WEBVTT - Those Obnoxious She-Devils

0:00:01.960 --> 0:00:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George

0:00:06.320 --> 0:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center.

0:00:07.920 --> 0:00:12.559
<v Speaker 2>Jack Armstrong, Joe Caddy, I'm strong and Jettie and he

0:00:15.520 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Armstrong and Eddie.

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:25.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm going over the president. Joe Batten. Something that you're

0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:26.480
<v Speaker 3>keeping your glovebox.

0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:27.920
<v Speaker 2>I like to buy a vow.

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:30.560
<v Speaker 1>That is.

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:36.280
<v Speaker 2>That's the wrong game. Plea, Come on, Conan, what are

0:00:36.320 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 2>you doing?

0:00:37.080 --> 0:00:37.440
<v Speaker 1>It's me.

0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:40.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm still the president. I'm Joe. I may be older.

0:00:40.920 --> 0:00:43.360
<v Speaker 2>I'll beat the hell out of you. I'll pop you.

0:00:43.520 --> 0:00:45.239
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you an uncle sandwich. You know how to

0:00:45.280 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 2>do it. I can make sandwiches. And guess what, here's

0:00:48.120 --> 0:00:50.960
<v Speaker 2>the deal. I'm not the old one now. Trump is

0:00:51.560 --> 0:00:52.320
<v Speaker 2>the only difference.

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:55.440
<v Speaker 4>I know when to walk away about six months too late?

0:00:57.080 --> 0:01:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, show me whatever that was? Oh man, that was

0:01:03.000 --> 0:01:03.360
<v Speaker 2>the answer.

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 5>So bad.

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:05.000
<v Speaker 2>They gave you a double X.

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:05.480
<v Speaker 5>All right.

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:08.039
<v Speaker 4>So once again, if you didn't watch Sara High Live,

0:01:08.480 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 4>Dana Carvey there went to his blank stare like when

0:01:12.000 --> 0:01:14.959
<v Speaker 4>Biden locks up. But this week they cut away immediately

0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 4>with the camera. They didn't hang on that. Yeah, so

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 4>I think it's interesting. They didn't tell Carvey to stop,

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:21.800
<v Speaker 4>but they cut away from it.

0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I think you nailed it earlier, the great, the

0:01:25.600 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 1>legendary Dana Carvey. They don't want to step on his bit,

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:31.960
<v Speaker 1>like tell him not to do it, but they just

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:32.720
<v Speaker 1>cut away.

0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, hmmm yeah.

0:01:35.920 --> 0:01:38.000
<v Speaker 1>If you didn't watch it, and a lot of y'all

0:01:38.040 --> 0:01:42.479
<v Speaker 1>don't it. It was unsparing in its mockery of Kamala

0:01:42.520 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 1>and Walls and Joe Biden. Absolutely, yeah, yeah, which good.

0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:51.400
<v Speaker 1>So I point this out just because I think, and

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 1>there's there's an old joke that war is how Americans

0:01:54.920 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>learned geography, and Africa is more than simmering. It's boiling

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 1>with violence and extremism and instability. I mean, just to

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:20.480
<v Speaker 1>give you an idea, welcome to you. What's up with Africa?

0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:29.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god? Indeed, I can't believe that this song

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 2>made a comeback. I hated it when it originally came out.

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 1>Don't bless the rains down in Africa. You're a monster.

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>I've loved it since the first time I heard it.

0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 1>This is one of our great points of disagreements.

0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 2>I've always hated it and how can you dislike that hook?

0:02:42.720 --> 0:02:47.080
<v Speaker 2>Dorminy's Frat Rock loves it. Though it's hugely popular among

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 2>my college kids. How can it not be. It's a

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:52.520
<v Speaker 2>great song. Everybody knows that.

0:02:53.280 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>So and I realize you're going to be atial Jino

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:02.680
<v Speaker 1>about twenty two seconds into this, you're gonna be thinking

0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:03.920
<v Speaker 1>where's he going with this?

0:03:04.080 --> 0:03:06.959
<v Speaker 2>And that's kind of the point.

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 1>A surprise deal that could allow Ethiopia to base warships

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 1>in a breakaway region of Somalia is stoking tensions throughout

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>a corner of Africa already ablaze with militant violence. Under

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:27.480
<v Speaker 1>the agreement, Somaliland, which is an independent, self declared state

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 1>within Somalia's recognized borders, they would grant landlocked Ethiopia the

0:03:34.000 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 1>rights to naval and commercial port facilities on the Red Sea.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 4>So did Somaliland do what northern Californian part of Oregon

0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:42.120
<v Speaker 4>been wanting to do?

0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:45.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they did a state of Jefferson. Yeah exactly, although

0:03:45.640 --> 0:03:48.640
<v Speaker 1>with a hell of a lot of blood letting. So

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:52.800
<v Speaker 1>in return, Ethiopia would be the first country in the

0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>world to recognize Somaliland is actually its own country, an

0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>independent state. Obviously, this is angered Somalia. International players from

0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Cairo to Washington are getting involved. Let's see, Egypt is

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 1>furious over a giant dam Ethiopia built on the Blue Nile?

0:04:11.280 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Are there two niles? The Blue Nile? Blue Nile sounds

0:04:15.640 --> 0:04:17.400
<v Speaker 1>like a good I don't know, liquor.

0:04:17.520 --> 0:04:20.080
<v Speaker 4>This is like what they're doing with the moons. Got

0:04:20.080 --> 0:04:22.040
<v Speaker 4>the Harvest supermoon and all the different moons. Now we

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:22.839
<v Speaker 4>got different niles.

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I have no idea.

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:27.359
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, so Egypt is so pissed off about this

0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 1>giant dam. They've joined Somalia's camp and delivered a shipload

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 1>of artillery and anti tank weapons to Somalia. The US,

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:39.440
<v Speaker 1>which has four hundred and fifty commandos and defense personnel

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:43.000
<v Speaker 1>stationed in Somalia, how many knew that? As I mentioned

0:04:43.720 --> 0:04:48.719
<v Speaker 1>referred to last hour to advise local troops. But advise, yeah,

0:04:48.800 --> 0:04:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I've heard from guys who've come back.

