I've always been a 13 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 2: big Pulitzer. 14 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 3: Prize fan, used to be anyway because it would it 15 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 3: would indicate some books I had to read. And the 16 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 3: list this year is I mean, they keep going further 17 00:01:01,400 --> 00:01:05,760 Speaker 3: down the road of virtue signaling with their prizes. 18 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 2: In the list this year is hilarious. 19 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: There's not an article, news, documentary, nonfiction, book, poem, anything 20 00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 3: that's not about illegal immigrants rights or trans rights or 21 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 3: something like that, not freaking up with Hamas. 22 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, there's not. Yah sin War's the chair. 23 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 3: Of the committee, now yeah yeah, or yeah exactly or 24 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 3: the up with the Palestinians. There's not a single thing 25 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 3: that's not an obvious political. 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 2: Nod, which is hilarious. Actually, I could go through the. 27 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 3: Credentials of the board that votes for the Pulitzer Prizes 28 00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 3: and it would become pretty obvious of how you end 29 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 3: up where you are. 30 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 2: But anyway, which brings us back to that great piece 31 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: of wisdom. 32 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 3: Every institution, unless it is avoutly conservative, over time becomes 33 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 3: more and more progressive. Yeah, it's too bad because I 34 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 3: used to really like it, as it would let you 35 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: know some journalism that you might have missed that it 36 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 3: was really good, or some books you'd never heard of 37 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:03,880 Speaker 3: that were fantastic. 38 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: But now it's ridiculous, like a lot of stuff. I 39 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 2: don't know why everything has to fall apart. It's very disappointed, 40 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 2: you know. The greatest is simple to understand. 41 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 3: Summary I've ever heard about what's going on like with 42 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 3: the Pelo Surprises and all of our institutions, colleges, et cetera, 43 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 3: is that you, as a radical, you use racism or 44 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,640 Speaker 3: sexism or transphobia to scare away the current leadership or 45 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 3: neutralize them. You take over the institution. Then you keep 46 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:33,359 Speaker 3: using the same language they used, so it's almost like 47 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 3: an invasion of the body snatchers thing. So it sounds 48 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 3: the same, it looks the same, but you completely pervert 49 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 3: its purpose. 50 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 2: And that's you know, that's like the pula surprises. Same thing. 51 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 3: No longer recognizes greatness and journalism and fiction poetry. It's 52 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 3: just pitching in particular political point of view. So I've 53 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 3: mentioned many times my favorite afternoon news show that I 54 00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 3: watch is Mark Alpern and it's on YouTube. It's not 55 00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,200 Speaker 3: on television anme or it's on YouTube. He has a 56 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,560 Speaker 3: couple of guests and he goes through the news of 57 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 3: the day, and I think it's the best news show 58 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 3: on TV or available. I don't even know what on 59 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,239 Speaker 3: TV means anymore. On my phone, it's the best news 60 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 3: show about old man. It's the best news show I 61 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: can find on my phone at you know, six o'clock 62 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: in the evening. Anyway, he was talking yesterday about how 63 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,239 Speaker 3: the lead story should always be the lead story. Whatever 64 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 3: the lead story is, should be the lead story, but 65 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 3: people don't do it that way. He had actually an 66 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 3: interesting anecdote if if you're old enough, maybe this was 67 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 3: the beginning of the end. He worked at ABC News 68 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 3: back in the early nineties. When, uh, Gladys, do you 69 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 3: still work here? No, No, that's wrong. You referencing a 70 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 3: historical event is not a reminiscence. The harp is for reminiscence. 71 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 3: You have the overstepped your authority. So this is a facism, 72 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:50,839 Speaker 3: Michael personal references. 73 00:03:51,240 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: This is fascism. You know you're right, Gladys, you know 74 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 2: what's on my side. 75 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 3: She couldn't hear me, so I don't have to apologize. Look, 76 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 3: she couldn't hear me because she's so old, glad. 77 00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I yelled. We all have our things. 