WEBVTT - Should I Turn Left....Or Right???

0:00:07.990 --> 0:00:12.230
<v Speaker 1>And now, broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio

0:00:12.250 --> 0:00:16.770
<v Speaker 1>at the George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

0:00:16.989 --> 0:00:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong and Getty. And now, here's Armstrong and Getty.

0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:31.640
<v Speaker 2>Hey, look, it's Thursday already. How exciting is that? Welcome

0:00:31.660 --> 0:00:34.740
<v Speaker 2>to another live episode of the Armstrong and Getty program.

0:00:35.690 --> 0:00:38.940
<v Speaker 2>From the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound, surrounded by razor

0:00:38.950 --> 0:00:42.910
<v Speaker 2>wire and moats. And dogs and bees and dogs that

0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:44.660
<v Speaker 2>when they bark, they shoot bees out of their mouths.

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:49.420
<v Speaker 2>So stay away from us. I just made coffee and

0:00:49.460 --> 0:00:53.140
<v Speaker 2>forgot to put the cup underneath the spout. So that's

0:00:53.159 --> 0:00:55.240
<v Speaker 2>how the day is starting. That's not a good sign

0:00:55.560 --> 0:01:02.200
<v Speaker 2>for my brain. Not a good sign for my brain. Man.

0:01:02.500 --> 0:01:06.350
<v Speaker 2>The other day, I was at the mall. So the

0:01:06.410 --> 0:01:09.110
<v Speaker 2>night before I was at an event and then the

0:01:09.170 --> 0:01:12.540
<v Speaker 2>next day I was at the mall twice in a, uh,

0:01:12.540 --> 0:01:16.339
<v Speaker 2>18 hour period, I lost my car, which I never do. I,

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:19.300
<v Speaker 2>I never do like twice in my entire life at

0:01:19.340 --> 0:01:21.540
<v Speaker 2>like some big sporting event or something like that where

0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:25.590
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't paying attention. But, uh, I did, uh, I

0:01:25.630 --> 0:01:28.910
<v Speaker 2>did twice in, uh, in a day last week. And

0:01:28.930 --> 0:01:31.509
<v Speaker 2>I thought I'm clearly got some sort of early onset,

0:01:31.550 --> 0:01:33.550
<v Speaker 2>something or other. And I'm not mocking that idea. I'm

0:01:33.590 --> 0:01:37.289
<v Speaker 2>just like, you know, worries me. Like, your whole life

0:01:37.330 --> 0:01:39.030
<v Speaker 2>you've been able to drive to the mall and park

0:01:39.069 --> 0:01:40.450
<v Speaker 2>and walk in and come out and walk right to

0:01:40.490 --> 0:01:43.930
<v Speaker 2>your car. And why now? Like I had zero memory

0:01:44.450 --> 0:01:47.830
<v Speaker 2>of pulling in, like not even the, not the tiny

0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 2>glimmer of that. I turned left or right when I

0:01:50.780 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>came in, did I come in that entrance or that entrance? Nothing.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 2>That's weird, isn't it? Should I see a doctor? I

0:01:56.880 --> 0:01:58.200
<v Speaker 2>don't know if I asked my doctor about it. And

0:01:58.220 --> 0:02:02.020
<v Speaker 2>he says, yeah, you're fine. Um, the, the old saying

0:02:02.060 --> 0:02:05.470
<v Speaker 2>that I always go with is, uh, Forgetting where you

0:02:05.490 --> 0:02:07.790
<v Speaker 2>put your keys is normal. Not knowing what your keys

0:02:07.850 --> 0:02:09.910
<v Speaker 2>are for is when you've got a problem. But does

0:02:09.950 --> 0:02:12.690
<v Speaker 2>it really have to be that much? Or is the

0:02:12.730 --> 0:02:15.780
<v Speaker 2>fact that I had zero memory of parking my car

0:02:15.810 --> 0:02:19.480
<v Speaker 2>an hour earlier mean something? If Joe was here, and

0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:21.160
<v Speaker 2>he's not, and he will call in later, if Joe

0:02:21.180 --> 0:02:23.120
<v Speaker 2>was here, he'd say it's sleep, which it might be.

0:02:23.540 --> 0:02:25.980
<v Speaker 2>I was running on very low sleep last week because

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I had a bunch of kid things going on, and

0:02:28.500 --> 0:02:31.320
<v Speaker 2>that might just be it right there. And the older

0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:33.660
<v Speaker 2>you get, the more you need... the sleep to make

0:02:33.700 --> 0:02:36.190
<v Speaker 2>all that filing stuff work for your brain. If you

0:02:36.210 --> 0:02:37.730
<v Speaker 2>know anything about it, if you're a doctor and you can,

0:02:38.270 --> 0:02:40.829
<v Speaker 2>you know, diagnose me for free over the radio, that'd

0:02:40.850 --> 0:02:43.790
<v Speaker 2>be fantastic. Go ahead and text. I'm going to tell

0:02:43.810 --> 0:02:45.750
<v Speaker 2>you this, why it's on my news, why it's on

0:02:45.770 --> 0:02:48.030
<v Speaker 2>my mind is some breaking news that I just heard.

0:02:48.730 --> 0:02:53.679
<v Speaker 2>There are new scanners that are showing up at airports

0:02:53.860 --> 0:02:56.760
<v Speaker 2>all across the country. There are already 1100 of them

0:02:56.900 --> 0:02:59.120
<v Speaker 2>out there and they're soon to be at every airport

0:02:59.180 --> 0:03:02.950
<v Speaker 2>and lots of people are are getting their regular bags

0:03:03.290 --> 0:03:06.950
<v Speaker 2>that they've been carrying onto planes for years turned away

0:03:07.450 --> 0:03:10.829
<v Speaker 2>because these new scanners are like an inch smaller or whatever.

0:03:10.990 --> 0:03:13.850
<v Speaker 2>They're going to start, well, I don't know if they're

0:03:13.870 --> 0:03:17.250
<v Speaker 2>tightening the restrictions or just enforcing the restrictions. We all

0:03:17.310 --> 0:03:22.079
<v Speaker 2>know that people, maybe you, maybe my kids, one of

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:25.040
<v Speaker 2>my kids especially, carry bags on that would not fit

0:03:25.139 --> 0:03:29.060
<v Speaker 2>in that thing. They've got that plastic box there somewhere

0:03:29.139 --> 0:03:31.880
<v Speaker 2>by the gate or something. wherever that your bag, if

0:03:31.919 --> 0:03:33.560
<v Speaker 2>your bag doesn't fit in here, you can't take it

0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:36.089
<v Speaker 2>on the plane. It's something like, it's gotta be like

0:03:36.190 --> 0:03:38.490
<v Speaker 2>two thirds of the bags that people carry on planes

0:03:38.550 --> 0:03:41.170
<v Speaker 2>would not fit into that box and they let it slide.

0:03:41.470 --> 0:03:43.310
<v Speaker 2>And then they don't fit in the overhead compartment or

0:03:43.350 --> 0:03:46.170
<v Speaker 2>instead of four fitting up there, you can only get three.

0:03:46.210 --> 0:03:48.030
<v Speaker 2>And that's why you end up in situations where there's

0:03:48.070 --> 0:03:49.780
<v Speaker 2>just not enough room for all the bikes. So I

0:03:49.800 --> 0:03:52.900
<v Speaker 2>guess these new scanners are going to really start enforcing that.

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:57.210
<v Speaker 2>So have a bag that actually meets the dimensions that

0:03:57.250 --> 0:04:00.510
<v Speaker 2>they claim or what they're doing is they're turning people

0:04:00.570 --> 0:04:02.190
<v Speaker 2>away and saying you need to go back to the

0:04:02.230 --> 0:04:05.870
<v Speaker 2>gate and check it, which unless you run way earlier

0:04:05.910 --> 0:04:07.730
<v Speaker 2>than I do at the airport is going to cause

0:04:08.290 --> 0:04:11.070
<v Speaker 2>a serious problem. So the jig is up on having

0:04:11.130 --> 0:04:15.670
<v Speaker 2>a bag that's too big for you. So President Xi

0:04:16.730 --> 0:04:19.810
<v Speaker 2>and his wife showed up yesterday in Washington, D.C. Trump

0:04:19.870 --> 0:04:23.250
<v Speaker 2>and Melania, who looked fantastic, met them at the tarmac,

0:04:23.310 --> 0:04:25.010
<v Speaker 2>which is being reported as a big deal. I don't

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 2>understand why that matters to anything. It doesn't. And and

0:04:28.620 --> 0:04:31.260
<v Speaker 2>they hung out for a while. And today they're having

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:32.940
<v Speaker 2>the big dinner tonight. They're having the big dinner. We'll

0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:34.700
<v Speaker 2>go through the menu for the dinner tonight a little

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 2>bit later because the menu is out, which is, of course, very,

0:04:36.700 --> 0:04:40.840
<v Speaker 2>very exciting. And there's all this talk of these things

0:04:40.880 --> 0:04:44.300
<v Speaker 2>that they're going to discuss with AI being at the

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:48.659
<v Speaker 2>top of the list. And looking at the guest list

0:04:48.740 --> 0:04:51.760
<v Speaker 2>that they announced yesterday of who is going to be

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:54.280
<v Speaker 2>at the meal, it certainly would lead me to believe

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:57.320
<v Speaker 2>that AI is among the more important things. Here's who's

0:04:57.360 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 2>going to be at the meal. Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk,

0:05:02.600 --> 0:05:08.779
<v Speaker 2>Mark Zuckerberg, Sundar Pichai from Google, Sam Altman, OpenAI, Greg Brockman, OpenAI.

