A lot of these modern places you 9 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,120 Speaker 2: go to, you order it a counter, okay, you find 10 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 2: your own table, you feel your own coffee, you get 11 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 2: your own food.

Should they be? 57 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:41,960 Speaker 5: It should be? 58 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,399 Speaker 4: You know, it's it's sort of the access of evils 59 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 4: is what's happening right now. And we have Starbucks to 60 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 4: thank for this because all of this tipping on the 61 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 4: point of sale machines happened back in two thousand and 62 00:02:55,120 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 4: eight when Starbucks was fighting with its union over tips 63 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 4: and they said, well, let us put it on the machine. 64 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 4: Starbucks liked it because they could pay their people less. 65 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 4: The employees liked it because now they can squeeze people 66 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 4: for tips. But the real evil part is the point 67 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:15,040 Speaker 4: of sale guys, Square, Toast and Clover they get a 68 00:03:15,080 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 4: percentage on the tips it's running through their machine.

I'm 74 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 1: glad we're having this segment because this just happened. I'm 75 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,720 Speaker 1: at a famous sub shop getting lunch and you know, 76 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: I order for my wife and I am getting it 77 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: to go and the screens flipped there and you know, 78 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: option to tip, So I tip a buck and I 79 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 1: actually happened to like ask the employee like, hey, do 80 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 1: you get those right now? And she's like and then 81 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: she's like, well, what did you do. She's like, oh, 82 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: you tipped a dollar and like kind of was put 83 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: off by it, and I was like oh, And then 84 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 1: I was like, do you, like, do you get that 85 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: or who gets She's like yeah, they go on our 86 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,760 Speaker 1: paycheck and they split them between everybody, and there was 87 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: like four or five people working there, and I'm kind 88 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:22,680 Speaker 1: of like, do employees now like basic do they expect 89 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 1: it or do they Is it almost like a bonus 90 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: because I'm always weirded out by the fact that that 91 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: screen is there, and I'm like, are these folks expecting 92 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 1: this or is it just they just see it as 93 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: all right, it's a bonus. And whatever you do, Yeah, 94 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,039 Speaker 1: they're expecting it. 95 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 4: They're expecting it. And you know, the insiduous part is 96 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 4: remember back when all of us were kids, and you know, 97 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 4: you started working at a restaurant, you're bussing tables or whatever, 98 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 4: and you knew that if if you really worked your 99 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 4: butt off for people, that they would give you a 100 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:55,680 Speaker 4: tip and then go in your pocket you keep it. 101 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 4: And so now it doesn't work that way. The whole 102 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 4: pit thing goes into a pot and then it gets 103 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 4: split up. So what I believe is that it's decreasing 104 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 4: the level of service and initiative that people have. BINGO 105 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 4: for me, if I do a good job, I'm going 106 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,200 Speaker 4: to get something out of it to you know what, 107 00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:17,839 Speaker 4: whatever I do, I'm going to get one twentieth of 108 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 4: this and so who really cares? And so I think 109 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 4: overall it decreases service levels. 110 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 2: I think you absolutely nailed it, okay, because I get 111 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 2: upset at that. I've been in at places before. Not 112 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 2: anymore because I know how the game works now. But 113 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 2: I used to be like, hey, you did a great job. 114 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 2: I would like you to get this twenty percent tip, 115 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,159 Speaker 2: Like oh no, it gets split up. I'm like, well, 116 00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: if that person over there is working half as hard. 117 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: I was basically telling them you should complain to your 118 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: manager here that if you work hard on that person, 119 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 2: it's it's like a socialist system here where everybody gets 120 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 2: the same no matter what. 121 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 1: So what's your incentive to work? It's absolutely right? 122 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:00,360 Speaker 4: Well, was the last time he went to QB or 123 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 4: you know, North Korea? How over the top were they 124 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,039 Speaker 4: to make sure you were happy with what we got? 125 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? Absolutely not. 126 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 2: Now let me ask you this in Nick Knakas is 127 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:15,279 Speaker 2: our guest, are a restaurant industry expert? How much now 128 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 2: are cause you mentioned this, are the owners of the 129 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 2: restaurants counting on the tips being a part of the 130 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 2: money and are they then paying their employees less? 131 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 1: How does that work with. 132 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: A minimum wage? Can they pay people less? How does 133 00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 2: that work? But it seems like they are certainly making 134 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: a scenario happen where you know the consumer is paying 135 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 2: the basically the paycheck of that person is no longer 136 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: a tip, You're paying the salary of that person. 137 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, great question. So this falls under the Fair Labored 138 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: Standards Act the FLSA, which is if a tipped employee 139 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 4: is in an occupation where they're getting something more than 140 00:06:55,880 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 4: thirty dollars a month. The standard is that the employer 141 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 4: can pay the minimum wage and that the tips go 142 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 4: towards their income. So the government has an incentive to 143 00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 4: reduce what the burden is on the employers, and the 144 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 4: employers now of course want to pay less because they're 145 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 4: getting squeezed everywhere they can. And then you get the 146 00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 4: no tax on tips, which only goes up to a 147 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,120 Speaker 4: certain amount. But you know, everybody really is incentivized to 148 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 4: get you to pay a little bit more. So it's 149 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 4: a hidden tax on what you're doing. Now, let me 150 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 4: ask you this. Have you been to a restaurant where 151 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 4: you have the service charge automatically put onto the bill 152 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 4: and they've got the tip lines underneath. 153 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: Yep. 154 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 2: Well yeah, and it's very small nick, as you know, 155 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:48,400 Speaker 2: but yes it's there. You've already paid, and then there's 156 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 2: a line for the tip. Now, you ceddainly happen if 157 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 2: you had parties of whatever eight or more or something. 158 00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: But I see it increasingly more and more on just 159 00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:01,400 Speaker 2: a regular check for one or two people, right. 160 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 4: And you know you put a zero on that. Wait 161 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 4: till you see the look that you get from the 162 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 4: server but at the end of the day, you know, 163 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 4: they just charged to eighteen or twenty percent, and that's 164 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 4: becoming the standard in a lot of cities where it's 165 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 4: just an automatic service charge. 166 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 1: Nick, you said, we have Starbucks to ultimately thank for this, 167 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: and would you say two thousand and eight when they 168 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: started doing the tip on the screen. I don't seem 169 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: to remember. To me, this didn't really It became prevalent 170 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,840 Speaker 1: in COVID when we're doing all the carryout and we 171 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 1: feel bad for those you know, those those folks that 172 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,000 Speaker 1: had to go out and go to the restaurant and 173 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 1: go back in the kitchen and work. It felt like, 174 00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: you know, you're going and getting carry out up, I'm 175 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 1: gonna fulm a couple bucks on there. And that's when 176 00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,280 Speaker 1: it became prevalent. And I think it's just only built 177 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: from there. 178 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 6: Is that? 179 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,359 Speaker 1: Am I right on that? I just don't remember it 180 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 1: being a thing that you tip someone or who's not serving 181 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: your table, you know. 182 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 4: Before that, Yeah, I mean there was always the tip jar, right, 183 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 4: you'd always have a tip jar, kind of take the 184 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 4: five dollars bill and fold it over to let you know, 185 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 4: you know, this is a good amount to give me, 186 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,080 Speaker 4: But you nailed it. I mean during the pandemic, it 187 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 4: was almost like our patriotic duties. You know, like you 188 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 4: felt good, you know, like you're you're here, You're being 189 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:23,080 Speaker 4: around all these people. You're probably going to die from 190 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:26,240 Speaker 4: this virus that nobody knows about. So here's two bucks 191 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: on the coffee, and you felt good about it. Right, Well, 192 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 4: nobody died of a few people died. And but now 193 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 4: we're past that, and now this expectation of you know, 194 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 4: clean your own tray. Here's something that I'm literally turning 195 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 4: around and giving you that somebody else cooked in a 196 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:45,480 Speaker 4: little bag and tipped me. By the way, where's the 197 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 4: service in that? I kind of feel like I'm paying 198 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 4: for the service in the food that I'm buying. 199 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 2: Right So, Nick, here's a question you were talking earlier 200 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 2: about the service charge that appears on bills, which is 201 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,320 Speaker 2: in addition to the line, and that also allows you 202 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 2: to tip if you would like to. 203 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: Can you if a. 204 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: Restaurant does that, can you go to them and say 205 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 2: I'm not paying the service charge? 206 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: And what happens if you do? 207 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 4: You can I've actually done it. I got a twenty 208 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,360 Speaker 4: five percent service charge on a on a restaurant for 209 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:19,959 Speaker 4: a pre yeah, and for like three people, okay, And 210 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 4: I said, yeah, I'm not paying twenty five percent. I 211 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,600 Speaker 4: didn't think the service warranted it. It must have taken 212 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 4: them fifteen minutes. They had to get the manager. They 213 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:31,840 Speaker 4: turned it into a big deal. My wife was so embarrassed. 214 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 4: She's like, just pay it and I said no, I'm 215 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 4: just too late. Now we're in it. So yes, they 216 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,319 Speaker 4: cannot definitely change it. But you want to see an 217 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 4: embarrassed family, you know, do that because they definitely know 218 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 4: how to drag it out. And yes, you can decide 219 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 4: what you want to tip. It's not mandatory. They just 220 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:54,199 Speaker 4: slide it in there. I'm probably going to have every 221 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:58,559 Speaker 4: restaurant chain owner calling me after this, you know, yelling 222 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,720 Speaker 4: at me. But that's the reality. If you're not happy 223 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 4: with the service, don't tip. People should work to get 224 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,719 Speaker 4: the tip, simple as that. 225 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: So Nick, last question here, would there are there any 226 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: restaurant I feel like a restaurant that would say that, 227 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,280 Speaker 2: would like advertise or put out there. Hey, you know, 228 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,439 Speaker 2: if you come in this place, there's no automatic service charge, 229 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 2: and the tips that you give are going to go 230 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 2: directly to that to the person that provided the service. 231 00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 2: I feel like as a restaurant, you would get a 232 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 2: better level of service, the customer would be happier. Is 233 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,280 Speaker 2: that happening or could that happen or is it kind 234 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 2: of too far gone at this point. 235 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 4: It could happen, But I think the and I think 236 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 4: that you're hitting a really strong vein there because there 237 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,360 Speaker 4: are going to be people that say, you know what, 238 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 4: you kid, thanks for working And you kind of see 239 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 4: yourself and these young kids. You know, when when you 240 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 4: were young and you were working hard, you wanted to 241 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,199 Speaker 4: make something of yourself, and when you see people like that, 242 00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 4: you tend to want to do something nice. But I 243 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 4: think that because of the volume of clients and transactions, 244 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 4: you know, people have realized, let's just slide the service 245 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 4: charge on and the majority of people are going to 246 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 4: pay it. And you know, if we turned that little 247 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,559 Speaker 4: screen around and what a lot of places are doing. 248 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 4: They're not putting fifteen, twenty, twenty five percent, They're putting one, two, 249 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 4: three dollars based upon what the size of the transaction is, right, 250 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,720 Speaker 4: so they'll have the dollar in a bigger amount. Yeah, 251 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:29,560 Speaker 4: So if you're buying a three or four dollars cup 252 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,680 Speaker 4: of coffee and you tip two dollars, that's like a 253 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 4: fifty percent tip. That's a lot. That's a lot, No thanks, 254 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 4: So that's that's what's happening. 255 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I also think that just how you know, we 256 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 2: don't wait for anything anymore, right, we're instant gratification. And 257 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 2: it's so much easier for this system to work now 258 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 2: with everything is on a you tap the car boom 259 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 2: and people will just most people don't even look at 260 00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 2: the bill, right, they just tap the card and leave. 261 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 2: And you know, and you know, the industry knows that, right, 262 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 2: So and you had to pull money out of your 263 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 2: wallet and count it out and you go, you would 264 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,960 Speaker 2: look you kind of there's a little more time. You 265 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: were a little more patient to see what was going 266 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 2: on there. And now I think that also plays into 267 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 2: it too. Uh well, Nick, listen, we really appreciate your 268 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 2: time on this.