0:04:51.000 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:04:51.240 --> 0:04:54.279
<v Speaker 1>Often the advising is shoot like this, bam bam, bam,

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:59.680
<v Speaker 1>bam bam as they exchange fire. Anyway, they're advising local

0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:04.640
<v Speaker 1>troops fighting al Shabab and the Islamic State. The US

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.359
<v Speaker 1>is worried that this battle is distracting Mogadishu from the

0:05:07.360 --> 0:05:09.919
<v Speaker 1>eighteen year old counter insurgency war.

0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:12.440
<v Speaker 2>Easy to breeze through that sentence.

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:18.760
<v Speaker 1>Eighteen years now they've been fighting various Islamist lunatic groups.

0:05:19.160 --> 0:05:19.839
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that something?

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:21.720
<v Speaker 4>There are so many parts of the world, A lot

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:24.479
<v Speaker 4>of them in Africa, most of them in Africa where

0:05:24.560 --> 0:05:29.400
<v Speaker 4>it's like those apocalyptic movies, yes that you watch, where

0:05:29.400 --> 0:05:32.960
<v Speaker 4>it's just but worse. Yeah, the human suffering.

0:05:33.400 --> 0:05:37.720
<v Speaker 1>Very few of those apocalyptic movies show children being machetied

0:05:37.720 --> 0:05:38.799
<v Speaker 1>to death, for instance.

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, the whole world could become that way easily if

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 4>you don't have oh yeah, you know, oh yeah, the

0:05:43.880 --> 0:05:48.560
<v Speaker 4>natural tendency is toward chaos. In August, militants launched a

0:05:48.600 --> 0:05:53.760
<v Speaker 4>suicide attack on Mogadishu's Lido Beach, killing thirty seven civilians

0:05:53.800 --> 0:05:56.359
<v Speaker 4>and injuring more than two hundred and ten. Did you

0:05:56.560 --> 0:05:57.680
<v Speaker 4>even hear about that?

0:05:57.880 --> 0:05:58.120
<v Speaker 2>Nope?

0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:01.279
<v Speaker 1>Might have, you know, kind of passed on your internet feed.

0:06:01.760 --> 0:06:05.719
<v Speaker 1>Small force of Islamic state fighters is also gaining strength. Okay,

0:06:05.880 --> 0:06:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Western officials believe Yemen based who the militis, Oh, we're

0:06:10.920 --> 0:06:13.919
<v Speaker 1>in Yemen now, who have been launching missiles at shipping

0:06:13.960 --> 0:06:18.400
<v Speaker 1>in the Red Sea purportedly to support the Palestinians, have

0:06:18.520 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>made contact with al Shabab, which is a bit of

0:06:21.320 --> 0:06:22.680
<v Speaker 1>a nightmare scenario.

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 4>All the college kids marching in the street about these

0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 4>horrors in Africa.

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Too, not so much so providing various militants with armed

0:06:31.120 --> 0:06:33.840
<v Speaker 1>drones that might enable al Shabab to mount deadlier attacks

0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:38.080
<v Speaker 1>on us and allied positions in Somalia. Now, we haven't

0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:41.760
<v Speaker 1>even mentioned Eritrea, which split off from Thiopia after a

0:06:41.960 --> 0:06:47.360
<v Speaker 1>thirty year freaking civil war, taking Ethiopia's only seacoast with it.

0:06:47.839 --> 0:06:53.279
<v Speaker 1>So Ethiopia needs the Somaliland sea coast that used to

0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:58.320
<v Speaker 1>be Somalia's sea coast because Eritrea shot and killed enough

0:06:58.360 --> 0:07:01.600
<v Speaker 1>people that they split off to clear their own damn country.

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:05.680
<v Speaker 1>None of this is fully settled, and everybody's ready to

0:07:05.720 --> 0:07:08.560
<v Speaker 1>start slaughtering each other as quickly as possible if they can.

0:07:09.000 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 1>They mentioned that Somali and Somali Land actually were united

0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>when Somalia got its independence in nineteen sixty, but they

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.840
<v Speaker 1>fell out when Somali dictator Mohammed Siad Bar oversaw the

0:07:22.040 --> 0:07:25.840
<v Speaker 1>slaughter of tens of thousands of Somali Landers in the

0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 1>late nineteen eighties.

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:30.440
<v Speaker 2>I have a narrow Eritrea. I have to take a

0:07:30.440 --> 0:07:31.000
<v Speaker 2>pill for it.

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:39.880
<v Speaker 1>So everybody's familiar with the Great Tutsies and what was

0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:45.280
<v Speaker 1>it in that's right, in Rwanda. Everybody's familiar with that

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:47.640
<v Speaker 1>one because they made a movie. Well, right, but there's

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:52.400
<v Speaker 1>tens of thousands of people getting slaughtered right now.

0:07:51.560 --> 0:07:53.640
<v Speaker 2>In two or three different conflicts.

0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 4>And again, our college campuses are royaled with people protesting

0:07:57.360 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 4>the variety of the war.

0:07:58.520 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that Israel is defending its elf, and they call

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:04.560
<v Speaker 1>it a genocide even though it's nothing like that. So anyway,

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.880
<v Speaker 1>the problem with all of this is, of course that

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:11.680
<v Speaker 1>China is trying to take advantage and raise its geopolitical

0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:16.440
<v Speaker 1>power to wield against us, and the idea of just

0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:19.360
<v Speaker 1>staying at home and letting Africa go to hell is

0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:24.280
<v Speaker 1>not a practical one, especially because the world is so tiny. Now,

0:08:24.640 --> 0:08:27.200
<v Speaker 1>you got some militant group like al Shabab. The moment

0:08:27.240 --> 0:08:29.280
<v Speaker 1>they can strike the US, they'll do it.

