and the truth is it's it's their agenda that's that's basically driving the train right now both on the political side and and the information side to the public the hearings going to continue because hearings are attention grabbers a lot of this stuff is is targeted for for political means big tech needs to be reined in to some degree. what what could be done one i think looking at section $230.00 and the relevance of that perhaps looking at regulatory action like we did with like we do with a lot of energy companies. yeah if you have your say on it from a store in a site on t. dot com go the comments section let us know keep in touch on the break news and a social for the letter out for the break in as it may have throughout the day for now though we don't invest in finance kevin go in and the rest of the team signing off and join next shows in your part of the world. folks next up on dennis miller plus one i think she's a 1st open wheel indy car race winner and you pan at the japan $300.00 you know

what the year that was maybe back in 201-2008 somewhere in there and she led indy for 1000 laps finished 4th overall danica patrick chung new podcast you talk about gearing down from shift the 1st like the good part from i can't imagine if it hits the save buttons they're racing in the car that apache right up to the dennis miller plus one. hey folks welcome to dennis miller plus one we've got a warrior with us i cannot imagine what it's like to get out of that car be it stock or in the f one any of these guys a can imagine i'll sure you are and this our guest is a bit of a slight of a person to begin with so i don't think there was all that much weight to lose but it's danica patrick she burst onto the racing scene in may 25 when she led indy

bike 1000 laps finished 4th progress at 63 years later in april 2008 she became the 1st woman to win a major league open wheel racing was in japan for mama stake and she's now the host of well coming from a pretty intense career the pretty intense podcast please welcome than a patrick how are you going to get it how are you. a fine thing for her. it was probably on your hard drive from young i think i read on your notes as i was reading that you started to go carts and wisconsin a day. but. i want you to just speak about how tiring it is you know i often think about that and i say i know it's like reflexes all that and you know a good brain but man the duration must be the biggest part. yeah i mean back at the end of it going to let's say darlington for the southern $500.00 nascar

500 miles around darlington in the middle of the summer at night like so like the track is half way sandy is it so near the beach and the track was so hard to drive you drove up by the wall there always be a lot of yellow flags and that race i remember was 5 hours i remember one when your was 5 hours long so you know you start off and go carts going for 8 laps which takes minutes and then you know you graduate up just kind of like speed you know it's not like i all the sudden was in an indy car going 240 miles an hour i started off going you know 35 miles an hour in a go cart. you know when i when i think about golf they always talk about how you have to concentrate for 18 rounds because it can go away like that granted then you get a bogey in this car 35 in the team or if you go away for a 2nd you're into the wall and i always boggled. have you ever had a moment or would you even admit to it that you kind of go away mentally for

a 2nd or that just can't happen when you're just i would admit to yeah. you know maybe get a feel for it i'm pretty transparent but you know one of the times it happened it happened to me or the kind of time that it would happen more frequently is that say coming out of the corner and you kind of exit in off of the corner and you look to the inside of the track where there'd be a timing and scoring pylon and maybe you look to see where you were other cars were something like that you sort of check something out around your you look in your rearview mirror for a little bit and all the sudden you'd be like whoa press and you'd like just about hit the wall so you know it wasn't always like right in the corner except felt like i was able to stay locked in in those moments but there were plenty of others where you like run mine did how very focused you had to be at all times. you know then i went back to the live in mana seato and began to tell he was my neighbor my friend for years he takes me in the wants she takes me to the

brickyard we stay in that hell in the i.a.f. they've run of 8 airports it was the worst one not all of those. who aren't down the date for it. i'm in a place where i literally it's the hotel where i keep my shoes off some in the room . a.j. for it's sitting on a chase a lot jump above me would i you know i get the end of the day is just a good old boy i remember that about it and i also remember at the puts me in this 2 person car with this guy he does 4 lives to get set up to run 180 and i wish to shot you know i mean folks if you watch the race you can't believe it but it's sort of the new it's how dangerous it is because even a $180.00 i'm talking about 55 miles below what they might pick out at and. i couldn't believe that when i would get thrown into the side of the current term. yeah i think that at the highest level of everything including what you did being

