WEBVTT - Headlines 0:00:01.360 --> 0:00:05.160 The Jesse Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse Kelly 0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:08.719 Show on a fantastic Tuesday. I don't know where we're 0:00:08.720 --> 0:00:10.280 gonna go this hour. I mean, we have to talk 0:00:10.280 --> 0:00:13.800 about companies laying people off, where sucks, a border security plan. 0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:17.360 I can get behind Hershey's chocolate emails, all that, so 0:00:17.520 --> 0:00:20.439 much more coming up in the final hour of the 0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:23.560 world famous Jesse Kelly Show. Let's talk about something good. 0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:28.280 I'm gonna talk about something good, something I find to 0:00:28.360 --> 0:00:38.000 be uplifting. Bangladesh is floating the idea of putting crocodiles 0:00:38.000 --> 0:00:42.680 on their border for border patrol, and I love this. 0:00:42.560 --> 0:00:49.600 This what Chris listen. Oftentimes I've said this before. Communists 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:55.120 will explain my worldview better than loser Republicans do. For instance, 0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.200 Joyanne Reid, remember that clip we played, Chris. We grabbed 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:02.400 that Joyanne read clip from last night. Joyanne Reid was 0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:07.320 trying to sound scary, make me sound scary, make you 0:01:07.400 --> 0:01:10.959 sound scary. She was trying to make this sound like 0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:14.480 a bad thing. But Joyanne Reid, when she went on 0:01:14.600 --> 0:01:18.160 camera and tried to make us sound scary, actually outline 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:19.520 my plans perfectly. 0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:22.360 Is that if you go back before the twentieth century. 0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:25.720 There were no income taxes, there were no regulations on business. 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:27.800 You could earn as much money as you want, leave 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.200 one hundred percent of it to your children with no taxes. 0:01:30.360 --> 0:01:32.479 That's the world they want back. And to get it back, 0:01:32.680 --> 0:01:34.960 they need society to change. They need people to be 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:35.760 less modern. 0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:42.840 Yes, yes, yes, that's perfect. I'm not going to ask 0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:44.959 Chris to go back and get it. But Obama at 0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.560 one point in time, speaking of the border patrol, Obama 0:01:49.440 --> 0:01:52.440 he said, ah, these Republicans they want they want to 0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:56.280 put crocodiles and alligators down on the border. And of 0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.200 course Republicans scrambled to the microphone, that's not true. We're 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:01.880 looking for a few. I think I was the only 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:05.760 one who was like, yeah, that's awesome, it's perfect. Yeah, 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:09.480 that's exactly what I want. Good, that's exactly what I want. 0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:14.560 Rashida Kleib claim Kleib whatever. Remember it wasn't long ago. 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.799 She was in the congressional hearing and she held up 0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.680 this picture that the Department of Homeland Security had put 0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:24.280 up and she said something to the effect I forget 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:26.040 exactly what she said. She said, you know what, this 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.480 makes me feel like this makes me feel like a 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:31.880 Mushlima and I don't even know what a Muslima is, 0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:34.520 and I've never heard that term before in my life. 0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:37.399 This makes me feel like as a Muslima that I'm 0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:42.919 not welcome here. And of course, yes, that's exactly it. Death, 0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:47.520 You've got it figured out, that's exactly it. Communists outline 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:52.120 my worldview so much better than Republicans do. That. It's sad, 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:55.440 but I support you, Bangladesh. I want you. I want 0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:58.440 those crocodiles on the border. I also want Americans to 0:02:58.440 --> 0:03:02.080 stop getting fired or mass layoffs. On March thirty first 0:03:02.120 --> 0:03:05.280 don the tech world, not just for their scale, thirty 0:03:05.320 --> 0:03:11.280 thousand people were immediately terminated, but with this is from Newsmax, 0:03:11.400 --> 0:03:15.639 but with Oracles fifty billion dollar Kapex on AI data 0:03:15.639 --> 0:03:19.880 centers still in the works, and cash flows paling in comparison, 0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:25.880 