WEBVTT - You've Been So Soured By Life

0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center.

0:00:07.840 --> 0:00:11.719
<v Speaker 2>Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong and Jettike and

0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:25.840
<v Speaker 2>now he Armstrong and Yetty. What do you think? How'sh

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:28.680
<v Speaker 2>your we kid? Looking good? Fantastic? Glad to hear it.

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:31.640
<v Speaker 2>My son doesn't my birthday boy. He doesn't like cake,

0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 2>doesn't want a birthday cake his first year. He's old

0:00:34.760 --> 0:00:36.680
<v Speaker 2>enough to just say out loud, don't give me a cake.

0:00:37.200 --> 0:00:41.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't like like cake. I've never really liked cake either.

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 2>I like it, I'll eat it, but.

0:00:43.960 --> 0:00:47.520
<v Speaker 1>Let me eat cake. To paraphrase Marie Antoinette, who if.

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:49.960
<v Speaker 2>I got it? Ten choices for assert and one of

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.000
<v Speaker 2>them's cake, probably going to be a bunch of other things.

0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:54.400
<v Speaker 2>I choose ahead a cake. I think my mom made

0:00:54.400 --> 0:01:01.800
<v Speaker 2>a birthday pie a couple times. Mmm, the ultimate dessert. Yes,

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:03.760
<v Speaker 2>a cake would not be at the top of my list,

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:07.720
<v Speaker 2>right would. It would probably be a pie, A pie

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.120
<v Speaker 2>dressed up by ice cream even better.

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.920
<v Speaker 1>I like cheesecake, but that's not really cake. I love

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:17.880
<v Speaker 1>cheesecake cheesecakes. A pie, isn't it, folks? Or is it

0:01:17.959 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 1>like the taco which I've long maintained as a sandwich.

0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>It's a hybrid, it's an in between her. Nobody knows.

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I will almost always order bread pudding if that's an option.

0:01:26.120 --> 0:01:27.920
<v Speaker 2>You have never had any idea what you're gonna get

0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:29.360
<v Speaker 2>because it varies so much.

0:01:29.560 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 1>But bread pudding with a nice sauce drizzled on it,

0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:35.760
<v Speaker 1>that's that's top of the heap, right there.

0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 2>Man, Yes, sir, oh that's right. We're doing a show.

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's get down to business to deal with I was

0:01:44.360 --> 0:01:46.080
<v Speaker 1>talking about this with my kids the other day because

0:01:46.080 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 1>we were at a fancy restaurant and we're talking about

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:49.480
<v Speaker 1>getting dessert.

0:01:49.520 --> 0:01:54.720
<v Speaker 2>This was for my birthday, and my seventh grader said,

0:01:54.920 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 2>I'd really I'd rather have a mcflory because there was

0:01:57.520 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 2>a McDonald's we passed on the whole of the restaurant,

0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>and I was having the conversation that I often have.

0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 2>There's lots of desserts like that that if you serve

0:02:06.160 --> 0:02:08.720
<v Speaker 2>that at a fancy restaurant and up the price and

0:02:08.760 --> 0:02:11.320
<v Speaker 2>gave it a different name, people say, oh, this is good.

0:02:11.360 --> 0:02:13.760
<v Speaker 2>Have you had the you know, give it an Italian

0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:17.080
<v Speaker 2>name something or other at a fancy restaurant, mcflury's freaking awesome.

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:21.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I haven't had one in many years because I'm

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:24.079
<v Speaker 1>not a child, so I don't know that.

0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, yeah, man, remember our old sales guy friend Tim,

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 2>who used to say he always wished they'd offer the back.

0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Then he called it the one dollar dessert. Maybe now

0:02:38.720 --> 0:02:40.360
<v Speaker 2>you need to call it the three dollar dessert, but

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:44.560
<v Speaker 2>just a smaller portion. I'd like dessert, but I don't

0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:46.600
<v Speaker 2>need a piece of cake the sides of my head

0:02:47.000 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 2>or whatever it is you're going to bring me that

0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 2>costs fifteen dollars. So if we all get dessert, you know,

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:54.240
<v Speaker 2>we've just increased the bill by fifty bucks. Can we

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:56.480
<v Speaker 2>just get, like, you know, a couple of bytes of

0:02:56.600 --> 0:02:58.320
<v Speaker 2>one of these things for a couple bucks.

0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, a dessert and dessert in three forks or four

0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:03.280
<v Speaker 1>forks or whatever it is one way to approach it.

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:05.080
<v Speaker 2>But hey, Katy, you got to help me with this.

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.399
<v Speaker 2>What's what's the cake that's.

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Got like the chocolate sauce and stuff, the volcano cake

0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 1>or lava cakes? Yeah, yeah, oh now that's a good cake, right.

0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:17.519
<v Speaker 2>I'm I was afraid to burn my tongue. I've never

0:03:17.560 --> 0:03:21.760
<v Speaker 2>had it just sounds so hot. But is the reason

0:03:21.800 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 2>they don't offer just a little nibble of everything. It's

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 2>just that it'd be it's such a profit center to

0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:30.120
<v Speaker 2>have people order the dessert and charge a lot for it.

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 1>And now I'll bet there's data on its a guy

0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 1>who's in the like the umbrella management of restaurants world,

0:03:40.920 --> 0:03:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and how it's amazing to me. It's you know, it's

0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:47.480
<v Speaker 1>obvious when you think about it, but I never thought

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:50.440
<v Speaker 1>about how data driven it all is. How they have

0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>built in expectations about various days of the week, and

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.280
<v Speaker 1>the number of covers that they're going to serve, which

0:03:55.320 --> 0:04:01.880
<v Speaker 1>is just restaurant term for people plates, and how carefully all.

0:04:01.720 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Of that is studied.

0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:06.920
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, they absolutely could show you the spreadsheet of

0:04:07.360 --> 0:04:09.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, percentage of diners who ordered desserts, how many

0:04:09.800 --> 0:04:14.000
<v Speaker 1>are multiple desserts per table? And if you ordered the

0:04:14.360 --> 0:04:16.960
<v Speaker 1>if you offered the little fellas, would you lose the

0:04:17.000 --> 0:04:19.720
<v Speaker 1>profit from three different people wanting three different things?

0:04:19.720 --> 0:04:21.000
<v Speaker 2>But I'm guessing that's true.

0:04:21.320 --> 0:04:23.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So another thing I want to get to speaking

0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 1>of food this hour, is a little more on that

0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>whole ultra processed food thing. What does that mean? How

0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.320
<v Speaker 1>can you tell of what your feed in your family

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 1>is that? And also it's funny partly because of the

0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:39.440
<v Speaker 1>Trump fever pitch of changes and orders and policies and

0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:44.600
<v Speaker 1>tariffs and all. Did you realize the college CAMPI the

0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>alleged elite universities are every bit as cuckoo nuts pro

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:52.800
<v Speaker 1>hamas this year as they were last year.

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:54.920
<v Speaker 2>It's just not getting as much coverage.

0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:56.680
<v Speaker 1>We could touch on that if we wanted, but first

0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:58.599
<v Speaker 1>let's take a fond look back at the week there was.

0:04:58.640 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 2>It's cow clips of the week, and we don't have

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:02.840
<v Speaker 2>time to kiss each those.

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 3>Asses, which for the weak.

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:11.880
<v Speaker 2>America is back.