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.360
<v Speaker 4>Sure, it's not appreciated enough that the whole world could

0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:36.840
<v Speaker 4>look like Africa. Yes, in one hundred years, if you

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:40.040
<v Speaker 4>don't still have a US World Order, led World Order,

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.000
<v Speaker 4>or Europe or Western civilization or somebody.

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, every part of the world has looked like Africa

0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:50.360
<v Speaker 1>more or less at some point. Sure, until some great

0:08:50.520 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>power said y'all are going to settle down, or we'll

0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:53.440
<v Speaker 1>kill you.

0:08:53.480 --> 0:08:55.959
<v Speaker 2>Quicker than those guys can. Whether it's Rome or.

0:08:56.240 --> 0:09:03.760
<v Speaker 4>Various Chinese princedoms, prince whatever they call them.

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.720
<v Speaker 1>Ottoman Empire invited the foot rest. Yeah, lots and lots

0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:06.320
<v Speaker 1>of inventeds.

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:10.200
<v Speaker 2>Did I say invited? I'm an invented. That was close? Yeah,

0:09:10.520 --> 0:09:14.560
<v Speaker 2>got Yeah. That whole thing, the whole Africa thing is fascinating. Yeah,

0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:18.120
<v Speaker 2>that's the state of human kind.

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 1>Uh. They would tell you in the universities that's because

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:28.560
<v Speaker 1>of colonialism, settler colonialism, and they're not completely wrong, but

0:09:28.600 --> 0:09:35.680
<v Speaker 1>they way overstated. And that's what's up with Africa.

0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:39.920
<v Speaker 4>It sounds a lot scharier in the song the harmony

0:09:39.960 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 4>right here, because a harmony takes over the melody.

0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:49.559
<v Speaker 2>It's this brilliant songwriting. Bless You've gotta.

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:52.280
<v Speaker 1>Bless the rings down in Africa, or you'll get more violence.

0:09:52.760 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 2>I rest my case, We'll use rape as a weapon

0:09:57.440 --> 0:10:00.800
<v Speaker 2>down in Africa. Is that one of the lyrics?

0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:01.040
<v Speaker 5>Good?

0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Na Geez's really grim man grim.

0:10:07.120 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 4>It was the one thing I want to jamming synthesizer

0:10:09.440 --> 0:10:10.360
<v Speaker 4>before he took a break.

0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:12.319
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I get this is our teas. This is a

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:12.800
<v Speaker 2>good teas.

0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:17.080
<v Speaker 4>All right, I'm happy when this happens that it turns

0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:22.880
<v Speaker 4>out that y'all all, y'all Americans, human beings are paying

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:28.000
<v Speaker 4>enough attention that you get this result. Gallup shows a

0:10:28.240 --> 0:10:31.760
<v Speaker 4>record low approval and they've been doing this for many,

0:10:31.760 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 4>many decades. Record low approval of the media in terms

0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.960
<v Speaker 4>of believing what they tell you. Yeah, that ain't good,

0:10:39.320 --> 0:10:43.280
<v Speaker 4>but it's accurate. It's heartening, isn't it to see that

0:10:43.400 --> 0:10:44.679
<v Speaker 4>people perceive.

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:46.439
<v Speaker 5>It.

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:50.000
<v Speaker 4>It is heartening that people understand that it's true. It's bad,

0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:52.960
<v Speaker 4>that it's actually happening, very bad.

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:53.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:10:53.400 --> 0:10:56.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm beyond the point of wishing things were better. I

0:10:57.000 --> 0:10:58.920
<v Speaker 1>just want people to understand so they can join us

0:10:58.920 --> 0:10:59.360
<v Speaker 1>in the fight.

0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:02.240
<v Speaker 4>Some of them are just amazing that and other stuff

0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:05.120
<v Speaker 4>on the way.

0:11:06.480 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 3>Okay, don't let the people survey top six answers on

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.600
<v Speaker 3>the board name something that you're keeping your glove compartment,

0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:14.080
<v Speaker 3>oh dp, Harris Steve.

0:11:14.559 --> 0:11:18.240
<v Speaker 6>Look, I was raised in a middle class family.

0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:19.719
<v Speaker 2>All right, Oh, here we go.

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 6>Okay. My mother raised my sister and me, all right,

0:11:23.559 --> 0:11:25.800
<v Speaker 6>she worked hard and saved up.

0:11:25.920 --> 0:11:26.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:11:26.280 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 6>Uh, and we had a second mother too.

0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 3>Okay, did that mother have a global compartment?

0:11:31.880 --> 0:11:34.160
<v Speaker 6>A small business? Owner named Miss Shelton.

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.679
<v Speaker 3>Okay, we got that something that you keep in your

0:11:36.760 --> 0:11:37.440
<v Speaker 3>local apartment.

0:11:38.040 --> 0:11:42.760
<v Speaker 6>Oh a glock? See if a big old clock? Oh oh.

0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:46.400
<v Speaker 2>Stamp? Okay, so you strapped like that?

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:46.960
<v Speaker 6>All right?

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:49.240
<v Speaker 2>Show me the blip black wicket.

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.400
<v Speaker 3>Number two answer the Democrats is controlling the boards.

0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:57.520
<v Speaker 2>That's from the opening Saturday Night Life.

0:11:57.559 --> 0:12:02.360
<v Speaker 4>There's not a chance that the people running Kamala Harris's

0:12:02.400 --> 0:12:07.240
<v Speaker 4>campaign don't watch Saturday Night Live for q's m or

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:09.400
<v Speaker 4>or just watch it in general, but watch it for q's.

0:12:09.440 --> 0:12:12.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, what's their take on things?

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:15.280
<v Speaker 4>Do they do they watch that and think, oh, damn,

0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.480
<v Speaker 4>we've done the whole middle class family thing too much?

0:12:17.559 --> 0:12:20.400
<v Speaker 4>Or do think they think perfect, We've hit it enough times.

