WEBVTT - Pleasure Is Pleasurable 0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:14.360 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:14.400 --> 0:00:19.079 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and. 0:00:19.160 --> 0:00:35.280 Jettie and he armsrong Edy Why from Studio C see Senior. 0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:37.600 How exciting it is to be in a brand new monk, 0:00:37.920 --> 0:00:41.400 deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and getting communications compounded. 0:00:41.479 --> 0:00:45.040 Today we are under the tutelage of our general manager ze. 0:00:45.159 --> 0:00:50.320 I don't know baseball playoffs. I took in a couple 0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:52.360 of games yesterday. Parts of games yesterday. 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:55.040 I really enjoying that. And it's nice to do something 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:58.840 like that. Yeah, oh, we take. 0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:01.680 It in the baseball It's just the thing that's just 0:01:02.640 --> 0:01:06.720 the pleasurable as opposed to important. Pleasure is pleasurable. 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:08.880 And I'll tell you this, it's great if you're if 0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:11.600 your big horse pitcher is doing well, you leave. 0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:13.880 Him in, You leave him in. I don't like the 0:01:13.920 --> 0:01:19.800 modern way blah blah blah, saber metrics problem. I don't like. Yeah, 0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:19.959 I know. 0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:22.920 I was listening to Pete Hegsith on the way in 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:25.000 more of him some stuff that I hadn't heard yet. 0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:27.639 We'll have to play today. From his big speech yesterday, 0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.119 he gave to the generals where he said no more 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:30.120 fat generals. 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:35.039 US. That was certainly part of the message. Yeah, there's 0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:37.920 absolutely part of that, no more fat generals. I don't 0:01:37.920 --> 0:01:40.280 want to see any more fat generals and admirals walk 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:43.080 in the halls of the Pentagon. Yeah. Oh, I'm telling 0:01:43.120 --> 0:01:45.039 you how many guts are going to be sucked in today? 0:01:45.080 --> 0:01:46.720 As they strolled all well, there had to be a 0:01:46.720 --> 0:01:49.280 few guys who think, oh, Betty's talking about me. 0:01:49.800 --> 0:01:52.280 Oh my god, I got an office on those same FLOORA. 0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:55.800 But he's talking about me. But the new grooming standards 0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:57.840 and fitness standards, I'm wondering if we shouldn't bring them 0:01:57.880 --> 0:02:00.920 to the Armstrong and Getty show ship. He's calling it. 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:05.240 He says, it's the broken windows policy applied to the Pentagon. 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:10.800 So what Pete said, Yeah, I gotta start shaving, do 0:02:10.919 --> 0:02:16.680 some pushups, Michael, do something about those eyebrows. They're contributed 0:02:16.760 --> 0:02:18.520 to a complete lack of discipline. 0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:20.400 I'll work on them. I don't know. 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.800 It looked like they could attack somebody. This is the 0:02:23.840 --> 0:02:27.440 War Department. But one thing I heard mentioned today. But 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:29.000 I need to do a little research to figure out 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:33.280 what it is that he wants to uh bring back 0:02:33.360 --> 0:02:36.799 the policy that drill instructors can put their hands on recruits. 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.480 Apparently they had. I knew that they had outlawed at partially. 0:02:40.520 --> 0:02:42.280 I know this because of my dad and my brother, 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.920 so my it must have. Maybe it's when they outlawed 0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.200 drill sergeants being able to touch recruits at all. My 0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.079 brother was talking about when he went through basic training, 0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:53.320 which would have been in the eighties, they would they 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:57.600 would occasionally smack you, like on the rifle range. If 0:02:57.639 --> 0:02:59.239 your head was too up, they come by smack you 0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.320 on that. Might need to keep your head down. But 0:03:02.520 --> 0:03:04.800 my dad when he went through the well probably. 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:08.280 Worth pointing out so it doesn't get blown off in combat. 