1 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:07,480 Speaker 1: With Donald J. Trump. You've just pro passed Ronald Reagan 2 00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:11,760 Speaker 1: is the most consequential Republican prosen since Lincoln. You're now 3 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: the gold standard for modern Republican present. You're a Reagan 4 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:19,439 Speaker 1: plus plus plus, which he did to night, mister President. Today, 5 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 1: John leased the might of the United States military against evil. 6 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:27,480 Speaker 1: To our European friends. You've lost your way, You've lost 7 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:30,720 Speaker 1: your sense of who you are and what makes you different. 8 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 1: You're pathetically weak. 9 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: So that Senator Lindsey Graham, and he's already saying that 10 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,840 Speaker 2: Donald Trump is one of the top presidents of all time. 11 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:44,279 Speaker 2: Maybe a bit premature to say that. I think that, 12 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: you know, hindsight twenty twenty, you get a better idea 13 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,279 Speaker 2: of how things land with history in the past behind you. 14 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,600 Speaker 2: Maybe premature that he's saying that, and seems a bit warhawkish. 15 00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 2: Not only did he take that opportunity to say how 16 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:04,160 Speaker 2: great Donald Trump was, but he was also taken that 17 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 2: as a moment to rip on the European countries as well. 18 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, now to take all of this with a grain 19 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 3: of salt, because Lindsay Graham, I mean, we like to 20 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 3: call him the biggest cootie I've ever seen and that's 21 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: a pretty deserved nickname. I mean, he you know, has 22 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 3: a history here he wants called Donald Trump crazy a 23 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 3: kuk and told him to go to hell. So which 24 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 3: is a yeah, yeah, which is it here? Lindsay? I mean, 25 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,280 Speaker 3: we talk about being intellectually honest on this show and 26 00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 3: hate political you know, party politics, and Lindy Lindsay Graham 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: is one of the worst defenders of that. For sure. 28 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: Doesn't mean he's wrong on this certainly premature. We like 29 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 3: to evaluate presidents in terms of decades after they've served 30 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 3: in office. That's when we get the true idea of 31 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,000 Speaker 3: how that person did and performed as president. And so 32 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 3: I think that I think we can cool our heels, 33 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 3: Hiller a little bit and wait for a little bit 34 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 3: of time to go by before we have that sort 35 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 3: of discussion. 36 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously it's a huge win that the Supreme Leader, 37 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 2: the Ayatolokomeni has died, and you know, I did a 38 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 2: little research on that. They have a supreme Leader and 39 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: a president as well, and it's kind of like if 40 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 2: the Supreme Leader were the principal at the high school 41 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 2: and the president was like a class representative. 42 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, Traditionally in dictatorships like this. I mean they've you know, 43 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: the iatolas have always been the seat of real power 44 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 3: in Iran, and then they would have some civilians that 45 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 3: they would stand up as president or vice president or 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 3: various ministers of operations of the country, and those were 47 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,160 Speaker 3: really just figureheads that were taking their direction directly from 48 00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 3: the iatola. 49 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,480 Speaker 2: Last night, Newsmax reported that the head of Hesballo had 50 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 2: been killed as well. According to their reports. Of course, 51 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 2: Iran has continued retaliatory attacks across the region, targeting US 52 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:48,480 Speaker 2: assets and bass and allied countries including Bahrain and Iraq 53 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: and Kuwait. And you've got I believe the American military 54 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: count up to four at this point. However, Donald Trump 55 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 2: doing a press conference right now, and he may give 56 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 2: us new information on that. You've got a former Navy seal, 57 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 2: Senator Cheehy and he was asked because a lot of 58 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: people are saying, here we go again. It's just a 59 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 2: rack all over again, and he was saying, no, this 60 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 2: is not the same. And this is why, you. 61 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 4: Know, where were the calls to protect American service members 62 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 4: when our embassy was captured, when our boats were captured, 63 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 4: on the Obama administration, when our servicemen were captured and tortured, 64 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 4: skidded to death on camera when our servicemen had been 65 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 4: murdered by the hundreds, by the thousands by Iranian regime, 66 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 4: and the response from the Susan Rice's and the Ben 67 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 4: Rhodes and the j Sullivans was to send billions of 68 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 4: dollars in cash to the Iranians and begging them to 69 00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 4: please stop being mean to us, please stop being mean. 70 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: To the free world. 71 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 4: And what do they do in return? They launched rockets, 72 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:52,480 Speaker 4: They launched the October seventh attacks, and literally brutally tortured 73 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 4: and murdered families in front of their family members. Every 74 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 4: time we give them an inch, they take a mile 75 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 4: and they kill more people. So if they're so worried 76 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 4: about protecting the American serviceman Aisha, they should be supporting 77 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 4: exactly what's going on right now, because the American servicemen 78 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,760 Speaker 4: are sick and tired of watching their brothers and sisters 79 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,120 Speaker 4: be slaughtered by the Randing regime and nothing being done 80 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:13,520 Speaker 4: in response. So the President Trump is the first president 81 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 4: EVA in the history of this idiotic regime to finally 82 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,840 Speaker 4: stand up and kill these bastards. What they've been doing 83 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 4: for us for far too long. So if we're going 84 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,159 Speaker 4: to protect the American serviceman, this is. 85 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 3: The way to do it. 86 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 2: You have to remember that Barack Obama gave Iran one 87 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: point seven billion dollars and they use that to fund 88 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,719 Speaker 2: their program. Joe Biden on pros one point or sixteen 89 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,239 Speaker 2: billion of funds for Iran. 90 00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:36,239 Speaker 3: Look, and that's not the only one. I specifically remember 91 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 3: during Bill Clinton's second term, he signed this daunted peace 92 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 3: deal with North Korea. And remember this was going to 93 00:04:43,000 --> 00:04:44,559 Speaker 3: be a deal that was going to keep North Korea 94 00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:47,320 Speaker 3: from ever building a nuclear weapon. And North Korea signed 95 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 3: that deal and then basically went straight over to Pakistan 96 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,239 Speaker 3: and bought all the technology to build themselves a nuclear weapon. 