Well, good morning, good afternoon or good evening. Welcome to the Paul Truesdell podcast. My name is Paul Truesdell. It is not Sam farsen. Sam farston has his own podcast in East pajibes, Illinois, so we're not going to talk about that. I'll use my own name. Hey, I'm using a logo shirt. I got a polo shirt that I picked up. Hey, look at that kind of cool. We're doing this both by video and audio. Today I'm drinking my coffee also out of my my fancy corporate mug. On the other side, we got our original family crest lion there. This is episode 501, and I was thinking about, what should we talk about today? And I thought about it a little bit, something came to mind. I thought I would, oh, talk a little bit about something has been bugging me for a long, long time. So let's get into this. And so this is what we're going to do. So what's been bugging me for a long time has been this whole business of climate panic. Go ahead and put the word climate panic, not change, not warming, not cooling, but panic. So let me repeat this. The business of climate panic is a business. No fans or buts about it. Now today, just so you know, in the background, I've got the windows open. Cars may honk their horns. I don't care. I'm not going to do this super professionally. The windows are open and the setting has got the it is what it is. In the background, I've got the greatest hits from Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship plane, and life is good. Weather today in Florida is absolutely phenomenal. So I became suspicious more than a few years ago when I started reading and listening closely to people back in the 1970s explain how the federal government well the level of money that we were spending taxpayer moneys. It just didn't add up. And people well, they were happy to share their projects. They're excited. They were even thankful for getting money back in the 60s and 70s. But I started noticing things were changing. And for example, people who were involved in Wildlife and Parks and zoology, they're always very appreciative. But I noticed something that was happening, and basically it was that these climate programs, those people were mean, they were nasty, and well, suddenly the mood changed. Faces got tight when you started asking about questions. You know, I thought we were getting warmer. I thought we were getting cooler. I thought we needed to recycle. Now we don't need to recycle and and etc. I noticed, you know, eyes would start darting around, and lips would purse, and browsing would furrow, okay. These are all telltale signs that someone is getting ready for, well, a fist fight. I used to pay attention to that years ago, when I had to do police work. Okay, back in the 670s and the early 80s, you know, you could feel the resentment come through the television screen. You could feel it come through the magazines and newspapers back in the day and even on radio. You know, that really told me a lot. And looking at the telltale signs of people means a lot to me. You have verbal and nonverbal communications, and when people get really defensive, to the degree that all these climate panic soothsayers get about how they're spending their money now it's our tax dollars, okay? And well, it seemed to me that people rarely get upset if they're fully transparent and they're coming clean about everything that they're doing. It's kind of like Jesse Jackson in the rainbow coalition, if you question them years ago, oh god. I mean they were going to come after you, like, like, unbelievable. So it is what it is, what it is coffee sip. Now, let's back up a little bit in time and we got Captain green, or what was his name, Captain Kangaroo and Mr. Green jeans, yeah, Al Gore. He is a former United States Senator. If you don't know that, he was also vice president
