Uh, we're toiling under the title 0:00:53.960 --> 0:00:56.880 of the show. Get the flock out of here. Hey, 0:00:57.120 --> 0:00:59.920 that's a good one, all right if you prefer We're 0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:01.400 going to squeeze Iran. 0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:07.000 Will we enjoyed the juice? You really happy with both 0:01:07.040 --> 0:01:10.600 my titles this morning? You really pleased with myself? 0:01:11.959 --> 0:01:15.360 Ah, I've been one of the problems with doing this 0:01:15.760 --> 0:01:19.800 job for this many years is most of the things 0:01:19.840 --> 0:01:22.920 I say, I've said ten to fifty times. 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:25.640 But I'm that and hating humanity. 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:29.080 But here's one of the things I've said many, many 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:31.480 times over the years. When they launched a new round 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:38.880 of sanctions against Iran or Iraq or North Korea back 0:01:38.880 --> 0:01:40.320 in the day when they're trying to stop them to 0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:42.320 get a nuclear weapon, which obviously didn't work. 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:45.040 But all these different things is if you got these, 0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:49.440 why didn't you do this earlier? We're at war or. 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.760 This is a huge crisis and you said you're gonna 0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:56.680 punish him. What so you're holding back on the real sanctions. 0:01:57.280 --> 0:02:01.280 We're seven months into the war. Why were you holding 0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:02.760 back on some of these sanctions? 0:02:03.120 --> 0:02:06.800 I'll tell you why. And this does not mean your 0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:08.359 point isn't a valid one. 0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.880 Every sanction bruises somebody other than the person you're sanctioning, 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.400 and and the stricter and harsher of the sanctions, the 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:19.840 more bruising. There are of people who say, as I 0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:22.040 often do, Hey why did I come in for a kick? 0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:23.880 And all of a sudden I get that. 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:27.840 But it wasn't a we're really at a point of 0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:32.760 difficulty here earlier than this seems like we were, I 0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.480 hear you anyway, So yeah, new round of sanctions, which 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:39.000 do sound like a pretty big deal on all kinds 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:41.519 of good Lord, we'll have to play that clip of 0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:45.400 Scott Besson laying it out. This is the strongest package 0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:49.600 package of sanctions, on the biggest and strongest package of 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:54.040 sanctions that have ever been unleashed economic sanctions, and uh, 0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.040 it'll be and it'll be on every country that does 0:02:57.120 --> 0:03:01.640 business with Iran. They don't come around China, India, some 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:03.679 of our friends. That sort of stuff. You got to 0:03:03.680 --> 0:03:06.920 stop doing business. That's the problem that always happens. My 0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:09.680 favorite example is always a been when we had strong 0:03:09.800 --> 0:03:11.760 sanctions on Iraq and we ended up going to war 0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:13.120 with them and we had what do we have there 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.480 at one point one hundred thousand troops one hundred and 0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:19.200 fifty thousand troops. France was still doing business with them 0:03:19.240 --> 0:03:22.040 behind our back to get around the sanctions because well, 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:23.560 well you know, you gotta make money. 0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:26.440 Well you remember the Secretary General and his boy of 0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:29.280 the UN, the UN Secretary General and his son were 0:03:29.520 --> 0:03:33.880 doing big business and making tons of money as those 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:38.440 sanctions were in effects as approved by the UN. So yeah, 0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:43.080 it's everybody cheats, everybody lies, everybody pursues their own self interest. 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:47.560 I've got a tale of a near tragedy avoided. Oh no, 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:50.720 this morning. So I run into work every single day. 0:03:50.760 --> 0:03:52.440 As I've mentioned many times, I've done been doing this 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:54.680 since I was nineteen years old, my entire radio career 0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:56.520 working morning radio for some reason. I do it to 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.440 get a heart pumping on everything like that, get jazzed 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:02.080 up for the show. At the point that I can 0:04:02.120 --> 0:04:04.040 no longer run in, I guess I'll have to call 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.680 it a day. But I have not exceeded a saunter 0:04:06.800 --> 0:04:13.600 since nineteen eighty eight. I was running today. I'm wearing 0:04:13.880 --> 0:04:17.000 red Wing work boots eight seventy five classic model Steve 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:18.000 McQueen everyone else. 