You were just going 44 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 3: to the slanty house. 45 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 5: We did not do any of that, and we were 46 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 5: like nine and eleven and we were left there. 47 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:19,120 Speaker 6: My mom was a good parent. 48 00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 5: I mean people did that back then, and nobody acted crazy, 49 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 5: nobody was in danger, and it was normal. 50 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 6: It was It was a kinder, gentler world back then. 51 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 2: Are you sick of boys and berry pie? 52 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 5: You know, I don't like pies that are made out 53 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 5: of fruit, So you know, I'm the wrong person to 54 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 5: ask about that. But I liked their fried chicken. The 55 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 5: fried chicken was really good back then. 56 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, who doesn't like that besides the vegans. 57 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,239 Speaker 6: Yeah, well they don't like anything why they're vegans. 58 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: So we've spent a lot of time talking with you 59 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: about all of these stories. The business papers, in particular, 60 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: the business channels love to say that Las Vegas is 61 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: in decline, that no one's going there anymore, that people 62 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:05,760 Speaker 2: are not gambling like they used to, that there are 63 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 2: other gaming cities that have people's attention, there are state lotteries, 64 00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 2: there's online, there's this, there's that. And then this weekend, 65 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 2: I'm out at dinner with friends at three o'clock and 66 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:20,960 Speaker 2: I don't even know why they wanted to go to 67 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:24,359 Speaker 2: dinner at three o'clock on a Saturday. And then We're 68 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 2: sitting there having dinner and they're looking at me like, Okay, 69 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: you're eating really slow, And I thought, what are you 70 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 2: in some sort of race? Do you have a plane 71 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: to catch? And everyone goes, oh, no, we need to 72 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 2: get to the bar so we can watch the big 73 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 2: fight tonight, because all eyes are on Las Vegas, Nevada, 74 00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: the big MMA fight, the Connor McGregor fight, And so 75 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 2: we all have to split early because they're all going 76 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 2: to watch the fight. And I watched the news all weekend, 77 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 2: and oh my god, Las Vegas was the epicenter of 78 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: the globe. It's like back in the old days when 79 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,120 Speaker 2: boxing was big and they'd get the big Mike Tyson 80 00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: fight and all would be on Las Vegas. And when 81 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 2: I would look at these images of all the cars 82 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 2: on the strip and all the people in the casinos 83 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: and all the people betting on the fight. Is Las 84 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 2: Vegas coming back the way that it looked like on 85 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 2: television over the weekend. 86 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 6: No, I don't think so at all. 87 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 5: I mean, first of all, first of all, you know 88 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 5: that did remind me of the Tyson fight, because if 89 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 5: you go and get an extra beer, you've missed it 90 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,640 Speaker 5: and now you spent all your money. 91 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,039 Speaker 6: I mean I looked at the ticket prices out. Have 92 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 6: you ever been to a UFC fight? No, they may fight. 93 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 5: First of all, let me just say it. I'm not 94 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 5: putting down the sport in anyway. If that's your thing, Okay, 95 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 5: I watch some of it. You can't see anything when 96 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 5: you're there. The only way you can see it is 97 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 5: by watching it on TV because if you're there, all 98 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 5: you see is the polls and the chain link. 99 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 3: Well, and let you're right, if you look down at 100 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: your phone for a second to check your email, the 101 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 3: fight's over. 102 00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:56,520 Speaker 6: That's it. That's over it. But I will give his 103 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 6: opponent credit. 104 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 5: At least he stopped and said, point to the referee, said, hey, 105 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 5: can you see his legs screwed up here? 106 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 6: I don't want to keep pounding on this guys. It's 107 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 6: not a fair fight. 108 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:06,599 Speaker 5: I thought that was classy of it, really, because he 109 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 5: could have just pounded him and grounded him and everything else, 110 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: and he just said, wait a minute. He clearly is 111 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,679 Speaker 5: not all there. Everything's not working all of his parts. 112 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 6: So that was great. 113 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 5: But yeah, quick fight over and out. Fifteen million, I 114 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 5: guess was the base right that he got. Plus who 115 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 5: knows how much extra for the pay per view, and 116 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 5: that's not bad work for one round? 117 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 6: Is I'd go one round for that kind of money. 118 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 2: Well, for fights like that, I think it's almost like Christmas, 119 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: where for Christmas, Okay, the day where you get to 120 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 2: see your family, the day where you get to have 121 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 2: the turkey and you get to do all the things. 122 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:41,239 Speaker 2: That's great and wonderful, but what really makes Christmas Christmas 123 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 2: is the build up. It's the music, it's the lights, 124 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 2: it's the decorations, And it almost doesn't even matter if 125 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,919 Speaker 2: the fight is something that people remember forever, it's the 126 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 2: build up because people flew in from all over the 127 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,240 Speaker 2: globe to pay a lot of money to go see 128 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: this thing. All the rest restaurants were full, all the 129 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: hotels were fulled Las Vegas one regardless. 130 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,040 Speaker 5: Well, it depends on how much they gamble. Obviously you're 131 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 5: going to spend the money on the tickets. 132 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 6: At T Mobile, that's obviously part of it. But how 133 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 6: much do they gamble. 134 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 5: You know, you've been to Vegas many many times, many 135 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 5: many years ago, or was supposed to under age twenty one. 136 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 5: When I was a kid, my dad was a showroom 137 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:21,160 Speaker 5: musician and we all knew what happened. The shows had 138 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:23,840 Speaker 5: to end at a certain time because the point of 139 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,719 Speaker 5: the show was to get you to the casino and 140 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 5: get you out onto the casino floor at a certain time, Right, 141 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 5: that was the whole point. 142 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 6: If they're spending all their money on. 143 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 5: Tickets to these ridiculously overpriced events, in my opinion, I mean, 144 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 5: I realized the market will decide, but the prices are 145 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 5: crazy for locals or any normal person to go. It's 146 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 5: like a house payment for a lot of people. And 147 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 5: if they're not going straight to the casino afterwards, that's 148 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,320 Speaker 5: Those are the numbers you have to look at. 149 00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess when you get to that price point, 150 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 2: you might be attracting a different crowd. Instead of the 151 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,839 Speaker 2: crowd that wants to go and gamble, you're attracting the 152 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: crowd that has gobs of money and they just want 153 00:06:59,880 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 2: to be seen at an event that they know is elite. 154 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:03,400 Speaker 7: Right. 155 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,600 Speaker 5: What's interesting I think is there's some numbers came out 156 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,800 Speaker 5: from a plaster dot AI. The median household income was 157 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 5: ninety three for visitors, Okay, ninety three thousand dollars from 158 00:07:14,360 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 5: January to May twenty nineteen. A little bit higher in 159 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 5: twenty twenty six, but the strip's median household income declined 160 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 5: on many major event days. Now, that's interesting to me, 161 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 5: because what are you bringing in the cooler crowd. You 162 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 5: may spend all your money on tickets, but you're not 163 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 5: necessarily going to spend Now, f one's one thing. 164 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:33,920 Speaker 6: You have to fancy people and all that, but. 165 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 5: A lot of these other events don't necessarily bring in 166 00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 5: a lot of people who are going to then spend 167 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,640 Speaker 5: all the money on everything else. 168 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 6: That's the problem. We don't know well. 169 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: And you also know that for big events, let's just 170 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 2: say New Years, you know that they're going to raise 171 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: the cost of what they charge for a drink.

