1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,240
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty.

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:17,320
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Jack Katie and He Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 3: A group of firefighters in England were able to rescue

5
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 3: a horse from a five foot ditch using a system

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:34,319
Speaker 3: of ropes and pulleys. It's the same technology they use

7
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:37,040
Speaker 3: every morning to get Joy Behar out of her uber.

8
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,959
Speaker 2: Funny because it's true. Funny because it's true.

9
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 4: I like Greg Guphield Felt and my parents watch him

10
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,520
Speaker 4: every single night, But like a lot of his jokes

11
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:55,320
Speaker 4: are just pick somebody people on the right hate, and

12
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 4: then just like I don't know, say something really meant,

13
00:00:58,240 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 4: call him fat or ugly.

14
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:03,240
Speaker 2: Yes, that seems to be a recurring theme.

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 4: Pick somebody they hate on the right and call them fat,

16
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 4: ugly or stupid. Then we laugh and we move on

17
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 4: to the next victim. How many days in a row?

18
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 4: It's been four now, is that right? How many days

19
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,680
Speaker 4: in a row? Will the Pope dying be the lead

20
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 4: story on the evening newscasts?

21
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 2: I wonder?

22
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:26,680
Speaker 4: It's extraordinary to me. But more on that coming up

23
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 4: in a little bit. I want to talk about that. Oh,

24
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,360
Speaker 4: I just came across the term. This is this might

25
00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 4: be the most important thing you learned today. Health Span

26
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,119
Speaker 4: is going to be a term you hear a lot

27
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 4: instead of life span, instead of life span all the time.

28
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 4: The average lifespan is a male men live to be

29
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,000
Speaker 4: eighty two, women live to be blah blah blah. Health

30
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 4: span like the span of your life where you're like

31
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 4: able to do stuff and enjoy your life. Who cares

32
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,800
Speaker 4: if you live another five years of lane in bed

33
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 4: and pain. What's the period of time I get to

34
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: where I'm like actually enjoying life health span?

35
00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 1: Right?

36
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,000
Speaker 2: Well, I care, But I see your point. That's not

37
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: what we're shooting for.

38
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 4: Right right, And I think it's a good idea to

39
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 4: change our focus on that.

40
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 2: I've said this many times.

41
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 4: My doctor said to me actually sometime last year, he said,

42
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:15,520
Speaker 4: sometimes I wonder what's the goal here, because there's just

43
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 4: a lot of extending life in pain and misery and

44
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 4: can't do anything. Yes, health span, that's what we need

45
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 4: to work on it.

46
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I you know this is a heavy and complicated topic,

47
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: but yeah, the stringing along at any expense and pain

48
00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: and whatever treatment is available and just it seems not right.

49
00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:45,960
Speaker 2: It does not seem to fit with the reality of

50
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: being a biological being. It just it seems like an

51
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 2: experiment as opposed to automatically a good idea. We're gonna

52
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,680
Speaker 2: use machines and drugs and procedures to keep this body

53
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 2: functioning at a minimal level so we can say it's alive.

54
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 2: Let's see what happens. Meanwhile, I A is the owner

55
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 2: of the body or thinking, I don't want to do

56
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,080
Speaker 2: that experiment. No, I'm not.

57
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 4: It's easy to saying that we don't last forever. I

58
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 4: don't know what it feels like to be ninety and

59
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 4: laying in bed, and I know I'm never gonna do

60
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 4: a lot of different.

61
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: Stuff, right a matter of degree of course, sure, and

62
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 2: various by the individual. On a much lighter note, because

63
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,800
Speaker 2: everything's a lighter note, Michaels, Do we have any transitions

64
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 2: before the transition life and death? Little more life and

65
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: death before the fun stuff? Folks. I think about this

66
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 2: a lot, because I should read more about it. William F.

67
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: Buckley, who I'm a big admirer of, guy who started

68
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 4: a National review and writer commentator.

69
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,080
Speaker 2: The father of modern conservatism.

70
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely more or less, he reached a point where

71
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:55,880
Speaker 4: he just flat out he said in and you can

72
00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 4: watch an interview on YouTube me He's sitting there in

73
00:03:58,080 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 4: a suit, and he said, no, I'm ready to be done.

74
00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 4: I'm ready to exit this world. I just none of

75
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 4: the things I enjoy in life can I do anymore?

76
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 4: Is like really into sailing and exercise and all these

77
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 4: different things. And I'm just I'm just ready to be done.

78
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 4: And I thought, that's really interesting. How come more people

79
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 4: don't come to that conclusion?

80
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: Or do they just lack the haft of a William F.

81
00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: Buckley and the support of family members to respect their wishes?