0:05:09.710 --> 0:05:12.050
<v Speaker 2>Jensen from NVIDIA, the guy who runs NVIDIA, I think

0:05:12.130 --> 0:05:15.480
<v Speaker 2>the most valuable company in the world. Somebody from Microsoft,

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:18.040
<v Speaker 2>Tim Cook from Apple. Tim Cook formerly of Apple, or

0:05:18.060 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 2>has he still got a role somehow? Michael Dell from Dell.

0:05:23.000 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 2>So all the biggest heavyweights in the world around AI

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.850
<v Speaker 2>are going to be there. So I don't know what

0:05:28.990 --> 0:05:32.650
<v Speaker 2>the message is supposed to be. And then speaking of AI,

0:05:33.250 --> 0:05:35.830
<v Speaker 2>is this a coincidence or is this some sort of

0:05:35.970 --> 0:05:40.930
<v Speaker 2>planned rollout to make us all scared? OpenAI announced a

0:05:40.970 --> 0:05:47.150
<v Speaker 2>whole bunch of misdeeds, misbehavior by their chatbot that hadn't

0:05:47.190 --> 0:05:52.550
<v Speaker 2>previously been mentioned. And the prime minister of Australia yesterday

0:05:52.570 --> 0:05:55.670
<v Speaker 2>at the UN gave a little speech and said his

0:05:56.290 --> 0:06:01.160
<v Speaker 2>government had been hacked. It's the first so far example

0:06:01.420 --> 0:06:04.500
<v Speaker 2>of an AI going rogue and actually hacking into a government.

0:06:05.540 --> 0:06:07.190
<v Speaker 2>I can get into the details a little bit later.

0:06:07.220 --> 0:06:08.940
<v Speaker 2>I was reading it in the New York Times last night.

0:06:09.040 --> 0:06:13.200
<v Speaker 2>But the AI broke into the government of Australia. It

0:06:13.260 --> 0:06:18.039
<v Speaker 2>was bouncing around in their websites for a while. Didn't

0:06:18.220 --> 0:06:21.600
<v Speaker 2>get anything of note. Then they hacked into something else,

0:06:21.620 --> 0:06:23.660
<v Speaker 2>didn't get anything, and then hacked into something else that

0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:27.520
<v Speaker 2>they did get some information from. But it doesn't really

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.240
<v Speaker 2>matter whether they were successful or not. The thing is

0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:34.480
<v Speaker 2>that these AI agents were not supposed to do this.

0:06:35.190 --> 0:06:38.260
<v Speaker 2>They were given a very simple task to perform, and

0:06:38.339 --> 0:06:40.440
<v Speaker 2>for whatever reason, they decided to go on the Internet

0:06:40.580 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 2>and go hack into the Australian government. So if that

0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:48.570
<v Speaker 2>is true, that is troubling. I was just listening to

0:06:48.830 --> 0:06:53.640
<v Speaker 2>a skeptic. on News Nation, their expert they're talking to,

0:06:53.720 --> 0:06:57.820
<v Speaker 2>saying this coincidence is a little suspicious, the timing of

0:06:57.860 --> 0:07:01.460
<v Speaker 2>this announcement. So is the Australian prime minister in on

0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:04.780
<v Speaker 2>it with Sam Altman? I don't quite understand how that works,

0:07:04.820 --> 0:07:06.740
<v Speaker 2>but I know a lot of you believe this is

0:07:06.779 --> 0:07:11.460
<v Speaker 2>an orchestrated campaign to get regulatory capture for the biggest

0:07:11.500 --> 0:07:13.930
<v Speaker 2>companies in the world. I don't have any idea. Or

0:07:13.970 --> 0:07:15.710
<v Speaker 2>it's both, as Joe would say if he was here

0:07:15.750 --> 0:07:18.440
<v Speaker 2>and he is not, that it could be both, that

0:07:18.460 --> 0:07:22.260
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to get regulatory capture and AI has gotten

0:07:22.320 --> 0:07:25.140
<v Speaker 2>out of control and attacked the Australian government and we

0:07:25.180 --> 0:07:27.300
<v Speaker 2>need to be afraid, be very, very afraid. I can

0:07:27.340 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 2>get into the actual details of what happened. Well, the

0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:33.040
<v Speaker 2>other big headline that doesn't matter much to me because

0:07:33.180 --> 0:07:36.180
<v Speaker 2>I assumed this would happen is a judge stepped in

0:07:36.480 --> 0:07:42.420
<v Speaker 2>and CNN Politico and MS Now staff will be reinstated

0:07:42.660 --> 0:07:46.300
<v Speaker 2>access to White House press briefings. Of course they were.

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.740
<v Speaker 2>Of course a judge said that. It was inevitable. I

0:07:48.780 --> 0:07:51.160
<v Speaker 2>think Trump knew that when he said it. I think

0:07:51.180 --> 0:07:53.380
<v Speaker 2>all the media outlets knew it when Trump said it, too.

0:07:53.900 --> 0:07:57.360
<v Speaker 2>But acting like he's Hitler is more fun, so.

0:08:00.780 --> 0:08:05.400
<v Speaker 2>That's that. You're not one of those people, are you, Michael,

0:08:05.420 --> 0:08:07.260
<v Speaker 2>that carry a bag that's clearly too big to fit

0:08:07.320 --> 0:08:09.750
<v Speaker 2>up there. No, not at all. Would yours fit in

0:08:09.770 --> 0:08:12.590
<v Speaker 2>the plastic thing? Oh, yeah, easily. Really? Yeah. Well, you

0:08:12.610 --> 0:08:13.240
<v Speaker 2>follow the rules.

0:08:13.450 --> 0:08:13.620
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:08:14.300 --> 0:08:16.460
<v Speaker 2>My son's got one bag that's way too big, but

0:08:16.580 --> 0:08:18.260
<v Speaker 2>so does everybody else on the plane. It's not like

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:22.000
<v Speaker 2>he's the only one. Dude, they're going to send you back.

0:08:22.740 --> 0:08:25.460
<v Speaker 2>I'm a rule follower, so it bothers me. Like, if

0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:27.040
<v Speaker 2>I can't get my bag to fit up there, and

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:30.420
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, these bags, these two bags right here are

0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:34.490
<v Speaker 2>too big. They're your rules. Why don't you enforce your rules?

0:08:35.490 --> 0:08:37.740
<v Speaker 2>And it makes me angry. Hanson says he pushes it

0:08:37.780 --> 0:08:39.460
<v Speaker 2>to the limit and makes the bag as fat as

0:08:39.500 --> 0:08:41.960
<v Speaker 2>it can be. Yeah, that's what they're talking about. Overstuffed

0:08:42.020 --> 0:08:44.300
<v Speaker 2>bags will no longer fit through. It has to be

0:08:44.340 --> 0:08:46.160
<v Speaker 2>those dimensions because that's what a lot of people do.

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Your bag with nothing in it fits those dimensions, but

0:08:51.040 --> 0:08:53.540
<v Speaker 2>then a soft bag, you stuff it full and it's

0:08:53.590 --> 0:08:56.010
<v Speaker 2>like a giant, giant fat cow or something. And now

0:08:56.370 --> 0:08:58.930
<v Speaker 2>it's no longer that size anymore. Well, those aren't going

0:08:58.950 --> 0:09:01.890
<v Speaker 2>to fit through that little scanner anymore. So they're going

0:09:01.910 --> 0:09:04.609
<v Speaker 2>to use the scanner as the way to enforce the

0:09:04.650 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 2>rules and On the bag. And I just saved a

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.860
<v Speaker 2>whole bunch of you, I think, getting turned away and

0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:11.650
<v Speaker 2>having to go back to the gate and maybe miss

0:09:11.690 --> 0:09:14.510
<v Speaker 2>your flight. Like I said, the jig is up on

0:09:14.530 --> 0:09:16.730
<v Speaker 2>this whole taking a big bag on there. All right.

0:09:17.980 --> 0:09:20.780
<v Speaker 2>Let's start the show officially. Before we get in trouble

0:09:20.820 --> 0:09:23.599
<v Speaker 2>with the government, I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty. On this,

0:09:23.620 --> 0:09:27.380
<v Speaker 2>it is Thursday, September 24th of the year 2026. We

0:09:27.420 --> 0:09:29.700
<v Speaker 2>are Armstrong and Getty, and we approve of this here program.

0:09:29.740 --> 0:09:31.620
<v Speaker 2>And we will begin it at, let's wait until the

0:09:31.660 --> 0:09:33.400
<v Speaker 2>second hand gets their mark.

0:09:33.730 --> 0:09:36.589
<v Speaker 5>A golden retriever puppy in Northern California showed off some

0:09:36.670 --> 0:09:40.210
<v Speaker 5>leadership skills recently, taking this horse for a little walk.

