WEBVTT - He Bakes His Cake & Craps On It 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.080 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.240 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Ketty. 0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:24.160 Arm Strong and Gatti and He Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:25.239 --> 0:00:28.720 A British inventor says his tricked out trash can that 0:00:28.840 --> 0:00:32.239 broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest WHEELI bin 0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:35.280 can now reach a speed of sixty six miles per hour. 0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:37.520 And it's convenient. 0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:39.120 Because if he hits so much as a pebble on 0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:42.200 the highway, they can just close the lid and he's. 0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:42.839 Ready for burial. 0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:48.520 Trash bin that goes sixty miles an hour set a record. 0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:49.040 There, you go. 0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:52.000 Different people have different hobbies. You decide, you know what 0:00:52.040 --> 0:00:56.120 I'm gonna do. Good for you. You're probably happier than me. 0:00:56.160 --> 0:00:58.080 You've found a goal in life. You've accomplished it. I've 0:00:58.120 --> 0:00:59.480 accomplished none of my goals. 0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:03.000 Do you figure you came to it through a passion 0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:07.880 for trash bins, passion for a speed, passion for wheelies? 0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:10.400 Did he say wheelie speaking. 0:01:10.040 --> 0:01:11.600 Of trash You know what? I realized the other day 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:16.200 this is obvious, but it never occurred to me when 0:01:16.240 --> 0:01:17.679 I take out the trash which I now have my 0:01:17.720 --> 0:01:19.000 son doing at a a. 0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:21.000 Chore. 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.200 But when I take out the trash, I think, God, 0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:26.039 it seems like, I mean, this is the way. It 0:01:26.040 --> 0:01:28.880 seems like I'm doing this every other day as opposed 0:01:28.880 --> 0:01:29.840 to once a week. 0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:32.959 That is trash day. 0:01:33.000 --> 0:01:34.760 But it never occurred to me before you take the 0:01:34.760 --> 0:01:36.840 trash out one day, bring it in the next day. 0:01:36.840 --> 0:01:40.679 That's two days out of seven. It's twice as often 0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:42.759 as I'm dealing with trash as I ever. I've always 0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:44.840 thought of trash day being why is one day out 0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.920 of the week seem like it's so often, But it's 0:01:46.920 --> 0:01:49.040 actually twice as much as I thought, So that maybe 0:01:49.040 --> 0:01:51.280 that explains it. As they gotta wheel it out, Are 0:01:51.320 --> 0:01:54.120 you wheel it out to the curb neighborhood or yeah, yeah, 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:54.840 what you're talking about? 0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:56.000 Yeah, yeah, you gotta take it out there? 0:01:56.000 --> 0:01:59.240 And then three different trucks come by for some reason, 0:02:01.960 --> 0:02:02.960 somebody's getting paid. 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:03.960 Any who. 0:02:06.760 --> 0:02:10.680 We have some breaking news kind of Attorney General Pam 0:02:10.720 --> 0:02:16.120 Bondi has announced that the lady that led the disruption 0:02:16.320 --> 0:02:19.600 of those church services Sunday morning in Minneapolis has been arrested. 0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:24.000 Good civil rights violation, So yeah, I agree. Good, So 0:02:24.400 --> 0:02:25.960 let's get it on, let's discuss that. 0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:30.679 We start letting people bully their way into church services 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:31.600 to get publicity. 0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:32.520 They never end. 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:37.919 Oh and the ugliness, and people will righteously and appropriately decide, no, 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:39.720 we're not going to let that happen anymore. 0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:41.799 And then it's oh so ugly. 0:02:41.840 --> 0:02:44.120 And if they could arrest Don Lemon as a national 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:46.040 disgrace of some sort, I know, is that a crime? 