0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:22.880
<v Speaker 4>It's like advertising. I remember it in radio. We used

0:12:22.880 --> 0:12:25.840
<v Speaker 4>to complain to our bosses, I can't stand this concert

0:12:25.880 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 4>promo that we're running.

0:12:27.000 --> 0:12:30.280
<v Speaker 2>It's killing me. When you're tired of it, the listener

0:12:30.320 --> 0:12:34.280
<v Speaker 2>has just heard it for the first time, just comprehended it. Yeah, yeah,

0:12:34.320 --> 0:12:36.000
<v Speaker 2>So is that the way they steal question?

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.480
<v Speaker 4>I wonder if the campaign people think good, we've we've

0:12:38.679 --> 0:12:41.800
<v Speaker 4>we've got that solidly in people's minds that you come

0:12:41.800 --> 0:12:42.760
<v Speaker 4>from a middle class fan.

0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:44.640
<v Speaker 2>What I want to know.

0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Is is blip bland and blicky?

0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.880
<v Speaker 2>I don't know a known term.

0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, but it made me laugh, made me laugh.

0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:57.040
<v Speaker 4>I love the way they portray her husband too. The

0:12:57.080 --> 0:13:00.800
<v Speaker 4>Andy Samberg kind of just really weak guys.

0:13:00.920 --> 0:13:02.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, spineless.

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:07.360
<v Speaker 4>That's awesome. If she wins, I hope that hangs around.

0:13:09.679 --> 0:13:10.680
<v Speaker 4>This is not shocking.

0:13:10.960 --> 0:13:13.959
<v Speaker 2>Well, isn't he the guy who allegedly slapped down a girlfriend?

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:15.240
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Okay, that's a contrasting image.

0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:23.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, good point.

0:13:25.800 --> 0:13:28.480
<v Speaker 4>Confidence in the media has fallen to a new low.

0:13:29.360 --> 0:13:32.080
<v Speaker 4>According to Gallup, who has been asking this question for

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:36.080
<v Speaker 4>a very long time. New polling shows a record low

0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:39.960
<v Speaker 4>thirty one percent of adults have a great deal or

0:13:40.080 --> 0:13:42.720
<v Speaker 4>fair amount of confidence in the media to report the news.

0:13:42.800 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh that includes fair.

0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:52.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, the flip side of it is amazing. The biggest number,

0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:56.360
<v Speaker 4>what they call the plurality. Thirty six percent have no

0:13:56.679 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 4>trust at all in newspaper, television and radio outlets. Thirty

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:07.240
<v Speaker 4>six percent zero trust, yeah, and then another thirty three

0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:08.600
<v Speaker 4>percent not very much.

0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:11.680
<v Speaker 2>So if you add zero to not very.

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:15.079
<v Speaker 4>Much, you're at call it seventy percent at sixty nine

0:14:15.120 --> 0:14:19.560
<v Speaker 4>giggay gg wow. Wow, Well that's about appropriate it is.

0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:21.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean, how do you argue with that? I mean,

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:24.560
<v Speaker 4>I kind of am. I guess my question would be

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:28.640
<v Speaker 4>those of you who have some confidence, what is your deal?

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:33.160
<v Speaker 1>Well, I'm we're both at the point that we're old

0:14:33.240 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 1>enough that we see the arc of history Jack, which

0:14:36.320 --> 0:14:42.480
<v Speaker 1>bends toward more crap in my experience. But you've got

0:14:42.520 --> 0:14:51.400
<v Speaker 1>a problem, like an awful, dishonest, biased activist media. You

0:14:51.520 --> 0:14:54.000
<v Speaker 1>gotta get through the whole people become aware of it

0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:56.720
<v Speaker 1>stage before you can really get serious about fixing it.

0:14:56.920 --> 0:15:00.920
<v Speaker 1>And whether it's the transgender sports thing, dudes playing in

0:15:00.920 --> 0:15:04.280
<v Speaker 1>women's sports, I'm just gonna start calling it that, or

0:15:05.240 --> 0:15:08.240
<v Speaker 1>awareness of how corrupt the media is. We're at the

0:15:08.760 --> 0:15:13.680
<v Speaker 1>people recognizing it. It's a pretty big problem. So that's encouraging.

0:15:14.280 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 4>Does that leave a hole for like some of the

0:15:16.760 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 4>stuff I take in the Dispatch, Mark Halpern's newsletter, people

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:23.600
<v Speaker 4>that I trust are really really trying hard to get

0:15:23.600 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 4>it right.

0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:27.280
<v Speaker 1>The Free Press, the Armstrong and Getty Show. Yeah yeah,

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean we have a point of view, but we're

0:15:29.920 --> 0:15:32.000
<v Speaker 1>and that's the difference. Sometimes people say, you guys, I

0:15:32.080 --> 0:15:33.600
<v Speaker 1>like you because you're right down the middle. I mean,

0:15:33.720 --> 0:15:38.280
<v Speaker 1>we're avowed conservatives, but try to be fair. I always

0:15:38.320 --> 0:15:43.280
<v Speaker 1>tried to be fair and honest and not pander, which

0:15:43.360 --> 0:15:48.440
<v Speaker 1>I think is fine. If those of not just she

0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:54.160
<v Speaker 1>Devils who moderated the debate, we're to come out.

0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:59.040
<v Speaker 4>That's you being fair and charitable. That's Joe being fair

0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.400
<v Speaker 4>and charitable. It's not just she Devils.

0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I had a much worse term right there in Beckham,

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:09.800
<v Speaker 1>a tongue ready to climb out into their front room. Anyway,

0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:13.400
<v Speaker 1>if they came out and said, look, obviously we come

0:16:13.440 --> 0:16:18.040
<v Speaker 1>at this from a progressive point of view, they would

0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:21.240
<v Speaker 1>get partial credit from me. Of course, that's not their job,

0:16:21.240 --> 0:16:23.040
<v Speaker 1>and that's not what they claim to be. They're utterly

0:16:23.080 --> 0:16:25.000
<v Speaker 1>dishonest about it. That's the problem.