78 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 3: See if you're we don't do this much early in 79 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 3: the show. So maybe if you listen usually earlier in 80 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 3: the show, you don't even know who Gladys is. She 81 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 3: sits over in the corner with the harp. And if 82 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 3: I would just say, I remember when I was in 83 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 3: high school, Gladys would play the harplink. Yeahs an indication 84 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 3: of run vet by the way, Yeah, she is a 85 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 3: worlding member of the staff. And because of that, she's 86 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: one shell shock two she can't hear and you yell 87 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 3: at her so insensitive, so I get her attention anyway, 88 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 3: you're right, I shouldn't have I shouldn't have sunned deck. 89 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: So back in the early nineties, ABC News was the 90 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: number one news program and had been a very for 91 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 3: a very very long time with Peter Jennings and Mark 92 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 3: Alpern used to work there, and Peter Jennings was really 93 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 3: big on the lead story is the lead story, and uh, 94 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 3: no matter what we are going to go with, what 95 00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 3: the lead story is Mark Halpern making the point that 96 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 3: the lead story every night right now is the war 97 00:04:57,040 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 3: in Iran. It's the number one story. Don't jam in 98 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 3: a missing woman or a fire somewhere or a video. 99 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 2: Of a plane hit in the top of a cab or. 100 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 3: Whatever the hell the lead store of whether the lead 101 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 3: story is the wow about cruise passengers getting the rat 102 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 3: poop fever, he would say, the war with Iran is 103 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 3: got the longest consequences for the most people, So that's 104 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,040 Speaker 3: the lead story. I agree with that, by the way, 105 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,599 Speaker 3: But he said they were the evening News. They were 106 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 3: in the number one story and their lead story was 107 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 3: warrener Rack at that time, and they did it every 108 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:36,200 Speaker 3: single night. NBC News, though with Tom Brokaw, decided to 109 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 3: start going with OJ every night as the lead story 110 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 3: overtook ABC News the number one newscast for like a decade. 111 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: NBC got vaulted the number one doing OJ every single night. 112 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 3: ABC never got ABC never got back to number one again. 113 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 3: So while one, you can hold on to your belief 114 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: that the lead story should be the lead story, but 115 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:00,679 Speaker 3: the proof of what's gonna get you the best rating 116 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 3: is to go with ojay or people dying of ratpoop 117 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 3: on a. 118 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: Boat, or a cool YouTube video or whatever. 119 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 3: Though damn, day after day after day of the plane 120 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:16,919 Speaker 3: that clipped the truck at JFK right, which is a 121 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 3: cool video but has no impact on anybody at all 122 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 3: other than did you see that cool video? God, do 123 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 3: we not have enough in our all of our worlds 124 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 3: of have you seen the cool video, whether it's Instagram, YouTube, Facebook, whatever, 125 00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 3: that we need to have it on the evening newscast. 126 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 2: Now see video. 127 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,039 Speaker 3: I think you may have just neutralized your protest. I 128 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 3: think the Evening News, in fact, I know the Evening 129 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:43,960 Speaker 3: News is now the refuge of ancients who don't know 130 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,919 Speaker 3: what YouTube is, and so they get their amusing videos 131 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,600 Speaker 3: on the Evening News. 132 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: Whatever the what you know? 133 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 3: Evening News morning news, your eight o'clock Facebook news page 134 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,359 Speaker 3: to whatever I would like it if the lead story 135 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 3: was the lead story all the time. But you know 136 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,680 Speaker 3: that ship has sailed with a bunch of people on 137 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 3: it that have haunt a virus. That our lead story 138 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 3: is the Epstein suicide note names five prominent Democrats. Is 139 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:19,080 Speaker 3: the fantasy headline of Republicans. But they will be disappointed 140 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 3: the Epstein suicide note. Yes, we will get to that later. 141 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,880 Speaker 3: What was my point with the lead story? Oh, just 142 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 3: getting us back to the war with Iran. That is 143 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 3: a very very big deal. How at the same time 144 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 3: that the poll numbers show everybody's got a bad attitude 145 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 3: about the economy and Trump and everything like that, and 146 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 3: then the news people will say driven by the war 147 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: with Iran. Yet so everybody's bad mood is driven by 148 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 3: the war with Iran, But you don't think the war 149 00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 3: with Iran is a story worth following. Okay, I'm not 150 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 3: sure I see how this fits together. Yeah, what's the 151 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 3: term I can't even remember? Refers to the