<v Speaker 2>Find out where aver you find all your podcasts? Hold

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 2>my calls. I got to work in a couple of

0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:38.800
<v Speaker 2>sets of squats.

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 3>It's one more thing.

0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:47.240
<v Speaker 2>I can't I can't imagine where those going.

0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:52.480
<v Speaker 3>So even the radio ranch, full of slackers and fatties

0:00:52.560 --> 0:00:53.639
<v Speaker 3>and stoned in.

0:00:53.720 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 2>Its has a gym. An office gym. That's right. I've

0:00:57.560 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 2>never I've been in it. I've never used it. You know.

0:01:00.000 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 3>Well I was seriously about to use it when COVID hit,

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:06.160
<v Speaker 3>and then of course they had to lock it up

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:10.840
<v Speaker 3>so nobody would exercise this or something. Right, Oh the

0:01:11.000 --> 0:01:15.360
<v Speaker 3>freaking idiocy. Anyway, This from the Journal of Wall Street.

0:01:15.640 --> 0:01:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Forget the office, Jim, Welcome to the gym. Office working

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:24.199
<v Speaker 3>out or just working more. Gyms are encouraging remote working

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 3>members to stay all day and do both. It's like

0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 3>a Starbucks with a bunch of weight equipment and ellipticals

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:32.920
<v Speaker 3>and then.

0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 2>The treadmills and stuff.

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:38.240
<v Speaker 3>So you stay all day, You work a little bit,

0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 3>then you do a couple of sets of squats, and

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 3>you come back. You make a call, then you throw

0:01:45.120 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 3>the iron, you bench press three hundred and fifty pounds

0:01:48.160 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 3>ten times, like I like to to relax in the afternoon.

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 2>I stand on that thing with the band around you

0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:57.320
<v Speaker 2>that shakes you. That's what I mean. Beautiful.

0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:02.720
<v Speaker 4>You guys doing this from a gym. I wouldn't work

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:03.520
<v Speaker 4>for this profession.

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever worked anywhere? This was very popular around

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:06.240
<v Speaker 2>here for a while.

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 5>Have you ever worked anywhere, Katie where people sat on

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.839
<v Speaker 5>the ball to yeah, just strengthen their core.

0:02:11.680 --> 0:02:14.240
<v Speaker 4>I'm surprised you guys didn't see me doing that in

0:02:14.280 --> 0:02:15.440
<v Speaker 4>the San Francisco building.

0:02:15.520 --> 0:02:15.760
<v Speaker 5>Mmm.

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:17.959
<v Speaker 2>May have. I just didn't want to.

0:02:17.960 --> 0:02:18.080
<v Speaker 6>Oh.

0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:21.040
<v Speaker 2>Do you feel like it works? Yeah? And it keeps

0:02:21.040 --> 0:02:23.880
<v Speaker 2>you moving. Yeah, it seems like a good idea.

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:25.919
<v Speaker 4>And all the rage on the internet right now. Are

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:27.880
<v Speaker 4>these treadmills that go under your desk?

0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:28.639
<v Speaker 3>Uh?

0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:28.919
<v Speaker 1>No?

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:32.079
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well wait a second, they go under your desk

0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:33.880
<v Speaker 5>so you're sitting and you move your feet.

0:02:33.880 --> 0:02:36.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah really wait yeah?

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 4>Or under your standing, you can do both if you

0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:41.960
<v Speaker 4>have one of the standing desks, like you can walk

0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.000
<v Speaker 4>on it, and then they have a feature where you

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 4>put it under the desk and you just keep your

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:46.639
<v Speaker 4>legs moving at a.

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:49.200
<v Speaker 5>Sense see that it seems like really uncomfortable and weird

0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:51.280
<v Speaker 5>to me. I understand the walking on a treadmill while

0:02:51.320 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 5>I work, but the sitting with my legs moving and like.

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:57.639
<v Speaker 3>Passively having your legs pushed along by the treadmill.

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:01.400
<v Speaker 2>What good would that do? Keep your knees limber? I

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:02.919
<v Speaker 2>don't know the ideas.

0:03:02.560 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 4>You're supposed to move with the treadmill, not just drag

0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:08.959
<v Speaker 4>your lap, but just moving anything.

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 2>I suppose better is better than sitting still. Whoa, whoa, whoa,

0:03:12.360 --> 0:03:14.920
<v Speaker 2>breaking news, breaking news. I just got a text from

0:03:15.200 --> 0:03:20.240
<v Speaker 2>Don Donald Trump Junior. It was a long text.

0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:23.720
<v Speaker 3>Well what it includes a picture of his bearded countenance.

0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:29.000
<v Speaker 3>Look at that, Hi, Joseph Don Junior. Here as a

0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:31.639
<v Speaker 3>loyal supporter of my father. I'm reaching out on the

0:03:31.760 --> 0:03:34.880
<v Speaker 3>behalf of Senate Republicans because they desperately need your help.

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 3>After reviewing your donor profile, I believe you're the right

0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 3>person for this job. Your donor profile is you have money.

0:03:42.720 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh and I'm certainly a crazed right winger. So he's

0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:51.320
<v Speaker 3>trying to raise money allegedly for the Senate Republicans. That's

0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 3>not super on brand for the Trump family. I don't

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:57.960
<v Speaker 3>get these fundraising emails at a lot of cartons.

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.080
<v Speaker 2>This might be completely a scammed.

0:04:00.160 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 5>Right right right, You have to watch out for that. Yeah, hey,

0:04:03.640 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 5>back to the working out at work thing.

0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 2>Ah, yes, yes, yes.

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.200
<v Speaker 4>So Ka, do you've actually seen people with the treadmills

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.119
<v Speaker 4>under the desk not the treadmills. I saw a woman

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 4>who had a bike like the pedals under her desk.

0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:17.360
<v Speaker 4>She used to have that all disco, but I could

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:18.720
<v Speaker 4>see doing that.

0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:19.000
<v Speaker 7>Oh.

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:21.240
<v Speaker 5>I feel like that's a habit that once you got

0:04:21.279 --> 0:04:24.680
<v Speaker 5>into you could just you could work regularly and it'd.

0:04:24.440 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 2>Be great for you. I think that's a terrific idea.

0:04:27.160 --> 0:04:29.280
<v Speaker 3>I got to try the ball maybe at home because

0:04:29.279 --> 0:04:31.480
<v Speaker 3>the desks are too high in the studio. But I

0:04:31.640 --> 0:04:34.120
<v Speaker 3>have I haven't talked about this on the air at all,

0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.600
<v Speaker 3>but just sitting on the exercise ball thing. But I

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:41.719
<v Speaker 3>am suffering terribly from sciatica at this point. Oh it's

0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.080
<v Speaker 3>it's it's like crazy painful.

0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:46.680
<v Speaker 2>I know what it is and I know it can

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:47.320
<v Speaker 2>be dealt with.

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 3>So I observed many years ago, just to myself that

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.760
<v Speaker 3>fear is the worst component of pain.

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.479
<v Speaker 2>Now, pain itself is bad, but like as a kid.

0:04:59.160 --> 0:05:04.560
<v Speaker 3>Things that that hurt also terrified you because you know

0:05:04.600 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 3>you're supposed to be terrified, so you avoid them so

0:05:06.640 --> 0:05:09.119
<v Speaker 3>you survive. But as an adult, like getting a shot,

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 3>getting dental work done, you know, there are a hundred

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:13.400
<v Speaker 3>things that are they hurt.

0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.280
<v Speaker 2>None of it hurts as much as stubbing your toe

0:05:15.320 --> 0:05:15.760
<v Speaker 2>really hard.

0:05:15.960 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 3>Oh right, that, yeah, that's true, that's that's brutal, but anyway.

0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:21.760
<v Speaker 5>Seventy all the time, and you don't fall apart over it.

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:23.719
<v Speaker 5>When you stub your toe or hit your head and

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:25.720
<v Speaker 5>getting on the cabinet or what all that stuff hurts

0:05:25.720 --> 0:05:26.839
<v Speaker 5>more than getting a shot.

0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 4>And you're time to psych yourself out with those. Yeah,

0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:31.159
<v Speaker 4>but it is the fear. It's the fear part that

0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 4>makes it so right bad.

