1 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:15,280 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:19,360 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty. 3 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:36,640 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Jetty and he Arms from Studio C. 4 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: See we're in a dimly lit room on a little Friday, 5 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. 6 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,639 Speaker 1: And hey y'all today we're under the tutelage of our 7 00:00:47,680 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: general manager. No smelling salts. What were those sounds you 8 00:00:55,600 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: were making. I did not like those noises you're making. 9 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: Those could have been That could have been a number 10 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:04,960 Speaker 1: of things going on there. That's I'm not responsible for 11 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: your perverse thoughts, sir. 12 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 3: Huh. 13 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: So the NFL is banning smelling salts and the players 14 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 1: are angry. 15 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 3: What that's interesting? So that's the that's the stuff. 16 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,400 Speaker 1: You get your bell rung, as they used to call it, 17 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:22,679 Speaker 1: which means you've damaged your brain, perhaps irreparably. H They 18 00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: come out with the smelling salts to wake you back 19 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: up again. She can get it back out there and 20 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: smash your head around some more. 21 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:27,960 Speaker 4: Well. 22 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: And it turns out some guys use them like before 23 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 1: every drive, before they run on the field, just to 24 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: get jolt. 25 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 3: Of Wow, I didn't know that. 26 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: Okay, well that's probably that probably needs to be banned, right, 27 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: it's mean it's a four in that stiffness was America? Huh, 28 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: I guess that was wrong. I'm sure you can take 29 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 1: caffeine though. So the smelling salts something buy over the 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 1: counter or not. I don't even know. And it's it's 31 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: like ammonia and a couple of other ingredients in there. 32 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 3: I don't know. 33 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: And yeah, often can you buy that over the counter. 34 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 1: You can buy it at the drug store. You should 35 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: be able to use it. If you need a prescription, 36 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: you probably shouldn't. That's my ruling. I know nothing about 37 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 1: quote unquote smelling salts. We didn't get into yesterday. The 38 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:17,560 Speaker 1: big giant deal that ESPN has made with the NFL, 39 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:22,119 Speaker 1: and there's all kinds of other networks involved. Anyway, it's 40 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:26,200 Speaker 1: going to be a whole bunch of different NFL packages 41 00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 1: that are available on all the ESPN channels, and then 42 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 1: all kinds of moving games around to all these different 43 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: networks to try to promote the different networks. So, if 44 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, we were headed this direction, but there are 45 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: going to be a lot more different places to find 46 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,680 Speaker 1: your NFL games than in the past. It wasn't that 47 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:47,079 Speaker 1: many years ago. It seemed to me when I was 48 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: a big NFL fan, if I wanted to watch the NFC, 49 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: it was on CBS. If I want to watch the 50 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: AFC was on NBC. Period. End of story. I mean, 51 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 1: I knew exactly where to find my game. Now you 52 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: need to figure out what channel it's on, and then 53 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,919 Speaker 1: it's a question whether or not you have that channel. 54 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: You have to decide whether you want to pay extra 55 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: to get that channel to see your Chiefs game or 56 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: your forty nine Ers game or whatever your own to watch. Right, Yeah, yeah, 57 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: I'll just have to wait and see it. Is it 58 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: going to be more confusing than it is now already 59 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: or less? I mean, is it all going to be 60 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: ESPN related? Most of the stuff I read about it 61 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: yesterday was indicating that it's going to be more confusing, 62 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:29,720 Speaker 1: but that could just be naysayers. 63 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 3: I don't know. 64 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: There's also some decisions to be made. I saw some 65 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: good mockery of this yesterday with lots of bundling that's 66 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:39,760 Speaker 1: going on of different channels, and somebody making the comment 67 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: that would be interesting if they had all the channels 68 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 1: bundled together, and we could call it, I don't know, 69 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: cable or something, and all your channels are coming one spot, 70 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: you know, because oh boy, you could get them from 71 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: one provider right right, which it seems to be the 72 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: direction we're kind of headed. So I don't know, but 73 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: it does speak to the ever changing nature of where 74 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: we get our information and how we get it. I mean, 75 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: it's got a lot to do with why Stephen Colbert 76 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: is going away despite people's talk about is politics. Just 77 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: all the different outlets out there for entertainment and how 78 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 1: you get it, and most people who watch the late 79 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: night shows, I watch every single moment of television on 80 00:04:23,839 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: my phone, never on my television. So and I'm sure 81 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: lots of young people do how do they count that? 82 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,799 Speaker 1: Do they count that? I don't even know streaming numbers, 83 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: and just the greater economy of entertainment and information is 84 00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,799 Speaker 1: just so quickly changing. 