66. Ivan Raklin, Im going to Win OR Im not going to Lose
===

Nurse Kelly: [00:00:00] Welcome to after Hours with Dr. Sigoloff, where he can share ideas and thoughts with you. He gets to the heart of the issue so that you can find the truth. The views and opinions expressed are his and do not represent the US Army, d o d, nor the US government. Dr. Siglo was either off duty or on approved leave and Dr.

Nurse Kelly: Sigoloff was not in uniform at the time. Of recording now to Dr. Sigoloff.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Thanks for joining me again. I have a wonderful guest here, but before I introduce Ivan, I want to give a special thanks to all my Patreon supporters. I wanna thank you very much. This past week I was able to give you a sneak peek of the episode cuz I was able to get it completed and edited and put up on Patreon for only the supporters prior to it being put out on Rumble.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: I want to give a special thanks to Sam and Angela Sheey. I wanna give a thanks to Perry, Kevin, Alans, Katie, Victoria. Kate, Victoria Joe and pj, thank you so much for helping support me. Anybody who's been able to purchase one of these, I wanna thank [00:01:00] you very much for helping support me. I've got them available.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: I'm doing in batches about 48, mainly not to overwhelm my shipping department, which is just my wife. So we're, we're using all of those funds to help. The, the try and help offset some of the costs where we've spent over $60,000 so far on legal fees just to try and keep my good name good, even though they, I've done nothing wrong.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: All right, so that brings us to Ivan Raichlen. So Ivan was re is now retired Lieutenant Colonel was in the Green Beret and we met through some, some various friends that, that most people in the audience know, but we'll leave that name out at the moment. And you were a lawyer.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Constitutional lawyer is, is in, in the military and you still continue to practice constitutional.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Okay, so let me just a quick introduction. Thanks for that, Sam. Thanks for having me on your show after hours and off duty in our personal capacities as always, right? Yes sir. Exercising our first amendment that is ours to you as we like [00:02:00] for those listening in that are haters.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So with that said, I spent the last quarter of a century often on and off active duty garden. In all three capacities, all Army, right? As well as as a civilian contractor in different capacities supporting the Department of Defense via the Defense Intelligence Agency and whatnot. And I would say that my last two, well, I served as a Green Beret intel officer, spanning tactical, operational, strategic.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: We can go in a little bit more detail since your au audience is probably more military, right? I'll give a little more detailed introduction on that. I served as a detachment commander in 20th group, 20th Special Forces. If you guys wanna take a look and see and, and check me out and see what haters I have out there.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: You know, I missed my military career. By all means do. So. 19 Special Forces Group. I had the honor privilege serving as a company commander. Had a really good experience there, the Texas National Guard, but my deployed time was, [00:03:00] Essentially, I'd say in four buckets. One was out there, you know, it went to Afghanistan, did the old counter Taliban mission, if you will.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Then we went to, let's see, I was the military attache as well, and that was as what do you call it, and to Andi, Georgia has a reserve attach. So for those that don't know what that is, and I'm a military diplomat. Yes, I do speak Russian as well as Spanish, Arabic, and French. Picked those up along the way.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: And then I've served in Central and South America, obviously Spanish, doing a mission in El Salvador, Honduras. So obviously, you know, supporting our US embassy and then our partners to, to counter the MS 13 threat. And then what else did we do? Jordan went to Jordan countering helping partners in Jordan to counter the ISIS threat.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Right? And then lastly, I'd say, You know, from a domestic perspective, coupled with what [00:04:00] I did in the Republic of Georgia to counter the, the Russian threat was I served in the, on the Ukraine crisis team in the Pentagon and had the, this was in 2014, and a lot of the stuff coming out about our good friends let's just say the the beloved son Hunter, and then.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: If you've seen the report on his, his laptop as published by a nonprofit called Marco Polo usa, it's about 620 pages that references about 459 crimes committed by him, his siblings, his uncle, and his beloved father, which we're probably not gonna get into in this episode. That's, that's something for the states to resolve.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: For the the Congress to resolve which I'm actually helping out

