1 00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: The Mark Simon Show on seven or well, Hey, we 2 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:11,840 Speaker 1: got a lot to get to this hour. Prince Andrew, 3 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: as you know, was arrested like seven hours ago eight 4 00:00:16,840 --> 00:00:20,759 Speaker 1: hours apparently, is still in custody as we speak. He 5 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:26,599 Speaker 1: remains in custody and police are searching his residences. I 6 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:28,840 Speaker 1: guess they're going through his computers. Oh my god, could 7 00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:33,519 Speaker 1: you mention what's on this guy's computer? This is not 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: going to go well for him. They're looking through documents. 9 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:40,600 Speaker 1: There are also a lot of people who are saying 10 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,760 Speaker 1: that this guy's going to be in real trouble Prince Andrew, 11 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,640 Speaker 1: and if they seize his computers and look at his 12 00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: Google searches and what porn sites he was on and 13 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:52,120 Speaker 1: this is it's going to be very bad for him. 14 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: So he's going to find himself in major trouble, facing prison. 15 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: Most people say that know him say, this is a 16 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: guy who will squeez talk, do anything to get out 17 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 1: of trouble, make a deal. He will turn people in 18 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 1: left and right. Who knows what he knows and what 19 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: he can trade. But this is going to get very 20 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: very interesting, cops, are you know, Although he's got a 21 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: couple of residences, a convoy of vehicles pulled into his 22 00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:25,319 Speaker 1: various houses, convoys of vehicles, and they're searching everything. The 23 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 1: search is continuing as we speak. This is again, this 24 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 1: is going to be really ugly before it's over. We 25 00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,880 Speaker 1: have assembled off the Iranian coast, off the near Iran. 26 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: We have the biggest strike force we've assembled in I 27 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: think ever, maybe huge, huge, huge strike force. We've just 28 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: sent the USS Gerald Ford there. That is the largest 29 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: warship on Earth. It's the most advanced aircraft carrier we 30 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: have nuclear powered. It's designed to carry more than seven 31 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:04,800 Speaker 1: five aircraft F thirty five c's lightning two stealth fighters, 32 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 1: super hornets, growler radar jamming jets. I mean, this is 33 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 1: serious stuff. This is in addition to everything else. We've 34 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 1: got four destroyers there. We've got destroyers patrolling the straits 35 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 1: of Hormoose. We've got the Lincoln warship is there. So 36 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: this is really really serious stuff. This is way way, 37 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: way beyond what we did in Venezuela. And Iran is 38 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 1: doing what Iran usually does, being ridiculous, threatening everything on Earth, 39 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: threatening the president, threatening all kinds of stuff. But again 40 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: Maduro tried that it's not a good strategy. But if 41 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: they were smart, they would make a deal of some kind. 42 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: We are negotiating with them in Europe. I think in Paris, 43 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: if they had any brains, they would make a deal. 44 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: But they think they're just too stupid to do it. 45 00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 1: Here's the White House Press Secretary. 46 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: President has always been very clear though, with respect to 47 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 2: Iran or any country around the world, diplomacy is always 48 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 2: his first option. And Iran would be very wise to 49 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,320 Speaker 2: make a deal with President Trump and with this administration. 50 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 1: Uh. The keywords they're very wise. That's not Iran very crazy, 51 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: but not very wise. Here's Vice President Vance. 52 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: We do have a very powerful military. The President's shown 53 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 3: a willingness to use it. He also has a remarkable 54 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: diplomatic team. He shown a willingness to use that too. 55 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 3: Our primary interest here is we don't i Ran to 56 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 3: get a nuclear weapon. We don't want nuclear proliferation. If 57 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: it Ran gets a nuclear weapon, there are a lot 58 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: of other regimes, some friendly, some not so friendly, who 59 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 3: would get nuclear weapons after them. That would be a 60 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: disaster for the American people. The President has all options 61 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 3: on the table. 62 00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: The brilliant response from Iran. 63 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 4: We have stated these many times, my own statements are 64 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 4: not important. What matters from an ideological standpoint is the 65 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 4: policy and the fatois of the Supreme Leader. We are 66 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 4: in no way seeking nuclear weapons. Whatever form of verification 67 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 4: they want to carry out, we are ready for that 68 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 4: verification to take place. 69 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: Well, that's great if you like lying gibberish. AOC is 70 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: more clear than that. What a word solid of nonsense. 