85 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know what a ratings even mean. 86 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 1: You hear people referencing ratings please well in a quaint 87 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: term of yesterdayear well. One of the reasons the ratings 88 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: are so inaccurate is the purpose of ratings. As people 89 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 1: who are in this business, the purpose of ratings or 90 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: not to let you the listener know what's the number 91 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: one show or the number five show or whatever it's 92 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 1: let advertisers know where's the best place to put their 93 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: ads or how many eyeballs or earballs are gonna catch 94 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:06,919 Speaker 1: their ad. 95 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 3: Well, when. 96 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,160 Speaker 1: The TV show in question could have been watched on 97 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: CBS at eight o'clock, there's those ads on there, or 98 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: in bits and pieces on YouTube with different ads, or 99 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,800 Speaker 1: maybe on Instagram with even different ads, or wherever, or 100 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: on the CBS streaming service with different ads. There's no 101 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,000 Speaker 1: reason for the advertisers to get an overall rating of 102 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: CBS for instance, right right, So then you left out 103 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: Maybe you have the ad free package right somewhere and 104 00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: you're paying a premium for that, and that money is 105 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 1: just a good point. I pay extra to have YouTube, 106 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 1: so I don't get the ads, but that money gets 107 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:48,159 Speaker 1: spread out somehow. 108 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 3: I don't even know what to the various shows. 109 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, there's something about the random placement of 110 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: the ads in YouTube that made me completely insane and 111 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:57,640 Speaker 1: made me spring for it. 112 00:05:57,839 --> 00:05:58,600 Speaker 3: So you'd be like. 113 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,840 Speaker 1: Mid song, sentence, mid plot twist, whatever, and just all 114 00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: of a sudden, Yeah, So that's effective. 115 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:07,200 Speaker 3: We got to start doing it. 116 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: Bro. 117 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 3: That is brought to you better just right in the 118 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 3: middle of a sentence. It's horrible. 119 00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 1: Where you find your Bengals Chargers game in October is 120 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: probably a minor question compared to what do these tariffs 121 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,239 Speaker 1: that kicked in overnight due to the economy. Nobody knows. 122 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: We're all gonna wait and see. But all the rest 123 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 1: of the stuff kicked in today, and now we are, 124 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 1: in Ian Remmers's we're in a global trade war. It's 125 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 1: just there's a global trade war going on now. I 126 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: don't know if that overstates it or not, but it's 127 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: sure interesting that one guy can kick that off. One 128 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: guy on planet Earth out of eight billion can kick 129 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: off a global trade war. He did run on this, 130 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: so it's not like it's a surprise or shouldn't be 131 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,039 Speaker 1: a surprise to his voters. But you wouldn't think one 132 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: guy would have the power to do. 133 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:55,239 Speaker 3: That, and I didn't. 134 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, as I often say, it's possible to do 135 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 1: the right thing in the wrong way as well. And 136 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: you know, Trump claims a lot of stuff. I'm not 137 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: sure people pictured this unfolly. Here's your key takeaway, I think, 138 00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,679 Speaker 1: and I based this on extensive study of the question. 139 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: There are rumbles. 140 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: Now clearly, especially on the producer level, of the effects 141 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: of the massive tax increase that the tariff is. It 142 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: is a massive tax increase. Who ends up paying? The 143 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: text obviously is you know, still a question. I don't 144 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: think we the consumer will truly feel it until October ish. 145 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: That's my guesstimate based on what I've been reading. October 146 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: or maybe a little sooner, maybe a little later than that. 147 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: But if you're looking around and there are like Trump 148 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: boosting channels where we try very very hard to be 149 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 1: a truth telling show as opposed to a Trump bashing 150 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 1: or a Trump boosting, I personally want to know. I 151 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:01,320 Speaker 1: want to know, Yeah, I know, Actually, what's going to 152 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 1: happen with these tariffs? On your Trump boosting channels they're saying, 153 00:08:04,440 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 1: say they've predicted it and be terrible, and there'll be inflation, 154 00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: and there's not and the economy's good. Well, okay, Number one, 155 00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: they were talking about the whole Liberation Day madness and 156 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: that never happened. Secondly, those birds have not yet come 157 00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 1: home to roost for a variety of reasons. I think 158 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: will truly be feeling what this is going to be 159 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: like in the latter part of this year, and I 160 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: think it'll be ugly and honestly, for all of my 161 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: vociferous support for a lot of what the Trump administration 162 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: is doing, I think this will be a scene as 163 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:43,720 Speaker 1: a serious misstep and might even be the unfortunate legacy 164 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:45,319 Speaker 1: oh of the Trump heres. 