WEBVTT - USS Abraham Lincoln controversy 0:00:11.960 --> 0:00:21.840 Jesse Kelly's show. Let's have some fun on a Friday, 0:00:22.520 --> 0:00:27.880 an amazing, glorious Friday. We have made it. You survived, 0:00:27.920 --> 0:00:31.600 and I survived another week with our heads above water, 0:00:32.240 --> 0:00:35.400 and we have such a great show for you tonight. 0:00:36.120 --> 0:00:38.880 All Right, I'm gonna do it. I didn't do it yesterday, 0:00:39.560 --> 0:00:42.080 but you had a bunch of emails and apparently the 0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.959 news is not gonna let it go. I'm gonna address 0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:50.479 this story about the people in the navy. Are sailors 0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:53.720 missing some meals or that the food isn't good and 0:00:53.800 --> 0:00:56.360 to the point, I'm all right, I'm gonna talk about it. Okay, 0:00:56.400 --> 0:00:59.160 We're gonna get this out of the way. Be prepared 0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:01.760 to probably be offended, like I always end up doing, 0:01:01.800 --> 0:01:04.360 whether or not I intend to or not. That's coming. 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:07.760 Data centers. It's a big thing in the news now. 0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:11.360 I hate data centers. I love data centers. Why do 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.240 we even need data centers? What is the reality of it? 0:01:14.280 --> 0:01:18.120 We'll talk about that. Somebody who just wants to bomb 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:21.120 carg Island, take care of this Iranian thing. Someone wants 0:01:21.200 --> 0:01:24.080 to talk about pop tarts. Someone wants to know why 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.000 don't we just number the storms instead of naming them 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:32.600 because people get offended all that history stuff. The questions 0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.199 are so good, it's gonna be an awesome show tonight, 0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:40.240 if I say so myself. But let's begin here in case, 0:01:41.000 --> 0:01:44.480 just in case, you've been a little unplugged from the news, 0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:49.400 here's a little, a little synopsis, if you will, of 0:01:49.480 --> 0:01:52.440 the last twenty four to forty eight hours of fake 0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:56.320 controversy cooked up by the communists in the media and 0:01:56.360 --> 0:02:01.639 the Democrat Party. The controversy is this, there are text 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:08.080 messages now that have been leaked, text messages from sailors 0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:13.040 on naval ships over there in Iran, close to Iran, 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:19.240 over there in Iran, and they're complaining, complaining about what 0:02:20.160 --> 0:02:25.639 hey on bored This is boring, this is miserable. The 0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:29.120 food sucks, We've run out of milk, We've did this. 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:33.560 And then reports of and I don't know all the 0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:36.000 numbers on this yet, so I'm not going to sit 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.880 here and give you a number, and certainly not going 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:42.120 to give names or anything of suicides. People. Remember, there 0:02:42.120 --> 0:02:45.919 are tons of people on these ships, people who've had 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:49.320 enough and just say screw it, and they just go 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:52.000 jump off the edge of the ship and they're gone. 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:55.680 And they can't take it anymore. Okay, this is a 0:02:55.760 --> 0:03:01.120 story that's spreading like wildfire. And here's why the communists 0:03:01.160 --> 0:03:03.640 are using it to bash on Donald Trump. That's the 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:07.120 only reason why. Okay, you're getting a lot of this. 0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:08.400 This is Senator Mark Kelra. 0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:12.720 Her grandson is aboard the Lincoln and he's. 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:16.000 That's the USS Abraham Lincoln really the main ship in 0:03:16.040 --> 0:03:17.760 this whole quote controversy. 0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:23.320 Her grandson is aboard the Lincoln and he's struggling as well. 0:03:23.400 --> 0:03:27.680 He's depressed about the situation he is in. He doesn't 0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.079 know when this deployment is going to end. I'd say 0:03:30.120 --> 0:03:33.040 the most disturbing thing she told me is she saw 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.800 a picture of him, and she said, when he got 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.040 into the Navy, it was already like a skinny kid. 