0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:20.000
<v Speaker 3>Million dollars to promote lgbt q I plus in the

0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 3>African nation of Lesuto, which nobody has ever heard of.

0:05:26.880 --> 0:05:31.000
<v Speaker 2>From the table, Wokeness is trouble. Wokeness is bad.

0:05:31.279 --> 0:05:34.599
<v Speaker 3>It's gone, it's gone, and we feel so much better

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:34.919
<v Speaker 3>for it.

0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:38.680
<v Speaker 2>Only don't we feel better? And now I want.

0:05:38.520 --> 0:05:43.119
<v Speaker 3>Congress to pass a bill permanently banning and criminalizing sex

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 3>changes on children.

0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.919
<v Speaker 4>Make no mistake that this is just another version of

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:50.520
<v Speaker 4>state sanctioned bullying and genocide.

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 2>Would you do something like that? Would you say no?

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Men and female sports? Well, it's I think it's an

0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.719
<v Speaker 2>issue of fairness. I completely agree with you on that.

0:05:57.720 --> 0:05:58.919
<v Speaker 2>Have you said thank you once?

0:05:59.240 --> 0:06:03.400
<v Speaker 1>That is, he found every opportunity to try to Ukraine's

0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:05.160
<v Speaker 1>plain on every issue.

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 2>So I'm not hearing from you, mister president. Thought that

0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:10.080
<v Speaker 2>you owe the president and apology.

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I think that we have to be very open and

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:18.719
<v Speaker 1>very honest. Are the Europeans willing to stand up for themselves?

0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:22.719
<v Speaker 2>We must not give in to any exist.

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 5>Pray, listen, this trend, if you all trying to get

0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:33.640
<v Speaker 5>thrown out of committee so you can get on.

0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:36.440
<v Speaker 2>ABC is going to end more. We're not gonna put

0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:39.360
<v Speaker 2>up with it. What's the problem is that Democrats are

0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 2>on the wrong side of normal and you're going to

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 2>continue to speak lies to his truth that ain't true.

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:50.360
<v Speaker 2>That's what you just heard. That's what you just heard.

0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:51.840
<v Speaker 2>That's what you just saw.

0:06:52.680 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 6>Trump adding a twenty five percent tax on all goods

0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:58.040
<v Speaker 6>coming across the border, because if you've.

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:01.080
<v Speaker 3>Been influencing those decisions because of them are reaction. I'm

0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:03.680
<v Speaker 3>not even looking at the market shallow me.

0:07:05.960 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 7>You know, winning for Best Picture and the Oscar goes

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:21.320
<v Speaker 7>to Honora's.

0:07:18.160 --> 0:07:20.440
<v Speaker 3>Fifty thousand and two points.

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Far better is it to dare mighty things to win

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:27.720
<v Speaker 1>glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to rank

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>with those poor spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much

0:07:31.080 --> 0:07:33.440
<v Speaker 1>because they live in a gray twilight that knows not

0:07:33.600 --> 0:07:35.320
<v Speaker 1>victory nor defeat.

0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:39.520
<v Speaker 2>Checkered by failure. The Armstrong and Giddy Show, that's that's

0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 2>a good.

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.320
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.280
<v Speaker 2>So a couple of things on the oscars which I

0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 2>couldn't have told you for money, that were just this

0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 2>past Sunday. Adam Sandler is funny when he said hold

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.560
<v Speaker 2>on a second and he runs down to Timothy Shallowy Shallowy.

0:07:56.000 --> 0:08:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Its just such an that means nothing but as funny.

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 2>But that Anora movie. So, I haven't watched it. It's

0:08:04.600 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 2>two hours long and it's about the sex industry. It's

0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 2>a dramedy, that's all I know about it. And it's

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:12.440
<v Speaker 2>about a yeah, sex worker who marries a retresh. Well,

0:08:12.480 --> 0:08:14.560
<v Speaker 2>have you watch it? Uh? No, I just read it

0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:18.760
<v Speaker 2>for it. So somebody told me the other day they

0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:22.440
<v Speaker 2>watched it and the it's an The first hour is

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.840
<v Speaker 2>like watching a pornal, they said. It's just basically nothing

0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:28.240
<v Speaker 2>but sex for an hour. They said, buck black because

0:08:28.240 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 2>it's just an hour of sex. Then they really get

0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:35.800
<v Speaker 2>into the you know, the plot. Yeah. One reviewer, a

0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:37.480
<v Speaker 2>guy who I really respect.

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 1>The one thing he said is, you know, if you

0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:42.520
<v Speaker 1>like that sort of movie, it's a it's a pretty

0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 1>good one. But the idea that that's the best picture

0:08:45.679 --> 0:08:48.040
<v Speaker 1>is just an indictment of movie making right now.

0:08:48.240 --> 0:08:50.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, is it just they're thrilled with the idea of

0:08:50.880 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 2>having something so sexual? Is I don't know. I'd have

0:08:53.640 --> 0:08:54.120
<v Speaker 2>to watch it.

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I well, And a lot of the statements by people

0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:59.280
<v Speaker 1>in support of it was all about humanizing sex work

0:08:59.320 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 1>and sex work promoting their point of view. Yeah, I know,

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:06.719
<v Speaker 1>I know. So a couple couple of shat app is right.

0:09:06.800 --> 0:09:10.040
<v Speaker 1>A couple of thoughts on cow. First of all, on language,

0:09:11.559 --> 0:09:16.240
<v Speaker 1>loved Trump not adopting the language of the woke left

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 1>and saying we're not going to have sex changes. On children,

0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 1>don't ever use terms like gender affirming care.

0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Hell, don't even use gender unless.

0:09:28.240 --> 0:09:29.920
<v Speaker 1>You're in front of kids, and saying there are only

0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:32.319
<v Speaker 1>two sexes will make them giggle because the word sex

0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:39.600
<v Speaker 1>sex changes for children is the terminology to you. Secondly,

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:45.720
<v Speaker 1>that one woke moron talking about the transgender thing saying

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:50.520
<v Speaker 1>it's it's bullying and genocide. Those people are gonna do

0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:54.440
<v Speaker 1>for the word genocide what they did for the word racist,

0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:59.480
<v Speaker 1>render it completely meaningless by calling everything genocide all the time.

0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 1>Thank them for doing my work for me. Yeah, exactly

0:10:02.679 --> 0:10:06.120
<v Speaker 1>exactly the same thing. And secondly I appreciate it, or

0:10:06.160 --> 0:10:10.280
<v Speaker 1>thirdly I appreciated James Comer in that hearing saying, look

0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 1>this thing where you get thrown out of a committee

0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:16.280
<v Speaker 1>hearing so you can get on an MSNBC. It's got

0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 1>to end. Call it for what it is, Well done,

0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:27.520
<v Speaker 1>James Charley. I gotta watch the Dylan movie. When's it

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.760
<v Speaker 1>gonna be on my TV? I don't want to go

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:30.319
<v Speaker 1>to a theater?

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, really, dug that.

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Favorite Bob Dylanton. People don't know, uh huh.

0:10:39.880 --> 0:10:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Favorite Bob Dylan. I think unless you're not an obvious

0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:46.800
<v Speaker 2>hit almost all of them. Yeah I suppose so, yeah,

0:10:47.080 --> 0:10:49.440
<v Speaker 2>obvious hit and have I hit you mean popular Bob

0:10:49.480 --> 0:10:51.360
<v Speaker 2>Doylon because he didn't really have many hits?

