[SPEAKER_00] Thank you.
[SPEAKER_01] Like the first water, pipe is on nearly low.
[SPEAKER_00] Onion, garlic, wheat, tomato, fresh or dried...
[SPEAKER_00] Mechanical forging of all dimensions and specifications.
[SPEAKER_01] Price of me, now represented in America by Lang & Associates.
[SPEAKER_01] If your joints expruthiate, ears sanguinate, or feet distend and tumify,
[SPEAKER_00] you have but one new...
[SPEAKER_00] dat is een varken dat is een hond dat is een hond
[SPEAKER_00] Hey, dat is nog een hond.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een kat.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat zijn schapen.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een hond.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een paard!
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een blad.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een kip.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een rat.
[SPEAKER_00] Dat is een paard.
[SPEAKER_02] If I may, I was curious about your past with Braddock.
[SPEAKER_02] You two clearly have a history.
[SPEAKER_01] Edward was one of us upon a time.
[SPEAKER_01] and I considered him a close friend.
[SPEAKER_01] He was brave and bold in ways few men are.
[SPEAKER_01] But everything changed at the siege of Bergen-Op-Zum.
[SPEAKER_01] We had lost the fortress to the French
[SPEAKER_01] and were in the midst of egress.
[SPEAKER_01] There was a skiff hidden at the port with which we planned to make our escape.
[SPEAKER_01] As we drew near, a young man and his family came upon us,
[SPEAKER_01] begging for safe passage.
[SPEAKER_01] I consented,
[SPEAKER_01] but Edward refused.
[SPEAKER_01] The young man called him.
[SPEAKER_01] Kraven, then.
[SPEAKER_01] So Edward killed him and all the rest.
[SPEAKER_01] Even the children?
[SPEAKER_01] To this day, I don't know why.
[SPEAKER_01] Was this the first time he'd struck out?
[SPEAKER_01] Or had I simply never seen it before?
[SPEAKER_01] Either way, things were never the same after that.
[SPEAKER_01] We campaigned together a few more times,
[SPEAKER_01] but each outing was more disturbing than the last.
[SPEAKER_00] He killed, killed.
[SPEAKER_01] Enemy or ally.
[SPEAKER_01] civilian or soldier guilty or innocent it mattered not if he perceived one to be an obstacle they
[SPEAKER_01] died he maintained that violence was a more efficient solution it became his mantra and it
[SPEAKER_01] broke my heart i had no idea he hides it well and intimidates into silence any who discover him
[SPEAKER_01] those who persist
[SPEAKER_01] have a tendency to find misfortune.
[SPEAKER_02] And we should stop him.
[SPEAKER_01] I suppose you're right.
[SPEAKER_01] But I maintain a foolish hope that he might yet be saved
[SPEAKER_01] and brought back round to reason.
[SPEAKER_00] I know, I know.
[SPEAKER_01] It's a silly thing to believe that one so drenched in death
[SPEAKER_01] might suddenly change.
[SPEAKER_02] I'm sorry to have brought this up.
[SPEAKER_02] It was not my intent to sour you.
[SPEAKER_01] Nonsense. We are brothers now.
[SPEAKER_01] There should be no secrets between us.
[SPEAKER_00] Bergen op zomers in Nederland.
[SPEAKER_03] But that's not what guided me, no
[SPEAKER_03] For me, it was a less abstract thing
[SPEAKER_00] I like money
[SPEAKER_01] There are other paths to fortune
[SPEAKER_03] Nothing else is as precious nor so desperately craved
[SPEAKER_03] And no price is too great for the man or woman who fears an abrupt end
[SPEAKER_01] permanent end your words are cruel benjamin but true as well you took an oath to help people
[SPEAKER_03] did you not i abide the oath which makes no mention of price i merely require compensation
[SPEAKER_01] fair compensation for my services and if they lack the
[SPEAKER_03] funds. Then there are others who will serve them. Does a baker grant free bread
[SPEAKER_03] to a beggar? Does the tailor offer a dress to the woman who cannot afford to
[SPEAKER_01] pay? No. Why should I? You said it yourself. Nothing is more precious than life.
