Exclusive Tell-All: The President of Argentina meeting Bill at the Pink Palace
Hello, earthlings. I'm Bill Gentry and I'm here in Cambodia with my co-host today. Julia Haw. Hello everyone. How are you doing? She is becoming quite proficient at Kama and I'm starting to study Kama myself. It's here in Cambodia that we have our project that, we're trying to, more awareness around the world for, it's the colors of Cambodia Art School.
Anyhow, we're gonna talk about a couple particular topics today. cool. Just talk about it. Um, okay, so what I'm really interested in is, I remember you mentioning a story when you went to Buenos s and I cannot stop thinking about the story because it's so, it's just you and it's ridiculous. So can we, it's, it's forced up.
Bill. Bill, can we talk about that because Yes. Yeah. I wanna see the footage as well, and you guys will know what we're talking about. What did I, were you there filming me? No, but 30 years ago, I needed to see these photos. Okay. This is a crazy thing that happened to be completely unexpected., just one of the things that kind of.
Happens to earth, to Bill as he travels around the world. And I was on a business trip. I was working for the family business and this is, early to mid 1990s. I was on a business trip down to Sari's, Argentina. And I think, as I've said in some of the other podcasts, I was an international salesman.
I think I got the opportunity to go all over the world. And we didn't do any business at that time in Argentina. So, we had some distributors down there contacting us saying, Hey, why don't you come on down here? Let's talk about maybe a relationship. Okay, so I'm gonna go to Argentina. Buenos the big city, one of the biggest cities in the world.
World. Famous nightlife. Yeah. Didn't you say the clubs were open till like 4:00 AM or something like that? I think some of them open at four. Oh my God, no, I, at that time, the BU's nightclub scene was one of the most famous in the world. And how old were you at this time? Like I was probably late thirties.
I. So almost probably wouldn't be able to get into the nightclubs. Too old of a geezer. And I tell you what, I, the one night I had to go out clubbing was the night I flew, took the 12 hour flight down from America. But anyhow, so I'm going to Buenos, I'm planning a trip for a few weeks and at the same time I'm playing, starting to play polo on horses, not water polo.
I'm starting to play polo, and it just so happens that the world's most famous place for breeding and grooming and developing polo players is in Argentina. Okay. So anyhow, I'm starting to play polo probably by far and pretty much always was the worst player on our hillbilly team in Missouri. And I also need footage of that.
So that was before there were really cameras. So I'm telling the people that I'm going down to Argentina. Hey, that's cool. go buy a saddle, et cetera, et cetera. Well, the wives of one of the guys that I'm playing polo with was from Argentina, and she said, oh my God, you've got into Buari.
You have to see my friend Carla. Carla. Oh, she will show you the town. She's such a wonderful person. Oh, this is so exciting. Carla will love you. She'll take you out. You can go night clubbing, et cetera, et cetera. So, okay, cool. I'm gonna land in bu naris. I'm there for two nights, and I'm gonna be able to see the city with a local tour guide and, and attractive accompaniment.
All right. I got my trip planned. I landed at the airport in OSAs I thought would probably come to beat me. So I land at the airport and it turns out that when I call Carla from the payphone, cuz this is back more in the payphone, oh my God. She says Be be like, cannot come. I cannot come to pick you up.
I had a very busy night. I forgot to tell you this. You're gonna have to come and join me where I am working. And so just catch a taxi there in the air. Court it, it, it is kind of rush hour, but the traffic will be going out and you'll be coming into town. It shouldn't be so well, so hard to get there.
So just tell the taxi driver that you're gonna go to the Palacio Rose, which is the Pink Pals in Spanish. Love it. Palacio Rosa. And it's nighttime that I'm assuming. No, it's just, it's, it's just, no, it's probably around four 30. I think it was winter for us in America, so it was summer down there. I land, call her.
All right, I've got to catch my own taxi and go down to the Pink Palace. Well, that sounds like a kind of an interesting place to mean, I didn't really know what the Pink Palace was at that time. Maybe it was a mall. Yeah. Sounds like a nightclub. , it could have been. Could have been just a mall.