Much of what is known about Patrick's 374 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 2: legendary life comes from the book The Confessio to some 375 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 2: like very old book that he wrote during his last years. 376 00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:23,440 Speaker 1: I mean he should should like. 377 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: Like all the information about you be written by you. 378 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,239 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean he could have made up all 379 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 2: this stuff, right, maybe I'm recorded to it. Born in 380 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:35,400 Speaker 2: he was actually born in Britain, though Blah Blah Bab 381 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 2: to a well to do family of Roman citizenship, was 382 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,800 Speaker 2: captured and likely enslaved at age eight to sixteen by 383 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 2: Irish marauders. For the next six years he worked as 384 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: a herder in Ireland, turned to a deepening religious faith 385 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 2: for comfort following the Council of a voice he heard 386 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 2: in a dream, Jason. He escaped and found passage on 387 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,159 Speaker 2: a ship to Britain, where he was eventually reunited with 388 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 2: his family. Blah blah blah blah blah. When we honor 389 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: Saint Patrick today? 390 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: A deeply religious man and not a lot of religion 391 00:19:07,119 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: being practiced on this day, No, a lot of drinking. 392 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 2: I was gonna say, there is. I mean, you think 393 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:16,719 Speaker 2: Christmas is bad? There is like zero religious undertones at 394 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 2: all of St Patrick's day. A lot of green three ways, yeah, 395 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,359 Speaker 2: which we'll get to that in a second. A couple 396 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 2: interesting facts here about Saint Patrick's day. It's often portrayed 397 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 2: off he's like playing a flute and leading the snakes 398 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 2: out of Ireland. 399 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: I got that. I got a picture of that up 400 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 1: right now. 401 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, There's actually no snakes around in Ireland during the 402 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 2: time that he was he was there. Snakes is a 403 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,879 Speaker 2: biblical reference, of course, connotate evil. Yeah, but if a 404 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 2: legend is taken literally, research suggests snakes never occupied Ireland 405 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: in the first place. There are no signs of snakes 406 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:58,360 Speaker 2: in the country's fossil record. Additionally, water has surrounded Ireland 407 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,720 Speaker 2: since the glacial period, so how would they get out there. 408 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,719 Speaker 2: I imagine there's some there by now. Lepre cons Another 409 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:09,959 Speaker 2: fun fact, Leprecrons are likely based on Celtic fairies. The 410 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,200 Speaker 2: red haired, green clothed leprecaun is, of course the most 411 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:18,000 Speaker 2: popular symbol, but folks think the origin the origins dated 412 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 2: back to mythical fairies. 413 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah blah. 414 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:25,920 Speaker 2: Okay, so that's where that comes from. 415 00:20:26,320 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: Of this one. 416 00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:38,440 Speaker 2: The first Saint Patrick's Day parade was held in Florida. 417 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: Where I'm like, uh, some city in some small town 418 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:43,040 Speaker 1: in Ireland, like. 419 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 2: Like you know, like Boston or something right like some 420 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 2: like you know, rich original thirteen colonies, No Florida. Although 421 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 2: people in Ireland had celebrated Saint Patrick's Day since the 422 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 2: nine hundreds, the tradition of a Saint Patrick's Day parade 423 00:20:56,640 --> 00:21:02,280 Speaker 2: began in America that actually predates the Founding Fathers. Record 424 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:06,840 Speaker 2: show a Saint Patrick's Day parade held in sixteen oh one, okay, 425 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 2: in a Spanish colony now known as Saint Augustine, Florida. 426 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,919 Speaker 1: I've been there before. More than a century. 427 00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: Later, homesick Irish soldiers serving in the English military marched 428 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 2: in Boston in seventeen thirty seven, and in New York 429 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 2: on March seventeenth, seventeen sixty two, enthusiasm for Saint Patrick's 430 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 2: Day parades started happening in New York City, Boston, other 431 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:34,480 Speaker 2: American cities from there. But again the first one, yeah, 432 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 2: sixteen oh one, Saint Augustine, Florida. We lost a lot 433 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 2: of money on that one. Here here's one too, I guess. 434 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:44,480 Speaker 2: So you know the kind of the Irish food is 435 00:21:45,600 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 2: corn beef and cabot right, likely an American innovation, I 436 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,680 Speaker 2: would think, So, there's not much Irish about that. So 437 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:57,440 Speaker 2: corn beef and cabbage is pretty good. Take some of that. 438 00:21:58,080 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 1: I got one for you round.

And I made the point I don't 533 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,920 Speaker 2: so much, you know, even care about that. And you 534 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 2: know I'll still tip, but I would like the scenario 535 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 2: to go back to where if you you are paying 536 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 2: the server that gave you the great service. But anymore, 537 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 2: it doesn't work that way, and Nick, you and I 538 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:11,959 Speaker 2: has talked about that a lot of most times anymore, 539 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 2: all the tips are thrown into a big pot and 540 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:16,840 Speaker 2: all twelve workers get it. 541 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:18,080 Speaker 1: We share a chunk of it. 542 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 2: I would think I would be upset if I were 543 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 2: a server, because, like I'm if I bust my ass 544 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 2: and you three don't, you're getting the same money as me, 545 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,399 Speaker 2: and that's feah. I don't like that. I don't like that. 546 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:30,800 Speaker 2: On American we do have a caller though. Let's go 547 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 2: to Cincinnati and talk to Zach. Zach fire Away, you 548 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 2: have a comment on tipping. 549 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 12: Yeah, Hey, what's going on? Eddie and Rocky first love 550 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,960 Speaker 12: the show, guys. Thanks, Probably my one thing I look 551 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 12: forward to. 552 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,159 Speaker 1: After work every day, so appreciate it. 553 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 4: But yeah, absolutely no. 554 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 12: I actually used to be in the serving industry. I 555 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,040 Speaker 12: was at boy Ne Brasa for like two years while 556 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 12: I was in college. And I mean I'm not in 557 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 12: the servicing industry anymore. I mean idge broker now, so 558 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:05,119 Speaker 12: different kind of servicing. But one thing I definitely think 559 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 12: that had a bigger impact than the whole like COVID dilemma, 560 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,679 Speaker 12: is that you would get some of these you know, 561 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 12: ballplayers from Reds Bengals and a lot of the newer 562 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 12: recruits at UC football. They would just come in and 563 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 12: they would you know, tip top dollar to the servers, 564 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 12: and sometimes they would get the servers that had only 565 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 12: been there for a few months. Meanwhile, a lot of 566 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 12: the veterans that are seeing that that rookie server get 567 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,440 Speaker 12: a handsome tip. And I think that's where a lot 568 00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 12: of like the feud would like start the fire and 569 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 12: everybody would get you know, have some sort of I 570 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 12: don't know, I don't know how to call it, but 571 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 12: they would just have some type of feeling about that, 572 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 12: and I think that's kind of what generated it. I 573 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 12: don't know if that's how it is today, especially with 574 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 12: like the higher in restaurants like Jeff Rubies, et cetera. 575 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,959 Speaker 12: But I think it more resonated from you know, seeing 576 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 12: somebody get a huge five thousand dollars tip. I mean, 577 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 12: you see it with Chad O Chosinko all the time. 578 00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 12: He'll come into the restaurants and tip like five ten 579 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 12: grand and one server, but it doesn't get spread throughout 580 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 12: the pot. And uh, I think that's kind of where 581 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:25,360 Speaker 12: it all registers. I don't know what you're gonna say, No, Zach. 582 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: I think you make it an interesting point because I 583 00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 2: think if I were if I were in the shoes 584 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 2: of say a server who's been working at a place 585 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 2: for five years or ten years, whatever, and all of 586 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 2: a sudden, one waiter who was hadn't been there hardly 587 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 2: at all, some high roller came in, whether it was 588 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 2: a you know, top business guy or an athlete or something, 589 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,520 Speaker 2: and gave some exorbitant tip. 590 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: I guess I'd be upset, but I'd have to. 591 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:52,480 Speaker 2: Feel like that would over time, would would work itself 592 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 2: out right Again, I understand I would feel exactly the 593 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 2: way that that that they would, but I don't feel 594 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 2: like I feel like over time, I would still want 595 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 2: to be in charge of my own destiny. I would 596 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 2: want to be the one that day in day out, 597 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:08,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna work my hardest and over time I will 598 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:11,080 Speaker 2: get more tips than that person who happen to get lucky. 599 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:15,440 Speaker 12: One hundred percent. I agree with everything you're saying. I 600 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 12: feel that the person that's going to work the hardest, 601 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 12: serviceer clients the best. They are the ones that should 602 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 12: be rewarded for the tips that they make. Couldn't agree 603 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:28,080 Speaker 12: anymore with that statement. I think that probably one of 604 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 12: a few reasons that what changed the industry what it 605 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,160 Speaker 12: is today. And I think it should definitely go back, 606 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 12: because I mean, if I'm working my tail and some 607 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 12: kid billy that just got hired because he needs the 608 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 12: ext your job and he gets whatever from some random ballplayer, 609 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 12: I definitely agree with that statement. 610 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:49,600 Speaker 4: Definitely, I think it should go back. 611 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 12: You work your butt off, you get you get to. 612 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: Yeah.