able to stand on stage like those are the kind of things that people you know being able to have a monologue like the some people are so stiff so scared of you know being on a stage that they'd rather jump out of an airplane you know like there's there's so many things that. individual people are good at and so look i mean it wasn't as though i all the sudden did that like i said but yes that was what i did and you did things people can do and i did things people couldn't do and that's what makes them world magical right we get to go witnessing these and you think people doing amazing things oh i dug the juice he must've felt like such a bad. i mean really you know i mean those the. there's a there's a time in life when the man is the woman i look at brady and his the male and i look at the woman. or a fly there you must have dug the juice right and you know what made me feel really cool was when talladega when talladega came out by eric church he's singing about

how cool talladega was and i'm like yeah i do that. it is a rush. tell me about the incremental steps you take it to go karts like you said and i admired the moxie getting them these one play i can't believe as a young woman you take off to europe to run with those mad mad over there in an ancillary way it seems to have a career as a venture we'll talk about the oh yeah tell me oh no europe was a young woman. i mean i left school when i was 16 i had the opportunity to race over there and i left high school i ended up getting my ged so please don't ask me about how great school is because i won't have much to say i got my college i got my college education and in england racing cars and you know it was a real proving ground for me so it was over there that i met my eventual boss when i came back to the states which was bobby ray hall and he was running

a formula one team in england so get this so we met up in england at a t.g.i. friday's for lunch isn't that cute. and we kind of became friends and then i put him on the spot one day and he ended up giving me a job and. you know i'm so grateful that it worked out because it made him look smart because people were asking him like what are you thinking of hiring this girl and you know think thank goodness it ended up working out and i just about you know sat on the pole and won the indy 500 my 1st year but. and then i just and then i did a couple like a couple years of the formula right below indy cars and then it was in the car. no i think ends up with letterman at some point if i'm not mistaken but they then they end up doing some business together i think you know yeah i just thought a day began this year because i went and i was part of the broadcast and and so their driver to cusato one so i went down there and of course it's kind of

a crazy so you know you have your mask on and i tapped dave on the shoulder as like hi and then i had to like go pythonic and he's like oh how are you. but it began but it was good i'll see bob and bob when and you know especially just you know i have a soft spot he was just the guy who gave me a chance. dave one of the few guys who quite frankly is at home with social distancing because it was and. it was always a little wonder what sort of i think when they say you go stay 6 feet away from. letterman say and finally thank you very much where is that goodbye whole like you know then again when i went back to india and i watched the drivers photo and they were also genial guys but i was struck there's a lot of jockeying that. there's a lot of small guys you know you forget that that cabinet is i can imagine there must be some claustrophobia if you're too big you obviously a life diminutive gal when you jumped in it sort of fit way so you got the gold for

you right up front it's a better fit right now well you know i just couldn't dunk a basketball so i thought what else could i do and i fit right into the seat so yeah i'm definitely on the small side but most drivers are and i've often wondered i really have wondered whether or not it's. because you know we didn't fit into other sports well because you know racecar drivers are generally like fellows going to give a height and weight and probably be like 5 a 160 like small do and sometimes girls i'm not i mean 165-1110 so i was on the small side and i've often wondered if it's because we didn't work out in any other sports or because we're suited for the sport you know when i talk to those drivers the thing i remember is i've never felt more earthbound that i think the other athletes are my life i can sort of communicate

with tennis players a bit out there playing hack tennis like a civilian i can golf a little life. football players that kind of give you a wide berth are so big they understand when i talk to those drivers i could sense they barry pretty they they're good because they're into promotion and that and the branding and all that but early on i could see they were a little bored by me so i can't believe you you know they were nice about a but it's like they wanted you could see that they're in a different mindset it's not like they're going out there every day i can't believe i do there's they're going out there and think i need to do 3 more miles per hour has something to do thing that we were really are you saying that there's like an intellectual like what do you say no no i'm so you know there were a lot but i think they dug their place they were fully aware of that they probably reflects wise were in the top 110000th of one percent on the planet earth and they were when guys like me would go on about how dangerous it must be the kind of paid

