One nutjob who may or may not 12 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 1: have had the messed up brain from football, but one 13 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: nuts goes to the building where the NFL is headquartered 14 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 1: and they're going to beef up security significantly at stadiums 15 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:09,399 Speaker 1: all around the country for. 16 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:13,000 Speaker 3: The whole season and practice facilities in front offices. 17 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: That's a nuts reaction. 18 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 3: Yes, I would like to talk to a team of 19 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 3: anthropologists about it, because I think there's something very primal 20 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: about it, mixed with liability, mixed with something something the 21 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,959 Speaker 3: modern age. Because you're right, there's absolutely zero evidence that 22 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 3: it's an ongoing threat of any sort. In fact, it's 23 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: the exception that makes it clear that, oh, that's right. 24 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 3: Nobody in the last seventy five years has thought, you know, 25 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: what I need to do is take a shot at 26 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 3: the NFL for some grievance or another. It's the exception 27 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:56,640 Speaker 3: that proves the rule is that confusing saying goes, that's wild. 28 00:01:56,440 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: That's true. I didn't know what that clip was. I'm 29 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: glad we played it because that's crazy. That's crazy. 30 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: I would My only counter argument, and it's not a 31 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:05,920 Speaker 3: good one. 32 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: Is that. 33 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: There are absolutely a shocking number of people who think 34 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 3: it is appropriate for them to address their grievance by 35 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: shooting a bunch of people. And the NFL has a 36 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 3: high profile. But I would say in that regard, then okay, 37 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 3: the NBA, Major League Baseball, and the Pro Golf Tour, 38 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 3: and well not the w NBA. They mostly have sex 39 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,960 Speaker 3: toys being thrown thrown on the floor. But uh, and 40 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: and you know a dozen other things that don't leap 41 00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,000 Speaker 3: to mind immediately, but just big high profile endeavors of 42 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,640 Speaker 3: whatever sort general motors I don't know. 43 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 1: Now, if you get heard at a WNBA game, a 44 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 1: fake dingis is gonna blindside you in You're right? Oh god, 45 00:02:55,480 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: what was that? Lose ear or something? Seems unlikely? So 46 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:06,639 Speaker 1: do you want serious or not serious? Next? What would 47 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 1: be the best flow? Probably serious? Then not serious? 48 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:12,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well go ahead, and then I've got a philosophical 49 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,080 Speaker 3: topic I'd like to bring up later in the show. 50 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,079 Speaker 1: So I just wanted to pay this off. I've heard 51 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,720 Speaker 1: this a couple of places, but we haven't mentioned has 52 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:18,079 Speaker 1: to do. 53 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 3: With feeding your pet to a lion anyway, begs you. 54 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,519 Speaker 1: I've heard this a couple of places, but not here, 55 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: and I just want to make sure you all heard it. 56 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,840 Speaker 1: The whole supposed famine that's going on in Gaza. Oh yeah, 57 00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,640 Speaker 1: there's been a fair amount of decent pushback on that, 58 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 1: not from mainstream media. But why don't you see lots 59 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 1: of Well, first of all, Jonah Goldberg has written several 60 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,119 Speaker 1: pieces about this. He wrote one in the La Times 61 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: the other day about famine is a plural word, as in, 62 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 1: the whole point of a famine is there are lots 63 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,920 Speaker 1: and lots and lots of people starving. If there are 64 00:03:57,080 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: lots and lots and lots of people starving, why are 65 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 1: you just showing the one kid in like every publication 66 00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: the same weekend or only kids?

I mean, what is going on there? 68 00:04:11,160 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: So that's that's kind of weird too. And then just 69 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 1: specifically on that one kid, which you probably all know 70 00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,200 Speaker 1: the story, horrific looking scene. Turns out the kids got 71 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,920 Speaker 1: a number of health issues and most likely looked like 72 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: that before the Gaza invasion. The poor kid. The New 73 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: York Times posted out on the front page and on 74 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: their Twitter account to fifty five million followers to try 75 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 1: to show, look, there's this look look at this bony 76 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:49,600 Speaker 1: bent child starved by the Israelis.