97 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 3: And so the Democrat presidents have done this appeasement for 98 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 3: a long time. And you're right, Barack Obama, shoot Joe 99 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 3: Biden released an incredible amount billions of dollars back to 100 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 3: Iran that were frozen because of appeasement and associations with this. 101 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: I think that the vast appeasement while they still chanted 102 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: death to America. 103 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 3: This has been We talked about this earlier in the show. 104 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 3: This has been going on for fifty years. This has 105 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,599 Speaker 3: been going on for almost our entire lifetimes. It goes 106 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 3: back to the you know, our hostages being captured right 107 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 3: after the fall of the shot in the late seventies 108 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,600 Speaker 3: in Iran, we had our marine base barracks that were 109 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:31,039 Speaker 3: bombed in Beirut that was Iranian. Iran has been the 110 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 3: number one sponsor of terror worldwide for fifty years. Their 111 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,720 Speaker 3: proxies were part of the October seventh attack on Israel 112 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 3: that killed over a thousand Israelis, most of them innocent civilians. 113 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: Iran has been a problem. Nobody debates that, but it's 114 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 3: the part what he's talking about there. Does seem that 115 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,040 Speaker 3: the Democrat presidencies have been a lot more willing to 116 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 3: appease those leaders up until this point. 117 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: And we heard from Lindsey Graham earlier who was saying 118 00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,440 Speaker 2: that Europe had lost their way. Well, here's the Prime 119 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 2: Minister of the UK, and he is now authorizing the 120 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 2: UK to join the movement. 121 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 5: The United States has requested permission to use British bases 122 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 5: for that specific and limited defensive purpose. We have taken 123 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 5: the decision to accept this request to prevent Iran firing 124 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 5: missiles across the region, killing innocent civilians, putting British lives 125 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 5: at risk, and hitting countries that have not been involved. 126 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 2: So what you've got here is you've got the Prime 127 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 2: Minister of the UK authorizing US strikes on Iran from 128 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 2: British military bases. Now, this is a joint force of 129 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 2: action and cure. Starmer could not get any more bad 130 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: publicity in his country. 131 00:06:57,440 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 3: This is what so keep in mind here the think 132 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 3: back to the last year, because Donald Trump and his 133 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 3: administration has gotten an incredible amount of criticism for the 134 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 3: things that they have said about the various countries in Europe. 135 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 3: Jd Vance went over there basically dressed down the entire 136 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 3: European Union for how awful they've been, and they have 137 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 3: been awful. They've completely de industrialized their country. Donald Trump 138 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:19,320 Speaker 3: told them in his first term, quit buying all of 139 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 3: that oil and natural gas from Russia. It's going to 140 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 3: come back to haunt you. And sure enough, they invaded 141 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 3: Ukraine and it came back to haunt them. They're in 142 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: love with this net zero green dream. They've completely weakened 143 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 3: their militaries. They're not contributing what we need to be 144 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,520 Speaker 3: you know, what they should be doing to NATO and 145 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 3: Donald Trump and Jade Vance went over there and dressed 146 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 3: them down, dressed them down pretty hard. And the pearl 147 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 3: clutching that happened from the EU and the EU countries 148 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 3: was incredible. That happened during then, and then things started 149 00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:48,960 Speaker 3: to happen in Iran, and then people needed to step up, 150 00:07:49,120 --> 00:07:51,280 Speaker 3: and we asked the Brits, hey, we'd like to use 151 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: your base in Diego Garcia and they said absolutely not. 152 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,200 Speaker 3: So we said, okay, fine, we'll do this ourselves. If 153 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 3: that's the way you want it, we'll do it ourselves. 154 00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 3: And now we're seeing the European countries come in and 155 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,120 Speaker 3: want to be part of this. What this has just proven, 156 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 3: It has just shown a massive spotlight on how awful 157 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: the current situation is in Europe, how weak Europe looks 158 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 3: right now, how they have done things to support these 159 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 3: woke ideologies like the massive Green Dream, They brought massive 160 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 3: amounts of immigrants into their countries. Europe is just could 161 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: not look weaker at this moment than they do right now. 162 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,440 Speaker 2: So what you've got now is an interim Council who 163 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: are collectively exercising the iatola's authority during the transition. I mean, 164 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 2: they're picking their de facto top leadership until they can 165 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 2: elect a new supreme leader. But Lindsay Graham was asked 166 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 2: by Kristen Welker on NBC, will the United States pick 167 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: the next leader of Iran or will it be the 168 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 2: Iranian people that pick the next leader? Will the United 169 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: States pick the next leader of Iran or will the 170 00:08:58,679 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: Iranian people pick? 171 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 3: Then that's older. 172 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 6: I talked to the Crown Prince. He's got some ideas 173 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 6: about transition. There will be no American boots on the ground. 174 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 6: This is not a rock this is not Germany, this 175 00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,320 Speaker 6: is not Japan. We're going to free the people up 176 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,080 Speaker 6: from a terrorist regime. And the goal is not only 177 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 6: to help the Iranian people to charte a new destiny, 178 00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 6: to make sure no matter who takes over in Iran, 179 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 6: no matter who it is, no matter who the people pick, 180 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 6: they cannot become the largest state sponsor of terrorism. They 181 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 6: can't fuel hasblah, the hoodies and hamas, they can't have 182 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 6: ballistic missiles, they can't have a nuclear weapon. They will 183 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 6: be out of the terrorism business. So the people will pick. 184 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 6: As to the people choose wisely. We want to be 185 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 6: your friend. We'd like to have a good relationship with 186 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 6: you going forward, but that. 187 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 1: Is up to you. 188 00:09:47,080 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 2: Okay, So again, the biggest cootie I've ever seen lease Instagram. 