82
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: In some cases, you know, the whole everybody wants to

83
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:30,400
Speaker 2: die at home, and nobody does because the nurses and

84
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: doctor say, oh no, no, no, no, you can't check out? Now,

85
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 2: what the hell I can't? But if I'm not dying

86
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:38,719
Speaker 2: of something, what do I just tell my kids? Hey,

87
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,920
Speaker 2: sneak up behind me. At some point, I mean, what

88
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,559
Speaker 2: do you I don't understand how you exit? You wander

89
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,720
Speaker 2: off like an old elephant into the wilderness or the

90
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 2: outskirts of town or wherever old elephants go. Nobody's sure

91
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: you want me to sneak up behind you. I don't know,

92
00:04:53,720 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: all right, Michael Transition music. It really is. It's one

93
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 2: of the best. I feel sufficiently classed death. So entrepreneurs

94
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 2: are flocking to Greenland, still not America yet Jack to

95
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 2: harvest its most abundant resource and hopes that there are

96
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 2: enough people willing to pay a premium for vodka made

97
00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:36,000
Speaker 2: with glacial melt water or a cocktail chilled with ultra

98
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 2: pure Greenland ice. The ice is allegedly cleaner and denser

99
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 2: than almost any ice on Earth because it has been

100
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 2: compressed in a glacier for one hundred thousand years before

101
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,599
Speaker 2: falling into the Fiord. My parents did this.

102
00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,680
Speaker 4: I sent them on a cruise up in Alaska and

103
00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 4: they had drinks on a big boat where it was

104
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 4: this chunks of the glacier where you can count on

105
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,359
Speaker 4: it being, you know, sixty thousand year old pure, the

106
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:08,840
Speaker 4: purest water that exists on Earth. Something it's mammoth pe

107
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,920
Speaker 4: in it. You're not fooling me, right, It's a gimmick

108
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 4: more than anything else. I mean, you can only water

109
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 4: can only get so pure that you wouldn't be able to.

110
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 2: Tell, right, And whether science backs up the sales pitch

111
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: is a subject of debate, as you indicate, as are

112
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: the environmental trade offs of hauling ice chunks from the

113
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 2: Arctic to a nightclub in Dubai. Whatever. Anyway, so this

114
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,839
Speaker 2: guy who's a green plant mammoth p in it, get

115
00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 2: a bartender. So this guy's CEO of this greenland company

116
00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 2: one hundred and thirty million dollar business development fund. In

117
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:49,919
Speaker 2: the past five years, the territory's government has approved thirteen

118
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,760
Speaker 2: licenses to six companies that are currently are planning to

119
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 2: harvest glacial meltwater and ice. And they go into some

120
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 2: of the details, but oh, I'm sorry. Once the container

121
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: arrives in Dubai, as we're discussing, Arctic ice workers carve

122
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 2: the chunks into spheres and place them into triangular gift

123
00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,000
Speaker 2: boxes that come with little a little pair of tongs.

124
00:07:12,400 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 2: The Arctic ice boxes cost one hundred dollars for six cubes,

125
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 2: one hundred dollars for six ice balls. This is like

126
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,160
Speaker 2: steel cut oats.

127
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,640
Speaker 4: And a number of other things that are just there

128
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 4: more marketing than.

129
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 2: Real And then diners at this Dubai restaurant to nightclub

130
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 2: in Dubai's financial district can indulge in the gin infused

131
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 2: desert whisper cocktail that costs about forty eight box chilled

132
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 2: with Greenland ice cubes. Wow, that's a pretty good cocktail

133
00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,520
Speaker 2: price for a high end joint anyway. Yeah, is there

134
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:53,360
Speaker 2: a spot on Earth more decadent than Dubai. Perhaps not,

135
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 2: probably wherever Vladimir Putin is hanging out right now. So

136
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:02,160
Speaker 2: here's a French entrepreneur living in Dubai, twenty eight years old.

137
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:05,200
Speaker 2: He takes his eighteen year old single malt Scotch over

138
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,600
Speaker 2: Greenland ice, Thank you very much? What runs him about

139
00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 2: two hundred and eighteen dollars. He said he likes that

140
00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 2: the ice cubes are free of dirt and bacterial contaminants

141
00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,520
Speaker 2: and melt slowly. Wow. But I couldn't hate that guy enough.

142
00:08:18,040 --> 00:08:20,960
Speaker 2: Oh please, Therefore you're spending two hundred and eighteen bucks

143
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 2: for a drink, trust me, regularized, It doesn't melt that fast.

144
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 2: It's fine, You'll be good.

145
00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 1: Uh.

146
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 2: The storytelling is very important for the customers, says the

147
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,320
Speaker 2: marketing director. When you tell them they contain elements which

148
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 2: are one hundred thousand years old, it's impressive. In other words,

149
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 2: it's all a stupid pretension for rich people to show off. Yeah,

150
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: lots of things are yeah, no kidding, So never mind

151
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 2: the vital rare earths and minerals and stuff on Greenland.

