode of his prophet and we're profiting Iraq the Apple go. What was why rock this can try. So so so is there s a t, prep Reno and like a sea t prep, that's an industry in and of itself. You know of scale but you're right. Those other tests there. Actually that tests themselves are money, king industries as it's, it's really good pointed and think about a billion. Only to your point, then, I feel like all the best stuff that I learned in college. I didn't learning college. I learned on the job I learned is bearing things out. Having the kind of sink or swim, and certainly can't just fake your

through being a lawyer. He definitely need like a wealth of like you know it. Memory information in case law on all that, but energy listing the wondering what the middle ground version of that looks like there is an article on Harvard politics. Darkened is talking about a lot of this in they cite Richard Rocks. As the author of class. And schools. A book that you can find is actually out of stock in several places have looked for, but it really emphasizes what you're talking about their no and bend the prep industry, that is there. The desperate industry cause they're. Still to it there, the books, the actual sir, says that you can pay for it all costs a bunch of money in the early. You can get. Those services is, if you have the dispensable income to spend on those things right and then You realise that what you're actually early According to Eurostat. Will you

actually measuring by. Standardized testing is the. Socio economic status of that school district in that specific school and that's really what it becomes so in, weird way it has more to do with real estate than anything else, no about anything else, but it definitely please a much more pivotal role. Emmy think about this european politician. You want reelected right or your real estate developer, you want to sell some houses, innocent district, resist code, you what a metric if Europe, petition right, where you are superintended you're in the administrative feel you can Just say and be able to just say, anecdotally, heed our kids do pretty well in schools You wanna have a test that

is she appears to have good results, and then you wants to control those results such that they always appear to be, if not great, improving right. The steady as long as I'm in office rate if you are a real estate, if you're involved in the real estate industry, of course, location, location, location, believe that schools and zip codes plea it's your appointment, I hope I didn't soon they play medical role and the value of anyhow. Was even just a plot of land right yeah, I would sue then no, you can probably speak to this before having a child before thinking having a child. Even I never would have considered that way. I live, is not yet Nor can I have anything to do with the house apartment wherever it is, how far away it is from the highway? The number

one factor. Would I be tough we'll sending my child to the public, It was in this area, yeah them but the world know I wasn't they're the ones that are rated low. You look at those numbers and has to do with test scores. Yes, it's scary. When you just see the number that I agree with you, I agree with my doing good enough for my child, but when you realise that numbers ACT has nothing to do with the quality of the teacher, it's true gesture I completely agree it, and so we have her a charter school now and here's the thing to with with everything being online now in her schools, gummy online for at least the first six weeks. If not longer, I wonder in that that some so based on technology and kind standardization and added. I worry that maybe it's going the last one on one and more kind of this high of my and kind of approached it to teaching. Now these are

that related, but you should be soon I'm saying by the concern Adena, its is valid worries me: I'm worried about Colombia stuff. Range times, because, especially we consider too. They know about ass as in socio economic class and opportunities for education, we we see that there is tremendous danger for staff, and soon historically disadvantaged areas to efficient too essentially be run out of schools because I saw many so many places prioritize education in their lip service in their speech to the constituents and treated in the opposite fashion when it comes to the line. Item budget under review, still remember had many many many teachers in my family and I still remember how much

blood, sweat and personal tears. These people put in as individuals just to help kids, because Lee the government in community that was supposed to do. It doesn't come through a better you write back listening now. I bet, if you pick one teacher ones you're out of your entire passed from pre the college and probably grad school and on. I bet you just pick one Detroit random and you ask them if they had to spend out of pocket for their students if they ever had to work hours, they were being paid. I bet you, they will say yes, I can give you an award if you win that that, but I bet you I may even when covered kicked in Edens teacher at the time it was the end of the square and they had a very quickly transition. They lay they cancel the standardized tests that lit because of that whole situation and not being able to prepare, but this teacher

literally ran around town meeting individual students in their parents to give them their packet of like what from homework, and it was like not like you ve, come to her was like she came to you and it was two hours- and it was like me- she does the fact that all the time, calling you know it, certainly muslim. You do for the glory or like the hell the appreciation from mere superiors. You know it's something you do because you your call to do it and in your needed and the real, Lord comes in, like you now seeing kids grow into amazing human beings, so that's it awesome that you can have that kind of influence on kids, but you're right. It's so much of that out of pocket spending on schools applies because budgets are so slashed. You know it's just to bring this all back full circle for this episode.

As we are recording this, there are students across the world across the United States, especially that are getting ready to go back to school, whether virtual or physical. There are, teachers right now. Maybe seeing this while they set up their classroom maybe, while they are thinking about how the heck they're gonna keep themselves and those children safe, in that environment and in a lot of places like here in Atlanta, the visual response to this pandemic is uneven.