0:05:32.200 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 3>You know you're gonna be okay in thirty seconds to

0:05:34.960 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 3>two minutes, right, so you don't freak out in the

0:05:36.880 --> 0:05:38.599
<v Speaker 3>same way. And it's the same with me. I know

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:40.320
<v Speaker 3>what sciatic it is, I know how to treat it.

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:44.200
<v Speaker 3>I know eventually it'll be fine, but it's brutally painful,

0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 3>but so I'm trying to work on my core.

0:05:46.320 --> 0:05:48.480
<v Speaker 5>Is that a disease or a back thing? I mean,

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.800
<v Speaker 5>I know it's a back thing, but is it? It's

0:05:50.839 --> 0:05:54.520
<v Speaker 5>pressure on the sciatic nerve general. You know a number

0:05:54.520 --> 0:05:55.800
<v Speaker 5>of things can cause it.

0:05:56.360 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 3>Most commonly, it's that like you're getting older and you

0:06:00.520 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 3>aren't flexible enough and your muscles are so tight they're

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:07.039
<v Speaker 3>in effect pulling your spine in a way that's bad.

0:06:07.080 --> 0:06:08.720
<v Speaker 2>That puts pressure on the sciatic nerve.

0:06:08.880 --> 0:06:10.960
<v Speaker 3>It can also be like a serious slip disc or

0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:13.479
<v Speaker 3>a tumor or something like that. But with the vast

0:06:13.480 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 3>majority of people, you just need to work on fitness

0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:16.599
<v Speaker 3>and flexibility.

0:06:16.800 --> 0:06:19.080
<v Speaker 2>So that's what I'm doing. Fine, I think sitting on

0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.080
<v Speaker 2>the ball might help. I bought a motorcycle from a

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 2>guy who got sciatica and he couldn't ride it anymore. Mmm.

0:06:24.640 --> 0:06:26.760
<v Speaker 5>Wow, So I I really beent him over. I mean

0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:28.360
<v Speaker 5>because he had no choice. He had to sell it

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:30.280
<v Speaker 5>because he was in so much pain. Yeah, that's just

0:06:30.360 --> 0:06:32.560
<v Speaker 5>smart business, Jesus.

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 2>I didn't literally bend him over because that had been

0:06:36.480 --> 0:06:40.960
<v Speaker 2>too painful. Yes, yeah, because he's got siatic thing. Anyway,

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 2>back to the gym. So the idea is you go

0:06:44.560 --> 0:06:48.000
<v Speaker 2>and you hang out all day long and.

0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:50.800
<v Speaker 3>You do work as necessary, but during your breaks you

0:06:51.400 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 3>pump iron or get on the treadmill or whatever, like.

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 2>The people who hang out in the Starbucks all damn

0:06:57.760 --> 0:06:58.160
<v Speaker 2>day long.

0:06:58.320 --> 0:07:00.279
<v Speaker 5>Remember we had the two guys in the newsroom Michael

0:07:00.960 --> 0:07:02.240
<v Speaker 5>throw around the medicine.

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.560
<v Speaker 2>Ball, medicine ball, and they brought donuts every day. Do

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 2>you remember that.

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.159
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, And that was just a mocking all the rest

0:07:08.160 --> 0:07:11.440
<v Speaker 5>of us. That was that was that was a level

0:07:11.520 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 5>beyond Katie. This was before your time. So these guys,

0:07:14.960 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 5>they were super workout fiends and like really buff and

0:07:17.960 --> 0:07:20.360
<v Speaker 5>everything like that. Nice guys, but they would have a

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 5>medicine ball and while they were working in the like newspit,

0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 5>they'd throw the medicine ball back and forth while they

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:27.280
<v Speaker 5>were talking, kind of like what Joe was talking about.

0:07:27.360 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 5>But they also would buy donuts and they wouldn't eat

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:33.080
<v Speaker 5>any of them themselves, just to like prey upon the

0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:35.160
<v Speaker 5>weakness of the rest of us who weren't as fit

0:07:35.200 --> 0:07:35.560
<v Speaker 5>as them.

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I don't like that at all.

0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:42.680
<v Speaker 3>That's that's satanic. Yeah, I mean literally like Satan being

0:07:42.720 --> 0:07:44.280
<v Speaker 3>the Great Temp Tour, you.

0:07:44.280 --> 0:07:48.240
<v Speaker 4>Know, the the gym Planet Fitness yeah, sure, so I

0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:50.920
<v Speaker 4>I this was years ago. I'm hoping they don't still

0:07:50.960 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 4>do this, but I I dropped my membership there because

0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:55.960
<v Speaker 4>I went in and I found out that on Friday.

0:07:55.640 --> 0:07:58.800
<v Speaker 2>Nights they have pizza, Yes, and.

0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:03.400
<v Speaker 4>Pizza place, And then there was a bowl of TUTSI

0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 4>rolls on the way out by the register, and I'm going,

0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:07.760
<v Speaker 4>what are we doing?

0:08:08.680 --> 0:08:09.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what that is.

0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 3>This is exactly like politicians who want to have the problem,

0:08:14.440 --> 0:08:17.760
<v Speaker 3>not solve the problem. Because if you're super fit and

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:19.680
<v Speaker 3>healthy and all, you might think, you know, I don't

0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 3>need to go belong to a gym. I'll just stay

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 3>in reasonable shap.

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:23.800
<v Speaker 2>No, they got to keep you fat.

0:08:24.600 --> 0:08:29.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm into fitness, fitness, pizza into my mouth, yem.

0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:32.400
<v Speaker 3>So here's one GALLO does this by going into this

0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:34.840
<v Speaker 3>space and not coming back home. I'm going through these

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:37.960
<v Speaker 3>movements of the day more intentionally. There's less distraction, and

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:39.720
<v Speaker 3>I'm able to set up work more efficient.

0:08:39.760 --> 0:08:42.199
<v Speaker 2>That's what I'm not doing, going through my movements intentionally.

0:08:42.240 --> 0:08:45.839
<v Speaker 2>I knew it. I didn't want to say anything, but right, Yes.

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.440
<v Speaker 3>Gym's were once wary of letting the remote work vases

0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:51.880
<v Speaker 3>zoom from their lobbies and locker rooms. Now they see

0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:55.880
<v Speaker 3>an opportunity and offering extra desks, offices, and outlets. Some

0:08:55.960 --> 0:08:59.439
<v Speaker 3>are creating coworking spaces to separate the extension court wielders

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:00.960
<v Speaker 3>from the pandex crowd.

0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:02.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you don't have to be that clever.

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.920
<v Speaker 3>Other gyms are charging extra and offering entire floors for

0:09:07.960 --> 0:09:09.640
<v Speaker 3>clients to stay in work all day.

0:09:10.600 --> 0:09:12.560
<v Speaker 5>A lot of what this is pointing out, though, is

0:09:12.600 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 5>the fact that we all could exercise a lot more

0:09:15.920 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 5>than we want. The excuse that I make, I'll just

0:09:18.200 --> 0:09:21.160
<v Speaker 5>focus on myself of being too busy or whatever.

0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:23.360
<v Speaker 2>It's just it's just a lie. I mean, there's all

0:09:23.480 --> 0:09:25.000
<v Speaker 2>kinds of things I could. I could.

0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:27.840
<v Speaker 5>I could be doing curls while I'm watching the news,

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.120
<v Speaker 5>or on the treadmill more often like you do, or whatever,

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.520
<v Speaker 5>and I just don't. I mean, there's lots of stuff

0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 5>we could all do.

0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:36.199
<v Speaker 2>We just don't. You know why, because I don't want to.

0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:38.720
<v Speaker 2>Because it's easier not to. That's why. That's fair. Now,

0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:42.480
<v Speaker 2>that's remarkable honesty. Yeah. My my only tip is start

0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.440
<v Speaker 2>with a little yeah. Yeah, that's that is the key.

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Doing something is so much better than doing nothing. Oh yeah,

0:09:49.960 --> 0:09:50.880
<v Speaker 2>One hundred percent.

0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:54.400
<v Speaker 3>Like every level of doing something makes you healthier, live longer,

0:09:54.440 --> 0:09:57.200
<v Speaker 3>and happier. And so if all you can muster up

0:09:57.280 --> 0:09:57.760
<v Speaker 3>is kind of.