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're right.

0:16:25.840 --> 0:16:27.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Well you'd have to come out and say we're

0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:29.760
<v Speaker 4>only going to fact check one side right because we

0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:30.640
<v Speaker 4>hate the other side.

0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Well, then why would I watch? And I don't care

0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:35.680
<v Speaker 1>how much she lies, just as long as she beats

0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:36.160
<v Speaker 1>that guy.

0:16:36.400 --> 0:16:36.600
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:16:36.680 --> 0:16:43.000
<v Speaker 4>So let's get started. So we should have played this

0:16:43.080 --> 0:16:45.200
<v Speaker 4>last week when it happened. We didn't get around to it.

0:16:45.240 --> 0:16:50.520
<v Speaker 4>Barack Obama lecture in a bunch of black dudes about

0:16:50.840 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 4>them not voting for Kamala Harris, like lecturing them like

0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 4>they're like.

0:16:54.480 --> 0:16:57.680
<v Speaker 2>He's their dad, shaming them. Yes, and it was in the.

0:16:57.640 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 4>Hallway outside the event, but he canna he was on camera.

0:17:01.000 --> 0:17:03.760
<v Speaker 4>This was clearly designed to go viral, which it did. Yeah,

0:17:04.359 --> 0:17:06.920
<v Speaker 4>and I don't know how. I don't know how male

0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:09.600
<v Speaker 4>black voters reacted to it. I don't have any idea,

0:17:09.600 --> 0:17:10.919
<v Speaker 4>but we'll play that for you coming.

0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:18.280
<v Speaker 2>Up Armstrong and Getty and my numbers with the black

0:17:18.359 --> 0:17:21.800
<v Speaker 2>and especially black men. I love black men. I love them.

0:17:22.320 --> 0:17:27.600
<v Speaker 2>I love them. I have gone through the roof with

0:17:27.760 --> 0:17:31.840
<v Speaker 2>black men, black men.

0:17:33.080 --> 0:17:35.280
<v Speaker 4>Speaking of hammering messages kind of like we were talking

0:17:35.320 --> 0:17:37.440
<v Speaker 4>about earlier with the Kamala Harris. I come from a

0:17:37.480 --> 0:17:39.760
<v Speaker 4>middle class family. I mean, Trump is in the sales

0:17:39.800 --> 0:17:43.560
<v Speaker 4>business and he and he clearly feels like hammering the

0:17:43.760 --> 0:17:46.080
<v Speaker 4>just hammering the phrase over and over and over and

0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:47.040
<v Speaker 4>over again is.

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:48.159
<v Speaker 2>To make sure is the way to get it to

0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:49.000
<v Speaker 2>stick in people's heads.

0:17:49.040 --> 0:17:49.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:51.439
<v Speaker 1>Somebody told me that he references that in the Art

0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:53.800
<v Speaker 1>of the Deal. Yeah, the power of repetition.

0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:55.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he does. I haven't read it.

0:17:56.080 --> 0:18:00.199
<v Speaker 4>And on the whole uh black men thing, which has

0:18:00.200 --> 0:18:01.639
<v Speaker 4>become a bit of a topic, and we're about to

0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:07.680
<v Speaker 4>hear Barack Obama lecturing black men about that. So Democrats

0:18:07.880 --> 0:18:13.240
<v Speaker 4>won the black vote in general, this isn't just men,

0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:16.040
<v Speaker 4>but uh and he's even and it's worse among men

0:18:16.080 --> 0:18:21.040
<v Speaker 4>than women, But among all black voters, Democrats won by

0:18:21.160 --> 0:18:24.720
<v Speaker 4>eighty five in twenty sixteen, Hillary won that vote by

0:18:24.720 --> 0:18:29.080
<v Speaker 4>eighty five points. In twenty twenty, Biden won it by

0:18:29.119 --> 0:18:32.879
<v Speaker 4>eighty one points. Kamala currently leads it by sixty three.

0:18:33.320 --> 0:18:36.199
<v Speaker 4>Now still obviously that's a giant win. But that's a

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 4>twenty two point drop, yeah, from.

0:18:39.880 --> 0:18:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Twenty sixteen, and an unmistakable trend. And when you're dealing

0:18:44.920 --> 0:18:48.960
<v Speaker 1>with something as culturally entrenched as the idea that black

0:18:49.000 --> 0:18:54.120
<v Speaker 1>folks vote for Democrats, the fact that you could unstick

0:18:54.160 --> 0:18:56.240
<v Speaker 1>it that much, that's really significant.

0:18:56.400 --> 0:18:59.560
<v Speaker 4>I gotta believe it's the same issues, whatever they are,

0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:04.159
<v Speaker 4>and we're all guessing that's caused the Hispanic vote to

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.159
<v Speaker 4>turn so much. The New York Times with their analysis

0:19:07.200 --> 0:19:11.040
<v Speaker 4>that Trump's doing better with his Hispanics than any other

0:19:11.040 --> 0:19:13.480
<v Speaker 4>Republican ever, has Kamala Harris is doing worse than a

0:19:13.640 --> 0:19:14.480
<v Speaker 4>Democrat ever has.

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:16.480
<v Speaker 2>I gotta believe it's the same stuff anyway.

0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:19.120
<v Speaker 4>So Barack Obama gave a speech the other day, big

0:19:19.160 --> 0:19:21.840
<v Speaker 4>one in Pennsylvania in front of a giant crowd. Then

0:19:21.880 --> 0:19:24.359
<v Speaker 4>he was like in the hallway of the arena later

0:19:24.440 --> 0:19:28.040
<v Speaker 4>talking to some black guys. Clearly this was designed to

0:19:28.280 --> 0:19:30.919
<v Speaker 4>go viral. Somebody who's there with the camera out talking,

0:19:31.240 --> 0:19:33.560
<v Speaker 4>you know, recording him. I mean, it's not like he

0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.399
<v Speaker 4>got caught. It's not an open mic thing, right, this

0:19:36.480 --> 0:19:37.119
<v Speaker 4>is on purpose.

