1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,600 Speaker 1: Made in America. You'd have to take out a mortgage. 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:03,360 Speaker 2: It's one more. 3 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,320 Speaker 3: Thing, one more thing. 4 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:11,800 Speaker 2: Before we get to that. Okay, do you go to 5 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:16,920 Speaker 2: the gym every day? I've heard of these my whole life. 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,320 Speaker 2: I've never done them. What is a crunch. 7 00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:23,560 Speaker 4: It's like a sit up where your knees are bent 8 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:25,720 Speaker 4: and your elbows and your knees touch. 9 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:28,480 Speaker 2: Sit up where your knees are bent and you touch 10 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:28,880 Speaker 2: your own. 11 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 4: Feet off the ground. 12 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you don't have to have your feet off 13 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 1: the ground really technically, but it's not like a full 14 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: set up because they figured they found out that it's 15 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: not good for your back or something. 16 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 3: So it's like a semi sit up. 17 00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 2: I've done a gazillion sit ups in my life, but 18 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 2: it's working the same muscles. Crunches and sit ups. 19 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, you can terminal muscles, yeah, different parts anyway. 20 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,560 Speaker 1: You can like alternate elbow, right elbow to left knee 21 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,160 Speaker 1: and back and forth and that sort of thing. 22 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 4: I just up halfway. 23 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 2: I just saw this. Uh, how many crunches you should 24 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 2: be able to do at different ages? And it's a 25 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 2: like thirty one you're in your forties and twenty one 26 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 2: you're in your fifties. 27 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: And how likely should I be to fall for listicles 28 00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: at various ages? 29 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, I don't know anyway. 30 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: I was just thinking about that because I I one 31 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:17,680 Speaker 2: of the reasons I've never done any crunches is for 32 00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,920 Speaker 2: whatever reason, that's not a body part. I've been likened 33 00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 2: the one body part, like if there was a great 34 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 2: exercise for my calves. I am so embarrassed by my calves. 35 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 2: That's like, if I have to get undressed anywhere, what 36 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 2: I think everybody's staring at is my calves. 37 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,000 Speaker 4: So if I really, yes, are they get leggedday? 38 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 2: Or is that what? My calves are so skinny? I'm 39 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 2: just genetically that's just the way I'm built. I mean, 40 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 2: they are like little toothpicks. They're probably sinewy though, right somewhat. 41 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: But my ankles I have tiny bone structures, So my 42 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 2: ankles are tiny like a pencil. And then it goes 43 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 2: up there to the knee and you're like a racehorse 44 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: or chicken. I used to lift weights with this big chicken. 45 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 2: Yeah all right, right, or that's what a friend of 46 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 2: mine used to say, are those your legs or are 47 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 2: you writing a chicken? And then another guy used to 48 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 2: lift weights with these are the big football star. Dude said, Dude, 49 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,320 Speaker 2: we got to do something about those ankles. 50 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: Wow, I don't know how much you can build up angle. 51 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 2: Well, right, you can't do anything about your ankles. Your 52 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 2: ankles or your ankles. 53 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 4: There are few things that hurt more than your calves 54 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 4: being sore after like really working them out. It makes 55 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,240 Speaker 4: walking so difficult. 56 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 2: But I've been I've been in the gym like almost 57 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:33,840 Speaker 2: every day for I don't know how many months now 58 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 2: a lot, and and it's it's been good for me, 59 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:39,119 Speaker 2: but I don't do anything for my calves, and it's 60 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,560 Speaker 2: so and it's becoming more noticeable, not less. 61 00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 4: So. 62 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 2: The rest of my body has like you know, improved, 63 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: but I still look like I'm are you writing a chicken? 64 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,400 Speaker 2: It's not like an important thing in my life, but 65 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 2: I just look at and I wish there was something 66 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,480 Speaker 2: similar to crunches that they've really developed that they think, man, 67 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: this really targets your calves and mandous results. 68 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,120 Speaker 1: Well, you could just you know, you stand flat footed, 69 00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,960 Speaker 1: then raise up on your toes, hold it for two 70 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,120 Speaker 1: three seconds and do that. 71 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 2: Thirty A lot of those, and I've never seen anything 72 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: ever happen. 