[SPEAKER_03] Indeed. All the more reason one should ensure they have the means to preserve it.
[SPEAKER_00] Daar ben ik het al mee eens.
[SPEAKER_02] I hope you and the general find a way to patch things up.
[SPEAKER_02] Don't let me keep you, sir.
[SPEAKER_02] I'm sure you have more important things to do.
[SPEAKER_00] Charles Lee was a British.
[SPEAKER_00] soldier went on to be a major figure in the revolutionary war lee's father was a colonel
[SPEAKER_00] in the british army and started his son off in a military career early he was sent to a military
[SPEAKER_00] academy in switzerland during his formative years and then in 1764 lee became an ensign in
[SPEAKER_00] switzerland
[SPEAKER_00] father's regiment. Lee was sent to the colonies in 1755 to fight back in the French and Indian
[SPEAKER_00] war. He served under Edward Braddock and then later at Fort Ticonderoga where he was injured
[SPEAKER_00] in the fighting. Lee recovered and later fought at Fort Niagara.
[SPEAKER_00] I had always thought there was a lot of fort fights fought.
[SPEAKER_00] He finished his time in colonies with the British conquest of Montreal.
[SPEAKER_00] Lee returned to England in 1760, possibly because he was seeking career advancement.
[SPEAKER_00] He was named a Major in 1761.
[SPEAKER_00] was sent to fight the Spanish in Portugal.
[SPEAKER_00] Though his service record there was good,
[SPEAKER_00] Lee didn't receive praise on his return home.
[SPEAKER_00] In fact, he was retired from the army at half pay.
[SPEAKER_00] After that, Lee became a vocal critic of military higher-ups
[SPEAKER_00] and the British prime minister.
[SPEAKER_00] thought that his military of he found and the british prime minister minister and a british
[SPEAKER_00] prime minister and fought found after that lee became a vocal critic of military higher-ups
[SPEAKER_00] and the british prime minister and found that his military career had inexplicably completely stalled
[SPEAKER_00] Benjamin Franklin was a renowned inventor, diplomat, and one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence.
[SPEAKER_00] Translation, he was a rock star of the age.
[SPEAKER_00] He was a rock star of the age.
[SPEAKER_00] Benjamin Franklin was born in Boston in 1706, the 10th son of a soap maker, 10 sons, I guess
[SPEAKER_00] his parents couldn't afford a television and also there was no television.
[SPEAKER_00] He began working for his brother in 1718.
[SPEAKER_00] as an apprentice printer however their relationship was rocky particularly after the elder franklin
[SPEAKER_00] found out that young benjamin had been writing for the paper under a pseudonym silence too good
[SPEAKER_00] and writing an extremely popular column that human nature being what it is the fact that the column
[SPEAKER_00] was popping
[SPEAKER_00] popular, was probably the bigger problem. Benjamin ran away in 1723 and headed for Philadelphia
[SPEAKER_00] where he continued his career in printing and writing, eventually buying the Pennsylvania
[SPEAKER_00] said the business i mean not just the copy that would have been one of his lesser achievements
[SPEAKER_00] he stayed in philadelphia
[SPEAKER_00] he stayed in philadelphia for most of his life that is when he wasn't making extended trips to
[SPEAKER_00] europe
[SPEAKER_00] Franklin had a talent for persuasion, and that made him an ideal diplomat.
[SPEAKER_00] In 1775, he went to London to represent Pennsylvania in an ongoing legal battle with the Penn family.
