Off The Hook - 1989-09-14

[00:17.300 --> 00:49.500]  [SPEAKER_06]: And this is the second one.
[00:55.160 --> 00:55.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: Good morning.
[00:57.420 --> 00:59.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's approximately 3.30.
[01:00.660 --> 01:02.800]  [EVILCORLEY]: The program is out of the shadows.
[01:04.300 --> 01:06.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: But I'm not Don Sheridan.
[01:06.820 --> 01:08.520]  [EVILCORLEY]: This is Emmanuel Goldstein.
[01:08.520 --> 01:14.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: I'm filling in for Don, who will not be here this week because of illness in his family.
[01:15.900 --> 01:18.300]  [EVILCORLEY]: However, we hope he will be back in two weeks.
[01:22.090 --> 01:32.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: Stay with us here on WBAI, listener-supported radio, and we'll be getting into that aspect of it perhaps a little bit later.
[01:36.910 --> 01:42.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: We'll start things off with some music from Vangelis.
[09:57.540 --> 10:04.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that's Vangelis from a record called Heaven and Hell.
[10:05.500 --> 10:11.440]  [EVILCORLEY]: And unfortunately, there are no further titles inside the album.
[10:11.600 --> 10:19.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, I could have, if I sat down and thought about it, I probably could have come up with a hundred good titles for the piece we just heard.
[10:21.540 --> 10:27.520]  [EVILCORLEY]: Really moving, stirring, rather strange music.
[10:28.940 --> 10:39.920]  [EVILCORLEY]: With the willing participation of the English Chamber Choir and lead female vocal by Vanna Verratti.
[10:42.580 --> 10:46.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: Vangelis, with a little help from John Anderson.
[10:46.300 --> 10:48.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't believe on the track that we heard.
[10:48.740 --> 10:50.840]  [EVILCORLEY]: Again, the record is called Heaven and Hell.
[10:50.840 --> 11:03.940]  [EVILCORLEY]: And on the other side of this, you'll find the theme, well, I guess it was before it was a theme, to the TV series Cosmos with Carl Sagan.
[11:05.220 --> 11:06.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yes, that came from Vangelis.
[11:08.060 --> 11:10.800]  [EVILCORLEY]: You're listening to WBAI in New York.
[11:11.020 --> 11:13.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: The time is 19 minutes until 4 o'clock.
[11:14.880 --> 11:17.440]  [EVILCORLEY]: And this is Emmanuel Goldstein.
[11:18.240 --> 11:22.460]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I'm filling in for Don Sheridan tonight, this morning.
[11:23.180 --> 11:28.960]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I've just returned from probably one of the strangest things I've ever done in my life.
[11:30.020 --> 11:35.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: Wandering about aimlessly in a foreign continent for six weeks.
[11:35.640 --> 11:37.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: All by myself.
[11:39.440 --> 11:50.300]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I've returned with a totally different perception and way of looking at things, which I guess I kind of knew would happen when I got back.
[11:50.400 --> 11:55.720]  [EVILCORLEY]: But how can you know what it's really like until you've been through it?
[11:55.900 --> 12:03.300]  [EVILCORLEY]: How can you know how you will see things differently until you go through that entire stage and actually see things differently?
[12:03.300 --> 12:07.300]  [EVILCORLEY]: And feel things differently and hear things differently.
[12:07.580 --> 12:09.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's quite incredible.
[12:10.420 --> 12:14.460]  [EVILCORLEY]: And something I highly recommend to anybody.
[12:14.780 --> 12:15.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: Anybody.
[12:16.420 --> 12:26.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just go out there and wander around a little bit and stop worrying so much about where you have to be at a certain time.
[12:27.920 --> 12:31.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, my theory is there's always a way out of it somehow.
[12:32.320 --> 12:39.040]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, true, I might be paying for this for a good long time, but, uh, I learned quite a bit.
[12:39.200 --> 12:43.260]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I'll try to share some of that as the evening goes on.
[12:44.400 --> 12:47.320]  [EVILCORLEY]: Right now I'm just going to try to settle back.
[12:49.000 --> 12:50.360]  [EVILCORLEY]: Back in my own backyard.
[12:51.560 --> 12:52.760]  [EVILCORLEY]: Oh, (((Al Jolson))).
[12:55.000 --> 12:56.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: What memories this brings back.
[12:56.500 --> 12:59.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: Memories I've never had, but good ones nonetheless.
[13:07.970 --> 14:08.750]  [SPEAKER_11]: The bird with feathers of blue Is waiting for you Back in your own backyard You'll see your castle in Spain Through your windowpane Back in your own backyard Oh, you can go to the east Go to the west Someday you'll come Weary at heart Back where you started from You'll find your happiness lies Right under your eyes Back in your own backyard Oh,
[14:36.460 --> 15:06.900]  [SPEAKER_11]: you can go to the east Go to the west Someday you'll come Weary at heart Back where you started from You'll find your happiness lies Right under your eyes Back in your own backyard Somewhere
[15:13.130 --> 15:27.770]  [SPEAKER_16]: over the rainbow Way up high There's a wind that I heard watching a lullaby.
[15:29.130 --> 15:36.390]  [SPEAKER_16]: Somewhere over the rainbow, we're upon.
[15:38.150 --> 15:45.030]  [SPEAKER_16]: There's a wind that I watched a lullaby.
[15:45.030 --> 15:52.470]  [SPEAKER_16]: Some day I'll watch upon a star wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
[15:53.070 --> 15:57.390]  [SPEAKER_16]: Where troubles smell like rain and dry away above the hay.
[15:58.210 --> 16:06.430]  [SPEAKER_16]: Away above the... my chimney top will affect me.
[16:08.430 --> 16:12.390]  [SPEAKER_16]: Somewhere over the rainbow,
[16:17.210 --> 16:23.950]  [SPEAKER_16]: there's a wind that I heard a wind that I watched a lullaby.
[16:25.150 --> 16:32.530]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's happy little boobers fighting on the way, but why, oh, why can't I?
[16:47.390 --> 16:48.710]  [SPEAKER_08]: Fireing party!
[16:49.210 --> 16:49.830]  [SPEAKER_28]: Ready!
[16:49.970 --> 16:51.170]  [SPEAKER_28]: Sycamore is open.
[16:51.910 --> 16:52.390]  [SPEAKER_08]: Aim!
[16:53.110 --> 16:53.690]  [SPEAKER_28]: Fire!
[16:54.490 --> 16:56.090]  [SPEAKER_28]: That's how Sycamore opened.
[16:58.370 --> 17:00.610]  [SPEAKER_28]: That's how Sycamore is.
[17:00.970 --> 17:01.450]  [SPEAKER_28]: Guns.
[17:02.650 --> 17:07.170]  [SPEAKER_28]: I say this somewhat quietly, and without fanfare, because...
[17:07.170 --> 17:09.370]  [SPEAKER_03]: How are you voting on the gun initiative?
[17:10.270 --> 17:10.950]  [SPEAKER_28]: Well...
[17:10.950 --> 17:11.870]  [SPEAKER_03]: I'm against it.
[17:12.170 --> 17:19.730]  [SPEAKER_28]: Because people who like their living green and private don't usually appreciate a lot of fluttering flags and cartwheeling clowns.
[17:20.790 --> 17:25.870]  [SPEAKER_27]: There are 17 million adults in California, and an estimated 4 million handguns.
[17:26.530 --> 17:28.050]  [SPEAKER_27]: But that's not fair.
[17:29.070 --> 17:35.470]  [SPEAKER_27]: When no more can be sold, you can see that the majority of adults will be virtually prohibited from ever owning one.
[17:35.890 --> 17:37.890]  [SPEAKER_28]: When this vacation land is sold out...
[17:38.470 --> 17:39.350]  [SPEAKER_27]: That's right.
[17:40.490 --> 17:43.830]  [SPEAKER_27]: Did you know it gives some people a special property right?
[17:44.370 --> 17:47.970]  [SPEAKER_03]: You mean my neighbor can have something legally that I can?
[17:48.730 --> 17:52.110]  [SPEAKER_28]: So, if you've always admired parts of Piedmont or Orinda...
[17:52.730 --> 17:58.630]  [SPEAKER_27]: Well, you could buy one, if you can convince someone to sell you his, and if you're willing to pay his price.
[17:59.070 --> 18:02.370]  [SPEAKER_28]: ...and regret you didn't buy there 10 or 15 years ago.
[18:03.370 --> 18:05.490]  [SPEAKER_28]: Sycamore should have considerable appeal.
[18:06.110 --> 18:06.970]  [SPEAKER_27]: That's right.
[18:07.490 --> 18:10.150]  [SPEAKER_28]: It is a custom community of personalized guns.
[18:10.870 --> 18:14.290]  [SPEAKER_28]: For the private pleasure of a limited number of families.
[18:14.670 --> 18:18.190]  [SPEAKER_27]: It allows people who already own handguns to keep them.
[18:18.970 --> 18:25.790]  [SPEAKER_28]: After all, you aren't going to find a finished big blue mountain lake in California that isn't full of boats and people.
[18:27.890 --> 18:29.290]  [SPEAKER_28]: And surrounded by cars.
[18:30.190 --> 18:32.130]  [SPEAKER_28]: This opening is just the beginning...
[18:33.030 --> 18:35.590]  [SPEAKER_28]: ...of something people will want to Sunday drive through...
[18:35.590 --> 18:37.170]  [SPEAKER_28]: ...for the next couple of hundred years.
[19:03.300 --> 19:04.600]  [SPEAKER_09]: 3-2-1-0!
[19:04.600 --> 19:06.360]  [SPEAKER_16]: Dipset, trash bags, shot of boot, glass!
[19:06.510 --> 19:08.080]  [SPEAKER_16]: Dimp, white, drag, light, grease and chrome!
[19:08.450 --> 19:10.160]  [SPEAKER_16]: To pump up our universal bearing!
[19:10.360 --> 19:11.180]  [SPEAKER_16]: Carry on, right, shoot!
[19:11.380 --> 19:11.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: Shotgun, slower!
[19:21.310 --> 19:22.370]  [SPEAKER_16]: 3-2-1-0!
[19:22.510 --> 19:24.110]  [SPEAKER_16]: X-ray, air, boost oil, eerie, rag!
[19:24.330 --> 19:25.810]  [SPEAKER_16]: Fence out, flywheel, left, arrest!
[19:26.230 --> 19:27.870]  [SPEAKER_16]: Track, shaft, tire, jack, rear, view, mirror!
[19:28.110 --> 19:30.010]  [SPEAKER_16]: While, spring, business, spring, purple, phone, dice!
[19:31.990 --> 19:32.350]  [SPEAKER_16]: CAR!
[19:40.710 --> 19:41.790]  [SPEAKER_16]: 3-2-1-0!
[19:41.870 --> 19:43.570]  [SPEAKER_16]: Black, dot, needle, round, dashboard, padding!
[19:43.830 --> 19:45.430]  [SPEAKER_16]: Upcap, down, fire, retail, wafer!
[19:45.610 --> 19:47.870]  [SPEAKER_16]: Click and land, radio, dial, front...
[20:05.010 --> 20:06.100]  [SPEAKER_16]: 3-2-1-0!
[20:06.160 --> 20:09.600]  [SPEAKER_16]: Runder, holes, marker, belt, digital, speedometer, spy, blood, gas, cap, cigarette, lighter!
[20:09.990 --> 20:11.240]  [SPEAKER_16]: Headrest, speed, thread, registration!
[20:11.860 --> 20:13.510]  [SPEAKER_16]: Floor, man, firewall, accelerator, bro, cover, and a bumper sticker that says...
[20:49.660 --> 20:51.720]  [SPEAKER_09]: You know how they're cops if they're on me.
[20:56.520 --> 20:58.520]  [SPEAKER_09]: Now I can't say exactly what they know.
[23:48.320 --> 23:50.600]  [SPEAKER_18]: I got some...
[23:51.900 --> 23:54.660]  [SPEAKER_18]: Just got homes...
[23:57.570 --> 23:58.810]  [SPEAKER_18]: Got Cherokee...
[23:59.450 --> 24:03.270]  [SPEAKER_18]: Drive the bus, I've left the bus, the cars chasing me...
[24:03.270 --> 24:03.830]  [SPEAKER_18]: I passed...
[24:04.550 --> 24:05.810]  [SPEAKER_18]: She looked fine...
[24:06.510 --> 24:08.950]  [SPEAKER_15]: She said that she was mine...
[24:09.870 --> 24:10.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: She was cute...
[24:11.610 --> 24:12.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: Torched my suit...
[24:13.730 --> 24:15.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: And that's the bottom line...
[24:15.810 --> 24:19.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: It's a mad man's world in America...
[24:20.570 --> 24:22.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: Jump back at myself...
[24:24.470 --> 24:26.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: Please, please, please, in America...
[24:27.970 --> 24:29.810]  [SPEAKER_15]: Straight into hell...
[24:33.440 --> 24:34.600]  [SPEAKER_18]: Talkin' spook...
[24:34.600 --> 24:36.820]  [SPEAKER_18]: The FBI, the CIA...
[24:36.820 --> 24:38.300]  [SPEAKER_18]: And the Russians too...
[24:52.550 --> 24:54.610]  [SPEAKER_16]: Please, please, please, in America...
[24:56.110 --> 24:59.630]  [SPEAKER_16]: Threat, way, way too hell...
[24:59.630 --> 25:01.610]  [SPEAKER_16]: Life can be flights in America...
[25:02.370 --> 25:04.970]  [SPEAKER_16]: Yes, we can fight in America...
[25:12.530 --> 25:16.010]  [SPEAKER_18]: I keep chasing my case.
[25:17.030 --> 25:18.890]  [SPEAKER_18]: Leaving your way.
[25:23.360 --> 25:26.220]  [SPEAKER_15]: They say I shot the bed.
[25:27.180 --> 25:30.360]  [SPEAKER_15]: It's a mad, mad world in America.
[25:31.180 --> 25:33.160]  [SPEAKER_15]: Trump back in myself.
[25:34.280 --> 25:37.360]  [SPEAKER_16]: Please, please, please in America.
[25:37.360 --> 25:40.300]  [SPEAKER_16]: They say they need to have.
[25:40.800 --> 25:42.120]  [SPEAKER_14]: Keep up on me.
[25:42.540 --> 25:43.980]  [SPEAKER_14]: Can't jump in the air.
[25:44.740 --> 25:46.460]  [SPEAKER_14]: Jump back in my car.
[25:47.040 --> 25:48.960]  [SPEAKER_14]: Good for that level, drop me.
[25:49.840 --> 25:50.860]  [SPEAKER_14]: Try to back me down.
[25:52.060 --> 25:53.980]  [SPEAKER_14]: So power, knock me out.
[25:54.820 --> 25:56.480]  [SPEAKER_18]: I got some.
[25:58.340 --> 25:59.900]  [SPEAKER_18]: Just got home.
[26:01.980 --> 26:03.360]  [SPEAKER_18]: Take two kills.
[26:06.480 --> 26:08.260]  [SPEAKER_14]: But she love me still.
[26:08.260 --> 26:12.460]  [SPEAKER_14]: It's a mad, mad world in America.
[26:13.040 --> 26:15.260]  [SPEAKER_14]: Trump back in myself.
[26:16.640 --> 26:19.460]  [SPEAKER_14]: Please, please, please in America.
[26:20.260 --> 26:22.340]  [SPEAKER_16]: Slipping into hell.
[26:44.000 --> 26:45.720]  [SPEAKER_18]: I got some.
[26:46.900 --> 26:48.900]  [SPEAKER_18]: I'm super fat.
[26:51.450 --> 26:53.470]  [SPEAKER_18]: Living in America.
[26:54.770 --> 26:56.150]  [SPEAKER_15]: Sure can.
[26:56.390 --> 26:57.970]  [SPEAKER_15]: Sure does driving the land.
[26:58.490 --> 27:01.550]  [SPEAKER_15]: It's a mad, mad world in America.
[27:02.150 --> 27:04.270]  [SPEAKER_15]: Trump back in myself.
[27:05.610 --> 27:08.550]  [SPEAKER_14]: Please, please, please in America.
[27:09.230 --> 27:11.370]  [SPEAKER_14]: Slipping into hell.
[27:38.290 --> 27:41.090]  [SPEAKER_15]: I'm sorry.
[27:42.270 --> 27:46.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, the man said he was sorry, and I think that's good enough for me.
[27:46.890 --> 27:50.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: James Brown, brand new from Big Audio Dynamite.
[27:50.290 --> 27:56.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that is the extended club single version of that particular tune.
[27:57.050 --> 28:13.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: And if you like Big Audio Dynamite, stick around, because I did an interview with him while I was over in London, and I have some rather rare material, so you might actually want to get your tape recorders ready, because some of this stuff is not even on vinyl anywhere,
[28:13.210 --> 28:15.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: or CD, or anything like that.
[28:16.050 --> 28:18.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: So we'll get to that a little bit later.
[28:18.190 --> 28:24.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: We also heard from Negativland, which is a conglomeration of people.
[28:24.390 --> 28:28.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: I almost hesitate to call it a group, because they're just so strange.
[28:29.030 --> 28:31.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: Negativland with three things, actually.
[28:31.750 --> 28:34.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: Over the Hiccups, and, of course, Sycamore.
[28:35.370 --> 28:37.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: Nice public service announcement for that.