152
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: Everybody's making a fortune on the damn ice selling it

153
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 2: to rich people, which is crazy. Speaking of lifestyle, these

154
00:08:56,520 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 2: stories jack the rise of looks maxing in influencers, toxic

155
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 2: beauty for men hankering for a chisel jawline. A male

156
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 2: TikTok influencer strikes his cheekbones with a hammer, highlighting the wrists,

157
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 2: the rise of looks, masking, maximum usering, mewing. Are you familiar, Yes,

158
00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 2: we've talked about this before. Yeah, my kids mentioned this

159
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 2: couple of years ago. Is big on the playground.

160
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 4: Kids on the playground talking about their jawlines.

161
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 2: That's healthy for a society. Oh my lord, ed what

162
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: ah oh oh fourth grade? Oh ever, ever, this is

163
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: why William F. Buckley embraced death. Seems like I've had

164
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 2: enough anyway. It's a nonline trend of pushing unproven, sometimes

165
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: dangerous techniques to boost sexual appeal. Look looks maxing influencers

166
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 2: part of an online ecosphere dubbed manosphere. I've sarched popularity blah,

167
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 2: blah blah. Capitalizing on the insecurities you have young men

168
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: to boost their physical attractiveness to women. Well, these people

169
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 2: are hooking up or have an interest in it. In

170
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: posts across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, they promote pseudo scientific

171
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 2: methods to achieve everything from poudy lips to chin extensions

172
00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:24,240
Speaker 2: and almond shaped hunter eyes as they're called h okay,

173
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,720
Speaker 2: I kind of are you sure you're hooking up with women?

00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:33,520
Speaker 2: I get what a chin extension could be, or a

175
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:38,400
Speaker 2: variety of things. How do you change your eye shape? Well,

00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 2: that's that's the thing, A lot of stuff at all.

180
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 2: And I have made my lips poudy by pouting a lot.

181
00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 2: And of course, these guys monetize their popularity by endorsing

182
00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 2: a range of consumer products and at money, giving young

183
00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: men terrible, terrible advice. For some case, it doesn't matter anyway.

184
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 2: These influencers advocate taking steroids, undergoing plastic surgery, and even

185
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,079
Speaker 2: leg lengthening procedures to become more attractive.

186

Speaker 2: the roof of the mouth for improving john facial structure.

203
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:16,280

00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 2: where you hit your cheeks with the sharp edge of

205
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 2: a hammer to try to grow out your bones. Yeah,

206
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 2: you can end up with if it works. If it

00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: does anything, you're gonna have a lumpy face. You're not

208
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: gonna look like, you know, Chris Hemsworth, You're gonna look

209
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 2: like you got hit in the head with a hammer

210
00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 2: because you did. You know.

211
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 4: I kind of feel like if you do this, man,

212
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 4: there's a little Darwin thing going on there. Even for

213
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 4: a young person.

214
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,000
Speaker 2: I get, Well, you yourself in the head with a hammer.

215
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:52,280
Speaker 2: I mean, wow, this kids right back. Well, yeah, you're right,

216
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,800
Speaker 2: you're I mean, it's not like you knock yourself unconscious.

217
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 2: But what's tough for us is that in our pre

218
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 2: adolescence and a lessons, we didn't have the most ridiculous, corrosive,

219
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:08,720
Speaker 2: poisonous ideas in the world at the touch of our fingers, right,

220
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 2: I mean, like all the time my son and other

221
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: lunatics who say, yes, what he said is an excellent

222
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 2: idea in a way you would never run into in

223
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 2: real life. I don't know.

224
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 4: Exactly what my high schooler was doing, but he was

225
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,400
Speaker 4: in the backyard the other day with his friends. They

226
00:13:25,440 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 4: were shirtless with big buckets of water doing something that

227
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 4: was a TikTok challenge.

228
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 2: I don't even know what it was. Well, but yeah,

229
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: it happens. At least they weren't hitting themselves in the

230
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 2: face with hammers. Stop the hammering. Final note, then we

231
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 2: really need to take a break. Is that a lot

232
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:45,240
Speaker 2: of the in cell communities, the involuntarily celibate, are turning

233
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 2: into looks maxing because they're thinking, Okay, I can't get laid.

234
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:51,920
Speaker 2: I've been blaming and hating women. What if I hit

235
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: myself in the face with a hammer, then I'll look

236
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 2: like Chris Hemsworth and I'll get lots of chicks. So,

237
00:13:56,760 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 2: because the marketing wasn't working so much on the in

238
00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:05,040
Speaker 2: cell stuff anymore, the money grubbing disgust that this actually

239
00:14:05,320 --> 00:14:09,800
Speaker 2: is at its root is turned into this, wow a

240
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:14,319
Speaker 2: nice girl, treader. Well, fellas, get a job, maintain your erection.

241
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: It'll go great. Trust me, I wouldn't lie to you.

242
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:23,400
Speaker 5: At the Philadelphia Zoo, it's their big debut. For the

Speaker 5: exploring their new habitat.