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:13.040 And your dad, right, are horribly crippled. Right, yes, but 0:03:13.120 --> 0:03:16.239 my dad said that when he went through basic training 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:22.840 they could punch you. That was part of the deal, right. Wow. 0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:25.040 I don't know if that's necessary or not. Although you 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.280 do want tough people and yet yeah, I don't know. 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:29.119 Do you want people that the first time they've ever 0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.000 been punched or had any physical adversity when they're actually 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:32.640 in a battle. 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.640 I don't know. I don't know. I have no experience 0:03:35.800 --> 0:03:38.680 real life experience in this area. I would say if 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.840 you pulled warriors over the last five thousand years and 0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:46.400 asked him that series of questions, the answer would not 0:03:46.560 --> 0:03:50.560 be well, woke, okay. It would probably not be the 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:55.160 kind and gentle Barney the dinosaur style of you know, 0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:59.160 dealing with human beings that is in vogue these days, right, 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:03.480 because we're not taught talking about coaches hitting players well, 0:04:03.480 --> 0:04:06.360 how to toughening up your players for a sport, or 0:04:06.520 --> 0:04:08.160 you know. I don't know that gets pretty you wish, 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.400 but people are actually going to head into battle and 0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.200 defend themselves in the country and the people around them. 0:04:14.520 --> 0:04:16.920 I don't know. That's a tough one. 0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:22.240 But all the coverage I've heard, outside of some Fox 0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:24.920 commentators and you know, people like us, has all been 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.960 oh boy, I don't know about this. I was even 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.440 listening to a news nation today and they presented some 0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.760 of Pete's clips and he's going to He's going to 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:40.120 hold people to one standard for physical fitness, even if 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:43.120 that means fewer women in combat. Jim, how do we 0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:43.800 feel about that? 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:48.040 If you think that is controversial, I don't even know 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:51.920 how to talk to you right right, what that illustrates 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:56.320 is the unbelievable extent to which people will repeat what 0:04:56.400 --> 0:05:00.760 they think they're supposed to say and come to believe it. 0:05:00.000 --> 0:05:05.000 It's absolutely I hate to use the term no brainer. 0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:07.880 It makes it sound like I have no brain, but 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.719 it is a no brainer that you don't give somebody 0:05:10.760 --> 0:05:15.480 a break in terms of physical fitness for combat based 0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:20.160 on anything. What else? Maybe they it's a congenital condition 0:05:20.279 --> 0:05:22.520 he has that one of his arms doesn't work very well. 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:25.080 It's not his faults, so we're going to lower a stand. No, 0:05:25.120 --> 0:05:29.640 it's about keeping people alive. It's not a jobs program 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.160 or the country alive. Well right, yeah, it's a good point. 0:05:32.920 --> 0:05:35.880 But the fact that anybody can present that is controversial 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:38.359 to me. I don't even know where I would start 0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.320 having a conversation with you. I feel like there'd be 0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:42.880 no point. We're so far apart, there's no point in 0:05:42.960 --> 0:05:47.600 even trying to because if it isn't self evident that 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:49.120 that's a good idea, well then we're just. 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:52.160 So far apart in our worldview. Well, I don't think 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:55.200 that being far apart is the problem, because if they 0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:58.680 were to come up with a well reasoned set of 0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:01.640 ideas backing up their opinion, then all right, let's get 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:03.080 it on, let's talk to each other. I'll bet this 0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:06.000 will be interesting. But if they are merely parroting what 0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:08.960 they think they're supposed to say, and in this case, 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:12.120 it's going to be ninety nine to one percentage wise 0:06:12.120 --> 0:06:15.760 the number of people who say it's it's wrong and 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:20.320 discriminatory to hold women to the same standards for combatists men. 