73 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 1: What could be just you're not built to that's having 74 00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: been moderately overweight my entire life. 75 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 3: I have very beautifully developed calves. 76 00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,079 Speaker 1: You ever, you know, you see a big fat guy 77 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 1: on the street, if he moves around a lot, he's 78 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:26,120 Speaker 1: not a sedentary fat guy. He's gonna have massive calves 79 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: from one of the few benefits of being overweight. 80 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 2: Because you're exercising them just by moving around. 81 00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 3: You're lifting weights. 82 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 4: I like what my coach said to me the other day. 83 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 4: I work out for everyone else's safety because you get 84 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 4: you get all the aggression out, and then you can 85 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,520 Speaker 4: go about your day. 86 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 3: Oh there you go. Yeah. 87 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 1: Final note before we get into the gist of the 88 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 1: podcast today. I just have a very tight schedule today 89 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: and I was texting my beloved bride, do you have 90 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: time to make me a ham sandwich? But inexplicably I typed, 91 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: do you have time to making me a man sandwich? 92 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:04,000 Speaker 1: And I realized just before they sent it, I don't 93 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: even know what that would be. 94 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 3: But it doesn't sound. 95 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 2: Good, and it's not the way to introduce it through 96 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: text unless you do it regularly. And let's this is something. 97 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 2: Maybe that's it? Okay, so you and make man sandwiches 98 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:17,919 Speaker 2: on a regular basis. So it was pickups, and you 99 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 2: know that's what we call it was an odd for 100 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 2: you gardener down the street. It wasn't odd for you 101 00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: to say you have time for man sandwich today. The 102 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:27,479 Speaker 2: gardeners here. 103 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh boy, glad I did not hit send. 104 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: Where were we are? Speaking of smartphones? Johanna Stern, who 105 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 1: writes the tech column for The Wall Street Journal, an 106 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: American made iPhone just expensive or completely impossible? 107 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 3: And you know, I'm kind of curious. 108 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 1: About that question, and it might be something we all 109 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:55,480 Speaker 1: find out at some like soon, but I just I'm 110 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:58,920 Speaker 1: more interested just in what it takes to assemble something 111 00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: like a smart. 112 00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 2: But on that topic, I keep seeing these memes of 113 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,080 Speaker 2: or comments about, so this is what we want Americans, 114 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 2: you know, sewing shoes together or tuning, turning tiny screws 115 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 2: and iPhones. 116 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 117 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 2: Wait, when do we become this precious about jobs? 118 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 3: Yeah? 119 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 2: I lifted up bales of hay every single day first 120 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 2: four years because it was a great job and I 121 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 2: made money, and I bought a motorcycle in high school 122 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 2: and everything I did it willingly. There are people that 123 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 2: would turn screws and iPhones willing it's not your dream 124 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 2: job or you want to end up in life. But 125 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 2: if it's a job that pays enough to do, why 126 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 2: why you decided that that's I don't know, I don't 127 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,600 Speaker 2: I don't get that angle of attack on this whole 128 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 2: tearf thing. 129 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 1: As that young man who we talked about, who was 130 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: a Navy seal, Harvard doctor and astronaut, said there's no 131 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: job that you're better than. I'll go with his attitude. 132 00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: But anyway, mm, I find some of this stuff really interesting, 133 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: you know, and not to get to terrify on you 134 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: on the podcast, but so Commerce secretary who told CBS 135 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: has faced the nation it's. 136 00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 3: Going to be automated. 137 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: We're going to make the iPhones in the country, and 138 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: they point out, except the iPhones contain a patchwork of 139 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: sophisticated parts sourced from many countries and put together primarily 140 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: in China, where electronics manufacturing has been perfected over a generation. 141 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 1: America doesn't have facilities that resemble Chinese ones, nor does 142 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: it have skilled manpower to assemble iPhones at that scale. 143 00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how long it would take to pick 144 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 1: up those skills Honestly. 145 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen the inside of an iPhone. 