Is that. 27 00:01:36,440 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 1: Maybe the shows those shows got tired of announcing the 28 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: engagement of the winner and is chosen one and they 29 00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,679 Speaker 1: always break up and they'd become a running joke. 30 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,240 Speaker 2: What because they've known each other for two weeks on 31 00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:58,280 Speaker 2: a television show? The concept is so crazy, but it continues, 32 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:01,200 Speaker 2: all right? Who are the family members that like to 33 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: watch it?

Everybody likes 36 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 2: that right to each their own. 37 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: I could see, you know, he'd meet somebody and really 38 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: hit it off with him, for sure, entirely possible. 39 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: On a TV. 40 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,799 Speaker 1: Idea that you're then going to get married is idiotic 41 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: and on a TV should they've abandoned that because it's 42 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: like there's all the weird stuff that's going on in. 43 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 5: Other news this coming out of the shutdown, President Trump's 44 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 5: approval on the economy in an apee pole is thirty 45 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 5: three percent. But the Treasury Secretary urges Americans worried about 46 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 5: affordability to be patient. 47 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 6: There is the inflation line. We've got that under control. 48 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 6: It's leveled out. That is going to start turning down. 49 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,800 Speaker 6: Then there's the income line. I would expect in the 50 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 6: first quarter, second quarter of next year, those two lines 51 00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 6: are going to cross, and the American people are going 52 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 6: to a feeling better. 53 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 2: Are they. I actually heard what I thought was a 54 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: pretty good story on NPR today about this. They're going 55 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: with the angle that when inflation was bad, Joe Biden 56 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,959 Speaker 2: was telling Americans that it wasn't and you could say 57 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,679 Speaker 2: all day long the economy was great. Joe Biden was 58 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 2: out there saying the economies is the best in the world, 59 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 2: and you go to the grocery store and get gas 60 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 2: and everything like that, and you'd think, holy crap. Now 61 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: you have almost exactly the same thing going on with 62 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: Donald Trump going around saying the economy is the best 63 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 2: in the world, of the best it's ever been. Man, it 64 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 2: don't get the stock market, yeah, but don't feel that 65 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 2: way when you go to the grocery store or buy anything. 66 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: Now, the White House messaging in Trump in particular been 67 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,240 Speaker 1: terrible on this issue. I mean, like almost suicidally bad. 68 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: I don't get it. 69 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 2: As we talked about yesterday, he ran on, I'm going 70 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: to lower prices, which is not really what he meant, 71 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,840 Speaker 2: but that's what he said. And people who don't know 72 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,800 Speaker 2: a lot about how inflation works thought the prices were 73 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 2: actually going to go back to what prices used to be. 74 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: But that's not the way inflation works. Right. So yeah, 75 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 2: so even if you got inflation down to two percent, 76 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,000 Speaker 2: people still be a lot of people would still be 77 00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 2: pretty unhappy because things are expensive. Like I've been saying 78 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: since the inflation thing took, I don't know how long 79 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,720 Speaker 2: it takes before you get used to new prices to 80 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 2: where it no longer shocks you. But I'm not there yet. 81 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 2: I'm not there yet. I don't know about everybody else. 82 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, not even close. 83 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,679 Speaker 1: You know, it's very much like the whole Asle solved 84 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: the Ukraine Russia thing in one day, which I realized 85 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: was her hyperbole. 86 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,559 Speaker 2: How about one month, how about one year? How about ever? 87 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,040 Speaker 1: And just making out landish promises about the economy then 88 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,600 Speaker 1: when they don't materialize, telling Americans. 