[28:38.310 --> 28:41.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that was topped off with Car Bomb.
[28:41.790 --> 28:48.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: The record actually comes with a little bumper sticker that says Car Bomb on it, and I just don't have the heart to put it on a car.
[28:48.370 --> 28:50.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: I want to save it for a special occasion.
[28:50.710 --> 28:51.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't quite know what.
[28:51.490 --> 29:00.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, of course, Al Jolson up on top, here, on WBAI, listener-supported non-commercial radio.
[29:00.790 --> 29:03.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, about that listener support.
[29:03.870 --> 29:06.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need listener support.
[29:06.170 --> 29:07.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: Why do we need listener support?
[29:07.830 --> 29:09.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, it keeps us on the air.
[29:11.630 --> 29:21.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: And while other stations have commercials to keep them going, we need our listeners to keep us going.
[29:21.970 --> 29:26.330]  [EVILCORLEY]: Every last listener has a say in this station.
[29:26.330 --> 29:37.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: We listen to your opinions, and you just don't get that kind of back and forth with a commercial radio station.
[29:37.290 --> 29:47.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we are interested in what our listeners have to say, both in a particular program and in our programming in general.
[29:47.630 --> 29:52.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: So we would like to hear from you at this point, pledging your support.
[29:52.370 --> 29:59.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: For $45, you can receive the WBAI program guide, known as the Folio, for a year.
[29:59.630 --> 30:07.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: However, that's 11 issues, I believe, and that will be sent right to your door, or post office box, or wherever you want us to send it.
[30:07.730 --> 30:10.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: You can even take out a gift subscription for somebody else.
[30:10.770 --> 30:12.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: But we need to hear from you.
[30:12.130 --> 30:16.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need to raise money so that we can keep going, keep bringing you alternative programming.
[30:17.990 --> 30:22.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: And if you listen to this radio station, you know that we bring you things at other radio stations.
[30:24.850 --> 30:27.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, can't isn't the right word.
[30:27.510 --> 30:29.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: Won't is more appropriate.
[30:29.490 --> 30:30.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: And why won't they?
[30:30.710 --> 30:34.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because there's no money in it for them.
[30:35.990 --> 30:40.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, if you want us to just have programs that will make a profit for us,
[30:43.710 --> 30:46.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: then you're not listening to us for the right reason, I guess.
[30:47.770 --> 31:08.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: But if you want programs that are produced without regard for how they will do in ratings, and all that kind of garbage that FM radio has become, if that means something to you, if an alternative is important to you, pick up your phone and give us a call.
[31:08.370 --> 31:17.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: call 212-279-3400 and pledge your support to WBAI.
[31:17.330 --> 31:23.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: We are earnestly in need of people's support to keep us going.
[31:24.630 --> 31:30.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we also want to hear your comments on how we're doing.
[31:30.710 --> 31:39.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: In the words of a former mayor, I believe, 212-279-3400.
[31:39.170 --> 31:44.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: It would also make me feel good to see the phones light up and make me think that people are indeed out there.
[31:44.210 --> 31:53.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, you know, the folks that listen to the radio at this time of night, you may not know this, but you take a lot of heat.
[31:53.230 --> 31:58.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: A lot of people say, oh, only space cadets are out there listening at this particular time.
[31:58.410 --> 32:00.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: In fact, most people don't even listen at all.
[32:00.190 --> 32:00.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I know that's not true.
[32:00.970 --> 32:09.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: I know there's people out there working and driving and doing all those marvelous little things that life enables us to do.
[32:10.610 --> 32:16.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: And all we're asking is that you do one more thing, one more marvelous thing, and it will make you feel good.
[32:16.670 --> 32:19.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's something I can guarantee, because I've done this myself.
[32:20.370 --> 32:21.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's kind of like...
[32:21.870 --> 32:22.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, it's a lot like voting.
[32:23.490 --> 32:33.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: Those of you who voted yesterday, you know, when you come out of the polls, especially when it's for the first time, you feel a certain kind of a glow all over.
[32:34.070 --> 32:37.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: I saw a picture in the paper yesterday, I believe.
[32:37.430 --> 32:45.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yeah, it had to be yesterday, of someone leaving the polls, a homeless person, who had been enabled to vote.
[32:46.030 --> 32:48.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: He'd been allowed to vote for the first time.
[32:50.270 --> 32:59.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it was just such an incredible look of happiness on his face, actually succeeding, actually going in there and voting for the person he wanted to vote for.
[33:00.350 --> 33:05.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: And what a struggle he had been through as a homeless person, just getting the right to vote.
[33:06.450 --> 33:14.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: Something that most of us have overlooked, because it's become routine, so routine that we often don't do it.
[33:16.310 --> 33:23.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: I've seen the same happiness on a retarded person who was allowed to vote.
[33:24.050 --> 33:28.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's kind of criminal that we should even say allowed to vote.
[33:28.130 --> 33:30.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: Everybody is allowed to vote in this country.
[33:30.870 --> 33:32.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's the way it's supposed to be.
[33:33.630 --> 33:36.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: But how does this all relate to WBAI, you might ask.
[33:36.710 --> 33:45.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: Okay, you get that same feeling of satisfaction when you show your support for something that you value.
[33:45.810 --> 33:47.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: And when you know that you're helping.
[33:47.730 --> 33:50.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: And believe me, every little bit helps.
[33:50.590 --> 33:59.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: And every big bit helps, but every little bit helps both financially and as a form of moral support for us.
[34:01.230 --> 34:06.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we want to hear from the folks who are out there listening to late night radio.
[34:06.630 --> 34:10.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: We want to know that the radio means something to you.
[34:11.490 --> 34:12.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: So give us a call.
[34:12.690 --> 34:15.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[34:17.070 --> 34:19.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: All that roundabout speech still hasn't paid off.
[34:19.650 --> 34:21.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: Not one phone call has come in.
[34:21.470 --> 34:30.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: So please don't make me look like a fool and have our volunteers inside give them something to do.
[34:30.890 --> 34:32.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[34:32.950 --> 34:39.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's not a whole lot to ask as far as money.
[34:39.750 --> 34:43.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: It amounts to pennies a day, I believe, less than buying a newspaper.
[34:45.250 --> 34:49.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: And again, you will feel a part of this radio station.
[34:50.110 --> 34:53.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[34:54.330 --> 34:57.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's four minutes after four o'clock.
[34:58.230 --> 35:02.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: And you are tuned to WBAI in New York.
[35:03.550 --> 35:05.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Listener-supported Pacifica Radio.
[35:07.350 --> 35:17.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: And as I've said before, I've just gotten back from six weeks of wandering around in a foreign continent.
[35:18.470 --> 35:19.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: Boy, what a strange experience.
[35:20.330 --> 35:29.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: Never having done something like that before in my life, it's marvelous to have to just be able to do this.
[35:29.490 --> 35:33.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just be able to get on a plane and for a very low price.
[35:33.750 --> 35:37.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: If you look around, you can find very low fares.
[35:37.850 --> 35:41.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: And you don't have to worry about paying for the rest of your life for this.
[35:41.430 --> 35:43.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: If you're willing to be flexible about it.
[35:43.830 --> 35:46.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I traveled on standby.
[35:46.370 --> 35:49.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, that's a word of horror for most people.
[35:49.450 --> 35:52.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: But it wasn't so bad.
[35:53.490 --> 35:54.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was kind of an adventure.
[35:55.030 --> 35:56.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, my plane was six hours late.
[35:57.030 --> 35:57.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: Okay, big deal.
[35:58.150 --> 36:02.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: I got to explore Kennedy Airport for, you know, six hours.
[36:02.630 --> 36:03.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Most people wouldn't like that.
[36:04.010 --> 36:07.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: But I kind of forced myself to have fun.
[36:07.150 --> 36:08.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: But the important thing was I made it.
[36:08.790 --> 36:09.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: I made it over there.
[36:09.690 --> 36:12.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: And there I was, standing in London.
[36:13.330 --> 36:14.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: London, England.
[36:14.230 --> 36:15.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: The place I had heard so much about.
[36:15.630 --> 36:17.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: The place I had seen on television.
[36:17.270 --> 36:20.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I found out when I got there, it really exists.
[36:20.370 --> 36:25.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, you never really know until you're there that this place is really here.
[36:26.490 --> 36:27.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know what I mean?
[36:27.370 --> 36:27.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's...
[36:28.370 --> 36:29.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: They drive on the other side of the road.
[36:29.990 --> 36:32.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: And they talk in those strange accents.
[36:33.170 --> 36:35.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's just like on TV.
[36:36.130 --> 36:37.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it is just like on TV.
[36:37.710 --> 36:41.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: Everybody in England seems to have a very well-developed sense of humor.
[36:41.970 --> 36:49.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Everybody from a subway clerk to a teller at a bank to the operator on the telephones.
[36:51.150 --> 36:53.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: They all have a rather...
[36:54.210 --> 37:01.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: much more relaxed way of speaking to you than their counterparts here in the States.
[37:03.390 --> 37:09.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: Again, a sense of humor and just an overall pleasant feeling that I got from them.
[37:09.830 --> 37:11.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't know how an English person would feel.
[37:12.090 --> 37:13.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: Probably just the opposite.
[37:14.210 --> 37:20.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: And one place that that I was able to go to that I was very happy to go to was a pirate radio station.
[37:21.890 --> 37:24.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's something that we don't have very many of here.
[37:25.690 --> 37:34.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it would certainly make it more interesting, I guess, on the radio front if there were some more independent-type radio stations.
[37:34.270 --> 37:41.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: But, you see, the difference is in England the FM dial only has five radio stations.
[37:41.270 --> 37:42.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: This is in London.
[37:43.050 --> 37:46.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, you know, it gets even less in other cities.
[37:46.210 --> 37:52.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: But in London only five licensed stations are on the FM dial.
[37:54.210 --> 37:59.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: So that means there's a lot of space a lot of static in between those five stations.
[38:00.450 --> 38:06.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: And what some enterprising people have done is put their own radio stations on the air.
[38:07.550 --> 38:14.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, when I first arrived in London I suggest everybody do this when you travel to any place.
[38:15.270 --> 38:31.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: Bring along a little Walkman and at night as you're drifting off to sleep just tune up and down the AM and the FM bands and see what kind of things are out there.
[38:33.490 --> 38:34.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's amazing.
[38:34.550 --> 38:39.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, you could even do that here I suppose, but we all pretty much know, don't we, what's out there.
[38:43.390 --> 38:50.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, the first day I did that of course I came across the license stations pretty quickly and they were okay.
[38:50.790 --> 38:51.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: They were different.
[38:51.350 --> 38:55.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: They were, you know, different than here anyway, but I wanted something a bit more interesting.
[38:56.910 --> 39:04.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: One of the first stations I came across was one that was playing all this music.
[39:05.150 --> 39:06.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: A lot of music.
[39:06.310 --> 39:09.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: They would just keep playing you know, over and over again.
[39:10.930 --> 39:14.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: Usually kind of a disco beat to it.
[39:14.730 --> 39:33.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: And then suddenly in the middle of the music the music would completely stop and this voice would come on and say something something kind of strange like you know, hey Joe you didn't call my beeper yet you know, hurry up I can't stay here all day.
[39:33.670 --> 39:38.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, not the kind of thing that a DJ on a professional radio station would say.
[39:39.650 --> 40:06.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: Rather vague kind of coded language and always the music would completely stop and the quality of the voice was very poor it sounded like it was on a telephone and doing some investigation looking around asking people and delving into the underground I finally found out what that was all about and you're not going to believe this but I'll tell you
[40:12.810 --> 40:16.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: actually run on Sony Walkmans.
[40:16.730 --> 40:18.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: Completely on Walkmans.
[40:18.930 --> 40:21.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: What they do is they play a tape.
[40:22.510 --> 40:25.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: And the tape is the music that we listen to.
[40:25.730 --> 40:31.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: And then when they want to say something, they stop the tape and talk through the microphone on the Walkman.
[40:33.490 --> 40:36.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: Which is why the voice sounds so terrible.
[40:36.270 --> 40:37.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: And then they start the tape again.
[40:37.970 --> 40:38.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that's it.
[40:38.530 --> 40:40.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's the radio station right there, folks.
[40:41.290 --> 40:44.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that station gets out to all of London.
[40:45.030 --> 40:47.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Most amazing thing I ever heard.
[40:48.490 --> 40:51.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now the station that I actually saw wasn't like that.
[40:51.230 --> 40:55.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was a bit more professional, but not by much.
[40:57.050 --> 41:02.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: The station was run from a guy's bedroom.
[41:02.810 --> 41:05.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: He literally gets up and does a show.
[41:07.290 --> 41:19.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: And what's unique about this is he does a show for two hours, and then he turns it over to somebody else in another part of the city that does a show from his bedroom for two hours.
[41:20.490 --> 41:22.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it just keeps going on like that.
[41:22.350 --> 41:24.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's sort of a step-by-step process.
[41:24.390 --> 41:25.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, why do they do that?
[41:25.610 --> 41:27.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, it makes it very hard to trace.
[41:27.170 --> 41:30.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: It makes it very hard for the authorities to figure out just where it's coming from.
[41:30.270 --> 41:37.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, they might be able to find the transmitter, but they won't find the people that are sending to the transmitter.
[41:38.310 --> 41:39.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's the most incredible thing.
[41:40.670 --> 41:43.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: And there are stations like that all over the place.
[41:43.230 --> 41:44.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: Not just in London, either.
[41:44.650 --> 41:46.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: In other countries as well.
[41:46.510 --> 41:52.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: But it's something you won't see here in the United States very infrequently.
[41:52.510 --> 41:59.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: We did see Radio New York International a couple of years ago, but that was quickly, quickly wiped off.
[42:01.210 --> 42:04.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because that kind of thing just is not acceptable around here.
[42:06.570 --> 42:10.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: But I thought you might be interested in knowing just what's going on in other parts of the world.
[42:12.190 --> 42:21.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: And there's all kinds of other experiences that you can have if you wander around other parts of the world.
[42:21.430 --> 42:24.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: If you wander around this part of the world, there's all kinds of things you can see.
[42:25.390 --> 42:26.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: You just have to be looking.
[42:28.530 --> 42:30.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because the little things...
[42:30.250 --> 42:36.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, if you go and you look for the changing of the guard, and you take tour buses, you're going to miss an awful lot.
[42:36.150 --> 42:37.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because you won't actually be living.
[42:38.030 --> 42:39.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: You'll just be, you know, a tourist.
[42:40.430 --> 42:41.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I saw them, you know.
[42:41.650 --> 42:49.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: I was walking around the streets, and I saw these buses go by with a person standing in the front with a microphone, saying, look here, look there, don't do that, do this.
[42:50.650 --> 42:53.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: And those poor people, they looked miserable, I'm sure they were.
[42:53.650 --> 42:55.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: The bus probably wasn't even air conditioned.
[42:56.850 --> 43:07.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: Meanwhile, I was walking around with my knapsack, just walking up and down streets, not really knowing where I was going, but listening to what people were saying, and going places I wasn't supposed to go.
[43:07.690 --> 43:08.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's the way you see Europe.
[43:09.470 --> 43:10.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's the way you see any place.
[43:14.850 --> 43:19.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, well, there's more I'd like to get to, maybe a bit later.
[43:19.150 --> 43:23.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: Some things I cut out from various newspapers while I was over there.
[43:25.690 --> 43:33.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: And the other cities I went to as well, well, there's just so much to review.
[43:34.070 --> 43:35.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: So much to learn from.
[43:35.710 --> 43:41.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: You come back to the States after being away for so long, and it all looks different.
[43:41.870 --> 43:45.010]  [EVILCORLEY]: It all looks so completely weird.
[43:45.670 --> 43:51.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: And you see how someone coming to this place for the first time would actually look upon it.
[43:51.690 --> 43:57.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, everything from the way a phone feels to the way the cars look.
[43:58.610 --> 44:02.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, even the landscape is completely weird and different.
[44:03.190 --> 44:05.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, of course, the way people talk.
[44:08.780 --> 44:10.440]  [EVILCORLEY]: Anyway, give us a call.
[44:10.440 --> 44:12.590]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, 212-279-3400.
[44:13.060 --> 44:17.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: Show your support for non-commercial radio, for WBAI.
[44:18.420 --> 44:26.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we'll play this happy little song for you, off a live record, from a band that is no more.
[44:27.780 --> 44:29.720]  [EVILCORLEY]: Out of England, appropriately enough.
[44:31.240 --> 44:32.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: The Specials.
[44:32.480 --> 44:39.270]  [SPEAKER_16]: I'm just going to spend the real time.
[44:39.750 --> 44:44.310]  [SPEAKER_16]: I drink my age in pines.
[44:44.770 --> 44:49.070]  [SPEAKER_16]: Look for girls every night.
[44:49.380 --> 44:52.610]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't really exist.
[45:07.850 --> 45:11.830]  [SPEAKER_16]: I spend my weekend with a load of bloats.
[45:12.010 --> 45:14.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: I forget the punchline when I tell a joke.
[45:14.990 --> 45:16.810]  [SPEAKER_16]: I want to stay outside.
[45:16.810 --> 45:18.330]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't want to go home.
[45:18.370 --> 45:21.690]  [SPEAKER_16]: Till my nicotine fingers are stuck at my throat.