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.480 He's twenty one years old. She says, it looks like 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:43.600 he's lost twenty to twenty five pounds. But the thing 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:49.120 that also bothered her the most was the dismissiveness that 0:03:49.200 --> 0:03:52.800 Pete Hegseth brought to this whole situation. She saw what 0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:56.320 he said, and she said it was rather disturbing that 0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:59.320 this is the way that he represented what was going on. 0:04:00.400 --> 0:04:03.440 Okay, I got a bunch of these emails. I'll read 0:04:03.440 --> 0:04:10.760 this one. The subject is warships not porting oracle. I 0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:14.280 was not in the navy, but my wife was. He said, 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:18.400 she's a woman, so she overdramatizes everything, and by no 0:04:18.520 --> 0:04:20.760 means do I want to give her credit for anything. 0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:23.720 But she may have a point. When she mentioned that 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:28.560 many of our warships, like the USS Abraham Lincoln, currently 0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.719 at sea over two hundred days in the Middle East 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:36.600 is really bad and ships should be porting every thirty 0:04:36.640 --> 0:04:40.320 to sixty days. She claims that being at sea this 0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:45.080 long is bad emotionally and mentally for the troops, but 0:04:45.200 --> 0:04:50.520 also for the ship to not get fully maintained. Your thoughts, Okay, 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.159 I have a lot of thoughts, and they're all over 0:04:53.200 --> 0:05:00.039 the place. So here it is first, I when I 0:05:00.040 --> 0:05:04.320 I my longest. My longest stretch in the wilderness was 0:05:04.360 --> 0:05:07.800 in Iraq. It was nine ten months. I think it 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.920 ended up being like nine and a half months. We 0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:16.400 launched into Iraq during the invasion. We cruised the whole country, 0:05:16.440 --> 0:05:19.440 fighting our way up to bag Dad. Then we bounced 0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:24.680 around to various places doing other things. In Iraq that 0:05:25.040 --> 0:05:30.440 nine month stretch, there weren't really facilities. Then this is 0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:33.200 before you know, we came in and started setting up 0:05:33.240 --> 0:05:36.479 bases and internet access. And I've told you this story before. 0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:39.120 I think it was three weeks two or three weeks 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.960 before my parents heard my voice. They didn't know if 0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:44.480 I was alive because there's no phones, there's no there's 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.279 no nothing. And the only reason they found out I 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:52.000 was alive is somebody gave our unit a satellite phone 0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:56.240 and every guy got to make one five minute phone 0:05:56.279 --> 0:05:59.120 call and if they answered, great, If not, you left 0:05:59.200 --> 0:06:01.600 them a voicemail. My parents happen to answer, right, So 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:04.440 this is believe me. I'm not crying. I'm just letting 0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:08.719 you know that's what it was. And it was nine 0:06:08.760 --> 0:06:14.239 months of either MREs packaged food. I think a couple 0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:18.640 times we got trays of processed food. They would drop off, 0:06:18.640 --> 0:06:21.160 you know, a big vat of powdered eggs. But whatever, 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.440 it was something you were banking on family members to 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:27.159 send you hot sauce and doritos and things like that. 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:33.080 But there was rough. The facilities for a while were 0:06:33.080 --> 0:06:35.760 non existent. You were sleeping in the hole. You dug 0:06:35.800 --> 0:06:39.839 into the ground every night. If you had to answers 0:06:39.880 --> 0:06:42.960 and answer nature's call. Here's a true story, probably way 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:45.159 more information than you want, but you're here with me, 0:06:45.279 --> 0:06:49.839 so we're gonna tell stories. I are Ammo cans. I 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:51.440 don't know if it's still this way, but our Ammo 0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:55.360 cans they come in cased in a wooden shell. It's 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:57.720 like a wooden shell, and you have to obviously remove 0:06:57.720 --> 0:06:59.480 the wooden shell before you can open the mo can 0:06:59.520 --> 0:07:02.800 get to the end, but the wooden shell stays intact 0:07:02.880 --> 0:07:05.400 as this box. And of course there's now a hole 0:07:05.440 --> 0:07:08.040 in the middle of it because there's no more Ammo 0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:12.600 can in it with me. So we decided, okay, look, 0:07:12.640 --> 0:07:15.240 you get you have to use some ingenuity when you're 0:07:15.240 --> 0:07:19.280 stuck out there. We found some padding I think we'd 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:21.840 forget what we cut up for padding, and we put 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.240 it around the edges of the wood that was our toilet. 