0:10:52.080 --> 0:10:56.880
<v Speaker 1>No, No, but like saying the times they are changing, No.

0:10:56.960 --> 0:11:01.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm highly annoyed by the early they got, you know,

0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 2>used in the civil rights movement.

0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:08.080
<v Speaker 1>That really you can't appreciate them as song craft, even

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:09.640
<v Speaker 1>so soured by life.

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:15.319
<v Speaker 2>He didn't even he drove him nuts. So all he

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:16.800
<v Speaker 2>drives me is a fan nuts.

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, fair enough, fair enough, mine's joker man. Love that song?

0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:22.920
<v Speaker 1>Oh what time is it? Yeah, we gotta take a break,

0:11:24.559 --> 0:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>trying to think of my favorite deserted arrestaurant.

0:11:26.800 --> 0:11:29.360
<v Speaker 2>Flowerless cake is a different kind of cake I will

0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:32.319
<v Speaker 2>usually get if there's a chocolate flowerless cake. I love it.

0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:35.559
<v Speaker 2>Dense as uranium. One bite and you need a cup

0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.480
<v Speaker 2>of coffee or you're gonna die. Yeah.

0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I take one bite and say, hey, take this back

0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:40.680
<v Speaker 1>to the kitchen, put some flour in it.

0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:43.120
<v Speaker 2>This is garbage. Okay, we got more on the way.

0:11:43.160 --> 0:11:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Stay here. Coming up, We got to read from this

0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:53.320
<v Speaker 2>New York Times story that just hit about this explosive

0:11:53.360 --> 0:11:55.440
<v Speaker 2>meeting that happened to the White House where people had

0:11:55.440 --> 0:11:59.200
<v Speaker 2>had enough of Elon Musk and a cabinet members and

0:12:00.000 --> 0:12:02.320
<v Speaker 2>Times makes crap up all the time. But this is

0:12:02.440 --> 0:12:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Maggie Haberman who's made some stuff up through Russia hoax,

0:12:05.400 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 2>but Jonathan Swan, who I usually trust. And also it

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:11.959
<v Speaker 2>just rings true. It just sounds like I can believe

0:12:11.960 --> 0:12:15.439
<v Speaker 2>it actually happened Rubio has had enough of your musk

0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:16.719
<v Speaker 2>and you know that sort of thing.

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:20.760
<v Speaker 1>So, yeah, Marco, isn't some big donor or Johnny come

0:12:20.840 --> 0:12:23.760
<v Speaker 1>lately appointed at the first task, you know, and kind

0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:26.359
<v Speaker 1>of obsequious.

0:12:26.080 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 2>For a cable news show.

0:12:27.320 --> 0:12:30.079
<v Speaker 1>No right, So, speaking of breaking new stuff, I was

0:12:30.160 --> 0:12:32.920
<v Speaker 1>just jumped on Twitter to check something and the first

0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.440
<v Speaker 1>thing I come across is this. This is the last

0:12:35.440 --> 0:12:39.000
<v Speaker 1>time I'll ask, seriously, does anyone know what happened to

0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Anne Hash?

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:43.520
<v Speaker 8>What this is?

0:12:43.679 --> 0:12:47.080
<v Speaker 1>Set the top of your mind of all the topics,

0:12:48.000 --> 0:12:50.360
<v Speaker 1>or you could google it.

0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:52.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure there's some information out there somewhere, but you

0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 2>can't gather by the radio every day hoping someday we'll

0:12:55.480 --> 0:12:56.920
<v Speaker 2>talk about whatever happened Anne.

0:12:56.720 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Hash, unless you're Anne Hash's sibling or mother of what

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:02.240
<v Speaker 1>the hell show you?

0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:02.680
<v Speaker 2>So?

0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:07.480
<v Speaker 1>Mention mentioned this earlier that more than half of American's

0:13:07.520 --> 0:13:09.760
<v Speaker 1>diets are these ultra processed foods and it's really not

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.400
<v Speaker 1>good for you, and a big news study says that

0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:17.680
<v Speaker 1>it's just about it's not I can't remember, it's it's

0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:19.640
<v Speaker 1>more than half at home as well as eating out,

0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:22.120
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of people assume it's all fast food

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:25.079
<v Speaker 1>that is the problem here, but it's not, and they

0:13:25.559 --> 0:13:30.439
<v Speaker 1>hand along a healthy definition. Ultra Processed foods are industrial formulations.

0:13:31.320 --> 0:13:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Oh, industrial formulations, mom.

0:13:33.679 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 8>That's yummy.

0:13:35.200 --> 0:13:38.920
<v Speaker 1>That contain substances with little or no nutritional values, such

0:13:38.920 --> 0:13:45.320
<v Speaker 1>as colorings, immulsifiers, artificial flavors, and sweeteners. Examples include packaged snacks,

0:13:45.600 --> 0:13:50.520
<v Speaker 1>sugary cereals, chips, hot dogs, prepackaged hot dogs.

0:13:50.960 --> 0:13:54.840
<v Speaker 2>No, now, yes, now, you hurt my feelings. Look at

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:57.439
<v Speaker 2>nitrate rockets. They've called them that for twenty years.

0:13:58.120 --> 0:14:04.640
<v Speaker 1>Beef, isn't there some No? No, no, well, yes, there's

0:14:05.120 --> 0:14:07.760
<v Speaker 1>the one hundred percent of the meat in it is beef,

0:14:08.360 --> 0:14:09.559
<v Speaker 1>not one hundred percent.

0:14:09.320 --> 0:14:11.559
<v Speaker 2>Of the hot dog. The rest of it is emulcients

0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:12.560
<v Speaker 2>or whatever that word was.

0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:19.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, colorings and multifiers, artificial flavors, sweeteners, preservatives, rocket fuel,

0:14:19.760 --> 0:14:21.800
<v Speaker 1>whatever else so helps.

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:25.080
<v Speaker 2>And you know worse, that's exactly right.

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:29.480
<v Speaker 1>Examples include package snacks, sugar, cereals, chips, hot dogs, prepackaged meats,

0:14:29.480 --> 0:14:32.760
<v Speaker 1>prepackaged meals, and many types of bread.

0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:36.040
<v Speaker 2>I contrast you, Yes, I can't tell you how many

0:14:36.160 --> 0:14:40.440
<v Speaker 2>days of my life I have eaten only probably ultra

0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:45.880
<v Speaker 2>processed food, maybe, like certainly as an adult, maybe two

0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 2>thirds of my days on earth. Yeah, yeah, not good.

0:14:49.840 --> 0:14:57.080
<v Speaker 1>My contrast, minimally processed foods include fruits, vegetables, whole grains, eggs, milk,

0:14:57.160 --> 0:15:00.680
<v Speaker 1>and other foods that undergo minimal processing like freezing or

0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>simple packaging without adding substantial ingredies.

0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.480
<v Speaker 2>My brother said, the last time we all got together

0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:08.480
<v Speaker 2>as a family, he said, I think I had a

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:13.920
<v Speaker 2>vegetable once in the nineties. He ate some vegetable just

0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:18.520
<v Speaker 2>so Sam might eat vegetables when Sam was little, But

0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:20.720
<v Speaker 2>other than that, he hasn't had a vegetable since the

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.200
<v Speaker 2>early nineties. And he's alive for his colon.

