The Markbelling Podcast is a 4 00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:14,520 Speaker 1: production of iHeartRadio Podcasts. 5 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 2: I want to open today's podcast by reminding you of 6 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 2: a lawsuit that was filed a few days ago. It's 7 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,000 Speaker 2: gotten a fair amount of attention. The families of two 8 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 2: young people who committed suicide are suing chat GPT. Chat 9 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 2: GPT is by far the largest search engine premise on 10 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:48,640 Speaker 2: artificial intelligence. The individuals who committed suicide have been asking 11 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:53,440 Speaker 2: chat gpt about suicide and suicidal thoughts. Now, as I 12 00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:57,240 Speaker 2: say it's artificial intelligence, they call these things chatbots. In 13 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 2: other words, it's robotic, it's based on program I'm thinking. 14 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:04,759 Speaker 2: And the response is that chat GPT gave them, didn't 15 00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: do anything to talk to them out of suicide. It 16 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 2: essentially validated their suicidal thoughts. We understand why you feel 17 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 2: like this, etc. So lawsuits are being filed here that 18 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 2: rather than use common sense, chat GPT showed no sense whatsoever. 19 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 2: I'm going somewhere with this. Chat ept is based on 20 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 2: automated learning, all sort of sorts of inputting what are 21 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,479 Speaker 2: we saying now to all the young people in our 22 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 2: society who are screwed up or delusional or have bad thoughts, 23 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: instead of knocking them into reality and telling them to 24 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 2: stop thinking this way, all we're doing is validating artificial 25 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 2: intelligence only knows what it's been told. There is a 26 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 2: story in the news right now that I think relates 27 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 2: to this directly, and I haven't heard anybody make this point, 28 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 2: so I'm going to make it first. Have you ever 29 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,680 Speaker 2: been offered an ad on option for premium or white 30 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:16,240 Speaker 2: glove service?

Morgan Geiser 37 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:49,359 Speaker 2: has waived extradition. She's back in Wisconsin from Illinois. I'm 38 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 2: guessing that a lot of you have seen the video 39 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 2: of her arrest in post in Illinois from the body 40 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: cameras of the police officers down there. I'm assuming you've 41 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 2: seen it right. Yeah, everybody's seen. This is a young 42 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: woman now twenty three, who about a decade ago, talked 43 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: a friend of hers into attempting to kill Their goal 44 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 2: was to kill a classmate. They're bout fourteenth time. The 45 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: idea was to kill the classmate. Less than that, actually 46 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 2: kill the classmate to please this slender bad somebody that 47 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: they actually thought was real, some sort of fictional hero. 48 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: Until a few months ago, Morgan Geyser has been in 49 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 2: a statemental facility. That's where she's been sentenced. A judge 50 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 2: earlier in the year ruled she's cured enough to be released. 51 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 2: She had been in a halfway house in Madison wearing 52 00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: a GPS bracelet. We know now quite a bit about 53 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 2: what happened. She met somebody even more screwed up than her, 54 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,119 Speaker 2: apparently at a church. The guy's name is Chad Mecca. 55 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: He's a biological male, and he's a lot older than her. 56 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 2: He's transitioning, or at the very least considers himself trans 57 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 2: She was dabbling in that herself. At one of her 58 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 2: quarter herings earlier in the year, she declared that she's 59 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 2: a male. She no longer declares that way. She's cut 60 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 2: her hair short, she's got a name that could be 61 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 2: male or female. And now she's made a friend with 62 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 2: a guy who's starting to identify the other way, who's 63 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: a lot older than her. According to the reports, he 64 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: was visiting her at the halfway house and would sneak 65 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: in through a window and together they must have made 66 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 2: this plot that she's going to bust out. She cut 67 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 2: off the bracelet and got to pose in Illinois, which 68 00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: is a little bit south of the Chicago metro area. 69 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: They were found by police kind of laying around outside, 70 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 2: apparently out of money, no real plan in mind. The 71 00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 2: body cam video is I thought it was sort of heartbreaking. 72 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 2: Here you have two they're just misfits. You've got this 73 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,360 Speaker 2: older guy who's apparently deciding that he's going to be 74 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 2: a woman. He's got the goofiest hair. He's got like 75 00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 2: short hair, but then he grows it a little bit 76 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 2: long and dyes it pink. And here's her. She was 77 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 2: screwed up, and she thought of Fittle character was real, 78 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,719 Speaker 2: so real that she was taking instructions in the fictional 79 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 2: character to kill a friend. She then spends about a 80 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 2: decade in a mental institution. She gets out. She has 81 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 2: no friend, she has no connections, she has no anything. 82 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,119 Speaker 2: She meets this guy, another odd ball. The two odd 83 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 2: balls bond and they make this run for it. In 84 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,039 Speaker 2: the bodycam video, when the posing Illinois police encountered, they 85 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 2: didn't know how she was. There's just two people that 86 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 2: are sleeping in the backyard on the backside of a building, 87 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: and they question her and she doesn't want to give 88 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:32,839 Speaker 2: up her identity. She doesn't want to give her up 89 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,919 Speaker 2: her identity because of course there's a war dout for 90 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 2: her because she fled Wisconsin, so she's not giving her identity, 91 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 2: not giving her identity and referring to this Chad Mecca 92 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:47,039 Speaker 2: as she and kept saying she didn't know who I was. 93 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 2: She didn't know who I was, She didn't know who 94 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,600 Speaker 2: I was. Trying to make sure that this Chad doesn't 95 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,640 Speaker 2: get in trouble for fleeing with somebody who's not supposed 96 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 2: to flee. My guess is he probably didn't know what 97 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 2: she had done. Bumped into her halfway house. She may 98 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 2: have come up with something and probably didn't fess up 99 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 2: and said, yeah, I tried to stab a friend of 100 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 2: mine to death. She was pretty adamant about that and 101 00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: everything else was true. She eventually gave her identification. The 102 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 2: cops kept saying, well, I don't think you wanted for 103 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 2: murder or anything like that. Well, in fact, it was 104 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,560 Speaker 2: almost murder. It was attempted murder. And she kept saying 105 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: I did something very bad. She didn't know, And you 106 00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: see the two of them standing together, kind of like 107 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: hugging one another. My guess is that this is your 108 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 2: only friend of the world, and it's a fellow person 109 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 2: who's living outside any kind of any kind of anything 110 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 2: that we living outside of normal. I go back to 111 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 2: the chat shept responses given to the people who are suicidal? 112 00:07:58,040 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 2: What kind of treatment has Megan more guys are been 113 00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 2: getting all of these years. I'll tell you what I 114 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: suspect she's been getting. It's the same message that we're 115 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,280 Speaker 2: sending to all the trans people in our society. You're 116 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: perfectly fine validating every idiotic nincompoop choice that they can make, 117 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 2: instead of giving her tough love and telling her what's 118 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: real and what isn't and to get into the real 119 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: world and no, there's not a slender man, there's none 120 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: of this, there's none of that, and then telling her 121 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 2: you're a young woman you're a girl, you're a young woman. 122 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 2: Every odd selection and choice she was making was probably 123 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: reinforced by the shrinks that win a bago when she 124 00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:52,079 Speaker 2: was up there. She gets released, her head is almost shaved. She's, 125 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 2: I guess, still a girl in her own mind. I 126 00:08:53,800 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 2: have to think of that she's a guy and the 127 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 2: first person that she's a trans attracted to is a 128 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,559 Speaker 2: male who's deciding that he's now a t They run off. 129 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 2: There's no real plan, there's no money. She just decides 130 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: that she's gonna bust out. She probably feels totally trapped 131 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:18,560 Speaker 2: in the halfway house before the attempted slender man murder. 132 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 2: What guidance did she get at home? Now? I get that, okay, 133 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:29,240 Speaker 2: my kids into unusual things, and who am I to judge? 134 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 2: You're raising a murderer. Has anybody at any point in 135 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 2: Morgan Geyser's life tried to straighten her out by redirecting 136 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 2: her to reality. We live in a world in which 137 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:49,200 Speaker 2: the misfits have now validated their misfitness. There's nothing wrong. 138 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 2: I'm okay, you're okay. Well you're not okay. You're miserably 139 00:09:54,280 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 2: unhappy and you're dysfunctional. I don't believe everyone in psychiatry 140 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: and counseling is a quack, but I think a lot 141 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: of them are. Some of them their own lives are 142 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: more screwed up than the people that they're treating. I 143 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: think Morgan Geyser has been victimized by bad guidance her 144 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 2: entire life. You heard her, I mean, I think she's 145 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: probably still dangerous because she's not tethered to any reality. 