8:03 am
world, and they receive a fair wage for the work that they put into the products that they make. fair trade is a very person-to-person relationship, because the money goes back to the individual, and it helps a mother in china feed her children or a father in guatemala send his children to school. ten thousand villages the store helps artisans to have access to the global market in a fair way. let me show you some of my favorite stuff. indonesia. cameroon. vietnam. uganda. nepal. india and egypt. how's this for a global market? sri lanka. this is one of my favorite artisans. his name is john ogow obuya, and he's from kenya. and he makes these stone sculptures. and this is absolutely gorgeous. the way ten thousand villages discovers people like john is they went to his village, actually, and they found out
8:04 am
going to school. and the reason was they had to help support their families. and so ten thousand villages started working with people like john and selling their crafts. because the adults in this village like john now have access to the global market the children in the area can have the opportunity to just be normal children and live normal lives. this is a huge hammock i have here. this probably takes about a month to make, and it's extremely labor intensive. and we're only selling this in the united states here for $120, which is barely anything for people in the united states, but it's doing a huge amount of good for the woman who made this and her family. and so that's how global market is impacting the lives of people all around the world. the global economy is everywhere. >> are you ready? >> g-l-o-b-a-l space e-c-o-n-o- m-y. >> that was really tough. >> global... >> so when it comes to the global economy... >> but as a matter of fact, it

8:11 am
really the difference between a long board and, like, a normal skateboard is there's... the normal skateboards are kind of shorter, they're more a trick board. but long boards are more meant just for bombing down hills where you just go way too fast down hills that are way too steep. well, my business really depends on the global economy. for example, here a couple months back, there was a shortage of baltic birch, and that's the main wood that i use for every one of my boards. baltic boards. and so everywhere... everywhere was out. there was no wood. you know, the supplies all got eaten up, and they there was no more wood to replace, you know, what was already on the market. >> hey, tyson! hey, tyson! oh hey, tyson. hey man, i'm looking for some zebra wood veneer. you got any? >> okay, yeah, no problem. it's right over here. let me go get it. >> nice. oh, man, this stuff is beautiful.

8:13 am
i mean, it's... and they can order a board, and it will be there in three weeks. it does. it takes the whole world to make these things. this board is a great example of the global economy. it starts with... the birch is from northern russia, and then the veneer is from western africa. it comes to me in washington, and then i ship it off to... back to europe. this truck here, this was probably milled in germany, and then the wheels, they were probably made in asia, but the rubber probably came from india. we bring it all together here in washington. and you know what? once some kid gets all these products together, they got a killer skateboard, and they're ready to rip. >> hey biz kids, go global like

8:17 am
>> i think what the disembodied voice is trying to say is that today with the globalized economy, and all of these different countries trying to manufacture things, it really comes down to the manufacturing costs. >> precisely. >> so, like, for example, with this phone, with all the different economies, in some countries it might be cheaper to produce this than in others. like if the labor or the parts are cheaper there than in other places. >> so in some countries that phone costs less to make than in others. >> exactly. well, thanks for listening, you two. glad i could help out. uh, buh-bye. >> man, this italian marble is heavy. i wonder where it comes from. >> ( laughing ) hey leonard, you hear what joe just said?