89 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 2: No, you're wrong, it's great. It's just it's insane messaging. Yeah, yeah, 90 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: I was. 91 00:04:46,520 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 1: You could have come into office and say, you know, 92 00:04:48,320 --> 00:04:50,680 Speaker 1: the day of the inauguration, you could say, look, the 93 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:53,599 Speaker 1: economy super screwed up because Biden was terrible at it. 94 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:57,600 Speaker 2: True, it's probably going to take a solid year to. 95 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 1: Two years to straighten things out, but we're gonna bring 96 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: down that inflation level. We're gonna see if we can 97 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 1: even roll prices back a little bit. That's gonna be 98 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: tough because the way inflation works, but by god, we're 99 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: gonna do everything we can to make your life more affordable. 100 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,159 Speaker 1: That would have been great, and then people would have 101 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: had a little bit of patience. But between the bad 102 00:05:15,520 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: messaging and the tariff thing, it's just I'm not shocked 103 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,480 Speaker 1: his approval numbers are that low thirty percent. 104 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 2: That was his like bulletproof number that he was so 105 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,919 Speaker 2: good on all through the first term, and while he 106 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 2: was running that in immigration, he has, as we've said 107 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 2: many many times, he's got the common man, the common touch, 108 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 2: better than practically anybody who's ever run for president in 109 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:44,320 Speaker 2: the history of this country. But it is quite possible 110 00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 2: on this one and that a guy that looks at 111 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 2: the stock market to see how the economy is doing 112 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 2: doesn't get that. For everybody else who that isn't their 113 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:57,359 Speaker 2: number one concern. Every single time you go to the 114 00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,720 Speaker 2: grocery store, you're shocked. Every time if you eat out, 115 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 2: you're shocked at what it costs m shot for your 116 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 2: kids clothes whatever. Oh, yeah, to school. This is amazing, 117 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 2: And I don't know what you do about that. So 118 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 2: that's one angle I find the psychology of all this 119 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:21,240 Speaker 2: interesting because at some point we'll get used to the 120 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 2: new prices and they will no longer shock us, and 121 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,359 Speaker 2: that will just be We'll be back to regular life, 122 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 2: Like I don't know how long that takes. So that's 123 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 2: kind of an emotional thing. And it's also kind of 124 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 2: an emotional thing whether you're happy or not. It's got 125 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 2: a lot to do with comparing yourself to other people. 126 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,280 Speaker 2: And if you perceive that other people have more than you, 127 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 2: you're less happy, whereas if you perceive that other people 128 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 2: have the same as you, you're happy with the same stuff. 129 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 2: It's just human nature and interesting. Comparison is the thief 130 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:50,000 Speaker 2: of joy. Yeah, and everybody does it. Wait a second, 131 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:50,800 Speaker 2: where's my watch. 132 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 1: I try very very hard not to do it. Every 133 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:57,640 Speaker 1: time I catch myself doing it, I say, dumb, stop 134 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: it comparing yourself to other people. 135 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry to get sidetracked, but I don't 136 00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 2: know my watch on it and I never take my 137 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,520 Speaker 2: watch off. I must have taken it off in my sleep. 138 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 2: Was it when you strip searched Michaelangelo? 139 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: I know you do that before every show, just to 140 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: make sure he's not hiding any weapons, you know, prison style. 141 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: I took my watch off to strip search Michaelangelo. Well, yeah, 142 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 2: to you know. Oh oh god took him a minute, folks, 143 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 2: I got I got sidetracked. So then the other thing is, 144 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 2: because this affordability issue is going to be the issue 145 00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 2: that both parties are wrangling over, no doubt, for the 146 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 2: next year leading up to the midterms, and I don't 147 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 2: know if there is an answer from either side. The politically, 148 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: the answer is to seem like the party that cares 149 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 2: the most about it. In terms of actually doing anything 150 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 2: about it, that's a whole different question. But you got 151 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 2: to seem like the party of the complicator that cares 152 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 2: about it. Well, then let me just say, if the 153 00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:55,640 Speaker 2: Republicans lose on that point after the debacle of the 154 