[45:22.190 --> 45:24.890]  [SPEAKER_16]: I'm just a stereotype.
[45:25.490 --> 45:28.530]  [SPEAKER_16]: I drink my age in pines.
[45:28.830 --> 45:31.850]  [SPEAKER_16]: Look for girls every night.
[45:32.030 --> 45:34.090]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't really exist.
[45:48.200 --> 45:51.920]  [SPEAKER_16]: I blame my fiancé when I could be dear.
[45:52.160 --> 45:55.260]  [SPEAKER_16]: The doctor said no drink for 17 weeks.
[45:55.260 --> 45:56.940]  [SPEAKER_16]: I want to get out.
[45:57.020 --> 45:58.640]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't want to stay home.
[45:58.840 --> 46:02.120]  [SPEAKER_16]: Sit in and watch colour TV on my own.
[46:10.220 --> 46:12.220]  [SPEAKER_16]: Four girls every night.
[46:12.340 --> 46:14.400]  [SPEAKER_16]: And I listen to my stereo.
[46:16.180 --> 46:18.860]  [SPEAKER_16]: The tablets are finished.
[46:19.200 --> 46:21.100]  [SPEAKER_16]: The cure is complete.
[46:21.580 --> 46:26.360]  [SPEAKER_16]: I haven't had a drink now For 17 weeks.
[46:26.960 --> 46:33.410]  [SPEAKER_16]: 17 points if I go out tonight It'll go to my...
[46:44.640 --> 46:52.420]  [SPEAKER_08]: Music rocking all over the land Because they're not cool, cool new vision I don't know what to
[47:03.240 --> 47:29.020]  [SPEAKER_08]: do with my companion I won't stop all performed And I go to my house Look at it A little bit Or hangout I turn on my stereo.
[47:29.960 --> 47:30.560]  [SPEAKER_08]: Bulldog!
[47:31.000 --> 47:31.460]  [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, we go!
[47:33.420 --> 47:34.440]  [SPEAKER_08]: Oh, we go!
[47:59.730 --> 48:00.970]  [SPEAKER_16]: I'm rocking your way.
[48:01.370 --> 48:01.970]  [SPEAKER_16]: Stereo.
[48:02.770 --> 48:04.850]  [SPEAKER_16]: Ah, ah, ah, stereotype.
[48:07.490 --> 48:10.210]  [SPEAKER_16]: And that's the way I wanna be, I don't wanna be hype.
[48:14.930 --> 48:17.630]  [SPEAKER_16]: All I want is my stereo.
[48:18.710 --> 48:20.870]  [SPEAKER_16]: All I want is my stereo.
[48:20.870 --> 48:21.590]  [SPEAKER_16]: Stereo.
[48:21.870 --> 48:22.650]  [SPEAKER_16]: Stereo.
[48:22.650 --> 48:24.890]  [SPEAKER_16]: All I want is my stereo.
[48:25.310 --> 48:26.310]  [SPEAKER_16]: Only light it.
[48:26.310 --> 48:28.390]  [SPEAKER_16]: All I want is my stereo.
[48:28.970 --> 48:29.730]  [SPEAKER_16]: Only light it.
[48:44.670 --> 48:45.470]  [SPEAKER_13]: Stereo.
[49:20.520 --> 49:21.280]  [SPEAKER_13]: I'm a stereotype.
[49:25.720 --> 49:26.320]  [SPEAKER_13]: Only light it.
[49:34.960 --> 49:36.300]  [SPEAKER_08]: Stereo!
[50:15.080 --> 50:18.120]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's time to rock steady.
[50:19.360 --> 50:23.480]  [SPEAKER_16]: Ba-ba-boom time is here.
[50:26.160 --> 50:33.280]  [SPEAKER_16]: Get on your feet now and make it a treat, yes.
[50:33.280 --> 50:38.180]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rest the time is here.
[50:55.250 --> 50:58.590]  [SPEAKER_08]: The children are dancing.
[51:03.300 --> 51:05.980]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rest the time.
[51:11.000 --> 51:13.900]  [SPEAKER_16]: Don't lose the feet now.
[51:14.640 --> 51:17.760]  [SPEAKER_16]: Just make it a treat, yes.
[51:18.560 --> 51:20.660]  [SPEAKER_16]: Festival time.
[51:37.320 --> 51:39.800]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rest the festival.
[51:40.820 --> 51:43.060]  [SPEAKER_16]: Ready, get ready.
[51:43.880 --> 51:46.640]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's time to rock steady.
[51:48.220 --> 51:51.580]  [SPEAKER_16]: Ba-ba-boom time is here and everywhere.
[51:55.380 --> 52:02.060]  [SPEAKER_16]: Whatever you sow now, that you shall reap, yes.
[52:02.060 --> 52:06.940]  [SPEAKER_16]: Festival time is here.
[52:08.560 --> 52:11.740]  [SPEAKER_16]: Oh, oh, oh.
[53:45.230 --> 53:48.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that is music from Black Slate.
[53:50.610 --> 53:55.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: Legalize Collierb here on WBAI.
[53:55.550 --> 54:04.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we heard from the specials before that with Stereotype off a record I picked up in London, which I don't believe has come out here yet.
[54:04.970 --> 54:21.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's the history of Two-Tone, the label with all the English ska, selector, specials, body snatchers, I believe, bad manners, the beat, English beat and madness, and all kinds of neat things like that.
[54:21.670 --> 54:29.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: Double record and all kinds of interesting fun tunes to listen to.
[54:30.790 --> 54:36.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, that last piece by Black Slate, Legalize Collierb.
[54:36.710 --> 54:46.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: Interesting that I should play that because I have a little bit of an experience that happened to me when I was in Amsterdam.
[54:48.210 --> 54:51.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: Wandering around the streets of Amsterdam, much like I wandered around the streets of London.
[54:52.750 --> 54:56.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: In fact, they wrote stories in newspapers about me.
[54:56.290 --> 54:58.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: Who is that person wandering around our streets?
[54:58.790 --> 55:00.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: And can't something be done?
[55:01.530 --> 55:04.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, maybe next year something will be done, but not this year.
[55:05.250 --> 55:16.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: In Amsterdam, as many of you no doubt know, things are a whole lot more liberal as far as what people can do with their bodies.
[55:17.210 --> 55:19.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: I guess that's the most blunt way I can put it.
[55:20.770 --> 55:24.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: Pretty much you are able to do what you want to do.
[55:24.390 --> 55:28.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, if you want to mess yourself up, okay, that's, you know, it's your business.
[55:28.430 --> 55:29.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just don't take anyone else with you.
[55:32.170 --> 55:36.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's a good city for whatever sexual persuasion you happen to be.
[55:37.630 --> 55:40.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: People are open and honest.
[55:41.230 --> 55:43.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: And very generous, too.
[55:43.030 --> 55:45.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's something else I noticed in my travels.
[55:46.990 --> 55:48.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: People are not skimpy.
[55:48.350 --> 55:49.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: They give you lots of food.
[55:49.750 --> 55:57.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, you know, in the restaurants or fast food places you go to, they don't try to cheat you or anything like that.
[55:57.310 --> 56:01.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: Or you don't get the feeling that, you know, it's that kind of a relationship.
[56:01.570 --> 56:15.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: They, you know, you pay money for something or even if you're at somebody's house, the intent is to give you a lot and to have fun and to hang out for as long as you want to without having to worry about clearing the table for the next person.
[56:15.170 --> 56:16.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: Completely different attitude.
[56:17.150 --> 56:26.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: But as far as the experience I had, it seems there was this gathering.
[56:26.430 --> 56:38.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, perhaps I should say the entire reason for my traveling overseas in the first place was to be part of a convention of computer hackers in Amsterdam.
[56:39.530 --> 56:54.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: People from Chaos Computer Club and the Dutch hacking group known as HackTik and folks from the United States and all of the other parts of the world, England and Austria and you name it.
[56:54.830 --> 57:04.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: We all kind of gathered, converged in Amsterdam and just explored the place and traded information and had lots of fun.
[57:04.670 --> 57:10.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: But at the end of it all, which was a Friday night, actually, no, I'm sorry, it was a Saturday afternoon.
[57:10.610 --> 57:15.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: Friday night we had a party and then we did things that night.
[57:15.870 --> 57:36.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: But things really got kind of crazy the next day when this rich guy, yeah, this rich, mysterious person who lived in the suburbs, invited some of us computer hackers over to his house for the ultimate, the ultimate party of the elite few.
[57:37.770 --> 57:46.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, I just can't tell you how honored I felt as I made my way over there with a couple of the other dignitaries that had been so honored.
[57:46.290 --> 57:52.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: Uh, as we, as we took the train over there, I just knew it was going to be an experience that I would end up talking about on the radio someday.
[57:53.530 --> 58:01.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, uh, we got there, we, uh, met some of the people there, and we tried to figure out things to say.
[58:02.330 --> 58:09.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: And once we had done that for a little while, we realized more people were showing up and it started to become kind of interesting.
[58:10.230 --> 58:20.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: Um, however, as I've, uh, as I've mentioned, the, uh, the climate in Amsterdam is, is very liberal and, uh, certain substances get passed around a lot more readily than others.
[58:21.610 --> 58:24.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, folks tend to, uh, to be a bit more creative.
[58:26.250 --> 58:32.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, to make a long story short, this, uh, this person who had the party at his house, uh, decided to have a little experiment.
[58:32.790 --> 58:39.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: They had a, um, one of those, one of those machines you hook up to telephones and you can transmit still pictures.
[58:39.830 --> 58:42.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: to another telephone that has a similar machine.
[58:42.930 --> 58:45.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, they were hooked up to, uh, to California.
[58:46.230 --> 58:47.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: From Amsterdam to California.
[58:47.630 --> 58:49.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't know what the time difference is.
[58:49.250 --> 58:53.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: Um, well, actually, it must be about nine hours because it's six hours between Amsterdam and here.
[58:54.810 --> 58:59.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, uh, it was about, uh, probably about, uh, midnight.
[59:00.590 --> 59:04.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: Midnight in Amsterdam, which would mean it would be about three in the afternoon in California.
[59:04.450 --> 59:23.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, what, uh, what this incredibly, uh, intelligent and creative, uh, rich person who lived in the suburbs and had all these computer hackers over at his house was intending to do was to give, um, give certain people, certain volunteers, a particular kind of drug.
[59:24.190 --> 59:25.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: Their choice.
[59:25.230 --> 59:25.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: They had a choice.
[59:25.930 --> 59:28.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: They could either take LSD or ecstasy.
[59:29.910 --> 59:31.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: One of those two drugs, okay?
[59:31.490 --> 59:32.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: They could take either one.
[59:32.730 --> 59:36.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: And then, somebody in California would take one of those drugs, too.
[59:37.270 --> 59:44.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, using this miraculous machine over the telephone and using computers, too, they would try to influence each other.
[59:46.110 --> 59:51.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yeah, this is a real throwback to, uh, you know, to Timothy Leary and, uh, all that kind of, uh, business.
[59:52.590 --> 59:58.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: And so, um, the, uh, the nice, rich, creative person asked for volunteers.
[59:59.030 --> 01:00:04.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, here I am, standing here in Amsterdam with, with the craziest bunch of people I've probably ever been with in my life.
[01:00:05.250 --> 01:00:19.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: People with, uh, you know, all kinds of, of different color hair and, and, and spikes and, and skinheads and, and all kinds of people that, uh, you know, most people would, would cower in fear if they, if they saw, you know, you know, a group of interplanetary type,
[01:00:19.030 --> 01:00:21.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: uh, people, uh, such as these.
[01:00:22.630 --> 01:00:29.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, would you believe not one person volunteered to be a part of this experiment?
[01:00:29.670 --> 01:00:30.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: Not one person.
[01:00:30.570 --> 01:00:35.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: And you should have seen the face on the poor, rich, creative guy who lived in the suburbs.
[01:00:35.790 --> 01:00:43.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: He just could not believe he had invited all of these computer hackers and, and, and strange social deviants to his house.
[01:00:43.410 --> 01:00:51.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: And nobody wanted to take his drugs and, and participate in his experiment across the, across the ocean and, uh, over the phone lines.
[01:00:52.270 --> 01:00:57.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was enough to, uh, to really make you think, you know?
[01:00:57.850 --> 01:01:00.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: To really make you, uh, feel a bit sad.
[01:01:01.650 --> 01:01:03.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: But, of course, we weren't there to feel sad.
[01:01:03.430 --> 01:01:05.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: We were there to, uh, to have fun.
[01:01:05.550 --> 01:01:07.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we refused to, uh, to feel sad.
[01:01:07.510 --> 01:01:09.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we all kind of, uh, didn't pay much attention.
[01:01:11.570 --> 01:01:13.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, that's not the end of the story, unfortunately.
[01:01:14.070 --> 01:01:25.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because, uh, shortly thereafter, um, the, uh, nice, rich, creative man who lived in the suburbs announced that the cookies were ready.
[01:01:26.650 --> 01:01:28.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, I like cookies, you know?
[01:01:28.490 --> 01:01:29.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: I've, I've always have.
[01:01:29.810 --> 01:01:31.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's just been a thing with me ever since I was a kid.
[01:01:32.410 --> 01:01:37.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: And when somebody takes cookies out of an oven, I, uh, you know, I react to that.
[01:01:37.710 --> 01:01:38.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: I react in a positive way.
[01:01:40.990 --> 01:01:44.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: A couple of hours later, I reacted in another kind of a way.
[01:01:44.890 --> 01:01:52.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, realized that, uh, these were no ordinary cookies that I had already eaten quite a few of.
[01:01:53.270 --> 01:02:00.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I started feeling extremely bizarre, extremely strange, and fast-paced.
[01:02:00.650 --> 01:02:01.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: I couldn't sit down.
[01:02:01.530 --> 01:02:04.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: I couldn't sit still or even think.
[01:02:04.710 --> 01:02:07.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: I had to keep moving and standing up.
[01:02:07.130 --> 01:02:08.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: And my heart was racing.
[01:02:08.350 --> 01:02:11.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: And my, my pulse was quickening.
[01:02:11.550 --> 01:02:13.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, and people were asking about what was wrong.
[01:02:14.090 --> 01:02:15.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: What's, what's going on?
[01:02:15.150 --> 01:02:17.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: What are you, you know, are you, are you insane or something like that?
[01:02:17.830 --> 01:02:19.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I didn't know what was going on.
[01:02:19.170 --> 01:02:26.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: I, you know, when you, when you take a certain strange substance, you expect some kind of, uh, a reaction.
[01:02:26.390 --> 01:02:31.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: But when you haven't taken anything to the best of your knowledge, it's the scariest feeling in the world.
[01:02:33.170 --> 01:02:35.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: So I honestly didn't know what was going on.
[01:02:35.270 --> 01:02:41.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: I didn't know if I had been poisoned or if, uh, if I had taken something I couldn't handle or, or what.
[01:02:41.830 --> 01:02:43.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: Or if I was just cracking up finally.
[01:02:45.010 --> 01:02:47.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: And then, I'm, I'm vaguely aware of this.
[01:02:47.210 --> 01:02:52.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because when, when something like this happens, your, your sense of perception is just kind of altered completely.
[01:02:52.490 --> 01:02:55.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: But I was aware of people acting very strange.
[01:02:55.650 --> 01:03:00.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: People talking extremely fast and, uh, and, and being very active and creative.
[01:03:01.190 --> 01:03:07.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: And having these impassioned discussions about the, the C language and, and, and the UNIX operating system.
[01:03:08.150 --> 01:03:10.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: You know, more impassioned than, than usual.
[01:03:10.290 --> 01:03:17.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, you know, almost to the point of, of arguing to the death about a certain command, you know, in a, in a compiler.
[01:03:18.010 --> 01:03:19.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's, uh, that's kind of insane.
[01:03:20.990 --> 01:03:28.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: And so as I realized, uh, that all these people were acting totally bizarre and weird and, and crazy and out of character.
[01:03:29.790 --> 01:03:38.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: It, uh, it, uh, brought me to the sobering realization that, uh, more people had had these cookies than, uh, than should have.
[01:03:38.410 --> 01:03:50.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, the person who did this, the person who was responsible for, uh, for smuggling these things into our systems was, uh, not a very righteous soul indeed.
[01:03:52.250 --> 01:03:57.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, I don't know how, I don't know how long it took.
[01:03:59.030 --> 01:04:06.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, I honestly can't remember falling asleep on a fireplace, but I did.
[01:04:06.770 --> 01:04:09.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I slept there for 12 hours on a fireplace.
[01:04:11.090 --> 01:04:16.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, I had trouble sleeping on the floor, but, you know, on bricks, and I don't know.
[01:04:17.170 --> 01:04:35.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: But when I woke up, I, uh, I, uh, met with the remnants of the other people who were there, and we all kind of agreed it wasn't a very nice thing for him to do, and we, uh, all made long-distance calls back to the United States using his telephone, and we felt a little bit better about that,
[01:04:35.710 --> 01:04:37.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: and then we escaped and never came back.
[01:04:38.110 --> 01:04:41.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: That was, uh, that was one experience in Amsterdam.
[01:04:41.990 --> 01:04:47.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: In retrospect, it's fun to look back on something like that, but while it was going on, it was scary.
[01:04:47.710 --> 01:04:53.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: Really scary, and, uh, be careful if you get yourself into a situation like that.