189 00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 2: But you know, they have to have these Iran constitutional 190 00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 2: mechanism for transitional leadership, right, They've got to make sure 191 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 2: that that's in place and followed if in fact they're 192 00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 2: gonna let the Iranian people pick. 193 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 3: Look, so obviously we've got an active war seeing going on. 194 00:10:09,160 --> 00:10:12,119 Speaker 3: Who knows how long that will last. The biggest questions 195 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,839 Speaker 3: always come with what happens after that. And look, they 196 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 3: may select some leaders here in the interim in the 197 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 3: meantime and we end up taking them them out as well. 198 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: But it's what happens after the bomb stop stops stop 199 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,880 Speaker 3: falling as to Those are the real questions, and that's 200 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 3: usually the most difficult part of this. And there is 201 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: absolutely a power vacuum in Iran right now. And yeah, 202 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 3: there may be some remnants of the old leadership that 203 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 3: are going to instill somebody in there, but I gotta 204 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 3: believe it's not gonna last very long. Will the Iranian 205 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 3: people rise up and take to the streets and try 206 00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:43,800 Speaker 3: and take their country back, That's a huge question. I 207 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,360 Speaker 3: think that's what we're all hoping to see. But what 208 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 3: comes out of this when the bombs start falling, It's 209 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:51,719 Speaker 3: gonna be messy. There's gonna be a big power vacuum. 210 00:10:51,840 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 3: And what happens is anybody's guests, Well. 211 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 2: That's it exactly. I mean, regime change. It sounds clean 212 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: on paper, but in reality means instability. It means power 213 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 2: vacuums like you had mentioned in Unintended consequences, and it 214 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:11,920 Speaker 2: means market shakeups and also the price of things changing. 215 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 2: We're being told, Hey, the stock market's already declining today, 216 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,040 Speaker 2: and you've got oil prices that are going to go 217 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:18,839 Speaker 2: up because of this. 218 00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 3: Not a surprise. I mean, we knew that this was 219 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 3: going to happen if the US and Israel ended up 220 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: invading Iran. I mean, we can look at oil right now. 221 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,160 Speaker 3: So oil is up fifteen percent in the last month. 222 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:31,400 Speaker 3: Gold is spiking today again. It's up over fifteen percent 223 00:11:31,400 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 3: in the last month and up strong today, up over 224 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 3: one hundred dollars just today alone. We're going to see 225 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 3: this always happens during times of instability. It certainly always 226 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 3: happens during times of war. The real question is, can 227 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: we weather these crazy swings in the stock market and 228 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: oil and gold until things settle down, that's always the 229 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:49,199 Speaker 3: big question. 230 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: Well, you've got these disruptions right in the straight of Hormuz, 231 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: which is obviously a crucial oil transit route, and so 232 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 2: premiums it's gonna spike. I mean, you've got one fifth 233 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 2: of the world's crude oil flowing through that area. Yeah, 234 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 2: there's going to be Some countries got a little cushion, 235 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 2: like China. Some don't. 236 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 3: There's going to be instability. There's going to be uncertainty 237 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 3: on every level with everything. Should We talked about that 238 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 3: earlier in the show as it relates to housing in 239 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 3: this country. Right now, people are uncertain about it. This 240 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 3: instability is going to give greater uncertainty of that. So 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 3: of course it's going to translate into the price of commodities, 242 00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:29,720 Speaker 3: and we're seeing that be reflected in the stock market 243 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:30,559 Speaker 3: so far this morning. 244 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 2: But you also had a lot of celebrations all over 245 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:39,559 Speaker 2: the world, Irani women removing their you know, their hajiebs 246 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 2: and celebrating in the streets, and not only in this country, 247 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: but in Berlin and in London and everywhere. And uh, 248 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 2: here's just a small clip of celebrations that were happening. 249 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 7: He's dead. How are you feeling, Dame, I think is dead? 250 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: Thanks contented, How do you feel? A fantastic feeling ilievable. 251 00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,839 Speaker 7: The Iranian people, it's a great day for your on 252 00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 7: the Iranians everywhere, it's a great. 253 00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 5: Day for freedom, and it's a very emotional nights emotions. 254 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 3: I'm so happy he's dead. Yeah, I'm s happy. I'm 255 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:23,560 Speaker 3: so happy. 256 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,840 Speaker 2: I saw a clip they somewhere and I ran. The 257 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,240 Speaker 2: regime had placed an American flag on a ground so 258 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: that the students would walk on it to show disrespect 259 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 2: for the United States of America, and instead the students 260 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: were walking around it. They wouldn't step on the flag. 261 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, walking around it. It was an interesting clip. Look, ultimately, 262 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 3: this is going to come down to the Uranian people 263 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 3: and do they rise up and take back control of 264 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 3: their country because they haven't been able to do it. 265 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 3: They've tried, and this brutal regime has repressed them and 266 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,080 Speaker 3: killed them and literally slaughtered them in the streets every 267 00:13:55,120 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 3: time they've done it. Well, now you've got a chance. 268 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,839 Speaker 3: And we talked about personal responsibility earlier in the show too, 269 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 3: on a totally different subject than this, but it certainly 270 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 3: relates to this one. Now, those people and the citizens 271 00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 3: that live in Iran right now, they're being given this opportunity, 272 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 3: they're being given this moment, and we've just got our 273 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 3: fingers crossed and hope they sees it. 274 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, And some people were asking, you know, these celebrations 275 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,320 Speaker 2: were taking place, and as you mentioned Los Angeles and 276 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 2: London and Berlin, and how are those people being oppressed 277 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: by Iranian leadership in those countries. Well, they're happy for 278 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: their families. 279 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,360 Speaker 3: Right A lot of them fled the oppression. A lot 280 00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 3: of them are immigrants and came straight you know, we're 281 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 3: born in Iran and lived there in their lives and 282 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: fled that oppression and came here. And they've got parents 283 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 3: and cousins and uncles that still live in Iran. And 284 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 3: even if you, even if you don't, you still got 285 00:14:40,600 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 3: that kinship to your homeland. And how disastrous it's been 286 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 3: for fifty years for that country right now, and so 287 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 3: of course you're going to have these moments of celebration 288 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 3: when you see just the first glimmer of hope for 289 00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 3: your country in over fifty years. 