I go down to the pink Palace. It didn't take that long, maybe 45 minutes if my memory's correct. My gosh. It's where the president of Argentina lives, president Menem was the president at that time. Oh, wow. Oh, okay. So I, well, I don't know why she hadn't told me why she's down there. I somehow contacted her through some guys at the gate.
There's a lot of people starting to gather though, around the Pink Palace. And so, Carla comes down to meet me and she gives me a pass. She said, Beal, I work here. I'm a reporter. My job for the newspaper I work for is to just cover whatever happens to the president. Oh, wow. So she worked closely with him.
Then she was. Kind of, well, she, and probably around 35 other reporters, have this, this staff room, like on the third floor where they have all of their computer stations set up. This was back in the days where everybody had a desktop. She was by far not the only one. So I went up there and I still had my luggage.
I put all my stuff into her., well, what, what were you wearing? , this is that when, when you told me the story, I just couldn't imagine like you got off the plane, I was wearing that clown outfit that I wear. No, totally, totally. Probably jeans. No, I mean, I, I wasn't, I wasn't landing having to go straight to, I'm assuming that everyone is dressed up, , at this event or this place.
Right now, car Palace Carla was not, I mean, there's, well, what it turns out is there's those, the cameras are, are facing, those, the camera is, is directed at, and there are those on the other side of the camera who don't. Many times, like in Hollywood tv, they don't care what they look like, cuz they're never, they're never seen.
Yeah. And then, Carla, there's. Was gonna tell me what all this is about. Why are there people circling around and starting to enter the Pink Palace? And here I am. I've been in Argentina for 90 minutes. I'm already at the home of the President Nim, the president of Argentina. Okay. So really what was going on is that a lot of people were coming to the Pink Palace to watch President Menem Tango.
Because it's so famous there and they invited me cuz they heard I was such a good dancer. Oh yeah. You were taking those tango lessons. I remember that. I teach tango. Yeah. I used to teach tango and it takes two, right? So it takes two to tango. Okay. No., so yeah, here I am. I'm in the recorders, the newsroom at the Pink Palace in the mid nineties, and Carlos says, What, what is happening tonight, which is a very big event.
It's the changing of the guards, and this is the time, the opportunity that each year the president of Argentina gives a state of the country address on the military situation that they're faced with. How long had he been a president? He was president for around 10 years, and I think he was about halfway into his tenure.
He was pretty seasoned. Yeah. Very well respected. Yeah. Cool. and he was back in those days, the economy in Argentina, which was, was, which was imploding, and there were the peroneus what was going on in Argentina was actually occasionally global news. You don't hear much about what's going on down there now, but, so anyhow, we're gonna, we're at the.
The changing of the guards at night. And so what Carla tells me is that he's gonna give a speech, there's gonna be some bleachers that are gonna be set up. They're actually being set up as we're talking, where the generals, the colonels, the admirals, all of the high officials in the military are gonna be basically what amendment is addressing along with the news media and those who might watch the, this address on TV was the Palace actually pink, the palace was pink.
And, and the palace, oh my god. This palace was, Pia was that huge? It was huge, grand, very Greco Roman. Everything was painted pink. The pillars that were holding up the, the, the porches and surrounding the building, it looked very much, if not even more impressive. What an entrance. The American White House.
Off the planes, the Play Shield Palace. I'm already hanging, hanging now. I haven't become tight yet with men, but we're, I'm already hanging at the president's palace. I've been in the country for two hours. Love it. Love it. But that's just the beginning. So Carlos says, I gotta leave you, bill. There's a lot going on.
I'll meet you back here in the newsroom after the speech. So you just, , make yourself at home, wander around. You have to press pass. Nobody's gonna bother you. And the luggage, you, the luggage is, is in, in the newsroom. She said, don't worry about it, it's safe. So she saw how crummy my luggage looked, so she said, nobody's gonna bother trying to break into that no Louis Baton.
Alright. Now the hat, she leaves me, I start to just kind of wander around. You're just the pan, I'm just wandering around. Now were there many other foreigners at this time? Well, it, it, this, in this case, I'm gonna say foreigners, of the, let's say the elites. Most Argentine people are of Italian descent, is what I was told.
So I would say I look just like everybody else. There wasn't, it wasn't like different, it wasn't waiting in Cambodia where you're the, the only Marine in the room. I look like just every other, every other white gringo dude there at the palace. So I, I start to see that, yeah, there really is a large gathering of people starting to accumulate out.