lip service to it but they thought i kind of know what i'm doing and i also realize that you can go horribly wrong at any given moment but they have a fatalist about them. true true there is though though the thing that i noticed when i retired after i retired in 2018 and i finished up with the indy 500 and then i came back the next year was part of the broadcast and i realized as the cars were starting the raised and i'm sitting on pit lane eating some like apple chips or something like that like going wow it's really different this year than last year i remember thinking to myself like a i was able to read i was able to actually access that perspective of danger in the car that i wasn't able to really. really like accept and understand and even think about much because you knew you were you do it was dangerous but you didn't allow yourself to really feel that so i think

that once i was done i was like oh that was crazy. yeah well i can see why they have sponsors b. of a woman married to a man or a man with a woman go out with a clipboard and a stopwatch asking them to do splits because if you love somebody at least they're in the car they've got you that's in their hands when you're sitting there and you love somebody who's like you know you're you're part of it was i can't imagine doing that can't imagine watching somebody flying around at that speed but i'm trying to think that your have become a lot when you're married to the did it come to dances and how yeah i know but i was there he was always there and you know my 1st my 1st race had a really big x. and everyone was freaked out because i wasn't responding on the radio because it had broken apart so badly that there was i couldn't hear anything i also had some amnesia and you know ended up getting rushed to the hospital in an ambulance and things like that so maybe it was maybe actually they didn't talk and i couldn't

respond but then then after that i dated someone who did exactly what i did so after that i did it someone who did it who i've raced against. so if you're down they want the critter valentine's day one year we said he for valentine's day let's not trash each other. let's let so touch. but it's not chocolate covered strawberries or feeding pajamas but just to know you're not going to hurtle into turn 3 and drive somebody up into the wall i want to talk to you not agree when we get back the aggressive nature of well open wheel racing vs stock car racing god when i was a kid i used to watch leroy kelly arbor a pony those guys were beasts but i don't think they had the end he's in back then the surface is more danger now in a way but also they had the cars tear away but boy when you see guys her go into each other and they're fighting after you can understand because either right there

at the brink of a tourney i think we'll talk to her about the aggressive nature of the sport danica patrick and she's got the pretty intense podcast also going to speak about that and patrick right after this on the miss miller plus one. the most pathetic and dangerous consequence of the russia gate hoax is how it is bled into policy at the center of this hoax was to discredit and then finally destroy donald trump now it informs us russian relations the result is dire this bilateral relationship may never recover. americans love buying homes. this was a fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain you get

a home and then you know rebel right as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. be really interesting to dial it back and think about the longer deeper history housings man in the united states not just that question of the american dream the bigger question of who the dream is for. actually as a slight initial survival to stacy let's learn a salad let's say i'm not so i get a directly if i'm greased on bank of the fight well street strong thank you for thank. you. for the story that's right well out of debt slavery.

welcome back to dennis miller plus one we're talking to patrick and. the victory in the indy car series the 1st woman ever to win a major league open wheel race and i did ask if it was japan was the japan 300 and it was in 2008 i want to i'm trying to think what are. i never well when you want to over to europe i'm sure you saw between soccer and have one of cricket those you know that's the world over there here it was always in the or stock cars i dug both and i'm trying to glean a somebody who's raced them both what what is the big difference. so tell me the answer. i mean it's from a driver's perspective the differences. you know the aerodynamics of the cars kind of are working a little bit more in reverse what's in front of you in an indy car mattered a lot and what's behind you in a stock car actually matters more so it's not completely like it doesn't it's not