290 00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 2: But on the flip side of that, as you mentioned 291 00:14:56,720 --> 00:15:00,120 Speaker 2: fifty years. That also means you have an entire generation 292 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: who have been brought up and learned behavior by what 293 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 2: the Eyeshola was forcing on them. 294 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. They don't know anything but oppression. They don't know 295 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 3: anything but the suppression of any uprising or descent in 296 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 3: their country. Yeah, and that's a problem because you can 297 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 3: then become accustomed to it and not recognize freedom when 298 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 3: it's given to you and it's right in front of 299 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: your face. 300 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:29,000 Speaker 2: You're listening to ninety three WYBC. We talked earlier about 301 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,760 Speaker 2: people second guessing buying houses at the last minute and 302 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 2: pulling out of a deal. I've got some property for you. 303 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, what do you do. 304 00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 2: It's in Florida, too, man, nice and warm for you. 305 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 2: It's for sale. Asking price is two point five million, 306 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 2: a little high. 307 00:15:43,600 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: That is out of my budget, officially out of my budget. 308 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 2: The largist newdist Park in Florida is for sale. Yeah. 309 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 2: It's been around since nineteen fifty nine. And there are 310 00:15:57,680 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: some unusual zoning unrestrictions I guess for it because it's 311 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 2: zoned for nudism. 312 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 3: Wait wait, wait, Florida has a zoning regulation just for 313 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: nudist for nudism. 314 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, uh huh, and uh so it really is. You 315 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,760 Speaker 2: you could put houses a subdivision on it and it's 316 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: still zoned for for naked. 317 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 3: It really is. The Free State of Florida, is it 318 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:24,840 Speaker 3: zonist camp? 319 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 2: I am out there. 320 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 3: I'm shocked that nudist camps still exist like that seems 321 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,720 Speaker 3: like such a hippie thing from like the sixties and seventies, 322 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 3: a nudist colony. It just seems so outdated today. But 323 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,920 Speaker 3: I shouldn't be that surprised because when we lived in 324 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,000 Speaker 3: northern Indiana, we lived in the same town that has 325 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 3: a fairly famous nudist camp. 326 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 2: Here's right down the road. 327 00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 3: It was right down the road. We lived in Granger, Indiana, 328 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 3: up outside of South Bend for a long time in 329 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 3: the Sunny Haven nudist colony. Or it is still there. 330 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: I just checked. It's still there. It's still open, it's 331 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 3: still functioning and operating, and it was kind of a 332 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 3: operating It is kind of the joke into that, you know, oh, 333 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 3: sonny Haven. 334 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 2: You'll be a data center soon enough. 335 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 3: Maybe that's where all of the AI corporations should start 336 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 3: looking to build their data centers on new colonies. But 337 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 3: I mean I guess I'm and and maybe the newdist 338 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,639 Speaker 3: camp business isn't such a great business to be in 339 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 3: right now, because they're selling that one in Florida and 340 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 3: they're only asking two and a half million dollars and 341 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 3: sounds like it's a pretty good chunk of property that 342 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 3: it is. I just don't know what that business model 343 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 3: looks like. I guess it's like a membership maybe. 344 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. 345 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 3: Do you think they have day passes, like you can 346 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 3: bring a guest or something? 347 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 2: I think so. 348 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 3: I don't know how any of that work. 349 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 2: You have a memory you don't live there full time, 350 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 2: do you? 351 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:39,639 Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know. 352 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 2: Maybe you do, because apparently this one in Florida there 353 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: are some aging residents that live there full time and 354 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 2: they aren't eager to relocate. That's part of the problem 355 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:54,680 Speaker 2: that this nudist colony is having selling, because there are 356 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 2: people that live there that don't want to go. 357 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 3: It turns out that a nudist camp is not a 358 00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 3: great business to be in right now. What always surprises 359 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,520 Speaker 3: me in my limited knowledge of dudist camps is that 360 00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 3: whenever you see, you know, blurred out photos or something 361 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 3: like that of people at nudist camps. I just always 362 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 3: find it odd that they're always wearing shoes and socks 363 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 3: but nothing else. That's it, that is that is a 364 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,800 Speaker 3: gutsy move. That's a gutsy fashion move. And look, I 365 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 3: get if you're anudist you want to walk around nude, 366 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 3: and great, good for you. Do whatever you want to 367 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 3: free country. I'm all for it. But but and I 368 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 3: get that you would have to wear shoes and socks 369 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 3: because it's kind of like a campground. I guess. So 370 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 3: there's not a whole lot of paved roads. I'm guessing 371 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: it's a lot of gravel and dirt that you're walking on. 372 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: Tan to hear about a nudist colony, Like in the city, right, 373 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:43,400 Speaker 2: there's some you know, apartment complex or condo building that 374 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: oh you know, yeah, this is this is great, this. 375 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 3: High rise nudist condo. Yeah, you know it is definitely 376 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 3: wop it down the elevator naked. I think that goes 377 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 3: back to kind of its hippie roots, where they were 378 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,719 Speaker 3: liked communes and like to be close to nature and 379 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,040 Speaker 3: like to walk around naked, really to nature, walking like 380 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,680 Speaker 3: to walk around naked except for socks and their pair 381 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 3: of new balances that they have on their feet. 382 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 2: They're Birkenstocks shoes. 383 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:11,440 Speaker 3: Oh my god. Can you imagine the number of birkenstocks 384 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 3: that must be walking around on. And that's probably part 385 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,000 Speaker 3: of your initiation. You join the club. Here's your membership. 