Film Producer — Loose Change 2nd Edition
Previously Aired On: June 28, 2006 - Listen to this Show!
Korey Rowe, at 22, is a combat veteran of both the Afghanistan and Iraq campaigns in the so-called War On Terror. Returning to civilian life, Korey discovered the hidden story behind the impetus to war and the disturbing truths about what really happened on September 11th, 2001. He has since then devoted all of his energies into helping his childhood friend Dylan Avery promote and distribute Loose Change 2nd Edition and is currently working on a follow up project. Left to right in the photo: Korey Rowe, Jason Bermas, and Dylan Avery.
In Korey’s own words: At 18 for no apparent reason I joined the Army. I guess for a way out of my home town. Joined and not even six months later I found my self in a fox hole in Kandahar, Afghanistan (January 14th, 2002 - July 15th, 2002). Served six months there before returning stateside for a hellish 7 month full out training cycle before being shipped back across the Atlantic to Kuwait where we staged for a nice long year in Iraq (February 28th, 2003 - January 16th, 2004).
I am out of the Army now, and have dove straight into the production of Dylan’s documentary Loose Change.
Loose Change 2nd Edition is the follow-up to the most provocative 9-11 documentary on the market today. This film shows direct connection between the attacks of September 11, 2001 and the United States government. Evidence is derived from news footage, scientific fact, and most important, Americans who suffered through that tragic day.

Tommy Chong is a Canadian-born actor and musician who is well-known for his stereotypical portrayals of hippie-era stoners. He is most widely known for his role as Chong in the marijuana-themed Cheech and Chong comedy movies with Cheech Marin. In the late 1980s, Chong became a naturalized citizen of the United States.
In 2003, Chong was one of those targeted by two American investigations code-named Operation Pipe Dreams and Operation Headhunter, which sought out businesses selling drug paraphernalia, mostly marijuana pipes. He was charged for his part in financing and promoting Chong Glass/Nice Dreams, a company started by his son Paris. Chong was sentenced on September 11, 2003, to 9 months in a federal prison, forfeiture of $103,000, and a year of probation.
Tommy’s book, The I Chong: The Tell-all Prison Diaries of a Comedian Behind Bars by Simon and Schuster is due out later in 2006.