the cuts may not be finished. Do you remember Do 0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:28.440 you remember when we had Ryan Gurdusky on the show 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.680 and he talked about AI. If you don't remember, Buddies 0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:36.200 with Ryan Gurdusky, He's one of these political nerds. He 0:03:36.280 --> 0:03:38.520 breaks down all the polls. He really gets down to 0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:40.840 the nitty gritty of what people are feeling and what 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.720 they're not. One of the reasons I like Ryan is 0:03:43.800 --> 0:03:45.480 Ryan is one of these types. He doesn't give a 0:03:45.480 --> 0:03:46.920 crap if it's something you want to hear or not. 0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:48.440 He's just going to give you the data. This is 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.240 what the data says, is what it is. You may 0:03:50.280 --> 0:03:52.240 love it, sometimes you love it, sometimes you hate it. 0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:57.360 But he said something that I thought was really really inspiring, 0:03:57.960 --> 0:04:00.240 and I found it inspiring because it goes along the 0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:02.360 lines of something that I had predicted on the show. 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:09.000 I said, AI artificial intelligence. I understand it's all the 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:12.400 rage and things like that now, but I am not 0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:16.400 as afraid of it as other people are because I 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:23.240 thought I thought human beings would reject it. Human beings 0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:27.440 will not like it. It's always being sold as it'll 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:29.120 make your life better. It can do this, you can 0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:34.520 do that and do this. But human beings, instinctively, they 0:04:34.520 --> 0:04:38.640 will want things from other human beings. They will reject AI. 0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:43.120 People make these predictions like AI will make all the music, 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:45.200 and I know there have been big AI music songs. 0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:47.320 I understand that, but AI is gonna make all the 0:04:47.360 --> 0:04:49.719 movies and write all the books, and AI this, and 0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:53.320 you have AI radio shows and things like that. I 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.680 think people will hate it and they'll reject it. And 0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.600 when they find out it's AI, they will not like it. 0:04:59.279 --> 0:05:03.000 Human beings things will instinctively reject it. And anyway, Ryan 0:05:03.000 --> 0:05:08.880 Gardusky comes on the show and he said, AI it's 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:13.400 an eighty twenty issue with voters in the United States 0:05:13.400 --> 0:05:17.080 of America, meaning eighty percent of the people in the 0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:20.200 United States of America have a negative view at it 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:23.440 of it. They are worried about it, they are going 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:27.320 to reject it. They want a politician who will dig 0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:34.479 in on rejecting it. And some of these corporations, I 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:38.120 don't think they're appropriately reading the tea leaves on this stuff. 0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:41.960 I understand a corporation has to make money. That's the 0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:45.320 entire purpose of any businesses to make money. Make money 0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:47.680 for yourself, if you have shareholders, make money for them, 0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:51.240 make money for your employees. The bottom line is the 0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:54.800 whole bottom line. That's what business does. I get that. 0:05:55.920 --> 0:05:58.880 And on a P and L a profit loss sheet, 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:03.240 a profit loss sheet, it displays about exactly what you 0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:04.680 think in case you don't know what it is, but 0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:07.440 you can look at it and you can see your expenses. 0:06:08.320 --> 0:06:13.760 And every business owner, large businesses and small mom and 0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:17.320 pop shops, every single one of it looks at the 0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:21.960 labor cost, what you pay people, and thinks to itself, 0:06:24.160 --> 0:06:26.160 are we paying that much? Do we have to pay 0:06:26.200 --> 0:06:34.240 that much? Are we are mean? Now? Ai AI tells 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:39.440 that big corporate ceo, Hey, I'll cut that number in half. 0:06:40.760 --> 0:06:45.880 And that big corporate ceo trying to expand his company, 0:06:46.480 --> 0:06:50.000 trying to increase the size of that Christmas bonus check, 0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:53.159 trying to figure out a way to cut costs, and 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:56.200 he gets presented with the plan to cut that number 0:06:56.200 --> 0:07:01.680 in half. He thinks to himself, Wow, that's pretty worth it. 0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:06.880 Hey send out the email. Thirty thousand people are fired. 