Now, I know this is gonna sound odd. 229 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: Lindsay Graham was seventy one years of age, and you go, okay, 230 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: for guys, if you're a big guy, that's kind of 231 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 2: when they die. Maybe on the low end, but you know, 232 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 2: for a man to die of a heart attack in 233 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: his seventies, it's not like, you know, man bites dog. 234 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:41,719 Speaker 2: But by United States Senate standards and United States Congress standards, 235 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 2: that guy is a whipper snapper. So to hear that 236 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:47,680 Speaker 2: a seventy one year old rolled a seven, I think 237 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: a lot of people could not believe what they were 238 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: reading in the newspaper. 239 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, it was sad.

A lot of good things to say 244 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 5: about Lindsey Graham. I will never forget his defense at 245 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 5: Brett Kavanaugh. That was the most amazing thing I have 246 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 5: ever seen. And that's when he really I mean, there's 247 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 5: a lot of things in his career. You can talk 248 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 5: about people didn't like him going against Trump, blah blah blah. 249 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,240 Speaker 5: But when he stood up for Brett Kavanaugh when Brett 250 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,440 Speaker 5: Cavanaugh was being destroyed, that couple of minutes in the 251 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 5: hearing that he spoke about Brett Kavanaugh was unbelieve. His 252 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 5: full throated defense of him was amazing and so gutsy 253 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:28,959 Speaker 5: at a time when it wasn't the popular take to 254 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 5: Stan to take. And I had a lot of respect 255 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 5: for him. You know, he was a great guy in 256 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 5: a lot of ways and just weird.

And more often than not we 297 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 2: get away with that. But there are times when it 298 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,320 Speaker 2: really is an emergency and you really do need to go, 299 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 2: and you go, okay, well, who am I in the 300 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 2: grand scheme of things?

I'm not a doctor, but 315 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 5: that's cardiac. When you have pain in your jaw, and 316 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 5: he collapsed on the ground for no reason. And I 317 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 5: told her, I said, you take him to the er now, 318 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 5: don't go to quick care, don't pay for an ambulance ride, 319 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 5: go straight to the hospital.

