Tariffs seem to be 5 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 1: a daily thing with you guys. 6 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, they do, don't they. And as you mentioned, the 7 00:00:13,240 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 2: President today had a meeting with the Prime Minister of 8 00:00:15,960 --> 00:00:18,759 Speaker 2: India and had offered to talk about easing some of 9 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:23,520 Speaker 2: those tariffs and buy more US oil gas and concessions 10 00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,759 Speaker 2: that may have sort of postponed or pushed back a 11 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: trade war. But it doesn't look like they're going to 12 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 2: do that. Like you said, it's going to be sort 13 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 2: of a tit for tat situation. And he's saying this 14 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,200 Speaker 2: right as the Prime minister right there. 15 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,840 Speaker 1: Here is a big thing, he says across the board 16 00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: for those people who have trade imbalances. He's smiling. He's 17 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 1: got the Indian prime minister there, they're smiling, and basically 18 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,400 Speaker 1: he nails India right there right next to him. 19 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's that seems to be the way he's 20 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: going with a lot of leaders these days. And then 21 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 2: of course he brought up the migrant situation. You know, 22 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 2: more than seven hundred thousand from me you're here in 23 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 2: the US illegally. And that's the third that most that 24 00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:06,280 Speaker 2: we have behind Mexico and l Salvador. And the Prime 25 00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: Minister said, well, okay, anybody that's here in the US illegally, 26 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 2: you're going to be taken back. And President Trump said, 27 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,679 Speaker 2: you know what, we're promising a mass deportation. It's kind 28 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:17,720 Speaker 2: of the things you would think that they would discuss 29 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 2: maybe behind closed doors and then maybe a spokesperson would 30 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 2: release after the meeting. But to have a lot of 31 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: this sort of right there in the public, with the 32 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: cameras going live is just to it makes it for 33 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 2: very a very awkward situation. 34 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's also shocking or and that's his style, 35 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: and then they'll sort it out later, you know. And 36 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:36,479 Speaker 1: that's that's the way. That's why so many of the 37 00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,840 Speaker 1: initiatives don't actually happen, because it's like, oh, yeah, there's 38 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: some there's some fine print to actually deal with here, 39 00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:46,040 Speaker 1: Sorry about that, yeah soon. Now. Robert F. Kennedy, Junr. 40 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: Has been sworn in as Health Secretary. 41 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, he he's one of the President's 42 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 2: most controversial cabinet picks. He's going to oversee a lot 43 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: of our health agencies here. He's going to have eighty 44 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 2: thousand employees, a trillion dollar budget, a lot of people. 45 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 2: Both sides of the hour a publican Democrats had questioned 46 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 2: his health claims about vaccines. No Democrats backed them, and 47 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 2: only former Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was the only 48 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 2: Republican to vote against him. But you know, he said 49 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 2: that I promised the President that if I was confirmed, 50 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: I'm going to do everything in my power to put 51 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: the health of Americans back on track. But it's kind 52 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: of hard seeing him be fair minded about this when 53 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: he's had such an extreme view and such a controversial 54 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,520 Speaker 2: view about vaccines for so long. 55 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: Wait to see responsibility can cause changes. Now, I am 56 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 1: talking to my overseas correspondent about love. Now, Am I 57 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:42,079 Speaker 1: talking about Valentine's Day and the experts saying that men 58 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 1: may be more romantic than women? Am I really doing 59 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: this right now? 60 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 2: Well? You are? I mean, it's it's Valentine's Day already 61 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,799 Speaker 2: over there. We still have a few hours before it's 62 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: Valentine's Day over here, and they are saying that, according 63 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:57,799 Speaker 2: to behavioral and brain sciences, that romantic relationships are more 64 00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 2: central to men's well being than women. And they're saying that, 65 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 2: you know, in popular culture that women prioritize romantic relationships 66 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: more than guys, although they're finding that evidence paints kind 67 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,639 Speaker 2: of this different picture, and they're finding that research, you know, 68 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,399 Speaker 2: the men on average relying more on their romantic partners 69 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 2: for emotional support and intimacy, and single men are more 70 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: likely than single women to search for a partner and 71 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,960 Speaker 2: they're more likely to sort of I think, idealize romantic connections. Now, 72 00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 2: can I just say this before anybody else goes off? 73 00:03:27,080 --> 00:03:30,519 Speaker 2: Let us remember romance changes over time. So when you're dating, 74 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,400 Speaker 2: flowers in a week and get away may seem like 75 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: a huge romantic gesture, But as you get older and 76 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: you're married, you know, helping with the kids, or doing 77 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 2: laundry or cleaning the house, fixing dinner maybe just as 78 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: appreciated as you know, jewelry or a weekend getaway too. 79 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 1: Absolutely, it's a team, and it's team with yes, and 80 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: you think his teammates.