71 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,520 Speaker 1: So and again we've seen with the bombing of the 72 00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: Iran nuclear facilities, which was an incredible military operation, from 73 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: the seizing of Maduro where we unveiled all kinds of 74 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 1: secret weapons nobody knew we had that just paralyzes the 75 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:30,240 Speaker 1: enemy literally. We've seen all this. Obvious we always had 76 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: the most powerful military, but it's obvious that everything under 77 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: Trump in the last year has been cranked up to 78 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: absolute state of the art and beyond military weapons, tactics, 79 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: techniques and say what you want about Pete Hegseith, but 80 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: he is run now in his first year some of 81 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:52,560 Speaker 1: the most amazing, unbelievable military operations ever. So if I 82 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 1: were Iran, I would take note of that. I would 83 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: take note of that. Obviously, our intelligence is very good 84 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,840 Speaker 1: over there. When we took out the nuclear Actress, if 85 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: and people are saying this could happen soon as soon 86 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,159 Speaker 1: as a Saturday, a couple of days from now. But 87 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: if this happens, obviously we will very very quickly, in 88 00:05:08,600 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: just seconds, take out every military asset of Iran. If 89 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: we wanted to go in and just seize the leader 90 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: and take them out, physically take them out. We saw 91 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: how we can do that with Maduro. So keep an 92 00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: eye on that could happen this weekend. State of the 93 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: Union is Tuesday. Maybe they want to have it done 94 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:30,240 Speaker 1: by tuesday, who knows, but keep an eye on it. 95 00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: Nancy Guthrie, Hey, they're looking in Mexico. There is a 96 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: couple of these ransom notes. They don't know if they're real, 97 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: they're not real, but a couple of them have indicated 98 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,520 Speaker 1: that she's in Mexico. Where she lives is very close. 99 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: It's like sixteen miles from the border. So as the 100 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: kidnappers escaped, obviously be smart and quick to get over 101 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 1: the border into Mexico. We have apparently started working with 102 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,520 Speaker 1: Mexican authorities for them to start helping. You know, there's 103 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: a task. Everybody hates this local sheriff there, what's his name, 104 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: Nano nanos whatever, isn't it. They just think he's a 105 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: Barney Fife, grand standing, small town bumbling a show off. 106 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: But we've got the FBI there. Apparently with the FBI 107 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,280 Speaker 1: and the FEDS, the Trump is sent. They have a 108 00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:21,679 Speaker 1: team of four hundred people on the ground, four hundred 109 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: working on this. Here's Harvey Levin. 110 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 5: The search for Nancy got three has gone international. We 111 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 5: have learned the FBI has told federal Mexican law enforcement 112 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 5: to tell various police agencies to be on the lookout 113 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 5: for Nancy and her kidnapper. Now, our law enforcement sources 114 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 5: are telling us that it is possible. They believe that 115 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 5: Nancy was taken across the border, but they doubt if 116 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 5: she is across the border, that it happened directly after 117 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 5: the kidnapping. 118 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: Well, we'll see. Hey, Stephen Colbert, this is hard to 119 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: believe he lied to us. Could you believe that called 120 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 1: Beert lying? Well, this all started when he was trying 121 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: to push a certain candidate who's running for the Senate 122 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:13,200 Speaker 1: in Texas, Tarrico, what's his name, Tall Rico, And they 123 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: had him on to do a big interview with him 124 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: to help promote him, try to help him win that 125 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: Senate seat that primary. Well, the FCC stepped in. Now, 126 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 1: there has always been this equal time law. If you 127 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 1: have a candidate on during an election, you're supposed to 128 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 1: offer time to the opposing candidate. And this equal time 129 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 1: law has been there for a million years. However, over 130 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 1: the last twenty thirty years it stopped being a factor. 131 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: They just stopped enforcing it. They never bothered anybody with it. 132 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: Nobody ever said anything but the Trump administration because the 133 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: media is so biased now and such fake news, they've 134 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:53,679 Speaker 1: decided to start enforcing that again. So they've let people 135 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: know they've been apparently investigating the view because they've been 136 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: having also to a one sided nonsense. When they want 137 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: to push a Democrat, they're having a Democrat on and 138 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 1: never allowing any Republican equal time. And that's what Colbert 139 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: was doing here, not allowing the opponent equal time. Well, 140 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: Colbert's been lying to us all week claiming that a 141 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,480 Speaker 1: CBS stepped in and said he can't have this guy on. 142 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:20,880 Speaker 1: They refused to air the interview, and CBS and