0:09:57.840 --> 0:09:58.960
<v Speaker 2>Me do met.

0:09:59.040 --> 0:10:02.040
<v Speaker 5>I did this to myself recently, and I've been preaching

0:10:02.040 --> 0:10:03.680
<v Speaker 5>this for years, but I did this to myself recently

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 5>when I came out with this workout thing, because I

0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:07.520
<v Speaker 5>got a bench and dumbbells and all this sort of stuff,

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:10.199
<v Speaker 5>and there's like three exercises I was doing every day. Well,

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:12.400
<v Speaker 5>it took like a half an hour, and so I

0:10:12.440 --> 0:10:15.000
<v Speaker 5>did that routinely for like nine months or something like that.

0:10:15.040 --> 0:10:17.080
<v Speaker 5>But then in the half an hour every time and

0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:19.400
<v Speaker 5>the kids got out of school in his business, I'm well,

0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.480
<v Speaker 5>how about instead of doing the whole half hour, you

0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 5>just do one of those things for ten minutes.

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I could do that.

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:29.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it's the if you got to change clothes, drive

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:31.680
<v Speaker 5>to the gym, work out for an hour and a half,

0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:33.959
<v Speaker 5>take a shour, change clothes, drive back, and you got

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 5>like this two hour commitment.

0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.640
<v Speaker 2>No, you can't fit that into your life, right right.

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:41.400
<v Speaker 3>I'm a big fan, And partly it's the nature of

0:10:41.400 --> 0:10:44.560
<v Speaker 3>my job, so maybe easier for me than others. But

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 3>I never exercised that I'm not taking in news or

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:50.080
<v Speaker 3>information or a podcast.

0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:51.680
<v Speaker 2>I can't. I can't.

0:10:51.760 --> 0:10:53.840
<v Speaker 5>I just I don't have the I know plenty of

0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.360
<v Speaker 5>meatheads worked out of gym's all the time.

0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:57.839
<v Speaker 2>Maybe they're healthier than me mentally.

0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:01.040
<v Speaker 5>They probably are, but could just lift weights and do

0:11:01.080 --> 0:11:02.880
<v Speaker 5>all that sort of stuff, just staring at the ceiling

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:03.480
<v Speaker 5>all day long.

0:11:03.559 --> 0:11:08.040
<v Speaker 2>I can't do that. No, it makes me insane. Yeah.

0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:10.600
<v Speaker 3>Now I do like to strip shirtless and look at

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.040
<v Speaker 3>my shaved, oiled body taking I.

0:11:13.000 --> 0:11:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Do a lot of poison in the mirror. One of these.

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, oh that's a good one. One of those.

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Oh look at that one. Yeah, don't ever do that again.

0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 2>This is fantastic. I took a turn. Folks.

0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:26.920
<v Speaker 8>You know, I resent those two guys that we used

0:11:26.960 --> 0:11:29.680
<v Speaker 8>to work with. They'd get themselves strong and they'd fatten

0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:30.480
<v Speaker 8>the rest of us up.

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:31.679
<v Speaker 2>Suck.

0:11:39.520 --> 0:11:42.480
<v Speaker 3>It's the Armstrong E Getdy Show, featuring our podcast One

0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.240

<v Speaker 3>to get podcasts.

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.120
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, as we learned in the hearing yesterday, we have

0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:54.240
<v Speaker 5>been visited by aliens, and one actually came down and

0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:57.200
<v Speaker 5>met with a bunch of Earth leaders about the whole

0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:01.400
<v Speaker 5>human gender situation. So this alien comes to planet Earth,

0:12:01.600 --> 0:12:04.560
<v Speaker 5>particularly in the United States, and finds out that we

0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:09.920
<v Speaker 5>have a thing about genders and more than one gender

0:12:09.960 --> 0:12:12.199
<v Speaker 5>that they hadn't encountered on their planet. That's the setup

0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:15.520
<v Speaker 5>to this Babylon Bee comedy bit. So you're gonna hear

0:12:15.600 --> 0:12:17.880
<v Speaker 5>kind of a weird voice. That's the alien sitting at

0:12:17.880 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 5>the hall, at the head of a boardroom table. I

0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:22.280
<v Speaker 5>don't know how this occurs, but they're like in the

0:12:22.320 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 5>board's kind of the take me to your leader thing.

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 3>He's come into the you know, the halls of power

0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:28.000
<v Speaker 3>and said, all right, I'm in charge.

0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 5>Now, and he's talking to a whole bunch of business

0:12:29.440 --> 0:12:30.600
<v Speaker 5>people or Americans or.

0:12:30.600 --> 0:12:33.520
<v Speaker 2>Something like that. Government officials, government officials. Okay, well here's

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:34.040
<v Speaker 2>how it goes.

0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:38.439
<v Speaker 7>General Floyd, thank you for agreeing to meet with us today. Well,

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:40.200
<v Speaker 7>I'm giving you a chance to beg and pleat.

0:12:40.440 --> 0:12:43.160
<v Speaker 9>I say, we just joy Your planet is my favorite partner.

0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:47.960
<v Speaker 9>The job they've destroyers, we don't deserve it.

0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:53.040
<v Speaker 2>The looks on their faces, it's a hoot.

0:12:53.679 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 10>Perhaps we should start out by introducing ourselves. I'm Chief

0:12:57.760 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 10>of Space Operations, General Foreman.

0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 11>He him Under Secretary of State Angus Miller, he him.

0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:07.720
<v Speaker 12>Chief Diversity and Inclusion Officer, Amanda Williams she her?

0:13:07.880 --> 0:13:11.920
<v Speaker 9>And what exactly is a chief Diversity and Inclusion officer.

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:13.559
<v Speaker 7>It's my job to be a black woman.

0:13:14.280 --> 0:13:16.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, good job.

0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:17.040
<v Speaker 7>Then, And what is this?

0:13:17.600 --> 0:13:18.760
<v Speaker 9>He? Him, she her?

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:20.920
<v Speaker 7>Which you are all speaking?

0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 12>Those are our gender pronouns, so you know which gender

0:13:23.280 --> 0:13:24.480
<v Speaker 12>we identify as.

0:13:25.360 --> 0:13:29.040
<v Speaker 9>I appreciate that, but I am pretty good at telling

0:13:29.040 --> 0:13:32.920
<v Speaker 9>the difference between the two genders a man, man woman.

0:13:34.200 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 7>Now that I was a lucky guess. But there are

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:37.800
<v Speaker 7>way more than just two genders.

0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:38.560
<v Speaker 2>Fascinating.

0:13:39.120 --> 0:13:41.680
<v Speaker 9>We've been probing humans for years and I have only

0:13:41.679 --> 0:13:45.160
<v Speaker 9>discovered the two. How many genders.

0:13:44.760 --> 0:13:48.440
<v Speaker 7>Are there too? It's hard to know. Really, it's changing

0:13:48.520 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 7>all the time.

0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:54.920
<v Speaker 9>So your species is evolving that rapidly remarkable. Perhaps while

0:13:54.920 --> 0:13:57.040
<v Speaker 9>you are sitting here you will grow additional limbs or

0:13:57.280 --> 0:14:01.120
<v Speaker 9>developed the ability to breathe underwater. Well, that's not what

0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.800
<v Speaker 9>we meant. It's too bad. I breathe on don't water.

0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:07.480
<v Speaker 9>It's a lot of fun. If you threw twenty pennies

0:14:07.480 --> 0:14:09.960
<v Speaker 9>into a pool, I could dive down and pick them

0:14:10.000 --> 0:14:10.920
<v Speaker 9>all up without ever.

0:14:11.000 --> 0:14:12.880
<v Speaker 7>What's reservicing pool.

0:14:16.559 --> 0:14:17.320
<v Speaker 2>What no applause?

0:14:17.960 --> 0:14:22.320
<v Speaker 9>So what are these genders and how do they function?

0:14:22.560 --> 0:14:22.960
<v Speaker 7>Function?

0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand.

0:14:25.040 --> 0:14:26.040
<v Speaker 6>Oh yes, on.