On this, this, this kind of patio that is covered by a roof and some columns, but I didn't really know what was gonna happen where, so I'm just kind of wandering here and there. And it, probably be another 30 or 40 minutes and there's marble everywhere. It's grand, there's flowers, there's, there's military people all over.
Did you manage to get yourself a drink? Are you easing in no. I was not. I didn't find where the wine bar was or anything. So you're just milling around? I'm, I am, I'm just strictly just kind of wandering around sort of in, in a space zone. And it was earth to bill , with three underlines.
It was kind of like, well, how did I, how did I arrive here and get into such a situation? Good. I only know one person in Argentina and she's already got me. The president's palace. So, at a certain point it becomes kind of clear. I'm, as I'm wondering about the event, the speech is gonna start soon, but I didn't know it was gonna start as soon as it actually did.
So we've got the generals over here and the admirals and we have, I'm gonna say somewhere close to a hundred cameras that are sort of. Pointing in my direction is I'm, I'm in the backside of this, this front courtyard. There's a lot of lights coming on. There's microphones. There's, there's kind of a stand here, podium, and the next thing , the applause art.
And this, this dude walks right past me. I could have touched him. He's dressed up very, very well in a, in a, in a suit black suit. He's walking past and I'm like, crap, this is the guy, he's right here. I, well, I mean, And all the cameras are pointing at me, so I, I immediately kind of snuck back and hid behind one of the columns.
All right. There's a lot of columns and there's a lot of cameras, and there's a lot of people, and I'm like, I'm basically 10 feet right behind the president as he's giving his speech, hiding behind a column. All right. So I'm like, geez, if I, if I try to run and escape now with everybody looking in this direction, they're gonna probably think I'm some kind of a terrorist or whatever, and I'm gonna be tackled and handcuffed and, and shuffled off to the local dungeons.
I just stayed behind, my pink, calm. Wow. And , the speech is in Spanish. as much as I might say I'm fluent in Spanish, I don't. I don't think I really understood a word. And he talks and he's talking, as Carla said, he's gonna give an address, the changing of the column. And at this point, no one saw you.
You're just, as far as I know, no, nobody's acknowledged that., for Gump, me is hiding behind these cones. I just find that so hard to believe. Mal, it's, it's, it's his, it's as true because I feel like security now is so exceptionally insane. What do I mean? Like, well, I had the pass, remember? Okay. I have, it's like you had a passer on your neck.
I have the press pass. So the speech is going on and ons, Carla told me, he's talking about what's going on. , with the, if there's any border disputes or if there's any problems with, with the boats and fisheries and encroachment in their waters, whatever, whatever they talk about.
Whatever, , an Argentine president talks about in regards to military issues, he's, he's given it and, and I'll mention changing of the guards means that after that night, All of the guards who were un stationed there at the Pink Palace would switch over. And I think it was kind of an, an elite and a desirable post to be posted at the Pink Palace, the zone of Peloso.
So, the president's giving a speech and I'm getting kind of bored cuz this thing is going on and on and, and I'm like, so occasionally I would sort of, Stick my head in. Oh my god. Suit my head around. I'm sorry, bill, but you don't blend in, man. Oh, no. So I should have worn pink that night. I should have worn my pink suit.
Oh. So every five minutes or something, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna poke my head around and, and nobody's doing anything. Nobody's probably even noticing me because the lights to a certain extent. Are very hyper-focused. , these spotlights on the president, we're in his spread speech. So the speech is going on and, and there's lots of applause.
And, and for the most part, the generals are all like 85 years old. They're like, look like wooden statues , stone-faced and carved and, and expressionless. It sounds honestly very boring, dude. Well, it was exciting in the beginning, but I was in a very precarious situation because if I ran for it, like I said, then I would be the focus.
And I mean, that might've been, , the, the main center of the news that night is the, is the, yeah, the, is the Amer, the, the American, the cars there after Gentry in. All right, so speech finally comes to ACLU and there's applause and applaud and applause and, , I'm, I'm feeling greatly relieved.