252
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:56,240
Speaker 2: You know, I could do basic mathematics, but it hadn't

253
00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:58,880
Speaker 2: occurred to me that a ninety seven year old turtle

254
00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:01,400
Speaker 2: came on the scene when Hoover was still doing the

255
00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 2: Charleston Great Scott.

256
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, but does that turtle realize she's gonna be one

257
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 4: hundred and eighteen when they graduated high school?

258

Speaker 4: Did you know John Mulaney's got a new like talk

Speaker 4: crowd and a guest.

264
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,320
Speaker 2: It's like any of those late night talk shows. Anyway.

265
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 4: I saw the beginning of the one from Sunday night,

266
00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: and he said, a tough week this week for the show.

267
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 4: The it's kind of a Saturday Night Live type show,

268
00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 4: he said. The whole premise was, gosh, it's great. The

269
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 4: Pope's still alive, and we had to rewrite the whole script.

270
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:48,560
Speaker 4: But the evening News keeps leading with the Pope's death.

271
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 4: I don't know how many days that's gonna last. Here's

272
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 4: a little from ABC News last night.

273
00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:56,880
Speaker 2: I feel like someone for my family, and I don't

274
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 2: know why, because I really don't know him alone, you

275
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 2: understand it. I don't know. How did you feel when

276
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:06,800
Speaker 2: you in front of him? So blessed, really so blessed.

277
00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 2: I'm so happy, extremely moving, emotional, having stopped.

278
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 4: Much some of the many people standing in line for

279
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 4: hours to walk by the body of the dead Pope.

280
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,360
Speaker 2: I don't get it at all.

281
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 4: I'm pro religion, I'm pro Catholic Church. I'm pro Christianity

282
00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:30,080
Speaker 4: as you can get and all that. I don't understand

283
00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:35,160
Speaker 4: the investing in the pope this. I just, you know, fine,

284
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 4: I'm not I don't know.

285
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 2: I guess I am bereing critical by bringing this up,

286
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:43,680
Speaker 2: but yeah, yeah, well, I don't have time to fully

287
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 2: explain my position on this, So for once in my life,

288
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 2: I'll show a little restraint and not even start. And

289
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 2: then I'm shocked at.

290
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 4: The evening News full of atheists and people that dislike

291
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 4: religion more than they like it.

292
00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 2: Leading with that story every single night. I think they

293
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 2: have a very old audience, so it's more likely to

294
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 2: be a religious and be Catholic.

295
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:07,399
Speaker 4: Richard Ingele of NBC News in Iran before we bombed

296
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:10,280
Speaker 4: the Jesus out of it, talking about the current state

297
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 4: of Iranian culture, which is kind of interesting, among other things.

298
00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 2: On the way stay.

299
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: Here, Armstrong and Getty, I realized that I, for one,

300
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,040
Speaker 1: like geopolitics and Warren Peace more than the average bear,

301
00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,959
Speaker 1: so I can spend a lot of time thinking and

302
00:17:28,000 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 1: talking about it, as opposed to like, I don't know

303
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: a lot of your domestic economic stuff.

304
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 2: I have no.

305
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 4: Interest in it the stuff that matters.

306
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:40,119
Speaker 2: You're a global elitist. Are you in the Bilderberg group?

307
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,360
Speaker 4: I might be, But everybody's going to be talking about

308
00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 4: Iran here soon when we bomb the crap out of it,

309
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:47,479
Speaker 4: which I think is going to happen. I think we

310
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 4: and Israel I didn't read that whole New York Times

311
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 4: story from last weekend till this weekend.

312
00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 2: That was the one where, either on purpose.

313
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:04,680
Speaker 4: Or not, some source inside the Pentagon or the White

314
00:18:04,720 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 4: House let the New York Times know the entire plan

315
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:15,879
Speaker 4: for attacking Iran, which included Israeli commandos going in and

316
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,440
Speaker 4: getting into the tunnels. And I mean, I mean that's

317
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 4: been that was going to be a serious still might

318
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 4: be a serious invasion of a major country in history,

319
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,600
Speaker 4: Israel sending commandos in and you know, fighting in the

320
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 4: tunnels to try to get to the nuclear bomb making

321
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,400
Speaker 4: sights and US bombing and everything I got. Anyway, Iran

322
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,840
Speaker 4: is going to be top of mind when that happens.

323
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 4: That's one of the reasons Richard Engel of NBC News

324
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 4: is there. Here's what he had to say yesterday.

325
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,119
Speaker 6: The Iranians, both on the governmental level and on a

326
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,919
Speaker 6: popular level, are taking these talks extraordinarily seriously. In the US,

327
00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 6: they might not be getting a lot of attention. People

328
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:57,040
Speaker 6: are talking about Ukraine, the economy, the executive orders that

329
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:01,320
Speaker 6: trendsident Trump is giving. But here the only conversation that

330
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,119
Speaker 6: people are having is is focused on on these On

331
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 6: these talks, people hope that they will be successful, People

332
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 6: hope that they will end sanctions, and and a lot

333
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 6: of people are worried that if they fail that there

334
00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 6: could be some sort of military action taken against Iran

335
00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,840
Speaker 6: by Israel, by Israel and the United States together could be.