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 2: Biden administration and the Democratic Congress. I mean, that'd be 155 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 2: like losing a football game. You're up fifty to nothing 156 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter. 157 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: That well, I'm gonna don my armstrong and getty f 158 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 1: yaolickin party T shirt proudly on that day. 159 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: Well, if you're gonna run for president, honestly, completely honestly 160 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 2: to me, because I don't think there's that much you 161 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 2: can do about it. Had said, look, this is the 162 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 2: way inflation works. You know how a new car cost 163 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 2: two thousand dollars in nineteen sixty five and now they 164 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 2: cost forty thousand dollars. Inflation just things get more and 165 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,880 Speaker 2: more expensive over time. We had a period here where 166 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 2: inflation happened really really fast, and it's shocking to us. 167 00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: And it's gonna take years before we get used to 168 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 2: these prices or wages catch up, and there's nothing I 169 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 2: can do about it. I mean, that's the way I mean, 170 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:39,839 Speaker 2: that would have been the honest thing. 171 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, Or you could rephrase that and just say we're 172 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:48,320 Speaker 1: going to stop prices from rising anymore, from rising so quickly. 173 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: We've got to slow it down, and we have the 174 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: plan to do it. That'd be good enough, I think. 175 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 2: But he said prices will come down, and then the 176 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 2: idiotic media, much of whom I don't think understand how 177 00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,719 Speaker 2: inflation works either, talk regularly about they just haven't come 178 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 2: down yet. Well they're not going too. They're gonna stop 179 00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 2: going up so fast. Any Who, this meme is seems 180 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 2: to be back, at least on social media. I heard 181 00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,640 Speaker 2: Ben Shapiro on somebody Else's podcast the other day addressing it. 182 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 2: He got hit with the whole but look, in the fifties, 183 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 2: on a single salary, you could own a home. It 184 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 2: was based on the stat that got everybody's attention last 185 00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: week that the median first time home buyer is now 186 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 2: forty It was twenty nine nineteen eighty one, it is 187 00:09:32,559 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: now forty years old. Started there. So you used to 188 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: be able to just dad working, buy a home, live 189 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,000 Speaker 2: the American dream. And Ben Shapiro, in that he's a 190 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 2: very smart guy, sort of way broke it down the 191 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 2: way we have broken it down many times over the years. 192 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: That the combination of that was a blip in time 193 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 2: after World War Two, when the entire manufacturing sector of 194 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 2: the world disappeared and we were the only manufacturer of everything, 195 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: combined with the fact that those people were living a 196 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 2: a much less extravagant, extravagant lifestyle than everybody does now 197 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 2: tonight way, tiny houses. Ben Shapiro actually said it, and 198 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,719 Speaker 2: I think he was right. If you had to live 199 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 2: in the house your parents or grandparents lived in, depending 200 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 2: on your age, you would think this is a crap 201 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:24,160 Speaker 2: hole because it's tiny and a little run down. That's 202 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: what I grew up in, a tiny, a little rundown home, 203 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: not you know, the giant McMansion everybody thinks they ought 204 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:34,720 Speaker 2: to have. And so so from both ends, it was 205 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 2: a blip in time historically and just a completely fanciful 206 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 2: view of what life used to be. Nobody flew anywhere 207 00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:47,960 Speaker 2: back then. Nobody you drove to the local lake in 208 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 2: the summer for vacation or their grandma's house. 209 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: Sure right, coming up after a quick word from our 210 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: friends at Prize Picks, a fascinating Joe Getty revelation that's right, 211 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: can't stay with us, so good folks, Prize Picks reminding 212 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,160 Speaker 1: you Prize Picks is the best way to win cash 213 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: on the foot ball and the bassed ball this season, 214 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 1: which players are going to go off which are over hyped. 215 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 1: Make your picks in less than sixty seconds.