0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:38.680
<v Speaker 2>We had not yet.

0:19:38.920 --> 0:19:45.840
<v Speaker 5>See the same kinds of energy had turnout in all courts.

0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:48.520
<v Speaker 2>How our neighborhoods, and to get musicism solve.

0:19:52.600 --> 0:19:58.240
<v Speaker 5>Now, I also want to say that that seems to

0:19:58.280 --> 0:20:03.600
<v Speaker 5>be more pronounced with the brothers. So if you don't

0:20:03.600 --> 0:20:05.640
<v Speaker 5>mind just for a second, I'm gonna speak to y'all

0:20:09.040 --> 0:20:14.280
<v Speaker 5>and say that when you have a choice that is

0:20:14.359 --> 0:20:22.160
<v Speaker 5>this clean. And on one hand, you have somebody who

0:20:24.680 --> 0:20:30.400
<v Speaker 5>grew up like you, knows you went to college, would

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:40.320
<v Speaker 5>you understands the struggles and pain and joy that comes

0:20:41.880 --> 0:20:43.960
<v Speaker 5>from those experiences.

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:45.200
<v Speaker 2>Of living in Montreal.

0:20:46.960 --> 0:20:48.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, he goes on to say, and I thought that's

0:20:48.480 --> 0:20:50.000
<v Speaker 4>actually what the clip was going to be. He goes

0:20:50.040 --> 0:20:53.720
<v Speaker 4>on to say, basically, I'm disappointed in you? What's wrong

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:56.680
<v Speaker 4>with you? Come on, get your act together, I mean,

0:20:56.760 --> 0:20:58.600
<v Speaker 4>like really lecturing tone.

0:20:58.680 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, and that part about it's because some of

0:21:01.200 --> 0:21:03.640
<v Speaker 1>y'all aren't good with a woman being president.

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:05.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, we actually will have to grab that because that's

0:21:05.840 --> 0:21:08.640
<v Speaker 4>the whole point. I mean, yeah, so you won't vote

0:21:08.640 --> 0:21:10.800
<v Speaker 4>for a woman? I am disappointed in you?

0:21:11.119 --> 0:21:12.119
<v Speaker 2>What yeah?

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:12.560
<v Speaker 6>What?

0:21:12.920 --> 0:21:14.159
<v Speaker 2>Wow? I can't believe that.

0:21:14.280 --> 0:21:17.680
<v Speaker 4>He immediately assumes that if black men aren't voting for

0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:19.960
<v Speaker 4>Kamala Harris, it's because they won't they don't believe a

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:21.040
<v Speaker 4>woman should be president.

0:21:21.960 --> 0:21:23.720
<v Speaker 2>A few dude, it would be my thought.

0:21:24.320 --> 0:21:27.119
<v Speaker 4>Wow, I could have all kinds of reasons for choosing

0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:30.000
<v Speaker 4>one candidate over another, got nothing to do with whether

0:21:30.000 --> 0:21:34.119
<v Speaker 4>it's a woman or not. But you're smart, Harvard former

0:21:34.200 --> 0:21:37.800
<v Speaker 4>president godfather is here to tell you the only reason

0:21:37.840 --> 0:21:41.480
<v Speaker 4>you'd vote against her is because you're sexist, and you're

0:21:41.520 --> 0:21:43.160
<v Speaker 4>too dumb to.

0:21:44.359 --> 0:21:45.359
<v Speaker 2>Overcome that argument.

0:21:46.000 --> 0:21:48.639
<v Speaker 1>And then that's the argument essentially, because for me to

0:21:48.800 --> 0:21:51.679
<v Speaker 1>fall for that, I would have to be so easily

0:21:51.960 --> 0:21:56.640
<v Speaker 1>cowed that any any accusation whatsoever would change my mind.

0:21:56.680 --> 0:21:59.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, I'll do what you say, or I'm so

0:21:59.520 --> 0:22:03.159
<v Speaker 1>dumb I can't think a policy.

0:22:04.160 --> 0:22:06.760
<v Speaker 2>So that's an incredibly insulting argument.

0:22:06.480 --> 0:22:08.520
<v Speaker 4>All right, and then throw in a dose of I'm

0:22:08.560 --> 0:22:10.600
<v Speaker 4>disappointed in you or you're letting me down.

0:22:11.040 --> 0:22:17.639
<v Speaker 2>Uh okay, whatever, Yeah, sorry. I was amazed by that.

0:22:17.880 --> 0:22:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah.

0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:23.240
<v Speaker 4>And like I said, I really think they put that

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 4>out there to go viral. I mean, they wanted to

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:28.240
<v Speaker 4>be seen in all quarters, and I thought it was

0:22:28.840 --> 0:22:32.280
<v Speaker 4>I generally think Barack Obama is, you know, your top

0:22:32.320 --> 0:22:33.360
<v Speaker 4>tier of politicians.

0:22:33.560 --> 0:22:35.280
<v Speaker 2>I thought that was a horrible look.

0:22:36.840 --> 0:22:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I think he is post needing anything from anybody, and

0:22:45.880 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 1>he has never lacked for confidence. No, but the very

0:22:51.240 --> 0:22:54.400
<v Speaker 1>very pleased with himself to the point of being insufferably

0:22:54.480 --> 0:23:00.119
<v Speaker 1>smug at times. And now he doesn't have to pretend otherwise. Well,

0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:03.320
<v Speaker 1>I think we're only seeing the beginning of the brand

0:23:03.359 --> 0:23:07.720
<v Speaker 1>new I'm better than you, I'm better than everybody.

0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:09.160
<v Speaker 2>I am a god.

0:23:09.720 --> 0:23:13.040
<v Speaker 1>Part of a portion of Barack Obama's life.