336
00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,600
Speaker 4: There absolutely will be. And you know, I didn't finish

337
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 4: my thoughts. So that story that was in the New

338
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,240
Speaker 4: York Times, some people are you know, you got to

339
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 4: find the leaker and you know, have them shot for

340
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 4: treason or whatever. It's quite possible that the Trump people

341
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,040
Speaker 4: gave that to the New York Times on purpose to

342
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,800
Speaker 4: let Iran know this is how serious we are. Israel's

343
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 4: putting ground troops into Iran. That's how serious we are

344
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 4: about this whole thing. That's what you're going to be

345
00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 4: dealing with. So you might want to get pretty serious.

346
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 2: Scent a possibility, Yeah, yeah, man, that would be. That

347
00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:56,520
Speaker 2: would be.

348
00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 4: I mean, Israel's been around since with forty nine or whatever,

349
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 4: and there have been a number of major wars that

350
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:07,080
Speaker 4: movies have made. This would be right up there. I

351
00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:09,359
Speaker 4: mean in terms of a big deal. They're putting ground

352
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:16,880
Speaker 4: troops in Iran. Holy crap. Anyway, And once again, isn't

353
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,200
Speaker 4: it nice to live in the United States where we're

354
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 4: ignoring this story.

355
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 2: Because nobody's gonna bomb you today.

356
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 4: In Iran, it's all the talk, as Richard Dingle just said,

357
00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,960
Speaker 4: because there's a chance the most sophisticated planes in the world,

358
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 4: with the most sophisticated bombs on Earth start invading their.

359
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 2: City any day now if it's some of the most

360
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 2: fearsome sum bitches on Earth drop out of the sky

361
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: at night in our ooching about in your cities and

362
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 2: certainly your nuclear facilities. Yeah, we also have the luxury

363
00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,560
Speaker 2: of not being directly threatened by Iran getting the bomb

364
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 2: in a way that Israel are good Old Bud. Absolutely

365
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 2: it a good point. Here's more, Richard Dingle.

366
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 6: Just the fact that I am here is part of

367
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:02,439
Speaker 6: that initiative government is trying to open up. We've been

368
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 6: given quite extraordinary access to government officials. I was at

369
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,359
Speaker 6: the Iranian parliament the other day talking to a ranking

370
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 6: member of their National Security Committee. We've been able to

371
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 6: walk around the streets without any kind of minders or escorts.

372
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 2: A lot is happening here.

373
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 6: There is a lot of change happening inside Iran that

374
00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 6: that doesn't get out.

375
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 4: So they happily welcome Richard Engel into I assume he's

376
00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 4: in Tehran, so he can travel around with no minders

377
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,680
Speaker 4: or anything like that. New they want a very sympathetic

378
00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,480
Speaker 4: face on the Iranian people.

379
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:40,280
Speaker 2: As you're about to hear here, a lot.

380
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 6: Of these stereotypes people have about the Iranian people, they're not.

381
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:48,159
Speaker 2: What you what you you? What you what you see

382
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:50,200
Speaker 2: when you walk around on the streets here.

383
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 6: Uh, there is a sophisticated culture that is very that

384
00:21:55,320 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 6: that very much wants to engage with the world. You

385
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 6: go to a coffee shop in Tehran, and not just

386
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,159
Speaker 6: in the wealthy areas, but anywhere in this city and

387
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 6: in many places, it looks like you could be in

388
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,840
Speaker 6: a coffee shop in New York City or any part

389
00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:13,680
Speaker 6: of Western Europe. The problem is because of the sanctions,

390
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 6: because of the impositions imposed on Iran, they are almost

391
00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 6: cut off from the world.

392
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 2: That's nice, really, that's an interesting way to describe how

393
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 2: we got to the point that they're cut off from

394
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 2: the world. Didn't have anything to do with the Madman

395
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,639
Speaker 2: Mullahs and the Islamic supremacists and the Revolutionary Guard. No,

396
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 2: it was the West that did that.

397
00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 4: Well, right, And hey, Richard Engel, while you know, I

398
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 4: feel bad for the average Iranian citizen who probably doesn't

399
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 4: like the government anymore than I do, oh guaranteed, so

400
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,680
Speaker 4: the fact that they got modern New York style coffee shops.

401
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: We should let them get a nuclear weapon.

402
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 4: I mean, because at the end of the day, it's

403
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,439
Speaker 4: about them getting a nuclear weapon and weather obliterating the.

404
00:22:56,480 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 2: Jews, yes, exactly, and after that the Christians. Yes, but

405
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,440
Speaker 2: they do have nice coffee shops. He makes a good point. No,

406
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 2: it sucks.

