So, yeah, no, I do think it, it, the way it lends itself to, to the genre and the way you can like easily position it, that it's, there's, there's plenty there to work with.

And I think, yeah, just to expand on what I was saying earlier, it's worth noting that whenever you talk about a national cinema or a film that addresses either thematically or allegorically kind of national cultural concerns and draws upon national or historical, uh, imagery or folklore or what have you, you know, this applies all across the world, but societies have this choice to make, which is, um, you know, if you're proud of your culture, if you're proud of your heritage, how do you define that? And oftentimes, historically and conceptually, the only way to draw firm boundaries about what it is to be Norwegian, what it is to be Egyptian, what it is to be Japanese, what it is to be American is to know what it isn't.

And so it's to draw contrasts to other societies say, well, I know we're not this.

And so your ability to define what it means to be cultural identity X is often in relation to producing others, right? To, to, create sort of oppositions and things like that.

And so that can happen on a national level.

And so some people, their reaction is like, well, you know, anybody can be Swedish.

Anybody can be American.

And this movie that's, like, so depressing and horrific because of the it's, if you know this premise, it's the whole, the daughter gets raped by these people, and then those people happen to come to, uh, want to unknowingly to the parents, come to their lodging, seeking shelter, and the parents realize who they have sheltering, and that it's a matter of do i take revenge on them and what's the what does that mean for me when i do so um you know one of those classic stories that you always encounter and hope to see one day um but uh it's it's it's very it's very good obviously it's like very uh rough and challenging at the same time but uh

He added an element of like a loose cannon element that I liked.

A little bit.

So he's the gagster to Van Damme straight man, right? That's the dynamic.

He's the comic relief and it's okay.

Fine.

I see what you're doing.

Just Rodman can't deliver is the problem.

So it's...

I wanna ask now, um, you guys, what are your general thoughts on when did you first see Re-Animator? Uh, Brandon, do you remember when you first saw Re-Animator?

Yeah, I saw it probably in, uh, I think it was sometime in the '90s, getting into horror, renting it on VHS from the, the video store.

Um, it wasn't till way later I saw the sequels finally, though.

I never went on to Bride or...

And Beyond came out, and I d- I...

Beyond was, that was a Sci-Fi Channel movie, and I was in college and just not paying attention to that kind of stuff.

But, like, um, but yeah, the, the, yeah, the sequels were much lat- a l- a little bit later.

Sure

Yeah

... president of the American Naturopathic Association, and we're so proud that now the Drucker Labs products are available on airwaterhealing.com.

But what I ask all of your audience to ask themselves is when you're trying to build a foundation, there's so much movement right now in biohacking and fasting and bio tuning, and at the end of the day, you have to ask yourself, would you rather have a technology that is taking God-given carbon...

Don't forget, we were reached into the earth and made in the image of God.

18% of our body is carbon.

So what really happens is we're shifting the concept.

We're taking nutrients, minerals, and amino acids, and we're carbon bonding them, and then we're forming it into a liquid, so the absorption and utilization can reach you at a cellular level.

Am I understanding that correctly?

Wow.

Of course, you know, I...

You can, you can cut all of what I'm about to say out just because I think there's something presumptuous about going on someone's podcast and spouting off about politics.

But, uh, of course, the best pop culture analog to Trump that we have is Biff from Back to the Future, right? And, uh, like, Bob Zemeckis and Bob Gale have both admitted, so it's not a, it's, it's, like, completely, uh...

It's not a secret at all that Biff from Back to the Future II is, uh, is meant to be Donald Trump.

But I've been thinking about this, and I think they were really ahead of everyone about this because...

And it's nothing against the actor who plays Biff.

Mm.

[laughs]

... like a teardrop tattoo, you know? That's the stu- the, the self-seriousness of this, which I think also, I think there's an element of kinda Oriental racism involved.

It's like, well, this is, this is about ancient Chinese traditions and, uh, in, in Asia, people are so stoic, and they, they, they bottle it up inside, and that's, that's what an Asian action star consists of.

It's not like a Antonio Banderas wink wink, I'm gonna play a guitar and then smack you on the head with it.

There, there is a sense of, like, somber self-seriousness that I think is attributed to kind of the, the Asian-ness of the story that I think is kind of culturally, uh, a little bit presumptuous as well, which is very '90s, you know? I, I think it, it makes sense for the era that, that people would assume that, like, a Yakuza film has to be, uh, really intense and, and glaring and, and, and scowling as opposed to kinda wink wink charming.

