1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,280 --> 00:00:12,560
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Getty Enough he.

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty Harris focused on shoring up the key

5
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:28,200
Speaker 3: constituency black men.

6
00:00:28,720 --> 00:00:31,600
Speaker 4: Harris announced a new plan aimed at winning them over,

7
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:35,760
Speaker 4: including one million forgivable small business loans, a focus on

8
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 4: health issues that disproportionately affect black men, and legalizing recreational

9
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 4: marijuana to boost the industry and create new jobs.

10
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 5: That's something. So that's the CBS version of that story.

11
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 5: I want to hear the Fox version of the same story.

12
00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: Politico calls it the Black Men Blitz.

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,600
Speaker 6: Vice President Harris making a hard pitch in the home

14
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 6: stretch to a demographic that she is surprisingly struggling with.

15
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 6: She unveiled her Opportunity Agenda for Black men yesterday, starting

16
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 6: with twenty thousand dollars in forgivable government loans for one

17
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 6: million minorities to start businesses, as well as education, training

18
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 6: and mentorship programs, creating a framework for cryptocurrency, launching health initiatives,

19
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,880
Speaker 6: and legalizing marijuana.

20
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 5: I feel like the whole marijuana angle would be called racist.

21
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 2: If you or anybody else.

22
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:34,759
Speaker 7: Unconstitutional government grants masquerading as loans but only for one race,

23
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,759
Speaker 7: and pot smoking.

24
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,479
Speaker 5: That's the big pitch for black men. Oh yeah, and

25
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 5: has been pointed out by many people. Usually you're gonna

26
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 5: lose if in the final weeks of a campaign you're

27
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:51,880
Speaker 5: spending your time trying to shore up the people you

28
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:53,960
Speaker 5: should be able to guaranteed count on.

29
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 2: Right.

30
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 5: I mean, like if Trump was out trying to clawback

31
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,840
Speaker 5: working class, high school graduate white men.

32
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:07,760
Speaker 7: Right, yeah, blue collar folks who think the country's too progressive.

33
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 7: He's desperately trying to claw them back. Yeah, that's a

34
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:11,560
Speaker 7: sign of trouble.

35
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 5: So on that topic, before we get to the interview portion,

36
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 5: here's a New York Times Siena College poll that's one

37
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 5: of the most respected poles in America. Top issues among

38
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:28,079
Speaker 5: black men fifth on the list at four percent. Abortion,

39
00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:31,240
Speaker 5: So you can give all your speeches about abortion. Black

40
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 5: men don't give a crap. They either don't care about

41
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 5: the issue or they don't like your take on it.

42
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:42,400
Speaker 5: Immigration's very low candidate character single digits. Also, they don't

43
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 5: give a crap about the whole saving their democracy number one,

44
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,399
Speaker 5: like with everyone else, the economy number two inflation.

45
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,400
Speaker 2: Why those aren't added together, I don't know, same thing, but.

46
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, you add those two together economy inflation, and you

47
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 5: got what forty two percent?

48
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 7: So and black men aren't down with Kamala because they're sexist.

49
00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, we haven't even played the Barack Obama stuffy.

50
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 7: You know, I've got some great stuff on that. Let's

51
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 7: go ahead, Michael's thirty eight, if you would.

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: Part of it makes me think that, well, you just

53
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 1: aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president,

54
00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:20,120
Speaker 1: and you're coming up with other alternatives and other.

55
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 4: Reasons for it.

56
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 8: So now you're thinking about sitting out or even supporting

57
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 8: somebody who has.

58
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: A history of denigrating you because you think that's a

59
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: side of psyche, because that's one being a mandas put it.

60
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 3: Women, Now.

61
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 8: That's not exciting.

62
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,040
Speaker 2: When has ju denigrated black men?

63
00:03:57,240 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 7: You got to go back to a couple of lawsuits

64
00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 7: and incidents in like the eighties that allegedly were born

65
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,520
Speaker 7: of racism. But it's the politics of contempt that I'm

66
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 7: hearing there. Barack Obama is so incredibly high handed. To

67
00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 7: quote Gerard Baker in the Wall Street Journal, are you

68
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 7: considering a vote for Donald Trump because you're bad or

69
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 7: because you're stupid. That's that's the question the Democratic Party

70
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 7: wants to put to wavering voters in the final few

71
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:27,280
Speaker 7: weeks of the campaign. The closing argument, they think will

72
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 7: convince people to choose Kamala Harrison Stead, including black men,

73
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 7: which he gets into later. But are you an immorral,

74
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 7: bigoted person one of those notoriously misogynistic black men who

75
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,200
Speaker 7: can't stand up any women. Are a white racist who

76
00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:41,920
Speaker 7: hates foreigners? Or are you a dupe easily misled by misinformation?

77
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 7: Maybe you're both. Whatever. You may not be good or

78
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 7: wise enough to understand, but you must listen to us.

79
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,720
Speaker 7: You're moral and intellectual superiors and do as you're told.

80
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:50,880
Speaker 7: You'll thank us later.