It's good to be right point on this, 235 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 2: just because we've talked about this a lot. The key 236 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 2: to this, though, that I haven't said yet, is we've 237 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 2: got to do away with this whole comparing life today 238 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 2: to the fifties and acting like we're getting screwed, whether 239 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 2: it's by Republicans or Democrats. It doesn't make any sense 240 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 2: in all the ways that's been laid out a bunch 241 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 2: of different times. But as long as we're going to 242 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: hang on to that, we're doomed. The comparison is the 243 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 2: thief of joy. We're comparison selves to something that one 244 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:29,240 Speaker 2: was a blip and two never really happened the way 245 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 2: it's being displayed. So our politics are going to be 246 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,080 Speaker 2: miserable until we finally come to grips with that. All right. 247 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: Two points number one, Yes, you're right, it's not just 248 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: not apples to apples or apples oranges like apples to 249 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: golden retrievers. Comparing our lifestyle right now to the nineteen 250 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 1: fifties for instance. Second fascinating Joe Getty revelation. I have 251 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: never in my life had my own room. Everybody has 252 00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 1: their own room in most modern American households. 253 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I uh. It was with my sister in our 254 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: little apartment when we were young, and then my brother 255 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 2: was born. 256 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,839 Speaker 1: We moved to a new house and I was roomed 257 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: with my brother. Then I went to college. I always 258 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: had roommates, and then I got married while I was 259 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:14,280 Speaker 1: still in college. 260 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 2: I've never had my own room. It's pretty great. Yeah, 261 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 2: I'm fine. I shared a bedroom with my brother, and 262 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: it would it would have seemed crazy to make my 263 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: kids share a bedroom. It would have seemed crazy. I 264 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 2: don't know why. I mean, but that's a difference in 265 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 2: lifestyle right there. Of course, everybody needs to have their 266 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 2: own room. No, that was the exact opposite. When I 267 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,000 Speaker 2: was a kid, and we're not one hundred and fifty 268 00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 2: years old. Everybody and I. 269 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 1: Would play nerf hoops for hours at a time, and 270 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: everybody I knew if you went over to their house 271 00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: to play, they they shared a bedroom, their brother or 272 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:49,920 Speaker 1: sister was there. 273 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 2: Everybody. So again apples to Golden nurse shavers. Come on, folks, 274 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:56,200 Speaker 2: that's a good one. Any thoughts on that textas four one, five, 275 00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 2: nine five k FDC, I think we should play for 276 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 2: you maybe next segment. What one prominent Republican House member 277 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,200 Speaker 2: said about those who aren't willing to vote to release 278 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 2: the Epstein files. He's putting pressure on his other Republican 279 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 2: House colleagues to vote yes next week on the Epstein 280 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: Transparency Act, and he brings it pretty hard. So we'll 281 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 2: get to that at some point. So this will make 282 00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 2: you all think less of me, I think less of myself. 283 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:37,000 Speaker 2: But so last night, last yesterday, I don't wash my 284 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 2: betting very often. Speaking of never having your own room, 285 00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 2: I have way too not at all speaking of you 286 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 2: saying you've never had your own room in your life, 287 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 2: I have way too often had my own room. And 288 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 2: I've had my own room now for quite some time, 289 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: and I sleep alone, and so it's just me. So 290 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 2: I don't get around washing my betting that often. So 291 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 2: I washed all my sheets, pillowcases and comforter, and I 292 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,640 Speaker 2: got them all washed and everything like. I don't dry 293 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: my comforter because I like the color of it and 294 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: I don't want the color to fade out, so I 295 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 2: don't dry it. I spread it out on the bed 296 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 2: and let it dry, which is which is what I've 297 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 2: done in the past. Okay, And if you have enough 298 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: time at waita, are you all right with that or what? 299 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 7: On top of the freshly washed sheets, getting them all 300 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 7: wet again, creating a mildewy situation. 301 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 2: Well, it didn't have long enough to dry. And when 302 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 2: I got into bed and it was way late and 303 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: I was tired, it was so wet in my bed. 304 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: My sheets are wet. The comforter's still wet, and it's 305 00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 2: freezing cold. You know just how water feels cold and 306 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,680 Speaker 2: everything like that. Okay, so it's cold and wet, and 307 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 2: I thought, I really should take off these wet sheets 308 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 2: and put on dry sheets, but I'm so tired. I'm 309 00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 2: gonna try to sleep under these on top of the 310 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 2: wet sheets, under a wet comforter. Wow, even though it's 311 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 2: freezing here on Admirald Birds expedition and you know you're 312 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: you're hoping to survive.

In the middle of 315 00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: the night, oh, without a doubt. And it just that, 316 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 2: And I just kept laying there. I was like so 317 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 2: cold and so uncomfortable, and you know, wet and cold 318 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 2: is like among the most unpleasant feelings a human being. Cannamp. 319 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, your brain is trying to tell you something. 320 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,440 Speaker 1: What are you trying to die.