everybody 143 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: involved pointing out they never said that to him. They 144 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: simply said, you can't air this unless you offer the 145 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: other side equal time, which is fair. We would all 146 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: do that. Remember during the mayor race, we had Curtis 147 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 1: on all the time. Every couple of weeks we had 148 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: Curtis on. Now, if I ever got a call from 149 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo or the Mom Donnie campaign said we want 150 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: equal time, you'd say yes. Of course, you would say yes. Well, 151 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,840 Speaker 1: why would I say no? Now? They never called because 152 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,760 Speaker 1: they know it's probably not going to be a you know, 153 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,440 Speaker 1: a friendly interview. I mean, we wouldn't be unfriendly, but 154 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:57,720 Speaker 1: we'd ask him tough questions and debate them on. So 155 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: they generally don't ask. But of course would give equal time. 156 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 1: But Colbert, being a totally corrupt sleees ball partisan, wouldn't 157 00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: allow the other side equal time. Jasmine Crockett says they tried, 158 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:14,239 Speaker 1: but they couldn't get anywhere. So even the FCC Commissioner 159 00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 1: on television yesterday pointing out they never ever would say, 160 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 1: you can't have this guy on. You have to offer 161 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: for equal time. It's the right thing to do, it's 162 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 1: the fair thing to do. In fact, whenever if I 163 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 1: went on and said terrible things about somebody and they 164 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: called and said, hey, I want an equal time, of course, 165 00:09:31,400 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 1: you'd give it to him, you know, a major figure, 166 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: a candidate, a politician, of course you would. But Colbert 167 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,440 Speaker 1: being the dirty weasel that he is, so he lied 168 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:46,599 Speaker 1: about all of this and there's not going to be 169 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: any real consequence. He's already fired. There's nothing he can do. 170 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: I guess that's one reason he behaves so badly. He's 171 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: already fired. His last day is in May. He's already fired. 172 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: What can they do to him. They could pull him 173 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: off the air early, but it's you know, it's a 174 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: big show. As far as the production. It's like one 175 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty people work on this show. So if 176 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: you're the network, when you cancel Stephen Colbert or any 177 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 1: network show, you have to leave it on for a 178 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 1: few months. For a lot of reasons. You got to 179 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: figure out what to do with these hundred and twenty 180 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: CBS employees. You try to place them somewhere else. You've 181 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 1: got this massive theater that you got to figure out 182 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 1: what you're going to do with that. Also, you do 183 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: have affiliates. There's a couple hundred TV stations that are affiliates, 184 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 1: and if it's a network show, you can't just drop 185 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,120 Speaker 1: it that night because now what do the affiliates do? 186 00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 1: So you got to figure out something to give them 187 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: or give them time to come up with an alternative plan. Hey, 188 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: there's a big trial going on with Mark Zuckerberg testifying 189 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 1: the company Facebook. It's actually called Meta, but the company 190 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 1: is being accused, like the other social media companies, TikTok 191 00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: and all of that stuff, Instagram, of using these algorithms 192 00:10:55,760 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: to suck you in and make you binge. These algorithms 193 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 1: get you addicted, addicted to TikTok, so you and the 194 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: suit came from somebody, twenty year old woman who said 195 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: it ruined her life. She got so addicted she was 196 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:20,959 Speaker 1: on Instagram or Facebook sixteen hours a day. Listen. I'm 197 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: kind of on Zuckerberg's side on this. Hey, by the way, 198 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 1: the other companies, Google, YouTube, Snap, TikTok all settled the case. 199 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 1: They didn't want to go through this. They cut last 200 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 1: minute deals. But I don't blame a meta. Zuckerberg is 201 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 1: fighting this. Yeah, I'm sure they do arrange the algorithm 202 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 1: to try to keep you on, but everybody does it. Hey, 203 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 1: we do that here, every radio show, every radio station 204 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,839 Speaker 1: does that. Every radio What do you call that forward motion? 