0:14:26.480 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 9>My planets, the female gender is the giver of life,

0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:32.720
<v Speaker 9>raising and nurturing our young, preserving our civilization for eons to.

0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:35.800
<v Speaker 7>Come, while the males mostly just mow.

0:14:35.680 --> 0:14:39.280
<v Speaker 9>Our space loans and make multiple trips to space on depout.

0:14:39.520 --> 0:14:43.480
<v Speaker 12>What you're talking about is sex. Gender is something different exactly.

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:47.400
<v Speaker 11>People can identify with genders different than their natal sex

0:14:47.680 --> 0:14:48.720
<v Speaker 11>or with none at all.

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:52.120
<v Speaker 6>But why.

0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 2>It's just the way we feel.

0:14:55.000 --> 0:14:58.160
<v Speaker 7>No, it was the way we're born.

0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 11>Well, of course, a lot of times they don't realiz

0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:02.560
<v Speaker 11>how they were born until someone tells them, someone like

0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.680
<v Speaker 11>a teacher, social media influencer.

0:15:04.920 --> 0:15:08.440
<v Speaker 2>And what exactly are these various genders? You have me

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:10.320
<v Speaker 2>very curious.

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.760
<v Speaker 11>Well, there's non binary, which is someone who identifies as

0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:14.600
<v Speaker 11>both genders.

0:15:14.600 --> 0:15:17.280
<v Speaker 9>Doesn't saying I identify as both genders apply that there

0:15:17.320 --> 0:15:19.200
<v Speaker 9>are only two genders?

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:24.520
<v Speaker 7>No, it's shut up. Actually, it's gender queer.

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:27.040
<v Speaker 12>That is the term that refers to people who identify

0:15:27.080 --> 0:15:28.480
<v Speaker 12>as both genders.

0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:29.640
<v Speaker 7>You know, like my nephew.

0:15:30.240 --> 0:15:34.280
<v Speaker 10>I thought that was gender fluid, like my niece now no,

0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:35.520
<v Speaker 10>that shifts around.

0:15:35.760 --> 0:15:37.960
<v Speaker 7>No, by gender shifts around like my steps on.

0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:38.800
<v Speaker 1>They can.

0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:42.560
<v Speaker 10>Well, oh, unless you're Native American, which case it's too

0:15:42.600 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 10>spirit like my cousin who got into Harvard because they's

0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:49.040
<v Speaker 10>one sixteenth Native Americans.

0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:50.400
<v Speaker 7>Oh, I understand.

0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:54.480
<v Speaker 9>On this planet there are people who are men, and

0:15:54.520 --> 0:15:57.560
<v Speaker 9>people who are women, and people who are mentally ill.

0:15:58.000 --> 0:16:01.600
<v Speaker 12>I can understand that it's confusing. It can be difficult

0:16:01.640 --> 0:16:03.360
<v Speaker 12>to keep track of all the different genders.

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:07.200
<v Speaker 7>There's so many of them. There's there's gender vague, there's.

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:11.080
<v Speaker 12>Gray gender, demigender, audi gender, omnigender, polygender, and about ten

0:16:11.120 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 12>different kinds of trands. And those are just the ones

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:16.200
<v Speaker 12>that my nephew has identified as in the last month.

0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:19.920
<v Speaker 12>I was also by gender, which is two genders, those

0:16:19.960 --> 0:16:23.360
<v Speaker 12>genders being male and female, or a combination of all genders,

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:27.160
<v Speaker 12>including a gender which is no gender at all, soually

0:16:27.280 --> 0:16:31.520
<v Speaker 12>simultaneously be no gender at all plus a gender.

0:16:32.320 --> 0:16:32.960
<v Speaker 2>It's pretty cool.

0:16:33.040 --> 0:16:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Huh.

0:16:34.000 --> 0:16:36.640
<v Speaker 7>The planet has no sign of intelligent life.

0:16:36.920 --> 0:16:39.440
<v Speaker 9>Official recommendation destroyed.

0:16:39.600 --> 0:16:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, please don't destroy it.

0:16:41.040 --> 0:16:42.000
<v Speaker 7>We don't deserve it.

0:16:44.200 --> 0:16:50.000
<v Speaker 5>Look, my favorite part of that whole thing is when

0:16:50.040 --> 0:16:59.000
<v Speaker 5>they're laying out of that stuff and he says, why.

0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:01.200
<v Speaker 2>The question no one can answer. I can answer it.

0:17:01.200 --> 0:17:05.960
<v Speaker 3>It's so young adolescents feel special and get praised by

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:10.440
<v Speaker 3>their mentors. I'm not just a regular dude anymore. I'm

0:17:10.720 --> 0:17:14.959
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, gender fluid. Oh Joe, that's so wonderful.

0:17:15.040 --> 0:17:17.600
<v Speaker 3>We'll support you. You're so brave.

0:17:19.000 --> 0:17:21.880
<v Speaker 2>Come on, why.

0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:28.240
<v Speaker 3>Please do not use gendered language to address everyone?

0:17:28.480 --> 0:17:31.000

0:17:58.359 --> 0:18:01.560
<v Speaker 5>Then I have an admission of all Slash complained about

0:18:01.600 --> 0:18:05.159
<v Speaker 5>myself when we thought we'd bring back one of the

0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:05.639
<v Speaker 5>best thing.

0:18:05.720 --> 0:18:06.679
<v Speaker 2>What do you call me? You know?

0:18:06.760 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 3>Before I get to that, it occurs to me that

0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:11.840
<v Speaker 3>intro could have been to talk about Elton John because,

0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:15.560
<v Speaker 3>as I disclosed during the show, when I'd heard he'd

0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.639
<v Speaker 3>played his last show allegedly, you know this, it's rock stars.

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:23.040
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes they unretire, but he's seventy six. I went back

0:18:23.040 --> 0:18:25.680
<v Speaker 3>and listened I saw on YouTube some shows from the

0:18:25.720 --> 0:18:27.520
<v Speaker 3>first tour I saw him on, which I think was

0:18:27.600 --> 0:18:30.679
<v Speaker 3>nineteen eighty, might have been eighty one, and how blown

0:18:30.720 --> 0:18:34.320
<v Speaker 3>away I was at the time by Elton but his band,

0:18:34.960 --> 0:18:37.240
<v Speaker 3>how great they were. I was playing music at the time,

0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:41.760
<v Speaker 3>and I was coming off, you know, like seeing the Stones,

0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:45.320
<v Speaker 3>who didn't even attempt the harmonies that make their records

0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:48.720
<v Speaker 3>so incredible. Keith couldn't be bothered to sing his parts

0:18:48.720 --> 0:18:51.800
<v Speaker 3>some of the times, those giant, soaring harmonies like you know,

0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:54.760
<v Speaker 3>the tumbledice are all down the line or stuff like that.

0:18:54.920 --> 0:18:57.080
<v Speaker 2>They didn't have any backup singers. They didn't They would

0:18:57.119 --> 0:18:59.040
<v Speaker 2>just have mixed in, Oh damn the lune.

0:18:59.680 --> 0:19:03.920
<v Speaker 3>And as a guy who's long been into harmonies, it

0:19:04.080 --> 0:19:06.320
<v Speaker 3>just I hated that. So then I go to see

0:19:06.359 --> 0:19:11.360
<v Speaker 3>Elton John and his band full throated like a damn choir,

0:19:11.480 --> 0:19:14.600
<v Speaker 3>and it's just the guys on stage singing all those

0:19:14.640 --> 0:19:18.479
<v Speaker 3>great songs with all those great choruses and just playing

0:19:18.880 --> 0:19:21.000
<v Speaker 3>out of the rock and roll, and I thought, Wow,

0:19:21.040 --> 0:19:23.600
<v Speaker 3>what a great band. So anyway, tip of the cap, Elton,

0:19:24.280 --> 0:19:28.160
<v Speaker 3>you chubby little legend, you what a great band.

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:30.200
<v Speaker 2>He really looks like an old lesbian at this point

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.919
<v Speaker 2>he does. He does. It's not a complaint, it's just

0:19:33.960 --> 0:19:34.639
<v Speaker 2>what he looks like.