We discussed this 752 00:38:23,440 --> 00:38:27,840 Speaker 2: a little bit yesterday, coming day one and two of 753 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 2: free agency, Bengals were smoking, We're on fire, and then 754 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,400 Speaker 2: like a lull happened in day. 755 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: One they were on fire. Yeah, and day two, day three, 756 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:43,759 Speaker 1: like what's going on? Where's the linebacker? And here we are? 757 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:46,160 Speaker 2: It's kind of here we are, and also reading a lot, 758 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:50,200 Speaker 2: especially giving out by our next guest here about how 759 00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 2: the structuring of some of the contracts of some of 760 00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: these free agents are in. It seemed to be in 761 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:58,560 Speaker 2: a way that's maybe helpful to the team and the cap, 762 00:38:58,640 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 2: but not so much in terms of helping build a 763 00:39:01,200 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 2: roster and adding the players that are needed that Joe 764 00:39:03,560 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 2: Burrow and everybody wants to to get this team to 765 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 2: do the level that they need to be at uh 766 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: here on to explain all this is our good pal 767 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 2: James Rapene. He's the host of Lockedown Bengals, host of 768 00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:17,280 Speaker 2: Cincinnati Bengals Talk on YouTube rights for Allbengals dot. 769 00:39:17,239 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: Com doesn't I must follow on Twitter on all this 770 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 1: a free agency and roster and draft, and I enjoy 771 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: I enjoy him on Twitter a lot. He's the best. 772 00:39:27,520 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 1: He joins us. 773 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:33,279 Speaker 2: Now, James Rapine, how are you, bud? Hey, James good. So, 774 00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,800 Speaker 2: I want to first start off, let's talk about again. 775 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 2: I was looking at what you were writing, I believe 776 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 2: was yesterday the day before, about how some of the 777 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 2: structures of these contracts of the free agents they signed, 778 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:48,399 Speaker 2: we're done in a way that I guess it wasn't 779 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 2: conducive to having the amount of money to be able 780 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 2: to sign more picks. 781 00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: Explain what we were where you were editioned out there. 782 00:39:56,320 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, Look, everyone's working on the same salary cap and 783 00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,239 Speaker 4: that's really high level. And I'm going to keep it 784 00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 4: really high level because we don't need to bore everyone 785 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:09,919 Speaker 4: with all of the details. But basically, NFL teams find 786 00:40:10,040 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 4: ways to fit more than other teams under the same 787 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:17,640 Speaker 4: salary cap. And part of that's with bonus structure, with 788 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 4: pro rating the bonus, which is pretty simple. It basically 789 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 4: means when do you pay that dollar from a cap standpoint, 790 00:40:27,880 --> 00:40:30,640 Speaker 4: not an actual cast standpoint, but from a cap standpoint. 791 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,960 Speaker 4: And the Bengals, like with Brian Cook and Boye Mafe, 792 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 4: those are the two big free agent signings, both good players, 793 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:40,319 Speaker 4: smart signings. Like both players, they should have signed them, 794 00:40:40,360 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 4: and they did. They could have created an extra seven 795 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 4: ish million dollars in cap space for this year by saying, yeah, 796 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 4: this this extra million dollars that we're pushing into saving 797 00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 4: for next year, we're going to pro rate it so 798 00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:59,000 Speaker 4: we have more room this year and we can add 799 00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:02,759 Speaker 4: more to our roster this year. And this guy's I 800 00:41:02,880 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 4: get it right now. People following along are like, well 801 00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,759 Speaker 4: that hurts them next year. Well it doesn't, because if 802 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,719 Speaker 4: they don't use that money this year, they don't use 803 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 4: that cap space, it just rolls over. So that's a 804 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 4: really high level way of saying, Look, the Bengals, they 805 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 4: could fit more under the cap than they do without 806 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,880 Speaker 4: being the Saints or the Dolphins or some of these 807 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 4: teams that have been really historically bad at pushing money 808 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:28,680 Speaker 4: into the future. Really simple, basic things that could be 809 00:41:28,719 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 4: the difference between getting a Jadavian Clowney or Joey Bosa 810 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 4: or a quality player that can help your defense versus 811 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 4: not having the space to afford those guys. 812 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,480 Speaker 2: So what would the Bengals say is the reason why 813 00:41:41,600 --> 00:41:44,080 Speaker 2: they chose to do it this way? There must be 814 00:41:44,160 --> 00:41:46,360 Speaker 2: a reason that from their perspective of, hey, this is 815 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 2: beneficial and you're not seeing. 816 00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 11: This, what is it? 817 00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:50,879 Speaker 8: Yeah. 818 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,439 Speaker 4: I've certainly been the person that has tried to ask 819 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:59,880 Speaker 4: about the structure of things at times, and it's because 820 00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:02,640 Speaker 4: I talk about them every day. I try to analyze 821 00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:05,600 Speaker 4: everything they do, and so it's part of the job 822 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:07,520 Speaker 4: and they'll brush it off. 823 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 5: But I think what they would tell you is twofold. 824 00:42:09,640 --> 00:42:14,439 Speaker 4: One, they're spending through the cap, were close to the cap. 825 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 5: Two, they don't want to put themselves in. 826 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,440 Speaker 4: Danger in future years and this wouldn't. And that's the 827 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 4: bottom line is it wouldn't. And I don't know why 828 00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 4: they do it this way. I guess to maintain unlimited 829 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:31,279 Speaker 4: future flexibility. But last I heard, Joe Burrow is going 830 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 4: to be thirty in December, right, like future flexibility, it's 831 00:42:35,000 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 4: twenty twenty six, It's not twenty twenty three. It's been 832 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:41,240 Speaker 4: a while since they've been in big games and truly 833 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 4: a championship contender. So these little things they don't really 834 00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:50,080 Speaker 4: change much but allow them to fit quality players under 835 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 4: their Umbrellay. Those are things that by the way, last 836 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,760 Speaker 4: year with Tee Higgins, it was the same thing they 837 00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:57,879 Speaker 4: did it with Tea, where they could have easily had 838 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: more cap space, more money to work with, or at 839 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 4: least more room. I should say that money versus space 840 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:06,080 Speaker 4: is different, more space to work with, and they didn't. 841 00:43:06,120 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 4: So this is something that they've done in recent years, especially. 842 00:43:09,000 --> 00:43:11,560 Speaker 1: Well James and and you're all over this, I think 843 00:43:11,640 --> 00:43:14,239 Speaker 1: probably more than anyone in the local media. Is that 844 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:17,080 Speaker 1: ultimately you're bringing attention to this and I know you 845 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,760 Speaker 1: can get down you know, not you, I'm just generally 846 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,439 Speaker 1: you know, you can get down rabbit holes on dead 847 00:43:22,520 --> 00:43:25,120 Speaker 1: cap space and cap space and what does all that mean? 848 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: But when, but when fans want to know why why 849 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: are they still doing things the exact same way, this 850 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: is you telling them. This is you drilling down and 851 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,879 Speaker 1: letting people know, this is why, this is the heart 852 00:43:37,960 --> 00:43:42,800 Speaker 1: of the reason why you know, and really on the 853 00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:47,239 Speaker 1: example level, shows why they don't change. You know, all 854 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: these other teams restructure contracts, they move money around. It's like, hey, 855 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 1: why is this team able to sign this guy? I 856 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,879 Speaker 1: thought they were already up to the cap and all that. Well, 857 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:58,360 Speaker 1: they restructured so and so's contract. We heard for so 858 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: many years the Chiefs restructured Patrick Mahomes' contract, you know. 859 00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 1: And but at the end of the day, like you know, 860 00:44:06,840 --> 00:44:10,560 Speaker 1: the Bengals, they they've done They've always done it this way, 861 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:14,120 Speaker 1: and it gets old to say it, and yet it's 862 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:17,680 Speaker 1: still pretty fascinating to think that they still do things 863 00:44:18,520 --> 00:44:21,239 Speaker 1: the exact same way. And we thought maybe this year, 864 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: especially after Day one, like you know, maybe. 865 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 2: That hey, this is the way we do it, and 866 00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 2: we think our recent I mean, they're not. It's not 867 00:44:29,680 --> 00:44:31,520 Speaker 2: like they're like, you know what, maybe we should think 868 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 2: and do it differently. 869 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 1: They're they're not. And what did you James, Yeah, you know, 870 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 1: I know we talked. But when they made those two 871 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: moves on day one, Mafe the edge and Cook the safety, 872 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: were you thinking, Oh, my gosh, is this are they 873 00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: gonna Are they going back to the you know, twenty 874 00:44:49,960 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 1: twenty twenty twenty one free agency mode? Here are they 875 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: going to do this better than they've ever done it before. 876 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: I mean, what was you were you thinking at that time? 877 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,000 Speaker 1: I know what you were thinking about, like tell our listeners. 878 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, no, I think one not sure, absolutely, I thought 879 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 4: I thought they knew what they needed to do coming in, Yeah, 880 00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:13,960 Speaker 4: which is addressed all three levels of their defense with 881 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,800 Speaker 4: proven guys that could come in and really matter. And 882 00:45:17,200 --> 00:45:20,399 Speaker 4: so my standard for them in free agency was five 883 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 4: starter level players on defense, two edges, one defensive tackle, 884 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,040 Speaker 4: one linebacker, one safety. And that's kind of like the 885 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: minimum for me, like for a high level grade, like 886 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 4: if you get that, and that's a lot. But guess what, 887 00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:35,440 Speaker 4: their defense stinks, so it needs a lot. And they 888 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,360 Speaker 4: didn't do anything in free agency last year of significance 889 00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 4: and so they needed to make up for lost time. 890 00:45:43,000 --> 00:45:45,240 Speaker 5: And so yeah, it's twofold. 