fact that 152 00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 3: you can, especially online, monitor second by second how many 153 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 3: people are tuning in, tuning out, staying with you who 154 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 3: they are, et cetera. It's micro responsiveness. It's absolutely perverted 155 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 3: any you know, informational media because it's there's no leading, 156 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 3: which may sound slightly pretentious, but it shouldn't be if 157 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 3: you think about it. There's no informing people in leading them, 158 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 3: it's just reinforcing their current prejudices and attitudes and what 159 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,719 Speaker 3: they think they want to hear, which I get is 160 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 3: a business model, but it's just that's never been the 161 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 3: way human communication, mass communication works. It was never possible 162 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 3: for one thing, and I would suggest to you that 163 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 3: if you, for instance, parented your children in similar fashion, 164 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 3: there would be horrific results. 165 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 2: You just constantly pandered to their desires. Well, a lot 166 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 2: of our media is have we ever talked about this 167 00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 2: on the air? How we we even had? 168 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 3: We were meeting with a guy for a while where 169 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: they can look at the ratings, like Joe said, on 170 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,319 Speaker 3: a minute by minute basis, and this guy could look 171 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: at our like when we're talking like right now, and 172 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 3: see see right when Jack started mentioning his I don't 173 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,679 Speaker 3: know whatever his motorcycle ratings, some people tuned out. They 174 00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,199 Speaker 3: tuned over to the country music station. So don't talk 175 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 3: about your motorcycle. But when you talked about, you know whatever, 176 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 3: the missing duck. The ratings went up. So talk about 177 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,320 Speaker 3: missing ducks more often, not motorcycles, unless you ride your 178 00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 3: motorcycle to rescue a duck. 179 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 2: And the problem with that is, it was Joe pointed out. 180 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 2: But Joe's analogy has always been really good. 181 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 3: Just like, you know, if you're putting all the ingredients 182 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 3: in a chocolate cake, the chocolate and sugar, for instance, 183 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 3: people would like a lot, but the salt and the 184 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,160 Speaker 3: other things that are flavorless that you have to have 185 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 3: to make a cake would and he'd end up with 186 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 3: a bowl full of chocolate and sugar, which would not 187 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 3: be a cake, and you wouldn't like it that much. 188 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 2: Right, exactly. 189 00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 3: I've always liked peanut butter and jelly sandwiches as the analogy. 190 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: People really liked the jelly. We need to load it 191 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: up with jelly, lots and lots of jelly. In fact, 192 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:07,319 Speaker 3: just give people a giant bowl full of jelly. Then 193 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: they wonder the consultants why people don't listen anymore. 194 00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 2: It's pretty much what happened with raisin bran. People like 195 00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 2: the raisins. Now it's just a box of raisins. 196 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,200 Speaker 3: When can put a book on before you know it, 197 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 3: you're going like a goose could, which I could use. Frankly, 198 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:22,959 Speaker 3: we can get into detail on that later. We'll definitely 199 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 3: see the ratings drop if we do that. So let's 200 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 3: not okay, let's start the show officially. We are all 201 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 3: over the place. We've never gotten anything. I do want 202 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 3: to talk about the one page memorandum around the warn 203 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 3: Iran at some point that is known now whether or 204 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,600 Speaker 3: not they agree to it or not. Is this a 205 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 3: win for Iran or win for Trump. I've heard some 206 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,559 Speaker 3: of my favorite experts on both sides of this, so 207 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 3: we can get into that later. 208 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 2: We do have the Epstein note. 209 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: Anyway, starting the show officially, I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe 210 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 3: Getty on this.

