0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:53.840
<v Speaker 1>not the Harrison is planning to unveil a new Bronco

0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 1>on July nine, which is exciting but also surprising because

0:00:58.280 --> 0:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>July nine, half the used to be O J's birthday

0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:05.560
<v Speaker 1>for real. For says they didn't realize this when they

0:01:05.600 --> 0:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>announced it. What I want to know is who did

0:01:07.800 --> 0:01:10.800
<v Speaker 1>realize this? Who looked at out or who's thought, wait

0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:12.960
<v Speaker 1>a minute, this isn't that O J's bird. How is

0:01:13.000 --> 0:01:16.280
<v Speaker 1>it possible? We don't know how to purel, but we

0:01:16.400 --> 0:01:22.240
<v Speaker 1>do know this. Um. The Ford Bronco looks cool, by

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:23.760
<v Speaker 1>the way, if you have if you haven't seen him,

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 1>looks awesome. My kids really want the the Ranger. It's

0:01:28.280 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>really cool too. That's the smaller pick up, right. Yeah,

0:01:31.600 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 1>Now the Broncos got a retro look though, like the

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:36.039
<v Speaker 1>old Broncos. If you like the old Broncos as opposed

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:38.440
<v Speaker 1>to the Chevy Blazer to come back, which looks horrible

0:01:38.480 --> 0:01:44.240
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion, that's okay, it's aggressive. Hey, and following

0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:47.600
<v Speaker 1>up on our our previous conversation, I have no great

0:01:47.720 --> 0:01:52.720
<v Speaker 1>enthusiasm for Columbus. He was a perfectly fine series. Is stupid, yes,

0:01:53.080 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>but we're talking about, you know, the conquistadors from Spain.

0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 1>The people are tearing tearing down those statues because of

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:04.640
<v Speaker 1>what they did to indigenous populations. But the Aztecs were famously,

0:02:04.760 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>incredibly brutal and wiped out the villages. How about your incas,

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 1>how your very civilizations that we were chucking perfectly good

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:15.920
<v Speaker 1>virgins in the volcanoes or or or infants or what

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:21.000
<v Speaker 1>have you. Horrific genocides by all those civilizations, and yet

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:24.960
<v Speaker 1>we flocked to their inflating each other and dominating them

0:02:24.960 --> 0:02:27.440
<v Speaker 1>and doing all kinds of cruel thing exactly. We flocked

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 1>to their buildings and statues and the rest of it. Oh,

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:35.000
<v Speaker 1>a fascinating culture, we say, right, come on, oh, let'son.

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:37.359
<v Speaker 1>Reminds me we got to where's that Tim Kane clip?

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:40.000
<v Speaker 1>We gotta play this again clip nineteen? We gotta play

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:42.799
<v Speaker 1>it twice every hour. This guy's a U. S freaking

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:49.720
<v Speaker 1>senator and was allegedly Hillary Clinton's VEEP candidate. Do you

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:51.320
<v Speaker 1>want the full version? Are just the thing that I

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.880
<v Speaker 1>used earlier? You know the short versions of fun? United

0:02:53.919 --> 0:03:01.200
<v Speaker 1>States didn't inherit slavery from anybody. We created it. Wow,

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:06.360
<v Speaker 1>that's so dangerous. He is an America hater. You know

0:03:06.360 --> 0:03:08.160
<v Speaker 1>what we're gonna talk about, evil Google. I want to

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:11.080
<v Speaker 1>hear the whole version. What else did he say? The

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>first African Americans and into the English colonies came to

0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 1>quite comfort Virginia sixty nineteen. They were slaves. They've been

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>captured against their will, but they landed in colonies that

0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:25.079
<v Speaker 1>didn't have slavery. There were no laws about slavery and

0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:29.079
<v Speaker 1>the colonies at that time. The United States didn't inherit

0:03:29.160 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 1>slavery from anybody. We created it. It got created by

0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the Virginia General Assembly and the legislatures of other states.

0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 1>It got created by the court systems in colonial America

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:44.240
<v Speaker 1>and sense that enforced fugitive slave laws. It was we

0:03:44.320 --> 0:03:48.920
<v Speaker 1>created it, and we created it and maintained it over centuries.

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>That is utterly ignorant and stupid, both of them, and

0:03:55.880 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>dangerous and and and even the by uh. If so

0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:04.840
<v Speaker 1>everybody said, okay, you're right, then what are we supposed

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:09.000
<v Speaker 1>to do? What is this point? Be guilty of crimes

0:04:09.280 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 1>by the mere fact of your birth and submit to

0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>your new overlords. It's as simple as that point of interest.

0:04:15.960 --> 0:04:17.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he is an America hater. I think

0:04:17.760 --> 0:04:20.880
<v Speaker 1>he's something worse than that. It's the people that say, hey,

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:22.840
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of America haters. I want to get

0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:24.919
<v Speaker 1>elected by them, so I'm going to pretend to be

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:29.160
<v Speaker 1>what they want and even to them worse in my opinion. Yeah,

0:04:29.200 --> 0:04:32.480
<v Speaker 1>at least the America hater haters sincerely hold their their

0:04:32.520 --> 0:04:35.720
<v Speaker 1>twisted views. Uh. You may find this interesting. A new

0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>studies suggests that a million or more European Christians were

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:42.560
<v Speaker 1>enslaved by Muslims in North Africa between fifteen thirty and

0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:46.000
<v Speaker 1>seventeen eighty, a far greater number that had than had

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.920
<v Speaker 1>been known before. In a new book, Robert Davis, professor

0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:52.640
<v Speaker 1>of history at Ohio State University, developed a unique methodology

0:04:52.680 --> 0:04:55.159
<v Speaker 1>to calculate the number of white Christians who are enslaved

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:58.839
<v Speaker 1>along Africa's Barbary coast, arriving in much higher slave populations.

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>Blah blah blah um. Most other accounts didn't try to

0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:03.480
<v Speaker 1>estimate the number of slaves, are only looked at the

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:06.920
<v Speaker 1>number of slaves in particular cities. Most estimated slave countsil

0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:11.799
<v Speaker 1>desths tended to be um smaller Davis. By contrast, he says,

0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:13.719
<v Speaker 1>much of what has been written gives the impression that

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:15.840
<v Speaker 1>there were not many slaves and minimizes the impact that

0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:18.640
<v Speaker 1>slavery had on Europe. Most accounts only look at slavery

0:05:18.640 --> 0:05:20.640
<v Speaker 1>in one place or over a short period of time,

0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:23.000
<v Speaker 1>But when you take a longer, broader view, the massive

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:26.200
<v Speaker 1>scope of this slavery and its powerful impact become clear.

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:30.480
<v Speaker 1>He said, it's useful to compare this Mediterranean slavery the

0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:34.679
<v Speaker 1>Atlantic slave trade that brought the black Africans to the Americans. Um.

0:05:34.760 --> 0:05:38.479
<v Speaker 1>And it just and I point this out only to

0:05:38.560 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>point out how incredibly idiotic Tim Kaine's statement is just indefensible, factually, morally, patriotically.

0:05:48.160 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Can we all agree to see him run out of

0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>town on a rail? Can't we just all agree we're

0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:58.760
<v Speaker 1>anti slavery. I'm I'm very much anti slavery. Too unbelievable.

