1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,200
Speaker 1: The CEO of Ford, Jim Farley, who I believe is

2
00:00:05,320 --> 00:00:09,880
Speaker 1: in relation to Chris Farley, the late Great. Jim Farley

3
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: says that he can't fill five thousand mechanic jobs paying

4
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: one hundred and twenty thousand dollars per year right now. Quote,

5
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 1: we are in trouble in this country. I can't fill

6
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,560
Speaker 1: five thousand mechanic jobs paying one hundred and twenty thousand

7
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,480
Speaker 1: dollars per year. What do we make of this?

8
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 2: You probably better pump up the pay then, buden. I mean,

9
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: if nobody's going for one hundred and twenty, go for

10
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty. Right.

11
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,839
Speaker 1: It's not like this is a mom and pop pizza

12
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: place where yeah, Ford is in danger of closing down.

13
00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: You know, they're not going to be able to pay

14
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,199
Speaker 1: their bills next month. This is Ford. So maybe instead

15
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: of oh, I don't know, making twenty five million dollars

16
00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 1: next year, you make twenty one million dollars as your salary.

17
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:05,199
Speaker 3: Oh oh no, no, no, you can't do that because

18
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 3: like I get you know, like if you are a

19
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 3: McDonald's franchisee owner and you're like, I can't afford to

20
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: pay people thirty dollars.

21
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: An hour minimum wage to make big max. That's not

22
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: our business model. I can't stay in business, but Ford can.

23
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: Ford's got the money, right, got the money, and they've

24
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 1: got what I've been told is a very strong union

25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 1: of workers. So I don't know. I on one hand,

26
00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:33,920
Speaker 1: I get being a business owner and you're like, what

27
00:01:33,959 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: am I supposed to do? They're asking for these ridiculous things.

28
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,600
Speaker 1: But on the other hand, if you're Ford, you're not

29
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: quite the mom and pop pizza place, right. I just

30
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 1: saw Rockstar Pizza in Brownsburg. Their ovens closed down and

31
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 1: they were freaking out, But then the community stepped up

32
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 1: and everybody said, hey, we're gonna help you out, and

33
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: they kept them going and now they got their new oven.

34
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: Like that's different. That's awesome, But that's different than a

35
00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,480
Speaker 1: mega place like Ford.

36
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,360
Speaker 2: Ford's got the money. Come on now, I mean, how

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:09,239
Speaker 2: does the labor market work? Labor like, labor sets the price, right,

38
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: not not in management.

39
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 1: Right, it's the labor market. So you're right, the labor

40
00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: kind of sets the point to where they're willing to

41
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 1: accept a job. Labor sets the price, not the management.

42
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 1: So you either play by their rules or you just

43
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:28,520
Speaker 1: say we're going to figure out a way to do

44
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: these jobs without employees. Maybe it's a machine. Maybe it's AI.

45
00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,800
Speaker 1: Now I don't think AI can get under your car

46
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 1: and fix it, but I'm sure there's some nerds somewhere

47
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 1: figuring out a machine that can.

48
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 2: Either way, the cost is being passed on to the consumer.

49
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 1: That is you r I right, So if you can't

50
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: afford to buy a Ford, then you make other plans. Again,

51
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 1: that's the market, but that's also how the labor market work.

52
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 2: They still sell Dotson's.

53
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: Jevy Chavette still out there somewhere the Gremlin. Are they

54
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: still producing the Gremlin?

55
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 2: By there is question and maybe somebody in the YouTube

56
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: we can't.

57
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no Wi Fi right now, so we can't

58
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: do the YouTube chat or Twitter.

59
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 2: Really, it's the Chevy Cavalier out there. That was the

60
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 2: first brand new car I ever bought in my life

61
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:23,080
Speaker 2: in my early twenties. It was a Chevy Cavalier and

62
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: I put rims on it. Oh I had Uh.

63
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:29,120
Speaker 1: Did you have tinted windows? Did you wear a lot

64
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: of Drakar?

65
00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 2: I wore dra car. I had tinted windows. I had

66
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 2: a twelve stack CD player installed in the back with

67
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: a gosh, what an alpine alpine speaker bumping? Not a speaker,

68
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,480
Speaker 2: the alpine radio that the player?

69
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 1: Was it the disposable one you could pop off and

70
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: carry with you later on?

71
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:55,240
Speaker 2: Because that was such a power so people wouldn't steal it.

72
00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: Such a power move to walk into a place with

73
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 1: your face of your CD player put it in your pocket.

74
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,360
Speaker 2: Could you imagine me, like, what was I thinking? Putting?

75
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: Like I spent money to put rims on a Chevy Cavalier.

76
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: Did it warrant any young lady taking her breeches off?

77
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 1: Did anybody be like, oh, look at his car, I

78
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: won't be needing these anymore. Did that happen? Yes or no?

79
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 1: Because if it happened, then it was worth it.

80
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 2: I don't think it happened as a direct result of

81
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: me putting rims on my Chevy Cavalier. Let's put it

82
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 2: that way.

83
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,719
Speaker 1: If they would have got to your car and it

84
00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: would have been a regular Cavalier but not the souped

85
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 1: up cavalier, would the panties have dropped? That's a serious question, Nige.

86
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 2: I don't think so. I don't think so. I don't

87
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 2: think so. I don't think the rims I think there

88
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 2: was more my personal preference. Allison never been turned on

89
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:47,360
Speaker 2: by somebody's car.

90
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 1: No, oh no, not at all, okay nothing, No, not

91
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,000
Speaker 1: a Corvette. No, even if they walk out and they

92
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,920
Speaker 1: have their disposable face of their CD player that is,

93
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,120
Speaker 1: and turn you on a little bit.

94
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 2: She doesn't even know what you're talking about.

95
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: That I I've no idea what you're talking about there now.

96
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 2: When like I would have the factory I had the

97
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 2: factory radio pulled out of the Chevy Cavalier in nineteen

98
00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 2: ninety nine when I was working at Acts like my first,

99
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: my first full time job, and they put in an

100
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:26,400
Speaker 2: Alpine with the twelve CD player in the back. Sure,

101
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 2: and the face of the Alpine could be you could

102
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: take it off and take it with you so they

103
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,679
Speaker 2: wouldn't steal the radios. A burglar wouldn't steal the radio.

104
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:41,240
Speaker 1: And theft was a big deal. People are having their

105
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 1: car stereos stole it all.

106
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 2: The time, all the time. What was in the twelve

107
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: D CD player? All rock stuff from Zeppelin to Metallica

108
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: to God. See, that's weird.

109
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 1: When you've soaped up your car though, like when you

110
00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:56,279
Speaker 1: soup up your car around that time, I would figure

111
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: you had some jay Z, you would have had some.

112
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 2: Snuff, some of some gangster rap was in there, okay,

113
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,680
Speaker 2: But I was never like a jay Z Tupac guy.

114
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:08,880
Speaker 1: As nobody ever goes down the street with their boom

115
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,840
Speaker 1: and system and they're souped up car blaring sound garden.

116
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,839
Speaker 2: Well yeah, no, I no, I liked rock, but I

117
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,040
Speaker 2: did have my n w A moments and ice Cube.

118
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,599
Speaker 1: Were you like Michael Bolton and Office Space when you

119
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,560
Speaker 1: pulled up to a stoplight and you looked over and

120
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,240
Speaker 1: saw an actual black guy, did you roll the window

121
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 1: up at that point just.

122
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 2: Kind of kind of side like subtly moved my hand

123
00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,480
Speaker 2: to hey, you guys like Diddy too, it's the hammer

124
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: and Nigel so