0:09:40.230 --> 0:09:41.950
<v Speaker 2>The horse didn't resist a.

0:09:41.950 --> 0:09:44.530
<v Speaker 5>Bit, possibly because it thinks of itself as just a

0:09:44.590 --> 0:09:47.330
<v Speaker 5>big dog, which may be what the puppy is thinking, too.

0:09:49.260 --> 0:09:55.070
<v Speaker 2>There you go. There you go. You got a puppy

0:09:55.110 --> 0:09:57.450
<v Speaker 2>and a dog. That makes the news because that's where

0:09:57.490 --> 0:10:00.010
<v Speaker 2>we are. Or was that AI? Apparently, I fell for

0:10:00.050 --> 0:10:01.970
<v Speaker 2>an AI video that I put out on Twitter the

0:10:02.010 --> 0:10:05.949
<v Speaker 2>other day with this cute little kid, like practically a baby,

0:10:05.990 --> 0:10:07.880
<v Speaker 2>but able to walk. I guess you call that a toddler.

0:10:08.550 --> 0:10:11.660
<v Speaker 2>Toddled up to a woman pretending to be a statue

0:10:11.700 --> 0:10:13.840
<v Speaker 2>in a city. You know how people paint themselves gold

0:10:13.900 --> 0:10:16.620
<v Speaker 2>or silver and they pretend they're statues? And then you,

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:19.030
<v Speaker 2>for some reason... Because they went to the trouble to

0:10:19.070 --> 0:10:20.770
<v Speaker 2>paint themselves gold or silver, I'm supposed to put a

0:10:20.809 --> 0:10:22.730
<v Speaker 2>dollar in their hat? I don't know. Why am I

0:10:22.750 --> 0:10:25.949
<v Speaker 2>paying you for standing there like a statue? But this

0:10:25.990 --> 0:10:29.010
<v Speaker 2>little baby walked up to the statue and was amazed

0:10:29.050 --> 0:10:32.220
<v Speaker 2>and then kissed its hand. And the statue smiled and

0:10:32.250 --> 0:10:35.020
<v Speaker 2>the baby was so excited. Well, anyway, I said, is

0:10:35.040 --> 0:10:37.679
<v Speaker 2>this AI or is this the cutest thing I've ever seen?

0:10:37.780 --> 0:10:39.980
<v Speaker 2>And a bunch of people said, it's so obviously AI.

0:10:40.059 --> 0:10:43.309
<v Speaker 2>I must be an old man. Uh, Jack, Jack, oh, poor,

0:10:43.390 --> 0:10:46.030
<v Speaker 2>simple Jack was, was the response I got. So I

0:10:46.070 --> 0:10:49.750
<v Speaker 2>no longer can tell reality from AI apparently. And so

0:10:49.950 --> 0:10:52.220
<v Speaker 2>was the little dog and the horse, was that real?

0:10:52.670 --> 0:10:54.140
<v Speaker 2>Or would you like me to make a video? Would

0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:55.959
<v Speaker 2>you like me to make a hundred videos during the

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:58.719
<v Speaker 2>commercial break of a dog leading a horse or a

0:10:58.760 --> 0:11:01.819
<v Speaker 2>duck leading a pig or an ape leading a Michelangelo

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:04.080
<v Speaker 2>or whatever the heck I can make it very, very easily.

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:07.410
<v Speaker 2>And then, you know, what difference does it make? Nothing

0:11:07.450 --> 0:11:09.970
<v Speaker 2>matters anymore. Everything's fake. So that's where we are. We're

0:11:09.990 --> 0:11:11.870
<v Speaker 2>going to have headlines coming up in just a few minutes.

0:11:11.890 --> 0:11:13.550
<v Speaker 2>We'll get into some of the news of the day.

0:11:13.790 --> 0:11:15.510
<v Speaker 2>I do have the menu for the White Tie Dinner.

0:11:15.570 --> 0:11:19.450
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what any of this stuff is. It's

0:11:19.690 --> 0:11:20.870
<v Speaker 2>all on the way. Stay here.

0:11:22.429 --> 0:11:31.520
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show.

0:11:34.010 --> 0:11:36.340
<v Speaker 2>So Katie Green and her husband are celebrating their five-year

0:11:36.380 --> 0:11:38.700
<v Speaker 2>wedding anniversary, and they got a little baby, so hopefully

0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.140
<v Speaker 2>they're going to get a little time to be alone.

0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>But she's not here for the next two days, and

0:11:44.100 --> 0:11:46.120
<v Speaker 2>we have Heather Myers here. Heather, welcome to the Armstrong

0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:47.280
<v Speaker 2>and Getty Show. How's things going?

0:11:47.940 --> 0:11:48.940
<v Speaker 4>Hey, good morning.

0:11:49.020 --> 0:11:51.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, glad to be back and glad that Katie's

0:11:51.100 --> 0:11:54.429
<v Speaker 3>getting a little time to celebrate and get away for

0:11:54.450 --> 0:11:54.730
<v Speaker 3>a minute.

0:11:55.150 --> 0:11:57.390
<v Speaker 2>So before I get to your headlines, I'm looking over

0:11:57.429 --> 0:11:59.730
<v Speaker 2>the menu, which is now out for the dinner tonight

0:11:59.770 --> 0:12:02.809
<v Speaker 2>between President Xi and Trump, and it's very, very fancy.

0:12:03.460 --> 0:12:05.320
<v Speaker 2>It's a lot of words, a ton of words that

0:12:05.380 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what they are, which is fine with

0:12:07.820 --> 0:12:11.059
<v Speaker 2>me because I don't like I really despise fancy restaurants.

0:12:11.300 --> 0:12:13.980
<v Speaker 4>Would you order like the chicken fingers at the White House?

0:12:14.480 --> 0:12:17.380
<v Speaker 2>I'd get a cheeseburger if they had it. I get

0:12:17.420 --> 0:12:20.750
<v Speaker 2>some actually with gravy. I like things with mashed potatoes

0:12:20.790 --> 0:12:22.069
<v Speaker 2>and gravy. I like that sort of thing.

0:12:22.410 --> 0:12:23.189
<v Speaker 4>Biscuits and gravy.

0:12:23.210 --> 0:12:24.309
<v Speaker 2>But there's a lot of words I don't know.

0:12:24.429 --> 0:12:24.730
<v Speaker 1>Oh, yeah.

0:12:24.770 --> 0:12:27.670
<v Speaker 2>Biscuits and gravy would be fantastic. But they're toasted sesame

0:12:27.730 --> 0:12:32.290
<v Speaker 2>crusted sea bass. with braised baby bok choy. And apparently

0:12:32.330 --> 0:12:36.309
<v Speaker 2>the bok choy is the nod toward Chinese cuisine, which

0:12:36.390 --> 0:12:38.910
<v Speaker 2>is seen as an excellent touch. By the way, they're

0:12:39.010 --> 0:12:41.929
<v Speaker 2>using the Reagan China, in case you were wondering.

0:12:42.010 --> 0:12:44.699
<v Speaker 4>That sounds good to me. Yeah, what else is on it?

0:12:44.700 --> 0:12:46.940
<v Speaker 2>They're using the Reagan China. I will get into the

0:12:46.980 --> 0:12:49.420
<v Speaker 2>list a little bit later. And then one particular point

0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:52.060
<v Speaker 2>about the champagne they're having, which I actually think is

0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:56.870
<v Speaker 2>kind of important to talk about for odd reasons. But anyway,

0:12:56.890 --> 0:12:58.610
<v Speaker 2>let's find out what the headlines are. What is everybody

0:12:58.650 --> 0:12:59.870
<v Speaker 2>reporting with Heather Meyers?

0:13:00.670 --> 0:13:03.690
<v Speaker 3>All right, let's jump into the news on this Thursday.

0:13:03.710 --> 0:13:06.430
<v Speaker 3>Let's start with a headline here from CNN. CNN judge

0:13:06.630 --> 0:13:11.800
<v Speaker 3>orders Trump administration to immediately reinstate White House access to CNN, MSNOW,

0:13:11.860 --> 0:13:15.520
<v Speaker 3>and Politico. So let's find out how Politico feels about that.

0:13:15.559 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 4>From Politico, Politico barred from White House after a court

0:13:18.800 --> 0:13:20.260
<v Speaker 4>ruling restoring access.

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:23.470
<v Speaker 3>Apparently, one of the Secret Service agents took the press

0:13:23.530 --> 0:13:25.330
<v Speaker 3>badge from the political reporter.

0:13:25.470 --> 0:13:26.420
<v Speaker 2>Do we have any idea why?

0:13:26.970 --> 0:13:29.189
<v Speaker 4>I don't know why. I was trying to figure that out.

0:13:29.330 --> 0:13:32.939
<v Speaker 2>But I guess the question is, is this the Trump

0:13:32.980 --> 0:13:36.100
<v Speaker 2>White House defying the order or did the political reporter

0:13:36.179 --> 0:13:40.730
<v Speaker 2>do something new? Or mouth off. Or mouth off or

0:13:40.750 --> 0:13:42.070
<v Speaker 2>show up with a weapon or something.