Dr Sam Sigoloff: when I get off active duty. I can have you come back on, maybe we can talk about some of that.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Well, yeah, you, you don't need to talk about it, but I sure am heavily involved in making sure that there is remedy for the abject [00:05:00] constitutional violations that have occurred.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So let, let me back up. So close out my introduction. So that's my background is special ops in. What have you. And those different deployments shaped my perspective, opinion, and professional background, coupled with when I was not on active duty and not in in status, if you will, in military status because I did some significant portion of my career in Garden and Reserve when I wasn't on status, I ended up obtaining a, a law degree and then really focus my efforts on constitutional issues, particularly in the national security space.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So constitutional, national security. When, let's just say when our constitution is being violated ad nauseum, I call it the, the unadulterated mutilation by certain actors within our constitutional actors that are violating that constitution. I, you know, whether it's in or outta uniform, I find it, it's an [00:06:00] obligation to call those people out.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: I don't care. I don't care who they are, what positions they, they're, Bottom line is people that can violate the Constitution are those that are constitutional actors, which means they're either members of the article one branch of government, that's the legislature, article two branch of government, which is the executive branch or the Article three branch of government.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Right. The judicial. And then you can argue also that the Article four branch of government are the states, so that technically speaking, the states are not in. As a robust position to violate the constitution because the, what most people fail to realize, the highest authority in our constitutional construct is not the Supreme Court, it is the state legislatures, because for those that don't agree with me, let's go back into history.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: When America one point. The beta version, if you will, was established in [00:07:00] 1776. It was just proclaimed as a land mass, right, of 13 colonies. Then we moved on to our 2.0, if you will, which was the Articles of Confederation, the 13 articles that laid out the rule book of how these 13 colonies are now 13 states that are going to interact with each other with a practically non-existent centralized form of.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Confederation, right? And then we moved on to America. I guess you went from beta to 1.0 2.0, we'll call it the United States Constitution, which was passed on September 17th, 1787. The reason why I go into this detail is that folks that are in the mil that are in our federal government that have taken the Title five section 33 30 to the cons, I get it.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Most of you are gonna be able to say, oh yeah, I know the oath. I can memorize it, and then you start to spew it out. Okay, great. We [00:08:00] all can do that. But it doesn't, that is not even the start. If I ask you, Sam, and anybody, and I'm, this is exactly to put you on the spot, and it's not because I'm a lawyer, it helped.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Right. That's my focus. It, it is to put you on the spot, and this is for anybody listening at the highest levels all the way up to the top. If I sit down with you, general, if I sit down with you, director of any agency, and I say, guess what, how are you gonna, how are you gonna defend the Constitution? If I sit down and say, Hey, what, what are you gonna do when vertical two, section one, clause two is violated?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Well, if you don't know that, what about Article one, section four? If you don't, if you. Defend the base seven articles of the Constitution. Then how about we transition to some of the amendments? What are you gonna do when the 10th Amendment is violated? Sam, what about the 12th Amendment? If you don't know what the 10th Amendment is, well if you don't know what the [00:09:00] 12th Amendment is, how about we proceed onto the 25th Amendment section four?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: What do you think most people in our entire government are gonna. When I sit them down one by one and ask them, what are you gonna do when those provisions of the constitution are violated? What do you think? No clue. Which begs the question, if you have no clue what you're defending, how are you gonna be able to defend it?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: That is exactly my point, and I'm putting everybody on the spot. So let's back up. How do we start to fix that? Cause you know, I like to identify everybody can identify a problem. I think this is the foundational problem to everything to include what's happened to you. Briefing stems from the system, not knowing the rule book that we're supposed to play by, and the few of us that do know the rule book that call out, call people out that don't know it and that violate it, but [00:10:00] they're in a position of discretionary authority.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Arguably speaking. We are here to educate them so, If you go to a website, I think it's called CPMs, OD Mil, if I'm not mistaken, and that is a website that essentially showcases that every new person onboarding within our, within the Department of Defense is required to do cons, citizenship, and Constitution Day.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: I don't remember anybody having to do that under N D A A, I believe 2005 or whatnot. Everyone's supposed to do it. Guess what? They, they make mandatory, the self, what was it, mutilation training recently. They just from promulgating, Hey, everybody has to go through the mutilation advocacy training, right?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: It is great. It's so great for the force [00:11:00] to mutilate yourself.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Yeah. It's, it's a horrible thing. I, I had, I was supposed to click through it. Yeah. I, I had to click through it the other day. Maybe a month. It's probably been more than the other day, but it was a couple months ago. They sent it to me and said, did you do the training?