[01:04:54.310 --> 01:05:05.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because, um, it had a happy ending, but sometimes people can do really crazy things, and you have to watch out for them and not put yourself in their hands.
[01:05:08.370 --> 01:05:11.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: But, uh, that's, uh, that's a part of Amsterdam.
[01:05:12.570 --> 01:05:13.330]  [EVILCORLEY]: One part.
[01:05:15.250 --> 01:05:20.330]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, there was something else in, um, in London that I wanted to mention.
[01:05:21.170 --> 01:05:30.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: Um, just like in Monty Python, just like on the episodes on TV, the, the British love to apologize for things.
[01:05:30.210 --> 01:05:32.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, this is, this is not a joke.
[01:05:32.310 --> 01:05:33.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: This is true.
[01:05:33.970 --> 01:05:41.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: In the subway station, the underground station, which is, uh, what they refer to it as, there is, there was this sign.
[01:05:41.510 --> 01:05:44.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: I took a picture of it because I knew I wanted to have this.
[01:05:44.850 --> 01:05:49.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: Um, a sign that says customer information, and then written in handwriting on a magic marker.
[01:05:49.930 --> 01:05:51.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's like a, a white board.
[01:05:51.810 --> 01:06:00.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: The person wrote this, uh, from Michael Scott, general manager of the Metropolitan Underground Line.
[01:06:01.150 --> 01:06:10.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: Uh, my apologies to passengers who were subjected to lengthy delays on Tuesday evening, the 25th of July, on both the Metropolitan and Jubilee lines.
[01:06:10.350 --> 01:06:21.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: The delay was caused by a Metropolitan train badly damaging five signals between Finchley Road and Williston Green, causing the signals to remain at danger.
[01:06:22.190 --> 01:06:32.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: This damage to equipment meant Metropolitan trains had to run over the Jubilee line for a period of time indefinitely, causing delays also to Jubilee passengers.
[01:06:33.490 --> 01:06:35.790]  [EVILCORLEY]: I shall be putting my apologies in writing.
[01:06:36.050 --> 01:06:39.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: These will be distributed to yourself at station entrances later.
[01:06:39.710 --> 01:06:43.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, you see, I mean, that couldn't happen in New York.
[01:06:43.230 --> 01:06:46.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: You don't even get an explanation in New York as to what's going on.
[01:06:47.750 --> 01:06:48.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: Which, which is another thing.
[01:06:49.350 --> 01:06:54.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: I went away for six weeks, and here I am back again, and there's a, there's a number nine train?
[01:06:55.750 --> 01:06:56.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, what's going on here?
[01:06:57.670 --> 01:06:59.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: Who's, uh, who's responsible for this?
[01:06:59.190 --> 01:07:00.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: A number nine train?
[01:07:00.330 --> 01:07:02.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, there isn't even a number eight train as far as I know.
[01:07:03.170 --> 01:07:06.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: When I left, there were only seven lines on the IRT, and now they're up to number nine.
[01:07:06.950 --> 01:07:07.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't understand it.
[01:07:08.850 --> 01:07:13.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, there's queue trains running on 8th Avenue.
[01:07:13.550 --> 01:07:14.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: What, what, what's, what's all that about?
[01:07:16.710 --> 01:07:19.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: The city falls apart when I go away for six weeks.
[01:07:20.170 --> 01:07:29.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: Okay, the final thing I want to read from, um, from London is an article in the, uh, Evening Standard, which, uh, is a daily newspaper.
[01:07:29.350 --> 01:07:32.510]  [EVILCORLEY]: One of the, uh, I guess daily news type of papers they have over there.
[01:07:33.430 --> 01:07:43.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, uh, this concerns a situation which took place, uh, I don't know if, if the news got back here, but it certainly was in all the papers over there.
[01:07:44.270 --> 01:07:51.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: Uh, the events surrounding Carnival, which is an annual occurrence, um, in London.
[01:07:52.950 --> 01:07:57.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, this, um, it takes place in a, in a part of, uh, of London called Notting Hill.
[01:07:59.810 --> 01:08:07.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: A lot of people get together, and, uh, party, and dance, play music, and all kinds of things like that.
[01:08:07.350 --> 01:08:13.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: But historically, there have been troubles between the residents and the police.
[01:08:13.990 --> 01:08:30.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: This particular time, there was a riot at the end of the Carnival, and, uh, several people were injured, a lot of people were arrested, and it led to a bit of, um, of controversy over the future of this particular Carnival.
[01:08:31.130 --> 01:08:43.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: One Tory leader, I remember saying in, um, in a newspaper, or perhaps it was on radio, said, if these people want to have Carnival so much, why don't they just go back to the Caribbean and do it?
[01:08:44.250 --> 01:08:48.270]  [EVILCORLEY]: Can you imagine a government leader saying something like that?
[01:08:48.330 --> 01:08:48.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, he did.
[01:08:49.030 --> 01:08:50.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was in all the papers.
[01:08:50.070 --> 01:08:53.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: And nobody really made a big deal about it either, which was surprising.
[01:08:56.310 --> 01:09:06.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, this is an article that appeared in the Evening Standard and made me see it from a different light, which I'm glad someone finally had the guts to, to do.
[01:09:07.250 --> 01:09:09.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's written by a man named Stan Gebler Davies.
[01:09:09.970 --> 01:09:11.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's called The Riot Boys in Blue.
[01:09:13.170 --> 01:09:28.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: It would be a terrible pity if the police, whom we have been brought up to admire and trust, should be reconstituted as an army on the continental model, an army whose poker-faced soldiers may not be addressed or questioned by citizens in the street without fear of arrest.
[01:09:29.850 --> 01:09:36.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: I am afraid that that is what is happening, and my fears were reinforced by my presence at the Notting Hill Carnival.
[01:09:37.150 --> 01:09:48.750]  [EVILCORLEY]: I never saw so much filth, with a capital F, in all my life, if I may be allowed to use the term which is used affectionately by the citizenry to describe informally the guardians of their law.
[01:09:49.490 --> 01:09:52.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: I wish to emphasize that it is the citizen's law.
[01:09:52.170 --> 01:09:54.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean that the law is ours.
[01:09:55.090 --> 01:09:59.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: This being a democracy, we the citizens have made the law and it is up to us to keep it.
[01:10:00.110 --> 01:10:11.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: We employ the police, who are our servants, to ensure that those of us who are remiss or lax in keeping to the law are brought up short and held accountable.
[01:10:12.490 --> 01:10:28.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: We do not, however, employ the police to interpret the law, or act as moral guardians, nor should they be mustered by the thousands from time to time in order to intimidate those citizens whom they suspect might just possibly have it in mind to behave badly.
[01:10:30.170 --> 01:10:33.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: That is what they were doing at Notting Hill.
[01:10:33.330 --> 01:10:39.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: They were there in such fantastic, ludicrous strength that they managed to frighten themselves.
[01:10:41.430 --> 01:10:47.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: I was with friends at a luncheon party in Lansdowne Road, which is on the very periphery of the parade.
[01:10:48.410 --> 01:11:01.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: We ventured out often, either alone or in groups whose members soon lost one another and made the sweaty circuit of the streets quite safely, buying plantain and jerk chicken and the odd can of beer.
[01:11:02.470 --> 01:11:05.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: We were innocently engaged and enjoying ourselves.
[01:11:05.550 --> 01:11:11.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: In the ancient, decent jargon of the police, we were going about our business.
[01:11:13.070 --> 01:11:15.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: Of course, the people were mostly black.
[01:11:15.750 --> 01:11:18.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: They were, in truth, almost entirely black.
[01:11:18.490 --> 01:11:24.830]  [EVILCORLEY]: The festival has a fearsome reputation for anti-white hostility, which in my experience is unjustified.
[01:11:25.710 --> 01:11:30.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it is a fact that white people are afraid of black people when they are in a black neighborhood.
[01:11:32.490 --> 01:11:40.250]  [EVILCORLEY]: In parentheses, it pains me to say so, but I am of a generation brought up to believe that it was bad manners even to notice a person's color.
[01:11:40.490 --> 01:11:42.150]  [EVILCORLEY]: That was a useful hypocrisy.
[01:11:43.690 --> 01:11:46.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: About half the white people on the streets were wearing blue uniforms.
[01:11:47.250 --> 01:11:48.710]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was an awful nonsense.
[01:11:49.090 --> 01:11:51.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: There were rows of coppers everywhere to be seen.
[01:11:51.750 --> 01:11:55.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: There were barricades and truncheons and board coppers to be seen on every corner.
[01:11:56.850 --> 01:11:59.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: Some streets were off-limits, except to residents.
[01:11:59.810 --> 01:12:03.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: Since when may a street be declared off-limits to a free-born citizen?
[01:12:03.870 --> 01:12:06.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't recall reading that in constitutional law.
[01:12:07.570 --> 01:12:13.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: A line of blue-clad constables looking bored and witless snaked interminably from one street to another.
[01:12:14.190 --> 01:12:19.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: If you took a close look at them, you could see they were not real fuzz, but part-timers.
[01:12:19.850 --> 01:12:26.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: Some of them being about half the size of regulation issue coppers, and others either excessively fat or excessively thin.
[01:12:27.670 --> 01:12:35.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: The fellows with the shields and the horses were another matter, but there was no sign of them until dark when they came like an army, armored and mounted.
[01:12:36.690 --> 01:12:51.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: Then the earlier dubious image of the friendly copper telling you you were not allowed to walk the public highway in England because it had been designated a safety area, evaporated, and was replaced by some fierce, collective creature armed to the teeth like a French or American hit squad.
[01:12:53.210 --> 01:12:55.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't blame the police themselves.
[01:12:55.110 --> 01:12:56.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: It isn't their fault.
[01:12:56.870 --> 01:13:01.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: They have been told to behave like an army, and they are being given the equipment of an army.
[01:13:01.850 --> 01:13:08.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: Their commanders have taken to referring to the rest of us as civilians, as if they were not civil servants themselves.
[01:13:09.650 --> 01:13:19.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: I suppose it is our own fault for allowing assistant chief superintendents to appear on television explaining how they have just deployed 5,000 men in the fight against loose behavior.
[01:13:20.070 --> 01:13:25.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: If you give the police a paramilitary function, I suppose you can scarcely complain if they use it.
[01:13:26.750 --> 01:13:33.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: However, there will come a time when we will be sorry we gave them that function, as they must already be sorry themselves.
[01:13:34.750 --> 01:13:42.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: The police used to be required to arrest wrongdoers after they had done it, but now we ask them to charge in regardless.
[01:13:43.350 --> 01:13:46.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: I was at Notting Hill, and I know how peaceable it was.
[01:13:47.010 --> 01:13:50.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: I have a dark suspicion that it was the police who rioted.
[01:13:50.610 --> 01:13:52.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't want to see that happen here.
[01:13:52.930 --> 01:13:56.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't know whether they frightened the criminals, but by God they frightened me.
[01:13:59.030 --> 01:14:06.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: A piece by Stan Gebler Davies in the London Evening Standard, Wednesday, August 30th, 1989.
[01:14:07.190 --> 01:14:14.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I think that was a really powerful piece, especially in light of what was going on.
[01:14:15.570 --> 01:14:21.230]  [EVILCORLEY]: The news stories that were being published around that time, nobody said anything like this.
[01:14:21.530 --> 01:14:29.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was all a riot that took place, and what must be done to stop such people from doing such horrible things.
[01:14:29.810 --> 01:14:37.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, I myself went over to Notting Hill and All Saints Road, and spent an entire day there.
[01:14:37.590 --> 01:14:41.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: This was a couple of days after Carnival, a couple of days after the riot.
[01:14:44.210 --> 01:14:50.090]  [EVILCORLEY]: And incredibly peaceful, friendly neighborhood it was.
[01:14:51.930 --> 01:14:55.610]  [EVILCORLEY]: Never at one time did I feel threatened in any way.
[01:14:55.610 --> 01:15:06.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: However, after being there for a few hours, I was walking down the street, and suddenly, from the street I had just walked down, I heard shouts.
[01:15:07.550 --> 01:15:19.130]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I turned around, and I went back down the street, and these police had appeared out of nowhere, and seemed quite intent on arresting this person.
[01:15:20.190 --> 01:15:22.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: I can't imagine what it was he had done.
[01:15:22.430 --> 01:15:24.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: I had just walked down the street only moments earlier.
[01:15:27.390 --> 01:15:35.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: And these police were there, and they were insisting that he had done something so horrible that he had to be taken away right there and then.
[01:15:36.270 --> 01:15:42.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I remember one of the things I heard one of the policemen saying he had done was obstructing justice.
[01:15:43.170 --> 01:15:45.330]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, that's a lovely phrase, isn't it?
[01:15:45.350 --> 01:15:48.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, you can obstruct justice just by existing sometimes.
[01:15:50.110 --> 01:15:52.650]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, that's apparently what they were getting him for.
[01:15:52.730 --> 01:15:53.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't know.
[01:15:53.850 --> 01:16:03.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: But the ever-increasing crowd was getting louder and more outraged to see something like this happen yet again.
[01:16:04.010 --> 01:16:05.910]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was obviously not the first time.
[01:16:06.630 --> 01:16:07.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: More police came.
[01:16:08.790 --> 01:16:11.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: Before you knew it, there were about two dozen of them.
[01:16:12.550 --> 01:16:13.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: Came out of nowhere.
[01:16:13.690 --> 01:16:19.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: They apparently had been in the neighborhood the whole time in plainclothes cars because that's what they pulled up in.
[01:16:20.210 --> 01:16:20.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: And...
[01:16:22.990 --> 01:16:28.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: I was very surprised at the restraint shown by the community.
[01:16:29.270 --> 01:16:30.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: People were watching from windows.
[01:16:31.510 --> 01:16:34.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: People were shouting at the policemen.
[01:16:36.310 --> 01:16:42.410]  [EVILCORLEY]: But, for the most part, they were trying to ask them why they were doing what they were doing.
[01:16:45.170 --> 01:16:50.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: Not getting a satisfactory answer, but at least not getting any more violence or any more arrests.
[01:16:51.130 --> 01:16:52.730]  [EVILCORLEY]: They did take that one person away.
[01:16:52.730 --> 01:16:54.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't know what became of it.
[01:16:56.090 --> 01:16:59.050]  [EVILCORLEY]: But, as far as I know, there were no further incidents that day.
[01:16:59.190 --> 01:16:59.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: But it...
[01:17:00.450 --> 01:17:05.290]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was a sobering experience for me because I saw how these people feel.
[01:17:05.510 --> 01:17:10.170]  [EVILCORLEY]: These people who live in this neighborhood, they feel as if they're under occupation by the police.
[01:17:10.170 --> 01:17:10.890]  [EVILCORLEY]: These...
[01:17:11.690 --> 01:17:23.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: Every single one of the policemen that I saw, and a couple of policewomen, too, were these blonde-haired, blue-eyed, fair-skinned, completely out-of-place people.
[01:17:24.110 --> 01:17:25.970]  [EVILCORLEY]: How better to make a...
[01:17:25.970 --> 01:17:31.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: make a crowd of folks who live in a certain neighborhood feel as if they are being victimized.
[01:17:33.430 --> 01:17:37.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: Which, indeed, they were, based on what I saw.
[01:17:37.590 --> 01:17:56.470]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, I don't know all the facts here because I was a visitor to the area, but it did put it all in perspective, and it made me realize how the media there can get things just as fouled up and wrong as the media here in reporting stories like Tompkins Square and the plight of the homeless and that kind of thing.
[01:17:58.050 --> 01:18:02.950]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it leads me into a song.
[01:18:03.190 --> 01:18:08.330]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yes, it leads me into a musical piece that I had heard many times before.
[01:18:08.330 --> 01:18:15.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was a favorite piece of mine, in fact, from Big Audio Dynamite, which is the band that I said I would play some more pieces from.
[01:18:16.310 --> 01:18:27.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: And this, indeed, is a very rare piece because while it appeared on a record last year, the Battle of All Saints Road, which now has new meaning for me.
[01:18:27.310 --> 01:18:28.530]  [EVILCORLEY]: I now know what the song means.
[01:18:28.530 --> 01:18:34.190]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's all about the carnival and the battle between the police and the folks who live in the neighborhood.
[01:18:35.190 --> 01:18:37.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: However, the version I have now was not put on the record.
[01:18:37.850 --> 01:18:42.490]  [EVILCORLEY]: It was never put on any record, in fact, and this is coming to you from a tape.
[01:18:44.810 --> 01:18:46.210]  [EVILCORLEY]: So, let's give a listen.
[01:18:46.490 --> 01:18:57.390]  [EVILCORLEY]: Big Audio Dynamite and the rare, never-before-heard version of the Battle of All Saints Road here on Listener Supported WBAI New York.
[01:18:57.670 --> 01:19:09.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: And if you want to see future programs and alternative ideas and discussion call-in programs and things like that, please give us a call now and pledge your support.
[01:19:10.730 --> 01:19:11.930]  [EVILCORLEY]: 279-3400.
[01:19:11.930 --> 01:19:18.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: We have volunteers standing by and they will be happy to take your call.
[01:19:19.070 --> 01:19:24.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: Please make the phone ring and get their blood flowing again.
[01:19:24.210 --> 01:19:26.570]  [EVILCORLEY]: 279-3400, area code 212.