0:13:42.190 --> 0:13:43.620
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. We will hope not, yeah.

0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:47.600
<v Speaker 3>And from MSNOW, Trump's White House press ban is dividing

0:13:47.660 --> 0:13:49.380
<v Speaker 3>Republicans on Capitol Hill.

0:13:49.540 --> 0:13:51.699
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's over now, right? The press ban is over,

0:13:51.820 --> 0:13:53.420
<v Speaker 2>so can we move on to something else?

0:13:53.480 --> 0:13:53.960
<v Speaker 4>It is over.

0:13:54.100 --> 0:13:55.300
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about the bok choy.

0:13:57.200 --> 0:13:59.200
<v Speaker 3>The sea bass still sounds good to me, even for breakfast.

0:13:59.740 --> 0:14:01.959
<v Speaker 3>All right, from The New York Times, Palestinian leader Mahmoud

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.380
<v Speaker 3>Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to deliver dueling

0:14:05.420 --> 0:14:08.440
<v Speaker 3>speeches at the U.N., Yeah.

0:14:08.580 --> 0:14:11.940
<v Speaker 2>That's going to be fiery. Some of the stuff that

0:14:12.240 --> 0:14:14.660
<v Speaker 2>Netanyahu said yesterday, we'll have for you a little bit later.

0:14:14.679 --> 0:14:19.020
<v Speaker 2>I mean, whoa, whoa, he came out strong. They'll be booing.

0:14:19.260 --> 0:14:21.020
<v Speaker 2>People will stand up and walk out of his speech

0:14:21.060 --> 0:14:24.040
<v Speaker 2>today like they did last year. But OK, back to you, Heather.

0:14:25.220 --> 0:14:28.100
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, tense, to say the least. You kind of touched

0:14:28.180 --> 0:14:29.590
<v Speaker 4>on this earlier from News Nation.

0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:33.710
<v Speaker 3>Trump welcomes China's Xi to the White House, Washington, with

0:14:33.770 --> 0:14:36.450
<v Speaker 3>a plain side ceremony, an extension of the trade truce.

0:14:37.480 --> 0:14:38.860
<v Speaker 4>It was a bit ceremonial yesterday.

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:44.220
<v Speaker 3>From NBC Los Angeles, Nithya Raman holds lead over Karen

0:14:44.260 --> 0:14:45.970
<v Speaker 3>Bass in new poll on L.A.

0:14:46.150 --> 0:14:47.230
<v Speaker 4>Mayoral election.

0:14:47.470 --> 0:14:50.490
<v Speaker 2>We talked about that with Lanhee Chen yesterday when that

0:14:50.530 --> 0:14:55.710
<v Speaker 2>poll was fresh off the presses. The socialist, she's not,

0:14:55.990 --> 0:14:58.230
<v Speaker 2>if I remember correctly, she's not a member of the

0:14:58.330 --> 0:15:02.170
<v Speaker 2>Democratic Socialists of America, but they have endorsed her. And

0:15:02.270 --> 0:15:05.310
<v Speaker 2>she has the same policies. But she is in the lead.

0:15:05.710 --> 0:15:07.710
<v Speaker 2>We might have the two biggest cities in America with

0:15:07.770 --> 0:15:08.710
<v Speaker 2>socialist mayors.

0:15:09.810 --> 0:15:11.730
<v Speaker 4>Not surprising to me at all.

0:15:13.290 --> 0:15:16.840
<v Speaker 3>From the Wall Street Journal, patients sue GOP1 drug makers

0:15:16.900 --> 0:15:18.680
<v Speaker 3>over risk of sudden vision loss.

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Whoa!

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:24.020
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing the ZEP bound. I'm on that one. I

0:15:24.060 --> 0:15:28.140
<v Speaker 2>don't want to go blind. I feel like I've lost

0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:30.210
<v Speaker 2>a couple of pounds, but I'm still not blind. Thank God.

0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:35.780
<v Speaker 3>Well, this is interesting because there's hundreds of lawsuits now

0:15:35.840 --> 0:15:38.800
<v Speaker 3>filed against multiple makers of these drugs, and some of

0:15:38.840 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 3>these patients are claiming that they woke up unable to

0:15:42.460 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 3>see out of one or both eyes.

0:15:43.820 --> 0:15:45.520
<v Speaker 4>And it is not reversible.

0:15:45.760 --> 0:15:48.420
<v Speaker 2>Oh, my God. Okay, I'm going to have to look

0:15:48.450 --> 0:15:50.350
<v Speaker 2>into this more. Holy cow, you wake up and you

0:15:50.390 --> 0:15:52.070
<v Speaker 2>can't see, and it's not reversible.

0:15:52.430 --> 0:15:53.450
<v Speaker 4>Not reversible.

0:15:53.490 --> 0:15:54.369
<v Speaker 2>But you're thin, so.

0:15:55.900 --> 0:15:57.140
<v Speaker 4>You can't see if you're thin or not.

0:15:57.420 --> 0:15:58.990
<v Speaker 2>That's true. Somebody will have to tell you.

0:15:59.790 --> 0:16:00.010
<v Speaker 1>Yes.

0:16:01.890 --> 0:16:05.090
<v Speaker 3>From NBC Los Angeles, lawsuits alleged Six Flags Magic Mountain

0:16:05.210 --> 0:16:08.930
<v Speaker 3>X2 roller coaster left riders with catastrophic brain injuries. More

0:16:08.950 --> 0:16:11.880
<v Speaker 3>than 100 people say they suffered life-altering brain injuries on

0:16:11.910 --> 0:16:14.100
<v Speaker 3>that ride. The ride's shut down now, but I think

0:16:14.280 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 3>even a person died.

0:16:16.360 --> 0:16:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I saw that on the news last night. Some woman,

0:16:18.500 --> 0:16:22.140
<v Speaker 2>a poor girl, was unable to speak. I mean, it's horrible. Wild.

0:16:22.160 --> 0:16:22.460
<v Speaker 1>Wild.

0:16:23.210 --> 0:16:27.310
<v Speaker 3>From Fox 5, warning issued for American travelers near Hurricane Polo,

0:16:27.370 --> 0:16:30.140
<v Speaker 3>one of the largest storms on record in the Eastern Pacific.

0:16:31.780 --> 0:16:35.640
<v Speaker 3>From Fox Business, Starbucks announced plans to close roughly 250

0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:37.860
<v Speaker 3>stores across North America this week.

0:16:38.700 --> 0:16:39.500
<v Speaker 2>Didn't know that.

0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:44.530
<v Speaker 3>Entrepreneur.com, for the first time in decades, not having a

0:16:44.610 --> 0:16:47.850
<v Speaker 3>college degree beats having a degree in the job market.

0:16:48.170 --> 0:16:50.270
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I got to do that story. Interesting.

0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:54.330
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's a story I really dug into for Newsmax

0:16:54.380 --> 0:16:56.470
<v Speaker 3>this week. And let me tell you, what I uncovered

0:16:56.490 --> 0:16:59.030
<v Speaker 3>having kids that are in high school age is fascinating.

0:16:59.050 --> 0:17:01.180
<v Speaker 2>Hey, if you've got time to tell us about that later,

0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:01.970
<v Speaker 2>we should have you on.

0:17:02.560 --> 0:17:05.740
<v Speaker 4>I would love to. I've learned so much. Let's get

0:17:05.760 --> 0:17:07.359
<v Speaker 4>to the Babylon Bee before I run out of time.

0:17:07.420 --> 0:17:10.270
<v Speaker 3>The Babylon Bee, now the only news outlet left in

0:17:10.290 --> 0:17:11.939
<v Speaker 3>America with White House credentials.

0:17:12.270 --> 0:17:12.639
<v Speaker 2>There you go.

0:17:12.660 --> 0:17:13.990
<v Speaker 4>Well, until the judge made the ruling.

0:17:14.650 --> 0:17:17.449
<v Speaker 2>Fantastic. Thank you, Heather. Yeah, we'll get that story from

0:17:17.490 --> 0:17:20.609
<v Speaker 2>Heather about now a high school degree beats a college

0:17:20.630 --> 0:17:22.950
<v Speaker 2>degree in terms of finding a job. That's interesting. We'll

0:17:22.970 --> 0:17:25.810
<v Speaker 2>look into that. And also the going blind from the

0:17:25.850 --> 0:17:26.669
<v Speaker 2>weight loss drugs.

0:17:26.890 --> 0:17:27.190
<v Speaker 4>What?

0:17:29.650 --> 0:17:36.270
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show.

0:17:39.050 --> 0:17:43.430
<v Speaker 6>We have gotten around close to 200 calls. There's so

0:17:43.470 --> 0:17:47.740
<v Speaker 6>much fear and unknown and they want answers. And, you know,

0:17:47.780 --> 0:17:49.880
<v Speaker 6>these are not minor side effects.