0:19:34.920 --> 0:19:38.040
<v Speaker 3>I happen to know and love a couple of old lesbians,

0:19:38.080 --> 0:19:40.520
<v Speaker 3>so I have said many times they are my favorite people,

0:19:41.160 --> 0:19:41.840
<v Speaker 3>old lesbians.

0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:44.600
<v Speaker 5>Your favorite people are old lesbians. Yes, huh, that's been

0:19:44.600 --> 0:19:45.200
<v Speaker 5>my experience.

0:19:45.640 --> 0:19:49.160
<v Speaker 3>Really interesting anyway, But we're not talking about Elton John

0:19:49.280 --> 0:19:52.000
<v Speaker 3>or old lesbians. Well clearly who we are talking about

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Elton John. But the introduction wasn't talking about Elton John.

0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:59.720
<v Speaker 3>It was a reference to during the show, Ryan Long's

0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:05.120
<v Speaker 3>brilliant video when wokes and racists agree on everything and

0:20:05.200 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 3>we're going to try to squeeze it in the show,

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:08.240
<v Speaker 3>but we didn't get to it.

0:20:08.320 --> 0:20:10.280
<v Speaker 5>And you called this one of the best pieces of

0:20:10.520 --> 0:20:12.600
<v Speaker 5>satire you've ever heard, which I would agree.

0:20:12.800 --> 0:20:15.480
<v Speaker 2>I think it's underappreciated. I think it is.

0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:19.320
<v Speaker 3>I think it's like at the very very top level

0:20:19.680 --> 0:20:24.240
<v Speaker 3>of American socio political comment ever. Now, I've seen a

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:26.320
<v Speaker 3>bunch of his videos, some of them are just good,

0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:29.520
<v Speaker 3>but this one is this is his Stairway to Heaven.

0:20:30.280 --> 0:20:33.280
<v Speaker 3>Ladies and gentlemen, Ryan Long put me and bradforst Matt.

0:20:33.320 --> 0:20:35.159
<v Speaker 13>I didn't think we'd get along, But turns out we

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:37.240
<v Speaker 13>kind of agree on everything. Your racial identity is the

0:20:37.280 --> 0:20:38.080
<v Speaker 13>most important thing.

0:20:38.240 --> 0:20:39.879
<v Speaker 2>Everything should be looked at through the lens of race.

0:20:39.960 --> 0:20:40.920
<v Speaker 9>Thinks you owe me a coke.

0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:42.960
<v Speaker 2>Dam We both have a lot of opinions about people

0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.440
<v Speaker 2>of color, even though we barely know. I say colored people,

0:20:45.520 --> 0:20:45.880
<v Speaker 2>But as.

0:20:45.840 --> 0:20:48.240
<v Speaker 13>Long as we're classifying them, we both think minorities are

0:20:48.280 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 13>a united group who think the same, enact the same, and.

0:20:50.680 --> 0:20:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Both the same. You don't want to lose your blackguard.

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:53.159
<v Speaker 11>Sorry, I don't know.

0:20:53.160 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 2>I just think we should roll back.

0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:56.200
<v Speaker 13>Discrimination laws so we can hire days on race again.

0:20:56.320 --> 0:20:58.159
<v Speaker 2>Thinks now you owe me a coke? Hey, tell them

0:20:58.160 --> 0:20:59.080
<v Speaker 2>what you told me yesterday.

0:20:59.240 --> 0:21:01.639
<v Speaker 11>White actors youd only do voices for a white cartoon

0:21:01.720 --> 0:21:03.840
<v Speaker 11>characters and saying that for years stick to your own.

0:21:03.840 --> 0:21:06.320
<v Speaker 2>Us white people, we have so much privilege. I agree,

0:21:06.320 --> 0:21:07.520
<v Speaker 2>and it's a privilege to be white.

0:21:07.640 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 13>Ask him about interracial dating. All I say is that

0:21:09.880 --> 0:21:12.560
<v Speaker 13>black men who date white women have internalized racism, and

0:21:12.600 --> 0:21:14.840
<v Speaker 13>white men that date ethnic women are fetishizing them.

0:21:14.880 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 7>Guys against interracial dating? Yeah?

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:17.280
<v Speaker 13>Like, am I being pranked?

0:21:17.320 --> 0:21:18.399
<v Speaker 2>Did Boomor put you up to this?

0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:19.879
<v Speaker 7>Ugh? You know what?

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Taco place is white owned.

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:22.760
<v Speaker 13>White people should be making white food.

0:21:22.760 --> 0:21:25.479
<v Speaker 2>It's a crap Macdarni and chese. No seasoning, not even solved.

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:26.480
<v Speaker 2>It's like he's a mind reader.

0:21:26.480 --> 0:21:28.439
<v Speaker 13>I mean, I've been pushing for segregation forever, and my

0:21:28.520 --> 0:21:31.639
<v Speaker 13>man does what. I created an improv comedy show exclusively

0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:34.440
<v Speaker 13>for ethnic Beefic guy segregates comedy on my birthday.

0:21:34.480 --> 0:21:36.960
<v Speaker 5>White people need to stop wearing dreadlocks, and they stop

0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 5>appropriating black people's music.

0:21:38.640 --> 0:21:40.840
<v Speaker 13>Shaved heads and country music the way gotten tended.

0:21:41.119 --> 0:21:43.320
<v Speaker 2>You know, all white people are racist. I'm listening.

0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:45.440
<v Speaker 8>Even if you have a black wife or a black

0:21:45.480 --> 0:21:47.119
<v Speaker 8>friend group, you're still really racist.

0:21:47.240 --> 0:21:48.840
<v Speaker 13>You know, we just kicked it out of the organization for

0:21:48.880 --> 0:21:50.679
<v Speaker 13>having a black girlfriend. But if you can promise me

0:21:50.720 --> 0:21:52.919
<v Speaker 13>he's still really racist, we'll consider letting him back in.

0:21:53.119 --> 0:21:55.040
<v Speaker 13>Black people should only show about black businesses.

0:21:55.440 --> 0:21:57.320
<v Speaker 5>I guess the only thing we really disagree about is

0:21:57.359 --> 0:21:58.280
<v Speaker 5>I think white people are the.

0:21:58.320 --> 0:21:58.960
<v Speaker 6>Root of all evil.

0:21:59.119 --> 0:21:59.840
<v Speaker 2>But what did I tell you?

0:21:59.840 --> 0:22:00.000
<v Speaker 1>Though?

0:22:00.119 --> 0:22:01.680
<v Speaker 13>If we can narrow that down to a certain group

0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:03.560
<v Speaker 13>of tiny how did white people? I think we can

0:22:03.600 --> 0:22:06.800
<v Speaker 13>come to an understanding. Technically, I don't consider Jewish people

0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:07.679
<v Speaker 13>neither do I.

0:22:08.800 --> 0:22:12.320
<v Speaker 2>When racist wokes and racists agree on everything, Ryan Long.

0:22:13.280 --> 0:22:20.000
<v Speaker 5>Why is that not more discussed that? Uh, when I

0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 5>was a little kid, they had dorms at colleges that

0:22:23.680 --> 0:22:26.840
<v Speaker 5>were blacks only and whites only. Then that was decided

0:22:26.880 --> 0:22:31.360
<v Speaker 5>to be a horror. Then they were mixed together, and

0:22:31.400 --> 0:22:33.879
<v Speaker 5>now we're going with dorms that are blacks only or

0:22:33.920 --> 0:22:37.640
<v Speaker 5>whites only again and seen as progress or a good thing.

0:22:38.119 --> 0:22:40.320
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think part of the reason is, and we

0:22:40.520 --> 0:22:44.960
<v Speaker 3>talked about this a lot hour two of the Monday

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:46.560
<v Speaker 3>Show if you want to grab the Armstrong and get

0:22:46.600 --> 0:22:49.679
<v Speaker 3>you on demand podcast, that a lot of it is

0:22:50.119 --> 0:22:54.440
<v Speaker 3>neo Marxism, it's cultural Marxism, and it's racial. It's actually

0:22:54.840 --> 0:22:59.639
<v Speaker 3>it's a method of grabbing political power that masquerades as

0:22:59.760 --> 0:23:05.360
<v Speaker 3>racial concern. And so the flaming, idiotic inconsistency of it there.