386 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 3: Appreciate you joining us. Here's your free pair of birkenstocks. 387 00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 2: Where do you put your membership card? By the way, 388 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 2: do you wear the little lanyard? 389 00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 3: Too many jokes, too many jokes that I can't say 390 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 3: on the radio? 391 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 2: Two point five million dollars, it can be yours. The 392 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 2: largest nudist park in Florida for sale. You're listening to 393 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 2: ninety three WYBC. Are there talks happening with Cuba? If 394 00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 2: any talks are happening, the US should make it crystal clear. 395 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 2: They're not going to be rewarding any dictatorship. It should 396 00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:04,159 Speaker 2: be rare real and expand the freedom of the people 397 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,200 Speaker 2: in Cuba and any opportunities for the Cuban people. Donald 398 00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 2: Trump was asked about this, and he did. He said 399 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,159 Speaker 2: it out loud. He said it out loud, and he 400 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 2: said that Cuba is actually talking with us right now. 401 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 7: The Cuban government is talking with us, and they're in 402 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,439 Speaker 7: a big deal of trouble. As you know, they have 403 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 7: no money, they have no anything right now, but they're 404 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 7: talking with us and maybe we'll have a friendly takeover 405 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 7: of Cuba. We could very well end up having a 406 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 7: friendly takeover of Cuba. We've had a lot of years 407 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,800 Speaker 7: of dealing with you, but I've been hearing about Cuba 408 00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:41,920 Speaker 7: since I'm a little boy. 409 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: But they're in. 410 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 7: Big trouble and we could very well something good. Well, 411 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:50,840 Speaker 7: I think very positive for the people that were expelled 412 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 7: or worse from Cuba that live here. You know, we 413 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 7: have people living here that want to go back to Cuba. 414 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 7: Cuba is doing very badly. They are failing Cuba right now, 415 00:21:01,119 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 7: to put it mildly, a failing nation. And you know, 416 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 7: they have no money, to have no oil, to have 417 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 7: no food, and it's really right now and nation in 418 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 7: deep trouble and they want our help. 419 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 2: I completely think that Cuba will be one hundred percent 420 00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,920 Speaker 2: liberated before the end of the Trump presidency. I think 421 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 2: he's going to make that happen. And it's time. It's time. 422 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 2: Same thing that's been going on since the mid sixties. 423 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,280 Speaker 2: The Cubans have been suffering under communist regime. For a 424 00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:30,879 Speaker 2: long time, and they deserve an opportunity to have a 425 00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 2: better life. And you got to think that Kim Jong 426 00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,639 Speaker 2: lun right now is a little worried. 427 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, you guys, remember me. Can can we worry about 428 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 3: one war at a time? We got we got our 429 00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 3: hands full with a ran right now. I mean, it's that. 430 00:21:42,840 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 3: But this is kind of part of Trump's strategy, and 431 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 3: He's spoken about this a little bit that he tends 432 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 3: to overwhelm people with action. He certainly does that as 433 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,640 Speaker 3: it relates to his adversaries in the media, but we're 434 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 3: seeing it right now on the global stage as well. 435 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:59,640 Speaker 3: He wants to overwhelm his enemies with action so that 436 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 3: they don't have a chance to kind of regroup, get 437 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 3: their head above water, and figure out their next point 438 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,359 Speaker 3: of action. He's like, Nope, We're just gonna steamroll and 439 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,200 Speaker 3: go forward and plow ahead. And if that's going to 440 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 3: happen in Cuba, look, obviously, I hope that we have 441 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 3: some sort of peaceful agreement with Cuba, especially because we 442 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,639 Speaker 3: got our hands full with a ran right now. But 443 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 3: according to Donald Trump, at least those conversations have started, 444 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 3: and it makes a lot of sense. Cuba ever since 445 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 3: we took Maduro and he's sitting in a jail cell 446 00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,760 Speaker 3: in the New York prison right now. Cuba lost their 447 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,120 Speaker 3: only source of oil, and that country and its people 448 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:31,520 Speaker 3: are suffering right now because they have no source of energy, 449 00:22:31,520 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 3: they have no imports coming into the country. It cannot 450 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 3: sustain itself. They do not produce enough food, oil, and 451 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:40,639 Speaker 3: other necessities to function as a country. So Cuba's pretty 452 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: much run out of options in a short period of time. 453 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, the discussions were described as exploratory, and they focused 454 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 2: on Cuba's future, potentially involving some economic changes, how sanctions 455 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 2: might be eased if reform occurs, not anything formal. The 456 00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:00,200 Speaker 2: Cuban government has officially dismissed any of the claim of 457 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 2: any high level US talks. He's said that that's strictly speculation. 458 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 2: It's not really clear whether Marco Rubio himself has directly 459 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 2: met with any of the Castro family members or if 460 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 2: the meetings were just handled by AIDS. How serious all 461 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 2: of this is. But again, it's it's being talked about. 462 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: It's in the conversation, and I keep thinking about, do 463 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 2: you remember was it at the was it at the 464 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 2: rally in Butler when Elon Musk was there, is that 465 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,800 Speaker 2: where he said it, when he threw up his arms 466 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 2: in the air and he said, the future is going 467 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: to be amazing. 468 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 3: Yes, that was the Butler two point zh not the 469 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,160 Speaker 3: one with the attempted assassination, but the. 470 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,399 Speaker 2: That's where it happened, right, Yeah, you. 471 00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:44,399 Speaker 3: And I were there and and Elon Musk spoke and at. 472 00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 2: One point in time of his arms and he said, 473 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 2: the future is going to be amazing. 474 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 3: That clip went viral and it was everywhere, And. 475 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:54,360 Speaker 2: I keep thinking about, like was that their plan all along? 