146 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: Oddly enough, so, she. 147 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 1: Writes, we assembled a panel of manufacturing and tech experts 148 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: to find out how hard it would be for Apple 149 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: to bring iPhone production to the US. The short answer, 150 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 1: it's easier to teach a bald eagle to use a screwdriver. 151 00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:55,159 Speaker 1: They unanimously agree, it's very difficult. They have talents, jack 152 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,040 Speaker 1: and no thumbs. Building the full stack of iPhone com 153 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: opponents and assembling in in the US impossible. Shifting some 154 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 1: manufacturing here not totally insane. So here's what it would 155 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,120 Speaker 1: take to build at least part of it. 156 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 3: In the land of the free. 157 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: There are parts from over forty different countries inside a 158 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 1: single iPhone. 159 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: And that would be the free market of building iPhones 160 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: at work. That each part is, where's the cheapest way, 161 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,320 Speaker 2: cheapest slash fastest we can get this part to us? 162 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the most complex and specialized components come from 163 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: about a half a dozen different countries. According to this 164 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: Duke University professor who spent decades studying global manufacturing. Right now, 165 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: many of those parts, the sophisticated ones are made in 166 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: or near China, Taiwan, South Korean Japan, which benefit from 167 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: being very close together. The only realistic path to US 168 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: iPhone assembly is to reconstruct its supply chain by shifting 169 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 1: some of its key component manufacturing to the broader North 170 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: American region Mexico, Canada, maybe even western Europe, because we're 171 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 1: pretty clear to them. If a US assembly operation were 172 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: to start in the next three to five years, however, 173 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: it would depend on parts from Asia for at least 174 00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 1: that three to five years. And they're looking at the 175 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: sum of an iPhone's parts and it's costs, and yeah, 176 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: memory is made in the US, that's the only thing. 177 00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: Does this agree with? 178 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: Other? 179 00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 2: Apple said this, and then another news story said the 180 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 2: iPhone would cost thirty five hundred bucks if you made 181 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 2: even some of it in the United States. Uh, yeah, 182 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 2: I'd be a pre expensive dang phone. Yes, Michael, Yeah, 183 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:40,880 Speaker 2: this go ahead, Michael. 184 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 5: I was just thinking, what about cheaper components. You know, 185 00:08:42,840 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 5: they got the fancy glass on it suddenly becomes really 186 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 5: plastic and. 187 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 2: It wouldn't be the iPhone if they started doing cheaper stuff, 188 00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: no doubt. 189 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, And again, this isn't about scaring into anybody into 190 00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 1: supporting Trump or being against him or anything. I just 191 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: thought it was interesting describing the realities of the global 192 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:04,079 Speaker 1: assembly of electronics. And they mentioned that when Apple began 193 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: building the MacPro desktop in the US, one of the 194 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: first roadblocks was sourcing enough parts, including screws close to 195 00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: home screws and yeah, yeah, the little screws that hold 196 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: the thing together. 197 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 3: They're made in Asia. 198 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 4: That seems like something we should surely. 199 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 2: We can make those. Well, of course we can. 200 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and instead of being ten dollars a gross, they'd 201 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: be one hundred dollars of gross. Times the dozens and 202 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,560 Speaker 1: dozens and dozens of components in an iPhone. That's the problem, 203 00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,200 Speaker 1: these little elements in assembling the thing. 204 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 3: They would all go. 205 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 1: Up, and it would take a while to build a 206 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: plant that built those screws to those specifications. It's not impossible, 207 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 1: it's just very time consuming and expensive. Even if funding 208 00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: were no object, this expert estimates it would take three 209 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 1: to five years to build out the scale and qual 210 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,920 Speaker 1: required for us to join hands in a big American 211 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 1: manufacturing kumbaya. 212 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 2: I'm not going to make a man sandwich with you. 213 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 2: Your calves are too small otherwise at all in. 214 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, uh, Then they talk about the severe labor 215 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 1: shortage that we talked about the other day. Fox Khan, 216 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 1: which assembles iPhones, has said it employs three hundred thousand 217 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 1: workers in Jungxhu, China, known as iPhone City. Was that 218 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 1: three hundred thousand? Is that where the least? 