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:50.360 But oh yeah, we actually have a heavily Don Lemon 0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:54.320 seasoned segment coming up at some point today in which 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:56.760 we are going to try him and convict him of 0:02:56.800 --> 0:02:59.520 being a disease and bury him. In other words, never 0:02:59.560 --> 0:03:02.840 bring him up again, because there's part of me that 0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:04.040 Hay Stephen mentioned. 0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:13.440 Is his publicity. How disgusting, sick, no moral name. So 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.120 I don't know if you know any of this about polling, 0:03:16.120 --> 0:03:19.000 but the New York Times Siena poll is a big deal. 0:03:19.200 --> 0:03:21.720 They spend tons of money on this. They only do 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:23.680 it a couple of times years. They put out lots 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.280 of polls, you know, weekly polls, like lots of news, 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:28.240 but they do this really big one a couple of 0:03:28.240 --> 0:03:30.160 times a year and usually gets a lot of attention 0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:33.640 because people have the feeling that over years, it has 0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:36.320 proven to be methodically. 0:03:37.560 --> 0:03:38.960 Accurate. They make good effort there. 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:43.400 So AnyWho, the headline being that few voters say trump 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:47.120 second term has made the country better. I like to 0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:49.760 put this in larger context, like I said last hour, 0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:52.440 is that the same people felt the same way about 0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:56.040 Biden and now they feel that way about Trump. And 0:03:56.040 --> 0:03:58.480 in Europe they feel that way about their leaders and 0:03:58.520 --> 0:04:01.480 they keep going back and forth Party party. For whatever reason, 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:05.520 Western civilization's just not happy with their governments, rightly or wrongly. 0:04:06.160 --> 0:04:11.120 But for all people, on the question of from a 0:04:11.160 --> 0:04:13.400 year ago, because yesterday was the one year anniversary of 0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:16.880 Trump being the president of the United States of America, 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:20.680 is your is the country better off, about the same. 0:04:20.520 --> 0:04:23.559 Or worse off? Do you want to answer how you'd answer? 0:04:25.080 --> 0:04:27.880 Oh gosh, I was waiting to hear your wisdom. I 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:29.280 wasn't really thinking. Would you like to hear what other 0:04:29.320 --> 0:04:32.000 people think before you give your answer? Well, that makes 0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:35.960 me sound like a conformist. It's not exactly your vibe. 0:04:36.520 --> 0:04:39.040 The Mike lung a anger Jack here, so enjoy the fireworks. 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:41.640 Oh boy, the answer is going to pick some knits. 0:04:42.320 --> 0:04:43.240 The answer is both. 0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:47.600 That's that's not an option in some regards and worse 0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:48.039 than others. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:49.960 So would you just tell spin on the poster and 0:04:50.040 --> 0:04:52.360 kick him in the shin and walk off, or just 0:04:52.400 --> 0:04:54.760 refused to participate or what They didn't really use a 0:04:54.800 --> 0:04:56.560 two hand shove right in the middle of the chest. 0:04:57.200 --> 0:04:58.400 They didn't give you that option. 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.080 All right, You don't get to write a say it's 0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:03.440 either worse half better, offer about the same. If you're 0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.320 going to answer the question, that's a poll for dumb people. 0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:09.240 I want to I want to, Okay, Well, if I'm 0:05:09.279 --> 0:05:12.640 given those three choices, I I I would go better. 0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:16.000 Off because I fear ago today. I guess getting unquestionable. 0:05:16.000 --> 0:05:17.680 I think closing the border and getting rid of all 0:05:17.680 --> 0:05:21.120 that DEI stuff and h taking on a lot of 0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:24.120 the craziest stuff that came out of you know, that 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:27.279 whole twenty twenty to twenty twenty three period was so 0:05:27.560 --> 0:05:32.480 huge for the country. I'd go better off versus I mean, uh, 0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:36.559 the tariff stuff nutty. Lots of things are nutty. 