Let's begin non pandering precisely according to 213 00:10:57,800 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 3: the FCC rules, Rags at Mark infection may have been Argentina, 214 00:11:01,960 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 3: where investigators say the leading theory is that a couple 215 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 3: caught the disease before boarding. 216 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 2: I've exposed a road and during. 217 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:14,640 Speaker 3: A bird watching tour that included a stop at a landfill. Oh, 218 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 3: that is something I will not be doing on my 219 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 3: upcoming grade. First of all, it's you bird watchers. I 220 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 3: know you're one of them. Got to watch out for 221 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: the bird watchers. They've got they've got some ulterio motive. 222 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 3: Always you got to watch out for. You gotta watch 223 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:29,880 Speaker 3: the bird. Who's gonna watch the bird watchers? 224 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 2: Has always been a r a motto of mine. 225 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 3: But a bunch of birdwatchers decided to go over to 226 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: the landfill and watch some birds and got the. 227 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 2: Antivirus from some rat poop. And that is cause this 228 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 2: beautiful plumage as they ate the garbage. Oh did you 229 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 2: get a shout of that? Oney? Why does it smell 230 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,080 Speaker 2: like this? As we followed the birds slowly, we are 231 00:11:52,120 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 2: now standing in the. 232 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 3: Midst of a landfill, a dump, if you will. Is 233 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 3: there such a thing as rat watching, because there are 234 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:03,440 Speaker 3: a lot of routes around here. Honey, let's become rat 235 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 3: watchers and we can write down in our little book. 236 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:11,920 Speaker 2: Saw another brown rat. This cough is a little persistent. 237 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:13,480 Speaker 2: I probably ought to see a doctor. 238 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 3: The most interesting thing of that story being hauntavirus. They 239 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:21,680 Speaker 3: believe being exchanged human to human, right Yeah, that's that 240 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 3: one weird strain that's rare but nasty. That's a big 241 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 3: deal and kills forty percent of people who get it. 242 00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:28,960 Speaker 2: Holy crap. 243 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, so we got to talk more about that later. 244 00:12:33,960 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 3: What a troubling story. Lots in the news today, and 245 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 3: I hope you can stick around and comment on it 246 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 3: and on our text line. We'll give you that number 247 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 3: when we come back. We've got headlines on the way, 248 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 3: lots of stuff today. 249 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:52,839 Speaker 2: Stay here. The tough thing about being an honest. 250 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:56,000 Speaker 3: Broker about the warn Iran is you got Trump constantly 251 00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 3: actually overstating things, obviously overstating things, and a mainstream media 252 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 3: that's rooting for a loss. So between those two things, 253 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 3: it's hard to find where we are. Yeah, and then 254 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 3: the one hundred percent of the time dishonesty of the 255 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 3: Iranian regime. So trying to read the tea leaves, I mean, 256 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 3: these are some tainted, nasty, deliberately fouled tea leaves. Good luck. 257 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 3: I suppose we can take a look at the headlines. 258 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm clicking around like a maniac. I just 259 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 3: mentioned mentioned to Jack off the air. I must I 260 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:34,120 Speaker 3: spent way too long like working and reading yesterday, I 261 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 3: sent myself like thirty different articles. Among one of the 262 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 3: more interesting is this that. And I'll preface this by saying, 263 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 3: don't ask a journalist what's happening with the economy and 264 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: people's pocket books. 265 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,679 Speaker 2: Ask a business person. For instance, the. 266 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:56,839 Speaker 3: CEO of craft Times, the people who sell us ketchups 267 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:01,839 Speaker 3: and sauces and all sorts of different basic foods. Their 268 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 3: new mantra is value. They've realized people are running out 269 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 3: of money by the end of the month, and they're 270 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 3: even doing things like offering smaller sizes. So if you've 271 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 3: only got two dollars for ketchup and not three point fifty, 272 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: you can get yourself. 273 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: A small bottle. I have to be very small. 274 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:24,520 Speaker 3: Well yeah, I mean they're cutting prices, boosting promotions, and 275 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 3: introducing smaller package sizes to appeal to cash strap consumers. 276 00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:32,600 Speaker 3: So it's the opposite of the cost co thing where 277 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 3: you spend more but less per unit and then you 278 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: got the mac and cheese from the next six months. 279 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,400 Speaker 3: Craft Hines is saying, no, people are really strapped right now. 280 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:45,160 Speaker 3: I found that pretty interesting, So it could hit you 281 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 3: at the usual big headlines about the Warner Ran and 282 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 3: a couple of different things, but I'm gonna hit you 283 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 3: with a couple of dumb headlines. This one Neil degrass 284 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 3: Tyson has a response to President Trump's vow to release 285 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 3: the UFO files. 286 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 2: There's a lot to knot care about there.