81
00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:58,560
Speaker 5: So I have generally thought Barack Obama is brilliant at politics,

82
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,160
Speaker 5: oftentimes winning things. I really wish he didn't win because

83
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 5: I hated the policy so much. But man, that was awful.

84
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 5: How did he think that was gonna land? I mean,

85
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 5: I don't actually know how it landed, because I'm not

86
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 5: a young black man who was thinking about voting for Trump.

87
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 5: But man, anybody telling me, oh, you think you're a

88
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,279
Speaker 5: man because of this? F you dude, I mean that

89
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 5: that whole thing doesn't work.

90
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 7: Yeah, So anyway Obama said, Obama said what he said

91
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 7: in Baker responds, got that black men could support mister

92
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 7: Trump only because they like putting women down. Can you

93
00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 7: imagine what mister Obama would call a conservative who made

94
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 7: such an invidious generalization?

95
00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:39,560
Speaker 2: No self used the word invidious more often. Uh yeah,

96
00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:43,239
Speaker 2: that's that's that's stunningly condescending.

97
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:44,600
Speaker 8: Right.

98
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,480
Speaker 5: And you just heard the New York Times poll. The

99
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 5: top issues for black men the economy and inflation. I

100
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 5: don't see anywhere it being a man as president or

101
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 5: any of the things that Barack Obama's claiming.

102
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 7: Keeping the bacas down come on. That is so insulting.

103
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 2: It is it really is.

104
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 4: Uh.

105
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 7: Trump is working hard to capitalize on that sort of thing,

106
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 7: is he? Is he talking about the Obama quote? I

107
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 7: know he's really trying to woo more working classmen of

108
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 7: every color because you know, ye hispanic dudes, you black dudes,

109
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 7: you white dudes, you got the same concerns. Dividing you

110
00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 7: by race is only to consolidate their power.

111
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:34,719
Speaker 5: Don't let them do that. Don't let them put you

112
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,320
Speaker 5: in a pen. I probably shouldn't be doing this at

113
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 5: all as a white guy. But I feel like, if

114
00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 5: you haven't seen the video, there's something about the way

115
00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 5: Barack Obama's They're sitting and he's standing. So it's just

116
00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:56,480
Speaker 5: got such a dad talking to his kid's view to it,

117
00:06:56,720 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 5: and he's just got such a you know, Harvard professor

118
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 5: vibe to him now lecturing people about what they ought

119
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 5: to feel and think. I just can't imagine that that

120
00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,679
Speaker 5: landed well. Some of you may remember.

121
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 7: My greatest probably problem with Barack Obama, other than that

122
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,119
Speaker 7: he's a socialist, is that he's an academic. He sees

123
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 7: the world as an academic sees it. He thinks, if

124
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 7: he writes it on the talkboard and then strings together

125
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 7: several eloquent sentences about it, the Muslims, for instance, will

126
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 7: embrace the Jews and everything will be fine because he

127
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 7: is so eloquent and persuasive. Just, oh god, he's so pretentious. Anyway,

128
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 7: this is unpretentious. Kamala Harris is stupid, or is it?

129
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 7: I'm sorry, I think I've misquoted the great man. Kamala

130
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 7: Harris is an idiot, according to Charles C. W.

131
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 2: Cook, and he.

132
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 7: Explains that over the last couple of years. Is familiarity

133
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 7: is bread contempt, and contempt his bread exasperation. I got

134
00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 7: into the habit of distilling into customarily blunt terms what

135
00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 7: I think of our most prominent political aspirance. My modest

136
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,520
Speaker 7: verdict on the incumbent Joe President President Joe Biden was

137
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 7: that he was an a hole.

138
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,680
Speaker 5: Joe Biden is an a hole. That's Charlie Cook's take on.

139
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 5: Charlie Cook's not a Trump fan either.

140
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 7: My considered take on his presidente sessor, Donald Trump was

141
00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 7: that he is a lunatic herewith to complete the trilogy

142
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 7: known to self use the term here with more often.

143
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: I will love earn another candidate.

144
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 7: Take Kamala Harris is an idiot, like the little boy

145
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 7: staring at the naked emperor in the famous fairy Tale

146
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,360
Speaker 7: of Yore. I can scarcely believe what I'm seeing before

147
00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:40,880
Speaker 7: my eyes. Since she replaced Joe Biden on the ticket,

148
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 7: reporters have struggled mightily to find kind ways of describing

149
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 7: Harris is ineluctable. Good Lord, does he have a vocabulary

150
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:55,120
Speaker 7: inability to convey anything comprehensible, complex or concrete?

151
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 2: And this is great?

152
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 7: Harris The New York times, is variously proposed, has been

153
00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:07,400
Speaker 7: quote strategically vague or quote light on detail, and quote careful. Alternately,

154
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 7: she is quote put her stamp on the art of

155
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:14,480
Speaker 7: the dodge, learn to respond quote to unpleasant questions without

156
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,359
Speaker 7: answering them, and shown an ability to quote avoid delineating

157
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 7: her stance on some issues.

158
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 5: Avoided delineating her stance, I'd say.

159
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,000
Speaker 7: And yet if one were to search for a single

160
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 7: word to sum up her candidacyy that word apparently would

161
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,599
Speaker 7: be joy I disagree.