146 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: But I can't honestly say it's her own fault. When 147 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 2: you saw her in the video, she just seemed like 148 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 2: a nice, mixed up kid who finally found somebody that 149 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 2: she could bond with. Another misfit in society, pink hair 150 00:10:54,400 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 2: coming off of a crew cut, a mail hanger. We 151 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,200 Speaker 2: can't live in a world in which we try to 152 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 2: put every round circle into a square box. But there 153 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 2: are certain things that people are doing that are never 154 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 2: going to lead to happiness, And instead of telling them 155 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 2: that it's okay, maybe we need to go back to 156 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: understanding that a lot of the attitudes and beliefs and 157 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,960 Speaker 2: weirdnesses that people have are actual problems that they need 158 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 2: to be talked out of, not have reinforced. I don't 159 00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 2: think the people at Winnebago have done. Morgan, guys are 160 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 2: a damn bit of good. How good they She's acting 161 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 2: just as weird as she did ten years ago when 162 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: she thought that slender Man wanted her to kill somebody. 163 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,160 Speaker 2: How could we even say that that's her fault. Imagine 164 00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 2: you're a kid and you know you don't fit in, 165 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 2: so you decide to dabble in really weird stuff and 166 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 2: you start believing weird things. Nobody talks you out of it, 167 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 2: nobody sits you down. You don't have any parents who 168 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 2: try to redirect you in any kind of proper way 169 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 2: toward right and wrong and morality and God. Then you 170 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 2: do something terrible and they punish you forward and you 171 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 2: go to a mental institution. And what did they ever 172 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 2: do to redirect her? We know this, there's probably not 173 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 2: a moment that she was exposed to any religion whatsoever. 174 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 2: We do know that she went to a church in 175 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: Madison when she was at the Halfway House. That's at 176 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 2: least good. But who does she meet this She meets 177 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 2: this guy, and again I don't know what kind of 178 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,439 Speaker 2: a church it is. Is it one of these wicked 179 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 2: churches or is it a legitimate church? 180 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:40,439 Speaker 3: It. 181 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 2: Everybody on the left considers us bigots if we try 182 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 2: to suggest that people are behaving weirdly, how are you 183 00:12:50,520 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 2: helping them? Telling people no, telling people not, telling people no, 184 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: don't do this to your life, and directing them toward 185 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 2: a path that might find actual long term fulfillment. We 186 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 2: don't do any of that anymore. As for this Chad Mecca, 187 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,839 Speaker 2: they released him in Illinois on no charges, and it 188 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 2: doesn't sound to me like he did anything illegal. Did 189 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 2: he know that she's not alive? I mean she cut 190 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 2: an ankle bracelet on an electronic monitoring bracelet. Off probably 191 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: knew that. Did he know what she did? Don't know that? 192 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,599 Speaker 2: Does he know the rules on her? I'm guessing she 193 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 2: didn't fess up to it. This looks like another just 194 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:39,079 Speaker 2: sad case of somebody not fitting in, and instead of 195 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,280 Speaker 2: being told no, you're a guy, decides that he's a woman. 196 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 2: Figured maybe I'll be happier as a woman because I'm 197 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 2: completely miserably unhappy, can't find anybody to connect with. So 198 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 2: he sees another sad soul to people who have nothing 199 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 2: going on in their lives, so they attach and they bond. 200 00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 2: Who are we helping with all of this, I'll contend nobody. 201 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,199 Speaker 2: I want to move to another story that I find related. 202 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 2: I've had an opinion for years, and I love this one. 203 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 2: You know, people like me will have these opinions based 204 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 2: on anecdotal eleven are quack. You don't know anything about this, 205 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 2: and then years later you start to see the consensus 206 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 2: moving around in that direction. This is a major story 207 00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 2: that appeared earlier in the week in the Wall Street Journal. 208 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 2: When I say major, it goes on and on and 209 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 2: on and on. It's a hell of a story. The 210 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:40,920 Speaker 2: story is reporting on what it states is overwhelming evidence 211 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 2: of a link between kids who are put on the 212 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 2: ADHD pills becoming long term drug addicts. The story reports 213 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 2: that young people who are prescribed ADHD medication are far 214 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: more likely to become a day did to hard narcotics 215 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:08,840 Speaker 2: later in life for many kids. Hey, this is the headline. 216 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 2: For many kids. Add ADHD pills kick off a drug cascade. 217 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 2: Children prescribed met the medication often wind up on other 218 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 2: powerful drugs. Again, I'm not saying that none of these 219 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: drugs have a use. You've got these kids that have 220 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: attention deficit disorder and they put them on the riddle 221 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 2: in on the whole thing. But does anybody ever write 222 00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 2: any of this, think about the long haul? How do 223 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: they get off? And given that the only normal that 224 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 2: they then have for the first you know, fifteen to 225 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 2: the first twenty years of their life, is this normal 226 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: under medication, they have to gravitate to more medication. They've 227 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 2: never lived a non medicated moment in their lives, maybe 228 00:15:54,640 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 2: from seven years old on. I've been on this repeatedly. 229 00:16:00,920 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: We're going to come to the conclusion about pot and 230 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:07,480 Speaker 2: the same thing. There are so many cases of people 231 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:11,280 Speaker 2: on pot becoming extremely violent. I think that there's a 232 00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 2: link between pot and the people who want to do 233 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: trans I think the pot is so powerful that it's 234 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: make the linking pot and schizophreny is real. Again, it 235 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 2: doesn't mean everybody uses pot, gets said, but it is 236 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: a side effect that is there. I don't know this, 237 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 2: but I would not be shocked if Morgan Geyser was 238 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,800 Speaker 2: popping pills before a slender Man occurred, and that they 239 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 2: were popping her pills right and left when she was 240 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,240 Speaker 2: in the shrink house up there in Oshkosh. And again, 241 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 2: these pills are helpful for many people. But go back 242 00:16:43,280 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 2: to COVID. I kept preaching against one size fits all, 243 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 2: and then we know with regard to these kids, that 244 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 2: some of these kids sell the pills that they get 245 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 2: and then the dosage thing, take one a day every day, 246 00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,880 Speaker 2: the same amount every day. You think that that's what's 247 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: actually going on in life. These pills are dealing with 248 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 2: the chemicals that are affecting your brain and move jay. 249 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:11,560 Speaker 2: What could go wrong? And again I'm not indicting them overall, 250 00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 2: and not indicting everyone that prescribes them. But when you 251 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 2: take a look at the lot of the problems that 252 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,159 Speaker 2: we have with the lack of motivation and the tendency 253 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,440 Speaker 2: towards violence, and the level of depression, and people that 254 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 2: seem to have every I mean, the millennials, they thought 255 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 2: that they were being raised in the worst generation in 256 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 2: American history. Went by every measure you could imagine, it 257 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 2: was the best. How were they feeling so screwed up? 258 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: Is it because they were all on some kind of pill. 259 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,640 Speaker 2: And now they've got a bunch of hucksters out there 260 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:46,920 Speaker 2: telling use cannabis, use this, use that after the ADHD pills, 261 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 2: and then when the pot doesn't do enough, then it's 262 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 2: the opioids, that it's the myth. Anyway, it was like 263 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 2: Cranks and the Right questioning this over the years because 264 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 2: we were noticing, well, something's going on, what's causing it? 265 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 2: If I had more time in this segment and I don't, 266 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 2: I talk about the things that must be leading us 267 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:11,959 Speaker 2: forward autism, I think it's all connected. My point now 268 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 2: is the Wall Street Journal, which is about as conventional 269 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,679 Speaker 2: thinking as you can find, they're now on this story. 270 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: I hope RFK lasts in his job because I think 271 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 2: that he's somebody open minded enough to be willing to 272 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 2: explore things like this. But if you go back and 273 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 2: take a look at every dysfunction we have, it's the drugs, 274 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 2: the drugs that drugs, the drugs, and I'm not talking 275 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 2: crack and all of that stuff. I mean drugs that 276 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 2: are sold legally by big Pharma, big Farmer. You know 277 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 2: how much money they're making off of Riddlin and the 278 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 2: classes of drugs like like the Riddlin. They have every 279 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 2: reason dot to tell you that they're perfectly fine, no 280 00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: side effects, nothing to worry about it. In the same 281 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 2: way that that's the message that they gave us with 282 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 2: regard to COVID and the same region that they talk 283 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 2: us off of generic drugs that don't cost much of anything. 284 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:03,960 Speaker 2: But I get that they're the drug companies. They're in 285 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 2: it to make a buck. They want to tell you 286 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 2: that the pill that we're selling is good and this 287 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 2: one or this cheap one over here is no good. 288 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,880 Speaker 2: The rest of us in society have no particular reason 289 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:16,160 Speaker 2: to accept them as gospel. You have too many doctors 290 00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:18,359 Speaker 2: that are on the path of the drug companies because 291 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 2: of the incentives that they're giving for prescribing, and then 292 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 2: the people that are in the public health field easily swayed. 