Dr Sam Sigoloff: I clicked through it. I didn't do any training cuz I, it's medically not safe. It goes against my religious beliefs. It goes against my

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: You did do well. No, I don't wanna get. It sounds like you did all of the training according to how they wanted you to do it. Right? I got it. Yep. That's what I heard you just say.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Yep, that's what I just heard you say. That's what I heard you say, Sam. Okay, so don't comment on this portion here, please. . With all due respect, now, how is it good for the forest to basically say, Hey guys, I want you to take, I wanna take away all of your time from your primary function. Being able to each individually support and defend the Constitution enemies, foreign and domestic.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: I also wanna divert your [00:12:00] attention from that role, from fighting and winning the nation's wars. Continue to divert from that and say, you know what? Because possibly the, and I'm, I'm arguing at the highest levels here based on these reports that have come out that beyond show, beyond a reasonable doubt.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: There are certain individuals in our system that appear to be captured by a foreign entity particularly, you know, including family members. And so it's almost as though these policies are divert and distract to weaken our national security apparatus. Now, I've been in it for a quarter of a century up until August of 30th, and so now I can speak freely and see the, the progression as though not only are they promoting.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Mutilation. They're promoting the mutilation of our constitutional norms, and that is unacceptable, absolutely unacceptable. One of the reasons why I said, you know what? I'll be in a better position, not in the system that is promulgating the [00:13:00] demise of our national security. Step out, call it out, and then be a peer.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: If not, I would say at this point, I am now superior to our senior leaders as a private citizen. And they're gonna do the will of the people and not the will of what Violating the Constitution. So going back to the Constitution,

Dr Sam Sigoloff: I, I do wanna say that this is the, this year, I believe it's the first year I ever remember doing Cons, constitution Day training. And I've been in the Army for 10 years now, and this is the first time I remember ever doing it. I was shocked. I was, I was surprised. I was very happy. I was, you know, a little skeptical because of you know, who's putting this on?

Dr Sam Sigoloff: What are they really teaching? The Constitution says things like, it's a living document, which

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: over the, yeah, imagine over the course of 25 years instead of going through human mutilation training. Things that are not related to [00:14:00] protecting the, you know, the American public providing for the common defense.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: That's a constitutional requirement of the national government to provide for the common defense through its department, right? Well, but instead all these other things I think we'd be in a much better position cuz then we would have a baseline understanding of what our core values are. I don't care where you're coming in from.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: You come. You do the, the training. You, you take the oath, you learn where the oaths from, right? Title five, section 3, 3, 3, 1. And then you go beyond that and you actually learn about what the constitutional construct is, and you're there to, your oath is to defend it. So you first have to learn it and know it.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: And once you learn it and know it, then you can be educated and trained on what the threats. Foreign, right? Foreign are the threats that are first and foremost, and then as a backstop [00:15:00] domestic, and then you have to figure out what those threats are and then how to train yourself to be better equipped to be able to confront those threats.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Okay. And because our constitutional system is set up so that the Department of Defense is focused on foreign threats and then.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Domestic actors, like, I'm gonna be careful on your show, how I'm gonna frame this cause I don't wanna get you in trouble. Domestic actors within our Article two branch of government, such as our Department of Justice and the subordinate entities therein, as well as the Department of Homeland Security and the.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Entities subordinate to that focus on our domestic, which they still have yet to define what a domestic threat is so that it can be then countered. Right. That's like a legal distinction and nuance. Right. But speaking on the Department of Defense role, like you go in like, okay, if these are the threats that are listed, Under the constitutional authority as [00:16:00] laid out, and then you go down the list like what is required for me to counter that threat?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Okay, maybe I'll learn the language, the culture, then look at their, their ability to threaten our security. And then you go through that from the strategic level, operational planners. Then go ahead and provide that, the guidance to the tactical level operators to then execute on the those objectives.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Ends ways means, right, for those that are gone through that, that training. However, our leaders, I used that loosely in quotes because our, I argue that our institutions failed us in the last quad electoral process. I wanna make sure I'm using. Constitutional language here and staying away from any of the triggering words.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Right? So, absolutely. And so [00:17:00] these are just blatantly without any reservation with purpose of evasion. Our constitutional principles and norms and we can go into detail if you want, on what those are.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Well, yeah, I mean, last night I, I watched and it came out a couple days ago and encouraged everyone to watch it cuz it was so good I didn't get to finish it cuz it was getting kind of late.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: But Glenn Beck did this like a two hour special on, on just this, people violating the constitutional, their constitutional rights. So one of the stories was like Amazon working with the F B I to get this guy they, they took all of his assets through civil asset forfeiture, everything, his bank accounts, his wife's bank accounts, just so that Amazon could, it, it seemed as if they only did it to Amazon to get out of a hundred million dollar contract they had with this man because if.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Committed a [00:18:00] felony, then that breaks the contract and Amazon's not on the hook.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Actually, you know what, if I may, yeah, if I may, Sam, can we go through, like, I'm gonna give examples of constitutional violations that I've, I've observed over the last couple years or so, or maybe six, and then we'll, as we go through it, I'm gonna match it with the provisions of the Constitution.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So we essentially use this class as well, going through the seminar articles and the 27 amendment. To our constitution. I'm not gonna go through all of them.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Yeah. I think it's wonderful because that way we can help teach people like, yeah, you swear to defend, but what, what did you swear to defend?