I haven't been noticed, I haven't been found, I haven't been handcuffed. I, I've just maybe a half dozen times stuck my head around the, the, the, the big columns and speech is over, the, there's a flood on stage of congratulations and, and handshakes with, with minimum. And I kind of like, okay, that one's time for me to kind of escape.
Which I sort of did. I just kind of like, okay, I'm outta here. And so I sort of rush off and go back up to the newsroom and I wait for Carla. And it was a while before she came and she came in and, oh, bill, what did you think? Was it wonderful? Where were you? I didn't see you. I'm like, well, I was looking for you too, Carla, but I, I, I didn't see you either.
I mean, it was just a lot of light. And I don't think I told her. What I was doing or where I was, cuz I thought maybe I still might get in trouble. She said, okay, let me get my , let me finish up my little story. Gimme 20 minutes and we'll go into town and we'll have a wonderful beef dinner because Argentina's famous fort's beef.
Okay? And maybe if we, if, if you're up for it, we'll stay up and, and we will go to these. Four nightclubs, or famous nightclubs, which I was at that time. I think I was ready, I was ready to try that. But, as time went by and we went down to eat and I'd been on a 12 hour flight and I was kind of exhausted from thinking I was gonna maybe be spending the night in a jail in Buenos, Hey, we had our meal.
She took me to my hotel. I think I was staying at the Hyatt that night. And check in. It's about midnight. We didn't, we didn't do any nightclubs. Okay. And, I'm like, wow, what, what a day. , I'm What a day? Oh my God. I've flown all the way to a country I've never been to before. I visited the Pink Palace, the president.
And , what else? Beautiful. What, what else more can, can, can happen that would make this an even more exceptional day? What? Well, I go over and I turn on the tv. I turn on the TV, and I, and I'm not joking at all, click on their channels. I didn't even have to flick a channel. I turn it on and right there in front of me is the speaking.
And right behind him is, Bill sticking his, no way, sticking his head out right there on, on inter or not, but national news and I don't know if anybody, oh my God, had any idea or even noticed, but I certainly noticed that I was there right there with the president on tv. I've been in town. Six hours and I've already seen myself on TV with the president of Argentina.
So that's kind of an exceptional story. Please tell me that you managed to get put about, I way say shape and four, I imagine if I knew the right people town there. Now I, I, we could probably get some footage of that because it was, they probably retained. I'm sure they do. It's probably on file.
Are you still in touch with the car? No. No. I'm not in touch with Carla, nor the people on the polo team. But anyhow, that is such a wild entrance. It was a wild story. I've got one other little shorter story about some things that went on in Montreal when I first said the first office there for our company.
Woo. Wow. That was a long bio break., yeah, man, you jacks up on a copier. What? Woo. Hey, Julia, tell us who, who is Julia Hall? Who is Julia Hall? What are you doing here at Camp ocha? Oh, okay. Well a large part of that has to do with you and my connection with you. So I actually met Bill when he was on stage singing and playing guitar back in 2015.
Totally randomly, you were at some restaurant, I can't even remember where it was you called Graze Graze. It was my first time in Cambodia. And I was just here on the three day trip from Thailand with a wild fling that I had, if you will. And , that's when I met Bill and he was just like, yeah, I ran the sanji.
And I was just like, yeah, yeah. Cool. So we exchanged business cards as fate would have it and as serendipity would have it, which happens a lot of times that happens here in Cambodia. One of the many reasons why I love this place is that the next day I'm walking through town. Cuz at that time the gallery was located near the old market and I looked up and there's colors, so I had to walk in and, I don't know, the rest is kind of history because over the next year or so, bill and I stated contact and due to the state of affairs in the United States and a lot of negative things that were happening. I actually reached out to Bill and asked if I could volunteer for Colors of Cambodian volunteers for two or three months, and that was the right time when I was moving to New York City.
So Bill said something very pivotal that actually did change my life. He was like, well, there's a will, there's a way. And, I'll just never forget that. And I ended up coming here in 2017 to volunteer for three months, and that changed the course of my life. And I ended up living, or basically moving here years later after five trips.
Because I just couldn't get away from this place, ? And I knew I was in trouble because I was walking down the street one day during that early volunteer opportunity with my headphones on. And I just remember, I just had happiness coursing through my body. I was like, I had never felt happier. I was like Uh oh, because I had just moved to New York and I thought as an artist, , wanting to move to New York City since the age of seven, that that would just be it for me.