891 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,320 Speaker 4: Like I think when they got cooked Mase done, I 892 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:49,279 Speaker 4: was like, man, look at all the talent still out there. 893 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 4: They could get a big time linebacker still. Obviously you 894 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,080 Speaker 4: had some of these potential defensive tackles that were being cut. 895 00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 4: You know, would they pull up a trade with the 896 00:45:59,360 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 4: Cowboys for Osa Diggi Zuo? I thought he was a 897 00:46:02,160 --> 00:46:04,520 Speaker 4: really good fit for them as a good pass roust 898 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 4: defensive tackle under contract for three years. It doesn't sound 899 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 4: like they got in on him, but like they had 900 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 4: options to make their defense better in a significant way. 901 00:46:13,480 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 5: And so yeah, I was optimistic then, and I think. 902 00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 4: That they were in on some of these other guys. 903 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 4: I think they tried on Tuesday and Wednesday and it 904 00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 4: didn't happen, and they missed out on some difference makers 905 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:29,359 Speaker 4: on defense, and you look up and it's just not enough. 906 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 4: Like I like all three players. It's grades day on 907 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 4: my show later on the end of the jungle in Cincinnati, 908 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 4: Bengals stuck. It's great left on Bengals today. It's grades 909 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,719 Speaker 4: that we're doing, and I like all three players. They 910 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:43,360 Speaker 4: get solid grades or better for the three guys they added. 911 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,399 Speaker 5: On defense, but it's just not enough. 912 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,279 Speaker 4: And especially when you consider what they lost or what 913 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 4: left in free agency, we needed to see more. So yeah, 914 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:55,120 Speaker 4: it was an optimistic start and then it was it 915 00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 4: was like eating water in a desert because it was 916 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:02,040 Speaker 4: two days of nothing. Yeah, it's been a tough I 917 00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,400 Speaker 4: would say tough nine days overall, even though. 918 00:47:04,239 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 5: I like the three players that they added. 919 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 1: The toughest one and James Repena is our guests. 920 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:13,320 Speaker 2: The toughest one is understanding the lack of adding a linebacker, 921 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:17,160 Speaker 2: because I heard Al Golden at the Combine talk about it. 922 00:47:17,239 --> 00:47:18,759 Speaker 2: I heard the I mean, I mean, it was like, 923 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 2: this is what we want to do. And then it 924 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,160 Speaker 2: came and went with, you know, kind of the top 925 00:47:24,320 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 2: linebacker free agents Bengals didn't sign anybody. Leo Chanel is 926 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 2: the one that the Bengals you know, seemingly might have 927 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,120 Speaker 2: missed out on. I believe it was a contract he 928 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:38,320 Speaker 2: wound up getting for eight million a year, which the 929 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: Bengals had the money to had the money to pay 930 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,600 Speaker 2: that easily had the money to do that. 931 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:45,560 Speaker 1: What do you think happened there? 932 00:47:45,600 --> 00:47:47,800 Speaker 2: Did they just think, Wow, that just seems like a 933 00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 2: little too much, even though the market in these days is, hey, 934 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 2: a top free agent linebacker gets eight plus million dollars 935 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:55,319 Speaker 2: a year. 936 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 1: Is that what happened there with that one? 937 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 4: Hey? I don't know if they were all the way 938 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:04,520 Speaker 4: in on Chanala player, but it certainly made sense from 939 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 4: my vantage point, But just from a coaching perspective, now, 940 00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:08,800 Speaker 4: were they in on linebacker? 941 00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 5: Absolutely? 942 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 4: Did Al Golden won a linebacker? You bet? To bet 943 00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 4: fifteen million. He wanted a linebacker, and they were, you know, 944 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 4: talking with guys that were making that. 945 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 5: Like I think they were in on a play walker 946 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 5: who had ties. 947 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 4: With Jerry Montgomery and Green Bay, the Bengals defensive defensive 948 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,920 Speaker 4: line coach right now, and he ended up going out 949 00:48:27,960 --> 00:48:30,759 Speaker 4: west of Las Vegas. So look, it's yeah, that one 950 00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 4: is puzzling because you look at there's a reason I 951 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:37,319 Speaker 4: set all three levels, like they needed a proven guy 952 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,280 Speaker 4: in that room, and it is a good draft class 953 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 4: for linebacker, Like I wouldn't have signed two guys. I 954 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,520 Speaker 4: would have just went with one, because you want to 955 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:49,480 Speaker 4: leave the door open to draft one of these linebackers 956 00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:51,320 Speaker 4: in this class because there's just a lot of talent, 957 00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 4: like the two linebackers they got last year with both 958 00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 4: the Day three picks and like maybe late later day 959 00:48:58,200 --> 00:49:00,560 Speaker 4: three picks. I mean, it's it's just a much different 960 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:03,840 Speaker 4: group and crop of talent this year at that spot 961 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:08,080 Speaker 4: in this draft. So when you combine that together, get 962 00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:10,719 Speaker 4: one and then leave yourself open if you don't get 963 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,439 Speaker 4: one in the draft. If it doesn't line up, fine, 964 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,719 Speaker 4: but at least you've got a guy. And now they 965 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 4: have this glaring need at linebacker, and for my money, 966 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 4: clear need at edge. Oh and by the way, they 967 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,480 Speaker 4: don't have a nickel corner Like there's just things like 968 00:49:24,600 --> 00:49:28,239 Speaker 4: that where it's like, oh, well, there's a lot of 969 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 4: potential needs and you weren't going to fill every single 970 00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 4: nook and cranny of the roster. I get that the 971 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:37,880 Speaker 4: linebacker was something that I certainly expected them to address early, 972 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 4: and I think they were expecting to address it early, 973 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:44,560 Speaker 4: and for one reason or another, that didn't get done. 974 00:49:44,600 --> 00:49:46,200 Speaker 4: And now you kind of look at what's out there, 975 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,760 Speaker 4: and even if you do add one of these veterans, 976 00:49:49,640 --> 00:49:52,120 Speaker 4: it's still going to be a question mark for sure 977 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:54,280 Speaker 4: going into the Drafty. 978 00:49:54,400 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 1: It's you're Bengals fan. You're sitting here, You're just disappointed, 979 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:02,880 Speaker 1: and you got to be feeling like, uh, okay, you 980 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:06,319 Speaker 1: made you made some steps, but you didn't go all 981 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,200 Speaker 1: in as as uh Duke Tobin says, they're all in 982 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:15,120 Speaker 1: And now you're you're back to relying heavily on the 983 00:50:15,280 --> 00:50:18,479 Speaker 1: draft James, And uh, how many times have we seen 984 00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 1: this not work? Especially on defense? Do you what, I 985 00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 1: guess you're number one thing, like the number one thing? Uh, 986 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,719 Speaker 1: I guess who do you This is James doing this 987 00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 1: like mock draft you who do you got? Who do 988 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:36,319 Speaker 1: you got to get? 989 00:50:36,440 --> 00:50:36,480 Speaker 4: What? 990 00:50:36,800 --> 00:50:40,400 Speaker 1: What position would that first round pick or what player 991 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 1: do you really want to see? Who could actually come 992 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:46,920 Speaker 1: in here? And Okay, that guy will right day one 993 00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,040 Speaker 1: improve this defense or help improve it. 994 00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, the last part of your question is the important part, 995 00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,319 Speaker 4: because I I you're talking to someone that doesn't give 996 00:50:55,320 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 4: a damn about the position. 997 00:50:56,760 --> 00:50:58,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, you talk a lot about it. 998 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, I try to hammer it home because all these 999 00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:05,320 Speaker 4: people are you better believe, like two months ago, everyone 1000 00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 4: just cut off one side of the ball and you 1001 00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 4: just can't grasp that way. 1002 00:51:08,600 --> 00:51:09,760 Speaker 1: You can't. 1003 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 4: And so the goal for free agency should always be 1004 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:13,959 Speaker 4: to fill the needs, and then. 1005 00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:15,840 Speaker 5: The draft you pick your best players available. 1006 00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 4: The good news is is in a lot of scenarios, 1007 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 4: defense is certainly the best player available at ten. And 1008 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:27,279 Speaker 4: you think about it, some of the green scenarios would 1009 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 4: be a David Bailey who's just going to give you 1010 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,320 Speaker 4: a ton of juice off the edge. Might not be 1011 00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 4: as good against the run, but just give you a 1012 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 4: bunch of juice. I don't think he's going to be there. 1013 00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:36,279 Speaker 5: I think that's probably the. 1014 00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:40,280 Speaker 4: Sky Rvel Reef. I think the Bengals would love funny styles. 1015 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,479 Speaker 4: I think if he somehow gets there at ten, would 1016 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 4: certainly be high on the Bengals board and would make 1017 00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:48,080 Speaker 4: an instant impact. But the two guys I'm thinking of 1018 00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:51,480 Speaker 4: and their flow for one reason or another, that might 1019 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:54,520 Speaker 4: hit them to ten. Caleb Downs out of Ohio State. 1020 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 4: I mentioned Nickel Corner. He comes in right away and 1021 00:51:56,719 --> 00:51:59,080 Speaker 4: he's going to start. He's going to play eight hundred 1022 00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 4: stats for he as a rock, he can play safety. 1023 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,239 Speaker 4: You can use him as this defensive weapon. I love 1024 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:07,000 Speaker 4: the idea of it, as long as they use him 1025 00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,360 Speaker 4: all over the field, which they had the opportunity, by 1026 00:52:09,360 --> 00:52:10,680 Speaker 4: the way to do with back Sell a few years 1027 00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,800 Speaker 4: ago and didn't do, so that is worth noting. But 1028 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:15,040 Speaker 4: I do think that you could plug him in right 1029 00:52:15,120 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 4: away and he can have an incident impact. And then 1030 00:52:17,239 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 4: the other one is Ruben Bay and the reason he 1031 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 4: would fall being a premier defensive end in this draft 1032 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:24,359 Speaker 4: is because of his arm length. 