It's not fine, but certainly it's 339 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,639 Speaker 5: repugnant to the Christian understanding of the world and the 340 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 5: human soul. Every person has a soul. That's the Christian view, 341 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 5: and not just the Christian view, it's the Islamic view too. 342 00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 3: So the Christians and the Muslims have a good view 343 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: of the soul and whether or not you should murder, 344 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 3: innocence and all that sort of thing, not the Jews. 345 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 3: That's what Tucker Carlson's point is there. The Jews are 346 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 3: a different breed of evil, killing Palestinians for no good reason. 347 00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 3: Nothing to say about Hamas who they're about as Islammy 348 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 3: as you can get. According to them, well that was 349 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 3: just a masterclass and dishonest argument right there. 350 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 2: But I won't go into it. I can explain Tucker 351 00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:27,520 Speaker 2: pretty thoroughly in a few minutes. So this is a 352 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 2: heck of a thing. 353 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 3: First of all, realizing how old I am in the 354 00:18:32,440 --> 00:18:34,439 Speaker 3: last few minutes, says as doing a little research on 355 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,119 Speaker 3: Megan Kelly. Do you know how long ago Megan Kelly 356 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 3: left Fox? It's just short of twenty years ago. No, yes, 357 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 3: she left Fox in twenty seventeen. 358 00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 2: Oh that's ten years ago. Thank god, ninety. I had 359 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 2: it wrong. 360 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 3: Well, well, it's coming up on a decade here pretty quick. 361 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 3: But when she announced she was leaving. But yeah, thank 362 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 3: god I was wrong. It's only ten years ago. It's 363 00:18:57,359 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 3: still shocking to me though. Megan Kelly followed O'Reilly for 364 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:04,840 Speaker 3: years on Fox. O'Reilly was the number one cable news 365 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 3: show in America for twenty years, and Megan Kelly was 366 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 3: on right after him, and wou would have really good 367 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: ratings because if you follow a big hit, people often 368 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:14,440 Speaker 3: just stick around. 369 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,480 Speaker 2: Back in the old days, stick around and watch the show. 370 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 3: And she had more younger viewers than O'Reilly even when 371 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 3: he was number one, so people really liked that. So 372 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:26,440 Speaker 3: she was in her early forties at that time and 373 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 3: got younger viewers, and so every network in the country 374 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 3: was interested in that. She leaves Fox for NBC in 375 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:38,879 Speaker 3: twenty seventeen. They give her a seventy million dollars deal 376 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 3: for three years, which made her one of the most 377 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 3: high paid anchors in television history at the time. Megan 378 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:50,000 Speaker 3: Kelly of anybody on networks, not just a cable news world, 379 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 3: but anywhere. And then she had the blackface controversy, which 380 00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 3: I don't quite remember and I'm sure it's not worth 381 00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 3: getting back into, but she stood up for somebody black. 382 00:19:58,200 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 2: Face or something. I don't know why I was stupid, 383 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 2: but it was stupid anyway. 384 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 3: She got forced out NBC because the way our contract 385 00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: was built, they had to pay her the full amount, 386 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:08,679 Speaker 3: So she got her for full seventy million dollars, and 387 00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,920 Speaker 3: then she went off into the world of a couple 388 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 3: of different things and then getting this podcast going. 389 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 2: But she has been most of that time. 390 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 3: I never have really watched or listen to her show 391 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: that much, but I've kind of judged it by the 392 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:26,200 Speaker 3: kind of guests that she gets for the past several years, 393 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 3: she's had, for instance, Mark Calprin, who I really trust 394 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 3: and think as an honest broker. Rich Lowry of the 395 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 3: National Review, I trust and believe he's honest broker. They's 396 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 3: a handful of others. But she has made a turn 397 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 3: in just the last couple of months around the whole 398 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:51,200 Speaker 3: Jews Islam thing, after an entire career spent otherwise parroting, 399 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 3: for that matter, parenting, you know, sort of the turn 400 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:58,400 Speaker 3: that Tucker Carlson made. And while we can discuss later 401 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 3: why she's doing it for money or she actually believes it, 402 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 3: or what's going on there, but I mean, this has 403 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 3: all happened fairly recently. Here's her talking about Islam, way 404 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:09,920 Speaker 3: way way back in. 405 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 2: The ancient time of January of this year, just a 406 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 2: few months ago. This is Megan Kelly. 