Their correction. 78 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: They ran a correction, but not on the same Twitter 79 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: feed with fifty five million and followers.

She's not 199 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:21,160 Speaker 3: gonna spray pepper, spray ice and grab his wristwatch. She 200 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 3: has a somewhat different approach to the problem. We worked 201 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 3: with a guy and he surely is not alive. He's 202 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,319 Speaker 3: had to have died by a heart attack by now. 203 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 3: We worked with the guy at radio station years ago 204 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 3: as a client. Had a fair amount of money and 205 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 3: older fact rich guy, and hung out with him quite 206 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 3: a bit. We had fun, we drank together. 207 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: But anyway, he had some stripper chick that he would 208 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: meet at a hotel and he told me, he said 209 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 1: they'd just get together and like watch TV and have pizza. 210 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 1: They didn't do anything, but he bought her stuff all 211 00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: the time. That was his relationship. I don't know, I don't. 212 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,679 Speaker 4: And that always just kind of makes me sad because 213 00:13:02,679 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 4: it's like you're blatantly being news used, you know it. 214 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 1: I don't know that you said for him or for 215 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 1: her for him, but so allegedly, and I believe I 216 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: believe his account to your account if he was. 217 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, that that that's sad though. 218 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 1: That he just wants to be in a room with 219 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: an attractive un doesn't that bummy out a little? 220 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,640 Speaker 3: Well, it's it's like being in a room with a 221 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:32,520 Speaker 3: delicious pepperoni pizza. To me, it's worse than not being 222 00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: in a room with the pizza. 223 00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:38,680 Speaker 1: Pizza. I can't eat it unless you're paid for, unless 224 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 1: you're a really odd duck. A pizza does not feed 225 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:45,200 Speaker 1: your ego. It does feed your ego squestion of desire 226 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: and paying off the desire. It's a perfect metaphor. You 227 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: have a delicious one, you have the desire to be 228 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,480 Speaker 1: wanted by an attractive young woman. I'm guessing here, I 229 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: don't get it either. I'm just guessing that that fills 230 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: some need where the pizza doesn't do anything for your ego. 231 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 3: I have no need to be desired by a pizza. 232 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 1: You're right, I'm the sort of guy that can, you know, 233 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 1: hang around a pizza like this. I would also but 234 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:10,199 Speaker 1: it's you. But you're delusional because it's utterly. 235 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 3: Clear from the relationships she doesn't desire you at all. 236 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,040 Speaker 3: Back to the perfection of my pizza metaphor, I please, 237 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:17,959 Speaker 3: I rest my case. 238 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: It's weird, stay here. 239 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:21,520 Speaker 3: Armstrong. 240 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:26,680 Speaker 5: CNN's Casey Hunt is under fire for asking if wheelchair 241 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 5: bound Texas Governor Greg. 242 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: Abbott had a leg to stand on. 243 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 5: Hant says it was a poor choice of words, and 244 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 5: she's really sorry. 245 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 3: It's not funny, wow making fun of the CNN anchor 246 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 3: ats there, Greg Guttfeldt happen to be reading that China 247 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: out ship builds us whatever it is, eighteen to one 248 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 3: or something like that, is investing heavily in building a 249 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 3: supermodern navy, and our shipbuilding capabilities have withered to practically nothing. 250 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: God, all this is going to catch up with us 251 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,520 Speaker 1: at some point, isn't it.