293 00:19:30,080 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 2: Every kid is mixed up. I mean, when I was 294 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 2: a kid, it wasn't the crappy mean things that people 295 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,120 Speaker 2: post on the internet about. You know what, I think 296 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,280 Speaker 2: you're probably the same thing when people when kids are 297 00:19:41,320 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 2: mean to one another in the sixth or seventh grade, 298 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: what were they doing and what form did that bullying 299 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:55,120 Speaker 2: take place? You're gonna you get close to these things 300 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 2: and then get farther away. You're like the golfer. You're 301 00:19:57,920 --> 00:20:00,200 Speaker 2: twelve feet away from the hole, and you may the 302 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: putt and you get to four feet and now you 303 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 2: got to tap in but you hit it two hundred 304 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 2: and now it's seven feet and you just kick you 305 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 2: getting farther and farther away. It was no Remember the 306 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 2: notes that were passed in the class the notes, the notes, 307 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 2: the notes. You don't you didn't have that in your 308 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 2: school all. You don't recall that. Well, maybe that was 309 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: already open the time you were in there. The girls 310 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,720 Speaker 2: had passed notes like in the fifth and sixtory notes, 311 00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,960 Speaker 2: this one's this it you know whoshi and you know 312 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: the notes notes, notes, because there's nothing else to communicate, 313 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 2: and you couldn't. Maybe by the time you were in school, 314 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 2: you could just out and out talk right in the classroom, 315 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 2: so they didn't have to pass the notes. So, I mean, 316 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: kids pressure. Every kid thinks that the thing that they're 317 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 2: facing is the end of the world. I mean, why 318 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,919 Speaker 2: would a fifteen year old commit suicide? You got seventy 319 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 2: five eighty years of life in front of your things 320 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 2: to get better. Do you ever just think it's so worse. 321 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: I'm just glad they didn't have some pill that somebody 322 00:20:49,600 --> 00:21:01,399 Speaker 2: would have thought of to give me. Who knows. We 323 00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: prescribe things without ever considering the long term ramification of 324 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 2: them because we don't know the long term because they're 325 00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:13,879 Speaker 2: mostly new. But if you're looking for why things that 326 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 2: never existed really before are so common, now, ask yourself 327 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 2: what changed. You will inevidently find that somebody was making 328 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 2: a buck off the thing that changed, and that the 329 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,280 Speaker 2: media and the left was shilling for that bad thing 330 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 2: to this day. I don't know if the COVID vaccines 331 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,760 Speaker 2: were any good or I still don't know, But if 332 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 2: in fifteen to seventeen years everybody's immune system is going 333 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,360 Speaker 2: to be shot, I think you can cook back and say, well, 334 00:21:43,440 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 2: maybe we shouldn't have been messing with our immune system, 335 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 2: or maybe we should. But whenever anybody tries to ask 336 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 2: any questions, I'm sure the same thing happened when the 337 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 2: Riddlin and all this stuff was being prescribed right and left. 338 00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:57,200 Speaker 2: Parents were just told this is what your kid needs, 339 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: this is what your kid needs. In some cases maybe 340 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 2: it was, but I know dog gone well that in 341 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 2: many cases it wasn't. You don't know anything. Who are 342 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 2: you to question? You're listening to the Markdelling podcast. This 343 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,520 Speaker 2: is the Mark Belling Podcast. Interesting column on the Wall 344 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 2: Street Journal by Jason Riley. He's dealing with the juggling 345 00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:34,400 Speaker 2: act that President Trump is trying to perform. Trump ran, 346 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 2: as we all know, Mega America first, now, he asked 347 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:42,480 Speaker 2: the governor, and going back to a discussion point that 348 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: I made in the earlier segment, one size fits all. 349 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:52,119 Speaker 2: Trump is also somebody who just prides himself on common sense, 350 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,879 Speaker 2: and sometimes his common sense idea doesn't fit in with 351 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 2: the mega doctrinaire ideology. The point of this column deals 352 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 2: with the H one B visus. I want to share 353 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,639 Speaker 2: a portion of it. And by the way, I agree 354 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 2: with Trump. I think that we need H one B 355 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 2: visas for specific jobs in our economy, that we do 356 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 2: not have enough Americans with the skills to perform them. 357 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 2: I disagree with the people who say that we do. 358 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:27,639 Speaker 2: I think it's apparent that we don't. You have the 359 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 2: CEO of Ford come out and say that they're are 360 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 2: from one hundred twenty thousand dollars a year for mechanics. 361 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 2: By the way, people heard that and they think that 362 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 2: I'm talking about people who work in the audio. No, 363 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,960 Speaker 2: the mechanics who work at the factory, in other words, 364 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 2: high skill mechanics. Of course we have a shortage of them. 365 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 2: But boy o boy ol boy do. We do not 366 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 2: have a shortage of people who majored in women's studies 367 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 2: in college and every other kakamaimi thing for which they're 368 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 2: so jobs. Here's the Jason Riley piece. He writes, it 369 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 2: has become unfashionable on the political right to say nice 370 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 2: things about foreign nationals, even the ones who came here lawfully. 371 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,680 Speaker 2: Just ask Donald Trump, who has struggled to convince the 372 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:20,800 Speaker 2: megabase that legal immigration is a net benefit to America. 373 00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,920 Speaker 2: To America, welcome to my world, mister President. Part of 374 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 2: the problem has been White House inconsistency on the issue. 375 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 2: Trump's position on illegal immigration isn't in doubt, but he 376 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 2: can seem indecisive, even self contradictory when discussing migration policies 377 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: for those who play by the rules. Last year, for example, 378 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: he sided with Elon Musk, a staunch proponent of the 379 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: H one B work visa program typically used by foreign 380 00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 2: professionals and fields such as engineering, technology, and medicine. Musk 381 00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: said he would go to war to defend migration for 382 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 2: skilled workers. Quote the reason I'm in America along with 383 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 2: so many critical people who build SpaceX, Texla, Tesla and 384 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 2: others or of other companies that made America strong is 385 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:10,720 Speaker 2: because of H one B, Musk wrote in a social 386 00:25:10,760 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 2: media post in December. Trump soon after told The New 387 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 2: York Post that he too has quote always been in 388 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,400 Speaker 2: favor of the program. Now it goes on. I want 389 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 2: to make the following point. The problem with H one 390 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 2: B visas is I think they're wrong in some fields 391 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 2: but needed in others. It's the same problem with wholesale 392 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:35,680 Speaker 2: legal immigration. For example, when we start resettling legally so 393 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: called refugees from countries in which the people hate the 394 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 2: United States, I think the visa should be applied. This 395 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 2: is me now for people who are working in fields 396 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,480 Speaker 2: in which they have a skill that we need, but 397 00:25:50,680 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 2: not for anybody else. So again, is legal immigration good. 398 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 2: It depends. Things do depend And I think that Trump 399 00:25:59,680 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 2: is trying to show some common sense here and say, Okay, 400 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 2: we need H one B visas for text, but maybe 401 00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,600 Speaker 2: we don't need to take in a zillion more refugees 402 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 2: from Somalia who want to come to the United States 403 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 2: and change everything that we have going on in our world. 404 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: Back to the column was the White House suggesting that 405 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 2: hiring practices of the president's own businesses undercut the wages 406 00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 2: and employment opportunities of US workers, and threat in national security. 407 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 2: It's hard to tell. What we do know is that 408 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 2: since signing the order, Trump has made several statements in 409 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 2: support of immigrant labor. The piece goes on and then 410 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:38,239 Speaker 2: points out that this is unsettling to some in MAGA world. Now, 411 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 2: the thing about MEGA is MEGA is about ninety million people, 412 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 2: and they have different views on all sorts of things. 413 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,719 Speaker 2: All you though have to do is talk to an 414 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 2: employer who owns a business or as part of charge 415 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,120 Speaker 2: of hiring in a business that can't find qualified workers. 416 00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,919 Speaker 2: At a time in which the economy seems to be slowly, 417 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 2: we have shortages in any number of areas for all 418 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: sorts of reasons. I'll add a point that nobody ever adds. Again, 419 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 2: the pot is a big part of this. Many of 420 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 2: the fields in which their shortages are fields the drug test, 421 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 2: because you can have somebody operating high tech equipment or 422 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: dangerous machinery when they're stoned. You have so many Americans, 423 00:27:26,760 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 2: and in so many states where they've legalized the pot, 424 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 2: that they've made themselves either ineligible or don't desire to 425 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 2: go into the fields in which they're going to be 426 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:43,240 Speaker 2: drug tested. In the meantime, the behind the scenes of 427 00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 2: the Trump administration following post on social media, Susie Wiles 428 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 2: reportedly on the hot seat is Trump's chief of staff. 