Turned out he had a valve 323 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 5: problem that would have killed him. But sometimes they don't 324 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 5: manifest the way you'd expect them to. And we don't 325 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:30,960 Speaker 5: know how Lindsay Graham felt. Maybe he thought he had 326 00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 5: some nausea, maybe his heartburn. We don't know what it 327 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 5: feels like. I have no idea what it feels like 328 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 5: when you have an aortic dissection, So who knows. And 329 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 5: you know, maybe men are just saying and he just 330 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 5: came back, by the way from a huge trip overseas 331 00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:46,160 Speaker 5: as you know, that's exhausting in itself. You may be 332 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 5: jet lagged and whatnot, and you could, you know, chalk 333 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 5: it up to those kinds of things easily. 334 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 2: So it looks like you're getting a lot of reaction. 335 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 2: In the chat where listener Nancy says it was John 336 00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 2: Ritter who died from an aortic di section. Is that 337 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 2: no who you were returned to? 338 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 6: Who's who's saying blurred lines helped me out? 339 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,120 Speaker 3: Robin thinks, so you're thinking of Alan Thick. 340 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 6: That's who I'm thinking of. Thank you. Remember that he 341 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 6: was playing hockey with his son at the time. I 342 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:12,720 Speaker 6: believe that what he died of. 343 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: I think that's definitely possible. That's what Lester Sean writes. 344 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 6: Okay, that's who I was thinking of. It was it 345 00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 6: John Ridder too? 346 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 3: Might have been been John Ridder. I mean, this thing 347 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 3: does happen. 348 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, well that yeah, that's the whole point. 349 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 5: You don't know, and we all do our best to 350 00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 5: try to, you know, take care of ourselves and be 351 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 5: on top of these things, and you just don't know. 352 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 5: I mean, at the end of the day, you know, 353 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 5: nobody has their affairs in order like they should do 354 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 5: they I don't. 355 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 2: And I'll say this also about Lindsey Graham. I know 356 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 2: that there is a lot of heat from the right 357 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 2: that was directed at him because he had a good 358 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 2: working relationship with a lot of people on the other 359 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,320 Speaker 2: side of the aisle, and then on our side, people 360 00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: like John McCain, who didn't always play nice with his 361 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 2: own team. But in a body like the Senate, if 362 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,880 Speaker 2: you are in charge of the Judiciary Committee and your 363 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 2: job is to get your people on the Supreme Court 364 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: or your people on the Bench or whatever, your job 365 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 2: is a lot easier if you can have honest conversations 366 00:16:17,800 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 2: with people whose votes can be difficult to get. And 367 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 2: for a long time it was him and Diane Feinstein 368 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 2: who ran that committee, and he really courted her, and 369 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 2: he really did a good job of charming her and 370 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 2: of making her feel comfortable to work with him. And 371 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 2: it wasn't even just Kavanaugh that he helped get through. 372 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 2: It was Amy Coney, Barrett and a bunch of other 373 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 2: people on lower courts whose names we might not even know, 374 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:51,440 Speaker 2: but wouldn't be on the bench without his ability to 375 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: call for a vote, to get the votes to push 376 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 2: it through. In fact, on the other side of the aisle, 377 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 2: Dianne Feinstein had such a good working relationship with him, 378 00:17:02,240 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 2: they dumped her as the Democratic voice on that committee. 379 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: They chalked it up to her advanced age, which I'm 380 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,359 Speaker 2: sure played a part in it, but they didn't like 381 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,920 Speaker 2: the fact that she had such a good relationship with him. 382 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 5: Right, Well, you can't get much done in the Senator, 383 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 5: any legislative body if you don't get along with people. 384 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,600 Speaker 5: I'm not saying you should give up your principles, but 385 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 5: you have to at least talk to people. And we 386 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,120 Speaker 5: know because of what we do, and then you talk 387 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,120 Speaker 5: to people on a one on one basis. We all 388 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 5: want the same things. We want to be safe in America. 389 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:34,720 Speaker 5: We want our children educated. Well, we want this, we 390 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 5: want that. But if where we diverge is how to 391 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,359 Speaker 5: achieve those goals. Some people think government's the way to 392 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,919 Speaker 5: achieve those other people think it's more about freedom and. 393 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 6: This than that. 394 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 5: But if you can't even have a conversation and start 395 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 5: with okay, we agree on let's start at the root 396 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 5: of the tree. 397 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 6: We agree on this, and let's try to get somewhere else. 398 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 5: If you're not going to talk to anybody ever, and 399 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 5: you're going to walk in every room elbows out, how 400 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 5: are you going to accomplish anything for your constituents. 401 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:58,439 Speaker 6: You can't. 402 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 2: So you're in Nevada right now, and so is the 403 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:09,440 Speaker 2: governor of California.