The Chinese state newspaper Global Time celebrated that 255 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 3: the country's box office hit a single day record for 256 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 3: movies box office returns for a summer day, earning nine 257 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 3: hundred and seventy two million dollars on a single day. 258 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 3: Whoa on the. 259 00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: Back of almost a billion dollars in one day. 260 00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 3: Yes, on the back of three different patriotic war propaganda 261 00:15:55,240 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 3: films demonizing the Japanese, which is interesting because freak their 262 00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 3: propaganda war films demonized the United States. But it's usually 263 00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 3: China or the United States. And as they increasingly close 264 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 3: off their market to Hollywood films and are pushing very 265 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 3: hard to get more you know, patriotic blockbusters into their theaters. 266 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: You got people. Chinese people turn it out. 267 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 3: In droves to go raw raw against the brave Chinese army, 268 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 3: defeating the evil Westerners, including Japan. 269 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 1: I don't remember where I read this many many years 270 00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: ago about the expanding, growing culture versus the receding shrinking culture. 271 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: But a culture that people are turning out to watch 272 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: their heroes fight the bad guy is gonna dominate. A 273 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,960 Speaker 1: culture that puts out movies where you're the bad guy 274 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,560 Speaker 1: and everybody else is the good guy. 275 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 3: Although having you know, gone through the entire educational system, 276 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 3: as say a twenty five year old, you don't need 277 00:17:01,920 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 3: to see a movie that makes your own country the 278 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:06,080 Speaker 3: bad guy. You're thoroughly convinced of that already. 279 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is something. 280 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to be depressing or anything, but 281 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 3: I mean it's it doesn't take a political scientist to 282 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 3: project those trend lines going forward. You know what they mean, 283 00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:19,760 Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty. 284 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,720 Speaker 6: The happiest people do four things every day. They pay 285 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 6: attention to their faith or life philosophy. They pay attention 286 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,880 Speaker 6: to their families, They cultivate their friendships, and they try 287 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 6: to serve other people through their work. Faith, family, friends, 288 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 6: and serving other people through your work. Those are those 289 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 6: are the happiness pillars. That's the happiness four oh one 290 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 6: K plan. 291 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:44,480 Speaker 1: Arthur Brooks. Yes, they left out money and that's and 292 00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,640 Speaker 1: clicks likes who likes. 293 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, they left money and likes. That was Arthur Brooks, 294 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,520 Speaker 3: who's an author and scientists. He's studied happiness and that 295 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,480 Speaker 3: sort of thing for years now. On Brett Bear's show 296 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: last night, he had a great deal more to say 297 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,360 Speaker 3: on that topic. And it goes along reasonably well with 298 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:06,280 Speaker 3: what the New Chicago Pope said du Pope to recently. 299 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 3: We're fleshing that out and we'll bring that to you 300 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 3: tomorrow probably roughly this time of day on the Armstrong 301 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,320 Speaker 3: and Getty Show. I hope you can join us then, 302 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: So I've gone through a journey Jack, a personal journey, 303 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 3: and deciding how to address this this next story. 304 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,359 Speaker 1: I found myself in the woods in midlife. That's the 305 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: beginning of Dante's Inferno. Oh really lost in the woods 306 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:31,119 Speaker 1: in midlife? 307 00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 3: Then what happens? Spoiler alert? 308 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,640 Speaker 1: Why you trying to figure out your purpose? Like you're just. 309 00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 3: Talking about Yeah? Indeed, and again more on that tomorrow. 310 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 3: It's always appropriate. So here's my personal journey. And Katie 311 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 3: I believe, brought this up as one of her headlines. 312 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 3: And Katie, please feel free to jump in. A zoo 313 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:53,960 Speaker 3: in Denmark wants to feed your pets to its predators. 314 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 3: A Danish zoo is asking owners of companion animals nearing 315 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 3: life's in to donate them uh as food for captive lynxes, lions, 316 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: and other carnivores. 317 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:07,640 Speaker 1: This is sounding like a pretty darn good idea. Why 318 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: haven't we met about this in the United States? 319 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:11,600 Speaker 3: You know what's funny is I don't know if it's 320 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 3: intentionally or unintentionally. The subhead in the head from the 321 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 3: New York Times don't make it clear whether your animal 322 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 3: is alive in this scenario or not. 323 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: Right, I was wondering about that. But we got shelters 324 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,879 Speaker 1: full of cats and zoos ful hungry lions. How we 325 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: haven't put those two things together? 