I am six forty. 2 00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,560 Speaker 2: You're listening to the John Cobelt Podcast on the iHeartRadio app. 3 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:08,799 Speaker 2: We're on every day from one until four o'clock and 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,479 Speaker 2: after four o'clock John Cobelt's show on demand on the 5 00:00:12,520 --> 00:00:15,319 Speaker 2: iHeart app. It's the podcast and that's where you listen 6 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,400 Speaker 2: to what you missed every day.

By the way, it's a lovely 11 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 2: leopard jacket you have on. 12 00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 3: Well, thank you. 13 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 1: I did want to take ten seconds to dollins. 14 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,960 Speaker 4: I appreciate that. Yeah, I need to wear more leopard. 15 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:38,600 Speaker 4: It makes me happy. 16 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: You should send out a photo of that. 17 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 3: I should. 18 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:45,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you'll get a lot of likes today. You know, 19 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: the world not the world. This country is slowly coming 20 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:54,120 Speaker 2: out of the woke nightmare. Not here in California. We 21 00:00:54,160 --> 00:01:00,520 Speaker 2: are still under siege here with excessive wokeness, and there 22 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 2: is no safe level of wokeness. All wokeness is successive 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:10,759 Speaker 2: and destructive and grossly irritating. But on a national level, 24 00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,760 Speaker 2: the tide is ebbing, it's getting better. And there was 25 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 2: a big step forward today in Quantico where Pete Hegseth, 26 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 2: the Secretary of War. 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: You did hear that we no longer have a defense department. 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 4: I've been saying defense department. Officially, it's the Defense Department. 29 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 4: Unofficially it's the Department of War. 30 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: The Department of War. 31 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 2: So heg Sath, Trump and all the rest of them 32 00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: are going with Department of War and he's the Secretary 33 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 2: of War. And you know, that was the first indication 34 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 2: that the world is going to be different. And he 35 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 2: asked that all the generals, all these high ranking military 36 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: officials all convened together at Quantaico, and he was giving 37 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 2: like a state of the Military address because he you know, 38 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 2: they ultimately it's you have civilian leaders in charge of 39 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 2: the military operation. So he's at the top of the 40 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 2: food chain, and he reports to Trump and he did 41 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 2: what should have been done like thirty years ago, and 42 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 2: none of this should have ever happened, even for a day. 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: But he's bringing back the highest standards physically that you 44 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,880 Speaker 2: need to have if you're going to fight a war 45 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 2: and defeat all the evil enemies. Now, this is probably 46 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 2: the most UNPC speech you're ever going to hear, in fact, 47 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 2: except you know, this is the way life was up 48 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: until some years ago, where it gradually crept in and 49 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 2: infected everything. And he went for it, talking about what 50 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,840 Speaker 2: type of physical appearances are not going to be tolerated 51 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 2: in soldiers anymore. We're sailors or pilots, all of it. 52 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,079 Speaker 2: So let's start. Uh, he sets it up this way, 53 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,640 Speaker 2: We're gonna go with cut five. This is heg Seth 54 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: saying that too many military military leaders were promoted for 55 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 2: the wrong reasons. 56 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: For too long. 57 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 5: We've promoted too many uniform leaders for the wrong reasons, 58 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 5: based on their race, based on gender quotas, based on historics, 59 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 5: so called firsts. We've pretended that combat arms and non 60 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 5: combat arms are the same thing. We've weeded out so 61 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 5: called toxic leaders under the guise of double blind psychology assessments, 62 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 5: promoting risk averse go along to get along conformists instead. 63 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 1: You name it. The department did it. Foolish and reckless political. 64 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 5: Leaders set the wrong compass heading and we lost our way. 65 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:04,040 Speaker 1: We became the woke Department, but not anymore the woke Department. 66 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: And that's what it was because everybody, including military leaders, 67 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 2: were afraid of their own shadow, afraid of anything they said, 68 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,120 Speaker 2: any suggestion they made, any policy they made that wouldn't 69 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: stand up to the Wolke Gestapo, who were lurking everywhere 70 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: waiting to look for new victims that they could capture 71 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,440 Speaker 2: and kill. And when you breed an entire culture like that, 72 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 2: you're going to get a lot of a timid, frightened 73 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: people because it's this whole era is defined by everybody 74 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 2: being afraid to say what was obvious in front of 75 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: their eyes. Now he really gets into it. This is 76 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 2: probably my favorite cut number six. 77 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 5: This administration has done a great deal from day one 78 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 5: to remove the social justice, politically correct, and toxic ideological garbage. 79 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: That had infected our department. To rip out the politics. 80 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:05,719 Speaker 5: No more identity months, dei offices, dudes in dresses, no 81 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 5: more climate change worship, no more division distraction or gender delusions, 82 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,560 Speaker 5: no more debris. 83 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 1: As I've said before. 