407
00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 4: You live in Toronto and you're some nineteen year old

408
00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:08,959
Speaker 4: woman who hates the fact that the government makes you

409
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:12,840
Speaker 4: wear a headscarf, and you'd kill the Mullas with your

410
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:15,879
Speaker 4: bare hands if you had the chance yourself right, it

411
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:17,879
Speaker 4: would suck for you to get caught in a you know,

412
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 4: a bomb.

413
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,960
Speaker 2: I don't know. This is uh. You know, the Mullahs

414
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,159
Speaker 2: are nuts, but they're not stupid. Likewise the Revolutionary Guard.

415
00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 2: It's really interesting to me. I've been unaware of the

416
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 2: whole Wait, we're open, we're western, we have coffee shops,

417
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 2: Dick Engel. You walk around anywhere you want, ask anybody

418
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,359
Speaker 2: you want anything. What are you talking about? A giant

419
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 2: attack with bombs and commandos. Please have a cup of

420
00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 2: our excellent coffee. They are extremely weak. Y'all have probably

421
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,720
Speaker 2: heard this before. I'm not trying to, you know, repeat

422
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,720
Speaker 2: what you've heard or insult your intelligence. But Israel having

423
00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 2: taken out Iran's air defenses fairly recently and expose them

424
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:05,639
Speaker 2: even at that moment as being much much weaker than

425
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 2: anybody thought. And at this point they are an infant

426
00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:12,760
Speaker 2: in a bassinette in terms of their self defense capabilities,

427
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:18,840
Speaker 2: certainly against more sophisticated attacks. So apparently they're going full

428
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 2: on let's be buddies. I've heard it on the right

429
00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,199
Speaker 2: that no Trump has trying to sign us up for

430
00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:30,359
Speaker 2: like Obama's Ronnie An Agreement two point zero. But I

431
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,040
Speaker 2: you know, I don't worship Trump as a god, but

432
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,000
Speaker 2: I don't think he's that bad a deal maker either.

433
00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: He's got to understand how weak they are and what

434
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:43,040
Speaker 2: an opportune moment this is to strike, whether you know, physically,

435
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,080
Speaker 2: kinetically strike or strike is in. All right, here's the

436
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:47,440
Speaker 2: deal you're being offered.

437
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,280
Speaker 4: Those war plans, and these were war plans that were

438
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 4: put out in the New York Times weekend before last.

439
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 4: It included which kinds of planes are going to launch

440
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 4: from which base, at which moment, and in which order.

441
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 4: I mean, it was quite detailed.

442
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 2: Mm hmm. Yeah, that's what the planners do.

443
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 4: But well, I understand why the planners have it, but

444
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 4: who gave that to the New York Times for what reason?

445
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:15,919
Speaker 4: M M, somebody who doesn't want this attack to happen.

446
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,800
Speaker 4: I mean your theory better, Well, I hope it's I

447
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:25,920
Speaker 4: hope it's my original theory that it's it's the Trump

448
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 4: administration letting rand know, Hey, this is how serious we are.

449
00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 4: This is these are the details of the plans we've

450
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 4: got ready to go, and we do. If it's somebody

451
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:35,640
Speaker 4: who released that stuff to try to stop it, You're

452
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,240
Speaker 4: you're telling them exactly which planes where take off? When

453
00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 4: I mean that is treason US.

454
00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 2: I would agree those were Help me understand those were

455
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:49,920
Speaker 2: US plans, Israeli plans or a combination combination? Yeah, yeah, okay, yeah,

456
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:54,640
Speaker 2: that is treason US. Although the start actually in the field,

457
00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 2: but it's still like them whisked off to a secret

458
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 2: prison for a while. Is Dick Cheneys still in business?

459
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,879
Speaker 4: I mean the fact that that Iran can now plan

460
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:09,440
Speaker 4: for Israeli commandos, right, there's nothing they can do about

461
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 4: the air attacks as we're discussing seconds ago.

462
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 2: But yeah, the uh yeah, planning for the specifics of

463
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 2: the attack. Yeah, that's that's a very bad leak on

464
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,159
Speaker 2: the other side of if it was an actual like

465
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 2: hostile lea the other side of it for SMEA.

466
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:28,879
Speaker 4: And I don't know who leaked this to Tucker, but

467
00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 4: Tucker Carlson claims he's got the Pentagon's own numbers on uh,

468
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:41,200
Speaker 4: what the reaction could be in it and included thousands

469
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,480
Speaker 4: dead in attacks on our military basis around the Middle

470
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,320
Speaker 4: East and that sort of thing.

471
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 2: I mean, this is I keep saying this. I don't.

472
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,919
Speaker 2: I don't, I don't.

473
00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,680
Speaker 4: I don't feel like people feel this way. This would

474
00:26:56,720 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 4: be the biggest thing we've done militarily sent shock in

475
00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 4: aw March two thousand and three when we attacked Iraq

476
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:06,639
Speaker 4: with a full army, and it might not necessarily go

477
00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 4: as smoothly either. U.

