it's hard to imagine decades after the war a nazi don't was still active rich in the one hundred seventy s. cret intel had as the chair of its code a man convicted of mass murder and slavery at ash woods a german company develops a little mite of a drug that was promoted as completely safe even during pregnancy it's terrible side effects what has happened to my baby anything. you know she said he's just. submit to mind victims i have to this day received no compensation and never apologized for the suffering that not only want the money i want the revenge.

previously on the great american pilgrimage my doing real. on the right track. i finally found. you know it took me about half an hour look at all our chicago. everybody i'm stephen baldwin task hollywood guy usual suspects my favorite movie proud american first of all i'm just a george washington and r.v. enthusing just. joined the big boy this is my buddy max the famous financial guru and will he's a little bit different. abraham lincoln there were no windows up last but not least my larger than life. the night an aspiring star rio with all the drama happening in our country i'm hitting the road to have some fun. every day americans know. what's america. suffered and see how things got so crazy i was naked. he did. i think. we start to

bridge the gap this is the great american pill which. today marks the beginning of the final leg of the pilgrimage as a reunited steven macs are shipping up to boston and boy if he missed max's ramblings because as miles davis when asked about his genius he said it's not actually the notes he's playing but the rest. it's what between them though that's what makes. me think about people it's the n.t. no this is the you know it's fine for you know rockets. rock n roll and country music for fourth time it was. rock and roll baby rock and roll and

then you have like a waltz is a three d. like the mill. and then a marching band i suppose there's two to four this side down about the. ok then you have people bebop is five four so it's a pop up. and see that upbeat the but the dizzy gillespie the upbeat that's five four that's what makes it funky that's what makes it jazzy that's what makes it a revolution five four upbeat. seems like. our

heroes have some great dance moves don't they but we don't have time for that so let's fast forward. to the any money. club. is today free or. do. they say yes. there's no time to sleep on this pill which is our hero's drive through the night and watch the sunrise over the border of the bay state. pursuit built on the next oh is that what we're doing now right and then a seatbelt the entire trip suddenly like oh let's put on our seat. isn't that luddy. brother or pulling up in massachusetts yeah hang on a minute. all right. look it up pretty this is

buddy all gorgeous colors the shock of color the shock of nature what you got hit this fall the boston mess now i grew up terrible boston x i guess so sorry for those ted kennedy i really did just for a second i was a j.f.k. but i was deathly tet because. it was a little bit of a little girl gurgling sound from a little ditty. i grow up i'll stop but i'm sorry i made a bad political reference is it moving right along we're coming into the boston area j. party buds water mayhem revolution. this is where it all happened something in the soil something in the atmosphere or something about the cosmic alignment of the planets got our forefathers all riled up and they said t.v. or not to t. know stephen that was not the question to be what happened and all the economics of

when the boston tea party in the what happened america's a start up it always has been at the start of country to start a nation for it so it was unfair so they decided to in the boston tea party to throw the tea into the into the water because they were going to pay the taxes anymore it's unfair taxation it's interesting only a third of americans wanted to declare their independence from england a third did not and a third were ambivalent you know they didn't care one way or another so only it shows that a small percentage of the population if motivated can stage a successful revolution looking back i think we think that everyone was gung ho on this revolution but really it was a muslim minority who and negatively created what what came out of all that. came out of it was the gumption and the personalities like paul revere and benjamin

franklin and thomas jefferson these are incredibly successful intelligent visionary renaissance man who studied the rights of man from the enlightenment in europe they brought it to america they caught a five there ideas of freedom in the declaration of independence of the constitution of united states and once they put that in motion it was inevitably going to go forward the inertia of the revolution once sparked was carried forward irreversibly there approximately twenty two thousand red coats or english soldiers we we went on a killing spree. to secure our freedom the british empire was the biggest empire the strongest. that ever existed ever you know came in to be our age and really through the battle in our favor were the french because the french hated the british the british for hundreds of years and. when the british were defeated we try to be more american with the. winners of two world wars

undefeated in the world wars. ok so you know at home trying to figure that one out. i live in the united kingdom i live in great britain the whole system of monarchy is an oppressive. i'm glad we did it. but. you can still be the crown prince of the pilgrimage right yeah. well that's very different is that because there wasn't a hereditary. title he was nice you. know he was nice he would just thrown the cuteness yes exactly q. three zero de janeiro it's true though well you know if you put the seed of that already in my mind when you talk about boston. and it stirs the lawyers of my patriotism i feel it in

my mind and now a patriotic rant from max my are on fire with anticipation of expressing in an almost like star spangled manner my love and devotion of freedom right there on the very sight of the boston tea party in some spectacular now what you're seeing is you've got some kind of by british and with me max and the twins. millions and millions and many of max's are pretty at the ready like them like the minutemen it's. the seminal moment in american history i'll give you that pun. i agree with there are you just said there is a revolution. as you can clearly see happening here. i believe part of the revolution is to great american pilgrim. from going down.