0:17:51.609 --> 0:17:55.470
<v Speaker 2>Uh, no, going blind is not a minor, minor, minor

0:17:55.530 --> 0:17:57.990
<v Speaker 2>side effect. Uh, if you weren't listening a few minutes

0:17:58.010 --> 0:18:00.469
<v Speaker 2>ago and Heather Myers do the headlines, there's a whole

0:18:00.490 --> 0:18:02.690
<v Speaker 2>bunch of lawsuits against some of the most popular weight

0:18:02.730 --> 0:18:06.030
<v Speaker 2>loss drugs out there. The GOP ones that, uh, something

0:18:06.050 --> 0:18:08.679
<v Speaker 2>like what, 15% of the country is on currently and

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:13.700
<v Speaker 2>growing very, very rapidly. including the one that I'm using, ZipBound,

0:18:14.180 --> 0:18:17.160
<v Speaker 2>where some people are going blind. And yeah, that's not

0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:19.480
<v Speaker 2>a minor side effect. So I've been digging into this

0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:22.260
<v Speaker 2>in the last five minutes as I'm somewhat concerned about this.

0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:26.700
<v Speaker 2>The guidelines have not changed, apparently. The drugs are still

0:18:26.740 --> 0:18:30.040
<v Speaker 2>being pushed. No doctors have said you shouldn't take them

0:18:30.060 --> 0:18:34.350
<v Speaker 2>yet or anything like that. Of course, that doesn't mean

0:18:34.420 --> 0:18:37.670
<v Speaker 2>it's not a problem necessarily. Let me read you a

0:18:37.710 --> 0:18:42.310
<v Speaker 2>little story here about what's going on. Hundreds of lawsuits

0:18:42.330 --> 0:18:46.270
<v Speaker 2>have been filed against major makers like Eli Lilly and

0:18:46.330 --> 0:18:52.000
<v Speaker 2>Novo Nordisk, which are the companies that, you know, are

0:18:52.520 --> 0:18:56.860
<v Speaker 2>behind some of the biggest names out there. Ozempic, Wigobi, Zepbound, Monjaro.

0:18:57.940 --> 0:19:00.420
<v Speaker 2>You know, those are the big ones. Everybody I know

0:19:01.260 --> 0:19:03.060
<v Speaker 2>that's on one of these is on one of those.

0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:04.860
<v Speaker 4>And.

0:19:05.480 --> 0:19:09.010
<v Speaker 2>The hundreds of lawsuits is over the idea that it

0:19:09.050 --> 0:19:12.689
<v Speaker 2>causes some vision problems, including blindness. In one case, now

0:19:12.730 --> 0:19:15.590
<v Speaker 2>this is one case, and he could have all kinds

0:19:15.630 --> 0:19:18.310
<v Speaker 2>of other things wrong with him. A 63-year-old man was

0:19:18.390 --> 0:19:22.310
<v Speaker 2>prescribed Ozempic to manage his diabetes just three years ago

0:19:22.410 --> 0:19:24.210
<v Speaker 2>and woke up four months later, couldn't see out of

0:19:24.290 --> 0:19:26.109
<v Speaker 2>one eye. Just woke up one morning, couldn't see out

0:19:26.130 --> 0:19:29.149
<v Speaker 2>of one eye. Without knowing the cause of his vision loss,

0:19:29.210 --> 0:19:32.290
<v Speaker 2>of course, it's like, wow, what happened? He kept taking his...

0:19:33.369 --> 0:19:35.750
<v Speaker 2>Whichever weight loss drug he was taking, because, you know,

0:19:35.770 --> 0:19:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to wear an eye patch. I think it's

0:19:39.420 --> 0:19:41.680
<v Speaker 2>eye patches are slimming, but think how much better you'd

0:19:41.700 --> 0:19:43.980
<v Speaker 2>look to continue to lose weight with your eye patch.

0:19:45.910 --> 0:19:48.010
<v Speaker 2>He continued to take the medication, lost sight in his

0:19:48.070 --> 0:19:52.820
<v Speaker 2>other eyes, now blind in both eyes. But thin. Gotta

0:19:52.859 --> 0:19:58.149
<v Speaker 2>keep throwing that in. So what happens is.

0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:02.879
<v Speaker 2>There's a lack of blood flow to the optic nerve

0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:06.010
<v Speaker 2>that comes along in some cases that comes along apparently

0:20:06.330 --> 0:20:09.610
<v Speaker 2>with the losing weight or whatever shuts down your desire

0:20:09.650 --> 0:20:11.230
<v Speaker 2>to eat or the food noise in your brain or

0:20:11.270 --> 0:20:14.929
<v Speaker 2>however these things work. Lack of blood flow to the

0:20:15.090 --> 0:20:17.550
<v Speaker 2>eyes and there's no treatment. Your eye goes bad and

0:20:17.570 --> 0:20:22.810
<v Speaker 2>there's no fixing it. Both Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly

0:20:22.830 --> 0:20:27.710
<v Speaker 2>have denied any significant relationship between their medications and going blind.

0:20:28.790 --> 0:20:31.230
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure they have, as opposed to saying, you know,

0:20:32.109 --> 0:20:35.390
<v Speaker 2>happens now and then. I wouldn't worry about it. They're

0:20:35.410 --> 0:20:39.050
<v Speaker 2>saying it's not. But the first thing I checked is

0:20:39.250 --> 0:20:42.680
<v Speaker 2>anybody anywhere recommending you don't take these because of this.

0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:47.160
<v Speaker 2>And so far, nobody is. It's real, but very rare,

0:20:47.700 --> 0:20:52.560
<v Speaker 2>according to a quick grok of the thing. It says

0:20:52.600 --> 0:20:55.280
<v Speaker 2>here it sits next to large proven benefits on weight,

0:20:55.380 --> 0:20:58.780
<v Speaker 2>blood sugar, heart disease and kidney disease. I don't care, really. Well,

0:20:58.800 --> 0:21:00.699
<v Speaker 2>if I'm going to if I've got some sort of

0:21:00.820 --> 0:21:03.200
<v Speaker 2>diabetes or something like that and I'm going to die, obviously,

0:21:03.260 --> 0:21:05.310
<v Speaker 2>I'd take the weight loss drug with the minor risk.

0:21:05.350 --> 0:21:09.530
<v Speaker 2>But I'm losing weight, but I'm going blind is not

0:21:09.550 --> 0:21:13.650
<v Speaker 2>a good pitch. The risk is about point zero nine percent.

0:21:14.490 --> 0:21:17.990
<v Speaker 2>It still seems too high to me. Almost one percent,

0:21:18.070 --> 0:21:22.780
<v Speaker 2>almost one out of 100 now can't be. Doctors are

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.750
<v Speaker 2>not turning away from these. Lawsuits can run for years

0:21:25.890 --> 0:21:29.510
<v Speaker 2>without changing prescribing. The FDA adding a U.S. label warning

0:21:29.550 --> 0:21:31.830
<v Speaker 2>would be the event that actually shifts practice, but that

0:21:31.850 --> 0:21:36.860
<v Speaker 2>has not happened yet, according to Grok. Okay, well, I'll

0:21:36.880 --> 0:21:38.580
<v Speaker 2>keep an eye on this as long as I can.

0:21:40.320 --> 0:21:42.220
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I can't. Maybe somebody will have to tell me

0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:45.859
<v Speaker 2>about it because I'll be blind. And again, was that

0:21:45.900 --> 0:21:48.030
<v Speaker 2>you that said that, Michael, or was that Heather that

0:21:49.140 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 2>Somebody would have to tell you you're thinner because you

0:21:51.140 --> 0:21:52.740
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't be able to look in the mirror and enjoy

0:21:54.100 --> 0:21:55.679
<v Speaker 2>what you look like in your new dress or your

0:21:55.740 --> 0:22:01.200
<v Speaker 2>new jeans or whatever. You look great, do I? You'll

0:22:01.220 --> 0:22:03.760
<v Speaker 2>have to tell me. Boy, that's quite a development in

0:22:03.800 --> 0:22:06.260
<v Speaker 2>a very, very, very popular drug. Okay, different topic that

0:22:06.300 --> 0:22:09.159
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to get into. The state dinner that is

0:22:09.220 --> 0:22:12.500
<v Speaker 2>happening tonight. We've talked about this a fair amount over

0:22:12.520 --> 0:22:14.980
<v Speaker 2>the years, but I really can't talk about it enough.

0:22:15.500 --> 0:22:20.310
<v Speaker 2>I think it's one of the... blind spots of any

0:22:20.369 --> 0:22:25.330
<v Speaker 2>conversation that happens around the whole China thing. So tonight

0:22:25.850 --> 0:22:30.260
<v Speaker 2>at the dinner, they are going to have their opening

0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:35.540
<v Speaker 2>toast is going to be with Schramsberg Blanc Dinor's sparkling wine.