0:05:59.560 --> 0:06:01.840
<v Speaker 1>Now we run out of time to do the thing.

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:03.839
<v Speaker 1>We'll do that next. I'm just hoping that getting rid

0:06:03.960 --> 0:06:06.720
<v Speaker 1>of Aunt Jemima on the syrup bottle is going to

0:06:06.760 --> 0:06:08.240
<v Speaker 1>get us where we need to be as a nation.

0:06:08.839 --> 0:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that will certainly help. Are they going to

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:18.479
<v Speaker 1>replace Aunt Jemima with Aunt Karen? Now that's funny. Oh jeez,

0:06:19.360 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 1>that is funny. I'm trying to find something that's not

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:26.800
<v Speaker 1>like controversial and makes people angry that that that we

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:29.000
<v Speaker 1>have saved up for the show today, and it's just

0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:33.159
<v Speaker 1>there's there's just bitterness in here. Here, here's a here's

0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:38.839
<v Speaker 1>a question I got and it's the actually texted everybody

0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:42.440
<v Speaker 1>before the show started that I find it increasingly hard

0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 1>to find stories that aren't about Trump as everything is

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:48.440
<v Speaker 1>being made about Trump as as usual, But it seems

0:06:48.480 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 1>like there's enough tick in the virus is about Trump.

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 1>He's gonna have a rally? What about this? But about that? All?

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, all the different Trump controversies of the day,

0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:58.359
<v Speaker 1>but this one on a book coming out. I'm just

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:01.719
<v Speaker 1>trying to figure out is he doing the whole three

0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:04.920
<v Speaker 1>dimensional chess thing or is he just making a mistake

0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:11.920
<v Speaker 1>the Bolton thing. So he is by fighting this book,

0:07:12.000 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 1>coming out and tweeting about it and talking about it

0:07:14.120 --> 0:07:17.840
<v Speaker 1>in speeches and everything like that is clearly selling millions

0:07:17.880 --> 0:07:20.320
<v Speaker 1>more copies of the book, the Barbara Streisand effect and

0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:23.200
<v Speaker 1>an alerting way more people the fact that the book existed,

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:28.239
<v Speaker 1>uh than would have otherwise known the Barbera Streisan effect. Yeah,

0:07:28.600 --> 0:07:32.280
<v Speaker 1>there was. I believe it was about a paparazzi photo

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.880
<v Speaker 1>of her house or something like that. She fought it

0:07:34.920 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 1>in court, which only brought more attention to the fact

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.880
<v Speaker 1>that she lived in this place palace. That's called the

0:07:40.920 --> 0:07:44.720
<v Speaker 1>Barbara Streisand effect, I believe. So, yeah, that's interesting. Why

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>do you know these things? I don't know, fascinating human being,

0:07:47.760 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 1>my social Security number, birthdays of loved ones. I have

0:07:51.400 --> 0:07:54.440
<v Speaker 1>no idea, but uh yeah, So I'm just trying to

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>figure out if this is one of those. Uh he

0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 1>feels a lot like him battling Bolton, and he would

0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:06.000
<v Speaker 1>be right about this, not gonna move the needle at all.

0:08:06.400 --> 0:08:09.120
<v Speaker 1>ABC this week, leading with that story today, Bolton says

0:08:09.200 --> 0:08:11.440
<v Speaker 1>nasty things about Trump Yeah, so a bunch of other

0:08:11.480 --> 0:08:13.840
<v Speaker 1>people not gonna you know, and and people that are

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:18.080
<v Speaker 1>Trump supporters will will double down on that whole thing.

0:08:18.280 --> 0:08:20.840
<v Speaker 1>So is he just feeling like this being the lead

0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:24.640
<v Speaker 1>story on Good Morning America is better than the race

0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 1>stuff maybe, or or he always wants the media to

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:35.320
<v Speaker 1>be talking about him and this seems like a good opportunity. Yeah.

0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:42.920
<v Speaker 1>I often think it's overstated, h that there's some three

0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:44.840
<v Speaker 1>dimensional chess going on. But I think in this case,

0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:47.600
<v Speaker 1>he might actually be trying to pump up the book

0:08:47.600 --> 0:08:50.079
<v Speaker 1>as a story because it's a It's not going to

0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 1>have any effect on voters. It just isn't right right.

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.439
<v Speaker 1>Oh um, So Google is evil? Also, you know what

0:08:57.480 --> 0:08:59.839
<v Speaker 1>we need to get to is the the administrations for

0:09:00.000 --> 0:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>it was all for police reform. Comparing contrast with congress

0:09:03.559 --> 0:09:07.000
<v Speaker 1>is proposal for police reform. There's plenty of overlapping ground.

0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:09.599
<v Speaker 1>But I think a secret strategy is at work and

0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:13.000
<v Speaker 1>you will watch it play out. I have sniffed it out.

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.880
<v Speaker 1>So you're gonna talk about Google being evil, Yes, a

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:18.480
<v Speaker 1>big tech is evil. Yeah. I was watching MSNBC this

0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:20.439
<v Speaker 1>morning and they were screaming and yelling about how evil

0:09:20.480 --> 0:09:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Facebook is they're not Facebook is evil because they're not

0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:28.720
<v Speaker 1>evil enough my opinion, because it's all about spreading right

0:09:28.760 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 1>wing and the evil that's what they think Facebook is doing,

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:35.640
<v Speaker 1>even though Zuckerberg's are lefty. Right. Yeah, that's all very complicated,

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:41.599
<v Speaker 1>that whole thing. Yeah, yeah, well let's talk about it next.

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:03.040
<v Speaker 1>So old is this kid drumming mic? Four? Four year old?

0:10:03.160 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Four year old drummers? All right? You know this about me?

0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Ten more seconds of this? I think I get the

0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:18.960
<v Speaker 1>he's tour but he's really good drum. Then he lays

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 1>it down heavy. I can't stand child prodigies. I have

0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:25.400
<v Speaker 1>no use for it. Listen to this eight year old

0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:28.080
<v Speaker 1>girls sing the anthem. There are a lot of adults

0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:32.760
<v Speaker 1>who sing that good. All right, diamond doesn't. And that kid,

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 1>when they become adults won't be some sort of transcendent

0:10:37.160 --> 0:10:39.839
<v Speaker 1>twice as good as adults. She'll just stay in the same.

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 1>So what's the point. The only thing you've brought me

0:10:44.880 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>is someone who peaked too early. They peaked very early,

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>you know what. You know, it's funny and I've always

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:54.360
<v Speaker 1>thought that, and I'm not sure exactly why. Uh it

0:10:54.440 --> 0:10:58.839
<v Speaker 1>might be because when I was like twelve to fourteen

0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 1>years old. I was a big, strong, twelve to fourteen

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.320
<v Speaker 1>year old kid, and I dominated in sports, and then

0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>I stopped growing. I stopped growing at like age fourteen,

0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:12.679
<v Speaker 1>I was five eleven, you know, rippling with muscle hundred sixtys.

0:11:12.920 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>I was the size of my fourth grader when I

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:19.600
<v Speaker 1>was fourteen, Yeah, yeah, And and then you know, I

0:11:19.640 --> 0:11:22.959
<v Speaker 1>went from dominant, too very good, too competitive, to what

0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:25.680
<v Speaker 1>the hell happened by the time I was like eighteen

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.560
<v Speaker 1>nineteen years old. And so the whole look at them.