0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:12.119 But humanity does not exist on a profit loss sheet. 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.880 And if businesses are going to start doing this in 0:07:17.040 --> 0:07:19.000 mass if they're going to start doing this at the 0:07:19.080 --> 0:07:22.280 level some of them are doing this, I think these 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:26.720 businesses are in store for a public backlash. Some of 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:30.080 that public backlash I think will be uglier than other 0:07:30.120 --> 0:07:33.960 public backlashes. And this is what I mean. One thing 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:37.000 I guarantee you is coming. Appreciate write this one down. 0:07:37.400 --> 0:07:42.119 I guarantee you something is coming, and that is politicians 0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:46.239 are going to start regulating AI. They're going to start 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:50.120 regulating how many people can be laid off with AI. Now, 0:07:50.160 --> 0:07:52.280 this is going to involve all kinds of government intrusion 0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:53.800 in business, and in the end they'll screw it all 0:07:53.880 --> 0:07:56.600 up and it'll be terrible. But when a politician is 0:07:56.680 --> 0:08:00.200 handed in eighty twenty issue, he's going to act on 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:05.040 that just out of self preservation. He is. Now, that's 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:08.560 the best side of it. Here's the uglier side of it. 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:17.400 People are going to get killed. I'm talking about CEOs 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:21.760 are going to get killed. I already heard through the 0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:27.280 grapevine that Oracle after they canned thirty thousand people, Apparently 0:08:27.320 --> 0:08:30.240 they locked down their headquarters like it was Fort Knox 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:33.920 with armed security. Because when you tell thirty thousand people 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:37.680 they don't get a paycheck anymore. The chances are there's 0:08:37.840 --> 0:08:40.440 one guy or one gallon there who's going to lose 0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:43.800 his mind and come back with a gun. Chances are 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:47.120 pretty strong you fired at least one unbalanced person who's violent. 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.360 I'm not sharing this on This is the last thing 0:08:50.360 --> 0:08:51.839 in the world I ever want to see, you know that. 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:55.120 But I think if it's going to become the norm 0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:59.920 in the corporate world to do mass firings because you 0:09:00.120 --> 0:09:05.400 are doing a big company transition to AI. I think 0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.280 that that United Healthcare CEO who got gunned down in 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.440 the streets in New York, remember that story, terrible story. 0:09:11.520 --> 0:09:13.280 I think that he's going to end up being one 0:09:13.280 --> 0:09:16.560 of many. I think you're going to see people die. 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:21.760 You start taking away people's livelihoods in mass people die. 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:25.840 It's always been that way. People die when too many 0:09:25.840 --> 0:09:27.840 people get fired, because, like I said, there's always some 0:09:27.960 --> 0:09:31.720 violent psycho in there, maybe on drugs, drinking too much 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:35.679 booze nothing left to lose? Will that rhyme? Drinking too 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.080 much booze with nothing left to lose? What? Chris? 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:38.960 But what? 0:09:41.280 --> 0:09:43.679 I don't know what that is? There is that song lyrics? 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:46.200 Did I steal Summon song lyrics? Or did I write 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:49.439 my own? Just now, Chris live on the ear. This 0:09:50.160 --> 0:09:52.080 is amazing. This is why I told you I should 0:09:52.080 --> 0:09:56.200 have been a singer songwriter. Drinking too much booze, nothing 0:09:56.320 --> 0:09:59.800 left to lose. See, we have most of a song right. 0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:06.679 There is a Jesse Kelly show on a fantastic, fantastic Thursday. Thursday. 