bush and his son george w. bush and the artist who painted that portrait. 41 and 43 because it was the way to distinguish them. >> president clinton told me once, i think his chief of staff told me i think it was 43 who called president clinton 42 wants and president clinton, it made his day. he told his staff all my gosh, i'm pretty sure it was 43 he called him, he just called me 42, i am like a member of the family, i thought that was funny. >> so president bush was reagan's vice president for eight years and is a question about, they were adversaries and i'm not sure president bush ever thought he'd be picked for the vp so talk about how that relationship grew between the two of them. >> i should say whoever asked the question, i apologize, it predates my book and predates from when i was in president bush's inner circle, do i know the answer? i do, it's from being around 25 years, president reagan sort of chose george bush to be his vp candidate in the 11th hour at the reporting convention. it was former pr

george -- jonathan: george, your take. george: the labor market is clearly doing well and we are in recovery. people have pointed toward the participation rate as being a particular weak spot and that is certainly true. from a jobs perspective and most want a job, there are jobs to be had. it is very clear that companies and hirers are looking to add jobs. jonathan: what about you, sir. >> a strong report but unsurprising. we expect it to be strong. a difference between the establishment survey and household survey. payroll numbers were coming week from the establishment survey. that was going to be resolved with a strong report across the board with payroll improving and net revision. the labor market, very strong right now. if we continue to edge out at this pace, we will be back to pre-covid employment 28 months from the peak pretty look back to 1980 recession, that would be the quickest time back to full employment the peak number of jobs back to 1980. jonathan: it is going to happen quickly. when you look at how the m

we are spending a full 25 minutes with george and banga, also known as the spoken word artist george parrot. hello george. great. have you on this? hello. thank you very much. oh, it's great to be bio. i am thinking, josh, that there were going to be times when you create cong 10. you do performance is for audience who know you know your work. so there's a sure hand with talking to them. and there be other times where, you know, you're speaking to a much broader audience. who jo? no, you your background. how do you introduce yourself to people who are discovering you? if people were discovery you right now in this conversation? i tell people that i'm a spoken word artist and i tend to talk about political or social questions in my work. ready we are open into this conversation out. we have comments from them. people in uganda. we have comments on twitter and comments right here in the you chief comment space. if you want to talk to george the poet, you are very welcome to jumping to the comment section. and you can be part of our conversation. we are a tickly talking about a new film

george burch and nicole vanderheyden. my belief is that she likely then fell out of the car onto the concrete when he'd then wandered on to stump on her face and on her back up against the curve. >> it's amazing that nobody heard anything. you would think that she would be screaming for her life at that point. >> you would think that, but if you're being strangled, you really can't scream. >> the injuries to nicole's neck were very very severe. it is likely that she would not have been able to get much of a scream out, if anything. >> both slinger and the detective were certain that they had their man. but remember, they have been down this road before. so this time, they waited. >> we wanted to make sure that we had all of our ducks in a row before he was taken into custody. and to make sure that there wasn't anything in that google data that would maybe potentially been exonerated before he was arrested. >> we could see him outside on the porch -- >> they also watched him carefully. >> you are worried about public safet

george washington and the continental army could not. the army had to live off the land and so washington for example in the winter at valley forge, this when the uniforms such as they were were falling off of them and they were getting frostbitten feet and they were low on food. he has to weigh okay i've got to keep the soldiers from starving but on the other hand i can't starve farmers and the surrounding area by depriving them of what they need to live so it's a very difficult balancing act. in the same vein washington did became extremely frustrated with the continental congress because the continental congress was supposed to be providing the wherewithal to fight this war. the continental congress was operating -- they weren't operating under anyone before 1781 and that's in the battle of georgetown but i mention they operated under the confederation but the congress had no authority and they couldn't compel them to pay up to deliver so many head of cattle or so much of this and so much of that. they could request that the states re