0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:29.920
<v Speaker 1>And they make the point that minimally processed foods, this

0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:33.480
<v Speaker 1>is the good stuff, tend to be more expensive, more perishable,

0:15:33.800 --> 0:15:37.040
<v Speaker 1>less available in some communities, and require more cooking skills

0:15:37.160 --> 0:15:40.680
<v Speaker 1>or pre planning. By contrast, ultra processed foods are easier

0:15:40.680 --> 0:15:43.720
<v Speaker 1>and faster to prepare, often less expensive, and more shelf stable.

0:15:44.400 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. For me, it's the last longer stable part that

0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:53.600
<v Speaker 2>sucks me in. I don't live in a food desert,

0:15:53.720 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 2>thank god, where I don't have access because I'm a

0:15:57.000 --> 0:15:59.400
<v Speaker 2>white guy. They made sure any white guys in this neighborhood,

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:01.040
<v Speaker 2>and let's put a grocery store in here.

0:16:01.720 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 8>Yay.

0:16:03.280 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 2>And it's not the expense, because it's only slightly more,

0:16:06.920 --> 0:16:09.840
<v Speaker 2>but the fact that you know, it can sit in

0:16:09.880 --> 0:16:13.640
<v Speaker 2>a box in the pantry for two months and you

0:16:13.760 --> 0:16:16.480
<v Speaker 2>open the plastic bag and it's still perfectly fine. It's

0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:18.760
<v Speaker 2>pretty handy, and you buy fruits and vegetables. You gotta

0:16:18.800 --> 0:16:20.360
<v Speaker 2>eat them this weekend nor they're ruined.

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah, Or the stuff can sit in the freezer

0:16:23.800 --> 0:16:26.160
<v Speaker 1>for the rest of your natural life and your grandchildren

0:16:26.200 --> 0:16:28.760
<v Speaker 1>in the year twenty You know, with twenty one forty,

0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you'll open it up and say, hey, these hot pockets

0:16:30.800 --> 0:16:35.320
<v Speaker 1>are pretty good. They haven't been manufactured for one hundred

0:16:35.320 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and ten years, but they're tasty tastes just like pepperoni. Anyway,

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:43.480
<v Speaker 1>the college kids are still completely nuts. Maybe we can

0:16:43.520 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 1>get to that. You want to do the crypto thing?

0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. We got a week and stuff into

0:16:47.080 --> 0:16:49.040
<v Speaker 2>the rest of the show. Elosive New York Times story

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:51.320
<v Speaker 2>I want to read from, well, the explosive New York Times.

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:56.160
<v Speaker 2>It's gossip mostly, although not completely, because it hasn't everybody

0:16:56.200 --> 0:16:58.920
<v Speaker 2>been wondering when's the Trump thing? The Elon Trump thing

0:16:58.960 --> 0:17:00.760
<v Speaker 2>blow up. It's got to it at some point, right,

0:17:00.800 --> 0:17:03.600
<v Speaker 2>doesn't it sure to? Anyway, this is some pretty good

0:17:03.600 --> 0:17:06.280
<v Speaker 2>gossip among the things we got on coming up. If

0:17:06.320 --> 0:17:07.720
<v Speaker 2>you miss a segment or now, or just get the

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:14.199
<v Speaker 2>podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty.

0:17:16.200 --> 0:17:21.959
<v Speaker 9>Elon has been really teaching everybody about the numbers that

0:17:22.040 --> 0:17:23.640
<v Speaker 9>you can do. But what I want is I want

0:17:23.680 --> 0:17:25.000
<v Speaker 9>the numbers, but I also want.

0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:26.160
<v Speaker 2>To keep the good people.

0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:28.480
<v Speaker 9>We want to get rid of the people that aren't working,

0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:31.320
<v Speaker 9>that aren't showing up and have a lot of problems.

0:17:31.359 --> 0:17:34.840
<v Speaker 9>And so they're working together with Elon, and I think

0:17:34.840 --> 0:17:36.520
<v Speaker 9>we're doing a really great job.

0:17:37.280 --> 0:17:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Trump announcing yesterday that cabinet secretaries can keep whoever they

0:17:41.600 --> 0:17:43.560
<v Speaker 2>want to keep if they're doing a good job. That's

0:17:43.600 --> 0:17:46.840
<v Speaker 2>being read by some people as a bit of reigning

0:17:46.960 --> 0:17:51.919
<v Speaker 2>in Elon's power. Elon, as I've said many times, is

0:17:51.960 --> 0:17:58.400
<v Speaker 2>the only name in the last ten years that can

0:17:58.520 --> 0:18:03.800
<v Speaker 2>rival Trump's for its ubiquitousness. At least in the last

0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.520
<v Speaker 2>three weeks. I hear about Elon multiple times a day.

0:18:07.240 --> 0:18:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Got an article in the Wall Street Journal today about

0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:13.879
<v Speaker 2>how Tesla stock is down. They have a bunch of

0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:17.440
<v Speaker 2>anecdotal quotes from people who are talking about selling their

0:18:17.440 --> 0:18:21.080
<v Speaker 2>Tesla's as lefties because they're so embarrassed. It's like where

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:23.840
<v Speaker 2>it's like driving a giant MAGA hat, said one liberal.

0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:27.120
<v Speaker 1>Okay, whatever, Yeah, you're some statistics that made us seem

0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:31.800
<v Speaker 1>pretty significant. That yeah, change in the marketplace. I don't

0:18:32.359 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 1>doubt it. I mean it was, well, it was a

0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:36.160
<v Speaker 1>virtue signal to start with.

0:18:37.320 --> 0:18:39.960
<v Speaker 2>There's no reason Tesla should be the most valuable car

0:18:39.960 --> 0:18:42.239
<v Speaker 2>company in the world, no reason whatsoever, but it is

0:18:42.600 --> 0:18:47.240
<v Speaker 2>even today. And so much of that was I want

0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:49.520
<v Speaker 2>to be on the side of green energy and blah

0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:53.800
<v Speaker 2>blah blah. And if it was a virtue signal, now

0:18:53.840 --> 0:18:57.399
<v Speaker 2>that Elon is the number one MAGA supporter financially on

0:18:57.520 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 2>planet Earth, you know, took a lot of the fun

0:18:59.760 --> 0:19:03.040
<v Speaker 2>out for some people. Then you got Elon come in

0:19:03.040 --> 0:19:06.080
<v Speaker 2>and run doge and everything like that, and trying to

0:19:06.080 --> 0:19:08.800
<v Speaker 2>figure out, you know, just in his observer what his

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:11.800
<v Speaker 2>role is. He's not a cabinet secretary, how much power

0:19:11.880 --> 0:19:14.399
<v Speaker 2>does he have. Well, maybe we learned a little something

0:19:15.359 --> 0:19:17.800
<v Speaker 2>in the last couple of days. New York Times with

0:19:17.880 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 2>an article today, and you got to take everything the

0:19:19.560 --> 0:19:22.440
<v Speaker 2>New York Times writes with a grain of salt, because

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:24.320
<v Speaker 2>they've had a lot of crap over the years, but

0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:27.760
<v Speaker 2>this is not surprising. Inside the explosive meeting where Trump

0:19:27.760 --> 0:19:31.560
<v Speaker 2>officials clashed with Elon Musk, simmering anger at the billionaire's

0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:35.160
<v Speaker 2>unchecked power spilled out in a remarkable cabinet room meeting.