That's who I was, Like, Oh, 331 00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 2: it was horrible, and I just I kept thinking, you 332 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:07,439 Speaker 2: should really just get up and get some dry sheets, 333 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 2: or move to the couch or do something. But I 334 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:11,119 Speaker 2: was so tired. It just seemed like so much work. 335 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 7: It's more work for your body to try to not 336 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:18,080 Speaker 7: go into hypothermia because you're sheets are wet. 337 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,080 Speaker 2: Do you finally drift off in your sponge like atmosphere. 338 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,080 Speaker 2: I didn't fall asleep, but I woke up. You know, 339 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 2: I'm very very I'm very, very tired because I had 340 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 2: trouble sleeping, and every time I would wake up. I'd 341 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 2: love it. Oh that's right, I'm sleeping on wet sheets 342 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:35,959 Speaker 2: under a like. Oh wow, it was something incredibly unpleasant. 343 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,879 Speaker 1: That is some exciting celebrity lifestyle you're living there? 344 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,879 Speaker 2: You rolled over? Was there a giant splash? Squire? Well, 345 00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,160 Speaker 2: I couldn't really move because I had carved out one 346 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 2: warm little My body heat had kind of made it 347 00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 2: a little bit warm up, and I moved a little bit. 348 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 2: It was your amazing freezing cold. Ah yeah, yeah. So again, 349 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 2: I don't know what that says. There's probably much that 350 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 2: that says about my personality. I certainly couldn't have been 351 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 2: sharing a bed with anybody who would have thought that 352 00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,080 Speaker 2: was okay with you. We'll just lay here under the 353 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 2: on the wet sheets and be cold all night long. 354 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 2: Makes sense to me. 355 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 7: Look armstrong and getty. 356 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:15,239 Speaker 2: Despite the optics here. 357 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 8: There's just nothing connecting the president to any crime or 358 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 8: any wrongdoing. He has said he did nothing wrong. Even 359 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:24,840 Speaker 8: the victim, Virginia Guphray, said he didn't do anything wrong, 360 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 8: and so I think the issue continues to dog him politically, 361 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:30,880 Speaker 8: but legally there's no hook there for him. 362 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,880 Speaker 2: I thought that was interesting that NBC Evening News their 363 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 2: reporter on the story of all the Epstein emails that 364 00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: came out yesterday. Democrats leaked some out and then the 365 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: Republicans put out way more with the idea I think 366 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: that it would one give it more context, and two 367 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 2: just like flood the media with so many it was 368 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 2: difficult to talk about him. But the NBC Evening News 369 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:59,479 Speaker 2: even they went with there's nothing to tie Trump legally 370 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: to any thing that you know would be a problem 371 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:07,439 Speaker 2: for him, which still is the case. Well, and the 372 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,000 Speaker 2: fact that they had Congress and the White House an 373 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 2: access to all of this stuff through the DOJ for 374 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 2: a very very long time, and they would have kneecapped 375 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 2: Trump with delight if there was anything there. 376 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,720 Speaker 1: If that turns out to be a wrong, serie, please 377 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: let me know. Until then, I will let others, you know, 378 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: delve into this. 379 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:28,439 Speaker 2: So the House voted yesterday, and there are plenty of 380 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 2: Republicans voted along with Democrats to move forward with what 381 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,399 Speaker 2: Mike Johnson, the Speaker of the House, is now calling 382 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 2: the Epstein Transparency Act, and he said today they're going 383 00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:39,280 Speaker 2: to vote on it next week. So there's gonna be 384 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: a full House vote on that, and then everything will 385 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 2: come out, and then you got a mix of Republicans Democrats, 386 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 2: including Maggie, Republicans who want it, but Trump does not. 387 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: Trump is pressuring Republicans to vote against this. So that's 388 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: that on some of the emails it came out yesterday, 389 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,320 Speaker 2: some of the ones that are getting the most talk. 390 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:59,880 Speaker 2: In a twenty eleven email to Maxwell the Chick that's 391 00:19:59,880 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 2: in prison, Epstein referred to Trump as the dog that 392 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 2: hasn't barked, writing that he said a victim. They had 393 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 2: the Democrat's release of it, just said victim because they 394 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,320 Speaker 2: didn't want the name out. The Republicans later then put 395 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 2: out the fact that it's that I can't pronounce her name. Jeffrey, 396 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,200 Speaker 2: a Virginia girl that killed herself. Yeah recently it was