0:22:36.240 --> 0:22:37.739
<v Speaker 2>As you can tell, I'm not fancy and I don't

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:40.760
<v Speaker 2>know what these things are, but that is deliberately a

0:22:41.060 --> 0:22:44.239
<v Speaker 2>tip of the cap to president Nixon and shoe and

0:22:44.340 --> 0:22:48.630
<v Speaker 2>lie and the Chinese counterpart back in the day in

0:22:48.650 --> 0:22:53.010
<v Speaker 2>1972's Toast to Peace. What we now know, or I

0:22:53.090 --> 0:22:56.470
<v Speaker 2>think we know because of Michael Pillsbury's book that came

0:22:56.530 --> 0:22:58.629
<v Speaker 2>out a few years ago, he was involved in the

0:22:58.670 --> 0:23:02.889
<v Speaker 2>negotiations back in the day with the Nixon administration and

0:23:02.930 --> 0:23:06.990
<v Speaker 2>Henry Kissinger and Chairman Mao in opening up China, using

0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:08.940
<v Speaker 2>my finger quotes, because that's the way it has been

0:23:08.980 --> 0:23:11.939
<v Speaker 2>portrayed by the media and historians all these years, is

0:23:12.000 --> 0:23:15.520
<v Speaker 2>that Nixon helped open up China and You know, allow

0:23:15.560 --> 0:23:18.920
<v Speaker 2>them to. Well, the theory was we're going to open

0:23:18.960 --> 0:23:22.290
<v Speaker 2>them up to a more free market style economy, open

0:23:22.310 --> 0:23:24.629
<v Speaker 2>them up to the world. They will get richer. And

0:23:24.650 --> 0:23:27.250
<v Speaker 2>of course, when you get richer, you allow people more

0:23:27.410 --> 0:23:33.250
<v Speaker 2>freedoms and you become a responsible actor on the world stage.

0:23:33.270 --> 0:23:34.850
<v Speaker 2>And you'll be a friend of the United States. And

0:23:34.869 --> 0:23:37.369
<v Speaker 2>that's how we balance everything against the Soviet Union at

0:23:37.410 --> 0:23:40.630
<v Speaker 2>the time or Russia now or any other evildoers. Well,

0:23:41.270 --> 0:23:44.020
<v Speaker 2>China did get a lot richer over the years. It

0:23:44.060 --> 0:23:47.890
<v Speaker 2>turns out with no intention of becoming a good actor

0:23:47.990 --> 0:23:52.659
<v Speaker 2>on the world stage. or abandoning their communist proclivities or

0:23:52.700 --> 0:23:54.780
<v Speaker 2>their desire to take over the world. That was all

0:23:54.820 --> 0:24:00.209
<v Speaker 2>a ruse. They allowed the United States to invest in

0:24:00.270 --> 0:24:04.050
<v Speaker 2>them all these decades and give them all of these

0:24:04.230 --> 0:24:07.250
<v Speaker 2>breaks on all kinds of different tariffs and world taxes

0:24:07.290 --> 0:24:09.230
<v Speaker 2>and all these different sorts of things so that they

0:24:09.270 --> 0:24:11.790
<v Speaker 2>could rise in the economy. And all they did was

0:24:11.869 --> 0:24:17.330
<v Speaker 2>make themselves a global superpower, quickly chasing us to try

0:24:17.369 --> 0:24:20.199
<v Speaker 2>to become our equal nation. and with the goal of

0:24:21.050 --> 0:24:23.590
<v Speaker 2>actually replacing us. That's the goal of China. So we

0:24:23.609 --> 0:24:26.230
<v Speaker 2>got completely gamed on that whole thing, and I think

0:24:26.250 --> 0:24:28.370
<v Speaker 2>that should be talked about more often. So the idea

0:24:28.390 --> 0:24:32.330
<v Speaker 2>that they're having a toast with the same champagne that

0:24:32.450 --> 0:24:36.370
<v Speaker 2>Nixon used when the ruse began, I find a little galling.

0:24:37.030 --> 0:24:40.510
<v Speaker 2>As to the economy, China is now the second biggest

0:24:40.570 --> 0:24:43.669
<v Speaker 2>economy in the world, although it is still way behind

0:24:43.710 --> 0:24:49.409
<v Speaker 2>the United States. Back in 1972... China's when this all started,

0:24:49.790 --> 0:24:55.660
<v Speaker 2>China's economy was roughly the same as Canada's in 1972

0:24:55.660 --> 0:24:59.260
<v Speaker 2>before we opened them up. They allowed themselves to be

0:24:59.300 --> 0:25:04.220
<v Speaker 2>invested in. With one hand behind their back, building their military,

0:25:04.460 --> 0:25:08.620
<v Speaker 2>pretending they were going to be a responsible actor. They

0:25:08.660 --> 0:25:11.869
<v Speaker 2>went from being the same size economy as Canada to

0:25:12.450 --> 0:25:14.890
<v Speaker 2>number two. And if you remember a couple of years ago,

0:25:14.910 --> 0:25:16.980
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people believe China was going to pass us.

0:25:17.670 --> 0:25:19.910
<v Speaker 2>in terms of their economy, that has all gotten slowed

0:25:19.950 --> 0:25:21.890
<v Speaker 2>down for reasons that Joe talks about all the time.

0:25:22.390 --> 0:25:25.409
<v Speaker 2>On a per capita basis, because they got so many people,

0:25:25.990 --> 0:25:32.639
<v Speaker 2>back in 1972, their economy, with the fact that they

0:25:33.100 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 2>had 870 million people, meant that the GDP, the gross

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:44.580
<v Speaker 2>domestic product per person, In China, it was $ 130 a year.

0:25:44.580 --> 0:25:46.720
<v Speaker 2>$ 130 a year, which is absolutely amazing. Making one of

0:25:46.880 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 2>the poorest countries per person in the entire world. I mean,

0:26:02.760 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 2>just like those countries in Africa where they're sitting around

0:26:05.840 --> 0:26:08.280
<v Speaker 2>in the dirt with flies buzzing around their heads, starving.

0:26:08.619 --> 0:26:11.900
<v Speaker 2>They were that kind of poor in 1972 until we

0:26:11.920 --> 0:26:13.660
<v Speaker 2>and the rest of the world gave them a hand

0:26:13.780 --> 0:26:15.639
<v Speaker 2>up so they could become a big, powerful country and

0:26:15.660 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 2>now threaten the world. That's one of the biggest mistakes

0:26:18.980 --> 0:26:24.359
<v Speaker 2>in the history of the planet. But we'll see what

0:26:24.400 --> 0:26:26.220
<v Speaker 2>comes out of the dinner tonight. I don't expect a

0:26:26.270 --> 0:26:30.010
<v Speaker 2>whole lot. Deep red table linens tonight, red floral arrangements.

0:26:30.070 --> 0:26:33.100
<v Speaker 2>And as I mentioned earlier, the Reagan China will be

0:26:33.140 --> 0:26:35.610
<v Speaker 2>brought out with alternating red and gold bands. If this

0:26:35.690 --> 0:26:38.189
<v Speaker 2>matters to you, you are a very, very weird person.

0:26:40.590 --> 0:26:43.369
<v Speaker 2>Somebody spent, you know, they had meetings with like a

0:26:43.470 --> 0:26:46.540
<v Speaker 2>dozen people in a room arguing over this stuff for hours,

0:26:46.580 --> 0:26:49.220
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure. The dessert is White House honey ice cream.

0:26:49.240 --> 0:26:51.399
<v Speaker 2>That sounds pretty good. Trump doesn't drink, so I don't

0:26:51.440 --> 0:26:54.040
<v Speaker 2>know what he does when he has a toast. Probably

0:26:54.080 --> 0:26:59.550
<v Speaker 2>does water. First course, a sweet yellow squash with wild mushroom.

0:27:00.130 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm skipping a bunch of words I can't pronounce. Chris

0:27:02.580 --> 0:27:05.380
<v Speaker 2>smoked something or other and something or other. The main

0:27:05.460 --> 0:27:09.190
<v Speaker 2>course is a toasted sesame-crusted sea bass with braised baby

0:27:09.230 --> 0:27:13.949
<v Speaker 2>bok choy, as I said earlier. A nod to Chinese cuisine, apparently.

0:27:14.330 --> 0:27:17.930
<v Speaker 2>Garden eggplant. I think eggplant is gross. And fresh herb

0:27:18.330 --> 0:27:23.580
<v Speaker 2>sauce verte? I don't know these words. And the meal

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:26.020
<v Speaker 2>does not start until 8.10, which for me is too

0:27:26.060 --> 0:27:28.190
<v Speaker 2>late at night. It's going to upset my stomach to

0:27:28.210 --> 0:27:31.030
<v Speaker 2>eat that late, especially if I'm an 80-year-old man. So

0:27:31.090 --> 0:27:37.170
<v Speaker 2>Trump is 80 and Xi is 77, 70, 78, something

0:27:37.190 --> 0:27:38.830
<v Speaker 2>like that. A couple of old men eating at 8

0:27:38.830 --> 0:27:40.450
<v Speaker 2>o'clock at night. I don't know what's going on there.