1033 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,640 Speaker 5: And so if he does fall to ten, I think he. 1034 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 4: Is going to make an impact. 1035 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:30,840 Speaker 5: Right away, and the Bengals would say, see, James. 1036 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,440 Speaker 4: We got our edge. We didn't need to do it, 1037 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,319 Speaker 4: and that's fine, maybe it works out. 1038 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 5: That way, but it's March, not April, and you never 1039 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 5: know what's going to happen. 1040 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 4: So the two guys that I think no brainer realistically 1041 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 4: could be there at ten, and if they are there 1042 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,759 Speaker 4: at ten or no brainer picks would be Caleb Downs 1043 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:47,399 Speaker 4: and Ruben Bay. 1044 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,320 Speaker 1: I don't disagree. I don't know. 1045 00:52:50,360 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 2: Maybe he's just because I'm down about everything. I just 1046 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,440 Speaker 2: feel like like some players aren't going to be there 1047 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 2: and we're going to overdraft, like a guard. We're gonna 1048 00:52:58,120 --> 00:53:01,960 Speaker 2: get like an offensive guard. James's gonna happen, and it's 1049 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,400 Speaker 2: going to be someone who's probably should be drafted at like, 1050 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:07,560 Speaker 2: you know, eighteen or nineteen, but we're gonna get him 1051 00:53:07,600 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 2: at ten because that's just what happens. 1052 00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:11,640 Speaker 1: I don't know, I'm negative. 1053 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, my jains scenario is Jeremiah Love falls there, but 1054 00:53:16,040 --> 00:53:16,919 Speaker 2: I don't see that happen. 1055 00:53:17,000 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 4: Well, I was gonna mention that like that was mine. 1056 00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,480 Speaker 4: I had this whole thing, like I had the whole 1057 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:26,279 Speaker 4: idea planned out, but they needed to do more on defense, right, 1058 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,879 Speaker 4: you know, because Jeremiah Love comes in here and he's 1059 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:32,320 Speaker 4: you play with the cold like when you have a 1060 00:53:32,480 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 4: juice like that at running back. It changes everything and 1061 00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 4: the Chase Brown's good. But Jeremiah Love is on another level. 1062 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 4: I don't yet, and I loved him a couple of 1063 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:45,520 Speaker 4: years ago. I just I don't think they would be 1064 00:53:45,680 --> 00:53:47,320 Speaker 4: comfortable enough with themselves. 1065 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 5: I would do it, but comfortable enough. 1066 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:52,799 Speaker 4: With themselves to be like, we're taking Jeremiah Love over 1067 00:53:53,880 --> 00:53:54,760 Speaker 4: insert whoever. 1068 00:53:54,880 --> 00:53:55,480 Speaker 5: On defense. 1069 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,760 Speaker 4: I think they'd be too worried about positional. 1070 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,120 Speaker 5: Value and all those things. But I agree, I'm on 1071 00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:01,239 Speaker 5: love it ten for sure. 1072 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:01,600 Speaker 4: For me. 1073 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,560 Speaker 1: From my perspective, they're going to get a guard. 1074 00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 2: James correct quarterback, quarter quarterback, James, listen, fantastic stuff, Bro, 1075 00:54:11,960 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 2: We really appreciate it.

So if we're producing most 1123 00:56:39,239 --> 00:56:42,120 Speaker 2: of our own oil and gas, why is what's happening 1124 00:56:42,160 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 2: in Iran affecting our gas prices? 1125 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:47,840 Speaker 1: Well, that's a great question all around. 1126 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 6: And it is because of how much oil we produce 1127 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 6: in America that the price of the oil haven't gone 1128 00:56:55,080 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 6: up even higher. 1129 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:58,640 Speaker 1: Let me say that again, because. 1130 00:56:58,320 --> 00:57:00,960 Speaker 6: Of the fourteen million barrels of oil a day that 1131 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:05,279 Speaker 6: the United States produces the price of oil globally has 1132 00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,759 Speaker 6: not gone up higher.

And 1155 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 6: I don't think anybody's deterring from that program right now. 1156 00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 6: If we see oil continue at these high prices over 1157 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 6: the next three to four weeks, I could definitely see 1158 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:39,560 Speaker 6: the opportunity to start looking at ramping up oil production. 1159 00:58:40,120 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 6: Keep in mind, guys, that we're again that fourteen million 1160 00:58:43,120 --> 00:58:45,959 Speaker 6: barrels of oil a day and we're only at over 1161 00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:51,960 Speaker 6: five hundred drilling rigs across America. Just seven eight years 1162 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:55,000 Speaker 6: ago we were at eight hundred rigs, give or take, 1163 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:56,760 Speaker 6: and we are producing. 1164 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:58,160 Speaker 1: Nine million barrels of oil. 1165 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:02,680 Speaker 6: It's because of the efficient see and the longer laterals 1166 00:59:02,760 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 6: that we're able to now extract from more oil from 1167 00:59:06,160 --> 00:59:07,120 Speaker 6: less oil wells. 1168 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 1: Is the let's let's play hypothetical, and we got to 1169 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 1: the point where we could, uh, you know, produce the 1170 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:18,040 Speaker 1: amount of oil that our country needed today and even 1171 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,760 Speaker 1: have reserves and long term we don't have to rely 1172 00:59:20,920 --> 00:59:24,760 Speaker 1: on anyone else. Is that even is that even possible 1173 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,440 Speaker 1: to even do that for the in the in the 1174 00:59:27,600 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 1: world economy, in the world scale, or is it just 1175 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:34,760 Speaker 1: so complex our relationships with other countries that that just 1176 00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:36,200 Speaker 1: couldn't even happen. 1177 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 6: Short answer is no and yes no, because you're correct, 1178 00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:44,880 Speaker 6: it is so complex that oil is a global commodity. 1179 00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:49,840 Speaker 6: Now getting to the yetes, Texas just announce, the great 1180 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:53,040 Speaker 6: State of Texas just announce, along with the Trump administration, 1181 00:59:53,200 --> 00:59:57,280 Speaker 6: that we are building the first brand new refinery in 1182 00:59:57,360 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 6: America in fifty years, and that be done here in 1183 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:05,120 Speaker 6: Brownsville at the near the Port of Brownsville. And what 1184 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:10,400 Speaker 6: makes this so significant is this port will produce and 1185 01:00:10,560 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 6: refine over one hundred and fifty thousand barrels a day 1186 01:00:14,680 --> 01:00:18,960 Speaker 6: of sweet Texas crude and oil that is actually produced 1187 01:00:19,000 --> 01:00:19,720 Speaker 6: here in America. 1188 01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 1: That is huge news that we can now refine. 1189 01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 6: Basically permium basin oil with literally a pipeline, and that 1190 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 6: will get us more towards energy independence than ever before. 1191 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 1: Rocky and Jason. 1192 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,280 Speaker 6: Right now the majority, I would say seventy five percent 1193 01:00:36,400 --> 01:00:41,040 Speaker 6: of all refineries in America can only refine ex imported 1194 01:00:41,120 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 6: oil from. 1195 01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:45,320 Speaker 1: Places like the Middle East in Venezuela. And this gets 1196 01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:46,240 Speaker 1: us one step. 1197 01:00:46,160 --> 01:00:51,400 Speaker 2: Closer to true American energy independence. And Ray, you just 1198 01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:55,040 Speaker 2: mentioned Venezuela. That was my next question with us, you know, 1199 01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 2: Alison Maduro, And there was some oil the US was 1200 01:00:59,440 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 2: gonna be able to to get in that deal. How 1201 01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 2: much is that? How much of that have we acquired. 1202 01:01:04,160 --> 01:01:06,440 Speaker 2: Is that is there more of a supply of that? 1203 01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:07,360 Speaker 2: How does that play in? 1204 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:12,120 Speaker 6: There are so many rumors on what has actually happened 1205 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 6: to that oil. The best thing I can say is 1206 01:01:15,800 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 6: that this administration has cut a deal with India to 1207 01:01:19,520 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 6: now buy India oil. All that excuse me, for India 1208 01:01:23,600 --> 01:01:27,680 Speaker 6: to now buy oil from Venezuela at a reasonable rate, 1209 01:01:27,880 --> 01:01:31,320 Speaker 6: not the ridiculously low rates that Venezuela was already selling 1210 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:31,640 Speaker 6: you at. 1211 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,080 Speaker 1: So that's where a lot of that oil is now going. 1212 01:01:35,760 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 6: Also with Venezuela, make no doubt about it, ladies and gentlemen, 1213 01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 6: Venezuela was an exercise for Iran. Let me say that 1214 01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 6: one more time and they tell you what I mean. Okay, 1215 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:56,520 Speaker 6: So Venezuela was an exercise for Iran. The United States 1216 01:01:56,760 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 6: controls Venezuela's economy through Venezuelan oil. We now control all 1217 01:02:03,120 --> 01:02:07,920 Speaker 6: the oil that is bought and sold in Venezuela. That 1218 01:02:08,600 --> 01:02:11,920 Speaker 6: money is actually now going through Katar or Cutter, however 1219 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 6: you want to say it, and we manage those funds. 1220 01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:21,520 Speaker 6: It is rumored that Iran spends two billion dollars a year. 1221 01:02:21,600 --> 01:02:24,960 Speaker 6: That's billion with a B dollars a year on money 1222 01:02:25,320 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 6: to terrorism through their oil cells. So I have no 1223 01:02:30,680 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 6: doubt that when this conflict is over, the United States 1224 01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:39,480 Speaker 6: well once again, well now, excuse me, control Iran's three 1225 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:42,720 Speaker 6: million barrels of oil a day, bring it back to 1226 01:02:42,840 --> 01:02:48,760 Speaker 6: a global, respectable oil producer in the world, and basically 1227 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:53,880 Speaker 6: knock out any terrorism dollars that go in through Iranian money. 1228 01:02:54,400 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 1: This is a web. 1229 01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 6: So getting back to the no on the question a 1230 01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 6: few minutes ago, yet oil and glass is a global issue. 1231 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:05,960 Speaker 1: It's interesting what you just laid out. 1232 01:03:06,000 --> 01:03:10,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, if the US can can just obliterate Iran 1233 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 2: to the point where they can't now sell their oil 1234 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 2: to gain money to do terroristic activities to the tune 1235 01:03:17,040 --> 01:03:19,880 Speaker 2: of two billion dollars, which you mentioned, that's a good thing. 1236 01:03:21,480 --> 01:03:24,560 Speaker 6: Absolutely, guys, And I'm gonna I'm gonna get all get 1237 01:03:24,600 --> 01:03:28,960 Speaker 6: a little excited with you, guys, And you'll know how 1238 01:03:28,960 --> 01:03:31,920 Speaker 6: I always like to share just the facts that are 1239 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:35,800 Speaker 6: going on. Yes, think about this for a minutes.