her, 397 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 2: but anyway, Epstein wrote that Virginia had spent hours at 398 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 2: my house with Trump, but Trump's never once been mentioned 399 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:32,600 Speaker 2: in these investigations. Okay, hours with in the same house, 400 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 2: the talking what well, and she said Trump never did 401 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 2: anything inappropriate. And I would like to think at this 402 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 2: point I have earned a little credibility as neither having 403 00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,639 Speaker 2: Trump derangement syndrome nor being some sort of always Trump 404 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: honk I call him as I see him. He makes 405 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:54,320 Speaker 2: me insane at least half the time. There's nothing here. Yeah, 406 00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 2: maybe the most interesting one to me and see that 407 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: was on Claude. Let me go to what GPT dug 408 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 2: up for me was the fact that emails showing Epstein 409 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:13,160 Speaker 2: offering to help Russia understand Trump. Yes, with one message 410 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 2: quoted Shirkin, that was the Russian guy he was working with. 411 00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 2: Was great. He understood Trump after our conversations. It's not complex. 412 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 2: So he was working with some Russians to help them 413 00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:26,919 Speaker 2: understand Trump. Why you helping an enemy of the United 414 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: States understand Donald Trump? Because you understand Donald Trump? 415 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 1: Gee, because you're a sociopathic monster and you'll just do 416 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 1: whatever it brings you money or sex. 417 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, if the NBC Evening News is willing 418 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 2: to just state it plainly, there's nothing tying him legally 419 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: to any of Epstein's problems after yesterday's email, don't I 420 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 2: don't know where this is going. 421 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 1: If you can just separate yourself from the partisanship or 422 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,159 Speaker 1: rooting or whatever you want to say and look at 423 00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,720 Speaker 1: this as kind of a political scientist, it's such an 424 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: interesting and weird coalition of people demanding quote unquote transparency, 425 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:09,880 Speaker 1: from the Pizzagate paranoid conspiracy crowd to the Democrats who 426 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 1: just want to smear Trump, to Republican congress people who 427 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 1: are like I think, who is the great philosopher? Who 428 00:22:17,560 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 1: the bargain was that? 429 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 2: Look, if you espouse belief in God and you live 430 00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,400 Speaker 2: a godly life, if there is a God, you're saved. 431 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 2: If there's not, well, what the heck doesn't really matter, 432 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 2: Whereas if you go the other side, if there's no God, 433 00:22:35,560 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 2: it doesn't matter. But if there is a God, you're screwed. 434 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: So you know, you might as well live a godly life. 435 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: I think a lot of Republicans are, at least a 436 00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: handful of them are making that bargain. Look, people who 437 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 1: don't care about the Epstein thing, the Joe Getty coalition, 438 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:54,439 Speaker 1: who thinks there's nothing there. They won't penalize me for 439 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,159 Speaker 1: demanding the release of the papers. They're worried about other stuff. 440 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 1: They just roll their eyes. But there's no loss in 441 00:23:01,359 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: me for pretending that I'm fighting bravely against this cabal 442 00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: of sex crazed pizza proprietors or whatever the hell's shape 443 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: it's taking these days so they get to credit and 444 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: there's no real harm. 445 00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 2: Well, Trump's pressure and people really really hard to vote 446 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,639 Speaker 2: no on this thing. It's the first bipartisan anything I 447 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:23,040 Speaker 2: can remember in like a decade. Yeah, but weirdly, weirdly 448 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 2: bip So let's hear from Representative Thomas Massey. He's a Republican, 449 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 2: he's on one of the big committees around this, and 450 00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 2: he's trying to convince Republicans that they need to vote 451 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: for it, even though Trump wants them to vote against it. 452 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 4: I've already had a couple of Republicans tell my office 453 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,600 Speaker 4: privately that they're going to vote for it, and I 454 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 4: think that could snowball to mean, you know, the deal 455 00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 4: for Republicans on this vote is that Trump will protect 456 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:52,680 Speaker 4: you if you vote the wrong way. In other words, 457 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,640 Speaker 4: if you vote to cover up for pedophiles, you've got 458 00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 4: cover in a Republican primary. But I would remind my 459 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 4: colleagues that vote is going to be on your record 460 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,560 Speaker 4: for longer than Trump is going to be president. And 461 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 4: what are you going to do in twenty twenty eight 462 