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Let's you know, a constitutional corner, if you will.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Yeah, exactly. You gotta know it to then be able to defend it. If you know what the rules are and you're like, oh wait, I saw so-and-so do the same thing, and then you can let me know so that we can expose some light. Shine that flood light. Know that little magnifying glass [00:19:00] on the ant, kinda line it up.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Sunlight is the best disinfectant,

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: peacefully and patriotically, of course, . So section four, and stop me if you don't want me to talk about these things. Yeah, keep going please. Okay. Article one is just the foundational principles of what the legislative brand. Ok. Oh, lemme back up. Foundational principles.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: The state legislatures went to the Constitution as it was written in September 17th, 1787. It was ratified by the ninth of 13 states, making it the three quarters required vote under the ratification process to our constitution, where I think New Hampshire conducted that final vote was the state legislatures of 13 states that allowed for the Constitution to be created.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Okay. If three quarters of the states legislatures decide to amend [00:20:00] or publish and nullify that same constitution, so the same authority that created is the same authority that can nullify. Okay. Not the Supreme Court, right? No one else. So article one, the the legislators created the Constitution and granted certain rights.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Ability for a federal government to exist and allow that federal government to do something, and the federal government that allows the states to do something. It's the states that allow the federal government to exist. States don't want it to exist. They collectively, three quarters say, you know what?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: We're pulling back. There's another argument to be made that if three quarters of the state legislatures, if it falls below, Where 25% plus one of the state legislatures, meaning 13 states, [00:21:00] if I'm not mistaken, if 13 states legislatures decide, you know what? We don't want the fa. We don't wanna be a part of this, this thing, call the United States Scholars out there that have argued that because of the 75% or three quarter threshold has been pierced beneath.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Then also possibly the federal government is not in existence and I'm not ad I'm just peacefully and patriotically advocating legal analysis here. Okay. Via the First amendment for the haters out there. Yeah. Yeah. So that's it. There you go. Now. Understanding that as a foundational principle, if the states allowed the federal government to do something, it's in the Constitution.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: And then also if the states allowed in the Constitution certain restrictions on themselves. That's in [00:22:00] the Constitution. It's not specifically written as something that the states allow the federal government to do, nor Barr themselves from doing specifically in that federal document as the US Constitution.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: That means the states themselves have all the power. That's our 10th amendment, so let's go through it. Seven Article 27 Amendments Critical. One Legislative. Section four. I keenly observed that under Article one, section four, and I, I don't know if you wanna bring this stuff up, whatever. I dunno if you can screen share if you want, but it basically talks about elections to be done, time, place, and manner as stipulated, respective state.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: The episode has been paused and some of it has been. To hear the entire episode, please go to my Patreon account and subscribe for as little [00:23:00] as $1 a month to hear the entire episode.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Right, right. Exactly. Education. Education. So that's the Fifth Amendment. Let's go into. Let's see here. We talked about the first, third, fourth, fourth amendment violation. Carter Page, his fourth amendment, unreasonable Turkey seizure by the fi unlawfully, right? Investigation. After investigation, we had different entities and a special council.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: We had another special council. Basically showed that the obtaining of that Pfizer warrant was done. I'm gonna call what it [00:24:00] is. It was totally fourth Amendment violation, right? So we have to know and observe and identify that to make sure that those actors that violated it, they feel the First Amendment pressure, they are committing transgressions wrong.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Sixth, seventh, eight. Get into that trial stuff. Ninth, 10th. 10th Amendment. Let's review that. 10th. Yeah.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 10th amendment. Done. So with the 10th Amendment, things that are not in the Constitution, well, what's in the Constitution needs to be looked at.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: If the states allowed it for the federal government to do, and it's in the Constitution, it's fine. Those authorities, if it's not in the Constitution and directly not prohibited to the states, those powers and authorities remain in the states. [00:25:00] Taking the 10th Amendment, coupled with our Article two, section one, clause two, which is the state legislatures are the ones that decide and allocate those electors or president.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: When those states see, based on the report that was just published two days ago, the Chinese Communist Party's ambassador to the United States is currently squatting in the White House, and anybody pointed subordinate to that person