0:05:36.680 --> 0:05:37.240 Sure, YEA. 0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:42.760 One must take a moment to remind oneself that we 0:05:42.760 --> 0:05:48.160 were under the tutelage of a senile, just just an 0:05:48.400 --> 0:05:51.599 empty husk of a man who's never had any beliefs 0:05:52.000 --> 0:05:54.880 and whose brain wasn't functioning, and the country was actually 0:05:54.880 --> 0:05:58.839 being run by a cabal of you know, far left 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:04.160 academic fruit nuts who thought the craziest crap. Yeah, not chaotic, 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:07.080 but there have been There's a lot that's moving in 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:07.800 the right direction. 0:06:09.839 --> 0:06:13.440 So anyway, here's what Americans think about. Half say worse off, 0:06:13.640 --> 0:06:16.520 almost exactly the number that voted for Kamala Harris. Forty 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:19.880 nine percent say worse off. For better off, it's thirty 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:22.640 two percent, about the same nineteen percent. I kind of 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:26.480 feel like you about the same people are wishy washy. 0:06:27.720 --> 0:06:28.760 You're very judgmental. 0:06:29.080 --> 0:06:32.159 Uh, you break it down by Democrats, Republicans, and independence. 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:34.480 I don't know if anybody need that. It's about exactly 0:06:34.560 --> 0:06:40.800 what you would think. Yeah, different number. Do you approve 0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:43.120 or disapprove of the way Donald Trump is handling these 0:06:43.160 --> 0:06:45.359 different things, and he's upside down on all of them. 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:50.200 He's up upside down his job as president. He's got 0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:53.840 a forty percent approval, fifty six percent disapprove. His disapproved 0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:56.119 has been climbing. He used to be a fair number 0:06:56.160 --> 0:06:59.960 of wishy washy in betweens. No matter what is approval 0:07:00.120 --> 0:07:02.719 rating was there's almost no in betweens now that's almost 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.040 completely disappeared. It's fifty six disapproved, forty percent approved. But 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:08.800 we've gone through several cycles of presidents with that. 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:11.000 Border. 0:07:12.960 --> 0:07:15.640 This one ease on the right side of barely fifty 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:17.280 percent approve forty. 0:07:17.000 --> 0:07:18.360 Six disapprove on the border. 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:21.840 How do you possibly disapprove of what's been doing on 0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:24.320 the border. That's got to be people who are extrapolating 0:07:24.360 --> 0:07:26.640 that into the way ICE is handling things, and they 0:07:26.640 --> 0:07:28.360 feel like they've bought a part with that, because if 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:31.240 you're just going with the border, you're not. If you 0:07:31.320 --> 0:07:36.400 think it's not better, well yeah, and you're right. 0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.920 On the other hand, you could word it that that's 0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:42.600 a measure of what enormous damage the overreach and the 0:07:42.640 --> 0:07:45.080 over zealousness has done to the administration. 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:47.840 Standing I won't hit all these, just the ones I 0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.960 think are interesting Venezuela, because you often will say stuff like, well, 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:52.760 it doesn't matter if it's right or wrong. If the 0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:55.120 people believe it, that's going to change the politics, and 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:59.240 blah blah blah. It's and it's you know, it may 0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:02.920 be the perfect sample of a Trump baketh his own 0:08:03.040 --> 0:08:04.760 cake and then craps on it. 0:08:05.720 --> 0:08:07.760 Is that a Shakespeare or is that in the Bible? 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:13.120 Shakespeare? Was that Paul Shakespeare quoting the Bible? It's a 0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:14.800 perfect example of the Trump experience. 0:08:14.800 --> 0:08:16.880 Did he right? Was that? In his letter to the Galatians? 0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:21.960 He briefly mentioned it bakes his cake and then craps Yes, 0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:25.040 yes he may have said unleavened bread, but it was 0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:25.960 the same things. 0:08:28.200 --> 0:08:30.240 Thou hast defecate. It might have been fancy your words, 0:08:30.240 --> 0:08:31.000 but it's the same. 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:35.640 Venezuela, dost thou defecate on thine bread after baking it? 0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:36.319 Exquisitely? 