>> it appears to be, george. it has the molecular characteristics that strongly suggest that it would be more transmissible. it has a bunch of mutations, a disturbingly large number of mutations in the spike protein, which is the business end of the virus which really binds, particularly that binds to the receptors in your body in your nose and your nasal pharynx and your lungs. the mutations would strongly suggest that it would more transmissible and that it might evade some of the protection of monoclonal antibodies and even antibodies induced by vaccine. if you look at the pattern in south africa, when you have a spike of infections, they're very heavily weighted towards this new variant, the omicron, and therefore, you have to presume it has a good degree of transmissibility advantage, which is very likely what is going on right now in southern africa and would likely be going on in other countries as it spreads. >> do we know if it causes more severe disease? >> great question, george. we don't know that. in

george gilder,. that's for him to run. >> expect the domination of the theory of the information theory ofeconomics . which prohibits really anticipating the future. the future is based on human creativity. and as princeton hirschman declared, creativity always comes with a surprise to it. and that's no deterministic theory of economics. no deterministic theory of mind. can create a new future. and what differentiates our age from the stone age is not refinement of stones. it's the advance of knowledge. knowledge as well. it's learning and it's all constrained by the passage of time which is what remains scarce when all else grows abundant. so the future unless it's going to be just more of the same in other words, a degeneration it's got to surprise us. and i believe that in 30 years going to live in a world that is would be almost incomprehensible in some ways technologically from the world we live in today. it will go beyond silicon. i think we all produce and are intelligent machines will depend

let me welcome george gilder to independent conversations. hi, george. [inaudible] >> it's a pleasure to see you again. i met george gilder first, i think it was deep in the winter of maybe january of 1982 in western new york, and you would recently published a wealth and poverty like the year before i think. wasn't poverty published in 1981, george? >> george? >> 1980. >> 1980,0, okay. s -- i think president reagan loved the book if i remember hearing he read it. store? >> he wrote me letters about it before publication. he read articles, excerpts from it. it was excerpted all over the place before it came out, and it made me president reagan's most quoted living author. >> wow wow that was a timeles. your creativity in seeing what others didn't see about the system of free exchange so so-called capitalism when you analogized it to -- what was the exchange think among the native american tribes? >> there's hannah moshe, that's the japanese one. there's a whole bunch of different ways. >> the try to get together and he would simply give and share which w

only george iii know whatwas going on. all . and over time, they come to the realization that banking on george iii is a hopeless cause because nobody is more committed to imposing hethis imperial power on the colonies than george iii. and when the war is over and they're looking for statehood the first thing you do when you lose the war is look for scapegoats they should have fastened on george iii but they didn't. they fastened on the generals , not so much on wallace and on george jermaine, the equipment secretary of defense . because if you fasten on george iii your fastening on the whole empire and at any rate, before he begins to lose his, he doesn't lose his mind, he has an illness before he becomes mentally depraved, george iii exercises the greatest imperial power of any british king since the glorious revolution. these the real scapegoat. >> was george washington a military genius to win the war with so few troops? sometimes his troops weren't even close barely and had very few armaments orhiwas he lucky that the briti

go ahead, george. yes, yes, this is an excellent point because it is a indian logical fight that the biden administration particular wants to wait. because a trump really was the 1st president who had brought up the issue of a me when you 1st of all had the whole cold war paradigm. china's great because china is on our side against the soviet union, even though china was then in the midst of this cultural revolution. but our great and good guys because i went outside and that went on from why to why because it was still. busy a grade below, still, it was russian, and you can see that manifested in the expansion of nato. and then i think, you know, right, you know, with trauma and is now a serious economic rival. i mean, you know, yeah, it will be the number one economy in the world, but trump made this into a non media logical company. i mean, he was taking on everybody who's of economic interest class of those of the united states. when buying has done, brought back to the cold war aspect to it, which

we are spending of full 25 minutes with george and pango, also known as the spoken word, artist george, the poet. hello, george. great. have you on this? go low. thank you very much. oh, it's great to be bio, i am thinking josh, that there were going to be times when you create kong 10. you do performance is for audience who know you know your work. so there's a sure hat with talking to them, and there be other times where, you know, you're speaking to a much broader audience. who jo? no, you your background. how do you introduce yourself to people who are discovering it? if people were discovering you right now in this conversation, i tell people that i'm a spoken word artist and attempt to talk about political oh, social. ready questions and my work. we are open into this conversation out. we have comments from jumping from uganda. we have comments on twitter and comments right here in the chief comment space. if you want to talk to george the poet, you are very welcome to jumping to the comment section. and you can be part of our conversation. we are particularly talking about a new