165 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 3: I hope it's not. 166 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: I'm rooting for it not to be, but it's not 167 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: hard to picture it being the only thing people say 168 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 1: about Donald Trump fifty years from now that had become 169 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: joking sort of historic moment. 170 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 3: I've jokingly said many times I'd rather be right than happy. 171 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 3: I would. 172 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: I want very very much to be wrong on this one. 173 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 1: I don't I'm not making a prediction, but I hope 174 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: it doesn't go the way you just said. I was 175 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,560 Speaker 1: listening to the News Nation and they their analysis was, 176 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 1: according to some poll or something like that, sixty some 177 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: percent of businesses say they're going to have to pass 178 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 1: the tariff cost on to consumers to a pretty great degree, 179 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 1: with a third of those saying ninety percent of the 180 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 1: tariffs are going to be passed on to consumers if 181 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 1: that happens shortly. Because the question is in October when 182 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: they land. Is it going to be a yeah, I 183 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: guess prices seem a little higher. Or is it going 184 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,880 Speaker 1: to be like during COVID where every time you buy 185 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: anything you go holy crap. 186 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah. And one big caveat is was Trump because. 187 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: This and part of the concern about this whole process 188 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 1: has is that it's been so nuts. I mean, it's 189 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: been so unpredictable and quickly changing and whip saw ish. 190 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 3: Uh. 191 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:07,680 Speaker 1: There's absolutely chance that on September first he announces all right, 192 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:11,439 Speaker 1: I've made my point, We're going blanket eight percent tariffs. 193 00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 3: Let's do some business. 194 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: It's possible Wall Street has not reacted yet for whatever 195 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: that might mean. 196 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: I had one more COVID or a tariff note, I 197 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 3: don't remember what it was. Well it has though, but 198 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 3: I don't want to argue that point. A great piece. 199 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,320 Speaker 1: I was just reading about how the economy would be 200 00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 1: doing right now without all the uncertainty and madness. It 201 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: might be the juggernaut golden age that Trump had promised. 202 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: I guess my only point is, well, the stock market 203 00:10:43,040 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: didn't open a thousand points lower. 204 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,920 Speaker 3: Because of the tariff starting today right. 205 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 1: The other Trump thing is, uh, is there going to 206 00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 1: be a meeting between Putin and Trump face to face 207 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: within days with Zelensky. That's the claim of the Trump administration. Anyway, 208 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:00,599 Speaker 1: we'll talk about that more or later. We need to 209 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: start the show officially, or we get tariff. There's an 210 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: eighty percent on a tariff. We're not starting to show 211 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 1: on time. Start then I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty 212 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:12,360 Speaker 1: on this. It is Thursday, August seventh, year, twenty twenty five, 213 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: or Armstrong and getting and we approve of its program. Okay, 214 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 1: then let's begin officially according to CC rules of regulations. 215 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 3: Here we go at Mark. 216 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 5: Look, the whole thing is a hoax, is put out 217 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 5: by the Democrats because we've had the most successful six 218 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 5: months in the. 219 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: History of our country. 220 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 5: And that's just a way of trying to divert attention 221 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 5: to something that's total both. 222 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 1: What's he talking about Epstein thing? Oh, the Epstein thing. Okay, 223 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:45,199 Speaker 1: a knee bomb. Already on the show, I saw ro Kanna, 224 00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: the popular congressman from California who's now barn storming in 225 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: South Carolina, which is weird. He's run for president. He's 226 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 1: looking into it anyway, he's saying it out loud. Yeah, 227 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,080 Speaker 1: he's exploring the idea of running for president. The other 228 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: thing he's saying out loud is yeah, the Epstein thing 229 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: is a great way to drive a wedge between the 230 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,800 Speaker 1: Trump base. Sure, different parts of the Trump base. So yeah, 231 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 1: that's why we're hammering it. 232 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 3: It's funny. 233 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,680 Speaker 1: Maybe it's that there's so much political talk going on 234 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: right now and the headlines are feverish and everybody's in 235 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: their media bubbles. You can actually now say that out loud. 236 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:20,920 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, we don't care about this. We're just trying 237 00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: to screw up his base. And is that because it 238 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: won't reach enough people to ruin it? 239 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:26,839 Speaker 3: Yeah? 240 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was funny. At first, I was like, oh 241 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 1: my god, he said that out loud. But then I realized, well, 242 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 1: wait a minute, you're hardcore.