84 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 5: And we'll say again, we are done with that. 85 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,720 Speaker 2: That's right, no more dudes in dresses. We're trying to 86 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:28,680 Speaker 2: kill people. We're trying to kill people and destroy buildings. 87 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: That's what the Department of War is, and you have 88 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 2: to have that even if you're the most pacifist person 89 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 2: in the world. You know, maybe you're a timid pacifist vegan. 90 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 5: It excuse me, Probably done with that. 91 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 3: As I'm chomping on an apple. 92 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: Yes, we are. 93 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 5: Done with that. 94 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 2: Okay, we're done with it all right now, he continued, 95 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 2: and he honed in on physical fitness and appearance. Let's 96 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:04,640 Speaker 2: do cut number ten. 97 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: Ten. 98 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 5: It all starts with physical fitness and appearance. If the 99 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 5: Secretary of War can do regular hard PT so can 100 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 5: every member of our joint force. 101 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: Frankly, it's tiring. 102 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 5: To look out at combat formations or really any formation 103 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 5: and see fat troops. Likewise, it's completely unacceptable to see 104 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 5: fat generals and admirals in the halls of the Pentagon. Yeah, 105 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 5: and leading commands around the country in the world. It's 106 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 5: a bad look. It is bad and it's not who 107 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 5: we are. So whether you're an airborne ranger or a 108 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 5: chairborne ranger, a brand new private or a four star general, 109 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 5: you need to meet the height and weight standards and 110 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 5: pass the PT. 111 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: Tests PTS for physical training. Wow, did you ever think 112 00:06:49,400 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 2: you'd hear this again? In fact, you never used to 113 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 2: hear it, because it was just assumed you got in 114 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,160 Speaker 2: the military, you had to be in the finest physical 115 00:06:56,200 --> 00:07:00,960 Speaker 2: condition possible, and then suddenly nothing mattered. By the way, 116 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: this translates to a lot of lines of work. One 117 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: of the worst things about the woke era is turned 118 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: on the TV and seeing like some Victoria Secret special 119 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 2: and having all these large, overfed women wobbling down the runway. No, 120 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: but nobody wanted to. Nobody wants to see that. No 121 00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 2: they don't. I didn't know a single guy who said, Wow, 122 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 2: that's hot, Hey, give me. 123 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 1: More of that. 124 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 4: Actually, I think some people actually like heavier women or 125 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:30,800 Speaker 4: heavier men. 126 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 3: There are people out there, you know. Look, we have furrees, right. 127 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 4: I'm not saying like the overfed, as you call them people. 128 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:40,880 Speaker 4: I'm just saying to each their own right. 129 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: Right, for each his own, but on a like on 130 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 2: a as far as the standard right, I mean, the 131 00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:51,239 Speaker 2: term is model. The definition model is that's that's the ideal, 132 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:53,480 Speaker 2: that's what everybody should aspire to. 133 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 3: Still figured models, right, didn't that come out? 134 00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 2: And that the CEO they had all there's all kinds 135 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 2: of stuff. There's there's a body the positive body positivity movement, 136 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 2: the fat acceptance movement. It's a quote big Pete, hex seth. 137 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 2: It's all bulbly, it's it's just all nonsense, Pete. Human 138 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 2: nature naturally is drawn to attractive people. That's just the 139 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 2: way we are. And that's why for one hundred years, 140 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 2: actors and actresses were fit and attractive generally, and then 141 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: you had, you know, the odd ball characters and sitcoms 142 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 2: who might be you know, a tad over fed or unsightly. 143 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 3: What about the dad bods. That's a craze too, right. 144 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that that's I mean, men get more leeway, yeah. 145 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:41,720 Speaker 3: Which really sucks. 146 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 6: I'd like to point that out, but I I know 147 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 6: no woman is really happy with with you know, if 148 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 6: they've got I mean everybody I know, if they start 149 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 6: gaining weight, their wives are the first ones to get 150 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 6: on their case. 151 00:08:56,800 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: You know. 152 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 2: No wife looks at their husband and say, yeah, it's cool, 153 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 2: you got an extra forty pounds there. 154 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 1: Nobody. 155 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 2: So it's always been that way, men versus women, women 156 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 2: versus men, because that's the way we're and and it's. 157 00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: Unhealthy, and that's why we have so many eating disorders 158 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 4: out there because we all, we all try to to 159 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,760 Speaker 4: be thin because of what. 160 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 2: You're saying, you have an eating disorder because you're nuts. 161 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 2: Not necessarily, it's not that hard to moderate your intake. 162 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,079 Speaker 4: Actually it is. I'm hungry all the time.

She was the president, 177 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 2: and she got into a big argument. It's like, stop it, 178 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:12,440 Speaker 2: all right, do whatever you want. 179 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: That's what I was going to say.