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.200 They are so clearly not a person who can think 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:30.200 independently that you're wasting your time. Yeah, I don't know. 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.160 It'll be interesting to see if he's actually able to 0:06:32.200 --> 0:06:33.520 implement some of this stuff. 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:36.760 You know, I'm hoping the mainstream. 0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.719 Media is an outlier in terms of people's view on 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:41.680 this sort of thing, because, like I said, most of 0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:45.200 the coverage was, well, I don't know, we're gonna have 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:48.000 fewer women because they have a different standard. They're not 0:06:48.080 --> 0:06:49.760 gonna have a different standard for men and women. Women 0:06:49.800 --> 0:06:52.080 aren't quite as strong. Why would we have the same standard. 0:06:52.320 --> 0:06:53.760 It's like, I get it, I don't even know where 0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:54.080 to start. 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:58.200 Well, you are looking at a different goal than the 0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.560 rest of us, right, Your goal is to have the 0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:04.120 proper quota of women and people with a withered arm 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:07.320 or whatever. In combat, ours is to win and protect 0:07:07.320 --> 0:07:09.200 the country. You know, I take back what I said 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.600 about you're wasting your time because they have no independent thought. 0:07:11.840 --> 0:07:15.320 The simple truth is a large number of voters are sheep. 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:19.320 They don't think independently. They say what they think they're 0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:23.000 supposed to say. And you know, so you have to 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.720 sway a certain number of them and sit them down 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:27.960 and talk to them and explain to them, Well, if 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:31.360 somebody gets wounded and he weighs two hundred and forty pounds, 0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:35.120 that gal that you're advocating for can't save his life. 0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:37.720 She just can't. She might want to, and I know 0:07:37.760 --> 0:07:40.840 the stories of mothers pulling cars up into the air 0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:44.800 to save their baby, blah blah blah, but she just can't. 0:07:45.680 --> 0:07:49.120 Yeah, well, I hope the implementation can go. No more 0:07:49.160 --> 0:07:52.480 fat generals, that's what he said, No more fat generals. 0:07:53.840 --> 0:07:55.640 Let's start the show officially, because you know it's a 0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:57.000 big one, jem. 0:07:57.080 --> 0:08:01.080 Sorry, my emphasis needs to be on fat admirals because 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.600 a general at least is operating mostly on the ground, 0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.320 where you have fairly unlimited space. An admiral is on 0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:09.360 a ship. I mean, there's limited square footage on a 0:08:09.360 --> 0:08:13.000 ship certainly a submarine. So fat Admirals are getting off 0:08:13.000 --> 0:08:13.920 easy in my opinion. 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.720 Plus a good sink you just think it rub right, duh, 0:08:18.160 --> 0:08:20.360 you have to displace more water to keep you afloat. 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:24.040 Thank you. It's just physics there, all right. I'm Jack Armstrong. 0:08:24.080 --> 0:08:28.480 He's Joe Getty on this. It is Wednesday, October first, 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:31.520 the rent is due, the rent. It's too damn. 0:08:31.600 --> 0:08:33.599 Damn right, it is he you're twenty twenty five or 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:35.679 Armstrong in getting we approve of this program. 0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:38.280 Fat Admirals would be a pretty good band. Tamw Okay, 0:08:38.360 --> 0:08:39.839 let's beg in the show officially now according to the 0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:41.440 f SEC rules or eggs. Here we go. The show 0:08:41.440 --> 0:08:50.760 starts at Mark fer Service. The facility is closed to 0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:55.480 allow for vehicular remain on the side one across the street. 0:08:55.800 --> 0:09:03.520 Everyone must be in this restricted to depart the area. 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:08.000 So that's great. 0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:15.280 So that's Ai Trump ordering malcontents to disperse around federal buildings. 