That's like. 345 00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 1: Coffee cups are a thing. I don't know if you've 346 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: ever been to a store. Lots of people drink out 347 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: of coffee cups, but they don't spill. 348 00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:17,400 Speaker 3: Them all over themselves all the time. Your child anyway, 349 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:18,639 Speaker 3: from the Babylon b. 350 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 4: WNBA warns if you throw anything onto the court, you 351 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 4: will be forced to attend ten more WNBA games. 352 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 3: Now that's appendly. 353 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 1: Oh that story factors in the mail bag as well. 354 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:36,320 Speaker 1: Coming up, the chucking of marital aids onto the court 355 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: has now become well, I won't Well, you know how 356 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,200 Speaker 1: you can bet on anything on a sports game? Now? 357 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 5: Oh? 358 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: Really, stay with us? Can you bet on the size 359 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:58,080 Speaker 1: and color? Also, I'm going medium red. Then I'll place 360 00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:01,960 Speaker 1: my wager. Before we get to the other headline, I 361 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:03,880 Speaker 1: wanted to get this one on. Mark Alpern on his 362 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: newscast that I watched a little of this morning, said, 363 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 1: the media continues to make heroes out of all the 364 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: Democrats in Texas who are talking about redistricting or Democrats 365 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,679 Speaker 1: all across the country. Mark Alpern said and has written, 366 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: I'll continue to say, if you're outraged about what Texas 367 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: is doing, you should be outraged about what. 368 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,960 Speaker 3: Illinois already did, and outraged about what New York already 369 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 3: did and what California already did. 370 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: The mainstream media is is it because they're all young 371 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 1: and stupid or are they purposefully leaving out the fact 372 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: that this is not a new invention redistricting to try 373 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:43,360 Speaker 1: to get the maximum number of your party right, And indeed, 374 00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: if Texas is one hundred percent successful in their nefarious aims, 375 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:52,159 Speaker 1: they will be slightly more jerrymannered than New York, but 376 00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,159 Speaker 1: substantially less than California and Illinois. 377 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 3: What we got to play the clip to Colbert's credit. 378 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,879 Speaker 1: So Colbert had the gup of Illinois on the other 379 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,200 Speaker 1: day Pritzker night before last and held up a map 380 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 1: to him and showed, I got to ask you about this. 381 00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: These are Illinois districts and look at this one. What 382 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,359 Speaker 1: is this a scorpion with the tale that goes all 383 00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: the way up there? He said, Isn't this basically what 384 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: Texas is trying to do? So good for Colbert, and 385 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,440 Speaker 1: we'll play that in the answer a little bit later. 386 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:29,159 Speaker 1: Different different story. Trump's guy meeting with Putin yesterday to 387 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 1: discuss ending the war in a ceasefire, which well, and 388 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: what came out of that is pretty interesting. Here's ABC 389 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: News version of it. 390 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 6: President Trump saying there is a good prospect that there 391 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 6: could be a summit with Vladimir Putin and Ukraine's President Zelenski. 392 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 6: This follows a face to face meeting between Putin and 393 00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,440 Speaker 6: Trumps Special Envoy Steve Whitcoff in Moscow. Witkoff told President 394 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:56,640 Speaker 6: Trump that Putin would like to meet with him, which 395 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 6: President Trump said he is open to if, and this 396 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 6: is a. 397 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 3: Very big if. 398 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 6: Putin also meets with Zelensky. So while he sounded optimistic, 399 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:08,760 Speaker 6: even President Trump said he would not call this a breakthrough. 400 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 1: So do you think Putin wants to meet with Trump 401 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,119 Speaker 1: and Zolensky or not? 402 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: Two answers to that. 403 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: First of all, little background, normally m mmm, until really 404 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: the Trump hears you wouldn't have a quote unquote summit 405 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: unless everything was decided. The summit is kind of the 406 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 1: ceremony where you have meetings. 