0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:40.880 What's thine story? Why can't thine stop when thine is I? 0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:47.040 When thou ist a head? Righteth the prophet? Why dost 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:54.400 thou step on one's own genitalia? Exactly exactly the question 0:08:54.760 --> 0:09:01.560 the the elogians are asking. Zuela's upside down fifty three 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:05.240 forty one. I thought that was more popular than that, 0:09:06.880 --> 0:09:09.800 at least in this poll. It's not immigration in general, 0:09:09.880 --> 0:09:10.520 you know, I think. 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:14.000 That probably relates jack to the anecdote I said described 0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:18.440 yesterday about a friend who deals with athletes, and one 0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:21.160 of the athletes is from Venezuela. And a couple of 0:09:21.160 --> 0:09:24.200 people on campus if apologized to her for what the 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:25.880 United States did, and She's like. 0:09:25.760 --> 0:09:27.520 What what are you talking. 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:30.040 About, guys, A brutal dictator. It's the best thing that's 0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.480 ever happened to us. So there are a hell of. 0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:34.400 A lot of people who are coming at it from 0:09:34.520 --> 0:09:37.719 the you know, their TikTok news feeds, and it was 0:09:37.760 --> 0:09:38.760 a monstrous. 0:09:38.320 --> 0:09:40.480 And horrible thing to do. You can't. I can't hate 0:09:40.520 --> 0:09:41.840 them for that. That's all they get. 0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:45.200 No, Yeah, I'm almost what nicevie, You could run all 0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:48.960 these issues through the filter of if ninety eight percent 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:53.360 of the media wasn't telling you one direction, what would 0:09:53.400 --> 0:09:53.959 your w be? 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:56.720 Which is one of the reasons that I'm much more 0:09:57.840 --> 0:10:02.680 enthusiastic about outrich outr to people who never get the 0:10:02.720 --> 0:10:05.480 full picture, as opposed to just constantly be rating people 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.480 who think differently than me. I would much rather be 0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:11.200 speaking of the apostle, Paul. I want to go into 0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:14.560 the territories and talk to the people and say, hey, 0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:16.840 have you ever considered this. I'll probably end up getting 0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:19.560 hanged up that side down and become a martyr, But 0:10:20.120 --> 0:10:21.559 you know what I'm saying, a lot of these people 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:23.200 just never hear the other point of view. 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.000 Maybe we can some of these other issues later, but 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:27.079 I'll hit you with the two big ones that really 0:10:27.080 --> 0:10:31.120 got him elected. Well, the third immigration, he's upside down 0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:32.559 fifty eight to forty. That's got to be all the 0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.080 ice thing, but that's what he ran. And closing the border, 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:38.120 and he got the border closed. The economy, though, that's 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.240 what a lot of people were voting on, just flat 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:44.080 out the price of groceries, rent, et cetera, hoping that 0:10:44.120 --> 0:10:46.600 it would be better with a new president. Upside down 0:10:46.720 --> 0:10:49.760 fifty eight to forty, I mean an eighteen point spread there. 0:10:50.280 --> 0:10:52.880 And on the cost of living it's sixty four to 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:56.200 thirty four upside down negative. 0:10:56.320 --> 0:10:59.440 That's brutal. Yeah, that is it's hard to win with 0:10:59.480 --> 0:11:00.360 those numbers. 0:11:00.880 --> 0:11:02.640 And right, whether it's your fault or not, or rightly 0:11:02.760 --> 0:11:04.600 wrong or whatever, if people feel that way about the 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.839 cost of living, you're in bad shape. But look, I 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:11.640 like had a minor in economics decades ago, and I 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:14.440 would have been delighted to tell the administration, look, here's 0:11:14.480 --> 0:11:17.839 your challenge. We can't get most prices to come down. 0:11:17.880 --> 0:11:20.400 It's just not going to happen. So they'll either remain 0:11:20.559 --> 0:11:23.480 high or even with inflation at a manageable level, they'll 0:11:23.520 --> 0:11:26.440 keep getting a little bit higher. We've got a message 0:11:26.480 --> 0:11:29.880 hard and help people understand what's happening so we don't 0:11:29.880 --> 0:11:30.640 get blamed. 