0:27:42.140 --> 0:27:44.560
<v Speaker 2>We have some real information around what's going on between

0:27:44.580 --> 0:27:47.219
<v Speaker 2>the United States and China. And if AI is going

0:27:47.240 --> 0:27:51.520
<v Speaker 2>to be the topic, I suppose these recent hacks... that

0:27:51.630 --> 0:27:57.740
<v Speaker 2>were unveiled just yesterday by OpenAI. Six more incidents of

0:27:57.820 --> 0:28:00.879
<v Speaker 2>their AI going rogue and jumping on the internet and

0:28:00.920 --> 0:28:03.080
<v Speaker 2>trying to hack into governments and big websites and all

0:28:03.100 --> 0:28:06.320
<v Speaker 2>that sort of stuff, which is either a ruse to

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:10.459
<v Speaker 2>try to get regulation to their benefit or the scary AF,

0:28:10.600 --> 0:28:12.620
<v Speaker 2>as the kids would say. So it's one of those

0:28:12.660 --> 0:28:14.640
<v Speaker 2>two things, but we'll nail down what those are coming

0:28:14.680 --> 0:28:15.980
<v Speaker 2>up a little bit later. Is there anything I got

0:28:16.000 --> 0:28:18.879
<v Speaker 2>to say before I take a break, Michael? Okay, I

0:28:18.900 --> 0:28:21.379
<v Speaker 2>got to do this. Which is just a good idea

0:28:21.680 --> 0:28:24.639
<v Speaker 2>with the scary, scary Internet out there. Man, if you

0:28:24.680 --> 0:28:27.619
<v Speaker 2>don't have some sort of protection for all your stuff,

0:28:27.720 --> 0:28:32.110
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. You're crazy in the modern world. So

0:28:32.150 --> 0:28:35.149
<v Speaker 2>your online life is busy. Cyber threats never take a

0:28:35.190 --> 0:28:38.050
<v Speaker 2>day off. Did you know that? That's why you need NordVPN.

0:28:38.110 --> 0:28:40.590
<v Speaker 2>NordVPN is more than a VPN. It's an all-in-one digital

0:28:40.610 --> 0:28:43.470
<v Speaker 2>security app with tools designed to help keep you safer online.

0:28:44.010 --> 0:28:48.450
<v Speaker 2>NordVPN's built-in next-gen antivirus works quietly in the background, helping

0:28:48.510 --> 0:28:51.610
<v Speaker 2>protect you 24-7. This is what I use. It scans

0:28:51.650 --> 0:28:54.650
<v Speaker 2>website URLs, warns you about scams, and helps stop fake

0:28:54.690 --> 0:28:58.560
<v Speaker 2>pages linked to malware, phishing, and fraud. Also, scans files

0:28:58.860 --> 0:29:01.219
<v Speaker 2>as you download them, because I always worry when I'm

0:29:01.260 --> 0:29:05.230
<v Speaker 2>downloading something from some site. It blocks intrusive ads, stops

0:29:05.270 --> 0:29:07.770
<v Speaker 2>trackers from following your browsing habits, all that good stuff.

0:29:07.790 --> 0:29:10.330
<v Speaker 2>Even goes on the dark web. So here's what you

0:29:10.370 --> 0:29:16.870
<v Speaker 2>need to do. NordVPN.com. visit NordVPN.com. That's all you need

0:29:16.880 --> 0:29:21.790
<v Speaker 2>to do. Go to NordVPN.com. NordVPN.com to get NordVPN with

0:29:21.810 --> 0:29:25.650
<v Speaker 2>the next-gen antivirus. NordVPN Connect and Protect is a good idea.

0:29:25.910 --> 0:29:27.970
<v Speaker 2>You're probably going to extra want it after I tell

0:29:27.990 --> 0:29:29.970
<v Speaker 2>you the story about all the hacking that OpenAI did.

0:29:30.010 --> 0:29:32.010
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we'll get to that in hour two and a

0:29:32.010 --> 0:29:33.430
<v Speaker 2>bunch of other stuff that's on the way. Stay here.

0:29:35.010 --> 0:29:48.450
<v Speaker 1>Armstrong and Getty. The Armstrong and Getty Show.

0:29:51.330 --> 0:29:54.590
<v Speaker 7>According to a new study, women with abnormally large breasts

0:29:55.090 --> 0:29:58.989
<v Speaker 7>are 40 percent more likely to suffer from migraines. The

0:29:59.010 --> 0:30:02.090
<v Speaker 7>migraines disappear, however, when they stop jumping rope.

0:30:04.210 --> 0:30:08.420
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, no. You got to give me a

0:30:08.420 --> 0:30:11.220
<v Speaker 2>different joke. I can't I can't have that taste in

0:30:11.260 --> 0:30:11.580
<v Speaker 2>my mouth.

0:30:13.980 --> 0:30:16.880
<v Speaker 7>A woman in New York fell into a backyard sinkhole

0:30:17.020 --> 0:30:20.590
<v Speaker 7>on her birthday, which is weird because Usually it's the

0:30:20.650 --> 0:30:23.470
<v Speaker 7>birthday girl who gets to make a wish, not her husband.

0:30:24.290 --> 0:30:26.670
<v Speaker 2>Whoa.

0:30:28.290 --> 0:30:28.670
<v Speaker 1>What?

0:30:31.890 --> 0:30:35.160
<v Speaker 2>You think her husband wished his wife would get swallowed

0:30:35.180 --> 0:30:38.200
<v Speaker 2>up by a sinkhole? What is that? What kind of

0:30:38.380 --> 0:30:43.980
<v Speaker 2>dark view of humanity is that? Anybody see Mark Zuckerberg's

0:30:44.060 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 2>big announcement yesterday about their VR glasses that they got

0:30:47.400 --> 0:30:48.800
<v Speaker 2>coming out? I'm going to talk about that a little

0:30:48.820 --> 0:30:52.550
<v Speaker 2>bit later. Boy, he is awkward. Poor Mark Zuckerberg. He

0:30:52.570 --> 0:30:54.090
<v Speaker 2>came out there and did one of those tried to

0:30:54.130 --> 0:30:56.090
<v Speaker 2>do the Apple thing, you know, where you got the

0:30:56.150 --> 0:30:58.670
<v Speaker 2>crowd and you're on stage with the big screen behind

0:30:58.690 --> 0:31:00.550
<v Speaker 2>you and you come out as a cool guy and

0:31:00.570 --> 0:31:02.610
<v Speaker 2>he just looks like such a dork. He talks like

0:31:02.650 --> 0:31:05.810
<v Speaker 2>a dork. He's so he's so clearly uncomfortable in his

0:31:05.910 --> 0:31:08.740
<v Speaker 2>own skin. But anyway, the product looks pretty cool. And

0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:13.470
<v Speaker 2>we'll talk a little bit about that later. I'm curious, Michael, uh,

0:31:13.520 --> 0:31:16.120
<v Speaker 2>Katie's not here. Joe's not here. So I'm practically alone. Cheers, Michael.

0:31:16.140 --> 0:31:18.760
<v Speaker 2>Have you, are you familiar with, can you finish this phrase?

0:31:19.240 --> 0:31:22.140
<v Speaker 2>Lizzie Borden took an ax. Do you know that or no?

0:31:22.340 --> 0:31:22.540
<v Speaker 1>No.

0:31:22.800 --> 0:31:24.580
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I don't know how popular that is in the

0:31:24.620 --> 0:31:26.900
<v Speaker 2>modern world. Lizzie Borden took an ax and gave her

0:31:26.940 --> 0:31:29.290
<v Speaker 2>mother 40 wax. When she saw what she had done,

0:31:29.350 --> 0:31:32.070
<v Speaker 2>she gave her father 41. I knew that one as

0:31:32.110 --> 0:31:36.950
<v Speaker 2>a kid. This is based on a murder that happened many,

0:31:36.990 --> 0:31:45.040
<v Speaker 2>many years ago. Um, in 1892 actually uh that um

0:31:45.300 --> 0:31:48.020
<v Speaker 2>captured the attention of the nation for a while and

0:31:48.240 --> 0:31:49.820
<v Speaker 2>one of the reason i bring this up is i

0:31:50.000 --> 0:31:53.240
<v Speaker 2>was just scrolling through netflix and there's a new netflix

0:31:53.280 --> 0:31:56.820
<v Speaker 2>series about lizzie borden that is coming out that looks

0:31:57.000 --> 0:32:00.600
<v Speaker 2>really good it's called monster the lizzie borden story and

0:32:00.660 --> 0:32:06.110
<v Speaker 2>it's um highly fictionalized according to everything i've read Based

0:32:06.160 --> 0:32:09.850
<v Speaker 2>around the basic story, if you don't know it, Lizzie

0:32:09.950 --> 0:32:14.350
<v Speaker 2>Borden was 32 years old at the time, unmarried, living

0:32:14.430 --> 0:32:21.810
<v Speaker 2>with her dad and stepmother. At some point, someone hacked

0:32:21.930 --> 0:32:25.340
<v Speaker 2>mom to death with a hatchet, then went downstairs and

0:32:25.390 --> 0:32:29.620
<v Speaker 2>hacked dad to death with a hatchet. Lizzie Borden, the daughter,

0:32:30.080 --> 0:32:33.080
<v Speaker 2>discovered the bodies using my finger quotes because nobody knows

0:32:33.340 --> 0:32:37.000
<v Speaker 2>for sure what happened. And eventually they arrested Lizzie Borden

0:32:37.550 --> 0:32:42.570
<v Speaker 2>for hatcheting to death her mom and dad. She was

0:32:42.630 --> 0:32:45.450
<v Speaker 2>put on trial and sort of like the Clancy trial

0:32:45.550 --> 0:32:48.800
<v Speaker 2>captured the national attention for a couple of weeks there.