0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.280
<v Speaker 2>The President quickly moved to rain in, mister Musk, I

0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:43.160
<v Speaker 2>just think that opening phrase unchecked power. According to who,

0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.560
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't have any legitimate unchecked power. It doesn't even

0:19:46.680 --> 0:19:50.000
<v Speaker 2>legitimate power whatsoever. So how do you call it unchecked

0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:51.480
<v Speaker 2>if he doesn't actually have any power?

0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, and how do you know it's not being checked?

0:19:54.840 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that's just a crocker crap it is.

0:19:58.080 --> 0:20:01.120
<v Speaker 2>I'll read from the article Marco Rubio and sensed here

0:20:01.160 --> 0:20:02.960
<v Speaker 2>he was in the cabinet room of the White House,

0:20:03.000 --> 0:20:05.960
<v Speaker 2>the Secretary of State, seated beside the President and listening

0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:07.960
<v Speaker 2>to a litany of attacks from the richest man in

0:20:08.000 --> 0:20:10.520
<v Speaker 2>the world. All right, already, I'm pissed off at the

0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:13.120
<v Speaker 2>New York Times. Why do you always have to put

0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 2>why does everybody who hates Elon always have to point

0:20:16.560 --> 0:20:18.880
<v Speaker 2>out he's the richest man in the world. Why, I mean,

0:20:18.960 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 2>what are you trying to say with that phrase? I

0:20:21.760 --> 0:20:24.760
<v Speaker 2>think we all know, we do all know, and it's dumb.

0:20:25.320 --> 0:20:28.880
<v Speaker 2>You're trying to claim that because he's the richest man

0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:32.800
<v Speaker 2>in the world, we should be extra skeptical of his

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:33.840
<v Speaker 2>opinion or something.

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what the or assum's evil actually more interested? Well,

0:20:38.040 --> 0:20:40.320
<v Speaker 1>it's a very interesting thing, I'll grant that, But is

0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:43.280
<v Speaker 1>it really more interesting and more descriptive than the most

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:47.959
<v Speaker 1>innovative engineer of our generation, Oh, the most important figure

0:20:48.040 --> 0:20:51.480
<v Speaker 1>in space exploration since NASA? How about the man who

0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:55.040
<v Speaker 1>built the most valuable car company on Earth. The sheer

0:20:55.200 --> 0:20:58.679
<v Speaker 1>fact of his wealth ain't the significant part to me.

0:20:59.000 --> 0:21:03.679
<v Speaker 2>No, I was telling and it's interesting, my uh, I

0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:05.560
<v Speaker 2>have to keep my voice done because he's right out there.

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:11.800
<v Speaker 2>My seventh grader doesn't like Elon because of Elon's got

0:21:11.800 --> 0:21:13.760
<v Speaker 2>all these kids, and he has picked up on the

0:21:13.800 --> 0:21:16.200
<v Speaker 2>fat that the fact that Elon is clearly not being

0:21:16.200 --> 0:21:19.000
<v Speaker 2>a dad, yeah, and doesn't like him for that reason,

0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:22.360
<v Speaker 2>which you know, I understand, knocking him on that. I

0:21:22.400 --> 0:21:24.080
<v Speaker 2>was trying to explain to him, how yeah, I don't

0:21:24.119 --> 0:21:27.199
<v Speaker 2>like that at all either, But I think ultimately I

0:21:27.240 --> 0:21:30.200
<v Speaker 2>think Elon will be remembered hundreds of years from now

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.320
<v Speaker 2>in the same way that like Da Vinci's remembered, or

0:21:33.359 --> 0:21:35.399
<v Speaker 2>Isaac Newton or a variety of people. I think he

0:21:35.480 --> 0:21:40.440
<v Speaker 2>is that level of person. Where was I going with this? Oh? Yeah,

0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:43.880
<v Speaker 2>the whole richest man in the world. Whatever, Unless I'm

0:21:44.080 --> 0:21:46.040
<v Speaker 2>just reading too much into it, I feel like it's

0:21:46.040 --> 0:21:49.040
<v Speaker 2>always used as a pejorative, like he's the richest man

0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:51.600
<v Speaker 2>in the world, So give him extra scrutiny, because there's

0:21:51.640 --> 0:21:53.440
<v Speaker 2>no way you'd become the richest man in the world

0:21:53.560 --> 0:21:58.000
<v Speaker 2>without being evil on some level. You weird anti capitalist

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:03.320
<v Speaker 2>nut jobs. Anyway, back to the article. Seated diagonally opposite

0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:08.320
<v Speaker 2>from Marco Rubio across the elliptical mahogany table, Elon Musk

0:22:08.400 --> 0:22:11.040
<v Speaker 2>was letting mister Rubio have it, accusing him of failing

0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:14.200
<v Speaker 2>to slash his staff. You have fired nobody, mister Musk

0:22:14.280 --> 0:22:17.400
<v Speaker 2>told Rubio, then scornfully added that perhaps the only person

0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:19.760
<v Speaker 2>he had fired was a staff member from his Department

0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:24.080
<v Speaker 2>of Government Efficiency. Mister Rubio had been privately furious with

0:22:24.119 --> 0:22:27.680
<v Speaker 2>mister Musk for weeks, ever since his DOGE team effectively

0:22:27.720 --> 0:22:31.600
<v Speaker 2>shuddered an entired agency that was supposedly under mister Rubio's control.

0:22:31.960 --> 0:22:36.280
<v Speaker 2>That's the United States Agency for International Development, that USAID thing,

0:22:36.800 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 2>because that's supposed to be run by Rubio in the

0:22:39.960 --> 0:22:43.000
<v Speaker 2>State Department. But in the extraordinary cabinet meeting in front

0:22:43.040 --> 0:22:45.600
<v Speaker 2>of the President around twenty others, details of which have

0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:48.920
<v Speaker 2>not been reported before since the New York Times, mister

0:22:49.000 --> 0:22:52.280
<v Speaker 2>Rubio got his grievances off his chest. Mister Musk was

0:22:52.320 --> 0:22:54.919
<v Speaker 2>not being truthful. Rubio said, what about the more than

0:22:54.960 --> 0:22:58.080
<v Speaker 2>fifteen hundred State Department officials who took early retirement in buyouts?

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:01.520
<v Speaker 2>Didn't they count his layoffs? He asks, sarcastically whether mister

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Musk wanted him to rehire all those people just so

0:23:04.200 --> 0:23:06.520
<v Speaker 2>he could make a show of firing them again. Then

0:23:06.520 --> 0:23:09.560
<v Speaker 2>he laid out his detailed plans for reorganizing the State Department.

0:23:11.240 --> 0:23:14.280
<v Speaker 2>Musk was unimpressed. He told mister Rubio he was good

0:23:14.320 --> 0:23:17.360
<v Speaker 2>on TV, with clear subtext being that he wasn't good

0:23:17.359 --> 0:23:20.520
<v Speaker 2>for much else. Throughout all this, the President sat back

0:23:20.560 --> 0:23:22.560
<v Speaker 2>in his chair, arms folded, as if he were watching

0:23:22.600 --> 0:23:28.239
<v Speaker 2>a tennis match. Wow, which is sometimes good bosson as

0:23:28.280 --> 0:23:30.919
<v Speaker 2>he let you know, people fight it out, kind of

0:23:30.960 --> 0:23:32.960
<v Speaker 2>observe what's going on here.