The United States has positioned itself in 1242 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:47,840 Speaker 6: the world, undoubtedly as the number one. We went into 1243 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 6: Iran and decimated their military in less than two weeks. 1244 01:03:53,400 --> 01:03:57,000 Speaker 6: That's probably a fact. Obviously none of us are getting 1245 01:03:57,080 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 6: over there to look. But we went into another country 1246 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 6: estimated it in two weeks. On the paper, China has 1247 01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:08,720 Speaker 6: a strong economy and is a strong nation, and that 1248 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:12,360 Speaker 6: is on paper. No one truly knows their economy and 1249 01:04:12,480 --> 01:04:17,240 Speaker 6: what their military can or can't do. And Russia has 1250 01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 6: been at war, unfortunately with a country like Ukraine for 1251 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:25,040 Speaker 6: four years. A message was sent around the world that 1252 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 6: the United States is still number one. 1253 01:04:28,120 --> 01:04:31,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know, I wonder how many people look 1254 01:04:32,000 --> 01:04:34,720 Speaker 2: at it that way, but I certainly do. And I 1255 01:04:34,800 --> 01:04:38,120 Speaker 2: think you make a good point here. I think it's 1256 01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:41,360 Speaker 2: as so much is politics, as you know, Rtie, and 1257 01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:45,240 Speaker 2: it's it's kind of unfortunate in my opinion.

And where where did that all go wrong? 1280 01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:45,320 Speaker 1: At some point along the line of the economy? And 1281 01:05:45,960 --> 01:05:49,280 Speaker 1: why did we never what's the automobile? And we knew 1282 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,800 Speaker 1: we needed oil? Like why did we never not just 1283 01:05:51,920 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 1: go on our out with our own oil? 1284 01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 2: Well, we we wanted to, but but the the green 1285 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:59,480 Speaker 2: crazies stepped in, all the global warming nut jobs stepped 1286 01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:03,440 Speaker 2: in and stopped all of it.

This was in the Wall Street Journal. 1343 01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:01,960 Speaker 2: America now has more gyms and spot then stores stores 1344 01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 2: that are selling stuff. So they looked at like, you know, 1345 01:09:06,080 --> 01:09:09,639 Speaker 2: businesses that are leasing and you know and pain rent 1346 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,920 Speaker 2: and all that sort of thing, and service based tenants 1347 01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:17,160 Speaker 2: least over over fifty percent of total retail square footage. 1348 01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:18,360 Speaker 1: For the longest time. 1349 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 2: It was like when you think of a store, a 1350 01:09:20,040 --> 01:09:22,800 Speaker 2: store is something you go into buy, you buy stuff 1351 01:09:23,280 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 2: I got, like an actual product that you walk out 1352 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,040 Speaker 2: of there with. Now a lot of it is service 1353 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 2: based stuff and a lot of these things they're talking about. 1354 01:09:31,640 --> 01:09:35,400 Speaker 2: And I know, because this whole health sector is boomed, 1355 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 2: but the whole wellness thing. So I mean, just across 1356 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:42,560 Speaker 2: the street there's a it's called Cincinnati Cryo. You the 1357 01:09:42,600 --> 01:09:45,800 Speaker 2: amount of gyms, amount of Planet Fitnesses, and you know 1358 01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:47,920 Speaker 2: all these other you know, there's sauna places. 1359 01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, there's Orange Theory. There's right right right. So 1360 01:09:54,720 --> 01:09:56,760 Speaker 1: I give them a lot of money every month, not 1361 01:09:56,880 --> 01:10:00,639 Speaker 1: for me but my wife.

But I 1365 01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:13,639 Speaker 2: just I just felt like that was like kind of startling, 1366 01:10:13,760 --> 01:10:16,600 Speaker 2: like wow, like most you know, over fifty percent of 1367 01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:19,160 Speaker 2: the stores you drive by, you don't walk in and 1368 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,439 Speaker 2: get a product that you walk out of holding your 1369 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:26,200 Speaker 2: hand with. It's something that's again a service, whether you 1370 01:10:26,320 --> 01:10:27,800 Speaker 2: make your car or whatever. 1371 01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,000 Speaker 1: You make a good point too, because the brick and 1372 01:10:30,080 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 1: mortar store has been taken like Amazon, Like yeah, I 1373 01:10:33,880 --> 01:10:35,760 Speaker 1: mean I've become I used to be this guy like 1374 01:10:35,840 --> 01:10:39,120 Speaker 1: and I grew up. My grandfather owned owned a men's 1375 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:42,840 Speaker 1: clothing store. I love that, you know, I love I 1376 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:45,799 Speaker 1: love the small business.

With more on this or 1874 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:59,320 Speaker 2: our good friend from ABC, Jordana Miller, Jordana, what is 1875 01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:00,400 Speaker 2: the latest there. 1876 01:35:01,800 --> 01:35:06,040 Speaker 23: Well, the Israelis say they have killed Ali Larijani in 1877 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:07,680 Speaker 23: a targeted assassination. 1878 01:35:08,760 --> 01:35:09,280 Speaker 19: He is. 1879 01:35:10,880 --> 01:35:16,080 Speaker 23: Technically he is the head of the National Defense Council 1880 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:22,200 Speaker 23: in Iran. But since the assassination of the Supreme Leader 1881 01:35:22,720 --> 01:35:25,920 Speaker 23: in the opening strike of this campaign by the US 1882 01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:32,200 Speaker 23: and Israel, since the assassination of the Supreme Leader, Ali Cromene, 1883 01:35:33,000 --> 01:35:37,719 Speaker 23: Ali Larjani has essentially been running Iran. He's been running 1884 01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:42,200 Speaker 23: and leading and making the major decisions on Iran's military 1885 01:35:42,360 --> 01:35:49,880 Speaker 23: response and on their political response. So essentially this was 1886 01:35:50,800 --> 01:35:56,080 Speaker 23: the takedown of Iran's de facto leader, so really a 1887 01:35:56,240 --> 01:36:01,479 Speaker 23: huge blow to Iran's control and command and obviously meant 1888 01:36:01,520 --> 01:36:08,000 Speaker 23: to to sow chaos and disorder and again disrupt Iran's 1889 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:11,880 Speaker 23: ability to you know, fight in this in this war 1890 01:36:12,000 --> 01:36:17,559 Speaker 23: against the US and Israel. The Israelis also took out 1891 01:36:18,040 --> 01:36:21,360 Speaker 23: the general who's been in charge of the besiege. That's 1892 01:36:21,439 --> 01:36:27,040 Speaker 23: the very repressive arm of the regime. The besiege. Just 1893 01:36:27,120 --> 01:36:33,840 Speaker 23: to remind our listeners, the besiege are the the the 1894 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:38,559 Speaker 23: armed men on the streets of Iran who essentially killed 1895 01:36:39,280 --> 01:36:43,880 Speaker 23: thousands of Iranians, you know, at sometimes even you know, 1896 01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:51,799 Speaker 23: at close range during the protests, just in January. For decades, 1897 01:36:51,880 --> 01:36:55,120 Speaker 23: they've been known as the uh you know, the the 1898 01:36:55,240 --> 01:37:00,560 Speaker 23: dark underbelly of Iran's brutality, you know, in prisoning and 1899 01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:06,719 Speaker 23: killing Iranians and political opponents of the regime and Jordana. 