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:33.080 And there's no privacy in fact, because you're in combat. 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:36.600 You don't want privacy. Uncomfortable as it may be. You 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.560 have to have guys who are there who can kill 0:07:38.600 --> 0:07:41.160 anybody who's trying trying to get at you when you're 0:07:41.200 --> 0:07:44.040 trying to drop the kids off of the pool and 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.920 broad daylight, I had to take this thing in a 0:07:48.080 --> 0:07:51.400 swampy area and sit down in it in broad daylight. 0:07:52.040 --> 0:07:54.800 I have never had that many mosquito bites on my 0:07:54.960 --> 0:07:59.760 nether regions in my life, broad daylight. This is not 0:07:59.840 --> 0:08:04.680 me you crying about combat conditions. It's not This is 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:07.800 me saying this flat out them. We're gonna address the 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:12.440 other parts of this flat out. There's a reason combat 0:08:12.560 --> 0:08:18.840 is made for young men. Young Men are physically stronger 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:21.760 than any other demographic in society. Is certainly a lot 0:08:21.760 --> 0:08:25.840 stronger than old men like me, stronger than women. Young 0:08:25.920 --> 0:08:30.840 Men have this deep sense of adventure Oftentimes. Oftentimes a 0:08:30.960 --> 0:08:35.000 young man will do something because he knows it's going 0:08:35.040 --> 0:08:37.240 to suck and he wants to test himself. I'm telling 0:08:37.280 --> 0:08:38.960 you right now, that's big part of why I joined 0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:41.160 the Marines. What am I made of? Am I tough enough? 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:43.640 Can I do this? It's weird. It's how our minds work. 0:08:44.480 --> 0:08:47.520 This is why militaries have been occupied by young men 0:08:47.760 --> 0:08:51.400 from the beginning of time. And when you leave the 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:57.280 comforts of home, heating, air conditioning, good food, red lobster, 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:02.160 and you go over to any kind of combat deployment, 0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:04.560 whether you're a marine digging a hole in the ground, 0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:08.400 or you're a sailor on a ship out in the 0:09:08.400 --> 0:09:13.760 middle of the water, not much to do. It sucks. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:20.240 It sucks. It sucks every day. We used to take 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:22.840 as many naps as we could, and we all just 0:09:22.920 --> 0:09:25.679 collectively decided, every minute your napping is a minute you're 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.199 not here. It's the minute closer you are to get home. 0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:34.319 Go take a nap. It sucks, It has always sucked, 0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:42.800 and it will always suck. Genghis Khans Mongols. When they 0:09:42.800 --> 0:09:47.600 were taking down various empires, they sat around at night 0:09:47.640 --> 0:09:50.880 and wondered, Oh, man, I wonder what my wife's doing 0:09:50.920 --> 0:09:54.440 back home. I'll tell you what I could go for 0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:57.280 some of that soup she makes. Oh my gosh, I'm 0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:01.440 so tired of eating this dried out. World War Two 0:10:01.960 --> 0:10:06.840 our greatest generation. Do you think those guys sitting in 0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:10.560 a freezing cold fighting hole in Europe were cheering about 0:10:10.600 --> 0:10:15.760 it every night? Nope, sucked. They were complaining all day 0:10:16.000 --> 0:10:18.840 every day. This sucked. I'm freezing. This is miserable. I 0:10:18.920 --> 0:10:23.560 want to go home. Mom's apple pie. You know what 0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:28.360 a long, miserable deployment is the whole history of the world, 0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.360 that's what it is. Now. I'll get to a couple 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:36.240 other specifics in a moment. Hang on feeling a little stocky, 0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:40.559 Follow like and subscribe on social at Jesse Kelly DC. 0:10:42.280 --> 0:10:47.359 From ther Life Back Studios, The Jesse Kelly Show. 0:10:54.120 --> 0:10:59.559 Show. It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Friday. 