0:23:33.600 --> 0:23:35.800
<v Speaker 1>Let's let off steam and then talk about it. Yeah,

0:23:35.840 --> 0:23:37.520
<v Speaker 1>that part does not.

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:40.240
<v Speaker 2>Ring fictional to me. I believe all of this.

0:23:41.160 --> 0:23:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Part of the totality of Elon Musk is undoubtedly his

0:23:46.320 --> 0:23:53.000
<v Speaker 1>autism and his quirks. He is not like Steve Jobs

0:23:53.040 --> 0:23:56.399
<v Speaker 1>in a lot of ways. But some of the great

0:23:56.480 --> 0:24:01.040
<v Speaker 1>geniuses who've altered history and technology have been extremely difficult

0:24:01.080 --> 0:24:04.080
<v Speaker 1>to work with. And not just because you couldn't keep

0:24:04.160 --> 0:24:06.119
<v Speaker 1>up with their genius. No, it's because they're a holes.

0:24:06.960 --> 0:24:11.240
<v Speaker 1>It's because they either don't care about other people's lives

0:24:11.359 --> 0:24:13.560
<v Speaker 1>and feelings and the rest of it, or they're not

0:24:13.640 --> 0:24:14.399
<v Speaker 1>capable of it.

0:24:15.119 --> 0:24:18.520
<v Speaker 2>So, yeah, this does not strike me as nutty. After

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:21.359
<v Speaker 2>the argument dragged on for an uncomfortable time, mister Trump

0:24:21.400 --> 0:24:24.760
<v Speaker 2>finally intervened to defend mister Rubio is doing a great job.

0:24:25.320 --> 0:24:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Mister Rubio has a lot to deal with, the President said,

0:24:27.720 --> 0:24:30.040
<v Speaker 2>he's very busy, he's always traveling on TV, and he

0:24:30.080 --> 0:24:32.439
<v Speaker 2>had an agency to run, so everyone just needs to

0:24:32.480 --> 0:24:36.280
<v Speaker 2>work together. The meeting was a potential inflection point after

0:24:36.320 --> 0:24:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the frenetic first weeks of mister Trump's second term. It

0:24:39.200 --> 0:24:42.560
<v Speaker 2>yielded the first significant indication that mister Trump is willing

0:24:42.600 --> 0:24:45.760
<v Speaker 2>to put some limits on mister Musk. Again, I think

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:49.080
<v Speaker 2>that's I think you on the left were acting like

0:24:49.800 --> 0:24:52.400
<v Speaker 2>he had free reign to do whatever he wanted. I'm

0:24:52.400 --> 0:24:55.040
<v Speaker 2>sure Trumpet never at any point thought Elon gets to

0:24:55.080 --> 0:24:58.840
<v Speaker 2>do whatever he wants. Musk, whose efforts have become the

0:24:58.880 --> 0:25:02.119
<v Speaker 2>subject of several lawsuits and prompted concerns from Republican lawmakers.

0:25:03.640 --> 0:25:06.640
<v Speaker 2>Cabinet officials almost uniformly like the concept of what mister

0:25:06.720 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Musk set out to do reducing waste, fraud and abusing government,

0:25:10.440 --> 0:25:12.679
<v Speaker 2>but had been frustrated by the hacksaw approach to up

0:25:12.760 --> 0:25:16.480
<v Speaker 2>ending the government and the lack of consistent coordination. We

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:21.040
<v Speaker 2>have hailed his approach to rocketry in that they fail

0:25:21.160 --> 0:25:25.760
<v Speaker 2>fast and learn faster. It's a different thing approaching government,

0:25:25.800 --> 0:25:31.000
<v Speaker 2>though for a variety of reasons. And there are aspects

0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:33.040
<v Speaker 2>of what he's done and how he's done it that

0:25:33.119 --> 0:25:37.520
<v Speaker 2>remind me of his rocketry stuff. And you can't always

0:25:38.040 --> 0:25:41.880
<v Speaker 2>adapt a methodology from one thing to another completely smoothly.

0:25:42.119 --> 0:25:45.680
<v Speaker 2>So again this strikes me is it sounds true and

0:25:46.000 --> 0:25:50.400
<v Speaker 2>it's not shocking, But the other reality of Elon Musk

0:25:50.440 --> 0:25:52.840
<v Speaker 2>in the way he does things is he learns from

0:25:52.920 --> 0:25:56.600
<v Speaker 2>it and adjusts. Last part I'll read Thursday's meeting, which

0:25:56.680 --> 0:26:00.440
<v Speaker 2>was abruptly scheduled on Wednesday evening, was it's a sign

0:26:00.440 --> 0:26:03.120
<v Speaker 2>that mister Trump is mindful of the growing complaints. I'll

0:26:03.119 --> 0:26:05.120
<v Speaker 2>bet all these people have gone to him said, dude,

0:26:05.119 --> 0:26:10.720
<v Speaker 2>you gotta do something about Elon being up my shorts. Yeah.

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:13.639
<v Speaker 2>Trump tried to offer each side something by praising both

0:26:13.720 --> 0:26:18.000
<v Speaker 2>mister Musk and his cabinet secretaries. At least one treachery secretary,

0:26:18.040 --> 0:26:21.200
<v Speaker 2>Scott Bessant, who has had tents encounters related to mister

0:26:21.280 --> 0:26:24.200
<v Speaker 2>Musk's team, was not president. The President made clear he

0:26:24.280 --> 0:26:27.120
<v Speaker 2>still supported Dog's mission, but now was the time, he said,

0:26:27.160 --> 0:26:29.240
<v Speaker 2>to be a bit more refined in the approach. From

0:26:29.280 --> 0:26:31.920
<v Speaker 2>now on, Trump said the secretaries would be in charge,

0:26:32.400 --> 0:26:34.119
<v Speaker 2>as you just heard in that last clip, and the

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.440
<v Speaker 2>Musk team would only advise. So he said that out

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:39.400
<v Speaker 2>loud in front of Musk and all the secretaries. From

0:26:39.400 --> 0:26:44.000
<v Speaker 2>now on, Doge advises secretaries are in charge of who

0:26:44.000 --> 0:26:47.520
<v Speaker 2>gets laid off, fired, lectured, whatever.

0:26:48.840 --> 0:26:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Interesting, Right, Yeah, yeah, all right, I am not troubled

0:26:56.640 --> 0:27:00.320
<v Speaker 1>by all right, a little too much, too fast, rained

0:27:00.359 --> 0:27:03.440
<v Speaker 1>it in a little bit as oppose to the exact opposite, which.

0:27:03.240 --> 0:27:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Has existed for a generation. Doesn't bother me either. Mister Musk,

0:27:06.320 --> 0:27:08.840
<v Speaker 2>who wore a suit and tie to Thursday's meeting instead

0:27:08.880 --> 0:27:11.680
<v Speaker 2>of his usual T shirt after mister Trump publicly ribbed

0:27:11.720 --> 0:27:16.800
<v Speaker 2>him about his sloppy appearance, defended himself by saying that

0:27:16.840 --> 0:27:19.080
<v Speaker 2>he has three companies with a market cap of tens

0:27:19.080 --> 0:27:21.760
<v Speaker 2>of billions of dollars and that his results speak for themselves.