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.720 It's Tuesday. Do you know what happened? We sing our 0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:17.720 songwriters sometimes what Chris, Sometimes sometimes our mind works differently 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:22.959 the non artists, they wouldn't understand it. But drinking too 0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:27.520 much booze, nothing left to lose, yaha, yaha, YadA. It's 0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:30.319 all coming together, Chris. It might end up being a 0:10:30.320 --> 0:10:32.840 heavy sea. It's as heavy as ten boxes that you 0:10:32.920 --> 0:10:39.840 might be moving, Almighty Oracle, I'm searching for advice. My 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:43.240 daughter accepted a call to serve as a Christian missionary 0:10:43.280 --> 0:10:47.160 for our church in Nashville, Tennessee, for eighteen months starting 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:49.760 in May. Dang, that's a stretch. She is returning home 0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:52.280 from school in the next week to prepare for her departure. 0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.760 How would you handle the next month before she leaves. 0:10:56.240 --> 0:10:58.600 We're gonna go on a family trip within this time. 0:10:59.040 --> 0:11:01.600 But what do you think is best for father daughter 0:11:01.720 --> 0:11:05.559 time understanding? You don't have daughters love your show? When 0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:07.400 are you coming out to you? You toss and on 0:11:07.480 --> 0:11:13.920 and so forth. You know what, Take her to a 0:11:13.920 --> 0:11:19.840 baseball game. I'll tell you something. I maybe I'm just 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:24.839 getting old, but taking my kids to a ball game 0:11:25.000 --> 0:11:27.160 doesn't have to be major leagues. By the way, whatever 0:11:27.320 --> 0:11:31.840 did find something? Taking my kids to sporting events? Half 0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:33.520 the time. They don't give a crap about the sport 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:38.280 that's being played. There's just something great about it. Then 0:11:38.320 --> 0:11:40.720 we go get caught in candy together and we sit 0:11:40.760 --> 0:11:45.840 there and we cheer when everyone else cheers, and you 0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:48.840 you treasure those moments. The other night, I was watching 0:11:48.880 --> 0:11:53.560 the Astros game. I'm watching the Astros game, just relaxing. 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:55.840 I'm kind of browsing on my phone, trying of doing 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:58.640 some makeshift show prep for the next day, seeing if 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:01.440 anything's out there that I can entertain the messes with. 0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:05.800 And my son Luke comes downstairs. He said, oh, the 0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:11.080 Astros are on. Yeah, So he goes back upstairs because 0:12:11.120 --> 0:12:14.200 he was putting together these figurine things. It's hard to explain. 0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:18.640 He comes back upstairs, grabs him, comes back down, plops 0:12:18.640 --> 0:12:20.520 down right beside me, and puts them together. Watching the 0:12:20.559 --> 0:12:24.240 game with me. It's cool, right, Chris, And I have 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.920 to be honest. I am probably horribly biased in this thing. 0:12:28.679 --> 0:12:32.559 And here's the reason why. The last thing I did 0:12:32.640 --> 0:12:36.800 with my father on this planet was watch a baseball game. 0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:40.480 We got up, we went fishing with the boys that morning, 0:12:40.480 --> 0:12:42.439 remember I told you the story, And then we went 0:12:42.480 --> 0:12:44.720 to some cage and restaurant. My dad loves food like 0:12:44.760 --> 0:12:47.640 I love and we made disgusting pigs of ourselves stuff 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:50.400 in our faces. Came home that night, everyone had dinner, 0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.679 we got cleaned up, all the women went away so 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:55.880 we could actually hear ourselves think, and Dad and me 0:12:56.040 --> 0:12:59.400 sat down and watched a baseball We didn't even care 0:12:59.400 --> 0:13:02.040 about the team. If the Dodgers are playing somebody, forget 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:05.600 what it was, playoffs, but Dodgers are playing somebody, and 0:13:05.640 --> 0:13:08.240 we sat and watched a baseball game, told them good night. 0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:09.920 I never saw him again, So I don't know. There's 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.280 just something about that. I think something whatever. Who knows, Jesse, 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:16.360 I've been trying to figure out why the media is 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:19.240 so pro communist. For the life of me, I don't 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:22.680 get it. What do they think they would gain by 0:13:22.720 --> 0:13:27.160 living in a communist company? Are they that stupid? All right? 