that it doesn't matter when someone's in front of you but let's say in superspeed ways when you're working with a lot of speed near dynamics like you need someone to be behind you to push you in a stock car been an indy car you wanted to get a draft from someone in front of you so. so and some of the ways that the terminologies were also in reverse like you'd be referring to the front in an indy car versus the rear in a stock car so there was some little differences there. fundamentals of the same that's a car but like everything's different you know in a way so it's. yeah there are quite different era dynamics are probably one of the biggest things i going to every time i go to think which one i prefer i dig them both and i just like the i don't i like people who go for a big bite out of life and you know i have it in me with stand up to some degree but stand up it's not that frightening if it goes horribly you go get better you

walk off stage i always look at people who are right on the edge and i think boy i can about a life fully lived there i know you can at the market because people don't want to hear that living on the edge is the thing you i but the juice is fine and we all get around 80 years here if you can get through this and have some action like that what a great. what a great feeling that is which i can do that a competitor and she is in the podcast where i'm not for somebody who's talking about being a little daunted by the 8 minute monologue at the espy's i can tell you after doing a podcast for a while folks if you don't talk it's not happening so you know you start and you've got to keep go and and it's a little daunting at 1st then i found a very liberating because i just thought if you can't plan the side just talk for a while interview the guest have some fun how are you doing it so far on the pretty intense podcast. yeah thank you and that's such rich real truth i through i truly love it but as we're you know riffing about before we started i had to learn

how to shut up like i'm used to being interviewed and i'm used to rambling on and telling stories and that's kind of the point and when you start doing a show. it's very egotistical just like sit there and just ramble on about yourself so i had to really like to learn how to not share my own stories and use my stories as more of a navigation to get into something that they might be able to share that's interesting and you know me telling my own stories is like becoming less and less because i'm finding you know it's all about it's all about the guest you know of course i can't help but sprinkle it in here and there but but i really love it and i just am such an avid learner of the older i get the more i want to learn and so i realize that you know when i'm talking right now there's some level of therapy and talking through things yourself about yourself that you you. there is a processing element to being interviewed but it's very minimal and when you're

interviewing people who are just a just consuming so much information never mind the preparation so you know i find that like when i have a bunch of shows to do in a week they usually clump together and i mean i'm just like deep diving and all these people listening to a podcast that they've done looking at articles that have been written about them just you know kind of getting a feel for them but i used to do like a lot of preparation before people and some people require a little bit more because it's perhaps like a scientist or a doctor and so you know it's a little bit more educational male role model and. yeah and so it's but it's fascinating so but i've learned that as i've gone along i've had i've getting a more and more and more efficient system to getting to know my guests so that i can get the questions ready and really kind of learning actually like identifying what it is about my show that's different and where i tend to go every time so it's a little sort of. self identification in a way or realization about the core of each interview that i don't think i quite

knew in the beginning but it's becoming more and more. clear but interesting to me what are you default to what did you find your pattern was when you would be interviewing people and you know what. what. common path would you take that you have noticed well i really like to get to the root and truth of who the person is so the likelihood of me addressing exactly what they do for the whole or half the show even is pretty low like a lot of times i even like to get on the topic of just other things that they enjoy doing and what's fun is that because i guess it comes from a little bit of this perspective about myself knowing that well you know racing is what i did one joy it's so much about it and aspects that i just love that wasn't necessarily racing that i loved and since you've talked to so many different people

including athletes of course you've probably done plenty of interviews where you talk to the person and you know like they didn't really love their sport and so i kind of fall into that category of like i didn't love racing itself like i don't go to the track i don't go race anything just because i love getting in the car i love aspects about racing and so who i am is kind of deeper and different than just racing it was just my medium for the aspects about it that i loved and so i like to get into that aspect about people's like or that or the parts about them that are not so obvious that are really truly who they are and what they love and sometimes it's exactly what they do a lot of times it's not and it's fun to watch people just light up when they start talking about other things that they love doing. and i'm always working in sort of like a truth aspect of you know the conditioning that they had as a child to the you know the lessons that they learned along the way that were

