GOOD EVENING: The show begins tonight in Ukraine, waiting for weapons and ammo, and then moves to Russia, waiting out the American election. We then head to Mexico to observe protectionism regarding the PRC's BYD EV. Next, we visit China to check on manufacturing, followed by Toronto to puzzle about the slow growth of the economy. We then travel to Rome to speak of the shadow fleet of dilapidated oil tankers with bogus insurance running Russian oil to black marketeers. From there, we go to Wyoming and Montana to discuss the land dispute between public and private land in the Federal checkerboard. We then journey back in time to NYC during 1847-1850 and after to discuss the arrival of the Famine Irish. Finally, we visit Quito, Caracas, Panama City, Brasilia, Rio de Janeiro, Buenos Aires, and Mexico City.

4/8: Plentiful Country: The Great Potato Famine and the Making of Irish New York Hardcover – March 12, 2024 by Tyler Anbinder (Author)
https://www.amazon.com/Plentiful-Country-Potato-Famine-Making/dp/031656480X/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=
In 1845, a fungus began to destroy Ireland’s potato crop, triggering a famine that would kill one million Irish men, women, and children—and drive over one million more to flee for America. Ten years later, the United States had been transformed by this stupendous migration, nowhere more than New York: by 1855, roughly a third of all adults living in Manhattan were immigrants who had escaped the hunger in Ireland. These so-called “Famine Irish” were the forebears of four U.S. presidents (including Joe Biden) yet when they arrived in America they were consigned to the lowest-paying jobs and subjected to discrimination and ridicule by their new countrymen. Even today, the popular perception of these immigrants is one of destitution and despair. But when we let the Famine Irish narrate their own stories, they paint a far different picture.
In this magisterial work of storytelling and scholarship, acclaimed historian Tyler Anbinder presents for the first time the Famine generation’s individual and collective tales of struggle, perseverance, and triumph. Drawing on newly available records and a ten-year research initiative, Anbinder reclaims the narratives of the refugees who settled in New York City and helped reshape the entire nation. Plentiful Country is a tour de force—a book that rescues the Famine immigrants from the margins of history and restores them to their rightful place at the center of the American story.

what hippocrat epidemic of opioid in the USA 80s crack epidemic all #CIA and corporations in USA this show is propaganda for the #CIA
Why, John, did you not push back on Harry's erroneous reporting about the percentage illegal migrants carrying Covid?! A cursory search will give you those numbers. 18% according to NBC a week ago. Couple that with the government not testing and you can bet your CBS contract that the numbers are significantly higher. Who are you and what have you done with John? Were you simply placating Harry? Illegal immigration is changing the makeup of the country and all you two can utter are fallacies and rumors of two excellent governors. Appalling. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/18-percent-migrant-families-leaving-border-patrol-custody-tested-positive-n1276244

The John Batchelor show is very informative, John has top notch guests. I also like his book discussions, but the subject matter should be a bit wider.