407 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 3: I don't like that, though. I prefer Trump's version. I don't. 408 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 3: I don't like that. 409 00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:35,400 Speaker 1: I don't like the people's saying this breaks all the norms. Yeah, 410 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: where you have like fifty meetings over a year and 411 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,199 Speaker 1: a half, just sit down, figure it out, get the 412 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 1: deciders around the table, and hash it out. So I 413 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:48,959 Speaker 1: was gonna say, so this summit definitely you know it 414 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 1: could be successful, neutral, or unsuccessful, unlike ones in the past. 415 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: The second answer your question is does Putin actually want it? 416 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 1: If I every single interaction with Putin must be approached 417 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 1: as though you're playing cards with a professional cheater. Well, 418 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: just a high, high degree of defensiveness and skepticism. There's 419 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: that he also plays lots of mind games, as we 420 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: all know. That's part of what he did for a 421 00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 1: living in the KGB. I would think it would be 422 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 1: to his advantage to sit there with Zolensky and find 423 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 1: a way, probably with Trump's help, to make Zelensky twist off. 424 00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:36,160 Speaker 1: I think that would be to Putin's advantage. I don't 425 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: know how Zelensky could sit there and stay calm in 426 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: the face of some of the things Putin would be 427 00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: likely to say, just flat out lies about Ukraine started 428 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 1: it or we're not bombing civilians or whatever. After everything 429 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: Zolensky's been through emotionally, and know Trump might join in 430 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,640 Speaker 1: on Putin's side in that meeting, and I don't know. 431 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:00,719 Speaker 3: How you'd keep your temper. 432 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: And Zelensky's at a disadvantage because he has a living 433 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: soul and Putin does not right or Putin who again, 434 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: if you underestimate Putin for a single second, you are 435 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:13,679 Speaker 1: a fool. 436 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 3: He you know, and this is like the best case. 437 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: He comes with a quote unquote bargain that is way 438 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:27,520 Speaker 1: more than Zelensky could accept, really, but insists I laid 439 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 1: down my arms tomorrow if we reach this bargain. Knowing 440 00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 1: Trump for a variety of reasons, some of which are 441 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: very admirable and interesting, Trump is desperate to end the killing, 442 00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 1: and so Putin hands him here's how to end the killing. 443 00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: Swear to God, I'll lay it down my arms tomorrow. 444 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: But it's a maximalist, you know demand set of demands. 445 00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: I keep the land that I've already taken. I don't 446 00:23:53,960 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: know this and the other thing, I don't know any 447 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: reparations for damage done right about the things? Uh yeah, 448 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,239 Speaker 1: I've got. In short, I got a bad feeling about it. 449 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: I just don't know how as a human being, Zelensky 450 00:24:09,920 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 1: could keep from losing his mind if you ended up 451 00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:16,919 Speaker 1: with like an Oval office tone from that famous meeting 452 00:24:17,040 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: there with Putin sitting there and Trump goes with some 453 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:24,119 Speaker 1: sort of look. Both sides have plenty of blame here. 454 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 1: I mean, I would flip the table over if he 455 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: says you started it. He says you started it, so 456 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 1: come on right? Yeah, no, No, that'd be hard to 457 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:40,919 Speaker 1: take when you've seen all the dead bodies of old, 458 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: young and in between, and soldiers and the families and 459 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:48,240 Speaker 1: everything like that. I think Zelensky would do it. 460 00:24:48,240 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 3: How would he not. 461 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,280 Speaker 1: If it's an opportunity to stop this, But god dang it, 462 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 1: and it's also possible. My first thought when I heard 463 00:24:55,640 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: this was, okay, the sanctions kick in on India Friday, 464 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 1: and that India is the number two buyer of Russia's 465 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,639 Speaker 1: oil something like forty China is the number one buyer, 466 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,160 Speaker 1: and Putin might be just dragging this out the way 467 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: he does. If I can drag this out for another week, 468 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:22,359 Speaker 1: why not claiming a summit that I have no intention 469 00:25:22,400 --> 00:25:26,480 Speaker 1: of actually doing right And as a bonus, driving a 470 00:25:26,520 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 1: wedge between India and the United States. Where would they 471 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 1: can where would the summit be? Putin can't really leave Russia, 472 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: can he? 473 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 3: Yeah? Other than going to China, some. 474 00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: Like Belarus, some very friendly country, don't I don't know. 475 00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:47,040 Speaker 1: Interesting question, and just the prospect of a handshake or whatever. 