1900 01:37:06,840 --> 01:37:09,840 Speaker 2: It's I hear you say all those things, and like 1901 01:37:09,920 --> 01:37:12,519 Speaker 2: a lot of the news we get over here seems 1902 01:37:12,560 --> 01:37:14,479 Speaker 2: to make it out like things are not going well 1903 01:37:14,560 --> 01:37:16,519 Speaker 2: over there, and the US is you know. 1904 01:37:16,640 --> 01:37:18,240 Speaker 1: Is kind of getting handed to them. But then we 1905 01:37:18,320 --> 01:37:19,880 Speaker 1: talked to you, you read some other articles. 1906 01:37:19,880 --> 01:37:23,760 Speaker 2: I read an article out of Al Jazeera today, and 1907 01:37:23,760 --> 01:37:25,559 Speaker 2: it sounds like things are going pretty well. I mean, 1908 01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:29,280 Speaker 2: when you know, a war is unfortunately or fortunately about 1909 01:37:29,560 --> 01:37:32,360 Speaker 2: killing the other side and it's leadership, and it sounds 1910 01:37:32,439 --> 01:37:34,240 Speaker 2: like the US is doing a lot of that. 1911 01:37:34,360 --> 01:37:34,800 Speaker 1: Am I wrong? 1912 01:37:36,760 --> 01:37:39,720 Speaker 23: Well, I think if we look at just purely the 1913 01:37:39,880 --> 01:37:44,320 Speaker 23: military aspect or dimension of the war, there's no doubt 1914 01:37:44,520 --> 01:37:49,640 Speaker 23: that the United States and Israel have really pounded Iran's 1915 01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:52,480 Speaker 23: military capabilities. 1916 01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:52,800 Speaker 1: Right. 1917 01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:57,240 Speaker 23: They have decimated the navy, they've taken out the air force. 1918 01:37:57,880 --> 01:38:03,440 Speaker 23: They have destroyed, you know, almost all of their missile launchers. 1919 01:38:04,040 --> 01:38:08,040 Speaker 23: The latest stat is somewhere around seventy five percent. They've 1920 01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:12,040 Speaker 23: taken out not only you know, silos and silos of missiles, 1921 01:38:12,280 --> 01:38:16,400 Speaker 23: ballistic missiles, but they've taken out factories for example around 1922 01:38:16,479 --> 01:38:22,040 Speaker 23: Sharaz where, right, factories where they are trying to you know, 1923 01:38:22,240 --> 01:38:26,519 Speaker 23: prevent Iran from being able to actually build more missiles. Right. 1924 01:38:27,640 --> 01:38:32,800 Speaker 23: But I think where you know, where I think, you know, 1925 01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:36,839 Speaker 23: the United States and Israel are still you know, there's 1926 01:38:36,840 --> 01:38:39,439 Speaker 23: always going to be challenges in a war. This one 1927 01:38:39,800 --> 01:38:42,040 Speaker 23: seems to be around two issues. The first is that 1928 01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:47,960 Speaker 23: the Iranians have been able to essentially block the Strait 1929 01:38:48,000 --> 01:38:51,800 Speaker 23: of Hormuz. They're letting their own vessels through and some 1930 01:38:52,200 --> 01:38:55,639 Speaker 23: that they approve, right, but there's a huge chokeol there. 1931 01:38:55,720 --> 01:38:58,000 Speaker 23: We see that the Iranians have been able to drive 1932 01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:01,240 Speaker 23: up oil and natural gas prices and that is one 1933 01:39:01,280 --> 01:39:04,640 Speaker 23: of their quote unquote best weapons as they try to 1934 01:39:04,760 --> 01:39:09,320 Speaker 23: pressure President Trump to end the war. The other one 1935 01:39:10,120 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 23: that may have been underestimated was Iron's ability with their 1936 01:39:13,400 --> 01:39:20,240 Speaker 23: drones to hit a US military assets, embassies, gas and 1937 01:39:20,320 --> 01:39:21,960 Speaker 23: oil fields in the golf. 1938 01:39:22,400 --> 01:39:22,519 Speaker 1: Right. 1939 01:39:23,040 --> 01:39:27,240 Speaker 23: I'm not sure that the United States expected Iran would 1940 01:39:27,360 --> 01:39:32,160 Speaker 23: hit the golf so hard and so fast, And again 1941 01:39:32,360 --> 01:39:35,920 Speaker 23: I think Iran thought that would bring, you know, pressure, 1942 01:39:36,000 --> 01:39:39,519 Speaker 23: bear pressure on President Trump. But in that case, I 1943 01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:43,800 Speaker 23: think the golf has actually the people like the Saudis 1944 01:39:44,000 --> 01:39:49,320 Speaker 23: right and cutter. They're so angry, right that they've actually 1945 01:39:49,360 --> 01:39:52,040 Speaker 23: come closer to the United States and we For example, 1946 01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:55,800 Speaker 23: there were several leaked reports today about the Saudis telling 1947 01:39:55,880 --> 01:39:58,240 Speaker 23: President Trump that they want him to go, you know, 1948 01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:00,880 Speaker 23: all the way till regime change. 1949 01:40:01,080 --> 01:40:01,200 Speaker 18: Right. 1950 01:40:01,280 --> 01:40:04,160 Speaker 2: Well, and that's great, but are these other countries that 1951 01:40:04,240 --> 01:40:06,439 Speaker 2: are cheering us on are they going to jump in 1952 01:40:06,560 --> 01:40:08,800 Speaker 2: and help us? Because that's what President Trump was talking 1953 01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:11,360 Speaker 2: about this morning, if I'm not mistaken, like, hey, what 1954 01:40:11,560 --> 01:40:14,240 Speaker 2: are these other countries around here that we're helping out 1955 01:40:14,280 --> 01:40:16,200 Speaker 2: when you're going to join in the fight and yeah, 1956 01:40:16,280 --> 01:40:18,560 Speaker 2: let's all together come in and take out this this 1957 01:40:18,720 --> 01:40:19,400 Speaker 2: terrible regime. 1958 01:40:20,920 --> 01:40:23,960 Speaker 23: Right Well, I think when the President was asking for help, 1959 01:40:24,040 --> 01:40:28,160 Speaker 23: it was specifically about the Strait of Hormuz, right coming 1960 01:40:28,280 --> 01:40:32,439 Speaker 23: in and helping to secure secure vessels to go through there. 1961 01:40:33,960 --> 01:40:37,360 Speaker 23: You know, the Europeans, who rely on the oil that 1962 01:40:37,520 --> 01:40:41,080 Speaker 23: comes through there a lot more than the United States, right, 1963 01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:45,519 Speaker 23: have not really jumped on board, right, the French, the British, 1964 01:40:46,760 --> 01:40:49,680 Speaker 23: and I think that's where the President is disappointed. But 1965 01:40:49,840 --> 01:40:55,040 Speaker 23: other countries, we would expect them to waver a bit 1966 01:40:55,360 --> 01:40:59,040 Speaker 23: right because they're not necessarily our allies, like the Chinese. 1967 01:40:59,400 --> 01:41:04,519 Speaker 23: The Chinese, right, the Chinese rely very heavily on the 1968 01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:09,680 Speaker 23: straight of hormones for their oil. So you know, I 1969 01:41:09,840 --> 01:41:15,439 Speaker 23: think you know here in Israel, I know the president 1970 01:41:15,560 --> 01:41:19,439 Speaker 23: in America, obviously he has a lot of political pressures 1971 01:41:19,520 --> 01:41:23,599 Speaker 23: and he's being pulled in several different directions. But here 1972 01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:25,840 Speaker 23: in Israel, I think a country that is used to 1973 01:41:27,800 --> 01:41:31,479 Speaker 23: used to war, unfortunately, and not just a few years, 1974 01:41:31,600 --> 01:41:34,240 Speaker 23: but in its history it's bought quite a few wars. 1975 01:41:35,400 --> 01:41:38,400 Speaker 23: And I think the leaders here are quite upfront with 1976 01:41:38,520 --> 01:41:42,479 Speaker 23: the public about wars. And you know, we're hearing here 1977 01:41:42,760 --> 01:41:46,280 Speaker 23: that the president has already told the Israelis right that 1978 01:41:46,400 --> 01:41:48,360 Speaker 23: the war is going to go on for a few 1979 01:41:48,400 --> 01:41:53,960 Speaker 23: more weeks at least, right, and the Israelis here, I mean, 1980 01:41:54,360 --> 01:41:57,439 Speaker 23: there's a lot of very smart analysts here obviously have 1981 01:41:57,520 --> 01:42:00,519 Speaker 23: been covering the Iran file for a long time. But 1982 01:42:01,439 --> 01:42:06,120 Speaker 23: you know, the you know, the growing suspicion here is 1983 01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:10,040 Speaker 23: that the president may try to uh with a with 1984 01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:14,400 Speaker 23: a joint you know, land and air incursion, try to 1985 01:42:14,439 --> 01:42:16,559 Speaker 23: get control of the straight offoe moves. 1986 01:42:17,120 --> 01:42:20,400 Speaker 2: Well, we shall see, Jordan, tremendous update. We really appreciate 1987 01:42:20,400 --> 01:42:21,720 Speaker 2: your time on us.