407 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 1: Islam is not consistent with the values of America, of 408 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 1: the West. They should stay in countries that don't care 409 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 1: about keeping church and states separated. They should stay in 410 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: countries that don't care about protecting free speech. They should 411 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,680 Speaker 1: stay in countries that don't care about women's rights. That's 412 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: where Islam confess her and grow. It's great. I mean 413 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,440 Speaker 1: I'm sure if that's like your thing you don't care about, 414 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: like genital mutilation, you might really enjoy living in an 415 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 1: Islamic country. If you don't mind living in a life 416 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: as a woman where you have to keep every inch 417 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,959 Speaker 1: of your body except for your eyeballs covered. Yeah, someplace 418 00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 1: in the Middle East could be for you. It's not 419 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: my thing, it's not America's thing, and it's not a 420 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: thing that we should want to encourage in the West. 421 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,240 Speaker 1: There's no such thing as Islamophobia. You are not only 422 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:03,000 Speaker 1: entitled to quote fear Islam, I would argue, it's your 423 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 1: duty as a Christian to stand up and fight against it. 424 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: It is not consistent with the values of the West 425 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:12,080 Speaker 1: or America, and therefore you have no problem, you should 426 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 1: have no problem standing up against it. 427 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,159 Speaker 3: So you listen to that woman again way back in 428 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 3: the ancient to old times of January of this year, 429 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 3: just a couple of months ago, and pretty clear where 430 00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 3: she stands on the world of Islam, and certainly radical Islam. 431 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: I mean, I would point out that that is an intelligent, 432 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:38,479 Speaker 3: deeply thought about, researched opinion. It's not somebody shooting off 433 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,879 Speaker 3: their mouth about a pop star it is a person 434 00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 3: who understands geopolitics and religio political movements after decades of 435 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 3: covering the topic. Here she is just a couple of 436 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 3: weeks ago he clip eighty one. 437 00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: I think he's understanding there may be some new listeners 438 00:22:56,119 --> 00:23:01,440 Speaker 1: over here, you know, Like he's gotten very very popular lately, 439 00:23:02,040 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 1: I read with Muslim viewers because he's been standing up 440 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 1: for Islam, you know. And I have to tell you, Mark, 441 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 1: it's been something I've noticed just since I've gotten a 442 00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: sort of moral clear eyed on Israel that a lot 443 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:19,640 Speaker 1: of the anti Muslim rhetoric that's put out there originates 444 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 1: with people who are very very pro Israel who kind 445 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 1: of need us to demonize them. And I've taken a 446 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 1: look recently at my own rhetoric on this to say, like, 447 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: have I been manipulated? To make sure I'm not getting manipulated. 448 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 3: She was responding to a question by Mark Halprin, who 449 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 3: I predict is going to stop going on Megan Kelly Show, 450 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 3: although that's a tough thing to do. They've got a 451 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 3: working relationship where she's kind of his boss and he 452 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 3: helps whim with his project. 453 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 2: But anyway, oh boy. 454 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,199 Speaker 3: He was asking her about the turn Tucker took like 455 00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:50,800 Speaker 3: they were trying to have the conversation we're having about 456 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 3: Tucker and Megan Kelly with Megan Kelly, and her answer is, well, 457 00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 3: I think what Tucker's doing is a breath of fresh air. 458 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 3: I mean, he's brought in a lot of new listeners 459 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 3: and viewers, young Muslim men, and I think, frankly, we 460 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 3: need to take a look at have we been misled 461 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 3: by Israel in demonizing Muslims. So it's the Jews that 462 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 3: convinced you that Islam was bad and you fell for it, 463 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 3: and now you're kind of embarrassed about here's a little 464 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 3: more clear eyed about Israel. Yes, Megan, here's a little 465 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 3: more Meghan Kelly for just the other day eighty three. 466 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: There, Michael, he's having a lot of Muslim viewers flock 467 00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: to him. And so while he may have lost some 468 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: contingent of the Fox News audience that's very very pro 469 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 1: Israel and you know, pro Trump, and you can't say 470 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: anything about Trump. For every one of those who leaves, 471 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:42,280 Speaker 1: there is another newer, younger audience member who does want 472 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:46,640 Speaker 1: to hear these traditional lines challenged and hear just new 473 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: independent thinking. I mean, I'm experiencing some of that myself. 