0:10:59.679 --> 0:11:03.640 As we turn through these amazing ask doctor Jesse questions 0:11:04.080 --> 0:11:08.040 just now joining us, I'm addressing these stories about the sailors. 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:12.760 They're sad, they're depressed, they're committing suicide. Grandma's are complaining, 0:11:12.800 --> 0:11:15.520 my son has lost Wade, and I just recapped it. 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:20.240 Here's the one sentence answer. Long deployment suck. They've always sucked, 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.800 they will always suck. They are long, miserable things. You 0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:27.439 can go on a long deployment that actually is one 0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:30.320 of the nicer ones and sounds nice, and it sucks. 0:11:30.600 --> 0:11:33.280 Before we ever went to Iraq, we did a six 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:36.040 month deployment in Okanawa. It's a very standard thing in 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.320 the Marine Corps. A bunch of big marine presents over 0:11:38.360 --> 0:11:42.880 there and the modern military base air conditioning. We had 0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.680 a chow haul right there were a couple of little restaurants. 0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.200 I forget what it was, tag gun and I know 0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:51.000 Domino's was one. There was I think one other little 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.040 restaurant on the thing. And at one point in time, 0:11:54.080 --> 0:11:57.079 we got to go up to Japan proper. We got 0:11:57.120 --> 0:11:59.160 to go to Mount Fuji where we did training. We 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.000 went to Thailand the jungle word, so which this is 0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:05.400 not hot, not combat, and for the most part, your 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:07.720 life was never in danger. By the end of it, 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:11.360 we all just wanted to go home, not America. Now 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.720 that's a cushy one. Now, when you talk about a 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:21.440 combat deployment, it's gonna suck. And not only is it 0:12:21.520 --> 0:12:26.720 going to suck, here's something a little different about today. 0:12:27.720 --> 0:12:34.080 Phones and emails. Apparently we let all these guys keep 0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:39.080 their phones. They have a computer access where they can 0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:43.400 email people. And when you do that, troops are going 0:12:43.440 --> 0:12:47.760 to do what troops have always done. They are going 0:12:47.840 --> 0:12:53.120 to jot down complaints for mom, dad, sister, wife and 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:57.439 anyone else who will listen, and they'll send those complaints 0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.120 back home. When I was in the Marine, we didn't 0:13:01.160 --> 0:13:03.480 have that when I was in Iraq, so it was 0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:06.040 the form of letters, which I was really terrible about. 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:08.280 I feel bad about that. But when I wrote a letter, 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:12.319 it was a lot of Hey, I'm fine, it's okay, 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:15.640 and it was a lot of complaining. The food sucks. 0:13:15.800 --> 0:13:19.120 It's freaking hot. You should see the flies. You know what. 0:13:19.360 --> 0:13:23.760 Napoleon's troops, right this wrote the same thing. Every deployed 0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:29.160 troop in history, because it sucks, has penned a letter 0:13:29.240 --> 0:13:34.000 to mom back home and told her this sucks. And 0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:39.400 if there are enough quote this sucks letters that flow 0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:43.400 back home, eventually you're gonna get some over the top 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:47.640 mom whose husband can't control her, and she's gonna go 0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:51.439 marching down to the local newspaper and say, look at 0:13:51.440 --> 0:13:55.400 this text message Aiden, Jaden and Braden sent me from 0:13:55.400 --> 0:13:58.600 the USS Lincoln. They don't even have milk for their 0:13:58.640 --> 0:14:04.679 cinnamon toast crunch. This is an outrage. There's nothing new 0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:11.280 under the sun. Combat deployments suck. Two hundred days on 0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:18.319 a ship sucks, as to as the depression, the alleged suicides. 