thanks, george. bye-bye. >> thank you. >> after words is a weekly interview program with relevant guest hosts interviewing top nonfiction authors about their latest work. on this week's program, children's hospital of philadelphia infectious diseases chief dr. paul offit talked about the risks associated with medical innovation. he's interviewed by bloomberg school of public health epidemiologist dr. emily gurley. >> dr. offit, i'm so happy to be talking with you today. >> the pleasure is mine. thank you very much. >> obviously, the themes in your book are very relevant for what we're going through today in the pandemic. and i know you said you started writing the book around the time the pandemic began, but can you tell us where the idea for the book came from? and why this book now? >> i think the emotion for this book actually came from the fact that i am a child of the '50s d

george gilder, futurist? >> i expect the domination of the theory of information of economics which prohibits really the future. the future is based on human creativity. he declared creativity always comes with a surprise to us. the terminus of the theories of economics, that the divine can create a new future and what differentiates our age from the stone age is not a-- not a steady refund of the stones. it's advance of knowledge. knowledge is wealth, growth is learning and it's all constrained by the passage of time, which is what remains is scarce when all else grows abundant. future unless it's going to be just more of the same in the generation it's got to surprise us and i believe that in 30 years we will live in a world that is almost incomprehensible in some ways technologically from the world we live in today. i think we will go beyond the silicon. i think we will produce and our intelligence machines will depend on a new carbon age just as our brains consist of carbon, so will our intelligent machin

when are you, george? >> i am a historian. >> okay. >> but we keep calls me a techno utopian futurist. i have no idea why, but anyway, i'm willing to play the role that is imposed on me. >> we are glad. >> i really probably, i believe and i -- in a hierarchical universe and i believe it's helpful to have a philosophical perspective that unifies all these different fields. and that allows you to transcend this fragmentation of analysis that afflicts all the universities were everybody has his own's specialization. many of them with different organs and idioms of expression that even exacerbate the fragmentation of knowledge. >> yeah, they really do. and your work is always really characterized by the integration rather than the fragmentation, which makes sense. i think that probably law must have driven you to be one of the cofounders of the discovery institute in seattle. they seem to have quite a synthetic understanding of the science of their. is that right? >> that's what we try to do. we try to bring t

george washington warned us, he predicted us. especially when another phrase from the farewell address act like a pretended patriots, really acted like they are more patriotic than anybody else which itself washington essays ascending its national unity or if they fed into that stuff that washington warned against, they are part of the problem. let's not pull any punches about that. washington made a very explicit warning we just live through evidence of. so we could not be more relevant and that is precisely why we need to be listening to washington's farewell address now, today. we are falling into the traps he warned us about almost 250 years ago. >> john quickly and the most recently brought the farewell address, when did they stop making it mandatory to read the farewell address is the full congress, both houses are just the senate? >> the senate still reads it every year. yes it does. >> how ironic. [laughter] >> i would argue the house is more partisan than the senate although it is kind of a jump ball. what he thought you

it's one of the first george washington refuses to become a dictator george the third said that if he does that, to be the greatest man in the world. but at that moment, he was an think about it, this was caesar did rommel dead or what napoleon will do or others will do or castro will do. they tend to believe that they are the revolution, dictators do have a difficult separating themselves from it. >> okay we have questions from those viewing and i'll begin with some of them, fermanagh, listen to the path of becoming an historian and what sparked your interest in history. >> gosh, i think reading biographies, can history through biography and through lives and i love biographies since there was always a center of topic and i sort of thought look will come into this world the same way really the same way. what can we learn by people who lived before of this and some of them a thousand years before us so this perhaps an adolescent way to come to this but as i said, i didn't major in history predict i majored in philosophy and i decided to go forward in history because for many reasons,

we think about george floyd and how consequential that video was. we pray that the video here will help them arrive at a just verdict. but, reverend al,ky only think about all of the people, the marginalized people of color who did not have video. i can only think of them never, ever having a chance at court. and i don't want us to have this precedence where if minorities are killed by white people, that we have this high standard where we have to have a video to get justice. i'm thinking about breonna taylor, i'm thinking about so many others where there was no video. >> ben crump, trying to figure out if a precedent is set, where you have to have video to hold someone accountable for killing a black person, just like george floyd.on the video of arbery's murder was pivotal. no one was arrested until the video of arbery's murder was released and circulated widely, which took more than two months after the killing. that video sparked nationwide protests and activism. it was a key piece of evidence in this trial. like george floyd, the video of ahmau