0:11:28.640 --> 0:11:32.280
<v Speaker 1>They're good early and we'll probably not improve at all.

0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Who cares? Stupid kid drummer, Bring me no more child drummers, Michael,

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:52.800
<v Speaker 1>stupid kid drummer. So here's the deal, And I'm trying

0:11:52.840 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 1>to decide how to intermix the tapes. Um, why don't

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 1>we start of forty one from the Tucker Carlson Show.

0:12:02.320 --> 0:12:04.439
<v Speaker 1>I think it does a pretty good job of setting

0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.440
<v Speaker 1>up some of what happened. Go ahead, Sean. Most media

0:12:07.480 --> 0:12:12.920
<v Speaker 1>companies are dependent on Google. Google control of all online advertising.

0:12:13.400 --> 0:12:16.720
<v Speaker 1>So if you're in the news business, you obey Google. Well,

0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Google tells you to do something, you do it. You

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:22.240
<v Speaker 1>have no choice. They can bankrupt you. In a minute,

0:12:22.559 --> 0:12:25.920
<v Speaker 1>and they will. In all of human history, no single

0:12:26.040 --> 0:12:29.840
<v Speaker 1>entity is that ever had more control over information than

0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:32.959
<v Speaker 1>Google does right now. So if you're worried about the

0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 1>concentration of power in the hands of a few unaccountable actors,

0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:40.079
<v Speaker 1>and you very much should be. Nobody has more unchecked

0:12:40.080 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 1>power than Google does. The reason Tucker was talking about that,

0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 1>the reason we are is that some activists at NBC

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:57.200
<v Speaker 1>News started hammering Google that about various conservative website slash publications,

0:12:58.640 --> 0:13:03.240
<v Speaker 1>saying that they should be demonetized. Google should route no

0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:07.400
<v Speaker 1>ads to them, and maybe it'd be worth taking just

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.040
<v Speaker 1>a quick second. It's a little bit like syndicated radio

0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:14.560
<v Speaker 1>shows in a way. There are gigantic ads sellers, and

0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:18.840
<v Speaker 1>they promised to the gigantic advertisers, we will deliver you

0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:22.760
<v Speaker 1>two hundred thousand sets of eyes or ears or both

0:13:23.480 --> 0:13:26.719
<v Speaker 1>um and then they place those ads here, there, and everywhere,

0:13:27.240 --> 0:13:33.040
<v Speaker 1>And a lot of your websites depend on Google placing

0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:35.960
<v Speaker 1>ads in front of those eyes and ears. And so

0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:42.319
<v Speaker 1>some activists at NBC News started hammering Google tattling on

0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:48.880
<v Speaker 1>conservative websites for the offense of having comments sections that

0:13:49.040 --> 0:13:54.400
<v Speaker 1>they did not curate. Google then said, well, we can't

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:58.200
<v Speaker 1>have our ads running on these conservative websites that that

0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:02.440
<v Speaker 1>have bad things being said on them. A couple of problems.

0:14:02.520 --> 0:14:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Number one, the progressive activists decide what's a bad thing

0:14:06.800 --> 0:14:09.160
<v Speaker 1>and what's not and then petition Google to get it

0:14:09.240 --> 0:14:13.880
<v Speaker 1>taken down. And the other rich just astounding irony. As

0:14:13.920 --> 0:14:17.080
<v Speaker 1>Senator Josh Holly tweeted, and in front of me, somewhere

0:14:17.120 --> 0:14:21.640
<v Speaker 1>there it is, um, wait, wait, you want to treat

0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:25.960
<v Speaker 1>the federalist comic comments section, which they don't curate, is

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:30.760
<v Speaker 1>their speech, but simultaneously say the content you directly host

0:14:30.840 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>and modify is not your speech under section to thirty

0:14:35.000 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>the commerce clause. Wow, this is getting really interesting. So

0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:41.600
<v Speaker 1>Google and Facebook and Twitter, their entire argument is, we're

0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.680
<v Speaker 1>not a publisher, We're just a we're a public square,

0:14:44.680 --> 0:14:49.120
<v Speaker 1>We're a clearing house people post to us. But they're

0:14:49.160 --> 0:14:51.960
<v Speaker 1>defunding websites that do the same if they don't like

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:57.200
<v Speaker 1>their ideology. Now the backlash against NBC News has begun.

0:14:57.400 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I know Zero Hedge was caught up in this too.

0:15:00.200 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a sense of how hard it would

0:15:02.240 --> 0:15:05.240
<v Speaker 1>be to monitor your comments section, but I'll bet it

0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:07.720
<v Speaker 1>be a lot of work. We have somebody on it

0:15:07.800 --> 0:15:09.800
<v Speaker 1>all the time. Yeah, the good folks at the Federalists

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:11.360
<v Speaker 1>just said, all right, we'll take it down for now

0:15:11.440 --> 0:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>until all this gets decided. And Google said, okay, you

0:15:14.560 --> 0:15:16.520
<v Speaker 1>can have your money back. But Sean Davis, who was

0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:18.640
<v Speaker 1>one of the co founders of The Federalist, which is

0:15:19.040 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>an absolutely fabulous, rock solid, smart conservative journalists. It's a

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>smart academic thing. It's not a flame throwing moomb chucking

0:15:29.520 --> 0:15:32.320
<v Speaker 1>in sort of place. No, no, let's hear a clip

0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:33.920
<v Speaker 1>forty five. This is Sean Davis who is a co

0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>founder of The Federalist. In fact, it looks like NBC,

0:15:38.680 --> 0:15:41.760
<v Speaker 1>the network that coddled Harvey Weinstein and Matt Lauer by

0:15:41.800 --> 0:15:44.640
<v Speaker 1>the way, and partnered with a foreign left wing group

0:15:44.640 --> 0:15:47.800
<v Speaker 1>in Europe to go after US and to use Google

0:15:47.880 --> 0:15:50.040
<v Speaker 1>to go after us. And as of now, since we

0:15:50.120 --> 0:15:53.440
<v Speaker 1>have temporarily removed our comments sections, I can assure you

0:15:53.440 --> 0:15:56.280
<v Speaker 1>they will be back. We are back in Google's good graces.

0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:59.440
<v Speaker 1>But this is a pretty terrifying example of the power

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 1>that you had have between the unholy union of corrupt

0:16:02.600 --> 0:16:07.600
<v Speaker 1>media and monopolistic tech oligarts. And then go ahead is

0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.480
<v Speaker 1>next left, And here we have a a foreign unit

0:16:11.840 --> 0:16:15.160
<v Speaker 1>at NBC that with the Orwellian name, the NBC News

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Verification Unit. Uh. The irony, there's enough to make you laugh.