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.320 Is that like an official government thing? Or is that 0:09:17.360 --> 0:09:21.960 a joke? Or I well, it's both. He was he 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:23.719 it they The. 0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:29.040 Computer was reading the official legal warning to protesters who 0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:32.280 were violating the law. But it was in Trump's voice 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.280 to troll them, so it was both by the book 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:36.520 and hilarious. 0:09:37.640 --> 0:09:40.800 Speaking of trolling, we talked to yesterday about the AI 0:09:41.000 --> 0:09:43.600 video that Trump put out about the shutdown that had 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:47.560 Schumer there and Hakim Jeffreys there, and Schumer was saying 0:09:47.600 --> 0:09:51.520 things in Schumer's voice that weren't accurate but were funny, 0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:54.280 and Hakim Jefferys was wearing a sombrero and had a 0:09:54.280 --> 0:09:56.880 big mustache with mariachi music playing in the background, with 0:09:56.920 --> 0:10:01.680 the idea being that they're trying to get it healthcare 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:05.120 for illegals. Yes, he put out a new video today 0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:10.920 that is similar with Schumer saying even more crazy things, 0:10:10.920 --> 0:10:13.840 but this includes Trump as the mariachi band. It's all 0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:16.040 a bunch of Trumps playing the trumpet and the big 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:17.160 guitar and all that sort of. 0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:25.640 On his official site. These are odd times, especially with 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.760 the nightmare of the government shut down. 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:32.120 Here's my favorite stat about that whole thing. The government 0:10:32.120 --> 0:10:34.640 shut down for a full month the last time we 0:10:34.720 --> 0:10:38.320 did it. Do you even remember shut down for entire month? 0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:41.840 And John even remember that it happened? 0:10:42.400 --> 0:10:46.320 Honestly, what I remember is how hard they tried to 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:50.520 make it hurt normal people, right, because without those efforts, 0:10:51.520 --> 0:10:53.199 most people would just go about their business. 0:10:53.360 --> 0:10:53.520 Right. 0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:54.400 Oh yeah, that's right. 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:56.560 I was listening to some of the doom and gloom 0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.640 on one of the channels, and I thought, man, if 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:02.559 you have to try this hard to come up with 0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:07.920 something that is bad with the government shutting down, there's 0:11:07.960 --> 0:11:10.760 too much government. You shouldn't have to work this hard 0:11:11.160 --> 0:11:15.040 to come up with anything that could possibly upset anyone. 0:11:16.600 --> 0:11:20.480 You know, I have some example. Here's my example. On 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.560 the news, they said, for instance, Friday inflation numbers are 0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:25.240 supposed to be coming out. A lot of people are 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:27.120 looking forward to those, and those numbers will not come 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:27.760 out on time. 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:31.040 I thought, that's that's your Oh my god, the government 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:34.560 shut down. I gotta text my wife. We're not going 0:11:34.600 --> 0:11:36.920 to feed the dog until the government shutdown is over. 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.280 We can't, I mean, just not knowing the inflation numbers. 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:43.959 It's just we've got to take precautions, honey. Turn off 0:11:43.960 --> 0:11:46.319 the water at the main valve outside of the house, 0:11:46.520 --> 0:11:50.960 cancel the natural gas. Uh yeah. Here's my only analysis 0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:54.360 of it. It's a very weird shutdown because it's not 0:11:54.400 --> 0:11:59.560 over anything specific. It is merely the democratic party desperate 0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:03.559 to show that they're fighting Trump because they're aware of 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:08.560 their miserable, miserable unpopularity. And you know whether this works 0:12:08.640 --> 0:12:10.520 or not, we'll all find out together and it'll be fine. 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:16.800 But it is a real gamble by a beast that 0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:18.320 is in its death throws. 