478
00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:13,560
Speaker 2: No, No, well, yeah, having lived through a number of

479
00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:18,640
Speaker 2: episodes from my childhood watching Vietnam through Iraq and Afghanistan, yeah,

480
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 2: nothing goes as planned. On the other hand, the idea

481
00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 2: that thousands of our troops would die, I'm not buying that.

482
00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 4: No, I'm guessing that the it's a report that the

483
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 4: Pentagon puts together with like the worst case scenario.

484
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:38,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, worst case sinaratistics. Yeah, yeah, boy, the charm offensive

485
00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:43,639
Speaker 2: is interesting. I wonder what's next with this. This is

486
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 2: easily a big enough topic that it ought to be

487
00:27:46,000 --> 00:27:51,200
Speaker 2: dominating the national discussion. But it's one of like eleven, right.

488
00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:52,119
Speaker 2: I was just funny.

489
00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,919
Speaker 4: I was just reading Mark Halpern's newsletter for today, just

490
00:27:55,040 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 4: the number of giant stories and which directions they could go, uh,

491
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 4: this one being.

492
00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 2: One of them. But the tariff thing, and I've solved it.

493
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:08,639
Speaker 2: You permit Iran to have the bomb, but you put

494
00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:13,199
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty five percent tariff on it, so

495
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 2: they can't afford to send it to US bomb. If

496
00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,240
Speaker 2: there's no DEI will give them the funding. I don't know.

497
00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:22,639
Speaker 2: It's all very complicated. We'll finish strong next.

498
00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:31,119
Speaker 4: I just saw this in the Times. The Department of

499
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:36,960
Speaker 4: Homeland Security accidentally sent out notices that said it's time

500
00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 4: for you to leave to US citizens, which would have.

501
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 2: Been funny if I got that alert on my phone.

502
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:46,640
Speaker 2: This is the federal government. It's time for you to leave.

503
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:51,280
Speaker 2: You know what what? Okay, where am I going.

504
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 6: For?

505
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 1: Not?

506
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:57,600
Speaker 2: You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here, folks.

507
00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 2: It's time for you to leave. I've been told that before,

508
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:06,440
Speaker 2: as you all know. So, oh, I'm ready to self

509
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:10,600
Speaker 2: deport just to just name the time. Oh you know

510
00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:13,840
Speaker 2: what I didn't get to today. We're actually talking about

511
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 2: colleges and college funding and the Trump administration wrestling with Harvard. Who. Oh,

512
00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:21,840
Speaker 2: by the way, I've forgotten. You know that Matt taye

513
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,360
Speaker 2: ebpiece we were talking about to yesterday that was so well written.

514
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 2: I hadn't gotten to the end because it was pretty long.

515
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: But he points out in one part that people have

516
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,760
Speaker 2: this idea of Harvard as being, you know, just packed

517
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 2: with these super geniuses, the best of the best. He said, yeah,

518
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 2: there are some real geniuses there. There are also lots

519
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: and lots of morons, rich morons and legacy morons and whatever.

520
00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:48,920
Speaker 1: Did go to Harvard?

521
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:51,680
Speaker 2: No, no, he did not.

522
00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 4: We asked somebody about that once and they told us that,

523
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:58,280
Speaker 4: and I remember it was was it Lanhi Chen he

524
00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:01,080
Speaker 4: went to Harvard. It might have been II should put

525
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:01,720
Speaker 4: words in his mouth.

526
00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 2: He might not like that.

527
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 4: But somebody we know who went to Harvard said, yeah,

528
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:09,080
Speaker 4: you'd be surprised. You're in classes with lots of people

529
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:09,720
Speaker 4: that are just.

530
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 2: Very very average. Yeah, yeah, we have heard that, So

531
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:15,960
Speaker 2: here's the end of what he wrote. Were you about

532
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 2: to jump into something I don't mean no hijack? Yeah,

533
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 2: I was not because we had a loose plan. But

534
00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,000
Speaker 2: for decades, the US has been transforming into a public

535
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:29,440
Speaker 2: private blob of intertwined bureaucratic unaccountability. The phenomenon is observable

536
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 2: in every direction, from finance sector insulated by an implied bailout,

537
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:37,720
Speaker 2: to subsidized mass dysfunction and trade, healthcare, national security, and

538
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 2: other sectors. The problem has been described by Corbett lobbyists

539
00:30:41,360 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 2: fed up with big government, and by left leaning writers

540
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,680
Speaker 2: like Chris Hedges, whose Death of the Liberal Class chronicled

541
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 2: the dangers of liberalizing NGOs. That's non governmental organizations losing

542
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,600
Speaker 2: independence as they're swallowed into the larger hole. Even democratic

543
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: speech writers have conceded of late that it's become difficult

544
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 2: to defe the Gordian knot that American society has become.