0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:23.560
<v Speaker 1>Seeking with another left wing foreign group to d platform

0:16:23.760 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 1>an American media organization, one that's supposed to be defended,

0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:29.960
<v Speaker 1>uh and made sacred saying to under the First Amendment,

0:16:29.960 --> 0:16:32.480
<v Speaker 1>and trying to get us d platform by going to

0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:35.080
<v Speaker 1>their left wing friends at Google. So I think there

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:36.880
<v Speaker 1>are a lot of questions that need to be answered,

0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:40.440
<v Speaker 1>especially by those involved at CNN who put forward a

0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 1>completely false and maliciously so article attacking us, slurring us

0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and slamming us and defaming us with things that had

0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:51.520
<v Speaker 1>no basis in reality whatsoever. And if this were a

0:16:51.560 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>just world, there would be accountability for that. There would

0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:57.480
<v Speaker 1>be accountability for fake journalists who go around trying to

0:16:57.520 --> 0:17:02.880
<v Speaker 1>destroy their competition for the crime of criticized. So this woman,

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:07.040
<v Speaker 1>adel Mimoco Frasier, who's part of the foreign branch of

0:17:07.440 --> 0:17:12.240
<v Speaker 1>MSN or NBC, was tweeting thanks to blankety blank for

0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:16.720
<v Speaker 1>their hard work and collaboration. Too far right sites zero

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Hedge and The Federalist will no longer be able to

0:17:19.480 --> 0:17:24.920
<v Speaker 1>generate revenue from any advertisements served by Google ads um.

0:17:25.040 --> 0:17:28.040
<v Speaker 1>She quickly deleted the tweet. We shared it. Well, that's

0:17:28.080 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of confusing, but um, one of the most troubling

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:36.320
<v Speaker 1>aspects of this is that the Federalist is unquestionably right.

0:17:36.400 --> 0:17:38.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's a conservative website, but as we said,

0:17:38.359 --> 0:17:41.760
<v Speaker 1>it's very, very smart and considered. UM and zero Hedge

0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:47.119
<v Speaker 1>is a kind of contrarian, non party affiliated, calling the

0:17:47.160 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 1>bs on both sides. They savage the Republicans regularly, but

0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:55.840
<v Speaker 1>this activist gal managed to label them as far right

0:17:55.960 --> 0:17:59.240
<v Speaker 1>and dangerous and brimming with hate speech and got him banned.

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:01.080
<v Speaker 1>I gotta believe the people are going to be held

0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:04.040
<v Speaker 1>accountable for their comments section. There will be no more

0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:06.919
<v Speaker 1>comments sections at all, which is not the worst thing

0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I've ever heard. No, no, no, definitely. These media companies

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:13.560
<v Speaker 1>are so powerful and man behind the scenes, you wouldn't

0:18:13.600 --> 0:18:39.320
<v Speaker 1>like what you see. Well, that's due to the pandemic.

0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:42.760
<v Speaker 1>Walmart is testing a store that only offers self check out,

0:18:43.320 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 1>and if it's successful, it could be expanded to more stores.

0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:49.800
<v Speaker 1>It's to limit human interaction and to increase interaction with

0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:55.000
<v Speaker 1>buttons that thousands of people touch. It's pretty good you're

0:18:55.040 --> 0:19:00.960
<v Speaker 1>breathing wrong, particularly if you're a mouth breather what which

0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:06.200

0:19:07.680 --> 0:19:11.399
<v Speaker 1>I have a deviated septum. It's not my fault. Well, see,

0:19:11.680 --> 0:19:13.600

<v Speaker 1>there at their mouths hanging open and are dumb. It's

0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:32.119
<v Speaker 1>there's a connection, and I don't know. I observed it

0:20:32.119 --> 0:20:34.840
<v Speaker 1>as a child. I would look around the classroom and

0:20:34.920 --> 0:20:37.800
<v Speaker 1>notice the morons were breathing through their mouth with their

0:20:37.840 --> 0:20:44.200
<v Speaker 1>mouth Just harsh rhetoric here we're talking about children in retrospect,

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:47.359
<v Speaker 1>but they were I had been around them, so I

0:20:47.480 --> 0:20:50.240
<v Speaker 1>knew they were morons and they were breathing out their mouths.

0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:54.000
<v Speaker 1>So I have no facts, and you know, just general.

0:20:54.080 --> 0:20:55.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's something, there's some connection. I don't know

0:20:55.760 --> 0:20:58.520
<v Speaker 1>what it is. When the human genome is finally and

0:20:58.640 --> 0:21:02.639
<v Speaker 1>completely unraveled, we will understand this. The slack jawn yokel

0:21:02.760 --> 0:21:04.879
<v Speaker 1>is that where that term comes from. It could be.

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 1>But there's also like my my son, just like my brother,

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:14.040
<v Speaker 1>My brother is gonna turn fifty, he turns forty nine,

0:21:14.040 --> 0:21:15.880
<v Speaker 1>and here in a couple of days, Um, he's never

0:21:15.920 --> 0:21:18.960
<v Speaker 1>breathed through his nose in his life, Great Scott, he says,

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:24.120
<v Speaker 1>and he just can't and he's had shots and pills

0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:26.919
<v Speaker 1>and clinics and driven many miles and traveled around and

0:21:27.000 --> 0:21:29.280
<v Speaker 1>just nothing. And my son is the same way. My

0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:31.439
<v Speaker 1>son has never breathed through his nose yet he's ten

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:34.879
<v Speaker 1>years old. Um, and he's tried all kinds of shots

0:21:34.880 --> 0:21:36.879
<v Speaker 1>and pills and clinics, and we've traveled all around and

0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:39.560
<v Speaker 1>just nothing. That isn't so. Sometimes you have to breathe

0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:42.080
<v Speaker 1>through your mouth. But anyway, you're breathing wrong if you're

0:21:42.080 --> 0:21:44.480
<v Speaker 1>breathing through your mouth. According to doctors who say breathing

0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:46.920
<v Speaker 1>how you breathe makes a big difference in whether or

0:21:46.960 --> 0:21:50.480
<v Speaker 1>not he catch this COVID. Oh wait a minute, now,

0:21:50.560 --> 0:21:53.440
<v Speaker 1>you got my attention. Our attention to it is long overdue.

0:21:54.440 --> 0:21:57.840
<v Speaker 1>Breathing wrong. I breathe into my right lung, then my

0:21:57.960 --> 0:22:01.760
<v Speaker 1>left lung. I alternate. Then the mind's kind of syncopated

0:22:01.880 --> 0:22:05.800
<v Speaker 1>a discipline. Breathe, breathe, breathe, breath I'd kind of do

0:22:05.840 --> 0:22:11.880
<v Speaker 1>it like that. Wow, syncopated breathing. Nose breathing is better

0:22:11.880 --> 0:22:15.359
<v Speaker 1>than mouth breathing because it's protective. The nose filters, heats

0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:19.600
<v Speaker 1>and treats raw air. Inhaling through the nose stimulates the

0:22:19.640 --> 0:22:22.720
<v Speaker 1>release of hormones and nitric oxide, of course, which helps

0:22:22.720 --> 0:22:25.760
<v Speaker 1>to regulate vital functions like blood pressure and increase oxygenation.

0:22:25.760 --> 0:22:27.760
<v Speaker 1>It's just better all the way around. Wait a minute,

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Breathing through your nose can lower your blood pressure. Maybe

0:22:32.160 --> 0:22:35.240
<v Speaker 1>that's your blood pressure situation. Breathe through your mouth. Mouth.