474 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,680 Speaker 3: Ah independent thinking, a phrase that will haunt the next 475 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 3: few minutes of this show. Do you have more you'd 476 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 3: like to say on this topic, Jack, I just I've 477 00:25:01,800 --> 00:25:04,879 Speaker 3: seen people put together montages of Megan Kelly on Fox 478 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 3: on NBC, like way back in the day on CNN, Idman. 479 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 2: Really she is on there, she is. 480 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 3: Perhaps a completely empty vessel, and the idea that she 481 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 3: made a turn is the wrong way to look at it. 482 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 2: She didn't have a position. 483 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,560 Speaker 3: She just took whatever position made her rich at the time, 484 00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 3: and for a while there on Fox, it was that position. 485 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 2: And now she's decided it's a different position. So she 486 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 2: hasn't turned. Really, she's just figured out which ways she 487 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 2: thinks the wind is blowing. 488 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 3: Money wise, I actually have a different story about a 489 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: former superstar, Maga Grifter, who is now a superstar anti 490 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 3: Maga Grifter because she saw more money in that. 491 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 2: I mean, there is it's just a huge everybody's a 492 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 2: grifter these days except us. 493 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 3: So as to what's going on with Tucker, I have 494 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: more or less brought the conclusion of what we're about 495 00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 3: to play to you. But here is a commentator by 496 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 3: the name of Lee Trenk bringing the receipts and for 497 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:06,159 Speaker 3: the specifics that he cites. I want you to know 498 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:12,679 Speaker 3: there's visual documentation of everything he says, headlines and real 499 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 3: stories and that sort of thing. 500 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,719 Speaker 2: Do you see it there, Michael eighty six yea. 501 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 6: In late twenty twenty three, Omid Malik, a Pakistani Iranian 502 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,639 Speaker 6: businessman with ties to Qatar, announced he was funding your 503 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 6: Tucker Carlson network to the tune of fifteen million dollars. 504 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 6: In March of twenty twenty five, you gave a softball 505 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:32,920 Speaker 6: interview to Qatari Prime Minister Sheik Muhammad. Honestly, it was 506 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 6: less an interview and more of back massage. Even more 507 00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:40,760 Speaker 6: suspicious lumin Ate, the agency that brokered your interview was 508 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 6: being paid nearly two hundred thousand dollars a month by 509 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 6: the Qatari government. But hey, that's just me noticing. And 510 00:26:48,119 --> 00:26:51,960 Speaker 6: then the other Islamic shoe dropped. In a jaw dropping moment, 511 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:55,879 Speaker 6: you announced you were buying a home in Doha, Qatar. 512 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 6: And even more bizarre was your explanation. You said, and 513 00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 6: I quote, I am going to make a statement that 514 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 6: I'm an American and a free man. A home in 515 00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:09,200 Speaker 6: a country run by a monarchy with no free press, 516 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 6: ruled by sharia law, and bizarrely calling that a celebration 517 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 6: of American freedom, while of course consistently praising sharia law 518 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:22,760 Speaker 6: most of us. That was the final straw in understanding 519 00:27:23,080 --> 00:27:26,800 Speaker 6: you've been compromised because it wasn't just a policy shift, 520 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 6: it was a complete reversal of everything you've built your 521 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,640 Speaker 6: career on. So my challenge, Tucker is come clean. Tell 522 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 6: your audience who's funding your platform? Is it foreign money? 523 00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 6: What prompted these new positions that look nothing like your 524 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 6: last thirty years. If you believe what you're saying, transparency 525 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 6: should be easy. But until you are, I'm not going away. 526 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,200 Speaker 6: And this is just the first drum beat, and I 527 00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 6: promise you I'm going to be like a dog on 528 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 6: a bone until we get an answer. 529 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:02,000 Speaker 2: Woof and who hears? Lee Trenk is his name. 530 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 3: He spent the preceding minute minute and a half explaining 531 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 3: that how all major and most minor news outlets media outlets, 532 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 3: I should say, their financing is completely clear. Everybody knows 533 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,479 Speaker 3: who owns Fox News and Breitbart, and you know all 534 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 3: of them, MSNBC, you name it, The New York Times, 535 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:27,560 Speaker 3: it's absolutely clear who is financing them. And if you 536 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 3: claim to be an independent voice, not answering to the man, 537 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 3: and that's your whole thing, it's all the more important 538 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:40,560 Speaker 3: that you're financing is somewhat transparent, and Tucker's is top 539 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 3: top secret, and all of a sudden he's super Proktar 540 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,480 Speaker 3: and pro Islam after thirty years of the opposite. 