0:23:13.320 --> 0:23:18.000
<v Speaker 4>What what is what will the left do if Trump

0:23:18.119 --> 0:23:22.000
<v Speaker 4>wins and it's with you know, the biggest chunk of

0:23:22.080 --> 0:23:25.119
<v Speaker 4>black and Hispanic votes that any Republicans ever gotten and

0:23:25.240 --> 0:23:27.840
<v Speaker 4>the smallest group that any.

0:23:27.600 --> 0:23:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Democrats have been gone?

0:23:28.600 --> 0:23:29.840
<v Speaker 4>What are they gonna what are you gonna do with

0:23:29.880 --> 0:23:32.879
<v Speaker 4>that for your autopsy on the left after the election,

0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 4>You're probably.

0:23:34.359 --> 0:23:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Going to do a fair amount of polling to figure

0:23:36.000 --> 0:23:39.879
<v Speaker 1>out why that is, obviously, and when they discover it

0:23:40.040 --> 0:23:46.080
<v Speaker 1>is the far left madness, they will attempt to rein

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.840
<v Speaker 1>it in and soft pedal it. But the problem is

0:23:51.200 --> 0:23:54.560
<v Speaker 1>they didn't create the monster. They're just trying to win

0:23:54.600 --> 0:23:58.560
<v Speaker 1>its votes. And so if the Democratic Party turns against

0:23:58.680 --> 0:24:02.200
<v Speaker 1>the entire education establishment of the US and a lot

0:24:02.200 --> 0:24:04.840
<v Speaker 1>of the media who believe what they learned at Columbia

0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Journalism or whatever, it's going to.

0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:10.080
<v Speaker 2>Be a war for the ages and some of the issues.

0:24:10.119 --> 0:24:12.480
<v Speaker 4>Somebody on the text line pointed out the abortion issue,

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:14.919
<v Speaker 4>which is Kamala Harris feels like that's her, you know,

0:24:15.040 --> 0:24:16.560
<v Speaker 4>biggest strength as the abortant edition.

0:24:16.880 --> 0:24:18.879
<v Speaker 2>A lot of the Hispanic vote ain't down with that.

0:24:19.560 --> 0:24:24.040
<v Speaker 1>No, certainly not up until the moment of conception or

0:24:24.080 --> 0:24:28.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, birth and beyond if it's a botched abortion.

0:24:28.520 --> 0:24:29.680
<v Speaker 2>No, they don't like that a bit.

0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:33.080
<v Speaker 4>God, this reminds me of a conversation I had with

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:35.119
<v Speaker 4>somebody over the weekend trying to figure out whether I

0:24:35.119 --> 0:24:38.000
<v Speaker 4>want to go here or not. If Michelangelo is here.

0:24:38.000 --> 0:24:39.920
<v Speaker 4>What would he say, go ahead?

0:24:39.960 --> 0:24:42.359
<v Speaker 2>Do it makes you grin?

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:43.159
<v Speaker 4>I don't know.

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:45.040
<v Speaker 2>If I don't know if this would make you a grin.

0:24:46.880 --> 0:24:47.520
<v Speaker 2>I should think this.

0:24:47.560 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 1>If it improves the show, let it flow.

0:24:54.720 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 4>It doesn't look favorably upon the Mormon religion, oh, which

0:24:59.840 --> 0:25:04.119
<v Speaker 4>I I've always been pro. But I talked to somebody

0:25:04.119 --> 0:25:06.280
<v Speaker 4>who would know, as they were a Mormon for twenty

0:25:06.359 --> 0:25:11.960
<v Speaker 4>years married to a a Mormon gentleman who was gay

0:25:12.000 --> 0:25:14.600
<v Speaker 4>but hiding it. Finally came out after twenty years of

0:25:14.640 --> 0:25:18.199
<v Speaker 4>marriage and explained why he had no interest in her

0:25:18.240 --> 0:25:22.800
<v Speaker 4>for twenty years. That's painful, but she became a Mormon

0:25:22.840 --> 0:25:28.119
<v Speaker 4>to get married to the guy. And the questions about

0:25:28.680 --> 0:25:32.960
<v Speaker 4>whether you've ever masturbated and how you went about masturbating

0:25:33.040 --> 0:25:34.240
<v Speaker 4>and them writing it down?

0:25:34.440 --> 0:25:38.280
<v Speaker 1>Do you mean like today? You mean on the way

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 1>to work, like I didn't, I know nothing about it.

0:25:47.359 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 2>I didn't neither.

0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 4>I didn't either. And they got married in the big

0:25:51.080 --> 0:25:54.080
<v Speaker 4>Temple and everything. I mean, just you know that, the whole,

0:25:54.119 --> 0:25:56.720
<v Speaker 4>the whole. Not I'm not talking about like some of

0:25:56.720 --> 0:26:00.200
<v Speaker 4>those little enclaves in Utah where people have eight y

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:02.600
<v Speaker 4>you know, like the factions of oarm. This was like

0:26:02.800 --> 0:26:06.879
<v Speaker 4>mainstream and I was shocked by this, and and and

0:26:06.880 --> 0:26:08.119
<v Speaker 4>and then tell me a story.

0:26:08.119 --> 0:26:08.960
<v Speaker 2>I gotta be vague here.

0:26:08.960 --> 0:26:10.760
<v Speaker 4>I hope I don't get anybody in trouble, but I

0:26:10.840 --> 0:26:12.000
<v Speaker 4>was shocked by all this stuff.

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:15.639
<v Speaker 2>Dude who he and his wife.

0:26:17.359 --> 0:26:21.840
<v Speaker 4>Their divorce got married anyway, he was asked if he

0:26:22.040 --> 0:26:26.959
<v Speaker 4>had masturbated, and he said yes and got excommunicated, and

0:26:26.960 --> 0:26:29.600
<v Speaker 4>it had spent the last couple of years working his

0:26:29.680 --> 0:26:31.280
<v Speaker 4>way back into the church.

0:26:31.560 --> 0:26:35.320
<v Speaker 2>Wow, so that they can get married in the church. Wow, Wow,

0:26:35.560 --> 0:26:36.520
<v Speaker 2>I know. Wow.