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:10,000 Speaker 4: and twenty thirty when you're in a debate either with 463 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,800 Speaker 4: a Republican or a Democrat and they say, how can 464 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 4: we trust you? You cover it up for a pedophile 465 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 4: back in you know, twenty twenty five. 466 00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,879 Speaker 2: That's pretty strong. So he's presenting it as well, if 467 00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 2: you vote no, you're covering up for a pedophile. That's 468 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: a pretty strong statement. Yeah, and then you got to 469 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 2: come out and say no, I don't think I I'm 470 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 2: trying to cover up for a pedophile. I just don't 471 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 2: think there's any more to the story. But that's a 472 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 2: tough one. Yeah, I would agree. 473 00:24:41,320 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 1: But the problem with this, and the real one of 474 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: the reasons I get so frustrated with it, is as 475 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:49,760 Speaker 1: long as there is a single victims name redacted, if 476 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 1: every chapter, verse, page, and book, every file of this 477 00:24:55,359 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 1: is released completely, but there's one redacted victim's name, that 478 00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:02,639 Speaker 1: will be enough to fuel the conspiracy theories for the 479 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 1: rest of my life. 480 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 2: Pascal is the philosopher. Pascal's wager is what you were 481 00:25:08,160 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 2: talking is popped into my head. Pascal's wager on the 482 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,240 Speaker 2: whole idea of you might as well pretend there's a god, 483 00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,280 Speaker 2: because if you turn out you know you're right, you're good. 484 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: If you're wrong, what's the harm? And so you're thinking 485 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 2: that with that this vote here, it's certainly going to pass. 486 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 2: There will be enough Republicans and practically all the Democrats 487 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 2: vote for it next week, and so it will pass. 488 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:31,120 Speaker 2: And more of this I almost trumped in his well 489 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,239 Speaker 2: more this s is going to come out, and then 490 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 2: I hope it's like, Okay, we didn't find anything more 491 00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 2: juicy than Epstein saying he knew there were girls there. Okay, 492 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 2: that doesn't say anything.

I a believe in God, so I 530 00:27:51,440 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 2: don't have to pretend anything. But Christopher Hitchens, the atheist 531 00:27:56,040 --> 00:28:01,439 Speaker 2: who would go around the world debating various Christian thinkers 532 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 2: and try to convince them that they're wrong. His argument, 533 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,760 Speaker 2: I always thought was pretty good on the Pascal wager. 534 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: So you believe in a God that you could pretend 535 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:14,199 Speaker 2: to believe in and he wouldn't know that, or he 536 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 2: would know that, and he'd be okay with the fact 537 00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 2: that you pretended the whole time, and then at the 538 00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:22,400 Speaker 2: end on the judgment and say, well that's good enough. Yeah. 539 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 1: I don't the word pretend, I think is prejudicial. I've 540 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 1: I used the term live a godly life, which may 541 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 1: have been prejudicial. On the other side, I don't speak French, 542 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 1: so I don't know the original, you know, actual statement 543 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: that Pescal made. 544 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I believe the idea is not just live a 545 00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,479 Speaker 2: godly life, it's a believe in God. You might as 546 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 2: well believe in God, right, Yeah, Yeah, I think so too. Yeah, 547 00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,200 Speaker 2: that was my understanding. But if you're faking it just 548 00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 2: in case it is God, well exactly, And Christopher Hitchin's 549 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 2: argument was God would know that that you were just 550 00:28:57,080 --> 00:29:00,040 Speaker 2: like playing the odds, like you think, you know, you 551 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 2: got a seventy five percent chance here, so you might 552 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: as well go this direction like you're betting on a 553 00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 2: football game. Yeah, yeah, you know, I believe what I believe. 554 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 2: It's funny. 555 00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:13,280 Speaker 1: I have a great humbleness about this topic as people, 556 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: you know, struggle with this sort of thing. I feel 557 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: like I've walked up to a nuclear reactor that's going wrong, 558 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 1: and the technicians turn to me and say, what should 559 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 1: we do. 560 00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 2: I'm like, you're asking the wrong guy. You got to 561 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 2: figure that out. My son, who my youngest, who calls 562 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: himself an atheist currently, but he goes back and forth. 563 00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 2: I said, well, about two thirds of the time I 564 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 2: believe this, and about the third of the time I don't, 565 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 2: which is where I am. The particulars of it. I'm 566 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 2: not going to get into the particulars, but yeah, and 567 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: you know it's lots of people are that way. Oh 568 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: my god. 569 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's struggling with cited in both the Old and 570 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: New Testaments. 