541 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,800 Speaker 2: Gee golly, I wish I could come up with a theory. 542 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 3: Well, and then so you think Megan Kelly I had 543 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 3: accepted Tucker for either because he does mind broke, or 544 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:06,280 Speaker 3: the money or whatever had changed directions. But Megan Kelly, 545 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 3: and I guess it's because she has a lot of mainstreamish, 546 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,920 Speaker 3: really top notch pundits on her show. She made the 547 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 3: turn for money, so it would seem Yeah, you have 548 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 3: to understand a couple of things. And I know your 549 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:23,920 Speaker 3: capacity to always be amazed by people doing evil things 550 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:28,720 Speaker 3: is a wonderful part of your personality. Cutter is spending 551 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 3: tens of billions of dollars in PR money every year, 552 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 3: flowing to our universities, to our think tanks, to our 553 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 3: media figures, tens of billions. Everybody has a sliding scale 554 00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 3: of principle to greed, and some people, even if they're 555 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 3: kind of principled, if you weigh one hundred million dollars 556 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 3: in front of them, they can rationalize a way putting 557 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 3: their principles away in favor of the money. Like, I'm 558 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 3: not gonna have that much effect anyway. The Cutteries are 559 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 3: spending way more money on me than justified. I'm not 560 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 3: gonna move fundamentalist Islama on inch down the field, please, 561 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna do it because this is generational wealth 562 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:15,480 Speaker 3: for my family for the next fifty years. 563 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: But I don't get about that. And I've never been 564 00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 2: super rich, so I don't know what it looks like. 565 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 3: But you're Tucker might be worth nine figures before this started, 566 00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 3: like he might be in the one hundred million range. 567 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 2: What do you mean would for generational wealth? How much general? 568 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 2: How many generations do you need to fund? Asked Tucker. 569 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 2: I just don't get it. 570 00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 3: Megan, Kelly's richer than God. You start bad mouth and 571 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 3: the Jews and and and downplaying. 572 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: The evil of a moss for even more money. I 573 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 2: can't imagine being that sort of person. 574 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 3: It's overwhelmingly likely that they are on Cutter's payroll a 575 00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 3: word from our friends at simply Save Home Security.

To enshrine it permanently. 639 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:20,399 Speaker 2: Yeah. 640 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 3: If the Democrats block it, then you have to assume 641 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 3: the worst scenario of the prisoner's dilemma and start stabbing, 642 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:28,040 Speaker 3: as you put it yesterday. 643 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 2: Thanks for being my source of political news. 644 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd be willing to talk about that race to 645 00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:35,480 Speaker 3: the bottom thing more later because I still stand Bye 646 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 3: Bye police. Then just Steve with some excellent analysis of 647 00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:45,880 Speaker 3: Marco Rubio dropping various rap music origin phrases in the 648 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,440 Speaker 3: press conference yesterday they. 649 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,400 Speaker 5: Should check themselves before they wreck themselves in it. 650 00:34:50,239 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: And an unmistakable reference to Cypress Hill as well. They're 651 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 2: insane in the brain. 652 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 3: Right exactly, so, Steve's writes, Rubio is playing three D 653 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 3: chairs with his rap references, as two of the founding 654 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 3: members of Cypress Hill are Cuban Americans like Rubio, and 655 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 3: we're famously in a well known beef with wait for it, 656 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 3: ice Cube. The reference is ice Cube Killer by Cypress 657 00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:16,440 Speaker 3: Hill and King of the Hill by West Side Connection 658 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:18,960 Speaker 3: and ice Cube Side Project. This is all an obvious 659 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 3: illustration of the United States beef with Iran, with Rubio 660 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 3: playing the part of Cypress Hill. They're insane in the brain, ah, right, whatever, 661 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 3: let's see, we've gotten a handful of notes like this 662 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:32,800 Speaker 3: from Anita. I support the bombing of Iran, destroying the regime, 663 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 3: but I've always presumed that they're presumed there had to 664 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 3: be a plan. But now I feel like this was 665 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 3: all very much an impulse played by the president, flying 666 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 3: by the seat of his pants. I don't want to 667 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 3: believe it, but we're seeing it play out now, and 668 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 3: I can't help but wonder if there really was a 669 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 3: plan other than, you know, do the Venezuela and get 670 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 3: the same results.