0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I am. Most of us take twenty five breaths a day,

0:22:42.160 --> 0:22:45.359
<v Speaker 1>so breathing properly is critical to our body's function. If

0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:48.879
<v Speaker 1>you eliminated all those opportunities to stimulate all those things

0:22:49.160 --> 0:22:51.040
<v Speaker 1>by breathing through your mouth, obviously, that would make a

0:22:51.080 --> 0:22:54.520
<v Speaker 1>difference with your health. I found that pretty interesting. Yeah,

0:22:55.760 --> 0:23:02.560
<v Speaker 1>that breathing dumber to breathing done properly keeps the body

0:23:02.600 --> 0:23:07.200
<v Speaker 1>in acid base balance by breathing through that too. All

0:23:07.280 --> 0:23:09.600
<v Speaker 1>kinds of different health of benefits for breathing. You know

0:23:09.760 --> 0:23:12.240
<v Speaker 1>something I thought, I found that kind of interesting. Your

0:23:12.320 --> 0:23:17.399
<v Speaker 1>mouth breathers. Well, I was listening to music. I was

0:23:17.440 --> 0:23:24.479
<v Speaker 1>watching There's No Dummy. So that's enough of that mentioned

0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:28.560
<v Speaker 1>yesterday the dust up between China and India, Oh man,

0:23:28.760 --> 0:23:32.760
<v Speaker 1>dust up horrific? Or was it? And this is only

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:36.440
<v Speaker 1>my own personal feelings, but we'll start here. So at

0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:40.399
<v Speaker 1>least twenty Indian soldiers killed by the Chinese there at

0:23:40.440 --> 0:23:43.520
<v Speaker 1>the border where they regularly get into a little battles

0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:45.560
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that. Although it's been a long time

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:48.720
<v Speaker 1>since there's been death, not been death since the seventies

0:23:49.640 --> 0:23:52.840
<v Speaker 1>and UH, to me, this is a sign that things

0:23:52.960 --> 0:23:57.920
<v Speaker 1>are even more tense than they might otherwise be. So

0:23:58.000 --> 0:24:01.320
<v Speaker 1>you had twenty Indian soldiers beat to death, and the

0:24:01.400 --> 0:24:04.600
<v Speaker 1>stories that came out yesterday from India is that the

0:24:04.680 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 1>Chinese soldiers beat the Indian soldiers to death with bats

0:24:09.400 --> 0:24:12.600
<v Speaker 1>that had nails pounded into them. Really well, that's what

0:24:12.680 --> 0:24:15.080
<v Speaker 1>the reporting out of India was. The first thing I

0:24:15.160 --> 0:24:19.760
<v Speaker 1>thought of was UH, babies being tossed in the air

0:24:19.800 --> 0:24:23.959
<v Speaker 1>and caught on bayonets. That's a story that goes back centuries.

0:24:24.560 --> 0:24:28.439
<v Speaker 1>There's no indication that's ever happened. But whenever there's a

0:24:29.000 --> 0:24:33.639
<v Speaker 1>there's tensions flaring between two nations for some reason, we

0:24:33.760 --> 0:24:38.800
<v Speaker 1>have to invent stories about what monsters our opponent, our

0:24:38.840 --> 0:24:42.000
<v Speaker 1>opponents are, to try to whip up our our own

0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:44.080
<v Speaker 1>our own personal hatred of them in our belief we've

0:24:44.119 --> 0:24:45.600
<v Speaker 1>got to fight these people, We've got to fight to

0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:48.399
<v Speaker 1>the death because these are monsters and the stories about

0:24:48.440 --> 0:24:50.600
<v Speaker 1>throwing babies in the air and catching them on bayonet

0:24:51.119 --> 0:24:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that was said about the Japanese and World War two

0:24:53.560 --> 0:24:56.040
<v Speaker 1>said about the Germans is going and it goes back

0:24:56.119 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 1>centuries these stories. When the Go four happened, when Saddam

0:25:00.680 --> 0:25:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Hussein went into Kuwait, there were stories in the United States.

0:25:03.720 --> 0:25:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I heard them and believe them that Iraqi soldiers were

0:25:06.640 --> 0:25:11.760
<v Speaker 1>going into hospitals in Kuwait an unplugging baby incubators to

0:25:11.760 --> 0:25:13.760
<v Speaker 1>to allow them to die. So that was just a

0:25:13.840 --> 0:25:17.879
<v Speaker 1>high tech modern version of the same thing. And I

0:25:18.040 --> 0:25:20.880
<v Speaker 1>just find it hard to believe that Chinese soldiers, if

0:25:20.880 --> 0:25:22.840
<v Speaker 1>they wanted to get into a battle and wanted to

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:26.679
<v Speaker 1>kill Indian soldiers, took the time to nail put nails

0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:29.200
<v Speaker 1>into bat It just doesn't seem like the most efficient

0:25:29.280 --> 0:25:33.880
<v Speaker 1>way to dispatch of someone. A couple of things, India's

0:25:33.920 --> 0:25:38.119
<v Speaker 1>tabloid media says, the most horrendous stuff you can believe.

0:25:38.440 --> 0:25:44.200
<v Speaker 1>It makes our efforts at at ridiculous news. Same time. Uh. Secondly,

0:25:44.640 --> 0:25:47.359
<v Speaker 1>the both countries have agreed to disarm the folks in

0:25:47.400 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 1>that region, so there's no shooting wars um, so they

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:55.120
<v Speaker 1>don't carry guns. The both governments are making loud noises

0:25:55.160 --> 0:25:57.880
<v Speaker 1>about how hey, hell, let's talk, Let's not escalate, Let's

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:00.360
<v Speaker 1>be cool here. Are you cool? We're cool? Are you cool?

0:26:00.960 --> 0:26:03.720
<v Speaker 1>India's talking a lot more than the Chinese. The Chinese

0:26:03.880 --> 0:26:06.920
<v Speaker 1>usuer was saying, we got nothing to say, but um,

0:26:07.000 --> 0:26:10.840
<v Speaker 1>the Indian government is now saying the guys were injured

0:26:10.880 --> 0:26:14.199
<v Speaker 1>in the fight and then died of exposure because the

0:26:14.240 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 1>temperatures are sub zero when night fell. So they're trying

0:26:18.760 --> 0:26:22.840
<v Speaker 1>to really at the government level. Well, all this skepticism

0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:24.919
<v Speaker 1>about the nails and the bats, I'm bringing you. It

0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:26.760
<v Speaker 1>was not a New York Times story I read. It

0:26:26.800 --> 0:26:28.440
<v Speaker 1>was just stated that that was the New York Times

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:32.439
<v Speaker 1>saying that. Well, it just said, uh, reports from India

0:26:32.520 --> 0:26:34.960
<v Speaker 1>say the Chinese soldiers had bats with nails in them

0:26:34.960 --> 0:26:37.520
<v Speaker 1>and beat the soldiers to death. It's not impossible. It's

0:26:37.560 --> 0:26:41.320
<v Speaker 1>not impossible. It's just they're they're a couple of gangs

0:26:42.040 --> 0:26:45.520
<v Speaker 1>that have been forbidden from carrying guns up there in

0:26:45.600 --> 0:26:47.879
<v Speaker 1>the hinter lands where it's freezing freaking cold and there

0:26:47.880 --> 0:26:52.640
<v Speaker 1>are almost no humans, and occasionally they they throw fists.

0:26:52.720 --> 0:26:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Well in a weird sort of way. It would be

0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:58.480
<v Speaker 1>better that it were true than if there's some feeling

0:26:58.520 --> 0:27:00.760
<v Speaker 1>in India that they need to build up the Chinese

0:27:00.760 --> 0:27:03.359
<v Speaker 1>and the monsters so that they can have the will

0:27:03.440 --> 0:27:06.119
<v Speaker 1>to go to war, because that's that's what happens. I think.

