Welcome to The Electric Current Rundown podcast episode number 67.

And I’m your host, Phil Defiance, and I’ll always say I’m here to encourage this spread of intriguing knowledge that can spark fires in the minds of those seeking inspiration and truly improving the world.

And what I’m going to be talking about in this episode includes a continuation of where I left off on the last episode on the topic of how to clean your vinyl records because they’re filthy.

And then I’m going to talk about an attack on food.

Recent large amounts of food recalls, shutdown of farms, food plants, being blown up in 2023 and other related thoughts.

And then I’m going to be talking about the right to repair movement is growing as winds stack up.

So to continue on where I left off on the topic of how to clean your vinyl records because they’re filthy.

Well, like on the last episode, I was talking about why a lot of people actually love vinyl even till this day.

I mean, it’s like 30, 40 years since, I mean, a long time anyway, 30 years since the CD came out and so much other technologies have come out since then.

But people still are about their vinyl.

People like vinyl.

I mean, audiophiles especially, right?

It’s like a decent amount of people.

But, okay, but now I’m going to talk about how to clean them because it’s so important for like reasons that I mentioned in the last episode.

And, well, there’s a few things out there, right?

I mean, if you go to Amazon, if you look for ways to clean your records, I mean, if you look for products that can help, yeah, you’re going to find a bunch of product listings of the variety, like a cleaning cloth and some kind of liquid that helps clean them.

But it turns out that that kind of stuff is basically a scam.

It’s a rip-off.

Don’t buy that.

If you want to clean your records, then, I mean, yeah, sure, you can do that, but it’s just not going to work so well because the thing is that, like, you’re just basically ramming the dust into the record or it’s not really going to get out of there.

You’re just, like, moving it around.

You’re not really getting the dirt out of there.

And that’s not what you want, obviously.

I mean, you’re trying to clean it.

You’re trying to make it proper.

That’s not proper.

But, okay, so if you really want proper cleaning, well, there’s a couple real options, and one of them is really expensive, and the other one is not that expensive, but it’s pretty hard to do.

It’s like a makeshift type of thing.

But you can do it that way, too.

I mean, if you want to put in that kind of effort.

And really what it comes down to is, well, what are those two things?

One of them is, um, like, an ultrasonic frequency cleaner device.

And it’s like $420 US dollars.

And I’m in Canada, so here that would be like, something around $700 or something like $650.

That’s a lot of money.

And if you’re in America, obviously, $420 is a lot of money.

And odds are that Articles got those prices wrong anyway.

Because the guy was probably referencing something from his memory, I swear.

I recall looking into it, and yeah, it wasn’t exactly $420.

I think it was slightly more.

But regardless, even $420 is a big price.

But I mean, that’s the best way.

Because if you want to throw down that kind of money for cleaning your records, it’s actually worth it because it’s a lot easier than the other way, which involves a vacuum cleaner and some specific things related to it, so that you can actually clean it out.

I mean, clean it out by sucking it out, sucking the dirt out.

It’s pretty advanced and pretty hard to do.

I mean, not just to set it up, but also to actually go through with it.

I mean, it’s just a hard process, but either way, okay.

So, I’m going to continue on that topic.

I mean, finish it off, really, and then switch topics after this quick break.

So, on this quick break, I’m going to say, plain bold clothing, live life to the fullest.

What happened the last time you went to a party?

Well, on a great adventure, you’ll be the life of the party with clothing like our authentic plain goose items.

You’ll get exuberant designs you’ll need.

We usually have some sales, so you can save money, too.

Be like a goose on a plane on a flight to a great adventure.

Go to plainbold.com today.

That’s plain, like airplane, plainbold.com.

And plain goose is just the name of the clothing label.

I even provided a description as to why I gave it that name.

So go to the website and you’ll see.

And either way, I mean, go to the website and buy some stuff.

Help my operation.

Yeah, I mean, if not today or not soon, then sometime in a few weeks from now.

But either way, okay, to finish off on the topic of how to clean your vinyl records because they’re filthy.

So that harder way is, yeah, I mean, pretty hard to do.

But if you wanna put in the effort, then why not?

I mean, if you don’t wanna spend that 420 bucks or more, then you might as well do it the hard way.

But, I mean, 420 is also hard.

That’s a lot of money.

You work hard for that money.

So, I mean, but the thing is that a lot of people that are into vinyl are audio enthusiasts.

So they are already spending a decent amount of money on getting the records, the record players, like all this type of stuff costs money.

So, I mean, if you’re already putting in that kind of investment, then why not give a little bit more with $420 or a little bit more, or putting in the effort with all that kind of hard kind of stuff.

But either way, I’m going to post a link to the article where I found this information out.

So you can go ahead and look into it if you’re interested when it comes to the hard way to do it, or even that product right there that was referencing the Ultrasonic Cleaner, which is the easy way, but not so easy when it comes to money.

And regardless, I mean, another thing that you can do to keep your records clean is like plastic containers, like to put your whole record case into, as well as you can get record holders that are inside of the record cases, because sometimes you may misplace them or damage them or lose them.

So, you might as well have some extras.

That definitely will help and that will, I mean, those kinds of things will also improve your ability to keep your records clean.

So, might as well do those things too.

But either way, I posted the link to that article in the description of this episode right here.

So, you can go ahead and look more into it if you want to.

But yes, so now I’m going to switch topics on to an attack on food.

Recent large amounts of food recalls, shutdown of farms, food plants being blown up in 2023, and some related thoughts.

Yeah, so, I mean, I’ve talked about large amounts of food recalls a couple times, especially one of my earliest episodes.

I really focused on that topic, but it’s also connected to these other topics.

So I had to bring that topic back up.

I mean, last year, they really were doing a humongous amount of food recalls.