go ahead, george. yes, yes, this is an excellent point because it is a indian logical fight that the biden administration particular wants to wait. because a trump really was the 1st president who had brought up the issue of trying because a sesame when you 1st of all had the whole cold war paradigm. china is great because china is on our side against the soviet union, even though china was then in the midst of this cultural revolution. but they are great and good guys because outside and that went on for a while because it was still a grade below that it was russian. and you can see that manifested in the expansion of nato. and then i think, you know, right, you know, with trauma and weight, china is now a serious economic rival. i mean, you know, it will be the number one economy in the world. but trump made this into a non media logical conflict. i mean, he was taking on everybody who's of economic interest class for those of the united states. when buying is done, he said, going back to the cold wa

go ahead, george. yes, yes, this is an excellent point because it is an indian logical fight that the biden administration in particular wants to wait. because a trump really was the 1st president who had brought up the issue of china a me, when you 1st of all had the whole cold war paradigm. giant is great because china is on our side against the soviet union. even though china was then in the midst of this cultural revolution, but all great and then good guys because i went outside and that went from why to why because it was still. busy a great deal of it, it was russian. you can see that manifested in the expansion of nato. and then i think, you know, right, a is. now, here is economic rival. i mean, you know, it will be the number one economy in the world. but trump made this into a non media logical company. i mean, he was taking on everybody who's of economic interest class for those of the united states. when buying has done brought back to the cold war aspect to it, which is a logical arrival

like george floyd. in may, the doj decided to indict the officers involved in george floyd's murder as well. those officers were arraigned in september. they pled not guilty. they are at the trial for murdering george floyd, were one of the few times in history that a white police officer was found guilty of killing a black person. he was the first ever police officer to be convicted of killing a black person in minnesota. but to, many a felt like a surprise. an exception, despite the wealth of video evidence of that crime. earlier today, just after the georgia jury asked the court if it review video of ahmaud arbery's murder, one of the arbery family, ben crump, reflected on the killing of beyond -- and george floyd. >> thank god that there is video. we think about george floyd and how consequential that video was. we pray that the video here will help them arrive at a just verdict. but reverent, i can only think about all of the people that marginalized people of color, who did not have video. i can o

lee, you have george meade assessing it as neutral ground. there's the question of, is it logical to consider it as a valuable position and did either general lee or sickles overstatement that. and we'll come back to that. now, i'm not going to do the battle here in powerpoint, it's very hard to do civil war battles with powerpoint presentations, i think that's why so few people actually do it. so we'll skip ahead. you guys know what happens. longstreet attacks the union left flank with great vigor, little round top, the wheat field, eventually sickles' troops are driven out of the peach orchard. arguably one of the best things that could have happened to dan sickles was this. because the confederate artillery shell, solid shot, comes in, smashes into sickles' right leg. he's carried off the battlefield where he's amputated that night and sickles is then removed from the battlefield. he misses july 3, he misses the rest of the gettysburg campaign. but he goes back to washington to recuperate. and on july 5, while recuperating in washington, w

ah let's go back to george in budapest. i'm the written house of verdict is in and of course the it within american lead circles, you know, did, did the system work? it was their justice, you know, you know, they can chase their tail all they want about that. okay, that's fine. but one of the things i guess for me kind of being a bit of a far away is, this is still another contrived story that falls has fallen slight on its face. weapons of mass destruction. russia gave bounty page. uh huh hunter biden. we can go on and on for hours and hours, and this one, this one really was an ultimate fail because i think you, all of us would agree. russia gave was important to some people in it and it had elements. but this is something that so internal, the left is racialized, everything divided people by race. and now you look at the mainstream meeting, the, that the broad sheets look at the liberal a stations and they completely got it wrong. when are people going to finally turn them off? george? go ahead. yes, it is quite shocking

go ahead, george. yes, yes, this is an excellent point because it is a indian logical fight that the vitamin administration in particular wants to wait . because a trump really was the 1st president who had brought up the issue of a sesame when you 1st of all had the whole cold war paradigm. china's great because china is on our side against the soviet union, even though china was then in the midst of this cultural revolution. but they all great and then good guys because i went outside and that went on from quite a while because it was still. busy a grade below that it was russian, and you can see that manifested in the expansion of nato. and then i think, you know, right, you know, with trauma and wait, china is now a serious economic rival. i mean, you know, it will be the number one economy in the world, but trump made this into a non media logical company. i mean, he was taken on everybody who's of economic interests of our class. and those of the united states when buying is done, is brought back