0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:22.120 I know we're still hashing all that out. You take 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:24.440 a thousand young men and women, now, since we have 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:27.040 to put women on these naval ships, you take a 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:31.520 thousand young men and women. Okay, they're navy sailors, right, 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:35.240 They're not Navy seals, certainly not putting down the Navy. 0:14:35.280 --> 0:14:38.360 You know my respect for the big blue water Navy, 0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:41.680 but they're not Navy seals. They go through some training, 0:14:41.720 --> 0:14:44.160 they go through boot camp, and of course they're trained 0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:48.680 and they work hard. But you think there's not going 0:14:48.760 --> 0:14:54.080 to be a couple week tirds who get through. You 0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:57.000 think there's not gonna be a few turds. I'm telling 0:14:57.040 --> 0:15:00.040 you right now. I was in the Marine Corps in 0:15:00.160 --> 0:15:04.040 and try as far as non special operations guys goes, 0:15:04.120 --> 0:15:07.360 that's as hard as it gets in the United States military. 0:15:07.760 --> 0:15:10.480 Easily as hard as it gets. We had a few 0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:14.280 turds squeak through who could n't hack it. There weren't 0:15:14.320 --> 0:15:18.280 a lot, but there were a few. There's an aircraft 0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:21.840 carrier with a thousand sailors on it. You think you 0:15:21.960 --> 0:15:25.920 didn't let on twenty to fifty who are weak little 0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:29.120 sisters who are gonna snap when it gets too hard 0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:34.359 into the ice cream machine breaks. Sorry if that sounds cold, 0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:40.520 that's the freaking military. That's life. Suck it up. It sucks, 0:15:40.920 --> 0:15:43.320 I know it. And by the way, I'm not telling 0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:46.600 anybody to not complain when you write letters back home, 0:15:46.680 --> 0:15:48.800 Like I said, I did it. That's part of how 0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.760 it is. I heard an old salty marine Korean War 0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:54.320 veterans say one time. I think this is in the documentary. 0:15:54.560 --> 0:15:56.920 They said, look at some marines. If you're not complaining, 0:15:56.960 --> 0:15:59.400 you're not a marine. Complain all you want, that's what 0:15:59.560 --> 0:16:03.160 it is. But you suck it up in march on. 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:08.920 This is all just a partisan cudgel that's being used 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:13.960 because they think it'll land poorly on Donald Trump. That's 0:16:14.040 --> 0:16:18.720 why all these Democrat politicians jumped on it all at once. 0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:22.960 Oh we had to eat frozen foods. I didn't have 0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:26.160 anything but MREs for nine months. Yeah, let me just 0:16:26.240 --> 0:16:27.840 go ahead and get this out of the way. And 0:16:27.880 --> 0:16:31.360 if my sound a little inner service bitter, it's because 0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:34.320 I am. Don't you dare eat three hot meals a 0:16:34.400 --> 0:16:37.480 day and then wine because the cinnamon toast crunch doesn't 0:16:37.480 --> 0:16:43.080 have any milk anymore. Crime a freaking river. Oh well, now, 0:16:43.120 --> 0:16:47.480 as far as the ship needing refitted, that part is 0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:53.400 probably legit. However, sometimes I mean aircraft carriers are not common. 0:16:53.720 --> 0:16:55.280 There aren't a ton of them. We have more than 0:16:55.280 --> 0:16:58.080 anyone in the world, and we don't have endless aircraft carriers. 0:16:58.440 --> 0:17:01.800 If an aircraft carrier is critical to the job, and 0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:05.520 it obviously is critical to the job in Afghanistan, that 0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:08.080 aircraft carrier might have to stay out there a little longer. 0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:11.840 It sucks, and I know it sucks. Sleeping is miserable. 0:17:13.080 --> 0:17:17.160 That's life, all right. If you came here looking for sympathy, 0:17:17.200 --> 0:17:19.840 you came to the wrong place. If you came here 0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:21.720 looking for a better employee, I can help you there. 0:17:23.720 --> 0:17:25.800 Actually I can't help you. That was a lie. ZipRecruiter 0:17:25.840 --> 0:17:30.760 can help you, though. ZipRecruiter they already have your guy. 0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:34.480 You know, that that one you're looking for, that one 0:17:34.560 --> 0:17:37.440 you need at that position, you need him or her 0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:41.680 in he or she They're already on ZipRecruiter.