476 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,280 Speaker 2: Like were they going to get together and they were like, Okay, 477 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 2: we've got to change It's the new World order. We 478 00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 2: got to change things. So what are we going to do. 479 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 2: We're gonna get rid of these dictator and you know, 480 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 2: these regimes that are just not good for these countries 481 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 2: and any of the countries around them, Venezuela and Iran 482 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 2: and then now Cuba. 483 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that was a big part. Look, Donald 484 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,439 Speaker 3: Trump had bold ideas and a bold strategy when he 485 00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 3: ran for president in twenty twenty four. And look, I 486 00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 3: think what Elon Musk was talking about was a lot 487 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 3: of things. Obviously, he got handed the Doge project. That's 488 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 3: kind of falling apart, but had some good intentions. 489 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 2: Sure, and clearly he was probably talking technology. 490 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's still may all be true. But I 491 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 3: keep going back to this point. Donald Trump's strategy has 492 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 3: always been to overwhelm your enemies with action, and that 493 00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 3: not even just talking about Iran. It's just talking about 494 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 3: keep doing bold actions so that people that are opposed 495 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 3: to you don't have an opportunity to regroup, get their 496 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 3: head above water and figure out how to push back 497 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 3: against you. Just keep pushing to the next thing, and 498 00:24:57,359 --> 00:24:58,440 Speaker 3: the next thing and the next thing. 499 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:04,320 Speaker 2: And with Donald Trump publicly acknowledging the efforts, that does 500 00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 2: suggest that, Yeah, the US is in discussions with people 501 00:25:07,119 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 2: in Havana. 502 00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:09,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, and again hopefully that would end up being a settlement. 503 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 3: I do have some skepticism around this. I mean, we've 504 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 3: seen this proven. 505 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:14,920 Speaker 2: Are we to send Marco Rubio down there? 506 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean it wouldn't be surprised that whatever happens 507 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: in Cuba and whatever changes come about that in some way, 508 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 3: I guarantee you Marco Rubio is going to be part 509 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:26,879 Speaker 3: of that because he's you know, his parents fled Cuba 510 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 3: and came to the United States. He's of Cuban descent, 511 00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 3: he obviously wants to see that country flourish. But Donald Trump, 512 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:37,120 Speaker 3: these dictators don't want to give up power even when 513 00:25:37,119 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 3: they're given every opportunity. The reports are that Trump spoke 514 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 3: to Maduro personally and said, look, if you want to 515 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,440 Speaker 3: go into asylum, you know, fly off to Russia and 516 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,880 Speaker 3: live the rest of your life there, just find no problem. 517 00:25:46,920 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 3: You can do that and we won't come hunt you down. 518 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 3: And he said, nope, I'm not going to do it. 519 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,400 Speaker 3: And supposedly he made the same offer to the Iatole 520 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,200 Speaker 3: and Iran said, hey, if you want to go to Russia, 521 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:57,680 Speaker 3: live out the rest of your days in Russia, just fine, 522 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 3: we'll take care of you know, figure out what to 523 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,680 Speaker 3: do with and he said no to that as well. 524 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,560 Speaker 3: So I got to believe that that pattern holds true. 525 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,919 Speaker 3: And it's good that we're having discussions with the leaders 526 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 3: of Cuba. But these dictators do not like to give 527 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 3: up power even when they're offered an offering. 528 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 2: And then they face consequences. How are you feeling about 529 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 2: Ai Slop? This is interesting because there is an entire 530 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 2: newspaper in Ohio that has a new writer and it 531 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 2: isn't human. It's the Plain Dealer. It's based out of Cleveland, 532 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 2: and they're using AI to draft all of their news 533 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:34,959 Speaker 2: articles and they have a byline they let you know 534 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 2: that this is used with artificial intelligence and that's what 535 00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,520 Speaker 2: has helped generating the story. So what they do is 536 00:26:42,560 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 2: the reporter will put all their notes in any draft 537 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 2: articles and then they just say publish print and AI 538 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,720 Speaker 2: spits out the article and a human will go back 539 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 2: and review it before publication. 540 00:26:57,359 --> 00:26:59,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is it's not a human writing it. This 541 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 3: is kind of a big deal. So this is from 542 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 3: the Cleveland Plane Dealer that is a big time newspaper. 543 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 3: I mean we call it a newspaper. They don't print 544 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:07,960 Speaker 3: a newspaper there in Cleveland at the Plane Dealer anymore. 545 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 3: It's strictly all online. But this is a big deal. 546 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 3: And why I'm okay with this is because it looks 547 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,520 Speaker 3: like they're being fully transparent so far. And I know 548 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 3: there's a lot of people that are against AI, that 549 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 3: are going to fight it tooth and nail, but it's 550 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,959 Speaker 3: here and it's only going to get more prevalent in 551 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 3: our lives. So what I'm asking for, and what I 552 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 3: think a lot of people are asking for is be 553 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 3: transparent when AI. When you're putting out AI content, whether 554 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 3: it's in a news article or a piece of vision 555 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 3: or something else, just say that's what it is. Then 556 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 3: we can make our own decision if that's some content 557 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 3: we want to consume. What was wrong was, if you 558 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 3: remember a few years ago, Sports Illustrated started writing articles 559 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: with AI, but they made up fake names and gave 560 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 3: them fake pictures to pass it off like it was 561 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 3: a real journalist. That's where people have problems. Don't try 562 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,200 Speaker 3: and pull one over on my eye, you know, pull 563 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 3: one the wool over on my eyes on this one. 564 00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:59,080 Speaker 3: Be upfront, be honest. I think we're going to see 565 00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,760 Speaker 3: this a lot more here. There is a hard fact 566 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 3: that the media needs to realize. Journalism in today's day 567 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 3: and age is a awful business model. The consumer does 568 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 3: not want to pay, for the most part, for the 569 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 3: content you are creating. There are a handful of outliers 570 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 3: in the business industry as it relates to that, but 571 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:22,560 Speaker 3: journalism is a failed business model, so. 572 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 2: It's hard to do. It. Takes a lot of time, 573 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 2: takes a lot of efforts. When you're seeking out the truth. 