0:13:28.480 --> 0:13:32.960 Let me explain something again about the communist mentality. So 0:13:34.600 --> 0:13:37.360 I've used many countries as an example of this before, 0:13:37.400 --> 0:13:40.960 but I want to actually go to the Soviet Union 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:45.079 because they're one of the best ones. They when they 0:13:45.160 --> 0:13:49.000 first had their revolution in the Soviet Union. It's not 0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:52.520 like they had a communist revolution and then well, the 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:54.560 country kind of runs the same way. It's just the 0:13:54.559 --> 0:13:56.800 communists are in charge, not at all, not at all. 0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:00.800 They got rid of the czar, and yeah, the communists 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:04.240 were technically sitting in the seats of power in the government. 0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:08.760 But the people were starving the same way they were beforehand. 0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:13.920 So the communists they knew they had to feed the 0:14:14.000 --> 0:14:18.320 people somehow, some way, while at the same time crushing 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:22.040 descent or their little revolution was going to be very 0:14:22.080 --> 0:14:24.920 short lived. Starving people will overthrow any government. That's the 0:14:24.960 --> 0:14:27.760 Spottom line. They will. Starving people will act in those ways. 0:14:29.360 --> 0:14:34.040 The communists to get the food and to crush descent, 0:14:35.400 --> 0:14:38.800 they went not only to the prisons, which we've discussed before, 0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.200 and I don't just mean they opened up the doors 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:47.440 for political prisoners. They said, hey, rapist, come here, how'd 0:14:47.480 --> 0:14:50.360 you like to eat every day? We'll make sure you're fed. 0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:53.800 We're going to give you this gun, and we need 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:59.280 you to do some things for us. They armed the sickest, 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:04.720 those violent people in their society and then sent out 0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:07.920 these armed gangs. I mean they called them military units, 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:11.960 but sent out these armed gangs to go steal food 0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:15.960 from people and murder people. I talk about the Cheka, 0:15:16.000 --> 0:15:19.120 because that's what I call the FBI. The CHEKA was 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.560 the first secret police agency in the Soviet Union. It's 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:24.520 the one that Lennon and all those guys got rolled. 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:27.280 They called it the Checko. That's what it was known as. Well. 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.360 I hope you're not under the impression that Cheka was 0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:33.200 a bunch of street cops who decided to move on 0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:36.880 to the federal program. It's a packed full of criminals. 0:15:37.800 --> 0:15:41.960 It scumebacks. It would be like going down to some 0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:47.480 violent state prison somewhere with FBI badges, not just letting 0:15:47.520 --> 0:15:50.720 them out of prison, handing them FBI badges said hey, 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:55.200 you guys work for me. Now now those became the 0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:59.400 secret police agents. What I'm trying to get through to 0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:02.400 you is, I don't want you to be under the 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:06.960 impression that the Communist revolutionaries, the people fighting it, that 0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:11.400 they think there's some lofty end goal where they're going 0:16:11.520 --> 0:16:17.239 to get it. Is the Jesse Kelly Show on an Amazing, 0:16:17.520 --> 0:16:21.000 wonderful Tuesday. Remember you can email the show Jesse at 0:16:21.120 --> 0:16:25.760 Jesse kellyshow dot com. Portland judge says she's too busy 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:31.680 running for reelection to oversee trials. I understand that stuffing 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:37.040 busy all the time. It's Jesse. Your explorations of history 0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:40.360 are easily my favorite part of your show. I wanted 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:44.480 to make a pitch. I've been watching the Spartacus TV series. 0:16:45.120 --> 0:16:47.160 I'd love to see if you could make a series, 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:50.360 or even just devote part of an episode to the 0:16:50.400 --> 0:16:54.640 Third Servile War. I'd find it fascinating, not just because 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:58.600 of Spartacus and his insane feats like breaking the Romans, 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:01.760 pinning him on top of a suvi by making ropes 0:17:01.800 --> 0:17:04.840 from vines and climbing down, but also it put an 0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:07.720 It was put to an end by Marcus Crassus and 0:17:07.840 --> 0:17:13.359 Julius Caesar, so it'd be sot and so forth. Also, 0:17:13.400 --> 0:17:15.720 if this gets read on your show, Hi, daddy says 0:17:15.760 --> 0:17:21.720 his name is Dell. Dad, you're raising a good boy there? Also, Dad, 0:17:22.000 --> 0:17:23.560 do you monitor what he watches? It? 0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:23.800 All? 0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:27.280 