162
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 2: I think that the word would be idiot.

163
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 7: Harris isn't vague or careful or disinclined to delineate her stance.

164
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 7: She's wildly, catastrophically, incontestably out of her depth. She's not light,

165
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 7: she's dull. She's not a dodger. She's a fool. She's

166
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 7: not joyful. She's imbecilic. She's a nullity of vacuum, an

167
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 7: actress and empty canvas that is incapable of absorbing paint.

168
00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 7: Search through Harris's historical press clippings, you will be astonished

169
00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 7: by the vastness of space. For in more than two

170
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:06,720
Speaker 7: decades of analyze, analysis, and reporting, Harris has not once

171
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 7: been credited with a single valuable or original idea that

172
00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:15,440
Speaker 7: is a true fact. What you see on TV is

173
00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 7: what you get in private, a broken battery operated toy

174
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 7: that can't talk, that can't argue, that can't laugh in

175
00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 7: the right places, and that badly malfunctions if expected to

176
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:27,480
Speaker 7: transcend the superficial. Asked by Stephanie Rule, what would happen

177
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 7: to her plan to raise corporate taxes and make billionaires

178
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,320
Speaker 7: in top corporations pay their fair share?

179
00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,960
Speaker 2: That's all quote if the GOP takes control.

180
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 7: Of Senate, Harris seemed unable to process the concept. But

181
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,360
Speaker 7: we're going to have to raise corporate taxes, she replied,

182
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 7: And we're going to have de raise. We're going to

183
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,800
Speaker 7: have to make sure that the biggest corporations and billionaires

184
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 7: pay their fair share.

185
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 2: That's just it.

186
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 5: Well, that is going to come to a screeching halt tomorrow.

187
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 5: I think as she's doing an interview with Brett Bhaer

188
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 5: on Fox, I assume out of desperation. I gotta believe

189
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 5: if they thought going on Fox and doing an interview

190
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 5: is a good idea, they would have done it earlier.

191
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,880
Speaker 5: I think it's because they're tied Slash losing, and you know,

192
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:12,960
Speaker 5: if you're losing three weeks out, you got to do

193
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:15,400
Speaker 5: something to change a narrative. Here's what James Carvell says.

194
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:17,080
Speaker 5: The problem is with her doing an interview.

195
00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:18,880
Speaker 4: I'm not a.

196
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 2: Fan of doing interviews with different people because the problem

197
00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 2: to interview is you have to answer the question that

198
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:26,719
Speaker 2: the interviewer asks you.

199
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 5: And that's going to be different than having Stephanie Rule

200
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 5: on MSNBC ask you questions, or Howard Stern or any

201
00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 5: of the other fawning people who have already stated that

202
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 5: their only goal is to make sure Trump loses.

203
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 2: Right, Brett Baar is a very fair.

204
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,000
Speaker 5: Journalist, but he's going to ask the questions you've been

205
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:54,719
Speaker 5: wanting asked, and then he's going to follow up if

206
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,199
Speaker 5: she doesn't answer them, and they're not going to edit

207
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 5: out her answers.

208
00:11:58,920 --> 00:11:59,720
Speaker 2: That's just a fact.

209
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 5: And also I don't this is not confirmed yet, but

210
00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 5: the rumor is is she going to go on Joe

211
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 5: Rogan next week to try to reach young men.

212
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:12,439
Speaker 7: I like to attach a level of certainty to my opinions.

213
00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:19,440
Speaker 7: Sometimes I have no confidence confidence whatsoever in answering the question.

214
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,800
Speaker 7: Why is she going on Brett Behar I guess it's

215
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:26,800
Speaker 7: to woo the never Trump Republican crowd over to her side.

216
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:31,040
Speaker 5: If she can get them, that has to be it.

217
00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:35,719
Speaker 5: She's terrible, though, it's going to go very poorly. That's

218
00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 5: a decent question. Uh why is she going on Brett Bear?

219
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 5: Because they must feel like too much of the country

220
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 5: feels like she hasn't done a tough interview yet, even

221
00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:50,640
Speaker 5: after sixty minutes.

222
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,720
Speaker 2: And their friendly media blitz failed.

223
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 5: So they must have some polling or belief that a

224
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 5: big chunk of undecided voters thinks she hasn't done a

225
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 5: real interview yet.

226
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,560
Speaker 2: That's got to be it, right, I guess which is

227
00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:06,200
Speaker 2: pulling to that? Which is fairly accurate? Boy, is she

228
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:07,040
Speaker 2: rolling the dice?

229
00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 7: Oh?

230
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 5: I'd say I think the chance of her coming out

231
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,559
Speaker 5: of this unscathed are zero.

232
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much. As an idiot has.

233
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 5: Previously discussed, numb nut any any thoughts text line four

234
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,840
Speaker 5: one five two nine five k FTC.

235
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,200
Speaker 7: In Brazil, a video has gone viral of a monkey

236
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 7: drinking beer. Beer drinking monkey is so popular he's been

237
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 7: immortalized in the new children's book We're Worried About You George.

238
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 5: Wow, we've gathered all your monkey friends to talk to

239
00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 5: you about.