really really or. that's just really good and then you know and then some spirituality because i'm kind of a hippie a kid did you ever run of the smaller. in order nor were there others either. spot there's never a greying i never once in arkansas but that's ok i did go to spot you know so much about racing please you know way more than just about anybody else i talk to i just i thought squad norburn horse the same playing so i don't know that much but i read about these places over there and i always think what it must be like to wear one of those races tell me about running at the swap yeah so there's a couple really big corners there one is there's like super fast as is going up the hill and you know in the car that i was driving back then it was a formula ford so it had no weighings which meant no extra downforce the faster you went in and really go that much more downforce and so you know you're supposed to be flat going up the hill and i don't know if i ever got there or not but then it

was such a long track and then i think the corner is over rouge maybe or something like that or blash amman or something back over there they named all their corners with names like in america we call it turn one turn 5. moring but. it's funny we have like the weird measuring system here that could be so much more simple but over there they name everything they name the cars instead of giving them numbers we should all collaborate but anyway so there was a super fast right hand corner and and i remember recognizing just why that was such a tricky corner because i mean it was just so flat out and so fast and in the car i was driving it was like you breezed it for a 2nd. but it was really cool and you know what you know what i remember also about it it was where i felt i must have. you mentioned klein and that's actually where i fell in love i remember i had my 1st bottle of shepley that night

and i think i had like a wild boar and ship lee and that was really like the most memorable bottle of wine i've ever had because i just remember it being so delicious and anyway it led to i have to wine labels now but but and. then i'll show remember shepley stuck with you in addition to the the the light it is and i believe it's she is the sole proprietor of saw me i'm as which is their own vineyard i can imagine how cool that was a that was very like it was a lot of. fun and you like a nice dry white does it still you're followed to this day you know what's funny i feel like is that when you drink wine it starts off a sweet way wine then you drink drive away wine which is where the shipley came in and then you go into red and then you just like dedicated to red and then all this and you come back around and start drinking everything so i'm back to everything and i suddenly a makes a cabernet rose day and 70 on blonde and then last year we just launched the danica

rosé which is a french it's made in prevents france and so it's made grown and made there so we're supposed to the launch party was supposed to be last year at the formula one race and so it's going to be this year at the f one race in monaco so let me get like i hope that happens but i lead to so i hope you get an idolator in the writings listen when i tried to make the passage over to reds and i find the tannins used to make the back of my jaw who if there was heavy tenants something would make my jaw heard so much that i went back to dry whites i was trying to act like i was a song or something but i would find that are really what people would love to read why was something it didn't work for my out so i'm a drama white guy my myself and it is song the i'm next time i'm up in the valley i'm going to have to go over and see dad because white rich and how do you have space over in europe do you like run top or little plot on

a bigger vineyard or do you have a vineyard there of your own we we do contracts with. and then your aunts and and contract contract the grapes yeah and then have a wine maker over there. well listen when you asked me earlier what interview tips i would say this i'm always a narrative world class athletes you know people always see and they always 2nd guess the end result when i think of a 10 year old girl getting into a go car when i think of a 1617 year old girl going over to europe the road race with the jackie stewart's of the world and they're like when i think about a young woman meeting ray coming back here getting into indy taking it over 500 mile races and nascar getting out and leading a fulfilled life after all that as a woman in 4 and it's so nice to meet a down economy i mean huge. thank you very nice to meet here and i'm and this is a lot of fun and it's really fun to talk to somebody not so much about racing so i take that as

a compliment and it was then it was really really nice to meet you this way. all right kiddo good to talk to you will see it down the road and this is been dennis miller. always be polite never engage with confrontational. get into any conversation or start answering questions just ask. one. you're more likely to walk free if you're rich. or if you're poor. you got 2 eyes and one mouth.

so you should be seen in here and a whole lot more than you're saying if you don't take that advice easy going to dig yourself. but you saw one meal a day and a growing mental health crisis stuck in isolation students in france. a group. numbers of. britain braces for a job drugs. they were wasting slots that could be.