429 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 2: Susie Wiles, who was his campaign manager, is clearly and 430 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,679 Speaker 2: you saw when she was in the champaign. Susie Wiles 431 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 2: is the person that tried to keep Trump focused. And 432 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 2: I'm sure Susie Wills right now was the one that 433 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 2: is trying to keep all the mega types away from Trump. 434 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 2: I talk a lot about how Trump is his own 435 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,040 Speaker 2: good cop, bad cop and dealing with others, but in 436 00:28:14,160 --> 00:28:16,200 Speaker 2: terms of his own staff, he needs a chief of 437 00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 2: staff who's going to be the bad cop. Many people feel, however, 438 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: that Trump and I recall the same thing happened with 439 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 2: Reagan's a saying in the Reagan administration, Let Reagan be Reagan. 440 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 2: Reagan had two sets of advisors in his administration. He 441 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 2: had kind of the true believer, a true believer California 442 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 2: conservatives who came with him, and then he had the 443 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 2: pragmatic James Baker types who were more traditional Republicans, and 444 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,840 Speaker 2: a lot of conservatives are frustrated that Reagan was wandering 445 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 2: off too much into the middle and into the pragmatic 446 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,760 Speaker 2: because he was listening to these old school of Washington advisors. 447 00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 2: My own opinion is the chief of staff a chief 448 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 2: of staff that Trump hass has to block off both sides. 449 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 2: You don't want him going all Washington. On the other hand, 450 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 2: you don't want him to go all Marjorie Taylor Green. 451 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,040 Speaker 2: We still do have a country to run. I listen 452 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 2: to some of the things that Tucker Carlson says, and 453 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: I think that he's lost his marbles. Trump spending too 454 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 2: much time on foreign policy. What he's supposed to let 455 00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 2: the world go to hell. There's no reason why you 456 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:25,840 Speaker 2: can't do both. What We're not better off if there's 457 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 2: a peace deal in the Middle East, we're not better off. 458 00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: If he can finally bring peace to Ukraine and Russia, 459 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,800 Speaker 2: of course we're better off. And it certainly affects us. 460 00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 2: A world going to hell affects us badly. So you've 461 00:29:42,800 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 2: got Trump in here, who I think is just hell 462 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 2: bent on being a successful president, and he realizes that 463 00:29:51,080 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: some things you can't always be stridently ideological on because 464 00:29:54,920 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 2: as I said earlier, it does depend We have tens 465 00:30:01,400 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 2: of millions of Americans who know how to play computer 466 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 2: video games that don't have a clue as to how 467 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:10,880 Speaker 2: to do software coding. The shortages in that field are incredible. 468 00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 2: Walk past one of the big downtown Milwaukee higher office 469 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:16,920 Speaker 2: high rises. You know who works on the hi rise? 470 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 2: To the tech people? 471 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:17,720 Speaker 3: Do? 472 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 2: I mean? I live near Northwestern Mutual. You can't tell 473 00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: everybody's ethnicity from them walking down the street, but it 474 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:29,200 Speaker 2: surely looks like a lot of people from India are there. 475 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 2: Why are they hiring people from India? Who else is 476 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 2: going to do all of these jobs? All the people 477 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 2: that have three hundred thousand dollars in student loan debt 478 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: while they're running around with their English literature major, they're 479 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 2: social work majors? Or are they just flunked out and 480 00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:57,959 Speaker 2: they're not trained at anything. Let me turn my attention 481 00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 2: to the Democratic lawmakers that are encouraging American troops to 482 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 2: disobey illegal orders. The FBI is now beginning a criminal 483 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 2: investigation into this couple of things with regard to this story. 484 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 2: I know what they're up to the Left is trying 485 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 2: to sow chaos in this country. You can't have the 486 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 2: military not follow the order of the president. You can't 487 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 2: have the military not follow any orders. There is a 488 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 2: law in this country, or at least a standard, that 489 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:36,320 Speaker 2: the troops are not to follow illegal orders. This is 490 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: tested during the Mayli massacre and other things. What illegal 491 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 2: orders did the six Democrats refer to? They didn't say. 492 00:31:50,840 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 2: The reason they didn't say is Trump hasn't issued any 493 00:31:53,240 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 2: illegal orders. Unless the Supreme Court rules that something can't 494 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 2: be done, the order is perceived to be legal. Some 495 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 2: interesting comments extended threads on social media from Pete Heg Sith, 496 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: the Secretary of Defense. Get that here first, it's in 497 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 2: the Department of War, of course, Haig Sith is the Secretary. 498 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:27,840 Speaker 2: The Department of War has received serious allegations of misconducting 499 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 2: against Captain Mark Kelly. Kelly is the Senator from Arizona. 500 00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 2: But he's a retired naval officer. By the way, retire 501 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 2: doesn't mean you can do whatever you want, as they'll 502 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 2: point out, in accordance with the Uniform Code of Military 503 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 2: Justice and then it mentions the Codecitation number and other 504 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:48,479 Speaker 2: applicable regulations. A thorough review of these allegations has been 505 00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 2: initiated to determine further actions which may include recall to 506 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 2: active duty for court martial proceedings or administrative measures. This 507 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 2: matter will be handled in compliance with my military law, 508 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 2: insuring due process and impartiality. Further official comments will be 509 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: limited to preserve the integrity of the proceedings. Then from 510 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 2: Hegsas the video made by the seditious Sex was despicable, reckless, 511 00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 2: and false. Encouraging our warriors to ignore the orders of 512 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 2: their commanders undermines every aspect of good order and discipline. 513 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 2: Their foolish screen shows doubt and confusion, which only puts 514 00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:36,520 Speaker 2: our warriors in danger. Five of the six individuals in 515 00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 2: that video do not fall under the Department of War jurisdiction. Kelly, 516 00:33:41,280 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 2: of course does as announced. The Department is reviewing his 517 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 2: statements and actions, which were addressed directly to all troops 518 00:33:50,200 --> 00:33:54,560 Speaker 2: while explicitly using his rank and service affiliation, lending the 519 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 2: appearance of authority to his words. Kelly's conduct brings this 520 00:33:58,960 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 2: credit upon the armed forces and will be addressed appropriately. 521 00:34:03,160 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 2: And then a day later from Hesith the despicable video 522 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 2: ordering telling troops to refuse illegal orders may seem harmless 523 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:22,480 Speaker 2: to civilians, but it carries a different weight inside the military. 524 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 2: This was a politically motivated influence operation. It never named 525 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 2: a specific illegal order. It created ambiguity rather than clarity. 526 00:34:35,160 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 2: It used carefully scripted, legal sounding language. It subtly reformed 527 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 2: military obedience around partisan distrust instead of established legal processes. 528 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 2: In the military. Vague rhetoric and ambiguity undermines trust, creates 529 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,440 Speaker 2: hesitation in the chain of command, and erodes cohesion. The 530 00:34:56,560 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 2: military already has clear procedures for handling unlawful orders. It 531 00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:05,680 Speaker 2: does not need political actors injecting doubt into an already 532 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 2: clear chain of command. As veterans of various sorts, the 533 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 2: seditious six knew exactly what they were doing, so in 534 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 2: doubt through a politically motivated influence operation. I want you 535 00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:23,239 Speaker 2: to imagine for a moment during the eight years of 536 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 2: Obama in which all sorts of controversial foreign policy actions 537 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 2: were taken. Can you imagine if people on the right 538 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: urged individuals in the military to disobey orders, you would 539 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 2: never have heard the end of it. Everybody knows that 540 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 2: Trump is the commander in chief, and everybody knows that 541 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: the commander in chief has broad discretion in the use 542 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 2: of the American milistic in the what the left has 543 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 2: never accepted is Trump's legitimacy. By now taking this to 544 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 2: the military, they have the potential of upsetting the entire 545 00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 2: apple cart. If the military doesn't have chain of command 546 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,080 Speaker 2: where you have to do what you're told, we don't 547 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 2: have a military. Can you imagine on D Day if 548 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 2: people have the notion that you can question orders. One 549 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:32,360 Speaker 2: other point that I want to make, there's this constant 550 00:36:32,400 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 2: from the left changing of the subject or the things 551 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,439 Speaker 2: that they go after Trump on, in part because nothing 552 00:36:37,520 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 2: ever sticks. It's this, then it's that, then it's the 553 00:36:40,480 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 2: other thing, and then it's off to this, and now 554 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 2: we're going to go after the military and tell them 555 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:48,160 Speaker 2: to disobey orders. It doesn't stop, but it has the 556 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 2: cumulative effect of creating unnecessary chaos. None of it is 557 00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 2: aimed at addressing actual problems. In the meantime, the actual, 558 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: most grotesque disobedience of orders is when Joe Biden's administration 559 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,920 Speaker 2: for four years refused to enforce the law and allowed 560 00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 2: individuals by the millions to come into the country illegally. 561 00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 2: That was the mass ignoring of orders at ignoring of 562 00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 2: the law, and that was done by Democrats who continue 563 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,360 Speaker 2: to argue that Biden had the discretion to do whatever 564 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 2: it is that he wanted, and that's an instance in 565 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 2: which we clearly know what the law was. You can't 566 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 2: come into the United States illegally, and they allowed people 567 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 2: and mass to do it. Best case scenario, they told 568 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,280 Speaker 2: him to show up for hearing that would be scheduled 569 00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 2: ninety seven years from now. I know it's only Wednesday 570 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 2: that they were releasing the podcast, but the football weekend 571 00:37:51,160 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 2: starts early, so we're going to do our weekly football 572 00:37:53,120 --> 00:37:55,760 Speaker 2: preview and points spread picks next on the Markedelling podcast. 573 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:02,880 Speaker 2: This is the podcast.