0:11:30.920 --> 0:11:32.200 They're just terrible at that. 0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.400 And one more stupid one, the Epstein Files. 0:11:35.600 --> 0:11:37.400 The birthday cake gets crapped on again. 0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:40.640 The Epstein Files upside down by forty four sixty six 0:11:40.679 --> 0:11:43.240 to twenty two. And you know, we know from the 0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:46.160 text and emails we get follow on Twitter and everything 0:11:46.200 --> 0:11:48.600 out that that's a lot of Republicans too. There's a 0:11:48.640 --> 0:11:51.040 lot of Democrats that don't like the Epstein File situation, 0:11:51.160 --> 0:11:54.560 and a lot of Republicans that I know who think 0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:57.600 that the BONDI and Trump are hiding something or whatever. 0:11:57.679 --> 0:11:59.760 I don't. I'm not with that crowd. 0:11:59.800 --> 0:12:03.960 But maybe later we'll get into the Is Donald Trump 0:12:04.040 --> 0:12:06.840 one of the best presidents in US history? Worst presidence 0:12:06.840 --> 0:12:10.319 in U history? Blah blah blah. What a dumb question 0:12:10.360 --> 0:12:12.079 to ask in the middle of a term. When you're 0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:15.040 into a term gets clicks, it does? We got more 0:12:15.040 --> 0:12:17.640 on the way, Stay here, Armstrong. 0:12:20.360 --> 0:12:22.960 Five of the biggest alcohol makers in the world are 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:26.840 sitting on what's described as a lake of unsold alcohol, 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:30.280 twenty two billion dollars worth of inventory, according to the 0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:33.800 Financial Times, the result of people drinking less than they 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:36.160 used to and to think there's still a week to 0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:37.880 go in dry January. 0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.559 A lake of unsold alcohol. Oh I'm buying a cabinet. 0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:46.400 Booze lake, tell you what boos lake? Oh yeah, I'll 0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:46.840 be there. 0:12:47.440 --> 0:12:49.480 Get you a canoe and you know what, you stand 0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:53.520 up on purpose? You want it to flip or justice 0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:54.640 to bring a Scooper with you. 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:59.960 Mm, although it would probably be like an unholy mixed 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:03.000 so like vodka and rum and scotch. 0:13:02.720 --> 0:13:06.040 And like did you like a Long Island ice stage? 0:13:06.040 --> 0:13:09.679 Did you ever watch that series on Netflix? Last Man 0:13:09.720 --> 0:13:11.360 on Earth? Everybody Died but Him? 0:13:12.080 --> 0:13:13.160 I watched a couple of episodes. 0:13:13.200 --> 0:13:17.679 It's kind of interesting. It's psychology of human nature. I mean, like, 0:13:17.720 --> 0:13:19.600 at first it was really funny. I was doing everything 0:13:19.640 --> 0:13:21.000 you'd want to do and everything in the world. Then 0:13:21.040 --> 0:13:24.520 it got really lonely and boring and on the unfulfilling 0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:27.800 very quickly. But in the first episode, he fills a 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:30.440 kiddie pool with tequila and he's laying in and he's 0:13:30.440 --> 0:13:32.800 got a straw inside of his mouth. He just leans 0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:35.520 over and drinks while he's laying in the kiddie pool 0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.880 filled with tequila. So that's what Boosleg would be like. 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:44.640 So are people really drinking that much less. 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:46.120 That? 0:13:46.280 --> 0:13:48.280 Yeah? Yeah, I believe so, why. 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.160 I guess is a question. Studies keep showing that people 0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:52.040 are drinking a lot. Let's what's the why is it? 0:13:52.120 --> 0:13:52.320 Hell? 0:13:52.440 --> 0:13:56.400 My gosh, I wish I knew. Yeah, that's part of it. 0:13:56.520 --> 0:13:59.720 The smoke dope. Thirty eight states allied to smoke dope legally, 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:02.960 thank you. Yeah. I think if you were to look 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:03.280 at the. 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.200 Cohort of people who used to and don't anymore, or 0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:09.040 would have and don't, you're gonna find three or four 0:14:09.040 --> 0:14:10.080 different explanations. 