240
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,959
Speaker 2: Something, Jim Chim, would you like to begin? Wow?

241
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 7: Do you know who David Berg is? Or is it Burge?

242
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 7: I don't actually know, he writes the Iowa Hawk blog.

243
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 7: He is a brilliant and hilarious commentator, and he's posted

244
00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:00,319
Speaker 7: this video that appears to be of Russell brand End,

245
00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 7: the actor comedian long Hair who's remade himself as a

246
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:08,040
Speaker 7: right wing Christian influencer.

247
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's way out there.

248
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:13,000
Speaker 7: He's now selling a magic amulet that protects you from

249
00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,679
Speaker 7: Wi Fi signals and other evil energies only two hundred

250
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 7: and thirty nine dollars in ninety nine cents per amulet.

251
00:14:19,680 --> 00:14:21,800
Speaker 5: Oh boy, what I need to know what that looks like?

252
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,320
Speaker 5: So if I see one wearing them, I know what

253
00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 5: I'm dealing with.

254
00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's not a real close up there. It's on

255
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,880
Speaker 7: that video, but I don't I think it's it's one

256
00:14:30,960 --> 00:14:33,200
Speaker 7: of those many things he wears around his neck. But anyway,

257
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 7: David Berg's comment is we truly live in a golden

258
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 7: age for rape e con artists. It used to be

259
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 7: that you began your career as a Christian snake oil

260
00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 7: salesman until rape accusations ended it. Now the system is

261
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 7: to wait until the rape accusations come out. Then you

262
00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 7: begin your career as a Christian quote quote unquote snake

263
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 7: oil salesman. We truly live in a golden age for

264
00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:05,239
Speaker 7: rape e con artists allegedly allegedly rape.

265
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 2: Right.

266
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 5: Okay, I didn't want to say another thing about the election,

267
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 5: but I just came across this.

268
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,440
Speaker 2: Can't stop himself, folks.

269
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 5: So Trump is doing a Bloomberg interview today. I don't

270
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 5: know why Mark Alpern and his newsletter considers that a

271
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 5: big deal. They're pretty left. He's done a lot. Practically

272
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 5: every interview he does is somebody left me.

273
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, yeah. The whole media is so anyway.

274
00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 2: This is what Halpern wrote in his newsletter today.

275
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 5: Here's my spidery sense view from Trump's interview with Bloomberg

276
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 5: today to Harris's appearance on Fox News tomorrow. By sundown

277
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:53,280
Speaker 5: Wednesday night, we are going to know who will win

278
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 5: the election.

279
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 2: Oh wow, wow.

280
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:03,800
Speaker 5: I gotta believe that's mostly based on Kamala's like if

281
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 5: she like, if she clears the bar, she won't. If

282
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 5: she clears the bar, she won't. I can't stop saying

283
00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 5: she won't. If she clears the bar and Trump really fails,

284
00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:24,040
Speaker 5: she won't, Well, Trump will be Trump. Well exactly what

285
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,600
Speaker 5: would him failing in an interview?

286
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 2: Look like?

287
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:31,920
Speaker 7: He might ramble some or promise of policy that won't happen,

288
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,800
Speaker 7: or or start talking about how she's not really black

289
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:36,800
Speaker 7: like he did with that one women's group or whatever

290
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:40,920
Speaker 7: I want, right, But he always survives those things, right anyway?

291
00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,720
Speaker 7: So yeah, I think it's all about Kamala's interview. I

292
00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 7: think it is too with Bratt. Oh, I feel like

293
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 7: somebody told me, Hey, there's going to be a car

294
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,080
Speaker 7: wreck right here in five minutes, and I'm just full

295
00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 7: of excitement and foreboding.

296
00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 2: I don't want to see a car wreck.

297
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,080
Speaker 5: I stop and look at them like everybody else, but

298
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:01,280
Speaker 5: I don't want to see it happen.

299
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 7: Oh, so you would leave, You wouldn't stand there and think, wow,

300
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:05,280
Speaker 7: this is crazy.

301
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:08,040
Speaker 2: I think I would leave. This is going to be

302
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:08,400
Speaker 2: all right?

303
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:08,560
Speaker 4: Then?

304
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:09,160
Speaker 2: A train wreck?

305
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:09,320
Speaker 7: Now?

306
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:15,800
Speaker 2: What a train wreck? Armstrong and Getty.

307
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 9: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin nettan Yah, who told President Biden

308
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,159
Speaker 9: in a phone call that Israel will strike Iranian military

309
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 9: sites instead of oil or nuclear locations. That information signals

310
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,399
Speaker 9: net and Yah who might be willing to avoid a

311
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,520
Speaker 9: greater escalation with Iran, at least for now, and he's

312
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:36,439
Speaker 9: aware that any type of strike against Iran could actually

313
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:40,320
Speaker 9: impact our US election. Net and Yahoo reportedly saying, we

314
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:42,960
Speaker 9: will listen to the opinions of the United States, but

315
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 9: we will make our final decisions based on our national interest.

316
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 2: So that was yesterday and the story is today.

317
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,600
Speaker 5: It's going to happen in the next couple of weeks,

318
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 5: definitely before the election, so we'll keep our eye on that.