TKY two oh is the discou insight that 599 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,360 Speaker 2: you can put in forget twenty percent off. Let's preview 600 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,439 Speaker 2: some first of all college football for this weekend. Let's 601 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 2: start with Minnesota and Wisconsin, which has suddenly become a 602 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 2: really interesting game. The Badgers have turned their season around. 603 00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 2: They've now beaten two ranked teams in the last three weeks. 604 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 2: Their defense is as good as any in the country. 605 00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 2: The fans have now made it a habit of running 606 00:39:42,880 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 2: the field. I guess that's what happens when you start 607 00:39:44,719 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: so terrible. At the beginning of the year. They play Minnesota, 608 00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,280 Speaker 2: which is a traditional rivalry game. They play for the axe, 609 00:39:52,440 --> 00:39:54,600 Speaker 2: you know, Wisconsin and one that acts a zillion years 610 00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 2: in a row. Minnesota has had it for two seasons 611 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,920 Speaker 2: in a row. Luke Fickel has never When I watched 612 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 2: the end of the Wisconsin Illinois game, a game in 613 00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 2: which Wisconsin just dominated Illinois defensively and played well enough 614 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,880 Speaker 2: on offense, I just thought, let down, they're going to 615 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:16,160 Speaker 2: phone it in against Minnesota. But Wisconsin does have something 616 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,879 Speaker 2: to play for here, given you know that that ax 617 00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,080 Speaker 2: is a big thing, they do seem emotionally have turned 618 00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 2: the corner. But Minnesota is a pretty good team. Give 619 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 2: you give me your thoughts on this game. 620 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:30,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, this is an interesting matchup. First of all, like 621 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 3: you said, Minnesota's won as of recent They've won three 622 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,640 Speaker 3: or the last four years. Prior to that, Wisconsin had 623 00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 3: won sixteen of the previous seventeen years, so they had 624 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 3: dominated for well. 625 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 2: I had said that they can just keep the ax 626 00:40:42,160 --> 00:40:44,520 Speaker 2: in Madison, but that's finally turned around a bit. 627 00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:48,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, and even in Minnesota. Wisconsin's won nine in the 628 00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 3: last ten meetings in Minnesota, so they've even been successful 629 00:40:52,200 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 3: in Minnesota. Lowest total on the board in college football 630 00:40:55,680 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 3: this week thirty seven and a half LSU. Oklahoma's close again. 631 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 3: Two really good defenses, too bad offenses. Basically, in this situation, 632 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:08,000 Speaker 3: I really wish for Wisconsin's sake this game was being 633 00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 3: played in Madison, because Minnesota's got one of the most 634 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,440 Speaker 3: drastic home road dichotomies in the country. They're six and 635 00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:16,879 Speaker 3: zero at home. They've won by an average of eight 636 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 3: points per game at home. They're zero to four on 637 00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 3: the road and lost man average of twenty five points 638 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,359 Speaker 3: per game on the road. They're just a bad road team. 639 00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:26,799 Speaker 3: Interesting thing in this game, Mark the line opened three 640 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 3: two and a half Minnesota and it got knocked down 641 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,080 Speaker 3: to one and a half. So the money coming in 642 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:35,520 Speaker 3: on Wisconsin in this game, and there's an outside outside chance. 643 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 3: So Wisconsin wins this game, they could go to a 644 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:40,440 Speaker 3: bowl game. I don't think it's gonna happen, but they 645 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,040 Speaker 3: they go down to five and seventeams. If there's not 646 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 3: enough six. 647 00:41:43,680 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, if they're not enough six and six, they grab 648 00:41:45,600 --> 00:41:48,640 Speaker 2: five and seven teams in Wisconsin, ending strong could get 649 00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,800 Speaker 2: one of them. End. You know, those lesser bawls become 650 00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,880 Speaker 2: so goofed up because guys go into the transfer portal 651 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:56,440 Speaker 2: and you don't know who's gonna play, and half the 652 00:41:56,480 --> 00:41:59,480 Speaker 2: coaches are gone. But Luke Fikel did say, if we're 653 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,879 Speaker 2: invited to, we're gonna go. We're never going to turn 654 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 2: out a chance to play a game. I think it's unlikely. 655 00:42:04,840 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 2: But more important than that is if they can win 656 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 2: the season by beating Minnesota. You can't say that it's 657 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 2: a successful season, but you can certainly say that the 658 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,840 Speaker 2: second half of the season ended on a major upnoe. 659 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,880 Speaker 2: I think Wisconsin turned the season around in a loss 660 00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:24,120 Speaker 2: when they went to Oregon and held Oregon to twenty 661 00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:26,360 Speaker 2: eight points twenty one for most of the game. I 662 00:42:26,440 --> 00:42:28,520 Speaker 2: thought that that was the turnaround for their season and 663 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 2: the game against Illinois. Illinois has a really good offense 664 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 2: and a good quarterback and they were just overwhelmed by 665 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,480 Speaker 2: Wisconsin's defense, including you know, a senior lineman Peterson, who 666 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:44,239 Speaker 2: had not shown much all season was just dominant. They 667 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 2: got one of their linebackers back to other linebackers real quickly. 668 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 2: Have you heard whether or not Mason Posea, the superstar 669 00:42:49,840 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 2: freshman linebacker, will play. He got knocked out at the 670 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 2: end of the Illinois game. He's a really important key 671 00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: to Wisconsin. 672 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, they don't know. As as of earlier today, 673 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,080 Speaker 3: it's still questionable. I might be a game time thing, 674 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,320 Speaker 3: So as of now, I don't know, but there is 675 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:05,400 Speaker 3: a chance he's gonna play. 676 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:08,400 Speaker 2: In that game. Now, let's turn our attention to Ohio 677 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 2: State Michigan. This is another game that's about as interesting 678 00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:15,600 Speaker 2: as it gets. Ohio State is either the best or 679 00:43:15,640 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 2: the second best team in the country. Indiana's right up there. 680 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,960 Speaker 2: I guess with them. Ohio State won the national championship 681 00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 2: last year. They have killed everybody they played. I think 682 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,800 Speaker 2: their closest game was Week one against Texas and that 683 00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:32,480 Speaker 2: was fourteen to seven, but that was a dominant fourteen 684 00:43:32,560 --> 00:43:36,200 Speaker 2: to seven. They've slaughtered everybody. Michigan this year does not 685 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 2: have much of an offense at all, decent defense, but 686 00:43:39,560 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 2: you have this Michigan. Since Ryan Day has been the 687 00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 2: coach of Ohio State, Michigan has Ohio State's number. Last year, 688 00:43:46,680 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 2: when Ohio State won the National championship, they lost at 689 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: home to Michigan, and the Ohio State I swear they 690 00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 2: still wanted to fire Ryan Day even though they won 691 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 2: a national championship. I mean, it's just the most bizizre 692 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,120 Speaker 2: thing in a weirdo fact with these Ohio State fans 693 00:44:03,160 --> 00:44:06,279 Speaker 2: that they seem to care more about winning this game 694 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:10,120 Speaker 2: and whether or not they won a national championship. Ohio 695 00:44:10,200 --> 00:44:12,520 Speaker 2: State's favorite in the game by ten points because they're 696 00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 2: way better, but it's at Michigan, and Ohio State has 697 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:19,839 Speaker 2: had a just incredibly difficult time beating Michigan even when 698 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:22,960 Speaker 2: they're better. But you know that's the past, and part 699 00:44:23,040 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 2: of me thinks that becomes the motivation is really on 700 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:29,760 Speaker 2: the side of Ohio State. I mean, they've been thinking 701 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 2: about this game for a clear year after what happened 702 00:44:33,560 --> 00:44:36,480 Speaker 2: last year. They're the way better team. Part of me 703 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:38,520 Speaker 2: thinks that they could go into Michigan and get this 704 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:41,560 Speaker 2: monkey off their back and really smoke them and hit 705 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 2: into the game next week with against Indiana. What do 706 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:44,879 Speaker 2: you think. 707 00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 3: There's a couple things on this game. First of all, 708 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:49,480 Speaker 3: like you mentioned Michigan's won four games in a row 709 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,520 Speaker 3: against Ohio State, and they've outscored Ohio State by forty 710 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 3: six points in those four games. Yet they've been an 711 00:44:56,160 --> 00:44:58,879 Speaker 3: underdog in three of those four games, so they've really 712 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 3: Last year they were eighteen point underdog and won the 713 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 3: game and mission and Ohio State was playing to the 714 00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 3: Big Ten championship game. The one thing that worries me 715 00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:10,399 Speaker 3: a little bit about Ohio State you mentioned it, They've 716 00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:12,399 Speaker 3: had zero adversity this year in the Big Ten. They've 717 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:14,720 Speaker 3: won every game by eighteen points or more. What happens 718 00:45:14,719 --> 00:45:17,200 Speaker 3: if this game's a seven point three point game in 719 00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. They haven't had any of that this year. 720 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 3: None of it. Might get a little tight in that situation. 721 00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 3: They played an easy Big Ten schedule. The last four 722 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 3: teams mark are seven and twenty five combined in the 723 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:30,960 Speaker 3: Big Ten. There are three good wins in the Big 724 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,120 Speaker 3: Ten were Illinois, who's not very good, Minnesota who's not 725 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:37,640 Speaker 3: very good, in Washington, so they haven't played a great 726 00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:41,400 Speaker 3: situation as far as the Big Ten goes. Another thing here, 727 00:45:41,440 --> 00:45:42,920 Speaker 3: if we want to just quickly look at the Big 728 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:48,360 Speaker 3: Ten championship scenarios, same situation last year Ohio Ohio State's 729 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:50,640 Speaker 3: in the playoffs. If they lose this game, it doesn't matter. 