Uh. 1996 01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:50,200 Speaker 1: Anyway, he has come out and he is blasting Los 1997 01:42:50,240 --> 01:42:54,040 Speaker 1: Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for her comments. Remember the heat 1998 01:42:54,080 --> 01:42:57,760 Speaker 1: wave that was hitting the Reds last week where they 1999 01:42:57,800 --> 01:42:59,880 Speaker 1: had to move some game times. Well that that same 2000 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:04,040 Speaker 1: heat wave has hit southern California as well, unseasonably hot 2001 01:43:04,160 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 1: weather there. But during the press conference for this just 2002 01:43:08,160 --> 01:43:12,720 Speaker 1: the other day, Mayor Karen Bass went went on, went 2003 01:43:13,680 --> 01:43:17,320 Speaker 1: said people should go to cooling centers, and she said 2004 01:43:17,360 --> 01:43:19,680 Speaker 1: there are plenty of apartments in housing that have no 2005 01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:23,280 Speaker 1: air conditioning because frankly, we didn't need it until the 2006 01:43:23,400 --> 01:43:27,400 Speaker 1: last few years as global warming has impacted our city. 2007 01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,080 Speaker 1: So we would we would like to promote taking advantage 2008 01:43:31,120 --> 01:43:34,360 Speaker 1: of those resources. Now, Adam Carolla, then, who's the voice 2009 01:43:34,400 --> 01:43:36,920 Speaker 1: of reason, the common sense voice out there? He says, 2010 01:43:38,240 --> 01:43:40,280 Speaker 1: And I can voucher this. Having been to La. You've 2011 01:43:40,320 --> 01:43:43,120 Speaker 1: probably been there in summertime. I'm like, yeah, you need, 2012 01:43:43,240 --> 01:43:47,080 Speaker 1: you need air condition But you know, Corolla says, Bass 2013 01:43:47,240 --> 01:43:51,400 Speaker 1: is full of stuff. I grew up in LA and 2014 01:43:51,600 --> 01:43:55,720 Speaker 1: believe me, you need air conditioning fifty years ago. I 2015 01:43:55,880 --> 01:44:02,600 Speaker 1: know because we didn't have any someone also born and 2016 01:44:02,720 --> 01:44:05,240 Speaker 1: raised here. I can say that's a fact. We live 2017 01:44:05,320 --> 01:44:08,240 Speaker 1: in the We live in the community pools during the 2018 01:44:08,280 --> 01:44:11,639 Speaker 1: summer because none of us could afford it, but we wanted, 2019 01:44:11,920 --> 01:44:14,519 Speaker 1: we want to cook in our houses. Someone replied to 2020 01:44:14,600 --> 01:44:18,000 Speaker 1: his post on x SO people just sort of piled 2021 01:44:18,080 --> 01:44:21,759 Speaker 1: on and said, yes, yes, folks, you need air conditioning 2022 01:44:21,960 --> 01:44:24,519 Speaker 1: in LA. And I was there for the last time 2023 01:44:24,560 --> 01:44:26,360 Speaker 1: I was in LA was for the Reds when the 2024 01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:29,679 Speaker 1: Reds played in the playoff series airon what early October? Yeah, 2025 01:44:29,760 --> 01:44:33,880 Speaker 1: and we needed air conditioning in the hotel that I 2026 01:44:33,920 --> 01:44:36,920 Speaker 1: stayed in, so yes, it was it's pretty hot. Yeah, 2027 01:44:37,400 --> 01:44:40,040 Speaker 1: how can you say you don't need air conditioning in 2028 01:44:40,200 --> 01:44:44,240 Speaker 1: Los Angeles? Come on, she's hot there year rounds. 2029 01:44:44,400 --> 01:44:49,000 Speaker 2: And no one, not one of her supporters believe her 2030 01:44:49,360 --> 01:44:52,360 Speaker 2: or thinks she's talking sensical when she says that. 2031 01:44:52,560 --> 01:44:54,559 Speaker 1: But you know they won't. No one will say anything. 2032 01:44:54,560 --> 01:44:57,320 Speaker 1: The media certainly won't report it. Someone said this someone 2033 01:44:57,560 --> 01:45:00,599 Speaker 1: I can't remember who told me this, but I don't 2034 01:45:00,600 --> 01:45:02,880 Speaker 1: know if it was covering politics or whatever. But it's 2035 01:45:03,000 --> 01:45:08,200 Speaker 1: like we have reached the time where she doesn't believe that. 2036 01:45:08,360 --> 01:45:10,800 Speaker 1: I mean, I guarantee you she has air conditioning in 2037 01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:16,120 Speaker 1: her house and in her office. But it's agenda Trump's 2038 01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 1: the truth Trump with those very well said agenda Trump's 2039 01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:25,800 Speaker 1: truth for the political extremists. And this is one of 2040 01:45:25,840 --> 01:45:30,080 Speaker 1: those cases is that the agenda is this topic, and 2041 01:45:30,439 --> 01:45:32,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what truth is. You're going to push 2042 01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:35,599 Speaker 1: and you're going to say things that aren't aren't truth 2043 01:45:36,080 --> 01:45:37,519 Speaker 1: because the agenda is above. 2044 01:45:37,560 --> 01:45:43,000 Speaker 2: When the person goes global warming, be damn, it's hot. 2045 01:45:43,240 --> 01:45:46,280 Speaker 2: You need some air conditioning right to function and work 2046 01:45:46,400 --> 01:45:51,040 Speaker 2: properly and be comfortable. The invention exists, it's not you know, 2047 01:45:51,240 --> 01:45:52,680 Speaker 2: exorbitantly expensive. 2048 01:45:52,720 --> 01:45:53,680 Speaker 1: We can do this. 2049 01:45:54,000 --> 01:45:56,680 Speaker 2: That's what the normal person says. But but a lot 2050 01:45:56,720 --> 01:46:00,200 Speaker 2: of people are, you know, they're they're guilty of that 2051 01:46:00,320 --> 01:46:02,160 Speaker 2: same thing, of pushing that agenda. 2052 01:46:02,960 --> 01:46:05,240 Speaker 1: Yes, and it's uh, I just looked at it's, uh, 2053 01:46:06,400 --> 01:46:11,639 Speaker 1: what ninety seven degrees there today? Jeez today, I believe 2054 01:46:11,720 --> 01:46:15,400 Speaker 1: that's what this says. What you know, but I'm looking 2055 01:46:15,400 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 1: at the average temperature of LA and yes, you need 2056 01:46:18,560 --> 01:46:21,280 Speaker 1: air conditioning pretty much year round. 2057 01:46:21,760 --> 01:46:24,719 Speaker 2: It's funny because this discussion came up around my house 2058 01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:26,720 Speaker 2: because like, what was a couple of weeks ago when 2059 01:46:26,760 --> 01:46:30,840 Speaker 2: it was like fifteen degrees or whatever it was, that's 2060 01:46:30,920 --> 01:46:33,479 Speaker 2: super cold. I mean, my wife were sitting around, We're like, 2061 01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, why did our ancestors, our great great great 2062 01:46:37,240 --> 01:46:40,680 Speaker 2: grandparents decide to just sit up steak here? 2063 01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:43,719 Speaker 1: Like like, why wouldn't they go? How did they honestly, 2064 01:46:43,760 --> 01:46:44,639 Speaker 1: how did they search? Well? 2065 01:46:44,720 --> 01:46:47,200 Speaker 2: And here's and I don't know if I'm this is right, 2066 01:46:47,320 --> 01:46:51,439 Speaker 2: but but my thought was this, I mean, now there's 2067 01:46:51,479 --> 01:46:53,720 Speaker 2: air conditioning, but say one hundred years ago, there was 2068 01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:58,439 Speaker 2: no central air, right, right, and in a primitive fashion 2069 01:46:58,560 --> 01:47:01,920 Speaker 2: for you know, tens of thousands of years. There's something 2070 01:47:02,080 --> 01:47:04,519 Speaker 2: simple you can do to get warm, which is start 2071 01:47:04,600 --> 01:47:06,960 Speaker 2: a fire, but there's nothing really simple you can do 2072 01:47:07,120 --> 01:47:10,160 Speaker 2: to get cool. So I think people said, yeah, it's 2073 01:47:10,200 --> 01:47:12,640 Speaker 2: kind of the winter kind of sucks, but being in 2074 01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:18,080 Speaker 2: Florida or Texas or New Mexico with no air conditioning anywhere, 2075 01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:21,080 Speaker 2: that that's more miserable. It sucks here, but I can 2076 01:47:21,120 --> 01:47:23,040 Speaker 2: build a fire, and you know, we kind of cut 2077 01:47:23,200 --> 01:47:25,719 Speaker 2: up a little bit. But I guess that's the reason. 2078 01:47:25,760 --> 01:47:27,439 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know, but I want to talk 2079 01:47:27,479 --> 01:47:30,200 Speaker 1: to like my great great grandparents and be like, can 2080 01:47:30,280 --> 01:47:33,680 Speaker 1: you just move down like South Carolina even a little bit, 2081 01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:37,960 Speaker 1: or Nashville or something. Yeah, he go, yeah, I kept 2082 01:47:38,000 --> 01:47:40,479 Speaker 1: pushing on. I guess I don't, dude. I think I've 2083 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:44,280 Speaker 1: told you before. But like an Amish Amish family bought 2084 01:47:45,040 --> 01:47:47,120 Speaker 1: the house I grew up here. Yeah, yeah, he told me. Yeah, 2085 01:47:47,600 --> 01:47:50,360 Speaker 1: And then it's it's the real deal, Amish man. They 2086 01:47:50,439 --> 01:47:54,759 Speaker 1: don't have electricity in that house, like there's nothing, no nothing. 2087 01:47:55,479 --> 01:47:57,960 Speaker 1: So so you guys had electricity and they just refuse 2088 01:47:58,040 --> 01:48:01,920 Speaker 1: to use it. Yeah they turned it off. Wow, So 2089 01:48:02,760 --> 01:48:05,280 Speaker 1: how do you I mean? This is in southeast Ohio 2090 01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:08,400 Speaker 1: the same temperatures here. How do you survive the summer? 2091 01:48:08,439 --> 01:48:10,560 Speaker 1: You've heard about like this the data on like the 2092 01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:14,679 Speaker 1: autism rates for the Alish community, it's like non existent. Yeah, 2093 01:48:15,479 --> 01:48:17,519 Speaker 1: because of like you know, they like they refuse a 2094 01:48:17,520 --> 01:48:19,519 Speaker 1: lot of the vaccines and stuff. What they do though, 2095 01:48:19,680 --> 01:48:21,320 Speaker 1: like if you you know, you have you know, to 2096 01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:24,120 Speaker 1: keep your milk and your cheese and stuff, the stuff 2097 01:48:24,120 --> 01:48:27,600 Speaker 1: you keep in our refrigerator. They go every day or 2098 01:48:27,760 --> 01:48:31,080 Speaker 1: every other day. They have deep on my old front porch. 2099 01:48:31,120 --> 01:48:34,400 Speaker 1: There's an old deep freezer not plugged in. But they 2100 01:48:34,520 --> 01:48:37,559 Speaker 1: go and they buy ice blocks at the grocer, at 2101 01:48:37,600 --> 01:48:41,080 Speaker 1: the convenience store, and then they put them they just 2102 01:48:41,160 --> 01:48:42,880 Speaker 1: put them in there and it keeps your stuff cool 2103 01:48:42,880 --> 01:48:43,200 Speaker 1: for time. 2104 01:48:43,400 --> 01:48:46,240 Speaker 2: I understand a primitive lifestyle. I often want to go 2105 01:48:46,360 --> 01:48:49,080 Speaker 2: back to a more primitive lifestyle. My wife does not 2106 01:48:49,160 --> 01:48:49,680 Speaker 2: agree with that. 2107 01:48:49,880 --> 01:48:52,360 Speaker 1: So we think what we're doing to have some electricity, 2108 01:48:52,360 --> 01:48:55,240 Speaker 1: but some electricity that that that's. 2109 01:48:55,120 --> 01:49:00,280 Speaker 2: Like a great cheap can not you know, not super 2110 01:49:00,520 --> 01:49:02,920 Speaker 2: but cheap convenience. Right, Like we have an electricity to 2111 01:49:03,000 --> 01:49:04,400 Speaker 2: keep your food cold. 2112 01:49:05,000 --> 01:49:08,320 Speaker 1: Primitive lifestyle. I'll you know, I'd be good without the 2113 01:49:08,439 --> 01:49:09,280 Speaker 1: phone a lot. 2114 01:49:09,439 --> 01:49:12,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, like I think we're going. I think like, 2115 01:49:12,560 --> 01:49:14,760 Speaker 2: you know, like you're a graduate high school, like ninety eight, 2116 01:49:14,880 --> 01:49:17,240 Speaker 2: ninety nine, two thousand.