326 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 4: Oh right, I'm not playing along with them. 327 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, and so my. 328 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 3: The first thing I thought, in looking this article over 329 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 3: and skimming it real quickly, was, man, this is a 330 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 3: because they make it clear that these animals would be 331 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 3: gently euthanized by trained employees, used for food by the zoos, 332 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,399 Speaker 3: predators like the ear and links, lions and tigers, et cetera. 333 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 1: Yeah for me, even I don't want to feel alive 334 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 1: stray kitten who is going to be euthanized at the shelter? 335 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,400 Speaker 1: Too long relying? But uh, why not? You know, give 336 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: a not knock it out a little bit and then 337 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:21,120 Speaker 1: give it to the line. 338 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 3: All right, well, it'll be euthanized, it'll be dead the 339 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 3: circle of life. It won't be asleep, it'll be dead. 340 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:29,480 Speaker 3: But anyway, enough, knock. 341 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: It out a little bit. You know, I won't really 342 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:31,919 Speaker 1: know what's going on. 343 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 3: Right, Give it a xanax. It'll be fine. 344 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, give it a half a ben a drill and 345 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,360 Speaker 1: put it in the lion cage. 346 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:41,199 Speaker 3: So I've got to admit I was thinking, as I 347 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 3: often do, as the the dedicated realist, that all right, 348 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 3: this is a pretty good dividing line that makes perfect 349 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 3: sense to me. 350 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 1: Of course it does. You have these animals in the zoo. 351 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:54,359 Speaker 3: People love them, they admire them, they learn about conservation, 352 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: blah blah blah. The animals are eating meat, obviously, they're 353 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 3: feeding them their natural diet, and as the zeo says, 354 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 3: this way nothing goes to waste, and we ensure natural behavior, 355 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 3: nutrition and well being for our predators because it mimics 356 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 3: the natural food chain by feeding whole prey to its predators. 357 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 3: So it is absolutely biologically zoologically not only defensible, it's ideal. 358 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 1: I'll have to do. 359 00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 3: I thought, here's a great dividing line. Can you handle 360 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:26,400 Speaker 3: that or not? Do you understand that your pet, when 361 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 3: it's gone, it's gone, and you'll be doing a good thing. 362 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 3: And then I thought about my dog, And it. 363 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: Is harder when you think about your own dog. I 364 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 1: can still do it. I'll I'll have to ask Henry 365 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,200 Speaker 1: if he'd be okay if Pugsito got eaten by a lion. 366 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:47,639 Speaker 3: Oh my do you dare ask him that not prior 367 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,120 Speaker 3: to the age of twenty thirty, and he'll be eight 368 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:50,720 Speaker 3: years old. 369 00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:53,479 Speaker 1: He'll be on a therapist's couch and say, I remember 370 00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 1: it today, Gladys, he'll say, and Gladys will play the 371 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 1: harp and he'll say. I was thirteen years old and 372 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: my dad came in and said, would it be okay 373 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 1: if we fed Pugsito to a. 374 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 3: Lion, your beloved dog companion? Good Lord, you'd be lucky 375 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 3: if he doesn't take you out anyway, Sorry, Judy. And 376 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 3: I just got done with Department Q. It's on Netflix. 377 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 3: Really good, Murder, Mystery, Misfit Cop, Conspiracy, Weirdness, What Lies Beneath? 378 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 1: Oh? 379 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 3: Really really good Emmy nomination. It's not just my opinion, 380 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 3: but Department Q really really good. Anyway. So I I 381 00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 3: was thinking about Baxy, who is my dog, my half 382 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 3: lab half Border Collie, and he's getting on in years definitely. 383 00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 3: He's thirteen now, which a dog. No, I don't I 384 00:22:49,080 --> 00:22:52,240 Speaker 3: have a mutt man it like me. He's a mutt anyway, 385 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,199 Speaker 3: and I started thinking, oh my god, that just I 386 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 3: just don't think about it, don't think about it, don't 387 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,000 Speaker 3: think about it. It's like know, when the dentist gives 388 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,399 Speaker 3: you that shot at it's fine, it doesn't hurt that 389 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 3: bad as long as you don't think about it. 390 00:23:05,680 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: I do, all right. I think it bothers me, although 391 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: I've been always been a big Once i'm dead, I 392 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: don't care what you do with me. You can put 393 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,080 Speaker 1: me in a trash bag up, but on Tuesday morning 394 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 1: when the truck comes by, because I'm dead, it's just 395 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,679 Speaker 1: my body. At that point, it doesn't mean anything. So 396 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 1: if I feel that way about me, I think I 397 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: feel that way about my dog. 398 00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've got to admit we have been of the 399 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 3: habit of Because at the VET they will helpfully for 400 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: some people go ahead and cremate your beloved departed pet 401 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,479 Speaker 3: and gift you with the ashes and an urn and 402 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,400 Speaker 3: a display of whatever.