730 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 3: I'm not saying they wouldn't want to win this game, 731 00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 3: but they're in no matter what. Then they don't have 732 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 3: to play in the Big Ten Championship game. That happened 733 00:45:57,120 --> 00:45:59,640 Speaker 3: last year and they went on to win the national championship. 734 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:02,279 Speaker 3: Michigan's only chance to be in the playoffs is to 735 00:46:02,320 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 3: win this game, and then they probably got to win 736 00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:05,160 Speaker 3: the Big Ten ship. 737 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 2: If Ohio State loses, they missed the tiebreaker and they're 738 00:46:08,520 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 2: not in the title game. Correct or Nope, So it 739 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,000 Speaker 2: would be Indiana versus Oregon. 740 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 3: Maybe it would be so if Ohio State loses and 741 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,600 Speaker 3: Oregon wins, it would be Indiana Oregon. If Ohio State 742 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 3: loses and Washington beats Oregon, then it's Michigan Indiana in 743 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:28,279 Speaker 3: the champions So Michigan's still has a chance to make 744 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 3: the Big Ten Championship and they have to win this 745 00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 3: game to have a chance at the playoffs. Great game. 746 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,920 Speaker 3: The line actually dropped. It opened eleven eleven and a 747 00:46:35,920 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 3: half down to ten, So they've had some money coming 748 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 3: in on Michigan, probably just because of what's happened in 749 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:41,880 Speaker 3: the last four seasons. 750 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,879 Speaker 2: I want to turn my attention to another thing that's 751 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,800 Speaker 2: going on. First of all, the college football calendar is 752 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:53,080 Speaker 2: all screwed up. Sports. You college sports aren't now pro sports, 753 00:46:53,360 --> 00:46:57,160 Speaker 2: but in other sports, free agency begins, coaching changes occur 754 00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:01,319 Speaker 2: at the end of the season. In baseball, you can't 755 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:03,920 Speaker 2: sign a team's free agent until after the World Series 756 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 2: is over. But in football, the transfer portal opens before 757 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 2: the playoff games and before the ball games are played. 758 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 2: And with so many teams firing coaches, there are no 759 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 2: coaches that are jumping to other jobs before the season 760 00:47:16,280 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 2: is over. The most bizarre case of all is Mississippi. 761 00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 2: Mississippi is almost certainly going to be in the college 762 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:29,880 Speaker 2: football playoffs. They play their art rival Mississippi State this weekend. 763 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:34,600 Speaker 2: Their coach, Lane Kiffen is apparently going to quit before 764 00:47:34,680 --> 00:47:37,640 Speaker 2: they play a playoff game. He's rumored to be up 765 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:41,360 Speaker 2: for the LSU job, the Florida job, He's openly courting 766 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:43,600 Speaker 2: all of these other schools. The school itself has said, 767 00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:46,040 Speaker 2: we'll make an announcement after this game. I think Mississippi 768 00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 2: is fed up with it and would just as soon 769 00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 2: get him out of there. It's just unheard of that 770 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:54,600 Speaker 2: a coach would leave. Well, they're still alive for a 771 00:47:54,680 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: national championship. What do you make of all of this? 772 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:02,960 Speaker 3: That's crazy situation. First, first of all, that the NCAA 773 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:06,160 Speaker 3: did a little bit to change the transfer so the 774 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 3: transfer portal doesn't officially open un till January second this year. 775 00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 2: But the transfer portal say, yeah, it's. 776 00:48:15,640 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 3: Been going on during the season. I mean, that's that's 777 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:20,959 Speaker 3: the way it is. But yeah, interesting situation. Egg Bowl, 778 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 3: huge game. Mississippi State would like nothing better to beat 779 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 3: Ole Miss and Mississippi State if they win, they go 780 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:29,160 Speaker 3: to a bowl game. If they lose and they don't, 781 00:48:29,239 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: so that's a huge game for Mississippi State Ole Miss 782 00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,960 Speaker 3: with distractions. I mean, if you look at the odds 783 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:39,480 Speaker 3: in Vegas right now, the chances of him coming back 784 00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 3: to Ole Miss aren't good. They're six to one. He's 785 00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:45,279 Speaker 3: a favorite minus two hundred, which means you'd have to 786 00:48:45,360 --> 00:48:47,359 Speaker 3: lay two hundred to win one hundred if you bet 787 00:48:47,440 --> 00:48:50,040 Speaker 3: on him being the next LSU head coach. So there's 788 00:48:50,040 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 3: a good chance he'll be the LSU head coach and 789 00:48:52,400 --> 00:48:56,880 Speaker 3: leave before the chance before the playoffs, which is like 790 00:48:57,000 --> 00:48:57,840 Speaker 3: you said, it's unheard of. 791 00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 2: I don't even know capable of higher a coach that 792 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 2: isn't a drama queen. I mean, you had Brian Kelly, 793 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:07,960 Speaker 2: you had ed Ojeron, who's half nuts. Before you had that, 794 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 2: you had less miles, And now they're going to go 795 00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:14,400 Speaker 2: to Lane Kiffen, who he could just as easily go 796 00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:18,040 Speaker 2: jump to another. I mean, when people start griping at 797 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 2: college players for hitting the transfer portal and not showing loyalty, 798 00:49:22,000 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 2: give me a break. You have coaches that are willing 799 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:27,239 Speaker 2: to walk out on their team in the middle of 800 00:49:27,320 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 2: a season when they're chasing a national championship. I mean, 801 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:33,040 Speaker 2: and if Kiffen does take the job at LSU, there's 802 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 2: no way he's going to stick around and coach Mississippi 803 00:49:36,080 --> 00:49:39,480 Speaker 2: for five weeks. I mean, Mississippi needs for recruit It's 804 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:43,400 Speaker 2: just a mess, And I don't know. The problem in 805 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:46,280 Speaker 2: college boards is it's not a league like the NFL 806 00:49:46,480 --> 00:49:50,720 Speaker 2: or Major League Baseball. The NCAA only has limited rulemaking powers, 807 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 2: and these schools can do pretty much what they want, 808 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:57,239 Speaker 2: and they're all in competition with one another and total mess. 809 00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,520 Speaker 2: Let's turt our attention to the NFL. I think the 810 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 2: most interesting game of the weekend is the very very 811 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:05,960 Speaker 2: first game, the early Thanksgiving game, in which the Packers 812 00:50:06,000 --> 00:50:10,799 Speaker 2: play the Lions. It's in Detroit, it's on a short week, 813 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,279 Speaker 2: but the Packers come into the game off of one 814 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,280 Speaker 2: of their most impressive wins of the season. The Lions 815 00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:19,399 Speaker 2: come into the game off of a very unimpressive win 816 00:50:20,200 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 2: over the Giants, a game that they may well have lost. 817 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 2: Detroit's record on these Thanksgiving games, I think over the years, 818 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:31,760 Speaker 2: is it all that good Packers won earlier in the season. 819 00:50:32,000 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 2: What do you I don't know what to think about 820 00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 2: the Packers and the Lions. I think the Lions are 821 00:50:36,080 --> 00:50:39,000 Speaker 2: a slight favorite, which makes sense to me, even I'm 822 00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:40,000 Speaker 2: not sure. What do you think? 823 00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:44,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, the line opened three and dropped off the key 824 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:45,839 Speaker 3: number to two and a half. The Lions are faired 825 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,239 Speaker 3: by two and a half. Right now, Let's face it, 826 00:50:48,360 --> 00:50:50,360 Speaker 3: neither team's playing great. I mean they're both two and 827 00:50:50,440 --> 00:50:52,360 Speaker 3: two of their last four games. Green Bay beat the 828 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:56,640 Speaker 3: Giants in Minnesota during that stretch. Detroit's two and two 829 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,640 Speaker 3: of their last four games. They lost to Minnesota at home. 830 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:02,560 Speaker 3: Should have lost last weekend home to the Giants, so 831 00:51:02,600 --> 00:51:06,360 Speaker 3: they're not playing that well either. You mentioned Minnesota on Thanksgiving. 832 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 3: I think a lot of people just think they're good 833 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,799 Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving. Detroita thanks one, yeah, oh sorry, you try. 834 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 3: And Thanksgiving they're one and seven the last eight years 835 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 3: on Thanksgiving, and if you go back twenty years, they're 836 00:51:17,320 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 3: five and fifteen on Thanksgiving. 837 00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,319 Speaker 2: It's so colored intuit if you think a short week 838 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:24,319 Speaker 2: in the early game that having that home field would 839 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,719 Speaker 2: be an advantage. Though some of those years Detroit wasn't 840 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 2: any good, but in recent years they've been very good, 841 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 2: and they lose that game all the time. And the 842 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 2: Packers have won that game a few times over the years, 843 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:38,080 Speaker 2: they've lost it. They've played Detroit of this game many 844 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:42,120 Speaker 2: times down through the years. Famously, I think it was 845 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 2: in nineteen sixty two the only loss the Packers had 846 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 2: the entire season was on Thanksgiving Day to the Lions. 847 00:51:48,360 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 2: That was probably Vince Lombardi's best team. Brings back some 848 00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:55,160 Speaker 2: history in the game. So I think it's toss up. 849 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 2: Is that where you're you're coming down? 850 00:51:57,480 --> 00:52:00,399 Speaker 3: Yeah? The line came out three, which is basically say 851 00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:02,600 Speaker 3: both teams are even and they get a three point advantage. 852 00:52:02,640 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 1: At home. 853 00:52:03,040 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 3: That's what I think. I think that's where it is. 854 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:07,920 Speaker 3: I'd probably favor Detroit a little bit at two and 855 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 3: a half, but they're just not playing that well. The 856 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:13,839 Speaker 3: situation favors Detroit if green Bay this is there. It's 857 00:52:13,880 --> 00:52:16,160 Speaker 3: a short week on the road. This is green Bay's 858 00:52:16,160 --> 00:52:19,080 Speaker 3: fourth game in seventeen days, so basically a game every 859 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:22,399 Speaker 3: four days, whereas Detroit's fourth game in twenty two days 860 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,720 Speaker 3: and they're at home. I'd lean Detroit, but it's probably 861 00:52:25,719 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 3: a game we're not going to use. I don't think 862 00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 3: Detroit's playing that well right now, so we'll probably lay 863 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:29,400 Speaker 3: off it. 864 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 2: Bears and the Eagles, that's the other game I want 865 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:38,840 Speaker 2: to talk about. Two really interesting teams. The Eagles some 866 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:43,800 Speaker 2: weeks look really really really good other weeks not the Bears. 