0:32:49.100 --> 0:32:54.200
<v Speaker 2>The Lizzie Borden trial became a sensational trial nationwide. And

0:32:54.320 --> 0:32:57.700
<v Speaker 2>obviously CNN did not exist at that time. A young

0:32:57.740 --> 0:33:02.630
<v Speaker 2>wolf blitzer. People follow it in the newspaper, obviously. And

0:33:03.070 --> 0:33:05.150
<v Speaker 2>it was very, very exciting. But the trial went on

0:33:05.170 --> 0:33:07.230
<v Speaker 2>for a long time and all kinds of different testimony

0:33:07.290 --> 0:33:09.360
<v Speaker 2>and people with theories and people talking about and everything

0:33:09.400 --> 0:33:12.980
<v Speaker 2>like that. But an all male jury acquitted Lizzie of

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:17.280
<v Speaker 2>the murders. Nobody was ever accused at any point. And

0:33:17.300 --> 0:33:20.940
<v Speaker 2>the murders have gone unsolved all these different years. There

0:33:20.980 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 2>is a fair amount of evidence to lead you to

0:33:23.010 --> 0:33:26.330
<v Speaker 2>believe that Lizzie Borden actually did commit the murders. She

0:33:26.350 --> 0:33:30.530
<v Speaker 2>had apparently, this is factual, this is in the Netflix series,

0:33:30.550 --> 0:33:34.920
<v Speaker 2>but this part is factual. She tried to purchase a poison,

0:33:34.940 --> 0:33:39.720
<v Speaker 2>an acid, a special kind of cyanide from a druggist

0:33:39.860 --> 0:33:42.590
<v Speaker 2>just days before she hatcheted her mom and dad to death.

0:33:43.460 --> 0:33:46.110
<v Speaker 2>and the druggist wouldn't sell it to her. And then

0:33:46.390 --> 0:33:48.990
<v Speaker 2>a couple of days after the murders, Lizzie was seen

0:33:49.130 --> 0:33:52.830
<v Speaker 2>burning a dress in a kitchen stove, and she said

0:33:52.850 --> 0:33:55.410
<v Speaker 2>that she had spilled paint on it. To me, that's

0:33:55.510 --> 0:33:58.250
<v Speaker 2>all you need to know. Lizzie Borden did take an

0:33:58.350 --> 0:34:00.230
<v Speaker 2>axe and gave her mother 40 whacks. Actually, it was

0:34:00.250 --> 0:34:03.510
<v Speaker 2>more like 11, they said. But that doesn't rhyme as well.

0:34:04.710 --> 0:34:06.950
<v Speaker 2>And she got away with it, apparently. But the Netflix

0:34:06.970 --> 0:34:10.799
<v Speaker 2>series looks pretty darn entertaining, if you haven't seen it.

0:34:12.860 --> 0:34:14.060
<v Speaker 2>I'll watch a little bit of it and tell you

0:34:14.080 --> 0:34:17.100
<v Speaker 2>what I think. Oh, speaking of new shows that are out,

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:20.150
<v Speaker 2>I saw this review. Maybe you've seen the ads for

0:34:20.170 --> 0:34:22.630
<v Speaker 2>the new movie Heart of the Beast. It's got Brad

0:34:22.690 --> 0:34:26.489
<v Speaker 2>Pitt and a dog. That's all I've seen from the ads.

0:34:26.930 --> 0:34:29.130
<v Speaker 2>I just saw this review from the Los Angeles Times.

0:34:29.710 --> 0:34:32.250
<v Speaker 2>A dog steals Heart of the Beast while Brad Pitt's

0:34:32.310 --> 0:34:33.469
<v Speaker 2>charm is kept on a leash.

0:34:34.030 --> 0:34:34.170
<v Speaker 1>Huh?

0:34:34.790 --> 0:34:36.730
<v Speaker 2>Kept on a leash. Do you get it? It's a

0:34:36.730 --> 0:34:40.090
<v Speaker 2>dog reference. Brad Pitt's charm is kept on a leash.

0:34:40.800 --> 0:34:46.250
<v Speaker 2>That's unfortunate. Back to the metaglasses, if you haven't seen

0:34:46.450 --> 0:34:49.740
<v Speaker 2>this or heard about it, we talked a fair amount

0:34:49.760 --> 0:34:52.300
<v Speaker 2>about Apple's Vision Pro when it came out. Thought maybe

0:34:52.340 --> 0:34:54.200
<v Speaker 2>it was going to, well, there's been a whole bunch

0:34:54.219 --> 0:34:55.899
<v Speaker 2>of products that have come out over the last several

0:34:55.920 --> 0:34:58.540
<v Speaker 2>years that were supposed to revolutionize VR. VR was going

0:34:58.560 --> 0:35:02.060
<v Speaker 2>to be the next big thing. God, I don't remember

0:35:02.080 --> 0:35:04.899
<v Speaker 2>talking about this. I have no idea how many years

0:35:04.940 --> 0:35:08.140
<v Speaker 2>ago this would have been. 15, 20 years ago? We

0:35:08.580 --> 0:35:12.300
<v Speaker 2>were talking about VR and some company that did VR.

0:35:13.360 --> 0:35:15.089
<v Speaker 2>called us up and said, hey, let us come out

0:35:15.130 --> 0:35:17.009
<v Speaker 2>and show you how great VR is. And they came

0:35:17.070 --> 0:35:18.989
<v Speaker 2>out to the radio station and they set it all

0:35:19.030 --> 0:35:20.750
<v Speaker 2>up in a room. And at this time, it required

0:35:21.230 --> 0:35:24.489
<v Speaker 2>a big room and a whole bunch of different standalone

0:35:24.570 --> 0:35:26.900
<v Speaker 2>cameras and stuff like this. And you wore your big headset.

0:35:26.940 --> 0:35:28.360
<v Speaker 2>And Joe and I both did it and thought it

0:35:28.400 --> 0:35:31.480
<v Speaker 2>was really, really cool. We got to, you're on the

0:35:31.860 --> 0:35:35.140
<v Speaker 2>deck of a ship and doing all this different stuff

0:35:35.180 --> 0:35:38.630
<v Speaker 2>and is incredibly realistic. And I thought, everybody thought at

0:35:38.670 --> 0:35:41.060
<v Speaker 2>the time that VR was going to be the next

0:35:41.100 --> 0:35:44.060
<v Speaker 2>big thing. Never really caught on for a variety of reasons.

0:35:44.100 --> 0:35:47.190
<v Speaker 2>Then Apple Vision Pro came out five years ago, probably.

0:35:48.090 --> 0:35:53.489
<v Speaker 2>And if you ever tried that, stunning, absolutely stunning. Do

0:35:53.530 --> 0:35:56.750
<v Speaker 2>the demonstrations. Go to Apple. Go to their website. Go

0:35:56.770 --> 0:35:59.089
<v Speaker 2>to an Apple store and do the demonstration sometime. I mean,

0:35:59.160 --> 0:36:02.100
<v Speaker 2>it is mind-blowing how good that is. But it didn't

0:36:02.120 --> 0:36:06.000
<v Speaker 2>catch on. Very few people bought them, partially because they're $ 3, 000.

0:36:05.280 --> 0:36:10.930
<v Speaker 2>But just never caught on. And so another swipe at it, Meta,

0:36:11.310 --> 0:36:15.310
<v Speaker 2>Zuckerberg's outfit, put out their VR glasses yesterday, which they're

0:36:15.350 --> 0:36:19.520
<v Speaker 2>pitching is basically Apple Vision Pro, but much, much lighter

0:36:19.540 --> 0:36:21.560
<v Speaker 2>and smaller, more like just wearing a pair of glasses.

0:36:22.080 --> 0:36:25.860
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's like $ 1, 200 or something, so a

0:36:25.920 --> 0:36:28.110
<v Speaker 2>lot cheaper. I mean, given the fact that the new

0:36:28.230 --> 0:36:32.489
<v Speaker 2>iPhone's $ 2, 000, $ 1, 200 is more reasonable. I don't know if

0:36:32.510 --> 0:36:34.330
<v Speaker 2>this is what's going to push VR over the edge,

0:36:34.370 --> 0:36:38.150
<v Speaker 2>but some of the demonstrations Zuckerberg gave yesterday were pretty cool.

0:36:38.230 --> 0:36:39.670
<v Speaker 2>I can tell you a little bit later about some

0:36:39.690 --> 0:36:41.290
<v Speaker 2>of the stuff he thinks you're going to be able

0:36:41.330 --> 0:36:43.910
<v Speaker 2>to do with VR. Will this ever become a thing?

0:36:43.930 --> 0:36:47.280
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Motion sickness has always been the problem. Right.

0:36:47.640 --> 0:36:51.060
<v Speaker 2>I get bad motion sickness really fast from it. About

0:36:51.100 --> 0:36:52.880
<v Speaker 2>a third of people do. That is one of the

0:36:52.900 --> 0:36:56.170
<v Speaker 2>biggest problems. Got some interesting stuff on the way. If

0:36:56.190 --> 0:36:58.209
<v Speaker 2>you miss a segment, get the podcast Armstrong and Getty

0:36:58.350 --> 0:36:58.860