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: is basically, Pointed under those auspices and is promulgating policies to the benefit of a foreign threat. Now we start to get into a constitutional crisis and the constitutional crisis can be remedied. There are three ways to remedy that. There's a 25th [00:26:00] amendment removal, right, but here's the problem.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: That 25th amendment removal does not remedy the person that replace. That person because that person that takes over has been selected by the original problem. Okay, vice president, right next we have, it's one method. Another method is called impeachment, right? Impeach in the house. Convict convicting the Senate.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: That is, that is a method mechanism, and we, we shall see how that plays out starting January. I think the third method is the most appropriate under these current circumstances. If you agree with me that the 2020 election was these states conducted their election outside of their election law, which the former failed Vice President agrees with that statement, and he's on record saying that, then [00:27:00] that triggers that Article two, section one, clause two, constitutional violation, thus nullify.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: The electors that were transmitted from the states that actually violated the constitution, and they now need to call back their electors under that construct. Bring them back, oh, I don't know. Arizona, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Pennsylvania in New New Hampshire, and then the unit camera. The way Nebraska's, the only state that has the unicameral body, they're called, I believe, call one of their electors, and that will be more than the 37 electoral vote necessary to correct the record of what happened in 2020.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: And then that would trigger the 12th Amendment, which provides for a contingent election framework in the US House of Representatives. What do they vote? [00:28:00] One state, one vote for who they would vote for out of the pool of candidates remaining that are not disqualified.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: And then you'll see how that plays out possibly in January. And then on the US Senate. You would have a vote for vice president, one person, one vote, to then determine who that vice president would be, unless a succession triggering event. So you have, I'll close with this. The succession triggering event is if you don't have a president and you don't have a vice.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: The speaker of the house becomes president, right? Or a succession and the President pro Tempur becomes the vice president. It'll be interesting to see who the speaker of the house is about to be and the Senate Pro Tempur is about to be. [00:29:00] So that's really it. And the constitutional framework, knowing and understanding it, you can educate others.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So that we collectively as a society, we, the people and our institutions are within the framework of our cons.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Thank you, Ivan. This has been very educational very helpful and I would love to have you back when you have time. This I, I'd like to get like a regular spot with you, maybe once a month or so.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: And maybe I can get some questions from my Patreon supporters.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Yeah, absolutely. And if I can I put a plug in for like, if you want more details. I have done articles and I, I trickle out articles. It's just ivan Raklin.com that go into way more detail of what I just talked about with the references and the citations.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So you can literally take a look and in fact, in law, check everything I'm talking about so that you just don't take my word for it.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Right. We should never take anyone's word for it. We should. That's part of that refining fire. You know, you're, you're held to a high [00:30:00] standard because you're always under investigations, unfortunately.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: But also, The people that subscribe to your substack they hold you to a high standard too, cuz you have to make sure what you're putting out is as accurate as it can be at the time that you published it. Tell the truth or at least don't lie. You know? We don't always know what, what the truth is, but we know what the lie is.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: It's the thing that makes us feel weak

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: to motivate others. My philosophy and life is, there's two options. I'm either gonna. Or I'm not gonna lose. Okay. I like it. Not losing means you just don't stop. You just keep going. .

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Right. You haven't lost if you haven't stopped.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Exactly.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Well, thank you. I'd love to, to maybe schedule another time with you, maybe in a month or so.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Maybe I can put out some feelers for questions that we might want to ask you if, if that's all right. Yep. I can get those to you before. Yeah. This has been amazing cuz Yeah, I think a constitutional corner where we, we talk about these constitutional issues on a semi-regular basis is, is [00:31:00] very important because what are we defending?

Dr Sam Sigoloff: What are we, what do we swear to?

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: Absolutely. And it cr it brings it into, you know, cause a lot of people like, ah, arcane document, how does it applied to today? But bringing in the rules and then applying it to today's reality, I think that's where people will gain more interest and appreciation. It's, it's a brilliant document.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: It, it's, it's phenomenal how it was put together. The checks and balances, they're there. If, if we just basically collectively abi abided by it, we wouldn't have a lot of these issues that have occurred in all these, this foreign. Impact on our constitutional system wouldn't be happening as it's happening the last couple years especially.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Right. There's so many people that that think that, yeah, there's so many people that think that the Constitution is not good, but no, it's great. We're not following it. That's, that's what's not good cause we're not following the laws as they're written.

ret LTC Ivan Raklin: So yeah. Thank you brother.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: Well, thank you brother. I appreciate it.

Dr Sam Sigoloff: I'm glad to have