0:27:22.119 --> 0:27:26.000
<v Speaker 2>He must have been feeling a little cornered to have

0:27:26.119 --> 0:27:34.840
<v Speaker 2>to throw that out there. Yes, yeah, I My guess

0:27:34.880 --> 0:27:39.679
<v Speaker 2>would be just from what I know of Elon, And

0:27:39.720 --> 0:27:42.680
<v Speaker 2>I keep meaning to read that Walter Isacson book, because

0:27:42.680 --> 0:27:47.879
<v Speaker 2>Walter Isacson got to follow Elon around for weeks and months,

0:27:48.000 --> 0:27:49.639
<v Speaker 2>and I just want to know more about the way

0:27:49.680 --> 0:27:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Elon works. Elon seems to flip from thing to thing,

0:27:52.400 --> 0:27:54.639
<v Speaker 2>which he gets to do, and like he gets super

0:27:54.680 --> 0:27:56.600
<v Speaker 2>into like the new Tesla thing, and then I think

0:27:56.600 --> 0:27:58.160
<v Speaker 2>he gets bored with it. Now I wonder what's going

0:27:58.200 --> 0:27:59.919
<v Speaker 2>on with the Rocket company, and then I wonder how

0:28:00.000 --> 0:28:02.639
<v Speaker 2>are doing with the chips and the monkey brains, And

0:28:02.760 --> 0:28:06.200
<v Speaker 2>I just think either out of Okay, fine, you don't

0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:07.560
<v Speaker 2>like the way I'm doing it, I'm gonna go over

0:28:07.600 --> 0:28:12.159
<v Speaker 2>here and work on chips and monkey brains. I just

0:28:12.160 --> 0:28:14.800
<v Speaker 2>think at some point he's gonna be He's gonna hand

0:28:14.840 --> 0:28:16.359
<v Speaker 2>it off to somebody, and you're not gonna hear much

0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:19.240
<v Speaker 2>from Elon. He ain't gonna be around DC all the time. Right.

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, I suspect so too. You know, another way

0:28:23.040 --> 0:28:27.160
<v Speaker 1>to look at this couple of things. I remember in

0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:30.280
<v Speaker 1>school I used to hate when we had to do

0:28:30.320 --> 0:28:33.880
<v Speaker 1>group projects. And this is this is not some sort

0:28:33.880 --> 0:28:36.600
<v Speaker 1>of weird, humble brag, but it always was the case

0:28:36.680 --> 0:28:39.560
<v Speaker 1>that it would slow me down.

0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:40.240
<v Speaker 2>You know.

0:28:40.400 --> 0:28:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Later in life, as you know, I got to choose

0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:46.040
<v Speaker 1>who I worked with and all it became like a

0:28:46.160 --> 0:28:49.560
<v Speaker 1>privilege and great to work with other people with great ideas,

0:28:49.720 --> 0:28:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and but in school, especially when you're randomly assigned, you know,

0:28:54.280 --> 0:28:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I can do this a lot faster and a lot

0:28:55.760 --> 0:28:58.680
<v Speaker 1>better if I don't have to, you know, include you. Anyway,

0:28:58.960 --> 0:29:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Elon Musk has that personality to his core because he's

0:29:04.000 --> 0:29:09.760
<v Speaker 1>like unspeakably brilliant and mind bogglingly energetic. So I get

0:29:09.760 --> 0:29:12.520
<v Speaker 1>that one hundred percent, and you can make that work

0:29:12.560 --> 0:29:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Steve jobs in a private corporation. But the very nature

0:29:16.160 --> 0:29:21.320
<v Speaker 1>of our government, with the three branches of government, and

0:29:21.360 --> 0:29:26.920
<v Speaker 1>then the layers of how they function within each branch,

0:29:27.040 --> 0:29:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and then how they interrelate. You cannot have a mad

0:29:31.000 --> 0:29:34.840
<v Speaker 1>genius run that the way he runs SpaceX.

0:29:35.320 --> 0:29:37.520
<v Speaker 2>You just can't. Those of us. On the other end

0:29:37.600 --> 0:29:40.440
<v Speaker 2>of the personality spectrum, you get into a group setting

0:29:40.440 --> 0:29:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and you got some gung hole person like Joe, and

0:29:42.720 --> 0:29:44.840
<v Speaker 2>you think he usually gets good greates feel free. Yeah,

0:29:44.840 --> 0:29:46.600
<v Speaker 2>you knock yourself out, and I'll sit here and stare

0:29:46.600 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 2>at my zipper while you do all the work and

0:29:48.160 --> 0:29:51.680
<v Speaker 2>are going to be also and awesome, not even out

0:29:51.720 --> 0:30:00.280
<v Speaker 2>the window at the birds. We all finish strong next.

0:30:01.000 --> 0:30:03.680
<v Speaker 6>Pro Palestinian protesters really think they're in charge.

0:30:03.680 --> 0:30:03.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:30:03.960 --> 0:30:05.760
<v Speaker 6>They think they can go to the Dean, go to

0:30:05.800 --> 0:30:08.120
<v Speaker 6>the president of these Ivy League universities and tell them

0:30:08.240 --> 0:30:10.400
<v Speaker 6>they have a long list of demands, saying they're not

0:30:10.440 --> 0:30:12.640
<v Speaker 6>going to stop until they get what they want. Even

0:30:12.640 --> 0:30:15.120
<v Speaker 6>though President Trump is threatened to pull that funding and

0:30:15.160 --> 0:30:18.560
<v Speaker 6>throw those agitators behind bars, the chaos continues. The students

0:30:18.600 --> 0:30:20.800
<v Speaker 6>who have their faces covered all the time with the

0:30:20.840 --> 0:30:24.440
<v Speaker 6>headscarf set up what they called a liberation zone inside

0:30:24.440 --> 0:30:28.200
<v Speaker 6>of the library at Barnard College, chanting Free Palestine and

0:30:28.240 --> 0:30:31.760
<v Speaker 6>blocking the doors for how long? At least four hours.

0:30:31.760 --> 0:30:32.800
<v Speaker 2>Students who pay.

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:36.360
<v Speaker 6>Big money intuition couldn't even get inside to studies.

0:30:36.600 --> 0:30:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Wow, I'm always going on about how badly we need

0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:42.440
<v Speaker 1>to reform the university system.

0:30:42.480 --> 0:30:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we just stand back. Yeah, no kidding, let it

0:30:46.040 --> 0:30:49.280
<v Speaker 2>tear itself down. My first thought on hearing that if

0:30:49.280 --> 0:30:51.000
<v Speaker 2>I was the dean, you see, the thing you always

0:30:51.000 --> 0:30:53.040
<v Speaker 2>got to remember about these stories is the dean agrees

0:30:53.080 --> 0:30:55.400
<v Speaker 2>with them. That's why this goes on. But if I

0:30:55.480 --> 0:30:57.280
<v Speaker 2>were the dean, they come in there and they say,

0:30:57.280 --> 0:30:58.400
<v Speaker 2>here's our list of demands.

0:30:58.440 --> 0:31:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I think, okay, good for you, and here's my list

0:31:01.360 --> 0:31:06.560
<v Speaker 1>of responses. One middle finger, two middle fingers, knock yourself out,

0:31:06.760 --> 0:31:08.720
<v Speaker 1>hand me the demands, and if you don't meet them

0:31:08.720 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>by midnight tonight, we're gonna okay, well, if you block

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:13.680
<v Speaker 1>the doors of the library, we're gonna kick out of school.

0:31:14.120 --> 0:31:14.640
<v Speaker 8>The end.