It's not an accident that four out of 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:07.439 five employers who post on zip recruiter get a quality 0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:11.200 candidate in the first day. You are not months away. 0:18:11.680 --> 0:18:16.920 You are ZipRecruiter dot com slash Jesse away, go try 0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:22.360 it for free? All right? This data center hubbub hang. 0:18:22.160 --> 0:18:42.240 On, don't miss Clay Travis and Buck Sexton weekdays noon 0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:45.359 to three on seven ten wor. 0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:53.800 It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wonderful Friday, 0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:57.600 and asked Doctor Jesse Friday, sure to be offensive as 0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:00.600 always for three hours. I mean, look, we got done 0:19:00.640 --> 0:19:02.919 with the deployed troops and I can already see the 0:19:03.000 --> 0:19:05.159 emails in it kind of come poor and and I 0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:08.639 ain't saying, yep, whatever you're offended about, that's exactly what 0:19:08.720 --> 0:19:11.240 I said. V'll double down on it now and I'm 0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:14.560 not sorry. All right, you can email those complaints in 0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:18.639 your questions to Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:22.000 let's do this offensive thing again with this one, Jesse, 0:19:22.080 --> 0:19:25.880 why do we need data centers? Could you explain why 0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:28.720 all of a sudden we need those places? What kind 0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:31.680 of data are we talking about? They wanted to build 0:19:31.720 --> 0:19:34.639 one in my area and the residents now rose up 0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:39.040 and protested. Now it's not going to happen. And he says, yay, okay, 0:19:39.119 --> 0:19:44.040 so why all right? So let's let's do it this way, 0:19:45.840 --> 0:19:49.040 And I'm gonna try to explain this as if you're 0:19:49.080 --> 0:19:53.679 somebody who is stupid at technology like I am. I 0:19:53.720 --> 0:19:56.600 don't know technology, Okay. I have to rely on Jewish 0:19:56.680 --> 0:19:59.800 producer Chris and degenerate producer Corey when I'm at work. 0:20:00.119 --> 0:20:02.359 When I'm at home, I have to rely on my kids. 0:20:03.440 --> 0:20:06.280 So this is me explaining it to you like you're 0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:11.680 me all right. The cloud. You've heard of the cloud, right, 0:20:11.960 --> 0:20:14.600 the cloud if you have maybe an iPhone or something 0:20:14.640 --> 0:20:16.840 like that. But there are a million examples of the cloud. 0:20:17.680 --> 0:20:21.000 What is it? Well, it used to be, and I 0:20:21.040 --> 0:20:24.360 know this still exists that if I'm on a computer 0:20:25.200 --> 0:20:27.720 or a phone. I'm on my phone, that'll be easier 0:20:27.720 --> 0:20:31.760 to explain. And I want to save a picture. I 0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:34.720 take a picture of myself, as I often do. I 0:20:34.800 --> 0:20:37.159 take a picture of myself and I want to save 0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:42.560 that picture. Well, I have to save it onto something. 0:20:43.240 --> 0:20:45.600 There has to be a disc or a chip or 0:20:45.600 --> 0:20:49.040 a stick or something some kind of device where the 0:20:49.080 --> 0:20:54.520 picture actually goes with me. Well, then the cloud came along. 0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:58.760 What is the cloud? Though the picture is saved. But 0:20:59.720 --> 0:21:02.760 if I take my phone right now and I drive 0:21:02.840 --> 0:21:04.960 down to the pool and chuck it in the deep end. 0:21:05.400 --> 0:21:08.680 My phone fries out. How is it that I can 0:21:08.720 --> 0:21:13.040 go buy a new phone, sign in and all my 0:21:13.160 --> 0:21:18.080 selfies are still in there? How because the pictures are 0:21:18.119 --> 0:21:21.560 not saved on the phone anymore, or maybe they're on 0:21:21.600 --> 0:21:26.800 the phone as well as the cloud. They're saved on 0:21:26.880 --> 0:21:30.040 the cloud. So when I sign into a new phone 0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:34.880 a new computer, then I just sign into the cloud 0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:39.680 and the cloud puts those pictures on my phone. Wow, 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:43.680 that's wonderful. But I have breaking news for you here. 0:21:45.600 --> 0:21:52.200 It's journalist Jesse. It's not actually in the clouds. The 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:57.440 picture that is being saved in the cloud. It has 0:21:57.520 --> 0:22:04.520 to be saved somewhere physically, Somewhere physical has to retain 0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:09.520 that electronic selfie I took of me smiling and flexing 0:22:09.560 --> 0:22:13.040 in front of the bathroom mirror. Somebody has to take 0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:18.359 