[01:19:26.870 --> 01:19:28.430]  [EVILCORLEY]: Here's Big Audio Dynamite.
[01:19:31.440 --> 01:19:37.060]  [SPEAKER_08]: No matter what the people say, these sounds lead the way.
[01:19:37.540 --> 01:19:39.380]  [SPEAKER_08]: It's beyond all the day.
[01:20:02.790 --> 01:20:06.170]  [SPEAKER_08]: Here comes the great Wooga Wooga with our Luga.
[01:20:10.800 --> 01:20:14.400]  [SPEAKER_15]: Couple of years ago down at Brook Grove.
[01:20:15.600 --> 01:20:19.040]  [SPEAKER_15]: The Jays of Tides sitting on the Trisha Troll.
[01:20:20.540 --> 01:20:23.900]  [SPEAKER_15]: A skinny white jeep came in and took the chair.
[01:20:25.380 --> 01:20:27.100]  [SPEAKER_16]: He had a black leather jacket.
[01:20:29.570 --> 01:20:32.650]  [SPEAKER_15]: That's Brook Creek, baby, Pummy.
[01:20:33.130 --> 01:20:36.990]  [SPEAKER_15]: Now you ain't seen nothing like it down the mangrove.
[01:20:38.170 --> 01:20:41.410]  [SPEAKER_15]: A disco torn to a flat iron stone.
[01:20:42.830 --> 01:20:46.430]  [SPEAKER_15]: And all the brothers, they began to stay.
[01:20:54.190 --> 01:20:55.030]  [SPEAKER_16]: Behind, way behind.
[01:20:55.030 --> 01:20:58.010]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's the blues that gets you up.
[01:20:58.090 --> 01:21:00.550]  [SPEAKER_16]: I'm frozen, you can't stop it.
[01:21:01.230 --> 01:21:05.390]  [SPEAKER_16]: Sometimes you drown, Can't get no sense at all.
[01:21:05.870 --> 01:21:08.450]  [SPEAKER_22]: Once in yard when a move I can't turn off the ball.
[01:21:08.830 --> 01:21:10.730]  [SPEAKER_22]: One of the M, mini-no, mini-no.
[01:21:11.050 --> 01:21:13.310]  [SPEAKER_22]: One of my standards says it's the genre from R.
[01:21:13.650 --> 01:21:15.750]  [SPEAKER_22]: One of the M, mini-no, mini-no.
[01:21:15.930 --> 01:21:18.250]  [SPEAKER_22]: If the dream's a built-up, I'll go to get so all.
[01:21:18.470 --> 01:21:20.890]  [SPEAKER_22]: Sometimes if I go to the new can't get no sense at all.
[01:21:25.630 --> 01:21:29.030]  [SPEAKER_21]: They had to cross, he had to song.
[01:21:30.530 --> 01:21:33.810]  [SPEAKER_16]: The rocker and the rocker began to get along.
[01:21:35.570 --> 01:21:38.970]  [SPEAKER_16]: Looking round for something to bang.
[01:21:40.430 --> 01:21:43.750]  [SPEAKER_16]: We all join here and this is what we sang.
[01:21:45.590 --> 01:21:50.510]  [SPEAKER_16]: We fired our guns when the cultures kept coming There wasn't quite as many as there was a wallet to
[01:21:57.710 --> 01:21:59.090]  [SPEAKER_15]: jam a shed.
[01:22:00.590 --> 01:22:03.910]  [SPEAKER_15]: Fifty-seven sherry in a round of land.
[01:22:05.770 --> 01:22:10.030]  [SPEAKER_15]: Red-stripe being a game of dominoes.
[01:22:10.810 --> 01:22:13.690]  [SPEAKER_15]: Sempre, sir, lady, the honkies, and the gold.
[01:22:15.090 --> 01:22:16.970]  [SPEAKER_15]: Well, it ain't Mozart.
[01:22:17.890 --> 01:22:21.370]  [SPEAKER_16]: Nowadays, I'll fall on all same throne.
[01:22:22.970 --> 01:22:26.230]  [SPEAKER_16]: Hots and yachts coming by the truckload.
[01:22:27.790 --> 01:22:31.070]  [SPEAKER_16]: A condo spins with a glass is too strong.
[01:22:32.950 --> 01:22:36.050]  [SPEAKER_16]: Race attacks, follow facts, nobody go.
[01:22:37.350 --> 01:22:40.130]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's the booze that picks you up.
[01:22:40.470 --> 01:22:42.370]  [SPEAKER_16]: The thrones against the wall.
[01:22:42.750 --> 01:22:45.110]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's my wallet and my mind.
[01:22:45.110 --> 01:22:47.470]  [SPEAKER_15]: At the coffee bar.
[01:22:47.930 --> 01:22:52.210]  [SPEAKER_15]: 7-Eleven, McDonald's, and Whole Joe's.
[01:22:53.190 --> 01:22:56.030]  [SPEAKER_15]: Jetties on a jetty, watch the river flow.
[01:22:57.750 --> 01:23:01.010]  [SPEAKER_15]: The land book walks like 42nd Street.
[01:23:02.890 --> 01:23:05.930]  [SPEAKER_15]: Folks, I gotta tell you, this town called me B.
[01:23:07.470 --> 01:23:08.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: That's a tree, you know.
[01:25:52.770 --> 01:25:55.250]  [SPEAKER_16]: The best man in West London, B-O-U!
[01:26:04.620 --> 01:26:09.900]  [SPEAKER_16]: The truth was weak and weary, Russians running low.
[01:26:10.600 --> 01:26:15.220]  [SPEAKER_15]: Mission seemed impossible, we had to save the show.
[01:26:15.220 --> 01:26:20.580]  [SPEAKER_15]: Lost the map and compass, and team's got a hope.
[01:26:21.380 --> 01:26:25.600]  [SPEAKER_15]: David took the liar, a little rock and roll.
[01:26:26.740 --> 01:26:29.940]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rewind, operator gonna kill em with sound.
[01:26:31.960 --> 01:26:35.100]  [SPEAKER_15]: Falling out murder and select a come down.
[01:26:36.860 --> 01:26:41.580]  [SPEAKER_15]: Just like general customs, they're sinking all around.
[01:26:42.480 --> 01:26:47.060]  [SPEAKER_15]: Wagging trains on fire, walk by bugle sound.
[01:26:47.680 --> 01:26:50.980]  [SPEAKER_15]: Never had to hurry, we went.
[01:26:53.350 --> 01:26:57.610]  [SPEAKER_16]: Built each other's hands, and we stood out round.
[01:26:58.790 --> 01:27:01.830]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rewind, operator gonna kill em with sound.
[01:27:03.930 --> 01:27:07.030]  [SPEAKER_16]: Falling out murder and select a come down.

[01:27:46.200 --> 01:27:49.440]  [SPEAKER_16]: Falling out murder and select a come down.
[01:27:51.200 --> 01:27:55.900]  [SPEAKER_16]: If I've been mad and stubborn, we're holding our heads upright.
[01:27:56.500 --> 01:27:58.260]  [SPEAKER_16]: The cavalry...
[01:27:59.080 --> 01:28:01.220]  [SPEAKER_16]: To save the show tonight.
[01:28:02.080 --> 01:28:06.620]  [SPEAKER_16]: Just like in a movie, the ending must be good.
[01:28:06.620 --> 01:28:12.580]  [SPEAKER_16]: We'll ride off into sunset, just like I said we would sing.
[01:28:13.080 --> 01:28:16.300]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rewind, operator gonna kill em' with sound.
[01:28:23.630 --> 01:28:26.870]  [SPEAKER_16]: Rewind, operator gonna kill em' with sound.
[01:28:37.970 --> 01:28:45.130]  [SPEAKER_07]: Ring the alarm, another sound of dying.
[01:28:46.730 --> 01:28:50.430]  [SPEAKER_07]: Ring the alarm, another sound of dying.
[01:29:32.570 --> 01:29:34.930]  [SPEAKER_23]: How strong is it to make an influence?
[01:29:39.510 --> 01:29:41.630]  [SPEAKER_10]: Well, I need a little, I need a bias.
[01:30:34.290 --> 01:30:36.050]  [SPEAKER_20]: I don't know what the company's coming to you.
[01:30:36.190 --> 01:30:37.690]  [SPEAKER_20]: Everyone likes to demonstrate that.
[01:30:38.090 --> 01:30:39.470]  [SPEAKER_20]: Big cokes are no manners.
[01:30:42.750 --> 01:30:44.370]  [SPEAKER_20]: Big cokes are no manners.
[01:30:44.370 --> 01:30:45.470]  [SPEAKER_20]: Rewind,
[01:31:02.290 --> 01:31:07.830]  [SPEAKER_02]: operator with sound.
[01:31:33.860 --> 01:31:36.200]  [SPEAKER_15]: Make a stand.
[01:31:38.340 --> 01:31:40.000]  [SPEAKER_15]: Before you fall.
[01:31:41.840 --> 01:31:44.200]  [SPEAKER_15]: Your country needs you.
[01:31:45.960 --> 01:31:47.260]  [SPEAKER_15]: To play football.
[01:31:50.080 --> 01:31:51.400]  [SPEAKER_15]: Wake up, call.
[01:31:53.340 --> 01:32:03.130]  [SPEAKER_15]: You hear the call, all for one, and one for all,
[01:32:09.100 --> 01:32:10.860]  [SPEAKER_15]: and one for all.
[01:32:12.760 --> 01:32:18.620]  [SPEAKER_15]: What happened to you men of mine?
[01:32:20.420 --> 01:32:26.340]  [SPEAKER_15]: When things were loud, you made them right.
[01:32:28.180 --> 01:32:30.440]  [SPEAKER_15]: All for one,
[01:32:38.920 --> 01:32:42.000]  [SPEAKER_18]: and one for all.
[01:32:43.440 --> 01:32:45.900]  [SPEAKER_18]: Now in the classroom,
[01:32:54.070 --> 01:32:55.670]  [SPEAKER_15]: about the empire.
[01:32:57.370 --> 01:32:59.330]  [SPEAKER_15]: How you were both.
[01:33:01.070 --> 01:33:03.050]  [SPEAKER_15]: A pint of beer.
[01:33:05.230 --> 01:33:06.990]  [SPEAKER_15]: My boss is fine.
[01:33:08.930 --> 01:33:10.730]  [SPEAKER_15]: Your spirit's gone.
[01:33:12.710 --> 01:33:14.430]  [SPEAKER_15]: Just like a fly.
[01:33:16.540 --> 01:33:18.560]  [SPEAKER_15]: Your spirit's gone.
[01:33:20.320 --> 01:33:22.220]  [SPEAKER_15]: Just like a fly.
[01:33:24.420 --> 01:33:26.200]  [SPEAKER_15]: Because it's green.
[01:33:28.300 --> 01:33:30.220]  [SPEAKER_15]: And pleasant land.
[01:33:31.760 --> 01:33:34.220]  [SPEAKER_15]: The power's living.
[01:33:35.920 --> 01:33:38.040]  [SPEAKER_15]: Through your hands.
[01:33:39.860 --> 01:33:45.690]  [SPEAKER_15]: All for one, and one for all.
[01:33:51.620 --> 01:33:53.460]  [SPEAKER_16]: And one for all.
[01:33:54.900 --> 01:33:57.280]  [SPEAKER_15]: Wake up, come.
[01:33:58.920 --> 01:34:01.180]  [SPEAKER_15]: You hear the call.
[01:34:02.820 --> 01:34:05.600]  [SPEAKER_15]: Your country needs you.
[01:34:06.640 --> 01:34:08.640]  [SPEAKER_15]: To play football.
[01:34:10.920 --> 01:34:13.000]  [SPEAKER_15]: Make a stand.
[01:34:14.700 --> 01:34:16.720]  [SPEAKER_15]: Before you fall.
[01:34:19.030 --> 01:34:20.630]  [SPEAKER_15]: All for one,
[01:34:30.570 --> 01:34:32.190]  [SPEAKER_15]: and one for all.
[01:34:34.170 --> 01:34:36.110]  [SPEAKER_15]: God bless the queen.
[01:34:38.030 --> 01:34:39.830]  [SPEAKER_15]: Her people too.
[01:34:42.010 --> 01:34:44.130]  [SPEAKER_15]: God bless this country.
[01:34:45.810 --> 01:34:47.650]  [SPEAKER_15]: And see us through.
[01:34:50.030 --> 01:34:51.650]  [SPEAKER_15]: All for one.
[01:35:54.420 --> 01:35:55.820]  [SPEAKER_09]: This other evening.
[01:36:01.290 --> 01:36:02.490]  [SPEAKER_03]: This blessed plot.
[01:36:02.850 --> 01:36:03.470]  [SPEAKER_03]: This realm.
[01:36:04.010 --> 01:36:04.630]  [SPEAKER_36]: This England.
[01:36:38.580 --> 01:36:40.240]  [SPEAKER_21]: Remember the thing we live.
[01:36:40.500 --> 01:36:41.860]  [SPEAKER_21]: Remember the address of steps.
[01:36:41.860 --> 01:36:43.660]  [SPEAKER_21]: You wouldn't move.
[01:36:44.060 --> 01:36:45.220]  [SPEAKER_21]: You know the country we live.
[01:37:00.280 --> 01:37:01.380]  [SPEAKER_31]: You wouldn't move.
[01:37:21.880 --> 01:37:25.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: I'd like to address myself to all of the citizens of this fine country of ours.
[01:37:26.260 --> 01:37:28.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: America, we need defence.
[01:37:29.000 --> 01:37:30.100]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need it bad.
[01:37:30.660 --> 01:37:33.800]  [EVILCORLEY]: Remember, a strong defense makes sense.
[01:37:34.240 --> 01:37:37.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: And right now, our defense is in an awful state.
[01:37:37.480 --> 01:37:37.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: Why?
[01:37:38.220 --> 01:37:41.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because not enough of you people care enough to support it.
[01:37:41.600 --> 01:37:47.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: Why, I'll bet there are a good many of you out there right now who have not given us control of your savings accounts yet.
[01:37:47.580 --> 01:37:51.460]  [EVILCORLEY]: Or arranged to have your paychecks mailed directly to us to save time.
[01:37:52.240 --> 01:37:53.520]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need your money.
[01:37:53.800 --> 01:37:59.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need more than UNICEF or Public Television or Amnesty International or any of those other faggots.
[01:37:59.020 --> 01:38:01.200]  [EVILCORLEY]: We give you something they don't.
[01:38:01.340 --> 01:38:02.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: We give you security.
[01:38:03.220 --> 01:38:04.660]  [EVILCORLEY]: Protection against aggression.
[01:38:05.180 --> 01:38:09.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: We have more nuclear warheads, B-52s, and submarines than we can count.
[01:38:10.000 --> 01:38:11.920]  [EVILCORLEY]: And they're all there to protect you.
[01:38:12.520 --> 01:38:17.640]  [EVILCORLEY]: When those Russians come marching over the hills, we're going to have enough ammunition to blow them to the moon.
[01:38:17.940 --> 01:38:19.100]  [EVILCORLEY]: But that's not enough.
[01:38:19.400 --> 01:38:20.840]  [EVILCORLEY]: We want to send them to Mars.
[01:38:20.940 --> 01:38:23.420]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we want to have enough left over for the Chinese.
[01:38:23.780 --> 01:38:25.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: And don't forget those Iranians.
[01:38:25.700 --> 01:38:31.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, there are a lot of communists and homosexuals out there who say they don't like the Defense Department.
[01:38:31.480 --> 01:38:33.240]  [EVILCORLEY]: They say they don't trust us.
[01:38:33.460 --> 01:38:34.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, let me tell you something.
[01:38:35.080 --> 01:38:36.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: This is a free country.
[01:38:36.280 --> 01:38:40.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: And the only way it's going to stay free is if we lock people like that up so they can't do any harm.
[01:38:41.840 --> 01:38:45.260]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's people like that who say that it was wrong to go into Vietnam.
[01:38:46.300 --> 01:38:46.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: Poppycock.
[01:38:46.780 --> 01:38:48.660]  [EVILCORLEY]: A lot of good things came out of that.
[01:38:49.060 --> 01:38:52.080]  [EVILCORLEY]: The Boys and Company C, Coming Home, and The Deer Hunter.
[01:38:52.540 --> 01:38:55.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: Three of the most popular movies of the 1970s.
[01:38:55.360 --> 01:38:56.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: All about Vietnam.
[01:38:56.500 --> 01:39:01.320]  [EVILCORLEY]: And if these subversives had had their way, you wouldn't have been able to enjoy them.
[01:39:01.700 --> 01:39:03.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's the way those pinkos operate.
[01:39:03.620 --> 01:39:07.120]  [EVILCORLEY]: First they take away your entertainment, then they'll take away McDonald's.
[01:39:08.060 --> 01:39:10.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: We know that good wholesome Americans don't want that.
[01:39:10.940 --> 01:39:17.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: So if you send us a little extra money, we'll try to put some of those commies on a rocket ship and send them to Neptune or something.
[01:39:17.580 --> 01:39:18.740]  [EVILCORLEY]: See how they like that.
[01:39:19.240 --> 01:39:22.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: In the meantime, keep on sending us money for our day-to-day operations.
[01:39:23.200 --> 01:39:28.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: If everybody would just cut back and have one meal a day, they'd be able to save up more money to send us.
