Bill Wilkerson, how about some other pregame information?
Bill WilkersonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
4:05
Well, Jack Patera, coming in as the first coach of the Seattle Seahawks, has a couple of very tough jobs on his hand.
Jeffrey GladdenHOST
8:36
How does that kind of play out for you?
Max MoreGUEST
8:38
Well, what I, I call it the philosophy of extropy, which is a term that, uh, my friend Tom Bell came up with.
Max MoreGUEST
8:42
It just fit it very nicely because, of course, in physics you have the idea of entropy, which means-
Jeffrey GladdenHOST

Entropy
Duncan BellGUEST
37:14
And at the core of their project is life extension, is longevity.
Duncan BellGUEST
37:18
So it's established by two individuals, two graduate students at the time at University of Southern California, a man called Max O'Connor, who renamed himself Max More not long afterwards, and Tom Bell.
Duncan BellGUEST
37:30
And they're key figures really through the sort of long '90s, let's call it transhumanist development.
Duncan BellGUEST
37:36
It's a libertarian, a very explicitly libertarian group.
LexHOST
48:39
We have Paul Archital's 2006 article deeply analyzing whether restaurant receipts justify a sports wager as an excluded commodity.
LexHOST
48:47
We have Tom Bell and Robert Hahn drafting papers to exclude sports.
BiancaHOST
48:51
We do.
LexHOST
48:52
We have the 2008 CFTC concept released publicly asking about federal preemption of state gaming laws.
Steve CookGUEST
26:54
So we can see that the SLP was a combination of positive, militant, and on the other hand, negative, doctrinaire aspects.
Steve CookGUEST
27:02
Some of the leaders, who we haven't mentioned yet, included, uh, Tom Bell.
Steve CookGUEST
27:07
Again, uh, somebody that many comrades will know.
Steve CookGUEST
27:11
But there were also people of a very narrow outlook, like Mitchell and Clooney, neither of whom I know anything about actually.
Zak PaineHOST
51:45
Now, I'd also like to take you to a story about an organization that has apparently covertly been working directly with President Trump's CISA in this new administration.
Zak PaineHOST
51:59
Uh, this is a company called Leidos, and their CEO, Tom Bell, was recently on stage at an event for Breitbart, and he described how his company is currently working with the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, as well as other federal and private sector entities that have not yet been named, specifically working to protect critical US infrastructure from this growing number of cyber threats that we have heard about and were specifically highlighted in the letter from Mark Wayne Mullen and the DHS.
Zak PaineHOST
52:31
Breitbart News Washington Bureau Chief Matthew Boyle spoke with Bell about CISA's cybersecurity mission and what the agency should prioritize as threats to American technological infrastructure expand, including potential threats involving artificial intelligence, now super intelligence, particularly from China.
Zak PaineHOST
52:49
And he said, "Little tip of the hat.
Avery QuinnHOST

You don't deliver fuel somewhere that nobody works, and you don't repair the fences around something that nobody cares about, and you don't maintain roads that nobody uses, which left me with a pretty obvious question.
Avery QuinnHOST
11:48
Where did those roads actually go? And that's when I went back to something from Tom's interview that I hadn't really thought much about before, Site 27, because I had always assumed that Site 27 was just the name Blackwood Logging gave that particular logging camp, you know, like Site 27 or Plot 27 or Section 27 or whatever.
Avery QuinnHOST
12:08
But if there was a Site 27, then presumably there would be a Site 26, right? And a Site 25 and a Site 24.
Avery QuinnHOST
12:16
So I started looking and yeah, there were.
Avery QuinnHOST
13:09
And I found a worker injury report from the '60s connected to Site 9, all which would be expected normal things.
Avery QuinnHOST
13:15
And honestly, most of it was pretty boring, which was actually useful because now I knew that the numbers were real.
Avery QuinnHOST
13:22
Site 27 wasn't just something Tom misremembered, and it wasn't a nickname that the crew had come up with either.
Avery QuinnHOST
13:28
Blackwood Logging actually called it Site 27.
Robin SiegerHOST
20:05
We've hiked again and again.
Robin SiegerHOST
20:08
And Tom Bell from, uh, w- near Washington, just, uh, we've had so much fun, all because we both happened to be staying in a hostel, and we ended up leaving at the same time.
Robin SiegerHOST
20:19
So I, I know in golf we want certainty.
Robin SiegerHOST
20:22
I do know that, so don't think I'm just being so philosophical here.