that picture, all right. Now, That brings me to the 0:22:18.440 --> 0:22:24.879 data center thing. For the longest time, huge tech companies 0:22:25.640 --> 0:22:29.960 have needed data centers. Data centers are not new. They're 0:22:30.000 --> 0:22:33.800 not new because for the longest time, since especially since 0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:36.520 the cloud started coming, you had to have a place 0:22:36.560 --> 0:22:42.000 that could electronically store that data. All right, you with me, Now, 0:22:43.440 --> 0:22:49.480 let's do it like this. When cars were first introduced 0:22:49.640 --> 0:22:51.800 to the United States of America, we'll just make this 0:22:51.840 --> 0:22:57.080 one about America. When cars were first introduced, very first introduced. 0:22:58.000 --> 0:23:01.240 How much gasoline did you need? I'm talking about the 0:23:01.240 --> 0:23:04.640 country itself. How much gasoline did you really need? Well, 0:23:04.800 --> 0:23:08.320 not much. If you know one hundred people, maybe one 0:23:08.359 --> 0:23:12.679 guy owns a car. So there wasn't a gas station 0:23:13.040 --> 0:23:16.159 on every street corner. Gas stations were very few and 0:23:16.240 --> 0:23:18.520 far between if you had one at all in your area, 0:23:18.600 --> 0:23:24.080 because there wasn't a big need that. That was the 0:23:24.119 --> 0:23:30.560 beginning of the cloud era. Right now, a I has 0:23:30.760 --> 0:23:35.120 changed all that. AI. You know what it is. It's 0:23:35.160 --> 0:23:39.560 America going from a couple people own cars to America 0:23:39.640 --> 0:23:43.879 today where everyone has a freaking car. Most families have 0:23:44.280 --> 0:23:50.760 multiple cars, even Jewish producer Chris most families have multiple cars. Therefore, 0:23:51.160 --> 0:23:55.040 now we went from needing a little gas to we 0:23:55.240 --> 0:24:02.879 need gas everywhere, absolutely everywhere. We now need a place 0:24:02.960 --> 0:24:07.199 to store that data, and we need a lot more 0:24:07.359 --> 0:24:11.800 of them than we ever had before. So to the 0:24:11.920 --> 0:24:15.680 data centers. That was not a pitch for or against 0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:18.439 data centers. And I'll explain my thoughts on data centers 0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:21.119 in a moment. That was just a basic explanation of 0:24:21.160 --> 0:24:25.280 why they are needed as so much of our society 0:24:25.480 --> 0:24:29.919 shifts sadly to AI. You need more and more and 0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:35.000 more places to store all of that information. Okay, now 0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:38.600 for you, for your community. What does it mean? Well, 0:24:40.320 --> 0:24:43.480 when people move to a specific area or just live 0:24:43.720 --> 0:24:48.200 in a specific area, they wanted to stay nice and 0:24:48.640 --> 0:24:52.720 they don't want radical changes. They don't. I'll tell you 0:24:52.800 --> 0:24:56.760 right now. I live in a small town. We moved 0:24:56.760 --> 0:25:00.320 there in part because it's a small town, just not 0:25:00.359 --> 0:25:02.360 big city people. I like visiting, but then I want 0:25:02.359 --> 0:25:05.040 to leave. I live in a small town, and I 0:25:05.200 --> 0:25:07.879 like that. It felt a little rural. I mean, is 0:25:07.920 --> 0:25:09.880 there a chick fil A? Sure, there's a Chick fil 0:25:09.920 --> 0:25:12.359 A in five minutes. There's a big field with cattle 0:25:12.400 --> 0:25:16.639 in it. I like that too. Now do I like 0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:19.240 it when a new restaurant comes in? Oh? Sure, new 0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:23.840 place to eat? Okay, what about a new apartment complex? No, 0:25:23.960 --> 0:25:28.440 I complain like a crusty old man. Look, I can't 0:25:28.440 --> 0:25:30.440 count how many times I've told my wife this. She's 0:25:30.480 --> 0:25:32.840 making fun of me. Now they're building up every square 0:25:32.880 --> 0:25:34.800 inch of this town. I say it all the time, too. 0:25:34.800 --> 0:25:34.879 Her. 0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:38.639 I wanted my town to stay the way it was. 0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:41.520 I didn't grow up in it, but if I had, 0:25:41.560 --> 0:25:43.199 I would want it to stay the way it was 0:25:43.800 --> 0:25:46.479 if I moved here, and I did move here, I 0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:49.600 wanted it to stay the place just like it always 0:25:49.800 --> 0:25:56.320 was the way I moved here. But that never happens. Ever. 0:25:57.520 --> 0:26:04.240 Towns change. When I grew up Bozeman, Montana, it was 0:26:04.560 --> 0:26:08.160 a ski town and not a poor town, not at all. 0:26:08.240 --> 0:26:11.960 But it was thirty thousand people and a family of 0:26:12.080 --> 0:26:14.719 four with a decent job. My dad didn't even have 0:26:15.119 --> 0:26:17.800 a great job. When we moved to Montana, could get 0:26:17.800 --> 0:26:20.240 a little house. Well that's not gonna be some manchup, 0:26:20.280 --> 0:26:22.679 but you could definitely get a little house. Someone told me, 0:26:22.720 --> 0:26:25.280 I haven't verified this, but I bet you it's pretty close. 0:26:25.320 --> 0:26:29.200