0:27:06.160 --> 0:27:08.960
<v Speaker 1>I find out who was advising the Chinese with the

0:27:09.200 --> 0:27:11.280
<v Speaker 1>nails and their bats on their tactics, and that's that

0:27:11.400 --> 0:27:13.800
<v Speaker 1>those days used to remember the straight race. Bang them

0:27:13.840 --> 0:27:17.880
<v Speaker 1>on the curve, rusty, put them in a rain barrel. Right,

0:27:17.920 --> 0:27:20.720
<v Speaker 1>and everybody knows Joe Biden is soft on China. It's

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:23.560
<v Speaker 1>all coming together, Sean well teased out. But just to

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:26.160
<v Speaker 1>remind you why this is an important story, I looked

0:27:26.200 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 1>up the stats on this. I more or less had

0:27:28.240 --> 0:27:30.280
<v Speaker 1>it correct in my head, but I looked it up anyway.

0:27:30.320 --> 0:27:33.520
<v Speaker 1>The most powerful militaries in the world number one, of course,

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 1>who's got two thumbs an American flag and the best

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 1>military in the world. Uh, the United States of and

0:27:40.040 --> 0:27:42.560
<v Speaker 1>has been a long time number two, and they're there

0:27:42.560 --> 0:27:45.120
<v Speaker 1>are different lists with slightly different orders, but every list

0:27:45.119 --> 0:27:47.760
<v Speaker 1>I saw had Russia number two, I guess because of

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:52.440
<v Speaker 1>their nuclear arsenal. But so it's United States Russia than

0:27:52.600 --> 0:27:56.360
<v Speaker 1>three and four China and India. The fourth most powerful

0:27:56.359 --> 0:28:01.679
<v Speaker 1>militaries in the world squaring off in bat fights. Yeah, jus,

0:28:01.760 --> 0:28:04.479
<v Speaker 1>So hopefully that doesn't get to be a bigger day.

0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:08.040
<v Speaker 1>China big supporter of Pakistan too, and the Indians and

0:28:08.080 --> 0:28:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Pakistani's are always at each other's throat. And I came

0:28:10.720 --> 0:28:12.960
<v Speaker 1>across this term that I had never heard before, and

0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I need to get hit too, QUAD, which is a

0:28:16.040 --> 0:28:18.720
<v Speaker 1>new thing that is being promoted worldwide and China is

0:28:18.800 --> 0:28:22.679
<v Speaker 1>really concerned about it. QUAD is a group that includes

0:28:22.720 --> 0:28:25.400
<v Speaker 1>the United States, India, Japan, and Australia that has come

0:28:25.440 --> 0:28:28.400
<v Speaker 1>together to try to counter China. And we're now all

0:28:28.400 --> 0:28:32.200
<v Speaker 1>working together. And he did have it in the US

0:28:32.359 --> 0:28:36.320
<v Speaker 1>and Australia. Australia nice little Pacific image. Yeah, that's the

0:28:36.359 --> 0:28:39.160
<v Speaker 1>counterbalance to China, and China is really worried about all

0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:42.840
<v Speaker 1>these countries now working together. Military is yeah good, I agree,

0:28:42.960 --> 0:28:45.880
<v Speaker 1>But the military's exercise, you know, sharing intelligence blah blah blah.

0:28:45.880 --> 0:28:47.800
<v Speaker 1>So they see this whole India thing as part of

0:28:48.200 --> 0:28:52.920
<v Speaker 1>the QUAD. As I have followed my brother's travels around

0:28:52.960 --> 0:28:56.920
<v Speaker 1>the Earth, is in the United States Navy. Um, yeah,

0:28:57.040 --> 0:29:00.440
<v Speaker 1>we work a lot with those countries very very closely,

0:29:00.600 --> 0:29:03.160
<v Speaker 1>and um, I think it's really good strategy to do

0:29:03.240 --> 0:29:06.200
<v Speaker 1>so as China gets more and more aggressive and assertive

0:29:06.520 --> 0:29:09.320
<v Speaker 1>in that part of the world, and as usual, the

0:29:09.440 --> 0:29:11.720
<v Speaker 1>Chinese are thinking a hundred two hundred years down the road,

0:29:11.760 --> 0:29:17.360
<v Speaker 1>and we better be too, evil bastards. Millions of slaves

0:29:17.360 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 1>in China right now, folks, do you know this? They

0:29:19.640 --> 0:29:23.960
<v Speaker 1>have concentration calves. Do you have no human rights? It

0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:29.240
<v Speaker 1>is an evil, evil regime China, that's how in short. Yeah,

0:29:29.320 --> 0:29:32.720
<v Speaker 1>and just because they crank out cheap pharmaceuticals and underpants

0:29:32.720 --> 0:29:34.800
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean you ought to turn a blind eye to

0:29:34.840 --> 0:29:39.560
<v Speaker 1>their evil pants. Now, come on, China, how often do

0:29:39.600 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 1>you think you breathe through your nose per day? What?

0:29:42.600 --> 0:29:45.440
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I'm just wondering. Compared it to my son,

0:29:45.560 --> 0:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>I mostly breathe through my mouth because like right now,

0:29:49.320 --> 0:29:54.280
<v Speaker 1>right now I'm getting like probably of what should be

0:29:54.280 --> 0:29:58.280
<v Speaker 1>happening in my left nostril and that's probably about sixty

0:29:59.560 --> 0:30:04.200
<v Speaker 1>my right and nostril. You've a very careful gauge for nostril.

0:30:05.960 --> 0:30:11.720
<v Speaker 1>H Well, it's partly that uh ear nose and throat

0:30:11.760 --> 0:30:14.120
<v Speaker 1>guy told me you have a thirty pent of the

0:30:14.120 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>space you're supposed to have in this one in like

0:30:15.720 --> 0:30:17.959
<v Speaker 1>seventy and that one and then as the allergies come

0:30:18.000 --> 0:30:19.920
<v Speaker 1>and go, and I got my nose broken, but they

0:30:19.920 --> 0:30:21.959
<v Speaker 1>say that probably didn't affect it. Now, my son's never

0:30:22.040 --> 0:30:23.840
<v Speaker 1>had his nose broken, and he can't he can't breathe

0:30:23.840 --> 0:30:25.840
<v Speaker 1>through his nose. We went to an ear nose and

0:30:25.880 --> 0:30:28.400
<v Speaker 1>throat person when he was a baby. My my wife

0:30:28.440 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 1>is still mad about this, and it turns out we're

0:30:30.880 --> 0:30:33.440
<v Speaker 1>right because he's tanning. He still can't breathe through his nose.

0:30:33.680 --> 0:30:37.640
<v Speaker 1>But the doctor said he's just too fat to breathe

0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:40.200
<v Speaker 1>through his nose. That's what the nose and throat said,

0:30:40.360 --> 0:30:43.760
<v Speaker 1>fat nostrils. So because he couldn't sleep, and your baby

0:30:43.800 --> 0:30:45.560
<v Speaker 1>can't sleep, is always waking up, and we thought he

0:30:45.840 --> 0:30:47.920
<v Speaker 1>wakes up because as soon as he closes his mouth,

0:30:47.960 --> 0:30:49.640
<v Speaker 1>he wakes up because he can't breathe through his nose.