That's Spartacus TV series is not for kids, man. There's 0:17:27.359 --> 0:17:31.240 a lot of Chris. What have you seen? What Chris said? 0:17:31.280 --> 0:17:34.800 Is it any good? I don't want to answer that 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:38.160 because it's really really not for kids, dude, I don't 0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:42.760 I'm not just I'm not just talking about violence. Man. 0:17:42.840 --> 0:17:49.159 There's a lot of adult stuff, A lot of adult 0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:53.639 a lot of adult stuff in that show. I can't 0:17:53.640 --> 0:18:00.600 stress that enough. Yeah, it's outstanding, absolutely absolutely outstanding. I 0:18:00.600 --> 0:18:03.520 I thought it was really, really well done. I forget 0:18:03.560 --> 0:18:06.280 what TV network did. It's Star. I think it might 0:18:06.320 --> 0:18:10.800 have been Stars. It was years ago where I watched it. 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:15.800 I thought it was very well done. Yeah, that might 0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:18.760 be a good idea. The Third Servile War would be 0:18:18.840 --> 0:18:23.680 a good idea. I am still currently tackling Napoleon's disastrous 0:18:23.760 --> 0:18:26.119 retreat from Russia. There's just so much to that, so 0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:27.840 I'm still chopping away at that. I hope you don't 0:18:27.840 --> 0:18:31.480 think I've forgotten. I'm working on another. That one will 0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:33.760 probably end up being a long one, so I'm working 0:18:33.840 --> 0:18:36.840 on that one. Third Servile War is a very good idea. 0:18:37.160 --> 0:18:42.640 I will give you this though. Here's something decimation. You've 0:18:42.640 --> 0:18:46.320 probably used that term in your life. You've probably used 0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:50.919 the term incorrectly. Everybody does. I do too. When we 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:55.680 say somebody has been decimated, what are we saying? We're 0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:59.560 saying wiped out, completely wiped out. That person was wiped out, 0:19:00.200 --> 0:19:05.400 Except that's not what decimation actually means. Decimation means reduced 0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:12.080 by ten percent Now, the practice of decimation was one 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:16.960 that is normally assigned to the Romans. Understandably, what was 0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:21.840 it If your unit showed cowardice on the battlefield, turned 0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:26.800 and ran something like that, then they would essentially draw straws, 0:19:26.840 --> 0:19:28.560 pick a number from a hat. That's what they would do, 0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:32.800 pretty much, and one out of it. There were ten 0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:37.280 man units, and whoever got the short straw? Wow, was 0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:42.800 that a short straw? Because the other nine men his friends. 0:19:42.880 --> 0:19:46.000 Remember these are people, they are You're closer than your brothers. 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:49.880 They would have to beat him to death. So it's 0:19:49.880 --> 0:19:52.840 not just that you die, you are beaten to death, 0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:57.000 and you are beaten to death by your closest friends. 0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:59.040 I don't I don't know who that's more traumatic for 0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:01.480 the guy who's getting beaten or the one having to 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:06.320 do the beaten. Could you imagine? Now, people say the 0:20:06.400 --> 0:20:08.640 Romans did this, the Romans did this, the Romans did this. 0:20:09.359 --> 0:20:12.440 It's true and it's not true. Remember when we talk 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:17.959 about the Romans, we're talking about a thousand year empire picture. 0:20:18.000 --> 0:20:20.640 I mean America, we're two hundred and fifty years old 0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:24.400 this year, two fifty. Now, that's actually a pretty good 0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:30.400 run for an Empire. Think about being a quarter of 0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:34.879 the way done with it five hundred years from now 0:20:35.640 --> 0:20:38.240 still the United States of America. That's probably not even 0:20:38.280 --> 0:20:41.960 realistic to think about, right, But that was the Roman Empire. 0:20:42.480 --> 0:20:45.399 So when you say things like the Romans did this 0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:49.520 or the Romans did that, usually you should qualify that 0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:54.240 by saying there was a period of time when the 0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:58.439 Romans did this. I brought all this up because you 0:20:58.560 --> 0:21:03.199 brought up Crassus. Crassus was, they say, the wealthiest man 0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:05.400 who ever lived, one of the wealthiest men who ever lived, 0:21:05.440 --> 0:21:09.639 a Roman. But he didn't have a ton of battlefield accomplishments. 