476 00:25:47,920 --> 00:25:50,239 Speaker 1: How could you, well, you tell me if you could you, 477 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: if you're Zelensky, could you walk into that room and 478 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: shake hands and sit there and and and let the 479 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: thing be portrayed? 480 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,639 Speaker 3: As you know, there's blame on both sides. 481 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,159 Speaker 1: Well, with all respect to your and I agree with you, 482 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 1: actually a description of how Trump's summits are actual negotiations 483 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: and meetings as opposed to the old ceremonies. If I'm Zelensky, 484 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,200 Speaker 1: I can't accept that. I'm not going to go into 485 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: a room with the volatile Trump and the master mind 486 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: evil Putin and just see how I do. That sounds 487 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: like a terrible idea, unless you have to having done 488 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:28,280 Speaker 1: that once with Trump, and it went very sideways, as 489 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 1: we all remember, right, you know. 490 00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 3: And Zelensky's to blame for some of that to a 491 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:34,200 Speaker 3: large extent. 492 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,800 Speaker 1: But for the reasons I was just saying, people say 493 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: some things that cause you to lose your temper, which 494 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 1: could easily happen there in front of Trump and Putin. 495 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:45,880 Speaker 3: Oh god, that would be a disaster. 496 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: If Putin wants it. I am extremely suspicious of it period. 497 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 1: I think he's just delaying to try to stave off the. 498 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:02,719 Speaker 3: Tariffs. Yeah, I think he nailed it. 499 00:27:02,720 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 1: He's going to delay as much as possible, then maybe 500 00:27:04,840 --> 00:27:07,199 Speaker 1: go ahead, and then when it goes off the rails 501 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,919 Speaker 1: or is just unsuccessful, he's got a plausible means to 502 00:27:12,200 --> 00:27:14,360 Speaker 1: or reason to blame Zelensky for the. 503 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,720 Speaker 3: Lack of success. 504 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:17,840 Speaker 1: So a lot of people are watching to see is 505 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: Trump gonna come out today and say tariffs are on 506 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:27,160 Speaker 1: hold with India because of the budding summit talks, which 507 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,520 Speaker 1: would be exactly what Putin wants. I think as opposed 508 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: to know, tariffs go straight ahead until there's a ceasefire. 509 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 3: Tariffs are on We'll see. 510 00:27:37,600 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: It was pointed out as watching Morning Joe today and 511 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: he said, for all the taco talk and everything else 512 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: about Trump, he did give it Iran a sixty day deadline, 513 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: and then when they didn't meet, it bombed the crap. 514 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 3: Out of them. Yeah, Israels a nod? And then followed up. 515 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: So there is some serious precedent of following through on 516 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 1: these threads, like really recently, like world history making, bombing Iran. 517 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 1: So who knows what's gonna happen, but dang it, that's 518 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: quite the development now on the mind games of who 519 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 1: asked for it? The Kremlin saying Trump asked fort and 520 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:13,800 Speaker 1: Trump saying the Kremlin ass wort. 521 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 3: I don't have any idea. 522 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: Which is true, Michael, this one's for you, and I 523 00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 1: think all of it is just an effort to distract 524 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: from the Epstein thing. 525 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 3: Wow, doubled him. 526 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:31,280 Speaker 1: Over, doubled him over right in the solar plexus. 527 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:36,360 Speaker 3: Didn't see that come. You got him good. Luckily. 528 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: Even though I spilled my coffee and got on my shirt, 529 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: none of it got on my new American Eagle Nazi jeans. 530 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 3: I'm wearing white supremacy jeans today. Wow. 531 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 1: It reeks. It drips of eugenics. I drip of coffee 532 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:54,360 Speaker 1: and eugenics. Wow in Nuremberg blue.

I thought like I was 536 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: trying to like I was trying to be sexy. I 537 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: thought a sixty year old bald man posing in the 538 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 1: Sydney Sweeney outfit would be, on its face, ridiculous enough. 539 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 1: But that's what I was going. 540 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 3: For, is ridiculous.

Caesar Bonusana di Beccaria, Okay, who was 566 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: an Enlightenment thinker, lived in the seventeen hundreds, an Italian criminologist, jurist, philosopher, economist, 567 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: and politician. 568 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,680 Speaker 3: Whose work I was not familiar with. 569 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: The quote's terrific if it's legit, and I think it is, 570 00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: judging on judging by what I've read about them.

They serve rather to encourage than to 575 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 1: prevent homicides. For an unarmed man may be attacked with 576 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: greater confidence than an armed man.