You know? Like you have a really handsome, charming actor.

It takes a few more movies to realize, I think, just...

[laughs]

I'd much rather see a movie like this in that setting.

Right.

So that setting may be kind of biasing my opinion a little bit.

I think the movie is good.

Most of the time it's great a couple of times, but then kind of mediocre for enough stretches for it to be a problem for me.

Anyway, it does have a checklist of things it needs to deliver as an evil dead movie, which I think it mainly fulfills.

Uh, it's, it's gross.

Yeah.

[laughs]

You know what I mean? Um, and so but that, but that's, that cultural context in Hollywood cinema I think is really important for understanding how, like why this movie even exists and why Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez are these two guys who are just going for it.

You look at this movie now, and you can enjoy it for its, for, for all the same reasons that, that, uh, it would've been enjoyable at the time.

But, you know, the kind of, I, misogyny might be a little too strong of a word, but the, the kind of chauvinism of it for cer- for sure, the objectification of women all the way through, uh, it just kind of, I think the culture is more primed to, to view things through that filter.

And I'm not saying that's necessarily the correct way to view it or a superior way to view it.

But the culture around how we talk about films has changed in a way that I think maybe this movie i, is only kind of insulated from insofar as that it's so obviously trashy grindhouse that it's just begging not to be taken that seriously.

Or, or at least it has kind of a built-in sel- uh, disavowal, right? And just be like, "Well, yeah, it's, it's obviously very male gaze-y." But, you know, it's also meant to, uh, uh, invoke the style and aesthetics of the '70s in which sexism was like par for the course.

Yeah, true.

We're f- we're experienced at that.

So Bobby, Bobby, I'm hoping, is starting that podcast because he knows that he's been silenced and he wants to continue.

Because, you know, l- as someone who's traveled the trade show circuit, you know, I've had, I've had Brian Hooker on my show multiple times.

I have very good conversation with Brian Hooker, who also has a vaccine-injured child.

He'll straight up tell you that, "I had a perfect functioning baby boy, got the vaccine, and it destroyed his son's life." And you know, what Bobby said at the CHD conferences is very different than what he's saying now, and I can only imagine that it is because there are powers that are silencing him.

I 100% believe that the Maha movement, which is a very good grassroots organization, I don't think that they're going to fail.

I think that they're going to continue on.

Tell us a little bit about, Mike, what you are particularly doing with your own personal life and in your business at airwaterhealing.com.

So Mike, when we're talking about water shortages, stress on water tables, the underground water, Does it surprise you to see these large numbers in these areas where water is already in short supply?

It's it's very alarming and you know people that think that these data centers are just going to open up and they're not going to be consuming the same things that you need to consume.

Wait until the electrical grid shifts wait until a tornado or a hurricane comes through, and you know I remember growing up in royal palm beach Florida we were lucky enough, we were lucky enough that our.

Housing development was on the same.

strip where a hospital was so they would prioritize our grid first i promise you tamera what we're looking at now is these data centers are going to be given the preference of getting power back if not right after the same time that the hospital gets the power force because what they're doing with this data and the numbers that you're saying i think those are under reported numbers i think there's so many corporate S corp and LLC companies that are opening up these satellite data centers and when people think oh well this isn't really going to affect me look at the company Meta right Meta just opened up a data center in Georgia there is a woman and a husband they've been all over Instagram and Facebook if you go on Telegram look at global healing or doctor group.

He just shared the video from David avocado wolf Your listeners can go there outside of this interview.

They can go look it up She has soot and nasty chemical stuff coming out of her water Her water pressure is so low that it takes her four minutes to fill up a gallon of water.

If you say stop the AI, stop the chat, stop the cloud, what else?

Could you articulate a few of those concerns, Mike? Sure.

Yeah, so and again, you know, not talking about chemtrails or any conspiracy level, but what we're watching happen right now in the Maha and the MAGA movement is not a conspiracy in the classic sense.

I think it's something that's much more predictable.

And honestly, it's a lot more concerning if you ask me.

We're looking here at a grassroots movement.

that is running headfirst into institutional power.

And it is getting reshaped in real time.

Is RFK Jr. being silenced on the vaccine issue?