like a catnip for cops. after nearly escaping the state east even to max make their way to the more and square diner in fitchburg mass to meet a woman running for city council. where you. used to be just even my favorite you are fans walia sam squally nice me that nice to meet you too where are we what is this place is it more in square dynamic pittsburgh mathewson seriously massachusetts massachusetts that's rude to the different benignly you think sounds perfectly fine over here well from around here i'm well thank you for coming to say you are on a journey on the experience on the jubilee service luge the great american pilgrimage room in the r.v.

going around the country talking to renew the people who haven't found time for to come to regularise the mario you regularly. i'm getting back there i was lost for a little out there and hollyweird for for i'm coming back sure steven just like all the other regular people with their own t.v. shows so now here we are. and stephen still has no idea where he is. pittsburgh fitchburg says this is your backyard but you know everybody here knows where i live this is my home that's bird how many times have we said this town's name maybe we should keep track of that pittsburgh. school when i go to school fitchburg star high but i went to warwick rhode island boston architectural college and one of them said she went and got a degree in architecture and there's

a well i'm working towards my degree in architecture i have a degree in engineering but yes or what else are you doing right now until you have on your list of things to do all running for city council at large prayer. or just throw in there so that you know by the way let go and it's its main thing no pun it's really really great actually what other good excuse do you have to go to people's doors and knock on them and there are actually people say you know. they are going to perceive the potential new city council but why not the door to first they're like yes can i help you and i say i'm saying scalia running for the council. ok craig to her job is where the hell do you think i would give a selling religion or selling solar. it's either you're selling solar or you're there for religion and you're selling souls oh it wasn't for your good work to do this if stephen had a day job we'd tell him not to quit doing your job creator finished business school

leave syncing the pilgrimage is nearing its end and also the recent drop in crypto currency max decides to pick up a part time shift as a line cook. during . the biggest rally. very very very tough question right there. you just put those down thirty seconds ago i'm no julia child but those eggs definitely need to be cooked longer. actually going to serve those well for legal matters to great american building which is not responsible for.

an. unfortunate ukrainian government destroys that conclave don't tell me because they don't understand this but they destroyed the country they lost not only crimea but they lost their own people in two regions ukrainians and russians they really have is toward a very deep roots and to cut this and to try and just to show us that you have some of the separate and different. from russians this is absolutely stupid the way this is the way to nowhere. that a condition has played a crucial role in this safeguarding the lives of the instant civilians and to whom

by all means we can be watchful and think even you know a little and you will. commit to a crime was this it is the national the say so what is it speak. to you months and again also a lot of principles and values. there was. a smack serves up a plate of salmonella to the unsuspecting patrons in the next booth stephen and sam continued to talk politics on the local level. and she was puck fits. so short you know what i live near a place called litchfield connecticut district and so is small. forty thousand

forty one and it's almost what is it where we're meeting in city but you see a lot of division in politics even the little town of the democratic republic and we have a majority if i did world people here in pittsburgh forty four percent of uninterrupted so they don't want to declare they want to cause strife there other than that the second i guess the democrats and then it's republican but the majority are on a roll than when we have elections a lot of the time it's very split so we're very similar to the general massachusetts general less a choice it's left leaning or moderate why do you want to do this well i want to help i've been helping and serve in the city in a volunteer trancing for years and i want to help an inefficient about today. is the wave of change in politics today and i want to be in the right in the way. but you're seriously short and that's pretty thin and most people know it would

give them another one which is the spoils that need. politics was there something he said i could always get back to the architecture or any of the other schooling stuff i feel a calling into this right now what is the spark sadistically most women have to have their own twisted to go into politics and i think that's probably fine with me you know i run a community group and palin facebook is supporting about something phone call this conflict that's pregnant. that's the max they carry so they can grow their own pineapple have been established or got coffee and i thought he was that earnest we're going to shoot a banana and somehow max under-cooked out as well when i go when it fits. cuppa joe resilient. thanks max roach yeah no problem. but as someone in this community group and you know i'm very involved with everything community people ask questions about the city what i was arrested and put down for what not and i answer i seek out the answers and the answer in the form so when our city council ran for