[SPEAKER_00] It was the first of several extended political trips to Britain, and he would
[SPEAKER_00] act as the state representative of massachusetts georgia and new jersey as well in fact franklin
[SPEAKER_00] was in europe for most of the revolution though he was in the columns to help with the writing
[SPEAKER_00] of the declaration of independence franklin was a vocal opponent of british impositions
[SPEAKER_00] on the colonies
[SPEAKER_00] like the Stamp Act. And although he first fought for the rights of colonists, as British citizens
[SPEAKER_00] he eventually became convinced, like many of the founding fathers, that independence was the only
[SPEAKER_00] real solution. Unfortunately, Franklin's change of heart made him clash with
[SPEAKER_00] his son william who served as the royal governor of new jersey william remained an active loyalist
[SPEAKER_00] the father and son never spoke again when he wasn't founding a new nation and destroying
[SPEAKER_00] his family in the process franklin was a scientist inventing things like biblicals
[SPEAKER_00] and more efficient wood stoves when he
[SPEAKER_00] wasn't mapping the gulf stream and discovering how electricity works.
[SPEAKER_00] What have you done today?
[SPEAKER_00] Made yourself a microwave meal and sat about in your underwear?
[SPEAKER_00] Oh, well done you.
[SPEAKER_00] He was also quite the lady killer.
[SPEAKER_00] Jesus, this guy.
[SPEAKER_00] Carrying on several friendships with a woman while he was in Europe.
[SPEAKER_00] jesus this guy carrying on several friendships with women while he was in europe the record
[SPEAKER_00] the records the records don't say what exactly they saw in him
[SPEAKER_00] they certainly not his looks maybe a woman like a man whose intelligence
[SPEAKER_00] if that was true
[SPEAKER_00] I wouldn't be here
[SPEAKER_00] I'd be in Portugal surrounded by them
[SPEAKER_00] and you'd be
[SPEAKER_00] looking at a blank screen
[SPEAKER_00] William Johnson
[SPEAKER_00] William Johnson was a land
[SPEAKER_00] speculator
[SPEAKER_00] and Britain's
[SPEAKER_00] principal treaty negotiator
[SPEAKER_00] with the
[SPEAKER_00] in
[SPEAKER_00] indigenous peoples in the northern part of the colonies, particularly the Iroquois.
[SPEAKER_00] The Iroquois Johnson was born in Ireland but moved to the colonies in 1738 to look after
[SPEAKER_00] his uncle's property on the Mohawk River.
[SPEAKER_00] However, it wasn't long before Johnson branched out into business for himself, acquire property on the opposite side of the river, setting up a sawmill and trading post, which he named Mount Johnson, which to me always sounds.
[SPEAKER_00] like mating instructions from a caveman in 1743
[SPEAKER_00] he moved to an even larger parcel of land which he named fort johnson
[SPEAKER_00] he may have been an excellent businessman but it's possible he lacked an imagination
[SPEAKER_00] Johnson befriended the indigenous peoples in the area, particularly the
[SPEAKER_00] Kenyan Kihaka, whose language he learned. His respect for their customs helped him
[SPEAKER_00] rise to prominence as Liaisen between the Iroquois and the
[SPEAKER_00] Kwai's people and the British government. Johnson was named Superintendent of Indian
[SPEAKER_00] Affairs in 1765 as a contact who knows the land and its people. He's probably the best
[SPEAKER_00] you'll find.
[SPEAKER_00] John Pitcairn. In 1754, John Pitcairn was a young captain in the British Marine Corps.
[SPEAKER_00] He fought in the French and Indian War, but I can't find much about his post.
[SPEAKER_00] postings. He listed as being on the HMS Lancaster during the capture of Louisbourg in Canada.
[SPEAKER_00] No record of him being on the American side of the colonies. But it seems he did some
[SPEAKER_00] covert work as well. That would explain the lack of details. Pitcairn was promoted to
[SPEAKER_00] Major in 1917.
[SPEAKER_00] 71 and he gained a reputation for being well liked by subordinates and praised
[SPEAKER_00] by his enemies that's difficult trick to pull off maybe he had a lovely smile