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.240 It's going to open this evening or Friday night while 0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:25.240 you're sleep, or next Tuesday, and you'll never think about 0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:26.720 it again in your life. 0:12:27.240 --> 0:12:32.760 That's where it's here's the Armstrong and Getty challenge. Please 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:36.439 note in your own life, if you'd have noticed it 0:12:37.200 --> 0:12:40.719 without being told that the government shut down and then 0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.760 when it opens, would you have noticed that without being 0:12:44.880 --> 0:12:47.640 told on any lefl No, that's a unicorn. That person 0:12:47.640 --> 0:12:48.400 will not exist. 0:12:48.840 --> 0:12:52.480 Who is a You're not a federal employee, obviously that 0:12:52.559 --> 0:12:55.000 you would have noticed it shutting down or starting back up. No, 0:12:55.160 --> 0:12:58.600 not a chance. Okay, we've got headlines on the way 0:12:58.600 --> 0:12:59.960 and much more news to get to. Hope you can 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:06.240 stay here. I took in some of Yankees Red Sox 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:09.240 and Dodgers Reds, but Yankees Red Sox, I mean, you 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:13.240 cannot get better than this for Major League Baseball. Yankee Stadium, 0:13:13.880 --> 0:13:18.000 bottom of the ninth bases loaded. That's as good as 0:13:18.000 --> 0:13:20.520 it gets for all of baseball. 0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:27.000 Crazy so awesome. Yeah, Yankees lost, by the way. Oh 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:31.320 it's good. It's good. Bases loaded, no outs and Yankees lost, 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:35.760 says the New York centric mainstream media figure Jack Armstrong. 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:39.679 Do you mean the Red Sox one? Well, no, it's media. 0:13:39.679 --> 0:13:44.000 Bases loaded, no outs in a close game and the 0:13:44.080 --> 0:13:47.320 pitcher went strikeout, flyout, strikeout and got out of the end. 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:52.920 It was awesome. Yeah, it's like the tension of a 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:57.720 last second fifty yard field goal stretched over ten minutes. Yeah, 0:13:57.720 --> 0:13:59.480 it was cool. Oh my god, is it in? Is 0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:01.360 it in? Is it? But for ten straight? That's what 0:14:01.400 --> 0:14:05.520 I love about baseball at its best. Let's figure out 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:07.480 who's reporting what it's The Lee's story with Katie Green. 0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.720 Delighted to have you back, Katie Hey. 0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:13.320 Friends, all right, starting with the Free Beacon. Dozens of 0:14:13.400 --> 0:14:17.800 ships in Greta Tuneberg's flotilla quote secretly owned. 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:23.600 By Hamas really really? Oh she probably doesn't know that, 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:26.280 but that's not surprising. Well that reminds me coming up 0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:29.840 great analysis of why the Arab States have lined up 0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:32.080 behind this deal. Oh okay, I want to hear that 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:33.280 it will shock you. 0:14:34.480 --> 0:14:38.840 From NBC, members of Congress to still get paid during 0:14:39.120 --> 0:14:40.600 government shutdown. 0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:42.560 They always make sure of that, Thank God. 0:14:44.440 --> 0:14:48.760 From USA today, many Americans fear that they can't afford 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:50.200 pets anymore due. 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:54.440 To rising vet costs. Eh, none of my business. 0:14:54.560 --> 0:14:57.840 But the number of people I know who openly state 0:14:57.960 --> 0:15:04.160 that they're struggling and have of one to three petsdang it. 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:06.040 What of the reasons I didn't have a dog when 0:15:06.040 --> 0:15:09.920 I was young and poor? Is there expensive? Oh yeah, yeah, 0:15:10.000 --> 0:15:13.000 you have no idea how expensive until you get one? 0:15:13.560 --> 0:15:20.080 Even cats From Fox News, Diddy's ex Cassie fears swift 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:24.720 retribution if Rapper walks free, as prosecutors pushed for eleven year. 0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:26.600 Sentence, he can walk free. 0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.080 Yeah, there's a chance he's getting sentenced on. 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:33.200 Friday, all right. Yeah, the defense is asking for time served. 0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:34.440 He'll get more than that. 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:39.280 From the Washington Post, Fat Bear Week has a new champion, 0:15:39.680 --> 0:15:41.120 and he is a total chunk. 