319
00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,520
Speaker 7: I'll bit BB on a daily basis, asks his advisors,

320
00:17:56,440 --> 00:18:00,800
Speaker 7: remind me when the Spineless Mummy leaves office again. On

321
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 7: a totally different topic, much closer to home.

322
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:05,600
Speaker 2: It's funny.

323
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 7: I've wanted to bring this up for a while, the

324
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:15,480
Speaker 7: real crisis in America's government schools, and I don't want

325
00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 7: to be the cliched everything is going to hell all

326
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 7: the time person like me. That's what I am, because

327
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 7: that's my brand, because we already have one of them. No,

328
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,159
Speaker 7: but I was thinking about it, and it goes back

329
00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,000
Speaker 7: to our discussion of the natural state of things is

330
00:18:32,119 --> 00:18:38,400
Speaker 7: chaos and poverty and violence, and if you have a civilization.

331
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 7: The challenge of preserving that civilization never ends and everything

332
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:50,560
Speaker 7: isn't necessarily going to hell, but everything will go to

333
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 7: hell if you don't stop it.

334
00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,240
Speaker 2: Going to hell needs to be maintained.

335
00:18:55,440 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 7: Yes, in short, so, anyway, I think one of the things,

336
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 7: in another principle, before we get into specific said, you've

337
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 7: quoted George will As saying one of the essential elements

338
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 7: of being a conservative is you have to deal with reality,

339
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 7: recognize what is right. You can't be a utopian, unicorn

340
00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:21,920
Speaker 7: riding wisher of fond wishes and call yourself a conservative.

341
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 2: It's just it doesn't fit.

342
00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,719
Speaker 7: So anyway, I think we have an enormous crisis with

343
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 7: America's government schools right now. I don't think there's any

344
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 7: doubt of that. I think it would be a four

345
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:42,520
Speaker 7: alarm panic going on in America right now if it

346
00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 7: were not for two things. Number One, a lot of

347
00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,479
Speaker 7: parents think schools are still what they went to, what

348
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 7: they grew up with, and the distraction of the golden

349
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 7: Bachelor and the golden Bachelor. And there are three things

350
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,520
Speaker 7: now that I think about it, and the other one

351
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 7: is that there are some schools. It's actually four things,

352
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 7: including the Golden Bachelor. There are some schools that are

353
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,240
Speaker 7: still doing a good job. They're fighting hard, they're in

354
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 7: conservative areas, the teachers and administrators are not fully woke,

355
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 7: so people think our schools seem to be fine, and

356
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:22,440
Speaker 7: maybe they are. But the fourth thing, obviously, is that

357
00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 7: the dominant media do not talk about this much at

358
00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 7: all because it's extremely uncomfortable for them because they are progressive,

359
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 7: they are woke, they are pro union, and.

360
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 5: The heavyweights have their kids in private schools, so they

361
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:37,840
Speaker 5: wouldn't know anyway.

362
00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 2: That's a good point.

363
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,320
Speaker 7: That is a good point in the middleweights too, anyway.

364
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:45,919
Speaker 7: So a couple of exhibits in the prosecution of America's

365
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,720
Speaker 7: government schools. One that you've probably heard similar fare before,

366
00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 7: but this is a bit of an update. Between two thousand,

367
00:20:53,320 --> 00:20:57,919
Speaker 7: year two thousand and the year twenty twenty two, the

368
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:02,800
Speaker 7: number of students and as schools rose by five percent.

369
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 2: Five percent.

370
00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:11,200
Speaker 7: The number of teachers rose by ten percent, which is interesting. Yeah,

371
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 7: the number of principles and assistant principles rose by forty percent.

372
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 2: Whoa what who who had their kid in school.

373
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 5: In the year two thousand thought, you know this is

374
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 5: going well, it'd be a lot better though, if we

375
00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 5: had like eight more principles.

376
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 2: Yes, who the hell fought that? Right?

377
00:21:30,520 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 7: And then again keeping in mind that the increase in

378
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 7: students is five percent, the increase in administrative staff is

379
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,720
Speaker 7: ninety five percent.

380
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:39,399
Speaker 3: There you go.

381
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: Same is with universities. Yeah.

382
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 7: Now, some we've talked about this in the past, and

383
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:48,040
Speaker 7: some folks have said, yeah, the uh the government mandates

384
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,400
Speaker 7: on schools is so cumbersome. Now the federal and state mandates.

385
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 7: You have to have compliance staff, Oh my god, that

386
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 7: spend their whole days issuing reports and filling out forms

387
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 7: that say you've conformed to all of the demands of

388
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:05,720
Speaker 7: the centralized government.

389
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 5: There are so many forms. So I have been through

390
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 5: a lot of this and super nice people. I'm not

391
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,200
Speaker 5: complaining about any of these people. But I was one

392
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 5: meeting that had like fifteen people in it about my son,

393
00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 5: and they kept using the word rubric. Well, this, this

394
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 5: fits the rubric, and it doesn't fit the rubric. And

395
00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,920
Speaker 5: we've looked at the rubric everythink, like I said, I

396
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,360
Speaker 5: think I said out loud, I think I cannot hear

397
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:31,760
Speaker 5: the word rubric another time. We gotta I don't even

398
00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:34,520
Speaker 5: know what that is. We gotta stop saying the word rubric.