0:30:49.840 --> 0:30:52.040
<v Speaker 1>He's got like the the what do you call it?

0:30:52.200 --> 0:30:55.680
<v Speaker 1>With the sleep? Yeah, but anyway, we get the you know,

0:30:55.720 --> 0:30:57.480
<v Speaker 1>you get the specialist in the appointment and you wait

0:30:57.480 --> 0:30:58.920
<v Speaker 1>and wait and go, and all he says is your

0:30:58.920 --> 0:31:02.000
<v Speaker 1>baby's too fat. So anyway, I fought him when we're

0:31:02.080 --> 0:31:06.320
<v Speaker 1>rolling around their glove everywhere. Immediately shoot for the double rights.

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:10.800
<v Speaker 1>Seems reasonable. They don't expect you to come low, absolutely right, Yeah,

0:31:11.000 --> 0:31:13.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm bouncing his head off. Luckily there's a lot of

0:31:13.920 --> 0:31:18.160
<v Speaker 1>gauze around so well right, well the quote a great

0:31:18.240 --> 0:31:21.080
<v Speaker 1>lile love it, fat baby has got no pride? Who

0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:24.200
<v Speaker 1>needs pride? Um as the NBA season coming back if

0:31:24.240 --> 0:31:27.560
<v Speaker 1>it does. They got a lot of rules. Yeah, I'm

0:31:27.600 --> 0:31:29.800
<v Speaker 1>beginning to wonder. It seemed like they were, but the

0:31:29.840 --> 0:31:32.520
<v Speaker 1>players are are not happy. We might not have any

0:31:32.560 --> 0:31:38.360
<v Speaker 1>sports this year. Got golf, a great game of golf. Okay,

0:31:38.400 --> 0:31:40.600
<v Speaker 1>other sports, team sports, we might not have any of

0:31:40.640 --> 0:31:43.880
<v Speaker 1>this year. Anyway, stay tuned our text line nine five

0:31:43.960 --> 0:32:12.680
<v Speaker 1>k f TC the Armstrong and Jetty shows Ajean and

0:32:12.720 --> 0:32:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I spoke with Avery Bradley with the Lakers, who's one

0:32:15.240 --> 0:32:17.480
<v Speaker 1>of the leaders of this coalition. If it's for the

0:32:17.480 --> 0:32:21.320
<v Speaker 1>first time, it became really clear what concrete, tangible actions

0:32:21.320 --> 0:32:24.520
<v Speaker 1>they're looking for, and it's three things gone one. They

0:32:24.560 --> 0:32:28.160
<v Speaker 1>want a commitment to reevaluating some of the hiring practices

0:32:28.240 --> 0:32:31.360
<v Speaker 1>to make it say that the front office is basically

0:32:31.360 --> 0:32:33.440
<v Speaker 1>the people who are the decision makers with the league,

0:32:33.480 --> 0:32:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the coaches front offices um but the people in the

0:32:36.080 --> 0:32:39.120
<v Speaker 1>league office, they more closely reflect the racial makeup of

0:32:39.160 --> 0:32:41.720
<v Speaker 1>their players. They're competing for a commitment. We get into

0:32:41.880 --> 0:32:44.680
<v Speaker 1>more of that. So their demands from the players in

0:32:44.720 --> 0:32:49.120
<v Speaker 1>the NBA. That's some social justice stuff before there's a playoffs.

0:32:49.640 --> 0:32:53.480
<v Speaker 1>I didn't realize that. Yeah, it's evolved. They feel like

0:32:53.520 --> 0:32:57.880
<v Speaker 1>they have power now. They evolved from discussing the COVID

0:32:58.600 --> 0:33:01.719
<v Speaker 1>to some political stuff as well. Okay, I had that

0:33:01.760 --> 0:33:03.760
<v Speaker 1>in front of me. What else do they want? Does

0:33:03.800 --> 0:33:10.080
<v Speaker 1>anybody have that? Um, some shiny hats and more donations

0:33:10.080 --> 0:33:13.720
<v Speaker 1>to causes. Just being aligned with the issues that your

0:33:13.760 --> 0:33:18.560
<v Speaker 1>players find importance, as if there's a single monotone player. Boys,

0:33:18.600 --> 0:33:21.280
<v Speaker 1>it's interesting. But but there was pushback before any of

0:33:21.320 --> 0:33:24.479
<v Speaker 1>the social justice stuff came out along, just for like

0:33:24.600 --> 0:33:28.360
<v Speaker 1>lifestyle reasons. Right, the players are saying, because isn't the

0:33:28.400 --> 0:33:32.280
<v Speaker 1>plan all the teams go to one spot Disney, They're

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:33.920
<v Speaker 1>all going to stay in hotels, They're gonna be more

0:33:33.960 --> 0:33:37.760
<v Speaker 1>or less quarantined. They were digging that. Then the social

0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:40.000
<v Speaker 1>justice stuff came out. Well, and now the details of

0:33:40.040 --> 0:33:44.400
<v Speaker 1>the health stuff is coming out. Yeah. On the social

0:33:44.440 --> 0:33:46.120
<v Speaker 1>justice stuff, I mean, you're gonna have a certain per

0:33:46.160 --> 0:33:49.600
<v Speaker 1>centers of the league, saying, bring Bosnians to justice, because

0:33:49.600 --> 0:33:54.120
<v Speaker 1>it's a bunch of serbs and you know, Slavic type guys. Anyway,

0:33:54.600 --> 0:33:57.120
<v Speaker 1>let's see, the league sent a hundred and thirteen page

0:33:57.120 --> 0:34:00.520
<v Speaker 1>memo of health and safety protocols to the uh uh

0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:03.800
<v Speaker 1>all the teams that twenty two teams I guess involved

0:34:03.800 --> 0:34:06.480
<v Speaker 1>in the restart Tuesday night. By the way, is there

0:34:06.520 --> 0:34:08.880
<v Speaker 1>a is there is anybody putting a time limit on

0:34:08.920 --> 0:34:11.600
<v Speaker 1>these playoffs? Because the NBA playoffs usually wraps up like

0:34:11.719 --> 0:34:16.040
<v Speaker 1>right now, and so how far you can you push

0:34:16.040 --> 0:34:19.080
<v Speaker 1>you off? We can't be in December, long after the

0:34:19.120 --> 0:34:22.000
<v Speaker 1>next season, halfway through the next season talking about whether

0:34:22.080 --> 0:34:24.800
<v Speaker 1>or not we're going to have the playoffs for basically

0:34:24.800 --> 0:34:29.240
<v Speaker 1>the twenty nineteen season. Actually it was so it starts

0:34:29.239 --> 0:34:32.560
<v Speaker 1>stopped very early. We're talking about trying to come up

0:34:32.560 --> 0:34:36.080
<v Speaker 1>with a twenty nineteen champion more or less. Yeah, yeah,

0:34:36.239 --> 0:34:41.800
<v Speaker 1>nineteen slash twenty. But let's see. The memo reportedly included

0:34:41.880 --> 0:34:44.680
<v Speaker 1>some important information, including how often players will be tested.