0:15:41.960 --> 0:15:44.400 I saw good looking bear has a broken jaw. They 0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:46.760 should have fat General Week where we all see pictures 0:15:46.800 --> 0:15:49.120 of fat generals to pick our favorite line. Oh right, 0:15:49.360 --> 0:15:52.480 fun and I texted everybody the concert poster for fat 0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.960 Admirals their first show. He check your text. 0:15:55.280 --> 0:15:56.680 Yes, that will be going on the wall of my 0:15:56.680 --> 0:15:57.920 studio at my house, by the way. 0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:00.240 Excellent from the New York Post. 0:16:00.600 --> 0:16:04.480 According to new survey, sixty five percent of Americans have 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:06.920 already planned their own funerals. 0:16:08.240 --> 0:16:12.560 Two thirds have I haven't. I'm in the minority. I haven't, 0:16:12.640 --> 0:16:14.760 And I'm closer to the grave than you know, the 0:16:14.800 --> 0:16:19.920 average person's true true my life. 0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:21.200 Oh yeah, okay. 0:16:21.600 --> 0:16:25.680 Study fines two billion people feast on insects regularly. 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:28.520 Is it time that we embraced a hybrid diet? Oh 0:16:28.520 --> 0:16:30.280 they've been pushing this on me since I was a kid. 0:16:30.640 --> 0:16:34.040 Are you beating bugs? Someday? I'm not. They've got lots 0:16:34.040 --> 0:16:36.480 of protein, et cetera, et cetera. You know in Africa, 0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:38.680 et cetera, et cetera, ain't happening. 0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:43.800 And finally from the Babylon b NFL hoping to win 0:16:43.880 --> 0:16:47.760 back conservatives with Super Bowl performance by Spanish speaking man. 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:49.840 In address Nah, good one. 0:16:49.960 --> 0:16:53.800 Oh boy, I thought I had heard a couple of 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.120 not that long ago that bugs actually don't have really 0:16:58.160 --> 0:17:00.760 more protein or anything than of other things. 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:02.600 So there's no many deat bugs. There's plenty of other 0:17:02.640 --> 0:17:07.359 alternatives rights. My life has been living proof of that. 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:09.000 I think I've eaten very few bugs. 0:17:09.000 --> 0:17:11.399 Indeeds, I had a whole plate of bugs in Mexico 0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:16.280 one time, not knowing it. Ants and crickets and all 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:16.720 kinds of. 0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:20.919 They crawled onto your I'll have to tell the story sometimes, 0:17:21.240 --> 0:17:22.359 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:23.440 --> 0:17:26.440 The two year anniversary of the October seventh Hamas terror 0:17:26.480 --> 0:17:28.959 attack that started this war is a week from today. 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:33.440 Hamas has less time than that to review the twenty 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:36.160 point peace plan and get back to the White House 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:37.359 with a yes or no. 0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.240 We're going to do about three or four days. We'll 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:40.440 see how it is. That means. 0:17:40.480 --> 0:17:44.560 Hamas has told this weekend to accept President Trump's twenty 0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:49.560 principles of peace or prepare for an Israeli military onslaught 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:51.120 backed by the United States. 0:17:51.240 --> 0:17:54.199 Hamas has to agree they don't. There's got to be 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:56.360 very tough on them. But it is what it is. 0:17:56.480 --> 0:17:58.600 I didn't realize they'd put a deadline on that soon. 0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:00.399 So this weekend Hamas has got to come back with 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:00.960 a yes or no. 0:18:02.320 --> 0:18:06.200 Yeah, and the first of all the newsy stuff before 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:10.359 the analysis. The militant group has told mediators that it 0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:15.160 is absolutely seriously looking at it. It has reservations about 0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:18.080 some of the terms of the twenty point plan, including 0:18:18.119 --> 0:18:21.359 the stipulation that it disarm and destroy its weapons, which 0:18:21.400 --> 0:18:25.520 is it is previously rejected over and over again. Amas 0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.440 also says releasing all forty eight hostages within three days 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.360 is laid out in the Trump Plan, would be difficult 0:18:30.400 --> 0:18:33.000 because it has lost contact in recent weeks with some 0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:36.359 other militant groups holding a number of them. Wow, I 0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:40.000 don't know. I would suggest that you try really really 0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:41.240 hard to find them. 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:45.200 Well, the fact that Israel is saying you lay down 0:18:45.240 --> 0:18:48.919 your arms and we'll you know, we'll forgive, forgive you. 0:18:48.960 --> 0:18:50.960 They don't use that word, but we won't. We won't 0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:54.280 come after you anymore. We'll call it off. 