[01:39:29.580 --> 01:39:35.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, if we get enough by the end of the year, we'll be able to show The Deer Hunter on every plane we send to El Salvador.
[01:39:36.000 --> 01:39:38.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just our way of saying, thanks.
[01:39:52.920 --> 01:39:55.720]  [SPEAKER_36]: We now return to our recording already in progress.
[01:39:56.140 --> 01:39:57.260]  [SPEAKER_02]: What did you say?
[01:39:57.540 --> 01:39:58.480]  [SPEAKER_36]: Can you say deja vu?
[01:39:58.620 --> 01:40:01.140]  [SPEAKER_36]: We now return to our recording already in progress.
[01:40:01.140 --> 01:40:02.700]  [SPEAKER_02]: What did you say?
[01:40:02.980 --> 01:40:03.180]  [SPEAKER_36]: What did you say?
[01:40:03.180 --> 01:40:03.900]  [SPEAKER_36]: Can you say deja vu?
[01:40:04.080 --> 01:40:06.660]  [SPEAKER_36]: We now return to our recording already in progress.
[01:40:07.080 --> 01:40:08.100]  [SPEAKER_02]: What did you say?
[01:40:08.340 --> 01:40:09.300]  [SPEAKER_36]: Can you say deja vu?
[01:40:10.040 --> 01:40:11.360]  [SPEAKER_10]: This is the Vice President.
[01:40:12.820 --> 01:40:14.540]  [SPEAKER_10]: Mr. Vice President, can you hear me?
[01:40:14.860 --> 01:40:15.940]  [SPEAKER_09]: Loud and clear, guy.
[01:40:30.060 --> 01:40:32.880]  [SPEAKER_10]: We have a very enthusiastic crowd here, as you can hear.
[01:40:33.120 --> 01:40:41.500]  [SPEAKER_09]: Well, listen, I just called in to thank you and everybody else for this hard work up there, and I hope we have something to celebrate.
[01:40:41.500 --> 01:40:43.400]  [SPEAKER_09]: Have you got anything yet?
[01:40:43.640 --> 01:40:47.560]  [SPEAKER_09]: And clearly, I didn't get any returns on how we're going to get in all of that.
[01:40:48.020 --> 01:40:54.100]  [SPEAKER_10]: Well, we don't have any returns yet, but I think that it's safe to say that you're going to sweep the state and almost unanimously.
[01:41:02.160 --> 01:41:07.360]  [SPEAKER_09]: That was a great day out there, but I really, I'll let you all go, but I wanted to just call you.
[01:41:07.360 --> 01:41:16.920]  [SPEAKER_09]: And though we ended up not in the hotly contested fight, I thought we had to start every first part.
[01:41:16.920 --> 01:41:21.340]  [SPEAKER_09]: And I'll tell you what, I think it's great to the fall.
[01:41:21.340 --> 01:41:29.980]  [SPEAKER_09]: Well, I think whoever did a gun to try to get his focus with my crowd.
[01:41:31.620 --> 01:41:35.260]  [SPEAKER_10]: We're having some technical difficulties here, as I say.
[01:41:35.960 --> 01:41:38.380]  [SPEAKER_10]: We're not able to read you very well.
[01:41:38.380 --> 01:41:40.700]  [SPEAKER_09]: Well, I'm not saying a hell of a lot either.
[01:41:43.520 --> 01:41:48.040]  [SPEAKER_10]: Could you share with us, if you will, we have quite a few members of the press here.
[01:41:48.520 --> 01:41:52.780]  [SPEAKER_10]: Could you share with us your feeling as to the future in the general election?
[01:41:52.780 --> 01:42:01.380]  [SPEAKER_09]: Well, what I was affixing to say is that, as I look at what's happening on the Democratic side, it means that we have
[01:42:04.630 --> 01:42:09.630]  [SPEAKER_09]: the Democrat, and as soon as they have their nominee, I'll be doing that.
[01:42:09.930 --> 01:42:12.810]  [SPEAKER_09]: People like you and others can take message.
[01:42:13.330 --> 01:42:16.550]  [SPEAKER_09]: And I think it's a very good choice for the voters.
[01:42:21.210 --> 01:42:23.950]  [SPEAKER_10]: Well, we thank you very much for your call.
[01:42:23.950 --> 01:42:25.250]  [SPEAKER_10]: We all love you.
[01:42:25.430 --> 01:42:27.590]  [SPEAKER_10]: We look forward to working alongside of you.
[01:42:27.970 --> 01:42:29.750]  [SPEAKER_10]: You preach loyalty, Mr. Vice President.
[01:42:30.050 --> 01:42:34.490]  [SPEAKER_10]: You practice loyalty, and you're about to see loyalty come back to your favor.
[01:42:43.770 --> 01:42:45.290]  [SPEAKER_10]: Are you still there by any chance?
[01:42:51.580 --> 01:42:53.220]  [SPEAKER_09]: Good evening, Vice President Nixon.
[01:42:53.600 --> 01:42:54.600]  [SPEAKER_09]: Good evening, Mr. Howe.
[01:42:54.600 --> 01:42:58.420]  [SPEAKER_17]: The Lunatic is on the grass.
[01:42:59.080 --> 01:43:02.540]  [SPEAKER_36]: Welches sind die Regenbogenfarben?
[01:43:02.800 --> 01:43:08.160]  [SPEAKER_17]: The Lunatic is in the Jane's class.
[01:43:08.660 --> 01:43:13.200]  [SPEAKER_17]: Got to keep them who is all apart.
[01:43:16.290 --> 01:43:20.850]  [SPEAKER_17]: The Lunatic is in the head.
[01:43:48.210 --> 01:43:57.970]  [SPEAKER_00]: The building is designed to withstand the impact of the Boeing 727 at landing speeds without causing any disruption of any safety-related equipment.
[01:44:23.160 --> 01:44:24.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: Good evening.

[01:49:22.680 --> 01:49:25.060]  [SPEAKER_16]: So I came to search for the eyes.
[01:49:25.400 --> 01:49:26.980]  [SPEAKER_16]: To see what I can do.
[01:49:27.240 --> 01:49:32.040]  [SPEAKER_16]: And just like I said, you send it straight to my head.

[01:51:35.580 --> 01:51:36.700]  [SPEAKER_29]: Morning, class.
[01:51:37.240 --> 01:51:38.360]  [SPEAKER_29]: Morning, teacher.
[01:51:38.820 --> 01:51:42.500]  [SPEAKER_29]: Now, as usual, we will begin with roll call.
[01:51:43.040 --> 01:51:43.840]  [SPEAKER_29]: Who have we here?
[01:51:43.980 --> 01:51:44.480]  [SPEAKER_29]: Smoky?
[01:51:44.680 --> 01:51:45.580]  [SPEAKER_29]: Present teacher.
[01:51:45.800 --> 01:51:46.200]  [SPEAKER_29]: Herbie?
[01:51:46.560 --> 01:51:47.220]  [SPEAKER_29]: Here, teacher.
[01:51:47.480 --> 01:51:47.920]  [SPEAKER_29]: Mila?
[01:51:48.240 --> 01:51:48.980]  [SPEAKER_29]: I'm a teacher.
[01:51:49.420 --> 01:51:49.680]  [SPEAKER_29]: Good.
[01:51:50.320 --> 01:51:54.380]  [SPEAKER_29]: Now, I want us to think about what we did over the holidays.
[01:51:54.640 --> 01:51:55.960]  [SPEAKER_29]: Yes, yes, yes.
[01:51:55.960 --> 01:51:59.140]  [SPEAKER_30]: I learned about family in the hills, teacher.
[01:51:59.860 --> 01:52:06.140]  [SPEAKER_30]: Where they used land and never used to use before and grow something that earned plenty of money, teacher.
[01:52:07.080 --> 01:52:08.840]  [SPEAKER_30]: Something called...
[01:52:15.300 --> 01:52:16.660]  [SPEAKER_16]: What about you, teacher?
[01:52:17.500 --> 01:52:18.100]  [SPEAKER_05]: Smoky?
[01:52:18.920 --> 01:52:21.660]  [SPEAKER_05]: I was learning about the said things, teacher.
[01:52:22.920 --> 01:52:25.320]  [SPEAKER_05]: I tried some studies, teacher.
[01:52:25.320 --> 01:52:25.480]  [SPEAKER_05]: What about you, teacher?
[01:52:29.180 --> 01:52:29.500]  [SPEAKER_05]: I'm a teacher.
[01:52:52.380 --> 01:52:52.940]  [SPEAKER_34]: I'm a teacher.
[01:52:55.180 --> 01:53:00.340]  [SPEAKER_34]: I'm Well teacher, over the holidays teacher, I have been studying about music teacher.
[01:53:00.840 --> 01:53:05.140]  [SPEAKER_34]: So teacher, give me some rhythm, let me dance.
[01:53:05.380 --> 01:53:07.160]  [SPEAKER_34]: A long, long time in the peace.
[01:53:07.780 --> 01:53:08.900]  [SPEAKER_34]: Rhythm teacher.
[01:53:09.480 --> 01:53:11.240]  [SPEAKER_34]: Rhythm with music teacher.
[01:53:11.760 --> 01:53:18.100]  [SPEAKER_34]: Teacher, I get to understand, you know, that the same thing here what Smokey them talking about teacher.
[01:53:18.260 --> 01:53:20.280]  [SPEAKER_34]: Go well with music teacher.
[01:53:21.100 --> 01:53:23.060]  [SPEAKER_34]: And teacher, that makes sense.
[01:53:35.350 --> 01:53:37.870]  [SPEAKER_30]: And teacher, I see this thing, let's make you feel.
[01:53:41.310 --> 01:53:42.670]  [SPEAKER_30]: You don't believe me teacher.
[01:53:51.140 --> 01:53:54.640]  [SPEAKER_30]: Sit here teacher, take one little drop.
[01:53:57.850 --> 01:53:58.330]  [SPEAKER_05]: Boom!
[01:54:01.030 --> 01:54:03.390]  [SPEAKER_05]: What is this class coming to?
[01:54:05.370 --> 01:54:05.710]  [SPEAKER_05]: Swokey!
[01:54:06.910 --> 01:54:07.590]  [SPEAKER_05]: Kirby!
[01:54:08.070 --> 01:54:08.590]  [SPEAKER_34]: Teacher!
[01:54:09.110 --> 01:54:09.610]  [SPEAKER_34]: Yes.
[01:54:10.070 --> 01:54:11.930]  [SPEAKER_34]: I tell you teacher, you have to believe.
[01:54:12.270 --> 01:54:13.530]  [SPEAKER_34]: Because teacher!
[01:54:14.190 --> 01:54:16.230]  [SPEAKER_34]: Hey brother man, hey what I say?
[01:54:16.390 --> 01:54:18.410]  [SPEAKER_34]: Give her some of your says.
[01:54:20.370 --> 01:54:21.050]  [SPEAKER_34]: Mila!
[01:54:22.210 --> 01:54:23.670]  [SPEAKER_34]: What are you talking about?
[01:54:24.590 --> 01:54:26.150]  [SPEAKER_34]: It makes sense teacher.
[01:54:26.610 --> 01:54:27.830]  [SPEAKER_34]: It really makes sense.
[01:55:14.240 --> 01:55:18.580]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that is Reader Marley with one draw.
[01:55:19.740 --> 01:55:21.340]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yes, only one.
[01:55:21.680 --> 01:55:29.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that comes to us here at 5.27 in the morning on listener-supported WBAI.
[01:55:29.340 --> 01:55:32.180]  [EVILCORLEY]: We also heard from Brain Damage Incorporated.
[01:55:32.780 --> 01:55:41.240]  [EVILCORLEY]: We heard, starting with the Defense Department, Bush in 88, and your problem is correct.
[01:55:41.240 --> 01:55:50.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: And up on top, Big Audio Dynamite, some selections from their new LP, including Union Jack and Rewind.
[01:55:51.240 --> 01:55:56.900]  [EVILCORLEY]: And time for us to rewind a bit and get ready for the morning hours.
[01:55:57.100 --> 01:56:12.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: If your morning in any way is going to get you across the Triborough Bridge, well, you're out of luck, I'm afraid, because the Triborough Bridge is closed.
[01:56:13.100 --> 01:56:20.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: Some silly people spilled gasoline all over the East River last night, and nobody can get through.
[01:56:20.060 --> 01:56:23.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: So you're going to have to either take public transportation or find another way.
[01:56:24.900 --> 01:56:30.840]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yes, well, we mull over the consequences of this latest ecological disaster.
[01:56:32.120 --> 01:56:36.360]  [EVILCORLEY]: Nothing like a bit of cheery news to wake up to, but that's just the way it is, isn't it?
[01:56:36.800 --> 01:56:38.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's 5.29 now.
[01:56:38.800 --> 01:56:45.040]  [EVILCORLEY]: I'm Emmanuel Goldstein, filling in for Don Sheridan, who will be back in two weeks.
[01:56:46.480 --> 01:56:55.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: And coming up later on today, Undercurrence will be on at 8 o'clock, following the Morning Magazine, which begins at 6.
[01:56:55.820 --> 01:57:02.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: And a special program today at 1.30 p.m., The Reagan Legacy in the Caribbean and Latin America.
[01:57:02.140 --> 01:57:05.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just some of the programs we bring you here on Listener Support at WBAI.
[01:57:06.360 --> 01:57:11.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that's not hollow talk, because we need our listeners to support us.
[01:57:11.340 --> 01:57:20.320]  [EVILCORLEY]: And if you are a listener, and obviously you are if you're listening, give us a call and become part of WBAI by showing your support.
[01:57:20.320 --> 01:57:25.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: 2-1-2-2-7-9-3-4-100, Every Person Matters.
[01:57:25.700 --> 01:57:27.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's kind of the theme here.
[01:57:27.860 --> 01:57:30.120]  [EVILCORLEY]: Every mind is meaningful.
[01:57:30.640 --> 01:57:33.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: But we need to know that you're out there.
[01:57:33.860 --> 01:57:35.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need your support.
[01:57:35.420 --> 01:57:39.040]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that keeps us on the air, and that keeps the commercials off the air.
[01:57:39.320 --> 01:57:47.720]  [EVILCORLEY]: So do give us a call, 2-1-2-2-7-9-3-4-100, and show your support for listener-supported WBAI.
[01:57:47.720 --> 01:58:17.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: Anyway, well, winding down my trip in various parts of Europe, well, I had some articles to look at, quite a few articles, including the Battle of All Saints Road and all that, but possibly the most educational thing that came out of my journeys for the last six weeks throughout the various cities and countries.
[01:58:17.480 --> 01:58:22.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: I happened to be in London on the 50th anniversary of World War II.
[01:58:22.720 --> 01:58:25.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: And believe me, that's meaningful.
[01:58:25.160 --> 01:58:30.200]  [EVILCORLEY]: That means something over there that it just doesn't mean over here.
[01:58:30.420 --> 01:58:38.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that's our loss, because there's a lot we don't understand about what war is.
[01:58:38.680 --> 01:58:48.540]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's war in your own backyard, and even the people of the young generation understand this a lot better than I think we do.
[01:58:49.420 --> 01:59:00.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: I was fortunate to be there, to see all the TV programs, to read all the accounts in the newspapers, and I just hope some of it rubs off on us.
[01:59:00.880 --> 01:59:13.360]  [EVILCORLEY]: They're very determined to avoid any kind of a situation like that in the future, and they're very wary of where America is leading them.
[01:59:13.620 --> 01:59:19.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: One person in Hamburg said, take a good look around you before your country destroys it.
[01:59:20.900 --> 01:59:31.460]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, you can only fly your airplanes over people so many times before they start to ask why, and what's it going to lead to, and where is it going to end up.
[01:59:32.720 --> 01:59:37.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: And so, some thoughts to ponder for me, certainly.
[01:59:38.380 --> 01:59:44.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: And, oh, I did see a very, rather frightening thing.
[01:59:44.020 --> 01:59:49.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I don't want to give out the city, because that might get the person who did this in trouble.
[01:59:50.240 --> 02:00:05.240]  [EVILCORLEY]: But in one of the places I was visiting, one of the places that has a subway system, a friend of mine, well, an acquaintance of mine, happens to acquire keys very easily to certain things.
[02:00:05.380 --> 02:00:09.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: And one of the keys he managed to acquire was the master key to the subway system.
[02:00:09.840 --> 02:00:14.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: It could open every door in the subway and get all kinds of incredible places.
[02:00:14.600 --> 02:00:22.380]  [EVILCORLEY]: But there was one station in particular that he was able to open the door to, and there were these stairs going down.
[02:00:23.460 --> 02:00:34.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: And he took me along one night, and we went down these stairs, down through another set of doors, and then we turned on a light switch.
[02:00:35.660 --> 02:00:37.740]  [EVILCORLEY]: And what do you think we saw there?
[02:00:39.260 --> 02:00:51.940]  [EVILCORLEY]: An entire huge room filled with generators, and another room filled with cots, and another room filled with canned food.
[02:00:54.930 --> 02:00:57.670]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's a nuclear fallout shelter underneath the metro.
[02:00:58.390 --> 02:01:03.850]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's kept very, very up-to-date.
[02:01:05.250 --> 02:01:17.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: And what's really incredible about it is the ease with which a lot of people are able to get in there and explore, apparently without the knowledge of the people in charge of the whole thing.