867 00:52:44,719 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 2: I don't know if everybody's aware of this, but this 868 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 2: blows my mind. The Bears are eight and three, but 869 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,919 Speaker 2: they've been outscored on the season. That is almost impossible. 870 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:57,120 Speaker 2: That means they've lost the three games that they've lost 871 00:52:57,600 --> 00:53:01,680 Speaker 2: by more combined than the total win margin in the 872 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:05,640 Speaker 2: eight games that they've won. They you know, they did 873 00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 2: it again last week. They beat Pittsburgh in a close game. 874 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 2: They would all these close games they come from behind. 875 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,400 Speaker 2: They now have to go on the road playing the 876 00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:18,719 Speaker 2: Eagles in an important game for Philadelphia. Philadelphia's defense has 877 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:23,080 Speaker 2: been very good, the offense has been inconsistent. The Eagles 878 00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,040 Speaker 2: are favored by a lot of points. Given that the 879 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:27,960 Speaker 2: Bears have the better record of the game. I think 880 00:53:28,000 --> 00:53:30,160 Speaker 2: almost everybody thinks this is the week that the Bears 881 00:53:30,239 --> 00:53:30,840 Speaker 2: get smoked. 882 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 3: Do you well, it's an interesting situation. Well, you mentioned 883 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:37,759 Speaker 3: the Bears. They have a negative point differential and a 884 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 3: negative yards per play differential and they're the number three 885 00:53:40,440 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 3: seed right now in the NFC. 886 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 2: Paul says that they're both eight and three. I thought 887 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:46,520 Speaker 2: that Philadelphia had was one last poor. 888 00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,000 Speaker 3: But they have the same record anyway, eight and three, 889 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 3: and Philadelphia is the number two seed and they're getting 890 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 3: out gained of the season. Only have a thirty point 891 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:57,240 Speaker 3: plus thirty point point differential. That's eleventh in the NFL. 892 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 3: So both teams are kind of weird in that situation. 893 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:03,400 Speaker 3: The Eagles are, you know, that's a scary game for 894 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:05,719 Speaker 3: the Bear. The Eagles were up twenty one to zip 895 00:54:05,840 --> 00:54:08,759 Speaker 3: last week on the Cowboys and lost, so that's a 896 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 3: this is a big game for them. Bears finally won 897 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 3: a game where they weren't dominant turnover margin. It was 898 00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:16,680 Speaker 3: an even turnover margin last week against the Steelers, and 899 00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 3: they won. 900 00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:18,960 Speaker 2: Finally. 901 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 3: Here's what the odds makers think of these teams. Mark 902 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 3: First of all, Chicago's eight and three. They've been an 903 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:27,320 Speaker 3: underdog in seven of their eleven games this season, and 904 00:54:27,360 --> 00:54:30,120 Speaker 3: they're eight and three. They've never been favored by more 905 00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:32,880 Speaker 3: than four and a half points the entire season. The 906 00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 3: Eagles are also eight and three, and they've been a 907 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:37,280 Speaker 3: favorite in every game except Green Bay. So the odds 908 00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 3: makers obviously think the Eagles are much better, which is 909 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,200 Speaker 3: why the line's seven in this game. If you look 910 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:45,160 Speaker 3: at the playoff picture right now again, Eagles are two 911 00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:47,680 Speaker 3: in the NFC, Bears are three. Whoever wins this game 912 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:51,520 Speaker 3: is number two and the losers number three. If it 913 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,920 Speaker 3: ended right now today, the Packers would go to Chicago 914 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:56,680 Speaker 3: in the first round of the playoffs and the Lions 915 00:54:56,719 --> 00:54:57,680 Speaker 3: would be out of the playoffs. 916 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:02,400 Speaker 2: So they play the Bears three times in about seven weeks. 917 00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:05,440 Speaker 2: If that this is going to just shake up a lot. 918 00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:08,200 Speaker 2: There are so many divisional games backloaded in the schedule 919 00:55:08,719 --> 00:55:11,879 Speaker 2: and so on. Okay, that's a little football preview. We're 920 00:55:11,920 --> 00:55:13,480 Speaker 2: now going to get some points spread picks. 921 00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:14,799 Speaker 3: And I. 922 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 2: Managed last week to not lose for the first time 923 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 2: in five weeks. They didn't win either. I got fortunately, 924 00:55:22,200 --> 00:55:25,360 Speaker 2: got a good line in the Arizona Jacksonville game. I 925 00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,480 Speaker 2: took the Cardinals getting three points and they lost by three. 926 00:55:29,280 --> 00:55:34,000 Speaker 2: Let's see. I like Mike's pick of Hawaii over UNLV. 927 00:55:34,160 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 2: They were a three point underdog and they got smoked 928 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:39,279 Speaker 2: by twenty eight points. And Paul was fortunate enough he 929 00:55:39,360 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 2: got a good line too. That was the Bears over 930 00:55:41,200 --> 00:55:43,920 Speaker 2: the Steelers. The Bears won the game by three points. 931 00:55:44,040 --> 00:55:45,799 Speaker 2: They were favored at the time we did our show 932 00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 2: by two and a half. So he got to win. 933 00:55:48,600 --> 00:55:51,319 Speaker 2: Football games of course, start on Thanksgiving Day. For those 934 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 2: of you who listen to the podcast after the fact, 935 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,279 Speaker 2: we're doing this one on the Wednesday of Thanksgiving week. Paul, 936 00:55:56,360 --> 00:56:01,640 Speaker 2: you get to go first. He wants to go both 937 00:56:01,680 --> 00:56:05,280 Speaker 2: the over under and the point spread on the Bears 938 00:56:05,480 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 2: and the Eagles. Let's see here. Yeah, and I didn't 939 00:56:16,760 --> 00:56:19,520 Speaker 2: mention the Bears and the Eagles play on Friday. Yeah, 940 00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 2: it is weird and it's just part of the NFL 941 00:56:21,680 --> 00:56:24,600 Speaker 2: screwing with college football. There's a zillion college football games. 942 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:26,799 Speaker 2: The NFL just wants to play a game every week. 943 00:56:26,880 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 2: That's the whole thing that they've got going. The Eagles 944 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 2: are favored by seven and the total is forty four 945 00:56:32,040 --> 00:56:39,960 Speaker 2: and a half. Paul's taking the Bears. I just don't know, 946 00:56:40,040 --> 00:56:41,640 Speaker 2: which is why one of the reasons I brought it 947 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 2: up with Mike. I don't Paul thinks the Bears are better. Well, 948 00:56:47,040 --> 00:56:49,000 Speaker 2: I mean the Eagles coach is a super Bowl winner. 949 00:56:49,080 --> 00:56:53,399 Speaker 2: I mean, well last year he didn't he didn't want 950 00:56:53,480 --> 00:57:01,680 Speaker 2: his brain fell out in the off season. Yeah, Paul says, 951 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:03,600 Speaker 2: they're always in the games at the end. Yeah, I 952 00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 2: just it. The Bears are a tough team for me 953 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:12,800 Speaker 2: to analyze. Usually teams in the situation like this losing 954 00:57:12,960 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 2: point differential despite an eighty three record, it just catches 955 00:57:16,080 --> 00:57:19,080 Speaker 2: up with you and you crushed down the stretch. But 956 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,000 Speaker 2: the year that the Bears went to the Super Bowl, 957 00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:23,480 Speaker 2: the year that Devin Hester ran the kickback against the coast, 958 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 2: it was all year. It just never stopped until after 959 00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:29,600 Speaker 2: that kickoff return in the Super Bowl. On the other end, 960 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,640 Speaker 2: if you look at the numbers. Philadelphia's offense is ranked 961 00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:36,520 Speaker 2: low and their defense is ranked low. But visually when 962 00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 2: I see them play, they look very good. And as 963 00:57:39,240 --> 00:57:41,200 Speaker 2: Mike said, for two and a half quarters, they just 964 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 2: were dominant of Dallas. I just don't know. I don't 965 00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 2: know that we need to go to Mike for an 966 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 2: analysis because we just talked about that game in some depth. 967 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:49,439 Speaker 2: So let's get a point spread pick for Mike. Which 968 00:57:49,520 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 2: game or games do you want to hear about. 969 00:57:52,160 --> 00:57:56,800 Speaker 3: Let's start in college. I'm to look at the UAB 970 00:57:57,040 --> 00:58:00,840 Speaker 3: Tulsa game to start. That's number three eighty nine, three ninety. 971 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:03,520 Speaker 1: Yeah. 972 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:06,920 Speaker 2: I already know who you're gonna pick. Let's see three 973 00:58:06,960 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 2: eighty nine, three ninety. That game is at Tulsa. Tulsa 974 00:58:11,680 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 2: is favored by eight and a half over UAB. That's 975 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:16,120 Speaker 2: in the American Association Conference. 976 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:19,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. I don't like land points the teams that aren't great, 977 00:58:19,560 --> 00:58:20,640 Speaker 3: but I'm taking Tulison there. 978 00:58:20,720 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you on that. Tulsa the end 979 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,320 Speaker 2: of the season, they're not any good, but they've ended 980 00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 2: the season well. UAB got rid of trend dil for 981 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 2: earlier in the season. He's the worst coach in college football. 982 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:35,880 Speaker 2: I think, and I'm guessing this is what you're gonna 983 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:37,760 Speaker 2: go on. Tulsa now has something to play for. They 984 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,640 Speaker 2: feel good about themselves, and UAB is in a mess. 985 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 2: The whole team's going to hit the portal, the coaches 986 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 2: that are there are all going to leave, and and 987 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 2: Tulsa has some momentument you had be's defense and just 988 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 2: their atrocious I hope I didn't steal all your points 989 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 2: because I know you'll have a lot more. 990 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 3: No, you you hit on some of them. But you're right. 991 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 3: I mean UAB has lost seven of the last eight games. 992 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 3: The only one they won was the weekend after they 993 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,320 Speaker 3: fired Trent del for which happens a lot. 994 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:04,720 Speaker 2: It does happen a lot. It's weird, but it happens 995 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:05,000 Speaker 2: a lot. 996 00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:08,520 Speaker 3: It's weird NFL and college just it happens. I don't 997 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 3: know why it happens when it happens. So you got 998 00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:15,400 Speaker 3: to keep that in mind. So they're not playing well. 999 00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 3: They just play back to back home games and lost. 1000 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:21,280 Speaker 3: It's a meaningless road game for them. Like you said, 1001 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 3: Tulsa now beat Oregon State at home handily. They want 1002 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:28,240 Speaker 3: at Army last week, which is pretty impressive. So they're 1003 00:59:28,280 --> 00:59:32,800 Speaker 3: playing well, and the UAB team is in there in disarray. 1004 00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:34,600 Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw. I mean they had 1005 00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:38,600 Speaker 3: a guy on their team, a defensive lineman, stabbed two teammates. 