I finally made it to Brook Lab. I had been living in Sheba for nine years, and I was like, I made it. Finally, I'm gonna live and die in New York, man. He goes, this is it, ? And. And it just makes me feel so grateful, , for the idea of, of pivots in life and honoring your intuition and acknowledging these divine pivots that'll pop up.
not just stuffing it down and being like, oh, I'm just, I, I committed to living in New York and that's it. That's a reason New Yorkers like Sister Cities, aren't they, honestly, they do have similarities and you are kind of shook when I tell 'em that. One of the biggest similarities between New York and CM Re just to let the audience know.
The CIA Reap has an awesome international community here. So you've got South Africans, you've got French, you've got Australians, A lot of French, actually we had an amazing French dinner lesson. I think there's more French restaurants here than in Paris. Yeah, yeah. I remember crunching some waffles in Paris.
I'm like, oh yeah. But, yeah, you've got, you've got. New Zealanders, England, people from England. So with that being said, it's just like this very concentrated international community and I love that about it. But the differences are that they are better than New York are, it takes five minutes to get anywhere.
, you don't have to spend an hour commuting every day, minutes on bike, five minutes on bike, five minutes by, three minutes by Tuck, obviously toasting everybody took, took. Little carriage behind the motorcycle. Now they're, they're wonderful. I, I wanna make a plug for you. If you've got your own YouTube channel.
Yeah, yeah. Which is amazingly successful. Yeah. It's been doing really well. Ah, she's gonna be filming a TV show for, what's the name of that? Yeah. Well, I can't quite really say a TV show to be disclosed, but she's also a, she's made a huge difference in the education, art, education of our kids.
Made a big impact on them over the years and taught them some, some skill sets I don't have and some of our other teachers don't have. So I want to thank you here for the world. Those, those people back on earth. Thank you for what you've done. For the colors of Cambodia. Sometimes he's very talented, sometimes he's a New York artist.
I just love that I wanna keep the connection between New York and Cambodia and Yeah. And I think just kind of enclosing with who I am, like just I think it's just so important to honor here at tuition and. , honor those pivots in life, and that's why I'm here. And that's why you're here as a whole, right?
Yeah. And for any of you out there who are wondering which way to go with your future and your education to become an artist, it's the most practical thing you can do. Yeah. Maybe not financially. I don't necessarily think you can become an artist. I think that it's not really a choice. Okay. All right, Shawan, thank you again.
Julia Hall, I got one little laugh story, which is kind, it's not a long story, but it's about the first international sales office I set up and, and some of the interviewing processes and sort of a, a, a funny ending to the interviews, but I was for a while I kind of handled for our small family business.
Pretty much the entire world as the salesman outside of America or Europe. We had our own European gig going, we had an American gig and I was everywhere, everywhere else. And that included Canada. And I love Canada. Canada's a beautiful country. Is that funny? No, you're just like, I love Canada. Canada. Like Canada's awesome.
Yeah, it is. It's very diverse. Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Toronto, OT of Montreal, those were the cities I covered and we did a lot of business in Canada and, and we started to do a lot of business in Canada. So it became clear that I couldn't continue to really develop the territory cuz it was getting bigger and bigger.
I needed to go up and set up an office in Memorial, which is what we decided because, Much of our business was more in the Montreal area than let's say in Ottawa or Vancouver. All right, I'm gonna go to Montreal and I wonderfully decided to do it in the middle of winter. And, um, I'm gonna, and I got a fantastic idea, dude.
This is the old fashioned way. This is, this is like, 1989, 1990, you call people up on the phone, and you, I found a hard wire. Did you take a train up there or No, I flew up. I was living in Seville, California at the time. Oh gosh. It would've been a long train. Right. So I did one ad.
So we put stuff in the newspaper. We got responses. I went through all the CVS that came in resumes. And so what was the position you were hiring for? This was, this would've been the country manager. Oh, wow. Okay. Country manager for cannabis. So did you have people flying in then? Some people did fly in from Toronto.
Okay. it was mostly Toronto interviewees or, but for the most part, just gentlemen at that time, people were gentlemen back then in Montreal, quick come back. So I flew up there. I did my sales calls during the day. I did the interviewing over the process for a period of a week.