[02:01:17.370 --> 02:01:23.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I guess most people in the city don't know that this thing even exists, but it does.
[02:01:23.790 --> 02:01:29.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it looks like they're very prepared for a nuclear confrontation, or any kind of a confrontation.
[02:01:29.970 --> 02:01:44.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: There is a device that my friend could have utilized, actually, simply by turning a switch that closes off the entire subway system, or at least the tracks going into that particular station.
[02:01:44.670 --> 02:01:55.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: And a huge wall comes crashing down onto the tracks and seals off the fallout shelter completely.
[02:01:57.590 --> 02:02:01.110]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's incredible the amount of thought that has gone into this.
[02:02:01.170 --> 02:02:17.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: And when you go back up and look down the tracks, you can see where the wall is and where it would come crashing down right onto the tracks and seal off the outside world from this house of salvation, I guess you would call it.
[02:02:18.150 --> 02:02:18.870]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's frightening.
[02:02:18.870 --> 02:02:24.030]  [EVILCORLEY]: People in Europe live with the prospect of war and they live with the memory of war.
[02:02:25.230 --> 02:02:32.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: And sometimes I feel like we are just blithely going down our path, whistling, not knowing what we're getting ourselves into.
[02:02:34.990 --> 02:02:41.810]  [EVILCORLEY]: We would do well to communicate more with both our neighbors in the west and our neighbors in the east.
[02:02:42.750 --> 02:02:45.450]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because we're all neighbors in the world right now.
[02:02:46.150 --> 02:02:46.990]  [EVILCORLEY]: Well, enough of that.
[02:02:46.990 --> 02:02:48.550]  [EVILCORLEY]: Yeah, it's 25 minutes to 6 o'clock.
[02:02:48.710 --> 02:02:52.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: Again, our telephone number is 212-279-3400.
[02:02:52.630 --> 02:02:54.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we do need your support.
[02:02:54.590 --> 02:02:57.370]  [EVILCORLEY]: This is the middle of our fall marathon.
[02:02:58.170 --> 02:03:04.070]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we are at, I believe, $67,920.
[02:03:05.310 --> 02:03:13.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we'd like to bring that up certainly towards $70,000 by the time a sun comes up, if it's not up already.
[02:03:13.510 --> 02:03:14.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: I don't quite know.
[02:03:14.730 --> 02:03:15.350]  [EVILCORLEY]: There's no window here.
[02:03:15.350 --> 02:03:18.770]  [EVILCORLEY]: But the number, 212-279-3400.
[02:03:18.910 --> 02:03:19.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: We have volunteers.
[02:03:19.630 --> 02:03:39.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: And I think that says something for the spirit of the people that are affiliated with this radio station for our listeners for there to actually be somebody here at 535 in the morning waiting to answer your call and take a pledge.
[02:03:39.770 --> 02:03:41.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's a show of unity.
[02:03:41.490 --> 02:03:47.310]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that's what's so important these days is unity because there's a lot of bad stuff going on.
[02:03:47.430 --> 02:03:49.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: But there's also a lot of good things.
[02:03:49.850 --> 02:03:51.690]  [EVILCORLEY]: And there's a lot of good people in this world.
[02:03:52.170 --> 02:03:53.630]  [EVILCORLEY]: I met quite a few of them.
[02:04:34.860 --> 02:04:39.100]  [SPEAKER_03]: people Be carrying the radiation back towards the Soviet Union.
[02:05:19.550 --> 02:05:22.750]  [SPEAKER_16]: To me, you sit with your knees together.
[02:05:23.490 --> 02:05:26.410]  [SPEAKER_16]: All the time you're breathless pain.
[02:05:30.090 --> 02:05:32.590]  [SPEAKER_16]: Don't ask me to apologize.
[02:05:33.650 --> 02:05:36.070]  [SPEAKER_16]: I won't ask you to forgive me.
[02:05:37.070 --> 02:05:39.130]  [SPEAKER_16]: You're not gonna go down.
[02:05:40.490 --> 02:05:42.770]  [SPEAKER_16]: You're gonna go with me.
[02:05:43.690 --> 02:05:46.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: Don't you know I got some bully boys out.
[02:05:46.990 --> 02:05:50.170]  [SPEAKER_16]: Changing someone's face, you'll be right.
[02:05:50.710 --> 02:05:53.550]  [SPEAKER_16]: Sitting with my toy room loud.
[02:05:54.130 --> 02:05:57.050]  [SPEAKER_16]: Punishing my precious china.
[02:05:57.550 --> 02:06:00.150]  [SPEAKER_16]: Don't you know I'm an animal.
[02:06:00.870 --> 02:06:04.090]  [SPEAKER_16]: But don't you know I can't stand up, stand up.
[02:06:04.410 --> 02:06:07.370]  [SPEAKER_16]: You can't show me any kind of nothing.
[02:06:07.610 --> 02:06:10.830]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't know already.
[02:06:13.470 --> 02:06:16.750]  [SPEAKER_16]: Heaven, heaven, don't ask me to apologize.
[02:06:18.030 --> 02:06:20.450]  [SPEAKER_16]: I won't ask you to forgive me.
[02:06:21.610 --> 02:06:23.530]  [SPEAKER_16]: You're not gonna go down.
[02:06:25.150 --> 02:06:26.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: You're gonna go with me.
[02:06:53.760 --> 02:06:56.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: We're here today to talk to Archibald McFranklin.
[02:06:56.680 --> 02:06:57.800]  [EVILCORLEY]: Arch is going to tell us...
[02:06:57.800 --> 02:06:58.820]  [SPEAKER_33]: Ah, excuse me.
[02:06:59.020 --> 02:07:01.560]  [SPEAKER_33]: I would rather prefer you not call me Arch.
[02:07:01.780 --> 02:07:01.980]  [SPEAKER_33]: Oh?
[02:07:02.040 --> 02:07:04.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: I can't tell you how much I despise that name.
[02:07:04.300 --> 02:07:04.900]  [EVILCORLEY]: Oh, I see.
[02:07:04.960 --> 02:07:06.440]  [SPEAKER_33]: All my life I've had to put up with that.
[02:07:06.500 --> 02:07:08.980]  [SPEAKER_33]: You understand, it's not like I'm trying to be pompous or anything.
[02:07:08.980 --> 02:07:10.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: No, no, no, that's perfectly alright.
[02:07:10.660 --> 02:07:10.860]  [SPEAKER_33]: Good.
[02:07:11.100 --> 02:07:12.920]  [SPEAKER_33]: I suppose Archie is right out, too.
[02:07:13.060 --> 02:07:16.000]  [SPEAKER_33]: Please, please, just call me Mr. McFranklin with a capital F.
[02:07:16.480 --> 02:07:20.020]  [SPEAKER_33]: Heck, you can even call me Mac, or Frank, or anything, really.
[02:07:20.700 --> 02:07:26.800]  [EVILCORLEY]: Alright, well, we're here today with Mr. McFranklin, who's going to tell us about an organization that he started up over the summer.
[02:07:26.800 --> 02:07:28.800]  [SPEAKER_33]: Actually, I think Mac would be the best.
[02:07:28.980 --> 02:07:31.020]  [SPEAKER_33]: Mr. McFranklin with a capital F.
[02:07:31.220 --> 02:07:32.860]  [SPEAKER_33]: It sounds too damn formal.
[02:07:33.300 --> 02:07:34.440]  [SPEAKER_33]: Mr. McFranklin...
[02:07:34.440 --> 02:07:35.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: Uh, Mac, that is.
[02:07:35.240 --> 02:07:35.620]  [SPEAKER_33]: Thank you, Mac.
[02:07:35.800 --> 02:07:38.520]  [SPEAKER_33]: ...has been working on a brand new movement in this country.
[02:07:38.660 --> 02:07:40.320]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, let me just set you straight on something here.
[02:07:40.440 --> 02:07:42.080]  [SPEAKER_33]: You can't work on a movement.
[02:07:42.560 --> 02:07:43.980]  [SPEAKER_33]: A movement has to occur.
[02:07:44.740 --> 02:07:44.900]  [SPEAKER_33]: Uh-huh.
[02:07:44.980 --> 02:07:46.640]  [SPEAKER_33]: It's not something that can be planned.
[02:07:46.640 --> 02:07:50.580]  [SPEAKER_33]: It has to be the spontaneous expression of a large mass of people.
[02:07:51.060 --> 02:07:51.320]  [SPEAKER_33]: Oh.
[02:07:51.940 --> 02:07:55.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, Mac, why don't you just tell the folks at home what you have going?
[02:07:55.280 --> 02:07:56.220]  [SPEAKER_33]: No, I think I'll do that.
[02:07:56.600 --> 02:08:00.940]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, ladies and gentlemen, there is a major problem facing everybody who speaks the English language.
[02:08:01.120 --> 02:08:02.300]  [SPEAKER_33]: Do you know what that problem is?
[02:08:02.880 --> 02:08:04.260]  [SPEAKER_33]: We're running out of vowels.
[02:08:04.680 --> 02:08:06.680]  [SPEAKER_33]: Okay, could you perhaps explain that a little?
[02:08:06.980 --> 02:08:07.840]  [SPEAKER_33]: I plan to.
[02:08:08.040 --> 02:08:10.520]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, folks, a vowel is a precious thing.
[02:08:10.680 --> 02:08:12.660]  [SPEAKER_33]: There aren't all that many of them to start with.
[02:08:12.760 --> 02:08:15.140]  [SPEAKER_33]: There's A, E, I, O, and U.
[02:08:15.380 --> 02:08:16.420]  [SPEAKER_33]: And sometimes Y?
[02:08:16.600 --> 02:08:19.220]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, yeah, on occasion, but not nearly as much as it used to be.
[02:08:19.280 --> 02:08:23.400]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, these vowels, they're like bridges, if you will, that connect land masses together.
[02:08:23.400 --> 02:08:28.860]  [SPEAKER_33]: The land masses I'm referring to are, of course, consonants, and there are a whopping 21 of those.
[02:08:29.000 --> 02:08:29.140]  [SPEAKER_33]: Mm-hmm.
[02:08:29.300 --> 02:08:32.660]  [SPEAKER_33]: So, as you can see, the vowel is already an endangered species.
[02:08:32.860 --> 02:08:33.820]  [SPEAKER_33]: All right, I understand.
[02:08:34.080 --> 02:08:34.120]  [SPEAKER_33]: Mm-hmm.
[02:08:34.200 --> 02:08:37.860]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, what leads you to believe that there is a more immediate problem?
[02:08:37.860 --> 02:08:42.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, the vowel has lived in relative peace ever since it was first invented.
[02:08:42.600 --> 02:08:47.680]  [SPEAKER_33]: It was only natural that if you had a couple of consonants, you'd link them together with a vowel, or sometimes two.
[02:08:48.160 --> 02:08:49.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: For instance, I'll give you an example.
[02:08:49.540 --> 02:08:51.420]  [SPEAKER_33]: Let's put a B and a D together.
[02:08:51.760 --> 02:08:52.080]  [SPEAKER_33]: Okay.
[02:08:52.400 --> 02:08:53.060]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, what do you have?
[02:08:54.620 --> 02:08:57.620]  [SPEAKER_33]: There's really not all that much you can do with that, and it doesn't sound all that nice.
[02:08:57.860 --> 02:08:58.320]  [SPEAKER_33]: Does it?
[02:08:59.000 --> 02:08:59.780]  [SPEAKER_33]: Try it out.
[02:09:00.800 --> 02:09:01.740]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yes, you're right.
[02:09:02.020 --> 02:09:02.060]  [SPEAKER_33]: Right.
[02:09:02.440 --> 02:09:04.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, here comes a vowel running to our rescue.
[02:09:04.460 --> 02:09:05.040]  [SPEAKER_33]: It's an A.
[02:09:05.240 --> 02:09:09.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: And that A implants itself right in the middle of that awful-sounding word, and what do we have?
[02:09:09.420 --> 02:09:12.960]  [SPEAKER_33]: The word bad, which is an apt description of what we had had before.
[02:09:13.560 --> 02:09:13.960]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yeah.
[02:09:14.680 --> 02:09:15.940]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, here comes another vowel.
[02:09:16.220 --> 02:09:17.120]  [SPEAKER_33]: This one's an E.
[02:09:17.300 --> 02:09:19.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: It does the same thing, and we have the word bed.
[02:09:19.660 --> 02:09:20.740]  [SPEAKER_33]: Here comes an I.
[02:09:21.240 --> 02:09:22.200]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, we have bid.
[02:09:22.460 --> 02:09:26.940]  [SPEAKER_33]: An O makes bod, which I believe is a slang expression among young people.
[02:09:26.940 --> 02:09:29.000]  [SPEAKER_33]: And U creates the word bud.
[02:09:29.320 --> 02:09:30.740]  [SPEAKER_33]: It's absolutely marvelous.
[02:09:31.320 --> 02:09:32.640]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yes, it certainly is.
[02:09:32.740 --> 02:09:36.340]  [SPEAKER_33]: How often have you wanted to scream, Oh, thank God for vowels!
[02:09:36.640 --> 02:09:38.640]  [SPEAKER_33]: Not as often as I should, I must admit.
[02:09:38.760 --> 02:09:41.900]  [SPEAKER_33]: So, the problem of appreciation is an ever-present one.
[02:09:42.580 --> 02:09:47.000]  [SPEAKER_33]: But to answer your question about immediacy, a new problem has begun to manifest itself.
[02:09:47.160 --> 02:09:47.320]  [SPEAKER_33]: Oh.
[02:09:47.920 --> 02:09:48.060]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yeah.
[02:09:48.200 --> 02:09:49.960]  [SPEAKER_33]: Did you ever look at the listings in the telephone book?
[02:09:50.980 --> 02:09:51.380]  [SPEAKER_33]: Hm?
[02:09:51.780 --> 02:09:53.480]  [SPEAKER_33]: Oh, I thought that was a rhetorical question.
[02:09:53.640 --> 02:09:54.360]  [SPEAKER_33]: It wasn't.
[02:09:54.560 --> 02:09:55.260]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yes, I have.
[02:09:55.260 --> 02:09:59.660]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well then, you must notice that next to a person's name, there's generally an address.
[02:10:00.040 --> 02:10:02.300]  [SPEAKER_33]: That's true, there is, in little tiny print.
[02:10:02.480 --> 02:10:04.860]  [SPEAKER_33]: Right, but that's not where the problem lies.
[02:10:05.080 --> 02:10:08.620]  [SPEAKER_33]: The problem is that every word in the address has the vowels plucked right out of it.
[02:10:08.760 --> 02:10:09.420]  [SPEAKER_33]: You don't say.
[02:10:09.540 --> 02:10:09.740]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yeah.
[02:10:10.100 --> 02:10:13.380]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, let's say someone lived on 14 Saddlebrook Road in Rochester.
[02:10:13.840 --> 02:10:15.560]  [SPEAKER_33]: Now, do you know how that would read in the phone book?
[02:10:15.740 --> 02:10:16.020]  [SPEAKER_33]: How?
[02:10:16.020 --> 02:10:18.040]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, the 14 would be numeric.
[02:10:18.340 --> 02:10:19.620]  [SPEAKER_33]: And they don't touch those.
[02:10:19.860 --> 02:10:23.020]  [SPEAKER_33]: But the rest of it would read something like, Siddelbrook Rood.
[02:10:23.340 --> 02:10:23.800]  [SPEAKER_33]: Rookster.
[02:10:24.260 --> 02:10:27.080]  [SPEAKER_33]: I don't know about you, but that doesn't exactly roll off my tongue.
[02:10:27.500 --> 02:10:30.660]  [EVILCORLEY]: No, it sounds rather harsh and unpleasant.
[02:10:31.640 --> 02:10:39.840]  [EVILCORLEY]: Now, do you and your followers believe that the elimination of the vowel is intentional and perhaps part of a master plan of some sort?
[02:10:39.840 --> 02:10:41.120]  [SPEAKER_33]: Oh, yes, of course.
[02:10:41.480 --> 02:10:50.760]  [SPEAKER_33]: There's no doubt in my mind whatsoever that this is only the beginning of a long and dark age where the vowel will be cut back in ever-increasing numbers and eventually eliminated altogether.
[02:10:51.260 --> 02:10:55.800]  [SPEAKER_33]: One day, it'll be illegal to use vowels in any form unless, of course, we do something now.
[02:10:56.280 --> 02:10:59.340]  [SPEAKER_33]: But why, for heaven's sake, would anyone want to destroy vowels?
[02:10:59.520 --> 02:11:00.760]  [SPEAKER_33]: It does seem a bit strange.
[02:11:00.760 --> 02:11:01.780]  [SPEAKER_33]: I'll have to grant you that.
[02:11:02.120 --> 02:11:08.780]  [SPEAKER_33]: But, if you look at what's been happening in the 20th century, you'll see there's a lot of emphasis lately on efficiency and quickness.
[02:11:09.960 --> 02:11:12.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: Computers, robots, mechanical perfection.
[02:11:12.880 --> 02:11:15.360]  [SPEAKER_33]: Slowly, the human element is being wiped out.
[02:11:15.840 --> 02:11:18.520]  [SPEAKER_33]: Everything's got to be fast and accurate or it won't be tolerated.
[02:11:18.860 --> 02:11:22.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: In other words, the days of imperfection are grinding to a halt.