0:14:10.760 --> 0:14:13.600 Katie, I don't know how how big of an impact 0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:17.679 this would have. But the weight loss drugs make you 0:14:17.720 --> 0:14:18.800 not want alcohol? 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.920 Yes, interesting, Yeah, that's got to be one of the reasons. Yeah, 0:14:21.960 --> 0:14:24.160 I quit drinking twenty years ago. I think I probably 0:14:24.200 --> 0:14:26.920 by myself affected the statistics, So that's something. 0:14:27.600 --> 0:14:31.200 Yeah, I think it's generally concerned about health. That what 0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:35.560 Katie said, people are smoking more pot And then I 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.160 came across a really persuasive essay by a brilliant writer. 0:14:38.200 --> 0:14:41.040 I wish I could remember who suggesting that young people 0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:46.520 are so afraid of being out of control. They're just 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:52.240 they're so anxious and so lonely and isolated and online 0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:54.720 and everything, going out with their friends and hooton and 0:14:54.760 --> 0:14:56.680 hollering and having a couple of drinks. 0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:58.520 It's just not part of their lives. Wow. 0:14:58.800 --> 0:15:01.000 But sitting at home and smoking would be that. That's 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:06.200 a safer our some terms. Yeah, yeah, interesting times change. 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:12.400 Bill O'Reilly says he's stepping back for media appearances due 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:16.320 to malady and didn't say what. He's seventy six years old, 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:19.440 got some sort of health problem, So wish the West 0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:22.040 for best for Bill o'reiley. Always liked his well, mostly 0:15:22.080 --> 0:15:23.480 liked his act. The last time he was on our 0:15:23.480 --> 0:15:25.120 show he wouldn't let me talk, so we haven't had 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:27.480 him on since. But in general over the years, like 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:33.440 his act. Yeah, yeah, he's an interesting character. My language segment, 0:15:34.040 --> 0:15:37.320 oh boy, oh, is there other than dream interpretation? 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:39.840 Maybe the phone? Well it's not completely phony. 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.880 I guess somebody's sitting there leaning forward to their shoulders, 0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:46.000 hunched in there a red face with their jaws at 0:15:46.160 --> 0:15:49.960 You could probably assume they're pissed off. But oh, speaking 0:15:49.960 --> 0:15:52.200 of dream interpretation, did I actually tell you about the 0:15:52.240 --> 0:15:53.520 recurring dream I keep having? 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:55.800 Uh? So weird? 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:58.520 And this one, this is not one of those long 0:15:58.600 --> 0:16:03.640 rambling dreams. It's always same. I'm on the road. I'm 0:16:03.640 --> 0:16:06.520 traveling for a week for business, kind of your standard, 0:16:07.120 --> 0:16:11.280 low impact you know, in a hotel suite or whatever week. 0:16:11.640 --> 0:16:13.840 But I'm not going home after the week. 0:16:14.200 --> 0:16:16.600 I'm going to China for a week and a half 0:16:16.640 --> 0:16:20.400 to two weeks, and I'm dealing with the logistics of all, right, 0:16:20.400 --> 0:16:23.480 do I have enough clothes? Do I have the right clothes? Oh, 0:16:23.480 --> 0:16:25.840 my gosh, my passport? R I do have my passport 0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:27.680 because I'm going to be in China for two weeks. 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.040 And it's always the same, dam You have a recurring 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:36.280 dream about going to China and the minutia of the schlep, 0:16:36.760 --> 0:16:39.600 the logistics of it. Yeah, and it's always that I'm 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.200 already traveling and then I'm going to China. 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:43.960 That's the same plot. That's China. 0:16:44.120 --> 0:16:45.840 It's not a fun dream at all. You don't know 0:16:46.040 --> 0:16:48.280 why they're no orgasms. 0:16:48.320 --> 0:16:51.640 One dream, I actually was in China and was going 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:54.600 into some store thinking all right, I need some clean 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.640 underwear and maybe a bottle of Scotch to wind down with. 0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:01.040 And I'm looking around at all the Chinese you know words, 0:17:01.040 --> 0:17:02.920 and I'm thinking, what the hell? 0:17:03.000 --> 0:17:04.040 This is too stressful? 