399
00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 2: Please. If we do nothing else here, it's refrain from

400
00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 2: singing rubric.

401
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:42,920
Speaker 5: So it was a paperwork thing. It was just all

402
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 5: kinds of different layers of paperwork.

403
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:48,760
Speaker 7: So you have this from Jason Riley, who's a great

404
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,160
Speaker 7: writer and thinker. Biden and Harris worked to crush school competition.

405
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 7: He is more opposed to charter schools than any president

406
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:57,919
Speaker 7: in recent history.

407
00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 2: And Kamala has spoken in.

408
00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 7: Enthusiastically about how wonderful teachers unions are and that everything

409
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,439
Speaker 7: that tends to take money and influence away from the

410
00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 7: teachers unions is an attack on public schools. That would

411
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:17,880
Speaker 7: be bad enough were it not for the numbers involved. Again,

412
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 7: this is fairly Oh you know, the National Review actually

413
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 7: touched on the fact that the left is now trying

414
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:27,120
Speaker 7: to promote or I'm sorry to indict school choice movements

415
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 7: as an effort a secret plot to promote Christian nationalism.

416
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,280
Speaker 2: All right, that's one of the attacks.

417
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,359
Speaker 5: I assume you're about to get to some of the

418
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,520
Speaker 5: results we're getting out of the schools. Uh yeah, okay,

419
00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 5: But even without that, even if it had maintained what

420
00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,640
Speaker 5: public schools were from the past, why would you need

421
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 5: to increase administration by ninety percent and think that that

422
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 5: was a good idea even if we had maintained the

423
00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,520
Speaker 5: same quality. It's like, well, why are we spending all

424
00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:01,080
Speaker 5: this money? Was working fine before?

425
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,400
Speaker 7: Right, Yeah, And I'm looking at the clock. I think

426
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,399
Speaker 7: maybe we take a break and then come back with

427
00:24:06,440 --> 00:24:08,639
Speaker 7: some of the results stuff. But the other thing I

428
00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 7: wanted to get to, and we have a lot of

429
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,199
Speaker 7: great teachers who listen to the show and communicate to

430
00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,080
Speaker 7: us and blow the whistle on some of the more

431
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:23,280
Speaker 7: insane progressive things that are taking the place of math

432
00:24:23,320 --> 00:24:25,879
Speaker 7: and reading in our schools. The genderbread person, which I'm

433
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 7: always hammering about because you know, California is a particular

434
00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:31,479
Speaker 7: interest because that's where the show is based, and the

435
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:35,920
Speaker 7: perversity in California schools is just it's heartbreaking. But anyway,

436
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 7: Wall Street Journal with a big piece teachers are burning

437
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 7: out on the job, and the subhead is student behavior

438
00:24:44,800 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 7: and mediocre pay are taking their toll.

439
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 2: From lefty media. It's always about the pay.

440
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 7: It's always about money, and there's such a lack of

441
00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:00,639
Speaker 7: understanding and wisdom. Maybe it's that progressives so fill the

442
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:02,560
Speaker 7: newsrooms that that's the only point of view, and a

443
00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,840
Speaker 7: lot of journalists are young these days because it doesn't

444
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 7: pay very well.

445
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 2: But there is such a lack of wisdom.

446
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:17,399
Speaker 7: If I have a fun, rewarding, joyful job and I

447
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 7: get the summer off, I would accept that rate of

448
00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:28,959
Speaker 7: pay at X. If I have a miserable, discouraging, heartbreaking job,

449
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:31,000
Speaker 7: I'm not gonna.

450
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:33,159
Speaker 2: Work for that low level pay. I'm gonna want a

451
00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:33,600
Speaker 2: hell of a.

452
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:38,080
Speaker 7: Lot more to keep showing up very good point, student

453
00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 7: behavior problems, cell phones in class, anemic pay that's not

454
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 7: really true, and artificial intelligence powered cheating are taking their

455
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 7: toll on America's roughly three point eight million teachers on

456
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:54,719
Speaker 7: top of the bruising pandemic years. The sheriff teachers who

457
00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 7: say the stress and disappointments of the job are worth

458
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:02,760
Speaker 7: it has fallen twenty one on points in the last

459
00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 7: couple of years.

460
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:05,320
Speaker 2: Don't doubt that.

461
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 7: As recently as twenty eighteen, over seventy percent of teachers

462
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,640
Speaker 7: said the stress was worth it. Now it's forty two.

463
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,720
Speaker 5: In surveys and interviews, teachers are most any any place

464
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 5: you work, as they is, they layered in more administration

465
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 5: to wherever you work. Did that make things more enjoyable

466
00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,480
Speaker 5: or less enjoyable where you work well?

467
00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 7: And we're going to get to the you know, it's

468
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 7: more than frustration, it's being physically at risk. In surveys

469
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,600
Speaker 7: and interviews, teachers are most often pointing to a startling

470
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 7: rise in students' mental health challenges and misbehavior as the

471
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:45,639
Speaker 7: biggest drivers of burnout. In the Rand Corporation survey, student

472
00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,280
Speaker 7: behavior was the top source of teachers job stress.