0:34:44.719 --> 0:34:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Everyone in the Disney Bubble will receive a smart thermometer

0:34:47.920 --> 0:34:51.440
<v Speaker 1>they can use to check their temperature daily. How what

0:34:51.520 --> 0:34:54.040
<v Speaker 1>happens if a player test positive for the Chinese bat

0:34:54.080 --> 0:34:58.040
<v Speaker 1>fever the isolation housing. But the memo also features some

0:34:58.120 --> 0:35:00.640
<v Speaker 1>very specific safety standards for player is and staff to

0:35:00.719 --> 0:35:05.200
<v Speaker 1>follow in their living situation. Uh. Here's some of the highlights.

0:35:05.760 --> 0:35:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Doubles ping pong is prohibited unless directed otherwise by the NBA.

0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Players should play singles only so that they can maintain

0:35:12.560 --> 0:35:15.200
<v Speaker 1>six ft of distance from each other, even though they're

0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:17.160
<v Speaker 1>going to be on the court leaning on each other

0:35:17.200 --> 0:35:20.759
<v Speaker 1>for two hours and smashing into each other and not

0:35:20.840 --> 0:35:25.440
<v Speaker 1>even breathing very deeply exactly. No headsets allowed during video gaming.

0:35:25.600 --> 0:35:28.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't understand that one at all. What you don't

0:35:28.600 --> 0:35:31.920
<v Speaker 1>need to understand, you just need to comply. Card playing

0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:34.120
<v Speaker 1>is allowed, but each deck of cards must be thrown

0:35:34.120 --> 0:35:39.320
<v Speaker 1>away after use. That's idiotic. That is so freaking idiotic.

0:35:39.840 --> 0:35:41.759
<v Speaker 1>Doubles ping pong, but we can sider at a table

0:35:41.800 --> 0:35:46.320
<v Speaker 1>and play poker. Correct. You gotta throw away the cards

0:35:46.400 --> 0:35:51.680
<v Speaker 1>because they're filled with evil spirits. Wow, that is granular.

0:35:52.000 --> 0:35:55.680
<v Speaker 1>No caddies during golf, No sharing of clubs or malls,

0:35:56.560 --> 0:35:59.839
<v Speaker 1>no sharing of goggles or snorkels and swimming pools. Who

0:36:00.080 --> 0:36:08.120
<v Speaker 1>does that snorkel dude? Yeah? Sure? Here let me take

0:36:08.120 --> 0:36:11.200
<v Speaker 1>it out of my mouth and put it in yours. Well,

0:36:11.239 --> 0:36:14.680
<v Speaker 1>how many NBA players are using snorkels in the pool

0:36:14.719 --> 0:36:21.560
<v Speaker 1>like Disney ESPN, they're also grown men. No, if you

0:36:21.560 --> 0:36:24.640
<v Speaker 1>you can stay underwater indefinitely. Have you ever snorkeled? It's

0:36:24.640 --> 0:36:28.080
<v Speaker 1>great fun the fish. Maybe you're going to the ocean.

0:36:28.120 --> 0:36:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Since you get you're we'll take questions

0:36:35.000 --> 0:36:39.440
<v Speaker 1>at the end. Players are asked to avoid spitting or

0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:43.359
<v Speaker 1>clearing their nose. Rock I would, I wish nobody would

0:36:43.400 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 1>do that. Ever, you know who's the biggest snock professional ish?

0:36:50.600 --> 0:36:56.480
<v Speaker 1>My god, he's the massive snot rockets. Players are allowed

0:36:56.520 --> 0:36:58.719
<v Speaker 1>to are asked to avoid spitting or clearing the nose,

0:36:58.719 --> 0:37:00.839
<v Speaker 1>wiping the ball with their jersey, licking their hands, are

0:37:00.840 --> 0:37:05.399
<v Speaker 1>fiddling with their mouth guard during games. The good luck

0:37:05.560 --> 0:37:09.120
<v Speaker 1>that NBA Final Game seven, if necessary, would happen on October.

0:37:10.160 --> 0:37:15.160
<v Speaker 1>What doesn't the new season start like so? Another thing

0:37:15.160 --> 0:37:17.879
<v Speaker 1>that they're they're seriously looking at is the NBA has

0:37:17.880 --> 0:37:21.719
<v Speaker 1>long wanted to adjust their season when it happens so

0:37:21.760 --> 0:37:24.320
<v Speaker 1>they have more of there's less overlap with the NFL,

0:37:24.400 --> 0:37:27.000
<v Speaker 1>so they are the major sports league for a larger

0:37:27.000 --> 0:37:29.160
<v Speaker 1>percentage of their season. I think they're going to use

0:37:29.200 --> 0:37:31.160
<v Speaker 1>this as a as a reason to kind of start

0:37:31.200 --> 0:37:34.240
<v Speaker 1>the quote unquote start the all NBA seasons going forward.

0:37:34.360 --> 0:37:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Around Christmas time, players and staff are asked to maintain

0:37:38.680 --> 0:37:40.919
<v Speaker 1>six ft of physical space at all times off the court,

0:37:40.960 --> 0:37:43.919
<v Speaker 1>and cannot to wear a proximity alarm that goes off

0:37:43.960 --> 0:37:46.480
<v Speaker 1>when they spend more than five seconds within a six

0:37:46.520 --> 0:37:53.200
<v Speaker 1>ft radius of another person who's also in sex fate.

0:37:53.320 --> 0:37:56.640
<v Speaker 1>You are with in sex fate? How will the league

0:37:56.719 --> 0:37:59.920
<v Speaker 1>enforce all these guidelines? Will it create a ping pong patrol,

0:38:00.040 --> 0:38:03.120
<v Speaker 1>laur institute, nightly room checks. Charles Oakley is coming out

0:38:03.120 --> 0:38:05.719
<v Speaker 1>of retirement. He's gonna enforce it all well, and I

0:38:05.760 --> 0:38:09.440
<v Speaker 1>gotta believe absolutely, sir, Well, I know them married with

0:38:09.560 --> 0:38:12.560
<v Speaker 1>kids players are complaining that I'm gonna wait be away

0:38:12.600 --> 0:38:14.040
<v Speaker 1>from my family for all this time because you're not

0:38:14.160 --> 0:38:16.400
<v Speaker 1>You're supposed to stay there and not interact. What about

0:38:16.400 --> 0:38:18.879
<v Speaker 1>the single players? I gotta yeah, this is not the

0:38:19.000 --> 0:38:22.720
<v Speaker 1>NBA lifestyle, me playing ping pong every night with other dudes,

0:38:22.920 --> 0:38:26.680
<v Speaker 1>singles for months at a time. Players and team staff

0:38:26.680 --> 0:38:28.600
<v Speaker 1>will be given the option to use a wearable ring

0:38:28.640 --> 0:38:31.800
<v Speaker 1>that tracks heart rate respiration and other variables. The device

0:38:31.840 --> 0:38:35.160
<v Speaker 1>features an illness probability score. I just can't believe any

0:38:35.160 --> 0:38:37.600
<v Speaker 1>of this is gonna happen. No pets. You can bring

0:38:37.640 --> 0:38:40.200
<v Speaker 1>a trainer, massage therapist, but that counts toward your team's

0:38:40.200 --> 0:38:47.560
<v Speaker 1>thirty five person travel a lotment. M There's a hundred

0:38:47.560 --> 0:38:50.520
<v Speaker 1>and twelve pages of this. We'll see if it happens.

0:38:50.520 --> 0:38:53.960