It was insane.

And that’s why I talked about it, like as a main focus topic.

And I mean, and there’s things like shutdown of farms.

I mean, that’s happening all over the world, including here in North America.

But like, especially in Europe, it’s like even worse.

That’s what I’ve heard.

And it’s a matter of fact.

And it’s craziness.

Like I mean, food is important.

You got to eat to live.

I mean, if you’re not eating, then you’re going to die of starvation.

But not only that, I mean, you don’t just got to die.

There’s also like malnourishment.

I mean, if you’re not eating right, then you’re going to be malnourished or you’re going to be skinny.

Like there’s all sorts of health issues related to not eating right.

So, I mean, it’s all connected to like, like when it comes to shutting down farms, their reasoning is like things related to climate change.

Like they’re saying like nitrogen.

I mean, especially in Europe, nitrogen is bad for the earth, which is all BS.

I mean, nitrogen is not bad at all.

So it’s craziness that they’re actually shutting down farms related to nitrogen in certain places.

And then there’s like other factors.

And then there’s, I mean, talking about farms, they even talk about how cows fart.

And they’re fart.

They’re farts.

I have to laugh on that because fart.

Okay, whatever.

The point is though, that they’re saying that methane gas is bad for the earth, which is ridiculous too.

I mean, if you look into it, methane gas is not bad for the earth.

It’s just more BS.

And climate change too.

That’s more BS.

That’s the worst BS.

Climate change is not even a problem at all.

They’re making…

I mean, it’s all connected to other factors.

I’m going to continue on, though, on the topic after this quick break.

So on this quick break, I’m going to say picture listening to crap sounding music.

You don’t need none of that.

Picture for unforgettable parties with some best music.

That’s exactly what you need.

Also, you need a proper design shirt to express your love of music.

So get that kind of good quality shirts, because right now, that’s mainly what I’m selling.

At plainbold.com.

That’s plain, like airplane, plainbold.com.

And in the future, I’m going to also expand to other things other than shirts.

And yeah, of course, music is going to be one of the main focuses.

But either way, so to continue on, on that topic about food.

Yeah, another thing other than what I just said is that there’s people like John Kerry, the guy that previously ran for president in 2004 and also worked as a high-ranking official in Obama’s administration as well as Biden’s administration.

He’s even recently said crazy things like, to save the earth, we need to shut down farms.

But then he’s also in the same speech, he literally said, because climate change is going to shut down farms, like climate change is going to starve people.

But then at the same time, he’s talking about how we need to shut down farms.

Well, if we’re shutting down farms, then people are going to starve.

So, the logic is completely ridiculous, and all of it is connected to climate change, I mean that’s really what it comes down to, when it comes to shutting down farms, and that’s just absurd.

And really, there’s then, I mean, on top of that, then there is how, I mean the fact how food plants were being blown up in the year 2023, just a couple of years ago.

I mean, like, crazy events were occurring then, like planes flying into huge food processing plants, and it even happened a little bit in 2024, but it was really big, big things going on when it comes to that in 2023, like all sorts of big facilities.

It’s like craziness.

I couldn’t believe it when it was happening, and like suspicious fires that just like were happening, and it was just like happening in like dozens of different food plants, and huge ones especially.

They were the biggest ones being targeted, and it’s just like craziness.

So all these things are connected.

I mean, and so like, I mean, it’s highly suspicious that those food plants were getting on fire, and planes landing to them.

It just makes you wonder, like who are the people that are doing this?

Like it just makes you think like it must have been a concerted effort.

I mean, talking about fire, because that’s really the main means that it was done with.

It even reminds me of the LA fires that happened recently, I mean, if you’ve been watching my show, then you could recall that I talked about that a few episodes back, or if you’re new to my show, then you can go ahead and look into that episode a few episodes back.

But either way, I mean, it just reminds me of that.

It just feels like, I mean, something’s wrong with those food fires.

I mean, food plant fires that were happening that year.

And it’s all connected to everything else I was talking about.

Like I was just referencing with the food recalls, the shutdown of farms and food plants.

Yeah, all that.

All of it is connected.

And I mean, it’s absurd too that when it comes to the shutdown of farms, they are saying like, it’s about climate change.

But really, I mean, that’s another thing.

Climate change is not about saving the earth.

It’s about you dying.

Yeah, you’re the carbon that they want to erase.

Yeah, that’s what it comes down to.

You’re a carbon life form.

They want you to die.

That’s what’s really going on.

It’s a satanic system.

It’s all connected to evil.

They want you to die to save the earth.

And that’s what’s really happening.

I mean, all these things are connected.

I mean, I think it’s all done by the same people.

People that are trying to run this world into the ground, that’s why they’re running it to lords.

Because they’re worshiping the devil.

That’s what it really comes down to.

And climate change is a big scam, also brought to you from the devil.

And it’s actually funny that I’m talking about this especially because I’m recording this a couple days after Easter happened.

But okay, so now I’m going to switch topics to finish off the episode on my last topic of The Right to Repair Movement is Growing as Winds Stack Up.

And that’s about the fact that like up till like about 15 years ago, in the United States, especially big corporations have been trying to make it really hard to repair items like they tried to get like they tried to make it just pure law to make it so that it’s impossible to repair certain things like, for example, tractors, but other things too.

And like to repair them without a repairman, a certified repairman representing the company.

And there’s other things too, like, for example, one of the things that was referenced in the article was like the McFlurry Machines at McDonald’s.

And that’s actually funny because a lot of people wonder why, like, whenever they go to McDonald’s, the McFlurry Machines don’t work.

It’s like craziness.

Because McFlurries are popular, I mean, I must admit, they are tasty.

But okay, I mean, that’s what it’s really connected to, actually.

The company that may