473
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 5: A lot of that, I guarantee you is that whole

474
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:53,160
Speaker 5: restorative justice thing where they have no ability to deal

475
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:53,480
Speaker 5: with it.

476
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,679
Speaker 2: That's the next sentence.

477
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 7: You're absolutely right to quote a high school math teacher

478
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,520
Speaker 7: who says he saw student behavior to interiorate seriously, let

479
00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:06,600
Speaker 7: yet his school drew more lenient in administrating administering consequences.

480
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,720
Speaker 5: How is the country not aware of what a failure

481
00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 5: this restorative justice thing is?

482
00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,399
Speaker 7: I know, because nobody talks about it in the media.

483
00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,200
Speaker 7: And this poor son of a gun, so he's dealing

484
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,080
Speaker 7: with all this frustration and then his district, Kansas City

485
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,640
Speaker 7: Public Schools, shout out Kansas City. The great cities were

486
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,640
Speaker 7: a privileged to be on. They rolled out a new

487
00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:33,280
Speaker 7: policy last year, teachers could not give students a zero

488
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 7: for an assignment even if they didn't turn it in

489
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 7: and didn't make any effort to.

490
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,600
Speaker 2: It is to laugh. I mean, that is so funny.

491
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:46,480
Speaker 2: It is funny, It is hilarious. So so say that again.

492
00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 7: You can't get a zero even if even if you say,

493
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,119
Speaker 7: not only did I not do the assignment, mister Gerald,

494
00:27:55,040 --> 00:27:58,720
Speaker 7: you should shove it up your arms. He cannot give

495
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:01,400
Speaker 7: you a zero for that assign You've got to get

496
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 7: at least like c C one of the things I

497
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 7: got when I got into teaching. My one thing was

498
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,840
Speaker 7: about learning and love of learning, he says. In the end,

499
00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 7: it was less about the learning and more about babysitting.

500
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,959
Speaker 7: He left teaching this summer. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. And

501
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 7: they go into a great deal of detail, with many,

502
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 7: many examples of classroom stress and violence, lack of consequences

503
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,640
Speaker 7: for bad behavior, restorative justice.

504
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,160
Speaker 2: I mean, look it up, well, don't look it up, because.

505
00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:29,959
Speaker 5: Their description of it won't be accurate as to what

506
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 5: actually happens.

507
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 2: It is.

508
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:35,840
Speaker 5: It is the recipe for no discipline and a bullies paradise.

509
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 2: It is, it is.

510
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 7: It is tragic for the children and the teachers and

511
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 7: it's part of Oh yeah, absolutely true, and it's one

512
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 7: hundred percent part of the neo Marxist We're going to

513
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:50,360
Speaker 7: break the system. We're going to call everything racist until

514
00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,840
Speaker 7: we control it. And they do control the schools to

515
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 7: a large extent now, and anybody who stands in our

516
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 7: way will call them a racist until we have imposed

517
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 7: our philosophy on what ever institution you're talking about, from

518
00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 7: public schools to corporations, to the United States government to

519
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 7: the military for instance.

520
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 5: By the way, in Kansas City, we're on FM, so

521
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 5: people can really enjoy our pipes.

522
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:18,120
Speaker 2: I have nothing to add to that, you know, and

523
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:19,680
Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm looking at the clock.

524
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,959
Speaker 7: I came across another account a number of school districts

525
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 7: in oh it was Virginia and one other state in

526
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:37,479
Speaker 7: which far fewer than half of the children were at

527
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:42,239
Speaker 7: the minimum level in English, and it was less than

528
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,800
Speaker 7: a third in district after district were not at the

529
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 7: minimum level for math. We sometimes talk about proficiency. This

530
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,680
Speaker 7: was the well the minimum and the vast majority kids

531
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 7: are nowhere near it. And if you say, I got

532
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 7: to get my kid out of this school. The forces

533
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 7: of the left from Joe Biden Kamala Harrison down will

534
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:11,240
Speaker 7: tell you you're a rasist for some reason. B you're

535
00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 7: attacking public schools trying to take resources away.

536
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,680
Speaker 2: You're a bad person and a bad parent. It's crazier

537
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 2: that this isn't a bigger issue. It is. It absolutely is.

538
00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,840
Speaker 5: Any thoughts on this text line four one five two

539
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 5: nine five KFTC.

540
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,760
Speaker 7: It is breaking news, breaking news on the story we

541
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 7: were talking about just now off the air. It looks

542
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 7: like a fifth university has forfeited a match against San

543
00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 7: Jose State San Jose State University because they have a

544
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,160
Speaker 7: dude on the team.

545
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,920
Speaker 5: So they continue to be nine and zero San Jose.

546
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:50,440
Speaker 5: San Jose State's women's volleyball team undefeated with a dude

547
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 5: on the team.

548
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:51,479
Speaker 2: Nine and zero.