state representative and the seat became available and a lot of people twisting my arm saying you have to run like adam and i think john something i got lots of things don't really yet so like but this is right it is a compliment like seems are duty like. these lying to the final step up and good will i think your role model i can serve the community i can do basically what i'm doing now except in official capacity and i can do even more what a compliment first of all the people locally just you know pushed you is that because you're such a go getter that you have these organizational skills that you can cope create change and there's no bureaucracy or because you're a go getter and you get it done is that the big reason why i'm running this facebook group and i am the admin so there's no it there i think there were wiped out when people ask for help with things. like r eight let me answer this question i'll go right to the d p debbie director all go right to the head of the department so you can see the new the activist she. sees the open door opportunity to

take that to the next level frank yeah so now running they're only going to house the house because good to get a shot everyone tells me i do but i'm not let not taken that for granted i'm still knocking on doors i'm going to go knock on doors tonight we're going to debate on the next night i knocked out another three thousand c.m. if you don't win by a landslide it's because you didn't work hard enough we'll see i have a new. campaigning for your whole thing i said you should put a big poster it's is. in your life comes to you and says he. gosh i was really inspired that hillary clinton almost became the first woman preserve the united states you would really be suggest or give the advice to be yourself you can't fit into every mold i think this is not a mold that everyone will like right but you can be yourself and even if people don't agree with you they'll trust what you're saying you believe that you're genuine and it doesn't matter how smart you are home or not you know about things

if people if people can't trust you and this is literally i don't trust what you're saying to him you lost it yeah yeah and that's why fish has a comfort factor so i shall i can have a beer with george w. bush george w. bush not done but well spoken but i like him there me to be like i let this guy seems genuine. so this may be a very providential moment because maybe you'll be the first president to state such a woman and there were no i never thought i'd run for city killed stuff i want to put that much pressure and this quality about being the first woman president but you know what's interesting about this conversation because we're further down the journey of the pilgrimage which i am the leader of the pilgrimage. regular coffee regular people we're in trouble now from the leader of the pilgrimage i assure you but max is here to make everything goes smoothly actually max's shift was up five minutes ago. mavericks. like good

a walberg bomber to show up on your behalf mark warbird comes to town to back squali sounds like a party ok and you win by a landslide and it's all because you got in the door smith from want walberg and reconstructing like can we then change the name fits bird pittsburgh's to walberg laberge because you can do what you become the. the simple by the way we just by executive order i now want to clear fish bird is stephen is grossly overestimating the power of a single city council member and we'd love that here. we do have a baldwin fell that's a fire you know that both when bill and the generally right leaning oklahoma should come to the residence so. to say spoken like a true independent. in ten years your daughter is going to go to college approximately. what do you see ten years from now who will world war three be over

will it have happened didn't begin but what can be you do when you think about it like that and your daughter in the future is a hopeful future i have hope for the future that's what is america to me america is our freedom and our rights you know we shan't have the right to. protest things that we do not agree with we should have the right to live our lives without government interference now without excessive interference from outer space and be able to live our lives into the things that we like as long as we're not hurting other people listen. to the more i hear you loud and clear on how that's all going to wash out because i still think the problem still exists that half this country. wants what it wants. in the name of progress good have the country wants what it wants relevant to the tradition. is that it then has

always been a resistance to change with the seaman's to the left with a bill like change in the one down are we at the same coffee. you know them with their problem the original table one hundred forty holy cow was it right could be cool i probably. a lot of coffee. and frozen stuff i've been doing by the way loren square diners get the best they know the cheers right back you were there we go that's the road day one of massachusetts is in the books max has disappeared yet again. and stephen is finally learn how to pronounce fitchburg wow twenty two times that's it. fitchburg anyway from here our hero continues deeper into the bay state to find

more talents you can't pronounce and to learn about the sacrifice some americans that made for this great country next time on the great american pilgrimage we got into a firefight he would shoot so i hit him on the top of the head with my helmet tall enough he'd study. yeah. yeah.

join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sport this list i'm showbusiness i'll see that. it's hard to imagine after the war. was still like to the rich and the not in seventy ad as the chair of a man convicted of mass murder and slavery as a german company developed. a drug that was promoted as completely safe even during pregnancy it turned out to have terrible side effects what has happened to my baby anything. she said is just. victims i have to this day to

receive compensation they never apologized for the suffering that not only want the money i want the revenge. thank you thank thank you thank you. thank you thank you thank thank you. thank you lord. in the stories that shape who we could take center stage at the united nations general assembly in new york making bold claim. also ahead.

i recall saying that the boy to me could someday be on the u.s. supreme court why family and my name have been totally and permanently destroyed an emotional device.