574 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 2: Imagine think about your own life when you're trying to 575 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 2: seek out the truth maybe of your relationship or a 576 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 2: business deal. How much effort you put into that. Now, 577 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 2: just you know, escalate that into a bigger I mean 578 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 2: a political scale. Holy moly, it. 579 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,720 Speaker 3: Gets a lot of time. No, you're exactly right, and 580 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,360 Speaker 3: I think that's a great point on here. Journalism done 581 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,479 Speaker 3: properly is really really expensive. And the old business model 582 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 3: of getting people to pay you twenty dollars a month 583 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,640 Speaker 3: for us to deliver a newspaper to your door and 584 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,600 Speaker 3: for me to sell advertising in that newspaper that worked. 585 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 3: That model's gone, is never coming back. And so I'm 586 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 3: not celebrating the death of journalism here, but I'm saying 587 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 3: journalists need to wake up and these media companies need 588 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 3: to wake up and realize that is never ever ever 589 00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:12,600 Speaker 3: coming back. And so we've got to look at different 590 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 3: ways of doing things if we want good journalism in 591 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 3: this country. 592 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,400 Speaker 2: So some of the staff members at this newspaper, they 593 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,280 Speaker 2: obviously they were expressing some concerns and they said that 594 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: it was going to harm their journalistic quality, their journalistic integrity. 595 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 2: It always comes down to that. Also, their newsroom morale, 596 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 2: training of new journalists, and turning their local news into 597 00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 2: content farm. Well, that's what the ownership wants. They want clicks, likes, 598 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 2: and views, right. 599 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,960 Speaker 3: And that is exactly push it out, exactly the response 600 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 3: I would expect to get from an old school journalist 601 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 3: who don't realize that the old business model is never 602 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,960 Speaker 3: ever coming back, fight and claw for the way things 603 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 3: used to be. Meanwhile, your business is crumbling and more 604 00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 3: and more newspapers. Hey, here's the other option for you, newspaper. 605 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 3: Just close up shop, turns off the lights, and then 606 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: there's nothing coming out. There's no journalism there. That's the 607 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 3: other option that you're looking at here. So I don't 608 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:11,040 Speaker 3: love the idea of AI journalist, but I do like 609 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,880 Speaker 3: that the Cleveland Plane Dealer is at least being upfront 610 00:30:14,080 --> 00:30:16,479 Speaker 3: and transparent about this and telling us that's exactly what 611 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 3: it is. 612 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 2: And they are saying that it's not AI just writing 613 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 2: the whole story. They are getting notes put in, you know, 614 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 2: prompted from an actual human. There's a difference between prompting 615 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 2: AI to write a story based on this versus transcribing 616 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:37,560 Speaker 2: notes or you know, sweeping different websites for keywords it 617 00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:41,080 Speaker 2: can definitely help you with your job, just don't do 618 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: the entire job. 619 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:43,680 Speaker 3: Well, I'm gonna let you in on a dirty little 620 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 3: secret here. Yeah, every single newsroom in this country is 621 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 3: currently using AI in some capacity. 622 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: Well, if it helps them be more productive, sure, that's 623 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,440 Speaker 2: that's okay, as long as it's not taking over of 624 00:30:58,480 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 2: the work. 625 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,320 Speaker 3: It's the world we live in. Look, if you're not 626 00:31:01,520 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 3: using AI at least to summer degree on your job today, 627 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 3: in two or three years, you're falling behind me. In 628 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 3: two or three years, you're gonna be using AI for 629 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 3: your job or you're probably not gonna have that job anymore. 630 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 3: It's just the way the modern world works. Journalism ain't special. 631 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 3: You're not any special than any other business. 632 00:31:19,040 --> 00:31:19,640 Speaker 2: I think they are. 633 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 3: They think they are. Just ask them. They'll tell you 634 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 3: that they're the most important thing in the world. But 635 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 3: they're not. Especially when it comes to a business. You're 636 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 3: just like every other business. You got to turn a 637 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 3: profit at some point, and if you don't, they're going 638 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 3: to turn the lights off and shut the business down. 639 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 3: So if a way that you can mitigate and manage 640 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 3: your costs and still put out journalism is using AI, 641 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:39,920 Speaker 3: I don't know if it's gonna work, but what you've 642 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 3: been doing hasn't been working. 643 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 2: That's true. Michael Jordan had a one of one Bull's 644 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:46,479 Speaker 2: card and it sold for a lot of money. It 645 00:31:46,520 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 2: was a one of a kind nineteen ninety seven Ultra 646 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan masterpiece card. Sold it auction for are you 647 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:54,680 Speaker 2: ready for it? 648 00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 3: I'm ready two point one million dollars. Yeah, that was 649 00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,040 Speaker 3: a big auction over the weekend. And look at it 650 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 3: seems like every week we hit here, we talk about 651 00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 3: is that one of ours? That way, I do not 652 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 3: know I was. I was not the seller, but that 653 00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:06,719 Speaker 3: one made headlines over there. 654 00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 2: It would be signs. 655 00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 3: But yes, there would be signs if I had sold 656 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 3: a sports card for two million dollars. But actually, the 657 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 3: the the uh sports memorabilia auction over the weekend that 658 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 3: is getting all the headlines this morning was a pair 659 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:25,920 Speaker 3: of Hulk Hogan's wrestling boots that he wore during WrestleMania 660 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: one at Madison Square Garden. Everybody was freaking out because 661 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 3: over the weekend the bidding had gotten up to three 662 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars, and then it got up to four 663 00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars. They ended up selling for over one 664 00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 3: million dollars. Are you serious, aull Hogan. 665 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 2: It showed me the other night and it was only 666 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,560 Speaker 2: at like five hundred is I know. 667 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 3: That's what I'm talking about. 668 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: But all you said, you said, oh, somebody else just 669 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 2: put a bid in, which means the auction the clock 670 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 2: restarts for another thirty minutes. 