0:31:15.120 --> 0:31:16.240
<v Speaker 2>That's the end of the.

0:31:16.200 --> 0:31:19.680
<v Speaker 1>Discussion, right right, Stephen Miller, We've got the clip, But

0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:22.320
<v Speaker 1>why bother, he says, Look, Trump's made it clear, expel

0:31:22.400 --> 0:31:24.840
<v Speaker 1>these students are you're gonna lose the funding. And I

0:31:24.880 --> 0:31:27.840
<v Speaker 1>don't know exactly what that enforcement mechanism looks like, but

0:31:27.960 --> 0:31:31.840
<v Speaker 1>by Gully, we have let our university system go completely

0:31:32.040 --> 0:31:32.520
<v Speaker 1>seeking up.

0:31:32.520 --> 0:31:35.200
<v Speaker 2>You wouldn't say so if you got students going to

0:31:35.280 --> 0:31:37.920
<v Speaker 2>the dean and say here's our list of demands and

0:31:37.960 --> 0:31:40.640
<v Speaker 2>you must meet them, and the dan acts like he

0:31:40.880 --> 0:31:43.760
<v Speaker 2>needs to like that. If you saw the video, is

0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:47.880
<v Speaker 2>this I think the same dean from Barnard asking permission

0:31:47.920 --> 0:31:49.720
<v Speaker 2>to go to the bathroom when he was being held

0:31:49.760 --> 0:31:53.800
<v Speaker 2>against his will a couple of weeks ago. What that

0:31:53.880 --> 0:31:55.960
<v Speaker 2>ought to be known from coast to coast.

0:31:56.280 --> 0:31:59.520
<v Speaker 1>People ought to know in every burg in America that

0:31:59.520 --> 0:32:02.800
<v Speaker 1>that happened and and understand what it means, because that's

0:32:02.840 --> 0:32:05.280
<v Speaker 1>a power symbol, but powerful symbol. But so much of

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:08.280
<v Speaker 1>the media is uncomfortable reporting this. Oh and on that topic,

0:32:08.600 --> 0:32:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I have laid out a couple of times the thought,

0:32:12.200 --> 0:32:15.520
<v Speaker 1>the question the request that I can't picture any result

0:32:15.560 --> 0:32:19.520
<v Speaker 1>to the Israel Hamas thing other than the complete annihilation

0:32:19.600 --> 0:32:26.880
<v Speaker 1>of Hamas and Israeli control over the Palestinian territories or

0:32:26.960 --> 0:32:31.840
<v Speaker 1>a massive change in the leadership among Palestinians. And nobody's

0:32:31.880 --> 0:32:35.040
<v Speaker 1>ever said no, Joe, here's what you're missing. Nobody has

0:32:35.120 --> 0:32:38.080
<v Speaker 1>ever responded to that. If you'd like to mail bag

0:32:38.120 --> 0:32:39.600
<v Speaker 1>at armstrong ineddy dot com.

0:32:39.720 --> 0:32:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I believe in a two states solution.

0:32:41.680 --> 0:32:55.600
<v Speaker 8>Oh strong Strong Strong.

0:32:56.680 --> 0:32:59.480
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's good. Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

0:32:59.720 --> 0:33:01.680
<v Speaker 1>Hey, le's get a final thought from everybody on the crew.

0:33:01.760 --> 0:33:03.120
<v Speaker 1>To wrap things up for the day. In the week,

0:33:03.120 --> 0:33:05.000
<v Speaker 1>there is our technical director, Michelangelo.

0:33:05.080 --> 0:33:05.360
<v Speaker 2>Michael.

0:33:05.640 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 4>Well, my dad shared the same birthday as your son, Jack,

0:33:08.720 --> 0:33:10.760
<v Speaker 4>And as a tribute to my dad, I'm gonna eat

0:33:10.800 --> 0:33:14.000
<v Speaker 4>some maybe prime reb or Mexican food. I'm just glad

0:33:14.040 --> 0:33:16.400
<v Speaker 4>he had good taste that you know, he didn't eat

0:33:16.440 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 4>liver or something that would have been a bummer.

0:33:18.880 --> 0:33:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh, agreed, Katie Greener esteemed Newswoman As a final thought, Katie, I.

0:33:23.440 --> 0:33:25.840
<v Speaker 6>Just opened my new slip on knee braces for the gym,

0:33:25.880 --> 0:33:27.320
<v Speaker 6>and I just have to tell you, guys, I am so.

0:33:27.320 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Relieved that they came with a user manual, actually instructions

0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:33.800
<v Speaker 2>on how to use your knee brace. You slip it

0:33:33.840 --> 0:33:38.200
<v Speaker 2>on over your knee. I see that's it, but there's more.

0:33:38.800 --> 0:33:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Huh okay, Jack, a final thought? Uh yeah, make it

0:33:43.280 --> 0:33:46.320
<v Speaker 2>about me. I became a parent fifteen years ago today,

0:33:46.640 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 2>best decision I ever made. I can't imagine my life

0:33:49.280 --> 0:33:54.400
<v Speaker 2>without it. Uh yeah, here here. My final thought is

0:33:56.520 --> 0:33:59.800
<v Speaker 2>all right, have one.

0:34:00.040 --> 0:34:02.320
<v Speaker 1>App up and thinking about the university system because I'm

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:03.200
<v Speaker 1>so bothered by it.

0:34:03.200 --> 0:34:06.600
<v Speaker 2>I didn't get to it mentally, Joe Getty worn down

0:34:06.640 --> 0:34:10.040
<v Speaker 2>by life. We are partly wow.

0:34:11.480 --> 0:34:14.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm frustrated my golf game got canceled tomorrow. I'm not

0:34:14.640 --> 0:34:16.239
<v Speaker 1>gonna play with a buddy of mine, but it got

0:34:16.280 --> 0:34:16.839
<v Speaker 1>screwed up.

0:34:17.360 --> 0:34:20.840
<v Speaker 2>I'm taking my birthday boy oldest son and a couple

0:34:20.840 --> 0:34:22.800
<v Speaker 2>of his friends on a little birthday outing tonight, and

0:34:22.800 --> 0:34:24.400
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna have a really good time and want me

0:34:24.480 --> 0:34:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to not be around. I have a feeling armstrong and

0:34:27.560 --> 0:34:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Getty wrapping up another grueling four hour workday.

0:34:30.320 --> 0:34:33.280
<v Speaker 1>So many people to thank, so many generations not getting

0:34:33.320 --> 0:34:36.960
<v Speaker 1>their kids' musical choices. Good armstrong ageddy dot com. We

<v Speaker 2>God bless America. Armstrong and Getty. We're unquestionably in poor

<v Speaker 2>taste and.

0:34:59.440 --> 0:35:03.880
<v Speaker 3>You know what, everybody knows it.

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:05.880
<v Speaker 2>They need to tone it down. And I think I

0:35:05.960 --> 0:35:08.040
<v Speaker 2>have the power to end this. Doesn't that sounds crazy? Well,

0:35:08.080 --> 0:35:10.040
<v Speaker 2>first of all, I'll show you whatever part you want

0:35:10.080 --> 0:35:12.640
<v Speaker 2>to see for a five spot. If there's any demand,

0:35:13.160 --> 0:35:16.480
<v Speaker 2>give you a ten. That's what I'll do. With one

0:35:16.520 --> 0:35:23.080
<v Speaker 2>final message that great Friday, Armstrong and Gaddy