0:23:06.040 --> 0:23:08.240
<v Speaker 3>The left is not going to address those because that's

0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:12.720
<v Speaker 3>not what they're going for anyway, and because the mainstream

0:23:12.760 --> 0:23:15.480
<v Speaker 3>media sees themselves aligned with the left and are frequently

0:23:15.600 --> 0:23:18.600
<v Speaker 3>duped into thinking, yes, this is about race, primarily they

0:23:18.600 --> 0:23:19.639
<v Speaker 3>don't want to talk about it.

0:23:21.040 --> 0:23:23.800
<v Speaker 5>So I saw Elton John. I'm trying to think what

0:23:23.920 --> 0:23:28.119
<v Speaker 5>year it was, two thousand.

0:23:30.000 --> 0:23:31.200
<v Speaker 2>Seven or something like that.

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:34.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I saw him at one point during the kind

0:23:34.920 --> 0:23:37.399
<v Speaker 3>of the comeback years.

0:23:37.560 --> 0:23:40.480
<v Speaker 5>I saw him in San Jose the hockey rink, and

0:23:41.280 --> 0:23:45.760
<v Speaker 5>it was it was real good. It wasn't mind blowing,

0:23:45.840 --> 0:23:47.959
<v Speaker 5>so I'm I might have been too old for that.

0:23:48.680 --> 0:23:50.879
<v Speaker 5>The thing that stands out in my mind the most

0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 5>is the crowd was just loving all the greatest hits

0:23:53.080 --> 0:23:56.440
<v Speaker 5>so much, and then he jumped in with stuff from

0:23:56.440 --> 0:23:58.920
<v Speaker 5>his new album and just killed the mood for everyone.

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:03.640
<v Speaker 5>Here's something from my new album, and everybody groans.

0:24:03.920 --> 0:24:04.800
<v Speaker 2>H R.

0:24:05.000 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 5>Damn creative artists to try to create new art, please,

0:24:08.320 --> 0:24:10.480
<v Speaker 5>where do they get off? I know that's a weird thing,

0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:14.240
<v Speaker 5>isn't that. We'll decide when you're through creating. I've thought

0:24:14.240 --> 0:24:18.879
<v Speaker 5>this myself when I'm seeing musicians. This song, the song

0:24:18.920 --> 0:24:20.679
<v Speaker 5>that I want him to play was new to me

0:24:20.760 --> 0:24:23.480
<v Speaker 5>at one point. That was a new song at one point,

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:27.080
<v Speaker 5>So maybe this will be great, although so seldom it is.

0:24:27.520 --> 0:24:29.800
<v Speaker 5>And the songs that he played that were new, nobody

0:24:29.840 --> 0:24:31.840
<v Speaker 5>dug them at all and I don't even remember them,

0:24:31.880 --> 0:24:33.119
<v Speaker 5>and they disappeared.

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:33.160
<v Speaker 2>Into the ether.

0:24:34.000 --> 0:24:36.639
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Tiny Dancer, we're here. We spent our money to

0:24:36.640 --> 0:24:39.800
<v Speaker 5>hear tiny dnswer, hold me closer, tiny dancer.

0:24:41.720 --> 0:24:42.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, I've.

0:24:42.280 --> 0:24:45.960
<v Speaker 3>Had bands, individual artists.

0:24:46.080 --> 0:24:48.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't like the term artists. I find it pretentious.

0:24:48.200 --> 0:24:53.879
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, songwriters that I love, and I will come to

0:24:53.920 --> 0:24:56.480
<v Speaker 3>the conclusion, Okay, you're out of ideas.

0:24:57.040 --> 0:24:58.480
<v Speaker 2>You had some really great ideas.

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:01.439
<v Speaker 3>Now you're either repeating yourself where this new thing just

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:02.480
<v Speaker 3>doesn't work.

0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:05.360
<v Speaker 2>Which is fine. That's what Billy Joel did.

0:25:05.400 --> 0:25:07.920
<v Speaker 5>He stopped putting out music, what thirty some years ago,

0:25:07.960 --> 0:25:10.800
<v Speaker 5>putting new music. Yeah, he hasn't written a new song

0:25:10.920 --> 0:25:13.200
<v Speaker 5>like thirty some years. And he said, I just think

0:25:13.240 --> 0:25:15.320
<v Speaker 5>I was done. I just I don't think I had

0:25:15.359 --> 0:25:18.159
<v Speaker 5>anything left to say. And people liked my old song.

0:25:18.119 --> 0:25:21.320
<v Speaker 2>So yeah, fair enough, fair enough.

0:25:21.480 --> 0:25:24.200
<v Speaker 3>And then I read a interview with the John Mellencamp,

0:25:24.480 --> 0:25:28.760
<v Speaker 3>who's every time i'd say his name, I'm tempted to

0:25:28.760 --> 0:25:36.720
<v Speaker 3>call him John mellonhead because I've arrested adolescens. He didn

0:25:36.720 --> 0:25:38.960
<v Speaker 3>an interview the other day where he said he stopped

0:25:39.040 --> 0:25:42.400
<v Speaker 3>playing for years and years and years because he had

0:25:42.400 --> 0:25:45.600
<v Speaker 3>no interest in being a human jukebox. He would, you know,

0:25:46.160 --> 0:25:48.360
<v Speaker 3>play really good stuff he'd come up with, nobody had

0:25:48.400 --> 0:25:50.240
<v Speaker 3>any interest in it, and he could bang out the

0:25:50.240 --> 0:25:53.399
<v Speaker 3>old hits and play him crappy and it didn't matter.

0:25:54.080 --> 0:25:55.000
<v Speaker 2>He didn't even have to.

0:25:55.320 --> 0:25:57.879
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and he thought, no, what, just go listen to

0:25:58.000 --> 0:26:01.240
<v Speaker 3>the CD, go listen to the radio. I'm not gonna

0:26:01.240 --> 0:26:05.000
<v Speaker 3>prance about up here. If you have no interest in music,

0:26:05.040 --> 0:26:06.159
<v Speaker 3>you just want to hear the hits.

0:26:06.280 --> 0:26:09.560
<v Speaker 5>Wow, that is the opposite of the Rolling Stones philosophy.

0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna barely go through the motions.

0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:15.240
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna give you twenty five percent of what this

0:26:15.359 --> 0:26:17.720
<v Speaker 5>song is. If you listen to the record, you're gonna

0:26:17.720 --> 0:26:21.280
<v Speaker 5>pay a ton for it. And we're perfectly fine with that. Well,

0:26:21.320 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 5>that was the old Stones.

0:26:22.480 --> 0:26:27.480
<v Speaker 3>Now the Stones sound fantastic in spite of them being octagenarians.

0:26:27.840 --> 0:26:32.560
<v Speaker 3>Their shows sound great now. But anyway, that's interesting.

0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:37.120
<v Speaker 5>Some people are perfectly okay with that, and I don't

0:26:37.160 --> 0:26:39.439
<v Speaker 5>blame them. You know, if the fans are enjoying themselves,

0:26:39.480 --> 0:26:41.800
<v Speaker 5>you should try you should try to sound your best.

0:26:42.160 --> 0:26:44.200
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, but.

0:26:43.720 --> 0:26:45.600
<v Speaker 5>But if the fans are fine with seeing, you know,

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.600
<v Speaker 5>hearing their greatest hits live and in person, I don't know,

0:26:49.040 --> 0:26:49.600
<v Speaker 5>it seems well.

0:26:49.760 --> 0:26:51.920
<v Speaker 3>And at the same time, if John Mellencamp doesn't want

0:26:51.920 --> 0:26:52.719
<v Speaker 3>to do that, don't do that.

0:26:53.040 --> 0:26:53.679
<v Speaker 2>You don't have to.

0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:57.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't find that pretentious or mean or wrong or whatever.

0:26:57.760 --> 0:27:01.600
<v Speaker 3>It's a voluntary occupation. Go paint and hang out with

0:27:01.640 --> 0:27:02.639
<v Speaker 3>your fifth wife.

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:05.119
<v Speaker 5>And because music was structured so much differently, he's got

0:27:05.200 --> 0:27:06.080
<v Speaker 5>more money than God.