0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:08.360 We play interpreted mail bag at Armstrong and Giddy dot com. 0:17:08.520 --> 0:17:10.000 I think you're pregnant? We uh. 0:17:10.119 --> 0:17:12.320 We played this yesterday late in the show, The Treasury 0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:16.240 Secretary take going after Gavin Newsom for a variety of reasons. 0:17:16.280 --> 0:17:17.760 We had to play it again because it's pretty good 0:17:19.000 --> 0:17:20.159 Armstrong and Geeddy. 0:17:21.680 --> 0:17:24.480 So this first thing we played yesterday, but a lot 0:17:24.480 --> 0:17:26.240 of you didn't hear it, and it's one of those 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:27.119 things that even if you. 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:28.520 Did hear it, you're gonna want to hear it again. 0:17:29.520 --> 0:17:34.560 The Secretary of the Treasury, which is usually held by 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:39.240 somebody who's just dry as the Sahara. 0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:44.159 Desert and restrained and careful for good reason. 0:17:44.440 --> 0:17:46.199 Yeah, I'm not somebody to want to hang out with 0:17:46.200 --> 0:17:49.040 at a party, right, But this Besson guy is interesting. 0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:52.120 He's the one at a dinner party last year threatened 0:17:52.119 --> 0:17:55.240 to efing punch a dude in the effing face in 0:17:55.320 --> 0:17:57.560 front of in front of thirty other people. 0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:01.040 I was trying to undermine him to the president. He's 0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:02.480 called him out, and I. 0:18:02.520 --> 0:18:06.320 Like to mention this every time he is openly gay, 0:18:06.680 --> 0:18:10.520 but never ever gets mentioned because he's not a Democrat, 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:14.320 the first openly gay secretary of the Treasury. No. No, 0:18:14.359 --> 0:18:17.760 those things only count and are held up as very important, 0:18:17.800 --> 0:18:18.400 which it's not. 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:22.120 If you're a Democrat. Correct. 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:27.879 Compare the enthusiastic reportage on Scott Bessant and his orientation 0:18:28.080 --> 0:18:30.720 versus say, KJP, it's. 0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:34.639 Hilarious, back to you, ridiculous any who. Here's what he 0:18:34.680 --> 0:18:37.040 had to say about Gavin Newsom, who was scheduled to 0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:39.760 speak today at Davos and then it got canceled. More 0:18:39.760 --> 0:18:42.560 on that later, but here's the Treasury secretary. 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:44.560 I think it's very very. 0:18:46.960 --> 0:18:50.919 Ironic that you Governor Newsom, who strikes me as Patrick 0:18:50.960 --> 0:18:55.560 Bateman meets Sparkle beach Ken, maybe the only Californian who 0:18:55.600 --> 0:19:01.600 knows less about economics than Kamala Harris. He's here this 0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:06.359 week with his billionaire sugar daddy, Alex Soros, and the 0:19:06.720 --> 0:19:10.160 Davos is a perfect place for a man who when 0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:12.919 everyone else is on lockdown, when he was having people 0:19:13.000 --> 0:19:16.280 arrested for going to church, he was having thousand dollars 0:19:16.280 --> 0:19:19.320 a night meals at the French laundry, and I'm sure 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:21.199 the California people won't forget that. 0:19:21.720 --> 0:19:24.600 So why is he getting in Gavin Newsom's shorts Davos 0:19:25.080 --> 0:19:30.920 Well unfortunate metaphor. Newsom had been invited to speak yesterday 0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:34.480 at an event sponsored by USA House, which for the 0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:36.399 first time was recognized by the US government as a 0:19:36.400 --> 0:19:39.679 country's official headquarters at Davos, whatever the hell that means. 0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:45.280 But at the laicestish minute, an organizer told GAVI's office 0:19:45.320 --> 0:19:49.720 that we've decided not to include any US officials. We're 0:19:49.720 --> 0:19:53.879 going to focus on CEOs and business leaders. They canceled 0:19:53.920 --> 0:19:58.040 the governor of the California, fifth biggest economy in the world, 0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:01.479 who was there specifically, I said earlier in a week, 0:20:01.520 --> 0:20:03.720 and I think it would have been true the biggest 0:20:03.760 --> 0:20:07.000 speech perhaps of his life, of his running for president 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.840 career thus far. Yes, he was going to bad mouth 0:20:09.880 --> 0:20:11.399 Trumpe in front of all the world leaders. They were 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:14.240 going to cheer him like crazy. He was going to 0:20:14.280 --> 0:20:18.240 be huge for him. And Trump said, how about he doesn't. 0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:20.280