0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:11.680 That ended up getting him killed in the end. We'll 0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:16.200 get that another time. But Crassus, they had this slave 0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:19.719 army led by Spartacus, and the slave army was whipping 0:21:19.760 --> 0:21:22.800 to Crappa all these Roman armies that were coming. Quick 0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:27.160 pause for a second. We don't know. Now. I might 0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:30.280 have some scholarly type who tells me we have confirmation 0:21:30.359 --> 0:21:32.000 of this, but I doubt that because I have looked 0:21:32.040 --> 0:21:38.400 into it pretty extensively. We don't know exactly what Spartacus's 0:21:38.680 --> 0:21:42.879 military background was. I think we do know he was 0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:48.440 captured as a slave from a military campaign. I think 0:21:48.640 --> 0:21:53.000 they think historians think that he was a military commander 0:21:53.200 --> 0:21:56.359 of some kind, which would make sense because this is 0:21:56.480 --> 0:21:59.639 clearly not your run of the mill slave. This is 0:21:59.680 --> 0:22:02.840 some who knew what he was doing. Anyway, He's slapping 0:22:02.840 --> 0:22:07.160 around these Roman armies. Crassus says, I'll lead an army 0:22:07.200 --> 0:22:10.280 down there, and I'll go down and whip him. Well, 0:22:10.480 --> 0:22:16.720 Crassus's boys take a whipping at first. Crassus brought back 0:22:17.359 --> 0:22:21.800 decimation for his troops when it hadn't been practiced for 0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:27.040 a long, long long time in the Roman Empire. When 0:22:27.119 --> 0:22:29.280 he did it, it was one of those things that 0:22:29.440 --> 0:22:33.440 showed how truly desperate the Romans were, because don't think 0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:36.919 decimation was something that just happened all the time in 0:22:36.960 --> 0:22:41.680 the Roman Empire. No, that they knew. It's a little far, 0:22:42.119 --> 0:22:46.120 maybe maybe a little too far here, very very very rare. 0:22:46.280 --> 0:22:50.040 But when you have a gigantic slave army potentially going 0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:53.960 to conquer the entire place and your guys don't perform 0:22:54.080 --> 0:22:57.200 the way you think they should, well, Crasus brought it back. 0:22:57.320 --> 0:23:00.280 Probably a pretty ugly day. Jesse, you say you're ran 0:23:00.320 --> 0:23:03.760 for Congress twice and lost twice, but you gloss over 0:23:03.800 --> 0:23:06.879 the fact that you're two for two in primaries. Why 0:23:06.920 --> 0:23:10.359 don't you share more helpful insight in that area with 0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:13.920 people who consider running for office, rather than always reminding 0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:18.760 us how bad you suck. I also have never heard 0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:22.439 you say that Gifford's cheated. That's all class man. Everyone 0:23:22.520 --> 0:23:25.600 knows she did. Man, I don't want to be that guy, 0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:28.920 and I don't know that. By the way, I don't 0:23:28.920 --> 0:23:31.159 have any idea whether there was cheating or not cheating. 0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:33.639 I lost my four thousand votes. What you're gonna do? 0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:37.520 That's the way it goes sometimes. And eight I lost 0:23:37.520 --> 0:23:40.119 two general elections. What's when in the primary? Get you? 0:23:41.320 --> 0:23:43.760 That's not what's that? What do you get? What is 0:23:43.760 --> 0:23:48.320 that a participation trophy? Now, yes, I ran in primaries 0:23:48.359 --> 0:23:50.480 in one, and I don't think it's because I have 0:23:50.560 --> 0:23:53.280 some particular skills or something like that. I'd never run 0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:59.040 for office before. I'm very far to the right. I'm 0:23:59.040 --> 0:24:01.679 extremely part of the right. I don't know of a 0:24:01.720 --> 0:24:04.840 single politician who is to the right of me. I 0:24:04.880 --> 0:24:06.919 don't know. I don't think I have a single friend 0:24:07.280 --> 0:24:08.879 who was to the right of me. I hope you 0:24:08.880 --> 0:24:11.159 don't think I was kidding about crocodiles on the border. 0:24:11.320 --> 0:24:13.359 I'm not I'm not talking about that at all. I 0:24:13.440 --> 0:24:15.800 hope you don't think I'm kidding about shipping illegals to 0:24:15.880 --> 0:24:18.560 a penal colony in Greenland before we send them back 0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:21.600 to their home. These are positions I actually hold. That's 0:24:21.640 --> 0:24:26.639 not for radio. I actually hold these positions. So in 0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:30.959 a Republican primary, you want to be the one furthest 0:24:31.000 --> 0:24:34.520 to the right. Nobody was going to be able to 0:24:34.520 --> 0:24:37.080 get to the right of me. It's because it doesn't exist. 0:24:37.240 --> 0:24:38.840 You can't. You can't get to the right of me. 0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:41.960 That's not a position that is obtainable. So it was 0:24:42.080 --> 0:24:46.119 never going to happen. Now, that combined with the mood 0:24:46.160 --> 0:24:48.440 of the country. Remember this was the Tea Party era, 0:24:48.920 --> 0:24:52.600 where Americans were horrified by Barack Obama and they wanted 0:24:52.600 --> 0:24:54.679 to go out and do something about it, and so 0:24:54.760 --> 0:24:57.280