0:27:06.160 --> 0:27:07.960
<v Speaker 2>Anyway. I think about that all the time.

0:27:08.040 --> 0:27:12.080
<v Speaker 5>Some of these super wealthy aging musicians or whatever, how

0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:14.160
<v Speaker 5>much money would they have made in the modern era?

0:27:14.359 --> 0:27:16.879
<v Speaker 5>Would they be working at the grocery store. I mean,

0:27:16.920 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 5>they have several big hits. You can think of lots

0:27:19.600 --> 0:27:21.280
<v Speaker 5>of people that only had a couple of hits. They'd

0:27:21.320 --> 0:27:24.280
<v Speaker 5>be working at the grocery store or be insurance agents

0:27:24.320 --> 0:27:27.720
<v Speaker 5>or something right now, even with those giant hits, because they'd.

0:27:27.640 --> 0:27:29.400
<v Speaker 2>Made no money, right Yeah.

0:27:29.400 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 3>I Actually, on the other end of it, I know

0:27:31.760 --> 0:27:35.159
<v Speaker 3>some people in bands that are if they had come

0:27:35.240 --> 0:27:37.680
<v Speaker 3>along in the seventies, they would be very, very wealthy,

0:27:38.480 --> 0:27:41.399
<v Speaker 3>and now they're continuing to tour and playing bars and

0:27:41.440 --> 0:27:44.439
<v Speaker 3>stuff because they need the money, or giving piano lessons

0:27:44.520 --> 0:27:45.240
<v Speaker 3>between tours.

0:27:45.280 --> 0:27:47.520
<v Speaker 2>Literally, isn't that something? Yeah?

0:27:47.720 --> 0:27:50.040
<v Speaker 5>Man, if you could have if you could have two

0:27:50.320 --> 0:27:52.960
<v Speaker 5>three top forty hits in the eighties, you were set

0:27:53.000 --> 0:27:53.560
<v Speaker 5>for life.

0:27:54.119 --> 0:27:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Now forget it.

0:27:55.119 --> 0:27:58.600
<v Speaker 5>No, you've got some money, you can tour around, work

0:27:58.680 --> 0:28:00.359
<v Speaker 5>really hard, live off that for a while while.

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:02.960
<v Speaker 2>But oh times change.

0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:06.920
<v Speaker 8>Hey, Jack, you mentioned that some people are throwing things

0:28:06.920 --> 0:28:09.160
<v Speaker 8>that artists, I mean, other the crowd.

0:28:09.160 --> 0:28:09.960
<v Speaker 2>They're throwing things.

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:13.919
<v Speaker 8>At musicians now right, political speeches that would cause me

0:28:13.960 --> 0:28:15.359
<v Speaker 8>to throw stuff.

0:28:15.640 --> 0:28:17.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I don't think that's what they're doing, though. It's

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:19.520
<v Speaker 5>just in the middle of songs. They just like it's

0:28:19.760 --> 0:28:21.760
<v Speaker 5>popular to throw cell phones with people. A couple people

0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:24.159
<v Speaker 5>have been hitting the face cell phones. Yeah, they're a

0:28:24.160 --> 0:28:27.840
<v Speaker 5>little expensive art and I'm not throwing my fourteen hundred

0:28:27.880 --> 0:28:28.840
<v Speaker 5>dollars phone at you.

0:28:30.240 --> 0:28:32.320
<v Speaker 2>But somebody got hit in the face the other day.

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:33.840
<v Speaker 2>Several people have in recent weeks.

0:28:34.160 --> 0:28:35.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that chick got hit in the face and it

0:28:36.000 --> 0:28:37.720
<v Speaker 4>ended up in four stitches on her eyebrow.

0:28:38.080 --> 0:28:38.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:28:38.760 --> 0:28:41.280
<v Speaker 3>Oh wow, Yeah I would. I would have my security

0:28:41.320 --> 0:28:44.320
<v Speaker 3>goons beat that person down. Sorry, I realized that's a

0:28:44.400 --> 0:28:47.400
<v Speaker 3>terrible thing to say out loud. Oh, the internet got

0:28:47.440 --> 0:28:49.280
<v Speaker 3>a hold of him. I think he lost his job

0:28:49.320 --> 0:28:51.320
<v Speaker 3>and all sorts of stuff. Oh, they just take his

0:28:51.360 --> 0:28:53.160
<v Speaker 3>profile and his personal info and put it out. No,

0:28:53.520 --> 0:28:55.880
<v Speaker 3>he shouldn't lose his job. He should just be punched

0:28:55.920 --> 0:28:57.440
<v Speaker 3>in the head three or fourteen.

0:28:57.200 --> 0:28:59.920
<v Speaker 5>The Internet got a hold of him. He loses his job.

0:29:00.080 --> 0:29:02.440
<v Speaker 5>He's a pariah. Probably have to move, change his name,

0:29:02.480 --> 0:29:03.880
<v Speaker 5>get a fake mustache, whole thing.

0:29:04.360 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 2>That's a great phrase, by the way, the Internet got

0:29:06.600 --> 0:29:07.160
<v Speaker 2>ahold of him.

0:29:07.200 --> 0:29:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, do you talk about brutality.

0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:11.400
<v Speaker 2>I'd rather be punching you, No kidding.

0:29:11.920 --> 0:29:15.000

0:29:54.720 --> 0:29:56.240
<v Speaker 3>free to any kid who wants to wear one.

0:29:56.480 --> 0:29:59.240
<v Speaker 4>Yes, Ken, if you look at his backpack, the kid's

0:29:59.240 --> 0:30:03.360
<v Speaker 4>obviously running for some position. I think it said vice

0:30:03.400 --> 0:30:05.600
<v Speaker 4>president of his class. So he has a bunch of

0:30:05.640 --> 0:30:09.200
<v Speaker 4>political patches on his backpack to go with his little

0:30:09.200 --> 0:30:10.080
<v Speaker 4>campaign poster.

0:30:10.880 --> 0:30:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Just to set the scene.

0:30:12.440 --> 0:30:15.920
<v Speaker 6>Longer recesses vote for Jimmy you know whatever.

0:30:16.120 --> 0:30:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Hey for offending machines.

0:30:17.480 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 8>We also have a clip of the mom confronting the

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:20.720
<v Speaker 8>teacher as well.

0:30:20.840 --> 0:30:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that clip six?

0:30:22.560 --> 0:30:22.760
<v Speaker 1>Yes?

0:30:22.760 --> 0:30:24.640
<v Speaker 2>It is. Well that's what I'm leading up to.

0:30:24.880 --> 0:30:31.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, okay, why don't you Why don't you, mic I'm

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:32.560
<v Speaker 3>so sorry.

0:30:32.680 --> 0:30:35.080
<v Speaker 2>I was misled by my superior. I think here's the

0:30:35.120 --> 0:30:38.080
<v Speaker 2>pressures I'm under. I explode. I think you're treading on him,

0:30:38.160 --> 0:30:45.200
<v Speaker 2>is what you're doing? Guilty? Well well played, so well played?

0:30:45.320 --> 0:30:45.920
<v Speaker 2>All right, Michael.

0:30:46.000 --> 0:30:50.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's listen to Mom talking to the aforementioned woke teacher.

0:30:50.360 --> 0:30:51.920
<v Speaker 7>He I mean he is able to go.

0:30:52.040 --> 0:30:53.400
<v Speaker 2>I was actually just telling him.

0:30:53.280 --> 0:30:57.880
<v Speaker 7>Like I was upset that he's missing so much. So

0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:01.480
<v Speaker 7>I asked Dad go back to class, like I just

0:31:01.560 --> 0:31:04.120
<v Speaker 7>wanted to go back to class. That can't go back

0:31:04.320 --> 0:31:05.200
<v Speaker 7>if so catch on it.

0:31:05.440 --> 0:31:07.480
<v Speaker 2>We can't have that in and a round other kids.

0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:08.520
<v Speaker 11>So that's what I was trying that.

0:31:08.640 --> 0:31:10.440
<v Speaker 7>He said, you were close, so I was like, oh, oh, yeah,

0:31:10.480 --> 0:31:10.920
<v Speaker 7>it has.

0:31:10.840 --> 0:31:12.040
<v Speaker 5>Nothing to do with slavery.