Right again, I'm not shouting. Do they 438 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: do you? 439 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: Now? 440 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 4: Do they take it alive and then they euthanize it? 441 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,960 Speaker 4: Because I could not handle see that. So you're still 442 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 4: handing over a live animal? 443 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,960 Speaker 1: Yes, to the zoo? Yeah, I think this is now. 444 00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: They also accept chickens and your dogs and gigs. You're 445 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: a quick question, why are we at the zoo? And 446 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: where am I going? 447 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:53,560 Speaker 3: And why are you not coming with me? Oh lord, no, no, 448 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 3: I can't even contemplate. 449 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 1: It's too dark, it's too terrible. But notice what at 450 00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: the zoo? 451 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 3: So they mentioned the we've never been to the zoo before. 452 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 3: The horse will be delivered alive to the zoo where 453 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 3: it will be euthanized by a zoo keeper and a 454 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,600 Speaker 3: veterinarian and then slaughtered the zoo's website. 455 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: Or so they tell you. Right now, here's where it 456 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: gets weird. 457 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 3: The zoo also accepts chickens, rabbits, and guinea pigs during 458 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 3: weekdays between ten am and one pm, but no more 459 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 3: than four at a time. 460 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,679 Speaker 1: Oh okay, jeez, I have six.

Yeah, 465 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:48,680 Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't think this is going to 466 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: catch on a lot. I don't like the. 467 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 4: Idea of handing them over alive. I feel like, I 468 00:26:56,400 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 4: don't know, they need to euthanize them before like there. 469 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 3: I don't know how that would work out. 470 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: Rough rough So when we got in the car, I 471 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 1: thought perhaps where we were added to a church or 472 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: a hospital. This, Oh, for God's sake, stop with that. 473 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: It seems to be the lost zoo. 474 00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 3: Is anybody enjoying Jack's hilarious dog unaware that it's about 475 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:19,919 Speaker 3: to be put to death? Bit it's hilarious, it's great. 476 00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 3: Oh my god. Yeah, working with the Lenny Bruce over here. 477 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 1: You just wanted me to see the zoo once before 478 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 1: we go to the hospital. Rice, I'm just gonna interrupt. 479 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 3: Signy Flyvolme, who lives in Denmark and has visited the 480 00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:39,000 Speaker 3: zoo for the past forty years, said the social media 481 00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 3: post made her want to donate her horse. She could 482 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 3: make a difference by being used as food. She's a 483 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 3: very loved horse. 484 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:54,440 Speaker 1: That it were n'm carrie.

But so would you just 489 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,399 Speaker 1: put the whole horse horse carcass in there and let 490 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 1: the lions pull it apart? 491 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: And the particulars I don't know. I doubt they would, 492 00:28:15,200 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 3: certainly not. While the zoo is open. 493 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: Right from grade Field trip right exactly. 494 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 4: They could sell feature tickets, could be the all thing. 495 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, feeding time at the zoo is an enormous 496 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 3: attraction right now. 497 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: And what do you think they're feeding those animals that 498 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: need meat?