205 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: When you go to the commercial. Every newscast on TV, 206 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 1: every TV show they do that. They just don't say, 207 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: here's the commercial and then we'll be back. They say, hey, 208 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: coming up next, exclusive interview with so and so. That's 209 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: to get you to stay through the commercial. And there's 210 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: all kinds of things you do during a show to 211 00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,080 Speaker 1: keep people listening. It's called the teas. You tease them 212 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 1: with something coming up so they don't go away. It's 213 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:18,319 Speaker 1: done everywhere. It's done. It's done in restaurants, it's done 214 00:12:18,360 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: in supermarkets. You know, when you go to the restaurant, 215 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 1: you open the menu, you think, well, they just listed 216 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: what they have. Now, there's all kinds of tricks on 217 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 1: that menu. They lay it out in a certain way 218 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: to trick you into you know, they always put at 219 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: the top of the list something really expensive. Let's say 220 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: it's the entrees. So there's some caviaar something this one 221 00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: hundred and ten dollars. You go, oh my god. Now 222 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: right under it they got the chicken a dish and 223 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:50,560 Speaker 1: that's thirty two dollars. Now when you see that, you go, well, 224 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 1: that's better. I'll get that. When if it was if 225 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: they didn't put that ridiculous expensive thing at the top 226 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,199 Speaker 1: you would have normally you would have said thirty two 227 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 1: dollars or chicken. That's a lot of money. So there's 228 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: all kinds of tricks. You know, when you walk into 229 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,920 Speaker 1: a supermarket, they've laid it out. It's a trap. Everything 230 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: is an algorithm designed to get you to spend more money. 231 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 1: You know, when you walk into any supermarket, the part 232 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 1: you walk into is very brightly lit, and you notice 233 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: wherever you walk in, the first thing that's around you 234 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: are flowers and happy stuff. That's to get you in 235 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: a good mood. Also, you smell the flowers. It gets 236 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: you smelling. Then everybody most people turn right because they're 237 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: right handed, so you'll always come in and turn right. 238 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 1: What do you get when you turn in right? The 239 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: bakery is there, so you smell the bakery. It gets 240 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 1: you hungry, it gets you in the mood, and then 241 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:42,959 Speaker 1: it's all laid out to trap you. You know. They 242 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: put the expensive items eye level on the shelves. There 243 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,000 Speaker 1: are cheaper versions, but they're down below. Eye level is 244 00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: the expensive stuff. And they always put the essentials, the 245 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: things you're probably there for, way in the back, all 246 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 1: the way in the back like eggs, milk all the 247 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: way in the back, so that way you got to 248 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: go through every aisle to get to this stuff. It's 249 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 1: all a trap. Everybody does that restaurant, you know, restaurants 250 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: do that. They've got it all figured out. They know 251 00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: exactly the temperature that'll make you hungry. It's seventy two degrees. 252 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 1: The music is always sixty beats per minute, right to 253 00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: your heartbeat, makes you comfortable, makes your order. It's all 254 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,560 Speaker 1: a trap. I speaking to restaurants. I was in Connecticut 255 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,120 Speaker 1: last weekend. Loon weekends. I go to Connecticut. I Saturday, 256 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 1: I can't find my credit card. Did I lose it? 257 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: Did I drop it? And then I'm thinking where did 258 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: I use it? Well, the night before Friday night, I 259 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: was at Jay House. That's a great restaurant Connecticut, Greenwich, 260 00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:47,600 Speaker 1: probably the hottest restaurant Connecticut. Jay House. I said, I 261 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,000 Speaker 1: ate there, maybe I left it there. I go over there. 262 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:54,040 Speaker 1: I walk in. There's Tony the owner, and I said, hey, 263 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: I think I left my credit card here last night. 264 00:14:57,160 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: I felt really stupid, but he said, hey, let me check. 265 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 1: Go says something to somebody behind the counter. They hand 266 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: him a stack of like thirty five credit cards and 267 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: he's going through. I said, that's how many people leave 268 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,800 Speaker 1: their credit card He says, yeah, every day, it's normal. 269 00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: So I didn't feel so stupid. There was my credit 270 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 1: card in there. So then every restaurant I went to, 271 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 1: I said, you have a stack of credit cards people 272 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: left every restaurant. They pulled it. Yeah, here's one hundred 273 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 1: and twelve these. Everybody leaves credit cards every night. Now, 274 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:30,760 Speaker 1: a year ago, I lost these sunglasses, really nice sunglasses. 275 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: I couldn't. I don't know where. I think maybe I 276 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 1: was eating in a little scal last night. Maybe I 277 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 1: left them there. I went right over there. I said, 278 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 1: did you find a pair of sunglasses? And the manager 279 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: says well, and I start describing. He said, well, no, wait, wait, 280 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,440 Speaker 1: you can look for them yourself. I said, what do 281 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: you mean. He pulls out a box of two hundred 282 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: sunglasses that were left there. So it's not just me unbelievable. 283 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:58,520 Speaker 1: I'm looking through them now.