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.520 That's a heck of a thing for people that came 0:18:56.640 --> 0:18:59.879 into your country and murdered babies and grandma's. 0:19:00.680 --> 0:19:09.840 Yeah, it's an amnesty at right, right. So anyway, one 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:12.960 I came across two pieces of analysis that I thought 0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:16.240 were great, won by Michael Orrin in the Free Press, 0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:21.560 and his problem with it is that there's a real 0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:27.160 lack of timetables, and he, like me, believes that Hamas 0:19:27.320 --> 0:19:30.000 will act like it's complying or it agrees or what 0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:34.000 have you. But then the foot dragging, the tiptoeing right 0:19:34.080 --> 0:19:36.760 up to the line of violating the agreement or actually 0:19:36.880 --> 0:19:41.480 violating it will begin, and they will begin sewing chaos 0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.320 as quickly as possible. And he's troubled by the lack 0:19:44.359 --> 0:19:47.359 of structure here. I have a feeling that will come along, 0:19:48.320 --> 0:19:54.600 especially with Trump involved, if they in a Putin like way, 0:19:54.640 --> 0:19:57.120 although Trump's response to Putin hasn't been everything I think 0:19:57.119 --> 0:19:59.000 it should be. But if they in a Putin like 0:19:59.040 --> 0:20:01.240 way string him along over and over again, he's going 0:20:01.280 --> 0:20:04.000 to say, all right, you got a week to achieve 0:20:04.040 --> 0:20:06.320 these three goals, or it's all off. We're going to 0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:10.000 attack you anyway. Michael larn by the way, a badass warrior. 0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:12.080 From the way back in the day in some of 0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:15.000 Israel's biggest wars and wrote a fantastic book called Six 0:20:15.080 --> 0:20:15.479 Days of War. 0:20:15.520 --> 0:20:17.440 If you ever want to read about that one an 0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:21.480 excellent tip. Six Days of War terrific. So this guy 0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:25.919 has no illusions about Hamas cooperating. His belief is that 0:20:25.960 --> 0:20:28.000 they will only cooperate to the extent that they are 0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:31.320 forced to cooperate. And he says, potentially fatal flaw on 0:20:31.359 --> 0:20:33.840 the plan is its assumption that after nearly forty years 0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:37.920 of radical Islamism, countless terrorist attacks, and an unprecedented level 0:20:37.920 --> 0:20:43.119 of international support, HAMAS will change its DNA, Which is 0:20:43.119 --> 0:20:45.800 what I was saying yesterday. If their stated purpose is 0:20:45.840 --> 0:20:47.880 to wipe the Jews off the face of the earth, 0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:52.720 specifically Israel, becoming some sort of men's club or civic 0:20:52.920 --> 0:20:55.639 organization is going to be a difficult transition. 0:20:56.880 --> 0:20:59.040 Well, I still think the hope is if they agree 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:01.199 to it. You get so many countries involved, including a 0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.520 whole bunch of Arab countries that are running that Gaza strip, 0:21:03.760 --> 0:21:07.480 and HAMAS just isn't in no position to do what 0:21:07.520 --> 0:21:08.480 they've done in the past. 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:13.800 Yeah, they die for lack of you know, fertilizer support relevance. 0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:17.520 So here's the thing I found really really interesting why 0:21:18.040 --> 0:21:22.520 Katar changed course on Hamas. And this is written by 0:21:22.600 --> 0:21:28.119 Emit Siegel, who was is a chief political commentator in 0:21:28.359 --> 0:21:32.880 Israeli media and the author of a book of history 0:21:32.960 --> 0:21:36.800 about Israeli politics and that sort of thing. He says, 0:21:36.800 --> 0:21:38.480 it's too early to know if they'll only be an 0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:42.080 agreement to the warrant Gaza and whether it'll be implemented. 0:21:42.280 --> 0:21:45.320 But there is a reason for President Trump's optimism that 0:21:45.359 --> 0:21:48.119 Hamas might release hostages, give up its weapons, and leave power. 0:21:48.520 --> 0:21:53.320 Change is afoot not in Gaza, but in Doha, capital 0:21:53.320 --> 0:21:56.639 of Qatar. The government of Qatar is pressuring its proteges 0:21:56.680 --> 0:22:00.320 to accept the deal. The regime which thwarted the last 0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:05.080 hostage deal changed its mind because the war has reached 0:22:05.119 --> 0:22:12.000 its home. After the IDF operated in five Muslim capitals Gaza, Beirut, Damascus, 0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:16.399 Sanna and Tehran, it hit Doha the attempted killing of 0:22:16.400 --> 0:22:19.320 senior MAAS officials in broad daylight, and Katar signaled to 0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:22.280