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:19.160 Very cool, very cool boot. 0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.720 But anyway, I'm running in and I trip a little 0:04:22.760 --> 0:04:25.360 on a crack and a sidewalk and stumble a little bit, 0:04:26.320 --> 0:04:29.919 catch myself, but realize in a little planter thing on 0:04:29.960 --> 0:04:33.200 the ground level where they've got you know, it's just 0:04:33.240 --> 0:04:35.640 like there's a tile of cement missing and there's a 0:04:35.680 --> 0:04:39.320 tree coming out of it, like they do in urban parks. 0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:43.680 But the sprinkler thing is on a metal rod, a 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:48.239 tiny midtal rod. It's like a drinking straw size, only 0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:51.040 it's a metal rod sticking up out of the ground. 0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:53.280 And I stumbled, and I'm looking right at that thing, 0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.200 and I thought, if I had gone down, that thing 0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:58.680 would have been paled me clear through my torso it's 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:01.799 my final destination. It would have stuck clear out my back. 0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:05.760 I mean, is long enough and pointy enough, And I 0:05:05.880 --> 0:05:09.159 just wonder, well, one that would have been the sort 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:10.839 of story that makes national news. 0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:13.440 Sure, yeah, and I don't know if it was that. 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.000 A week and a half, two weeks ago, we had 0:05:15.000 --> 0:05:17.880 a couple of impaling stories in a row. In our 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.559 Impaling Story of the Week, they come in threes, people 0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:22.760 being impaled. That would have been a lame way to 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:23.640 go out, Jack. 0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:23.839 I know. 0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.640 Lame way to die is whoever's next showing up to 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:30.080 work and sees me on the ground with that sticking 0:05:30.160 --> 0:05:31.200 up my back. 0:05:31.240 --> 0:05:34.560 Thinks, well, that's not good. I should call someone. I suppose. 0:05:35.720 --> 0:05:39.360 I have a horrifying story of that sort, but I'm 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:43.000 going to withhold it, showing restraint for once in my life. 0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:45.400 No, no joke. That could have happened if I if I'd. 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:48.280 Have gone down, very easily could have impaled me. It's 0:05:48.560 --> 0:05:51.000 is a tiny enough spike it would easily just go 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:53.960 right through me. And it reminded me of this is 0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:58.440 a horrifying story of for a cup of coffee. Maybe 0:05:58.440 --> 0:06:00.040 they're still popular. I don't see them around like I 0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:04.160 used to, uh for environmental reasons and because the humble 0:06:04.240 --> 0:06:07.240 Sea turtle was dying by the millions because of straws, 0:06:07.279 --> 0:06:10.400 which turned out to be bogus. People were trying to 0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:15.000 do away with plastic straws, so one solution in California 0:06:15.040 --> 0:06:17.800 was paper straws, which are useless. Another thing was they 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:21.320 started selling those like aluminum straws that you would wash 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:24.240 and reuse, so you wouldn't have a placed anyway. Remember 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.120 the story is in the New York Post, of course, 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:29.000 of a woman who had one of those aluminum straws, 0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:31.760 and she stumbled and went down through her eye socket 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:35.719 and out her head and killed her. Oh Lord, impaled 0:06:35.720 --> 0:06:41.640 clear through her head. Wow, you have to assume God 0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:46.040 didn't want you, right, how'd your sister die? Don't worry 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:47.919 about it. I'm not gonna tell you. 0:06:48.400 --> 0:06:50.279 I don't know. Well now I really want to know. 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.960 You don't. No, I don't. I'm not gonna tell you. 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:55.960 It's just this makes me want to know more. Trust me. 0:06:56.560 --> 0:07:02.520 Sorry. Okay, let's start the show officially.