571 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 2: Including and I always bring this up because I think 572 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 2: it was really interesting after Mother Teresa died, when they 573 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 2: were going through her letters and everything like that, and 574 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,479 Speaker 2: they were released in book four. She had many letters 575 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:04,760 Speaker 2: in there throughout her life where she doubted the existence 576 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 2: of God and she'd say things like I felt for 577 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,600 Speaker 2: a fraud. I can't believe I've been living this life 578 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 2: and God doesn't exist. I mean, so she if she's 579 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,320 Speaker 2: going to go through those periods of time where she 580 00:30:14,320 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 2: doesn't buy at all, well, then you know, give yourself 581 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: a little slack. Oh, I agree completely one way or 582 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 2: the other. Of course, back to Christopher Higgins, he wrote 583 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 2: a book about the evil of Mother Teresa and how 584 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 2: she should be thrown in prison for her evil or 585 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 2: something like that. That's a different topic. 586 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:33,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh, And of course you know he was 587 00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 1: a brilliant, brilliant man and unbelievably gifted writer, but smoked 588 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: cigarettes and died of lung cancer far far before his time, 589 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 1: which still actually angers me because I so would like 590 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 1: to hear his opinion on various things that are happening, 591 00:30:47,040 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 1: you know. 592 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,560 Speaker 2: He Yeah, I would love to too. He would have 593 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,840 Speaker 2: absolutely destroyed woke. Oh, he would have been such a 594 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,160 Speaker 2: valuable soldier against that. But he smoked. 595 00:30:57,240 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 1: On the other hand, young women are getting lung cancer 596 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 1: right now at alarming rates. Young women have never smoked. 597 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,440 Speaker 1: And it's raydon in various parts of the country where 598 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: there's a great deal of raydon in the soil. It's 599 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,480 Speaker 1: a radioactive element. And I was just reading that the 600 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: other day. Get a raid on detector, folks, or you know, 601 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 1: bang up a little raydon map of the United States. 602 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 2: I found it so interesting. I don't know, I think 603 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 2: about that. I know I have a radon detector because 604 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: the city makes me, but I didn't know it's given 605 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 2: girls lung cancer. Yeah, yeah, I was shocked. Yeah, frightening 606 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:35,120 Speaker 2: numbers of young women, although they're generally able to catch 607 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 2: it in time because it's so weird that young women 608 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 2: have that sort of symptom and so they report it early. 609 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 2: But I don't have it in front of me. But anyway, 610 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 2: by the way, in a very non scientific polling of 611 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 2: you whether or not you're interested in the Epstein thing, 612 00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:52,520 Speaker 2: I'd say it's running about nine to one. No, you're 613 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 2: not interested. With some very aggressive language about me and 614 00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: the fact that I'm talking about it at all, but 615 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,760 Speaker 2: if you are, if you are like into it or whatever, 616 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 2: give us a text. I'd like to hear what that's 617 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 2: all about. I think most of you don't care. I 618 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: guess not a huge turnout via email, but it is. 619 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:17,400 Speaker 2: It's the first thing. It's the first thing Congress did 620 00:32:18,160 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 2: after they came back from the longest shutdown in our history. 621 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: And it's the first big bill they're going to vote on. 622 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,360 Speaker 1: Next week, and that will be cited by historians of 623 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 1: the future as the moment the United States of America 624 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 1: began to die. 625 00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 2: Maybe you might be right if you have any thoughts 626 00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 2: on that text line four one FIFTC. 627 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 9: The International Olympic Committee announced it will ban biological mails 628 00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 9: from competing in women's Olympic sports.

You try to get as 674 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:31,800 Speaker 2: close as you can, like he's he's clipped his pedal 675 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 2: on telephone poles before. You try to get as close 676 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,040 Speaker 2: as you can before you turn on your wheelie. 677 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:41,799 Speaker 1: So this nineteen year old Fronischman did a wheelie for 678 00:35:42,080 --> 00:35:45,520 Speaker 1: ninety three miles six and a half hours. 679 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 2: That's incredible.