This is true. 501 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 3: Probably not right. Oh, I'm sorry I brought it up. 502 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, good way to go, Joel. 503 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I blamed myself because they've fed all kinds of 504 00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 3: live fish to the dolphins. 505 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: At the dolphins show we went to in Florida when 506 00:28:56,040 --> 00:29:00,160 Speaker 1: Henry got to ride the dolphins. Are they live? They 507 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: were alive? They were scuirming around. 508 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: Oh really, Uh, well, that's a good indication that they're alive, 509 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:07,200 Speaker 3: unless they're puppet fish. 510 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 1: Henry got to do the thing where he had a 511 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: dolphin on each side of and he had his hands 512 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: on their fin and they pulled it really fast through 513 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: the water. Oh that's cool. Yeah, it's a cool video. 514 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, Pettle will probably stop that soon. 515 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: It's cool. Yeah in Florida you can do that. Probably 516 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 1: not in California. Oh yeah, Okay, Well, I'm glad Joe 517 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:28,320 Speaker 1: reads the email hit it lots of email about the 518 00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 1: whole feeding your dog to the Lion's story. 519 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it wasn't a show stopper, but it certainly slowed 520 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 3: it down. 521 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:46,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, we will finish strong next time. Paperwork for back 522 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: to school. The amount of paperwork in the modern world 523 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:54,440 Speaker 1: is insane, and almost all of it's driven by lawyers, 524 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: damn it. Uh yeah, yeah absolutely. 525 00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,520 Speaker 3: I was tempted to launch back into the Russia Ukraine thing, 526 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:03,840 Speaker 3: but I'm thinking it make corese sense to address it 527 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 3: again tomorrow. 528 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,920 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because there might be new ripples. There's apparently 529 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: Europe is feeling like, should we get involved in this? 530 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: We ought to get involved in this before Friday, so 531 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: they're running out of time. Yeah. 532 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 3: Well, I think part of the reason is it's become 533 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 3: clear what the Russian strategy is, and that is to 534 00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 3: turn the Ukraine situation into merely one aspect of a 535 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:35,360 Speaker 3: much bigger agreement and thereby get what they want out 536 00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:42,479 Speaker 3: of Ukraine. And I get why that would appeal to 537 00:30:42,720 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 3: Trump and the United States. On a purely practical level, 538 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 3: it is, as usual with Putin, an extremely astute effort 539 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 3: at manipulation. 540 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, it could be the sort of thing where, if 541 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: you're looking at it as an America first guy, you 542 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: think this is the best thing for the United States. 543 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. The great caveat to that, of course, is that 544 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 3: Putin will violate agreements. You know, he'll sign it, then 545 00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 3: while you're signing it, he'll violate it. So that takes 546 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 3: some of the fun out of hating. 547 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:22,840 Speaker 1: To includes some sort of assurance, though, like ironclad assurance 548 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 1: that he doesn't, you know, continue the war six months 549 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 1: or a year from now. And I don't see how 550 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: anything would other than troops, European troops, NATO troops would 551 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: do the trick. 552 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, there's no assurance other than a trip wire, 553 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 3: if you will. 554 00:31:42,160 --> 00:31:43,920 Speaker 1: The troops should be assurance, right, He's not going to 555 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 1: go to war with NATO troops yeah. 556 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: I was just differentiating between like a written assurance and 557 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 3: a kinetic fact that well exactly, yeah, yeah, a fact 558 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 3: on the ground that assures he won't screw around because 559 00:31:58,240 --> 00:31:58,840 Speaker 3: he can't. 560 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:07,160 Speaker 1: But well so, a couple of quick notes. 561 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: The fabulous Nelly Bowls writing in the Free Press, she's 562 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 3: absolutely hilarious. In other news of the Jews, an Austrian 563 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 3: heiress to the industrial dynasty whose company manufactured Zyklon B, 564 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 3: the chemical used to gas Jews during the Holocaust. One 565 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 3: of the heiresses of that company is set to sail 566 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,000 Speaker 3: on a freedom flotilla to Gaza. 567 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: Wow.