Nay, that's what it sounded like. 0:07:49.480 --> 0:07:52.480 Apparently I've never vandalized anything in my life, but you 0:07:52.560 --> 0:07:54.040 might be able to get me on board with that. 0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:59.440 Depends. That's controversial. I know it is. I don't like that. 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:00.520 Vote for that? 0:08:00.560 --> 0:08:02.840 Who nobody voted for that.

Her opponent, 0:09:07.800 --> 0:09:11.160 Ralph Norman, I don't know his age, I don't know 0:09:11.160 --> 0:09:14.560 his act at all. Not a staunch conservative, great conservative record. 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:20.160 He's seventy three running for a six year term. Her 0:09:20.280 --> 0:09:23.560 answer in the debate the other day is disqualifying. Yes, 0:09:24.240 --> 0:09:25.920 we'll play that later if you don't know it.

People 0:10:04.280 --> 0:10:10.840 say crazy things out loud on video, and then there 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:15.080 are those of you out there who compile them various 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:19.480 political bents or reaction to news stories or whatever that 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.480 are just amazing, and we've got a lot of those today. 0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:24.040 Yeah. 0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.959 Yeah, you're always concerned about nutpicking. I think in a 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:29.559 lot of cases the nuttiness is in the philosophy and 0:10:29.600 --> 0:10:35.360 the ideas, and they are widely held.

CBS Iran looks to 0:10:57.280 --> 0:11:01.000 boost regional trade ties as United States turn from bombs 0:11:01.000 --> 0:11:06.120 to economic warfare. CNBC oil prices head for a second 0:11:06.320 --> 0:11:08.880 weekly rise as the United States abouts to turn up 0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:13.600 the economic pressure on Iran, and CNN Iran condemns Trump's 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:17.160 threat of quote economic d Day against Tehran. 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:24.240 Condemns Sure, Okay, they have to go ahead. They have 0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.960 to be worried about this Iran. They have to think old. 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:32.320 Yeah, yeah, they've already got rampant inflation, unemployment, growing discontent 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:34.080 in the streets. But I tell you one thing about 0:11:34.559 --> 0:11:38.679 rains of terror. They work you machine gun forty fifty 0:11:38.720 --> 0:11:41.719 thousand people, you pull them out of hospital beds and 0:11:41.760 --> 0:11:44.800 torture them to death. Everybody hears about it. Everybody thinks, yeah, 0:11:44.920 --> 0:11:46.160 you protest. 0:11:48.160 --> 0:11:48.959 New York Times. 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:54.079 Canada is considering United States trade deal as deadline mirrors. 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:59.320 Yeah, we didn't even talk about the Trump threat fifty 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:04.280 on Canadian goods. And then he backed off at five 0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:07.160 till midnight. The other night, he was up late, five 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.959 minutes to midnight. The tariff is off.

We're going to 0:22:03.880 --> 0:22:07.760 get to a little bit later. It's become quite a 0:22:07.800 --> 0:22:12.480 thing that they no longer use the SAT scores to 0:22:13.000 --> 0:22:16.920 qualify people to get into universities because they were racist 0:22:17.119 --> 0:22:20.600 or whatever they decided, and so they did away with it, 0:22:20.600 --> 0:22:24.800 and now we have endless universities, including a good one 0:22:24.840 --> 0:22:27.640 from Berkeley just the other day, where this professor had 0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:29.760 the guts to come out and say, look, we got 0:22:29.800 --> 0:22:32.119 to do something. I'm getting all these students they can't 0:22:32.119 --> 0:22:34.720 do basic math.

Anyway, Gavin 0:22:39.880 --> 0:22:42.200 Newsom asked about it yesterday, and we'll play the clip 0:22:42.200 --> 0:22:44.439 a little bit later where he hums and haws it. 0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:47.679 Look, it's an issue of fairness. Show me the data. 0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:49.480 I mean, once I see the data, I'll make a 0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:53.280 decision and just won't take a stand on that. 0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:56.439 What a weird time to be alive. 0:22:57.160 --> 0:22:59.320