671 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 3: So for a lot of these collectors' auctions, you know, yes, 672 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 3: So it's not this thing like eBay where you can 673 00:32:57,040 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 3: just put in your bid there with one second left 674 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 3: and win it. No, every time there's a bid, then 675 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,400 Speaker 3: extra thirty minutes gets tacked on. And that auction went 676 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 3: until two o'clock in the morning on Sunday morning, and 677 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:09,280 Speaker 3: hul Cogan's wrestling boots from wrestle that he wore during 678 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 3: WrestleMania One sold for just over one million dollars. 679 00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: I wis. Do you remember what the note was on 680 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 2: the boots? He wrote something he did because he wrote 681 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 2: it in sharpie. 682 00:33:20,320 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was something about how this. 683 00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,000 Speaker 2: Is my actual blood. 684 00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is from my boots from the from the 685 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,120 Speaker 3: event at Madison Square Gardens. So apparently there was a 686 00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,040 Speaker 3: little bit of hul Cogan's blood on the boots, which 687 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 3: I'm sure wrestling collectors thought made it even better. So 688 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 3: that was the big headline over the weekend. How much 689 00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: should they sell? 690 00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:38,880 Speaker 2: For? 691 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 3: Just over a million dollars? I think it ended up 692 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,120 Speaker 3: being like about one just under one point one million, 693 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 3: like a million, ninety thousand dollars. By the way, Logan Paul, 694 00:33:47,120 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 3: the YouTube star and brother of Jake Paul, was the 695 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,040 Speaker 3: second bidder on that. He bit it up to just 696 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 3: over a million dollars and then. 697 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 2: Do we know who? 698 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,920 Speaker 3: And then back off. The winner of that auction has 699 00:33:57,960 --> 00:33:59,960 Speaker 3: not publicly come forward just yet, okay. 700 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 2: And they weren't our boots. You didn't have those in 701 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:04,520 Speaker 2: a box so much. 702 00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,120 Speaker 3: That was not the seller on that one either. Again, 703 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,440 Speaker 3: if it was us, there would be SI. 704 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 2: You're listening to ninety three WIBC. I think what it 705 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:20,920 Speaker 2: shows is that we are definitely in the golden age 706 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 2: at the conspiracy theory. Jim Carrey made a public appearance 707 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:29,200 Speaker 2: at the fifty first Caesar Awards in Paris. It was 708 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:33,280 Speaker 2: an honorary award for his film career, and he delivered 709 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 2: a speech in French. But it was his appearance that 710 00:34:37,640 --> 00:34:41,120 Speaker 2: sparked the major reaction, especially online, a lot of people 711 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,480 Speaker 2: saying that he looked really different, including the shape of 712 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 2: his face, his hair, his features, the color of his eyes, 713 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:53,040 Speaker 2: and even the hand that he was signing autographs with. 714 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 2: Apparently he's left handed, but he was signing his autograph 715 00:34:56,480 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 2: with his right hand. Known for his dark brown eyes, 716 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 2: and he was a baby blues. I mean that can 717 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 2: be changed with contacts. Many people were saying that this 718 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:12,479 Speaker 2: was a makeup artist known as Alexis Stone and. 719 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 3: Not really Jim Carrey, and not. 720 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 2: Really Jim Carrey, a guy who's famous for putting on 721 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:22,240 Speaker 2: a mask and doing the makeup and just transforming into 722 00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 2: the character. There's been a lot of major brands that 723 00:35:25,040 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 2: have sought after this alex Stone makeup artists for his 724 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 2: special effects, and he's become famous for his transformations. He's 725 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 2: done a lot of different people. So was it Jim Carrey? 726 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: Was it a makeup artist? 727 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? How bad has the plastic surgery culture gotten in 728 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 3: Hollywood to the point where now we're questioning whether or 729 00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 3: not that's, you know, even the real person or so 730 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,920 Speaker 3: I do think there And look, this is America. You 731 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,440 Speaker 3: can do whatever you wanted if you want to get 732 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:55,680 Speaker 3: plastic surgery, knock yourself out. But it is always disappointing 733 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:57,600 Speaker 3: when you see celebrities that you know, we come to 734 00:35:57,640 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 3: know and love that's so drastically changed their appearance. I'm 735 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,439 Speaker 3: trying to think Kenny Rodgers, right before he passed away, 736 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 3: didn't look anything like Kenny rod Joan Rivers probably one 737 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,319 Speaker 3: of the one of the biggest ones. Again, before she 738 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:12,799 Speaker 3: passed away, she had so much plastic surgery, looked nothing 739 00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 3: like her. Obviously. Michael Jackson, most famously, you know, changed 740 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,319 Speaker 3: his look entirely. But there's something to be said. Look, 741 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:21,360 Speaker 3: I get it, our celebrities are gonna look old. Julia 742 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 3: Roberts doesn't look like Julia Roberts anymore from Pretty Woman, 743 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:29,760 Speaker 3: and that's okay. I'd much rather see celebrities age gracefully 744 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 3: and naturally then all of a sudden turn on the 745 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 3: TV one day and be like, oh boy, that is 746 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:36,879 Speaker 3: a terrible nose job that you got there. 747 00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,279 Speaker 2: It's it's it's just next level. I mean, there's the 748 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,759 Speaker 2: change in the color of your hair. Maybe putting on 749 00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 2: a little bit too much of the black dye to 750 00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 2: cover up that salt and pepper, But yeah, it's like 751 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:53,040 Speaker 2: next level. Some people were suggesting that it was a 752 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:57,799 Speaker 2: clone or a body double or you know, I mean 753 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 2: when you're when you're saying, oh it's a clone, that's 754 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: you're really out there. Yeah, on a conspiracy and. 755 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 3: Looks some celebrities, at least one in particularly Jennifer Gray, 756 00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:11,760 Speaker 3: she almost lost her whole career when she had plastic surgeries. 757 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,240 Speaker 3: Or she was famous in Ferris Buellers and dirty dancing 758 00:37:14,280 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 3: and had kind of a larger nose. She got a 759 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 3: nose job and all of a sudden nobody wanted to 760 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 3: cast her in movies anymore. Yeah, so it goes both 761 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 3: way on this. I would just prefer to see them 762 00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:26,840 Speaker 3: age naturally rather than this shocking obvious plastic surgery. 763 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 2: Is that with or without the ozenpic drugs. Well that's 764 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,879 Speaker 2: a conversation for another day Tuesday Show. Thank you, Jim, 765 00:37:32,920 --> 00:37:35,720 Speaker 2: thank you Kevin, Thank you for listening. This is ninety 766 00:37:35,719 --> 00:37:37,160 Speaker 2: three WWC.