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:14.040
<v Speaker 7>That's like the Revolutionary War patch.

0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:15.800
<v Speaker 2>That was when they were fighting the British.

0:31:15.840 --> 0:31:19.400
<v Speaker 3>So that was mom, I assume, yeah, had her phone

0:31:19.440 --> 0:31:22.400
<v Speaker 3>out with the ignoramus teacher.

0:31:22.720 --> 0:31:25.840
<v Speaker 4>From from there, the clip continues to that that jack

0:31:26.080 --> 0:31:28.320
<v Speaker 4>teacher just saying, well, I'll have to direct you to

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:30.680
<v Speaker 4>the district. And then she said the name of whoever

0:31:30.720 --> 0:31:33.120
<v Speaker 4>it was, she asked a contact, and it was just yeah,

0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:35.640
<v Speaker 4>it'sested you never this smug look on her face.

0:31:35.960 --> 0:31:38.520
<v Speaker 5>If I'm the teacher, well, first, well I wouldn't believe that.

0:31:38.560 --> 0:31:40.520
<v Speaker 5>But if I'm the teacher somebody gets out their phone

0:31:40.520 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 5>and I'm on this topic, I'm referring it to someone.

0:31:43.040 --> 0:31:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Above me, I would yell because it ain't gonna go

0:31:45.760 --> 0:31:46.680
<v Speaker 2>well no matter what happens.

0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:49.240
<v Speaker 3>Well she did, and after a couple of days the

0:31:49.280 --> 0:31:51.680
<v Speaker 3>district said, yeah, a kid can wear the patch, of

0:31:51.720 --> 0:31:56.160
<v Speaker 3>course he can. And then interestingly enough, the governor of

0:31:56.280 --> 0:32:01.200
<v Speaker 3>Colorado tweeted Obviously, the Gadsden flag is a proud symbol

0:32:01.240 --> 0:32:04.200
<v Speaker 3>of the American Revolution and an iconic warning to Britain

0:32:04.320 --> 0:32:07.480
<v Speaker 3>or any government not to violate the liberties of Americans.

0:32:07.960 --> 0:32:12.120
<v Speaker 3>It appears on popular American medallions and challenge coins through today,

0:32:12.200 --> 0:32:15.440
<v Speaker 3>and Ben Franklin also adopted it to symbolize the Union

0:32:15.480 --> 0:32:18.440
<v Speaker 3>of the Thirteen Colonies. It's a great teaching moment for

0:32:18.480 --> 0:32:19.360
<v Speaker 3>a history lesson.

0:32:19.480 --> 0:32:23.360
<v Speaker 5>Are you telling me that child's nut pro slavery, because

0:32:23.360 --> 0:32:26.320
<v Speaker 5>that's what I assumed a teacher needs a history lesson

0:32:26.320 --> 0:32:28.480
<v Speaker 5>that that little kid, the fifth grader, was running on

0:32:28.520 --> 0:32:31.800
<v Speaker 5>a up with slavery platform to be class president.

0:32:33.400 --> 0:32:36.920
<v Speaker 3>Show me an American school that is not an indoctrination

0:32:37.120 --> 0:32:38.760
<v Speaker 3>factory for left wing ideas.

0:32:38.920 --> 0:32:43.680
<v Speaker 6>There are some I want free desserts at lunch and

0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:54.240
<v Speaker 6>chattel slavery. Homework is optional, labor will be uncompensated.

0:33:01.000 --> 0:33:06.719
<v Speaker 3>Wow wow, but how many classrooms are flying your super

0:33:06.840 --> 0:33:10.680
<v Speaker 3>rainbow flag. I mean this rainbow that also includes the

0:33:10.760 --> 0:33:13.640
<v Speaker 3>transgender colors and the binary colors and the rest of it,

0:33:14.040 --> 0:33:15.080
<v Speaker 3>freaking all of them.

0:33:15.760 --> 0:33:18.160
<v Speaker 5>Imagine the trouble you're in if you say we don't

0:33:18.160 --> 0:33:20.720
<v Speaker 5>want political flags in our classroom, if you kick that

0:33:20.720 --> 0:33:21.400
<v Speaker 5>one out.

0:33:21.640 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god.

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:30.240
<v Speaker 3>I try not to let it make me like frustrated, angry,

0:33:30.280 --> 0:33:32.400
<v Speaker 3>because I have the outlet of the show and podcast

0:33:32.440 --> 0:33:38.240
<v Speaker 3>and everything. I so sympathize with parents who don't have

0:33:38.360 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 3>this sort of outlet and are just enraged at what's happening.

0:33:41.760 --> 0:33:43.440
<v Speaker 3>And they don't have the money to send their kid

0:33:43.480 --> 0:33:45.960
<v Speaker 3>to a private school, and they might not have the

0:33:46.000 --> 0:33:47.360
<v Speaker 3>time to homeschool them, so.

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:51.360
<v Speaker 2>What are they supposed to do? God, this pisses me off.

0:33:51.520 --> 0:33:56.800
<v Speaker 5>I heard this from a child of grade school age

0:33:57.280 --> 0:34:00.640
<v Speaker 5>that when they say the pledge of a legiance every morning,

0:34:00.680 --> 0:34:03.360
<v Speaker 5>there are a few kids who say, I pledge allegiance

0:34:03.440 --> 0:34:08.640
<v Speaker 5>to the Pride flag everywhere. But not certain whether that's

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 5>a sarcastic why is this flag always in my face commentary?

0:34:15.200 --> 0:34:17.239
<v Speaker 5>Or I don't know what the you know, I don't

0:34:17.280 --> 0:34:19.000
<v Speaker 5>know what the gesture means.

0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:21.600
<v Speaker 2>It's the double reverse, yeah exactly? It might be.

0:34:21.800 --> 0:34:26.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because the flag's hanging up on the wall next

0:34:26.640 --> 0:34:29.399
<v Speaker 5>to the US flag, so you.

0:34:29.360 --> 0:34:33.160
<v Speaker 3>Know, then you know the lives of TikTok among others.

0:34:33.200 --> 0:34:36.080
<v Speaker 3>I've seen a handful of a teacher's bragging that they've

0:34:36.120 --> 0:34:38.840
<v Speaker 3>taken down the American flag. The only flag in this

0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:41.080
<v Speaker 3>classroom is the Pride flag.

0:34:41.160 --> 0:34:43.680
<v Speaker 4>Now, oh yeah, because that's the other flag that was

0:34:43.719 --> 0:34:47.520
<v Speaker 4>going around viraln TikTok for being a symbol of slavery

0:34:47.880 --> 0:34:49.319
<v Speaker 4>was the American flag.

0:34:49.440 --> 0:34:51.960
<v Speaker 2>People were losing it about that, right.

0:34:51.600 --> 0:34:54.560
<v Speaker 5>Yes, sixty nineteen project and all that sort of stuff. Right, yeah,

0:34:54.600 --> 0:34:55.960
<v Speaker 5>I think I know what to do about this.

0:34:56.080 --> 0:34:59.920
<v Speaker 3>But how do we feel about quote unquote re educ

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:05.760
<v Speaker 3>cation camps. It's kind of got a negative connotation, doesn't it.

0:35:05.920 --> 0:35:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Perhaps patriotism academies? What do you think of that name?

0:35:11.840 --> 0:35:13.440
<v Speaker 2>We'd like you, ma'am.

0:35:13.560 --> 0:35:17.600
<v Speaker 3>I know you're teaching this class and throwing kids out

0:35:17.640 --> 0:35:20.200
<v Speaker 3>for having the Gansten flag, but we need you to

0:35:20.239 --> 0:35:23.720
<v Speaker 3>attend a patriotism academy for a few weeks.

0:35:23.920 --> 0:35:31.120
<v Speaker 2>Wow. Wow, the protests at that. That's very Chinese of you. Geez,

0:35:32.840 --> 0:35:34.000
<v Speaker 2>that was insensitive.

0:35:35.320 --> 0:35:37.040
<v Speaker 8>You know, when I went to school, the only problem

0:35:37.160 --> 0:35:39.759
<v Speaker 8>was the school cafeteria in that questionable meat.

0:35:39.960 --> 0:35:42.560