545
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 2: Here's this conclusion about Harvard. Harvard is the ultimate example

546
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:10,400
Speaker 2: of an institution that's become more bureaucracy than university, where

547
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 2: subsidies have reduced once mighty brains to a mush of

548
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 2: arrogant entitlement. It could use some time in the wilderness.

549
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 2: Other schools like Columbia could too if they find they

550
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 2: can still thrive in the free market as censorious, imbecilic monocultures.

551
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,120
Speaker 2: Good for them. If not, maybe they'll rediscover the virtue

552
00:31:28,120 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: as of academic inquiry. Trying to force that epiphany by

553
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 2: presidential Fatwaw seems like a bad idea. Could we be

554
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:38,320
Speaker 2: lucky enough to see academia walk the plank voluntarily? Wow?

555
00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 2: I was listening to asorious imbecilic monocultures. That's what they are.

556
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: I'm always saying that.

557
00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:47,680
Speaker 4: I was listened to a podcast the other day and

558
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,600
Speaker 4: they're having the conversation of would you want your kid

559
00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 4: to go to Harvard? And almost everybody was a yes.

560
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:55,720
Speaker 4: But the reason for a the yes was the networking,

561
00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:56,760
Speaker 4: the contacts you make.

562
00:31:57,160 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 2: None of it was the education. I'm in the along

563
00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 2: line network are huge. Yeah.

564
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 4: If mostly you want your kid to go to an

565
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 4: Ivy League school because of the kind of people you

566
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,520
Speaker 4: hang around, Eh, that's a little to England for me.

567
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:14,320
Speaker 4: I'm reading a lot about rereading stuff about the spy

568
00:32:14,440 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 4: network and all that sort of stuff in England, But

569
00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 4: all of that was based on the fact that they

570
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 4: have such a class system in England.

571
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 2: We don't want that in the United States. Yeah, I know.

572
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 2: I've got to admit if I see somebody who's a

573
00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:34,000
Speaker 2: fellow Illinois grad, I have this small bit of affection

574
00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 2: for them, which is doesn't make any sense whatsoever. We

575
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,040
Speaker 2: had some common experiences, but you body don't.

576
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:42,880
Speaker 4: I don't know, but I don't think you probably have

577
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:45,680
Speaker 4: any of the I think a lot of the Harvard people,

578
00:32:45,760 --> 00:32:49,160
Speaker 4: it's not just what you described. It's a you're part

579
00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 4: of us, the better people, the higher class of this

580
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 4: and that.

581
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:57,240
Speaker 2: That should run the world. Yes, and we will look

582
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,320
Speaker 2: out for each other, whether they you know that that's

583
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 2: like one hundred percent of why they do it or

584
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 2: twenty percent of it. There's absolutely that elitists were better

585
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,880
Speaker 2: than everybody thing. But they're also because they're so full

586
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 2: of themselves. They see a fellow Harvard grad or whatever,

587
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 2: they want to hire them and help them and do

588
00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 2: something for them, to reafform that tribal affiliation. My point

589
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:25,280
Speaker 2: is my tribal affiliation is it exists, but it's weak.

590
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,239
Speaker 2: I mean, I understand how silly is it it is,

591
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 2: even as I feel it, But if you're like steeped

592
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 2: in the whole Harvard Crimson thing, you've got a super

593
00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:40,560
Speaker 2: powerful tribal affiliation impulse. And that's good if you're a

594
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 2: kid trying to get a first gig. For instance, Well,

595
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,360
Speaker 2: there's Jack Gan, there's Joke Band. It's kind of La Boy,

596
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:53,720
Speaker 2: Kad Green and Michael Land Stabby the klines. They're like dad,

597
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,080
Speaker 2: they're not a radio so there they're final class people.

598
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,400
Speaker 4: They have to go, Yeah, you got a puppy in

599
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 4: your van? I know, Oh, oh my god, frightening. Here's

600
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 4: your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

601
00:34:05,280 --> 00:34:07,120
Speaker 2: Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew.

602
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 2: To wrap up the day. There is our technical director,

603

00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,320
Speaker 2: I think McDonald's has a new sandwich and so maybe

00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:23,279
Speaker 2: you know you might be getting that you fuck wow,

00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,360

609
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:32,440
Speaker 7: very busy day ahead of me today. I was just

610
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:35,600
Speaker 7: notified that I owe Bridge toll and this notification came

611
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,799
Speaker 7: in from a hot mail email address, so I have

612
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:40,440
Speaker 7: to handle that.

613
00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:45,759
Speaker 2: State of Oregon's using hotmail now or whatever. Jack a

614
00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:46,799
Speaker 2: final thought for us.

615
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,359
Speaker 4: For some reason, I was thrown by Michael's birthday to

616
00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 4: his wife.

617
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,720
Speaker 2: She might be listening while you're thinking speaking of food.

618
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:57,960