[02:11:22.560 --> 02:11:24.360]  [SPEAKER_33]: But what does that have to do with vowels?
[02:11:24.700 --> 02:11:28.060]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, you see, vowels take more time to say.
[02:11:28.300 --> 02:11:34.720]  [SPEAKER_33]: It takes longer to say anti-disestablishmentarianism than it does to say anti-disestablishmentarianism.
[02:11:34.720 --> 02:11:40.280]  [SPEAKER_33]: Therefore, the latter is considered more efficient, more time-saving, and hence, more desirable.
[02:11:40.580 --> 02:11:42.560]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, that's downright frightening.
[02:11:42.720 --> 02:11:44.540]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yes, it is, and it's downright ignorant, too.
[02:11:44.700 --> 02:11:47.360]  [SPEAKER_33]: Because without vowels, there's a lot you can't do.
[02:11:47.880 --> 02:11:49.140]  [SPEAKER_33]: Let's say you want a scream.
[02:11:49.340 --> 02:11:55.360]  [SPEAKER_33]: A scream is composed of the letter A, repeated many times, or the letter E, depending on your personal preference.
[02:11:57.540 --> 02:11:59.200]  [SPEAKER_33]: That will be a sound of the past.
[02:11:59.340 --> 02:12:01.560]  [SPEAKER_33]: And I just wonder what they're thinking of replacing it with.
[02:12:01.720 --> 02:12:02.480]  [SPEAKER_33]: The letter S?
[02:12:04.980 --> 02:12:06.320]  [SPEAKER_33]: That won't make a good scream.
[02:12:06.600 --> 02:12:07.760]  [SPEAKER_33]: Nor would the letter B.
[02:12:09.220 --> 02:12:11.540]  [SPEAKER_33]: You can't even keep that going longer than a second.
[02:12:11.780 --> 02:12:12.500]  [SPEAKER_33]: Yes, but...
[02:12:12.500 --> 02:12:15.480]  [SPEAKER_33]: Or let's just say you have something really good to eat.
[02:12:15.720 --> 02:12:17.300]  [SPEAKER_33]: I'm used to saying...
[02:12:18.380 --> 02:12:19.980]  [SPEAKER_33]: There are a lot of A's in there.
[02:12:20.200 --> 02:12:24.240]  [SPEAKER_33]: And there's just no way you'll be able to communicate that expression without a vowel.
[02:12:24.240 --> 02:12:24.900]  [SPEAKER_16]: Hmm.
[02:12:25.220 --> 02:12:27.420]  [SPEAKER_33]: And that's just the tip of Ickberg.
[02:12:28.440 --> 02:12:29.000]  [SPEAKER_33]: The what?
[02:12:29.260 --> 02:12:30.140]  [SPEAKER_33]: That's Iceberg.
[02:12:30.320 --> 02:12:31.300]  [SPEAKER_33]: You see how hard it's gonna be?
[02:12:31.480 --> 02:12:33.380]  [SPEAKER_33]: It sounds almost like a foreign language.
[02:12:33.480 --> 02:12:34.900]  [SPEAKER_33]: I'm very glad you picked up on that.
[02:12:35.160 --> 02:12:36.720]  [SPEAKER_33]: Have you ever looked at the Russian alphabet?
[02:12:37.000 --> 02:12:37.560]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, no.
[02:12:37.620 --> 02:12:38.460]  [SPEAKER_33]: Not lately, I don't think.
[02:12:38.620 --> 02:12:40.260]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, there aren't many vowels in there.
[02:12:40.480 --> 02:12:42.380]  [SPEAKER_33]: Rather an odd coincidence, wouldn't you say?
[02:12:43.200 --> 02:12:47.140]  [SPEAKER_33]: Are you implying that the Russians are behind the elimination of the English vowel?
[02:12:47.300 --> 02:12:55.240]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, the purpose of this vowel movement of ours is not to cast blame or raise suspicions, although the Russians could certainly be considered prime suspects.
[02:12:55.560 --> 02:12:58.480]  [SPEAKER_33]: Do you know they even have a backwards R just like little kids draw?
[02:12:59.020 --> 02:13:01.260]  [SPEAKER_33]: I think world literacy is their goal.
[02:13:01.680 --> 02:13:05.520]  [SPEAKER_33]: But that's not necessarily the view of the entire vowel movement, is it?
[02:13:05.760 --> 02:13:07.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, gosh, I don't know.
[02:13:07.420 --> 02:13:09.800]  [SPEAKER_33]: I'll see my wife tonight and I'll ask her what she thinks.
[02:13:10.260 --> 02:13:11.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: You mean...
[02:13:11.180 --> 02:13:16.180]  [SPEAKER_33]: Well, you see, we're not exactly a massive movement just yet, but you wait and see.
[02:13:16.180 --> 02:13:17.820]  [SPEAKER_33]: They'll write books about us someday.
[02:13:18.220 --> 02:13:20.600]  [SPEAKER_33]: I just hope they'll have lots of vowels in them.
[02:13:21.360 --> 02:13:26.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: Archibald McFranklin, thank you for being with us today and good luck saving the vowel.
[02:13:26.720 --> 02:13:27.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: Thanks.
[02:13:27.420 --> 02:13:27.680]  [EVILCORLEY]: Good bit.
[02:13:28.020 --> 02:13:28.340]  [EVILCORLEY]: What?
[02:13:28.580 --> 02:13:29.260]  [EVILCORLEY]: Only kidding.
[02:13:29.260 --> 02:13:30.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: Every
[02:14:01.940 --> 02:14:05.420]  [SPEAKER_16]: minute, every day and night.
[02:14:07.140 --> 02:14:57.030]  [SPEAKER_16]: And I want you to know That whatever you do And wherever you go Remember Someone loves you, honey No matter what Just be my guy Someone loves you, honey More than anything in the world I'm so glad I'm the one That you come through when you need someone Yeah That's what my love is for

[02:16:03.940 --> 02:16:36.920]  [SPEAKER_16]: I just wanted to be my one And I want you to be my girl And I want you to be my one I just want you to be my girl It's Glücklich in the world.
[02:16:38.720 --> 02:16:42.280]  [SPEAKER_16]: I'm so glad I'm the one.
[02:16:44.730 --> 02:16:46.890]  [SPEAKER_16]: Isn't it true though?
[02:16:46.890 --> 02:16:48.590]  [SPEAKER_16]: Keep hearing the hearing from home.
[02:16:49.990 --> 02:16:50.210]  [SPEAKER_16]: Yeah.
[02:16:51.070 --> 02:16:53.510]  [SPEAKER_16]: That's what my love is for.
[02:16:54.930 --> 02:16:56.670]  [SPEAKER_16]: It's a show that
[02:17:02.630 --> 02:17:05.370]  [SPEAKER_16]: I don't want love so hardly.
[02:17:07.270 --> 02:17:08.410]  [SPEAKER_16]: Thanks man.
[02:17:09.950 --> 02:17:13.410]  [SPEAKER_16]: I just want you to be my guy.
[02:17:14.090 --> 02:17:16.990]  [SPEAKER_16]: Someone loves you, honey.
[02:17:18.190 --> 02:17:22.690]  [SPEAKER_16]: More than anything in the world.

[02:17:30.780 --> 02:17:34.240]  [SPEAKER_13]: Love can make you sad and love can make you mad.
[02:17:35.520 --> 02:17:37.880]  [SPEAKER_13]: Sometimes love can make you glad.
[02:17:37.880 --> 02:17:41.340]  [SPEAKER_13]: But I really and truly don't want to lose the love I have.
[02:17:52.890 --> 02:17:55.670]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can me say one time, daughter, one time.
[02:17:56.110 --> 02:17:58.550]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can me say two times, daughter, two times.
[02:17:59.110 --> 02:18:01.670]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can me say three times, daughter, three times.
[02:18:02.110 --> 02:18:05.010]  [SPEAKER_13]: You say, make up your mind, don't stay behind.
[02:18:05.350 --> 02:18:07.930]  [SPEAKER_13]: You say, make up your mind, don't stay behind.
[02:18:08.110 --> 02:18:10.470]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can me say one time, daughter, one time.
[02:18:10.810 --> 02:18:13.530]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can me say two times, daughter, two times.
[02:18:13.530 --> 02:18:15.670]  [SPEAKER_13]: Make up your mind.
[02:18:15.670 --> 02:18:17.570]  [SPEAKER_13]: Don't stay behind me, say no?
[02:18:17.970 --> 02:18:21.130]  [SPEAKER_13]: Someone loves you, honey.
[02:18:27.990 --> 02:18:52.080]  [SPEAKER_13]: A little pause... and we are back.
[02:18:52.080 --> 02:18:57.580]  [SPEAKER_13]: Love is not tobacco, love is not your bones Cause I know I love your own, you know?
[02:18:58.720 --> 02:19:01.260]  [SPEAKER_13]: Can't eta in a bone pressing characteristics?
[02:19:01.740 --> 02:19:03.360]  [SPEAKER_13]: Don't you want your pain, don't you want the bottom zone?
[02:19:06.200 --> 02:19:18.200]  [SPEAKER_13]: Someone loves you, honey In a disseline-you- rate, i may confirm Can i say leave your troubles behind
[02:19:29.460 --> 02:19:31.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: His name is Prince Mohammed.
[02:19:32.120 --> 02:19:34.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we heard June Lodge before that.
[02:19:34.780 --> 02:19:36.340]  [EVILCORLEY]: Rumor has it they've never met.
[02:19:36.960 --> 02:19:43.660]  [EVILCORLEY]: But they did a song together, Someone Loves You, Honey, here on WBAI in New York.
[02:19:44.200 --> 02:19:48.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: Thanks very much to the people who have called in with the pledge.
[02:19:49.020 --> 02:19:51.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: But we still want you to call in.
[02:19:52.300 --> 02:19:55.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: So just put aside what you're doing for the moment.
[02:19:55.920 --> 02:19:57.320]  [EVILCORLEY]: It won't take long.
[02:19:57.620 --> 02:20:02.940]  [EVILCORLEY]: It certainly won't take as long as trying to drive into Manhattan if you want to use the Triborough Bridge today.
[02:20:03.640 --> 02:20:04.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: Nasty business there.
[02:20:05.260 --> 02:20:07.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: Spilling gas all over the East River.
[02:20:07.660 --> 02:20:09.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: Triborough Bridge is closed.
[02:20:09.280 --> 02:20:10.540]  [EVILCORLEY]: Don't try using it.
[02:20:11.940 --> 02:20:14.260]  [EVILCORLEY]: Unless you're in for a day of adventure.
[02:20:16.800 --> 02:20:18.080]  [EVILCORLEY]: 279-3400.
[02:20:18.180 --> 02:20:19.260]  [EVILCORLEY]: Area code 212.
[02:20:19.840 --> 02:20:22.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: Show your support for non-commercial radio.
[02:20:22.300 --> 02:20:25.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: For an alternative in New York City.
[02:20:25.780 --> 02:20:27.860]  [EVILCORLEY]: I can't have an alternative in New York.
[02:20:28.540 --> 02:20:30.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: There is no alternative.
[02:20:30.500 --> 02:20:33.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[02:20:33.400 --> 02:20:36.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: We have volunteers who have come in early.
[02:20:36.960 --> 02:20:38.960]  [EVILCORLEY]: I mean, really early.
[02:20:39.300 --> 02:20:43.760]  [EVILCORLEY]: They've foregone many things that they usually do at this time of day.
[02:20:45.180 --> 02:20:48.080]  [EVILCORLEY]: And they're committed to be here throughout the whole morning.
[02:20:48.260 --> 02:20:51.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: And they're waiting to take your phone calls.
[02:20:51.480 --> 02:20:54.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[02:20:54.700 --> 02:20:56.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: There is one call on the line.
[02:20:56.820 --> 02:20:59.760]  [EVILCORLEY]: There is life out there in the Big Apple.
[02:21:01.060 --> 02:21:02.420]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's heartening to see.
[02:21:03.560 --> 02:21:04.760]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[02:21:05.480 --> 02:21:07.560]  [EVILCORLEY]: We need your support to stay on the air.
[02:21:07.680 --> 02:21:08.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: To keep going.
[02:21:08.460 --> 02:21:11.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: And to keep bringing you innovative programming.
[02:21:11.220 --> 02:21:13.500]  [EVILCORLEY]: Like some of the things that you will hear today.
[02:21:14.140 --> 02:21:14.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: At 1.30 today.
[02:21:15.060 --> 02:21:17.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: The Reagan legacy in the Caribbean and Latin America.
[02:21:18.460 --> 02:21:20.180]  [EVILCORLEY]: Fire from the Mountain at 4.30.
[02:21:20.180 --> 02:21:24.040]  [EVILCORLEY]: That's a dramatic reading based on the book by Omar Sabizas.
[02:21:24.540 --> 02:21:25.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: I hope I pronounced that right.
[02:21:26.180 --> 02:21:27.060]  [EVILCORLEY]: About Nicaragua.
[02:21:27.200 --> 02:21:28.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: It's produced by Rosemary Reed.
[02:21:28.960 --> 02:21:30.340]  [EVILCORLEY]: We bring you the news.
[02:21:30.520 --> 02:21:31.840]  [EVILCORLEY]: We bring you undercurrents.
[02:21:32.140 --> 02:21:34.440]  [EVILCORLEY]: Undercurrents coming up at 8 o'clock this morning.
[02:21:35.260 --> 02:21:37.140]  [EVILCORLEY]: And all kinds of other things.
[02:21:37.200 --> 02:21:40.720]  [EVILCORLEY]: All kinds of creative and educational programming.
[02:21:40.960 --> 02:21:44.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: But we really need your help to continue doing this.
[02:21:44.660 --> 02:21:45.880]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because it costs money.
[02:21:46.060 --> 02:21:48.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: And you may notice that we don't have commercials.
[02:21:48.600 --> 02:21:51.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: Most radio stations pay for their programming.
[02:21:51.600 --> 02:21:54.100]  [EVILCORLEY]: Or lack thereof with commercials.
[02:21:55.320 --> 02:21:57.780]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's kind of ironic.
[02:21:58.020 --> 02:21:59.560]  [EVILCORLEY]: Because the more money you make through commercials.
[02:21:59.580 --> 02:22:01.880]  [EVILCORLEY]: The less programming you actually produce.
[02:22:02.440 --> 02:22:04.280]  [EVILCORLEY]: You just want to keep making money.
[02:22:04.440 --> 02:22:05.620]  [EVILCORLEY]: And playing music.
[02:22:05.920 --> 02:22:08.180]  [EVILCORLEY]: And that kind of thing.
[02:22:08.260 --> 02:22:12.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's a losing proposition for the listener.
[02:22:12.300 --> 02:22:14.960]  [EVILCORLEY]: At least that's how we feel here at WBAI.
[02:22:14.960 --> 02:22:15.000]  [EVILCORLEY]: WBAI.
[02:22:15.440 --> 02:22:16.880]  [EVILCORLEY]: We offer you so much.
[02:22:17.160 --> 02:22:18.880]  [EVILCORLEY]: So many different diverse programs.
[02:22:19.180 --> 02:22:25.980]  [EVILCORLEY]: And all we ask is that you become a part of what we're doing here by showing your support.
[02:22:27.300 --> 02:22:28.340]  [EVILCORLEY]: 279-3400.
[02:22:28.440 --> 02:22:29.600]  [EVILCORLEY]: Area code 212.
[02:22:30.940 --> 02:22:33.240]  [EVILCORLEY]: We're ready for the morning program.
[02:22:33.940 --> 02:22:36.440]  [EVILCORLEY]: And we want to hear from some more people out there.
[02:22:36.440 --> 02:22:38.160]  [EVILCORLEY]: We do have one call on the line.
[02:22:39.200 --> 02:22:40.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: And room for many more.
[02:22:40.800 --> 02:22:42.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: We have volunteers sitting in there.
[02:22:42.820 --> 02:22:43.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: Just waiting.
[02:22:43.600 --> 02:22:44.480]  [EVILCORLEY]: Waiting for your call.
[02:22:45.940 --> 02:22:47.920]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[02:22:48.180 --> 02:22:49.520]  [EVILCORLEY]: I'm Emmanuel Goldstein.
[02:22:49.740 --> 02:22:52.400]  [EVILCORLEY]: And it's been my pleasure being with you this morning.
[02:22:52.620 --> 02:22:54.180]  [EVILCORLEY]: I've been filling in for Don Sheridan.
[02:22:54.180 --> 02:22:55.520]  [EVILCORLEY]: And he'll be back in two weeks.
[02:22:55.780 --> 02:22:58.820]  [EVILCORLEY]: Stay tuned now for the morning show with Will K.
[02:22:58.940 --> 02:22:59.220]  [EVILCORLEY]: Wilkins.
[02:22:59.620 --> 02:23:01.720]  [EVILCORLEY]: And Undercurrent's coming up at 8 o'clock.
[02:23:01.800 --> 02:23:02.580]  [EVILCORLEY]: That number once again.
[02:23:02.760 --> 02:23:03.700]  [EVILCORLEY]: Please show your support.
[02:23:03.840 --> 02:23:06.380]  [EVILCORLEY]: 212-279-3400.
[02:23:06.700 --> 02:23:08.020]  [EVILCORLEY]: Great way to start the day.
[02:23:08.720 --> 02:23:09.420]  [EVILCORLEY]: See you later.