1006 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:40,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, they a guy tried to kill two of his 1007 00:59:40,480 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 2: teammates before the game, and they didn't even usually like 1008 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,360 Speaker 2: you'll cancel the game. They just went ahead and played 1009 00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:50,840 Speaker 2: the game. Dissension. I've never heard of somebody trying to 1010 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:52,760 Speaker 2: kill two of his teammates on game day. 1011 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,760 Speaker 3: I mean, he's charged with attempted murder. He's on the team. 1012 00:59:56,840 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 3: And they considered not playing their home game last week 1013 00:59:59,680 --> 01:00:02,960 Speaker 3: again USF. They lost by thirty, but they decided to 1014 01:00:03,000 --> 01:00:05,360 Speaker 3: play it because the two players are in stable condition. 1015 01:00:05,560 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 3: The two players that he stabbed aren't going to. 1016 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 2: Die so well in the school, didn't want to give 1017 01:00:09,840 --> 01:00:11,640 Speaker 2: up the revenue because the game was not going to 1018 01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:15,240 Speaker 2: be replayed, and so on. I mean, you're you're right. 1019 01:00:15,360 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 2: They are a mess. The problem, of course, is that 1020 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 2: tuls is not that good, but you but they they 1021 01:00:19,680 --> 01:00:21,840 Speaker 2: have improved. They played two pretty good games in a 1022 01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:27,480 Speaker 2: didn't They just upset someone last week? Last week at Army, 1023 01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:29,200 Speaker 2: which is a tough place to win, and they put 1024 01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,840 Speaker 2: up some points, and Army's defense is pretty good. So 1025 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,200 Speaker 2: I don't even know who Telsea's coaches, but it looks 1026 01:00:34,240 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 2: like he's turning the program around over there. Who is 1027 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 2: their coach? 1028 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 3: You know, I can't think of it off the top 1029 01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 3: of my head, No, Richardson, I can't. 1030 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 2: All Right, weird game that I'm not going to use 1031 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:47,760 Speaker 2: is my pick. But you don't see this often. We've 1032 01:00:47,800 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 2: got a college football game this year in which the 1033 01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 2: teams are playing for a second time. The reason for 1034 01:00:52,640 --> 01:00:55,600 Speaker 2: that is there's one conference. It has only two teams, 1035 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,360 Speaker 2: the PAC two, Oregon State and Washington State. So this 1036 01:00:58,480 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 2: is the second time that they played this and that's 1037 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:04,919 Speaker 2: that's weird. Oregon State won the first game. Washington State's better, 1038 01:01:05,000 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 2: so everybody thinks Washington State's gonna kill Oregon State. Uh 1039 01:01:08,360 --> 01:01:11,200 Speaker 2: in that game. But that's a weird anomaly of a game. 1040 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 2: I gave serious thought to taking Ohio State in the 1041 01:01:16,240 --> 01:01:18,840 Speaker 2: game that Mike and I were talking about, in part 1042 01:01:18,880 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 2: because wait, I just Michigan is winning so many close 1043 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:27,160 Speaker 2: games and the offense is getting better. They have Underwood, 1044 01:01:27,200 --> 01:01:30,240 Speaker 2: the highly touted freshman quarterback, and Mike points out Ohio 1045 01:01:30,320 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 2: State hasn't played anybody. That's true, but they just seem 1046 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,640 Speaker 2: so dominant when they play. I'm just not gonna fight 1047 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 2: that trend though of Ohio State crapping every year. In 1048 01:01:41,720 --> 01:01:43,920 Speaker 2: this game, there was another game I looked at that 1049 01:01:44,960 --> 01:01:48,240 Speaker 2: we get underneath Mike's skin. I think this is the 1050 01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:52,280 Speaker 2: way to play Hawaii. They put they play Wyoming, Wyoming 1051 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:54,120 Speaker 2: has to go to Hawaii. They're not gonna pay any 1052 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 2: of it. Wyoming's offense is life Wisconsin. They just can't 1053 01:01:57,240 --> 01:01:59,800 Speaker 2: do anything. And I think Hawaiians the season with a win. 1054 01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 2: But I just there's another game that I want to 1055 01:02:02,000 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 2: go to, and that's the game between Colorado and Kansas State. Now, 1056 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:11,480 Speaker 2: Kansas State's in a tricky situation. Last week, they went 1057 01:02:11,560 --> 01:02:15,000 Speaker 2: on the road to Utah, and Utah is a really 1058 01:02:15,120 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 2: good team and they had him beat. They were way 1059 01:02:17,840 --> 01:02:19,800 Speaker 2: ahead in the game and Utah came from behind to 1060 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:23,320 Speaker 2: win fifty one to forty seven in a wild game. 1061 01:02:23,840 --> 01:02:26,560 Speaker 2: Kansas State comes home, they're five and six. That means 1062 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,160 Speaker 2: they need to win to be ball eligible. And the 1063 01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 2: key to this is they're playing Colorado. The whole Dion 1064 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 2: Sanders thing has become a train wreck out there. Colorado 1065 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:40,680 Speaker 2: is terrible. They just lost two home games in a row. 1066 01:02:40,960 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 2: They lost it home to Arizona last week by twenty 1067 01:02:43,400 --> 01:02:47,240 Speaker 2: five points. There's you talk about bad chemistry on the team. 1068 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,920 Speaker 2: It's just a mess, and people don't know if Dion's 1069 01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 2: going to be back. He's not going to be fired 1070 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,120 Speaker 2: because he's biot is through the roof, but he might 1071 01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 2: just instead of continuing to humiliate himself, cite his health 1072 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 2: because he's got all sorts of health issues and leave. 1073 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 2: My only concern is that Kansas State may be drained 1074 01:03:05,200 --> 01:03:07,360 Speaker 2: by what happened last week. There are also rumors that 1075 01:03:07,400 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 2: the coach of Kansas State might be in trouble. But 1076 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:12,439 Speaker 2: I do think I'm laying sixteen and a half here. 1077 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:15,840 Speaker 2: I think Kansas State can beat Colorado because Colorado's been 1078 01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:19,280 Speaker 2: losing by seventeen or more every single week. They put 1079 01:03:19,320 --> 01:03:21,880 Speaker 2: in one decent game against I think West Virginia a 1080 01:03:21,920 --> 01:03:26,040 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago, otherwise they're getting slaughtered. Also, Colorado 1081 01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:29,520 Speaker 2: does have a tremendous freshman quarterback, Juju Lewis. He hadn't 1082 01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:31,360 Speaker 2: played all year. He did get put into the game 1083 01:03:31,960 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 2: last week. Dion Sanders has said he will not play 1084 01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:36,920 Speaker 2: in this game because they want to keep his red 1085 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:41,480 Speaker 2: shirt status so he keeps all of his years of eligibility. 1086 01:03:41,560 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 2: I actually think that that was probably the quarterback saying 1087 01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:45,760 Speaker 2: I don't want to play in this game, and Dion 1088 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 2: being forced to put up with it. So I'm going 1089 01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:50,280 Speaker 2: to take Kansas State to win by seventeen or more. 1090 01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 2: That line's bopped around, and when it moved underneath seventeen 1091 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,280 Speaker 2: in our service scores and odds, that's where I landed. 1092 01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 2: But I had lots of ideas, and by the way, 1093 01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 2: I don't have a single idea the NFL, so I 1094 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:02,920 Speaker 2: was only on college games. Do you have any thoughts 1095 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:04,800 Speaker 2: in that game? I just think Kansas State's a much 1096 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 2: better team. I admit you have to worry about a 1097 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:10,840 Speaker 2: team that just went through the ringer of a game, 1098 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:13,280 Speaker 2: but that was a road game and they are back 1099 01:04:13,360 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 2: home against a team that just appears to not be 1100 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:19,840 Speaker 2: any good, with a disconnected coaching staff and lack of 1101 01:04:19,920 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 2: motivation and all of that. What do you think. 1102 01:04:22,440 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, my guess is that game is going to be 1103 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:27,000 Speaker 3: above seventeen by the time they play, So that game's 1104 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 3: probably going to move up. 1105 01:04:28,160 --> 01:04:29,760 Speaker 2: On the service we use. It was seventeen and a 1106 01:04:29,800 --> 01:04:31,840 Speaker 2: half yesterday and they went down to sixteen and a 1107 01:04:31,880 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 2: half and it's been flopping around all over the place. 1108 01:04:34,640 --> 01:04:37,040 Speaker 2: I just the only fear I have is that it's 1109 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 2: too obvious, you know. 1110 01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:42,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's a big line. Colorado's lost three 1111 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:44,200 Speaker 3: of their last four games like twenty five points or more. 1112 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 3: And the thing that I like about this game again 1113 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 3: is last week, if you looked, Kansas State out played 1114 01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:52,200 Speaker 3: to Utah on the road, which Utah has pretty much 1115 01:04:52,240 --> 01:04:54,560 Speaker 3: creamed everyone at home, with the exception of Texas Tech. 1116 01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 3: And they Kansas State in that game rushed for all 1117 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:01,240 Speaker 3: almost five hundred yards. 1118 01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:03,720 Speaker 2: They had one guy run for two ninety three and 1119 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:07,760 Speaker 2: Colorado is terrible against the run. I mean, that was 1120 01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 2: another thing that I looked, just looked at. I think 1121 01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:11,520 Speaker 2: if Kansas State can get a lead, they're just going 1122 01:05:11,560 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 2: to grind them down. Now, Kansas State's quarterback has been 1123 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 2: very good, but he's struggled a bit the last couple 1124 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 2: of weeks. But the running games got really good. And 1125 01:05:19,360 --> 01:05:22,640 Speaker 2: Colorado's defense is poor and their run defense is especially poor. 1126 01:05:23,440 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, wells as they were running for four hundred and 1127 01:05:26,840 --> 01:05:31,480 Speaker 3: seventy two yards last week on Utah Colorado against Arizona 1128 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 3: State gave up three hundred and fifty five yards rushing 1129 01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 3: right week. So it's it's supposed to be cold and 1130 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 3: windy and snowy possibly there, which would actually benefit Kansas 1131 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:44,800 Speaker 3: State because Colorado can't run, if they can't pass because 1132 01:05:44,800 --> 01:05:46,520 Speaker 3: it's wendy, They're in huge trouble in that game. 1133 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,560 Speaker 2: Okay, recapping the picks real quickly, Paul says, take the 1134 01:05:49,600 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 2: Bears a seven point underdog against the Eagles. Mike. Mike says, 1135 01:05:56,720 --> 01:05:58,720 Speaker 2: Tulsa to beat UAB by nine or more and I 1136 01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 2: need Kansas State to be Lorado by seventeen or more points. 1137 01:06:03,240 --> 01:06:06,360 Speaker 2: Click note on scheduling. We do have another podcast this week. 1138 01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:09,920 Speaker 2: It will be released on Friday afternoon because tomorrow it's Thanksgiving. 1139 01:06:09,960 --> 01:06:12,360 Speaker 2: We will be releasing the final podcast of the week 1140 01:06:12,480 --> 01:06:16,600 Speaker 2: Friday afternoon, right around two o'clock or so in the afternoon. 1141 01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:17,040 Speaker 2: Talk to that. 1142 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 1: The Mark Belling Podcast is a production of iHeartRadio Podcasts. 1143 01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:26,960 Speaker 1: Production and engineering by Paul Cronforest.