So I set up a, oh my God. I set up a booth that was basically my booth for five nights.
I think I did. Oh my God. I remember, so I, back in those days, you, you worked all day and you worked all night. And I was in my, in my probably late twenties, maybe hit 30 at that time. So I'm up in Montreal doing business calls during the week or during the day. And then at night I'm interviewing candidates, one, one interview per hour, three interviews per night.
15. That's not, how bad was the, oh, 15? Yeah, I think it was, it was around 15. Might have been 12, 13. But it was busy. I was busy and exhausted by the way. Wow. Each one of these gentlemen would come in and shake hands. I'm in the back booth. Come on back there. We'd talk about some social niceties and then I would, I'll try to throw some questions at them to really find out what their true character was.
And pet, I'll let one, I, I read some books on how to interview people. I mean, not that I had Yeah. Curious about what some of these questions were. Well, one of, one of the questions, , what's your favorite pet? I mean, they were like, why are you asking me that? , I was sure. And another one was, what, what would you do if a naked woman were to walk in the door?
Right. Are you kidding? You asked that, that was one of my questions. Whoa. And it would just, it would dry out some expressions, but I was really impressed or, , curious about the answers. Because most of them would come out and say, oh my God, I'd run up to her and give her my coat so she would be covered.
Okay., Okay. Wow. The gentleman of Quebec. Okay. Okay. So I'm interviewing these guys. Many of 'em are going to, let's just say, have a, , a, a name, , like Pierre, Jean Pierre, uh, very, very French. And I, and I used to call Al Montreal, the, the Paris with ami. Cause I've always found the Quebec laws to be very friendly people.
Parisians are not French people from France, but let's just say the Quebec laws I found very friendly. So as I'm interviewing all of these guys, one after another, we're having questions, responses. I'm taking notes, I'm gathering my opinions. But as I'm seeing each one of these, these men, I noticed that each one of them, every single one of them was missing in a very obvious place.
One tooth. Wow. If not more, possibly too cheap. And I didn't say anything. I didn't say anything. I was just like, wow. I mean, what is, there's, there's definite need for, I mean, oh man, there's dental care. There's, there should have been dental eighties now., but I mean, Americans are a little bit spoiled in respect to care, to dental care.
So strange day after day, it continues.. Every gentleman who comes in and, and is interviewed for the job is missing. One tooth, two teeth, three teeth. Sometimes it might be something right out front here. Here. Oh my God. It was, it was not like I had to, , look down the throat to see if Mr. Tooth.
So the last guy I interviewed was Wild. Huh. Turns out to be the one that we hired. and he, his name was Michelle and he stayed with us for probably, 8, 10, 12 years. I, I don't know exactly how long you stayed cuz I moved to Singapore, but, Michelle, he and I became quite close, pretty quick. , we're very, very comfortable and, and smooth flowing conversation.
He was a great conversationalist. And, and, and that was, that's a key thing about a good salesman is, is a good conversationalist and, and it's somebody easy to warm up to. But I also noticed that Michelle was not missing any teeth. And, and so, but that's not why you hired him, right. Yes. If you want a word for an American company, you have to have a full mouth of teeth.
It helps too. Well, no, you're, you're not gonna fit in because every other male in Canada is missing teeth. This is so weird. So, anyhow, I say it sort of towards the end of, of our conversation, if the interview I said, Michelle, I, I've got a, a curious question for you that I, you really can't.
I quite put my finger on it, but I've noticed that everybody I've interviewed, all these guys are missing one, two, or, or three teeth in their mouth. Very obvious. Well, why do you think that would be? Because Michelle himself had a full mouth of teeth. Okay. And well, he, and he said, well, it's obviously, don't you?
Must not be recalling. What's our number one sport up here in Canada? Everybody plays hockey and anybody who plays a lot of hockey for long enough time is gonna get the stick in the mouth. Teeth are gonna be gone. Yeah. And, that's just how we roll up here in Canada. People lose teeth because they play with cotton.
Oh they play hockey. And I said, well Michelle, what's your story? Did you not play? He does not play? Did you not play hockey? Cuz you have a full mouth of teeth. And he said, ha, I think I played a bit more hockey than the other guys did. Let me show you.