219 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 2: The rumors were that they had like putting nets outside 220 00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:39,199 Speaker 2: the windows because so many people were jumping out the 221 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 2: window to kill themselves'ck. 222 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,079 Speaker 1: The nets were just to keep people the people got 223 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:49,560 Speaker 1: past our suicide guards. 224 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 3: That wasn't a lot of people. 225 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: Hiring is one of the biggest problems facing existing American manufacturers. 226 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: Current manufacturers can't fill their job. What are you gonna 227 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 1: do about that? Wise guy? Huh kick him off welfare. 228 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 2: So if if there's anybody listening who had skinny calves 229 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 2: and managed to come up with an exercise that actually 230 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 2: did anything about it. 231 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,160 Speaker 3: Oh my god, with the calves. 232 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: Have you heard of the internet? 233 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,960 Speaker 2: How about uh uh? Well, I want actual real world experience. 234 00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,760 Speaker 2: The internet is full of crap. Have you used the 235 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 2: internet recently? 236 00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 4: So many And if you go to the gym every day, 237 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 4: ask somebody at the gym. 238 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 2: That's gonna like, for a second, I'm not talking to 239 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 2: a human being. I'm not talking to a human being 240 00:11:41,920 --> 00:11:42,319 Speaker 2: in person. 241 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 4: That's a filler. 242 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 2: But yeah, we have fillers. The implants is a thing 243 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 2: I couldn't do that. 244 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 4: They could do that. 245 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 2: The problem is one of the problems is because my 246 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 2: ankles are so skinny. There's nothing I can do about that. 247 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 2: There's nothing you can do about the size of your bone, 248 00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,560 Speaker 2: of your ankle or your wrists. It's just what it 249 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 2: is in adulthood. Even if what filler filler? Oh oh oh, 250 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 2: that was my last tread of respect for you. If 251 00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 2: I got calf filler. Yeah, no kidding, Yeah, that'd be 252 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: too much. 253 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 4: The better figure it out soon because summers around the 254 00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 4: corner you have to. 255 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:22,720 Speaker 2: Wear short No, I am not. I have not worn 256 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,959 Speaker 2: shorts in thirty years, so I will be fine. Well, why, 257 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:26,680 Speaker 2: said Jack? 258 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:27,440 Speaker 3: Tell Katie? 259 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 2: Why? 260 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 3: Why? 261 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 2: Because I'm a grown up, grown man. 262 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 4: Okay, what's your actual answer for not working? 263 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:33,960 Speaker 2: That's my actual answer? 264 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 4: You're kidding me, it is. 265 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 2: Would you like me to forward the New York Times 266 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 2: article that agrees with me that grown men should not 267 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 2: wear shorts? 268 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: I wear long pants only under protest or for formal occasions. 269 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:46,400 Speaker 3: Uh. 270 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: Just one more final note on the on the iPhone thing, 271 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 1: because I think somebody probably finds it as interesting as 272 00:12:54,559 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 1: your calves. Tim Cook told Fortune, but the incentive to 273 00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: build in China wasn't really cheap labor. Of course he 274 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: would say that. 275 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:04,440 Speaker 3: Wouldn't he. 276 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course he would. 277 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 1: I think both things are true. The products we do 278 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: require really advanced tooling. That's the sophisticated iPhone making equipment. 279 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,280 Speaker 1: In the US, you could have a meeting of tooling engineers, 280 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure we could fill the room. In China, 281 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,240 Speaker 1: you could fill multiple football fields. 282 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 2: Wow, that's troubling because. 283 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 1: They crank out all the specialized engineers. It's such enormous numbers. 284 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 2: Well, that's what Trump's trying to change, though, He's trying 285 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 2: to make it so we would have more of those 286 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:36,640 Speaker 2: kind of people. Take a long time. 287 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: The one thing he needs to do, and he's trying 288 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 1: is crush the woke educational complex. Let's get back to 289 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: educating kids. 290 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 3: And would that help? 291 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 2: You know? 292 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 4: Else? He can fill JACKX calves with some filler. 293 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,440 Speaker 2: I'll post a picture. I'll try to get a good picture. 294 00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:56,400 Speaker 2: You think, well, I've seen skinny cabs.