8:28 am
city in ireland. originally founded as a viking settlement, the kingdom of dublin became ireland' s principal city following the norman invasion. dublin expanded rapidly in the seventh century, and for a while, was the second-largest city in the british empire. the globalization and world cities research network recognizes dublin as one of the top 30 cities in the world. historical and contemporary, industrious and cultural, educational and fun. one of dublin' s history and success is this--the river liffey. ireland' s mountains, collecting that fresh irish spring water, ending here in dublin where it meets the sea. with dozens of tributaries, 60% of the river' s flow is used for drinking water and to supply industry.
8:29 am
is fun. rent a kayak and tour the city, pass by the city center, and under the ha' penny bridge. dock the kayak and walk along the boardwalks and trails following the river. explore the canals, too, like this one-- portobello canal. here in grand canal, it' s time to get airborne. this is wake dock, ireland' s first cable wakeboard park right in the heart of dublin. the speed of the cable can be adjusted to the rider' s ability. with calm waters and steady speeds, it' s the perfect place feeling a bit extreme, it' s also set up for the advanced. 3 obstacles, including a kicker, a slider, and a rooftop ramp, all promising plenty of air and plenty of challenge. you' ll be ready for the open water in no time. for a slightly more chill way to see the area, viking splash tours offers views of the city by land and water
8:30 am
tour vehicle. all right, let' s dock the boat and head into the city. one of the first things you might notice is not a sight but a sound. the music scene in dublin is on point. check this out. street musicians, folk singers, rockers, new age, classic, and everything in between. hard working class heroes is ireland' s premier music festival. over 100 bands, 7 venues in 3 days. it' s a jam- packed weekend of the best bands ireland has to offer. the annual event always features a mix of the locally well known, but it' s famous for music discovery. if you want to see the next great band coming out of ireland, this is the place. well-known musician hozier played the hard working class heroes event in 2013, the same year he released his ep
8:31 am
title track that was eventually nominated for a grammy for song of the year. clearly culture is alive and well in dublin. let' s rent a bike and explore it. dublin is a great city for cycling. we can stop at grafton street performers. let' s cruise along o' connell street to see the spire of dublin, a 400-foot tall stainless-steel sculpture. in dublin, public art is all over the place. we can also check out statues of famous locals like activist jim larkin, musician and thin lizzy front man phil lynott, and legendary writer oscar wilde. for some great shopping, s head over to the powerscourt townhouse centre. with over 40 shops and restaurants, it' s loaded with new fashion, one-of-a-kind antiques and vintage pieces, handmade jewelry, locally made arts and crafts, decadent foods, and gourmet coffee.
8:32 am
some of the best shopping in the world. there are also plenty of places to learn like the national museum of ireland. this natural-history branch, located right here in dublin, shows off some amazing animal exhibits like species of deer, monkeys, moose, and zebras. s green, a city center park opened since 1880, go for a stroll or enjoy some ice cream on a warm day by the fountain. nearby is this gem--ivy gardens. play a little frisbee or do whatever this guy' s doing. dublin is a cultural urban city, but it' s also geared towards outdoor fun. along the coast, you' ll find picturesque marinas, swimming spots, biking trails, and great hiking, too. coming up, we tour the largest church in ireland, taste the local fare, and get active.
8:33 am
we' re sticking around in dublin for a little more sightseeing. check out this magnificent structure. although the church was founded in 1191 here in dublin, the st. patrick' s cathedral that you see today was built between 1220 and 1259. built in the gothic style, the pointed arches are designed to draw the eyes to the heavens. from the outside, the 140-foot spire is a beacon of historical significance and architectural beauty. in the 1860s, the cathedral was restored, thanks to sir benjamin lee guinness, a member of the well-known brewing family. his design altered the church to a more open-plan layout and extended the ceiling around the entire structure. the cathedral
8:34 am
money raised from tours helps to keep the building in tip-top shape. patrick was ireland' s patron saint and is celebrated for introducing christianity to the irish people. in 1901, a well was discovered in the area of the cathedral. it' s this well that many believe st. patrick used to baptize people back in the fifth century. the grave slab that was found covering the well is on display in the cathedral along with 3 others discovered in the area. on the west end of the cathedral, the st. patrick' s window tells the story of his life in 39 different images. he' s also depicted in the stain-glass window above the main altar. [organ playing] music has been a large part of the cathedral since its foundation. the st. patrick' s cathedral choir school, founded in 1432, is the oldest school in ireland. the choir students sing twice a day in the cathedral. in 1742, the first performance of handel'
8:35 am
"messiah" was sung right here. in 1492, 2 powerful warring families, the butlers and fitzgeralds, battled over the position of lord deputy based at dublin castle. the butlers took refuge from the battle in the chapter house of st. patrick' s cathedral and claimed an ancient law of sanctuary. after hours of arguing through the walls, gerald fitzgerald offered a truce and promised the butlers would not be attacked if they came out. but the butlers refused, afraid of being tricked. to show his good faith, gerald fitzgerald took an axe to the door, chopped a hole through it, and extended his arm through the hole, offering his hand in peace. they shook hands and peace was made. all that remains of the chapter house today is this piece--the door of reconciliation with the big hole in it. several artifacts are also on display from another famous conflict--the battle of the boyne in 1690. the battle was fought for
8:36 am
and ireland. after winning the battle, king william iii visited the cathedral in dublin and held a ceremonial service, officially returning the cathedral to protestantism. the chair that william used during this service is on display in the cathedral. lord lisburn was a member of william' s army killed during a siege a year after the battle of the boyne. he' s buried here alongside other members of his family underneath the altar. this cannonball, hung above his grave, is the very same cannonball responsible for his death. st. patrick' s cathedral has remained a protestant establishment since being restored in 1690 by king william. and today, it' s recognized as the national cathedral of the church of ireland. all this historical touring has made me hungry. time for some brain food. that sounds gross. let' s just say it' s time to eat. for that, we' re heading across
8:37 am
with direct access to the north atlantic and plenty of fishable waters across the galway bay, we' re getting the chance to taste some of the best seafood in ireland. more specifically, the galway oyster, found only in this part of the north atlantic. locals take great pride in providing the best oyster possible. oysters used to be part of a poor man' s dish, and these particular oysters helped ireland' s poor get through difficult times. now it' s a delicacy that can be enjoyed by all walks of life just as long as you' re walking near galway. down the north atlantic coast is this place--the town of dingle. here we sample more of ireland' s incredible seafood. this family-run fishing company hauls up crab, salmon, and prawns. other companies in the area bring up lobsters, too. traditional fishermen supply the local restaurants and food vendors. smoked fish is very popular, especially when served

8:39 am
the different guests that arrived brought representative foods from their culture. it' s a great place to learn the origin of well-known irish foods and taste them in their original form. a large part of ireland' s food heritage stems from this well- known vegetable--the potato. in 1840, a disease commonly known as potato blight caused the great famine, otherwise known as the irish potato famine. the reason this singular disease caused widespread death was because so many people relied almost solely on the potato in their diet. today, the potato is still a large part of the irish culinary world. local growers take great pride in their crops, and many cooks have discovered fantastic ways to use the potato in their dishes. potato pies, potato puddings, even chocolate potato cake. yum. apparently a good