549
00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,040
Speaker 5: They haven't been able to play any more games because

550
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 5: five straight teams have forfeited, saying we're not playing against

551
00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 5: the dude who can spike the ball at eighty miles

552
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 5: an hour right as a safety concern, which is a true,

553
00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,719
Speaker 5: but I also feel like a bit of a dodge

554
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 5: in that you shouldn't allow it anyway.

555
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:11,959
Speaker 7: Well, yeah, I really don't feel like I need to

556
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,640
Speaker 7: come up with a second argument when my first argument

557
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 7: is that's a dude, since we're.

558
00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:20,440
Speaker 2: Talking about women's sports.

559
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, and I will not use the term transgender woman

560
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 7: when we're discussing something like that.

561
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 2: That's ridiculous. That is not a woman. That is a man.

562
00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,080
Speaker 7: If you're an effeminate man, a gay man, a man

563
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:33,760
Speaker 7: in a dress, whatever, that's fine.

564
00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:36,480
Speaker 2: You do you brother, but I'm not calling you a woman.

565
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,320
Speaker 7: I will not be put forced to my knees in

566
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,480
Speaker 7: a Maoist struggle section session and forced to say something

567
00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 7: I know not to be true.

568
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:49,240
Speaker 2: Sir, you fight that one. I'll fight Columbus day, all right.

569
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:57,840
Speaker 5: So if all it was was it's unfair competition would

570
00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 5: be reason enough, or took a slot from a girl

571
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:03,800
Speaker 5: who could have been on the volleyball team, that would

572
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 5: be enough.

573
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:05,719
Speaker 2: Yes, lots of reasons.

574
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:07,480
Speaker 5: You don't even need the eighty mile an hour spike,

575
00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 5: but that is included. And they're they're worried about people

576
00:32:09,720 --> 00:32:12,280
Speaker 5: getting hurt, and so now there's an actual lawsuit.

577
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 2: Yeah.

578
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 7: Current teammate of Blair Fleming, a trans identifying male on

579
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:22,280
Speaker 7: the undefeated San Jose State women's best volleyball team, pretty

580
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,400
Speaker 7: good looking as a woman. Oh lord, has joined more

581
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:28,200
Speaker 7: than a dozen other female athletes and suing the NCAA

582
00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:29,760
Speaker 7: for Title nine violations.

583
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 5: You gals go get them. So this might be the one. Huh,

584
00:32:33,920 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 5: this might be the nail in the coffin for this

585
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,680
Speaker 5: going on across Penn State. Didn't have the courage or

586
00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 5: the team's playing them, or it was too new, they

587
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 5: didn't know how to handle it. They should have done

588
00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 5: the same thing with Leah Thomas when she was breaking

589
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:50,880
Speaker 5: record after record after record swimming as a woman at

590
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:51,440
Speaker 5: Penn State.

591
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 2: I think was up Pennsylvania. It doesn't matter. I think

592
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,640
Speaker 2: you're right. University of Pennsylvan.

593
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 5: You're sorry Penn State blasphemed you and even after you're

594
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:03,360
Speaker 5: stunning lost to USC, you don't need this.

595
00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:08,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, Penn State's child rape, not transgender swimmers.

596
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 5: Jerry right, that's a long time now. I won't feel

597
00:33:11,640 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 5: as bad about saying bad things.

598
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,240
Speaker 2: That was a long time ago. Yeah. Anyway, where was I?

599
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 3: Oh?

600
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:19,360
Speaker 7: The Supreme Court this session is going to be taking

601
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 7: a look at the transgender sports thing, I believe, and

602
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 7: if they don't rule in the correct same way, I.

603
00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 2: Will be moving to Uruguay or Paraguay, never remember which.

604
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:34,960
Speaker 5: This is gonna come to a hard stop, and we're

605
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 5: gonna look back on it years from now. Like I

606
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 5: was going to try to come up with a good

607
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:43,920
Speaker 5: example of other crazy things that have happened in the

608
00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 5: past that you just can't even believe happened. I guess,

609
00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 5: like when they were doing the medical experiments on black

610
00:33:49,560 --> 00:33:51,960
Speaker 5: men giving them syphilis or whatever. We'll look back on

611
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 5: the air and think, can you believe that happened? Right,

612
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 5: We'll look back on the air where men were dominating

613
00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 5: women's sports and they are allowing it to happen.

614
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:03,480
Speaker 7: And they'd ask Grandpa, why did they let the men play? Well,

615
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,360
Speaker 7: they said they were women, and you couldn't tell they

616
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 7: were men. Oh no, everybody knew they were men. But

617
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,000
Speaker 7: because they said they were women, some people said that

618
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 7: made them women. And your grandchild or you know, adult

619
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:22,160
Speaker 7: grandchild or whatever would look at you like I'm seriously

620
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 7: missing something here and I don't know what.

621
00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 2: How did they.

622
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 5: Handle the locker room, Well, they just walked around with

623
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 5: their crankout in front of the other girls. They made

624
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 5: the girls hide elsewhere to change so the man could

625
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,680
Speaker 5: change in comfort. And Grandpa, this is the same left

626
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,000
Speaker 5: that screamed that they were for women's rights. Yeah, I know,

627
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:44,440