Everybody knows that 209 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: sports are not racially balanced, clearly, and nobody asked for that, 210 00:11:41,960 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: because then you'd watch a lot of bad basketball or 211 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 2: a lot of bad baseball. I'm tired of seeing bad modeling. Next, 212 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:52,199 Speaker 2: Seth is tired of seeing bad soldiers. 213 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,720 Speaker 4: You don't have to look right if you don't like 214 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,960 Speaker 4: the way somebody looks, Oh you don't, you don't have to. 215 00:11:58,080 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 3: You don't have to stare. 216 00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 2: Became like a religion, though, it's like forced on this. 217 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 2: All ready to take a break, Yes, we do more 218 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: coming up.

He convened every military leader that could 223 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 2: make it to Quantico, a huge auditorium, and he told 224 00:12:30,280 --> 00:12:36,040 Speaker 2: everybody that the days of woke are over, and there's 225 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 2: going to be strict physical fitness guidelines that you have 226 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 2: to meet, and women have to meet the same standards 227 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 2: as men. 228 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 1: Let's play cut thirteen. 229 00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 5: But when it comes to any job that requires physical 230 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 5: power to perform in combat. Those physical standards must be high. 231 00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 1: And gender neutral. 232 00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 5: If women can make it, excellent, If not, it is 233 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 5: what it is. If that means no women qualify for 234 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 5: some combat jobs, so be it. That is not the intent, 235 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 5: but it could be the result, so be it. It 236 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 5: will also that we mean that weak men won't qualify 237 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,720 Speaker 5: because we're not playing games. This is combat. This is 238 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 5: life or death, as we all know. This is you 239 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 5: versus an enemy hell bent on killing you. To be 240 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,240 Speaker 5: an effective lethal fighting force, you must trust that the 241 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:34,839 Speaker 5: warrior alongside you in battle is capable, truly physically capable of. 242 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: Doing what is necessary under fire. 243 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,560 Speaker 5: You know, this is the only standard you would want 244 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 5: for your kids and for your grandkids. 245 00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: Do you think fighting all those terrorists in the Middle 246 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 2: East and in Afghanistan and Iraq, do you really think 247 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 2: that their standards are this kind of nonsense, that they're 248 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:58,920 Speaker 2: worried about the having the proper representation of men and 249 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,920 Speaker 2: women and all the different races and ethnicities. I mean, 250 00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 2: we must have been a joke to the whole world 251 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: all this time. How can you possibly I mean, we've 252 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 2: got the best weapons, but as far as a philosophy, 253 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 2: it's actually embarrassing. What do you mean you don't send 254 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 2: out the most physically adept people into battle? That makes 255 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,320 Speaker 2: no sense.

It's directing to 495 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:58,240 Speaker 2: the point, have your law enforcement stop the attacks on 496 00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 2: the Ice building or I'm taking over the National Guard. 497 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 1: Oh if it's unwarranted and the legals stop it. 498 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,840 Speaker 2: I told you to end the violence at the Ice Building. 499 00:31:08,920 --> 00:31:09,479 Speaker 1: You didn't. 500 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 2: That's all you have to say. That's all you have 501 00:31:12,880 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 2: to do. And it's pretty clear it's her responsibility. This 502 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 2: is federal government property. You're supposed to help protect it. 503 00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 2: You're in the first line of defense. 504 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 7: Now. 505 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:26,160 Speaker 2: If you're not going to do it, that's the property 506 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 2: he's responsible for as president. And what Ice is doing 507 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:36,920 Speaker 2: is the law. So you don't have any leg to 508 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 2: stand on here. Yes, you normally run the National Guard, 509 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 2: but you're not using it or the Oregon State Police 510 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:48,840 Speaker 2: or local Portland police whoever you have got there. 511 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: They're not stopping. 512 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 2: They have caved in to these lunatic white rich kids 513 00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:02,000 Speaker 2: for five years who've done nothing but destroy Portland. I 514 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: saw a survey last year seventy five percent of people 515 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 2: of the Portland metropolitan area are scared to go to 516 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: downtown Portland. I bet you if you did that survey 517 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: here in LA, the percentage would be even higher. People 518 00:32:21,360 --> 00:32:23,959 Speaker 2: can't use the downtown they paid for, they can't enjoy it. 519 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:25,960 Speaker 2: They have to stay home, they have to avoid it, 520 00:32:25,960 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 2: they have to work around it. Now you've got, for 521 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 2: God's sakes, you can't get rid of it. You can't 522 00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:35,000 Speaker 2: care of these Antifa people once and for all. Really, 523 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:36,840 Speaker 2: you're going to be held hostage by a bunch of 524 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 2: snotty rich kids who are losers in life.

These 546 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:55,760 Speaker 2: are people with masters and doctorates. Now a lot of 547 00:33:55,800 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 2: it is a master doctorate in nonsense studies. You know, 548 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,720 Speaker 2: it probably has the word equity or diversity somewhere in there. 549 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 2: And then they went out into the world.