0:26:36.800 --> 0:26:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Huh. Now that's a strict regulation there.

0:26:40.960 --> 0:26:44.280
<v Speaker 4>My only experience with Mormon families Mormon religion has been

0:26:44.320 --> 0:26:48.240
<v Speaker 4>one hundred percent positive, like the like seriously like best

0:26:48.240 --> 0:26:51.200
<v Speaker 4>people I've ever been around, like something to model your

0:26:51.200 --> 0:26:53.800
<v Speaker 4>life after, prize the family. So I only know this

0:26:53.880 --> 0:26:57.440
<v Speaker 4>anecdotal stuff that sounds yes, Hanson, you feel like I

0:26:57.560 --> 0:26:58.200
<v Speaker 4>just I'm sorry.

0:26:58.240 --> 0:26:59.879
<v Speaker 2>I should have said if they call it a sin,

0:27:00.000 --> 0:27:02.639
<v Speaker 2>I leave it in. That's now I feel like I

0:27:02.680 --> 0:27:04.600
<v Speaker 2>screwed up, So you grin leave it. But if called

0:27:04.600 --> 0:27:08.080
<v Speaker 2>that is, and don't leave it, but put it in

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:08.400
<v Speaker 2>the bin.

0:27:09.000 --> 0:27:11.359
<v Speaker 4>If anybody can speak to whether or not that's like

0:27:12.320 --> 0:27:15.120
<v Speaker 4>common or is this just like somebody that was off

0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:17.240
<v Speaker 4>the reservation, wacky?

0:27:19.119 --> 0:27:22.240
<v Speaker 1>But in telling that story, I have no idea, and

0:27:22.280 --> 0:27:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm intensely uncomfortable with this.

0:27:24.280 --> 0:27:27.280
<v Speaker 2>I am too well, Okay, explain why you're intensely uncomfortable.

0:27:27.760 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 2>I just.

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:34.959
<v Speaker 1>I if I am going to criticize or make sport

0:27:35.240 --> 0:27:37.679
<v Speaker 1>or whatever of a religious doctrine, I want to make

0:27:37.680 --> 0:27:41.200
<v Speaker 1>sure I have the facts right. Otherwise I'm just hurting

0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:48.840
<v Speaker 1>people's feelings in an unjustifiable way. Like I was very

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:52.439
<v Speaker 1>very careful about making sure I was on solid ground

0:27:53.040 --> 0:27:56.240
<v Speaker 1>talking about Islam and radical Islam, because there are plenty

0:27:56.280 --> 0:27:58.320
<v Speaker 1>of Muslim people who viewed as a personal faith that

0:27:58.440 --> 0:28:05.520
<v Speaker 1>the whole political quest domination aspect of Islam, the fundamentalist

0:28:05.520 --> 0:28:07.719
<v Speaker 1>part of it. A lot of people don't embrace that,

0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:12.920
<v Speaker 1>and I have no argument with them at all. But yeah,

0:28:12.920 --> 0:28:17.479
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot within Islam that is incompatible with a

0:28:17.560 --> 0:28:21.320
<v Speaker 1>peaceful world, fundamentalist Islam in my opinion, And I'm right.

0:28:21.760 --> 0:28:24.880
<v Speaker 4>I tell you, I was talking to these successful, normal

0:28:25.200 --> 0:28:28.320
<v Speaker 4>people we're telling this story, yeah, and I was like,

0:28:28.520 --> 0:28:29.200
<v Speaker 4>mouth open.

0:28:30.119 --> 0:28:35.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, the Catholic Church was staunchly against self pleasurement. You know,

0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:37.560
<v Speaker 1>during a lot of the twentieth century, the boys were

0:28:37.600 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>taught it would make them go blind. Yeah, but anybody

0:28:41.440 --> 0:28:42.720
<v Speaker 1>saying that now in.

0:28:42.680 --> 0:28:47.120
<v Speaker 2>The Catholic Church, I don't not as much. This was now.

0:28:47.360 --> 0:28:50.720
<v Speaker 4>This is like in like two years ago, you get

0:28:50.800 --> 0:28:52.880
<v Speaker 4>kicked out of church because I just thought of a

0:28:53.040 --> 0:28:57.000
<v Speaker 4>really inappropriate change. It just seems so crazy. It seems

0:28:57.000 --> 0:29:00.480
<v Speaker 4>crazy to me that you'd ever answered the question, why

0:29:00.520 --> 0:29:01.280
<v Speaker 4>would I tell you?

0:29:01.400 --> 0:29:01.760
<v Speaker 2>Dude?

0:29:02.960 --> 0:29:06.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, no, I can't even imagine answering that question.

0:29:06.520 --> 0:29:10.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, how about you handle your deal your life and

0:29:10.280 --> 0:29:12.959
<v Speaker 1>how you handle sex and sexuality with your partner, who

0:29:13.000 --> 0:29:16.520
<v Speaker 1>is very different than mine. Everybody's a little different, And yeah,

0:29:16.520 --> 0:29:19.160
<v Speaker 1>why don't we just worry about other stuff? Some people

0:29:19.200 --> 0:29:27.640
<v Speaker 1>think that is somehow fundamental to sin and self, you know, pleasure. Well,

0:29:28.120 --> 0:29:32.800
<v Speaker 1>it's a sin, that's an indulgence. It's a being undisciplined.

0:29:32.840 --> 0:29:34.520
<v Speaker 1>And see that I don't get.

0:29:34.520 --> 0:29:34.800
<v Speaker 2>I get.

0:29:34.800 --> 0:29:37.120
<v Speaker 4>I get some of the stuff, like the ungodly, the

0:29:37.160 --> 0:29:38.800
<v Speaker 4>hardcore sex before marriage.

0:29:39.400 --> 0:29:41.800
<v Speaker 2>You're not going to accomplish it. But I understand the reason.

0:29:41.840 --> 0:29:43.479
<v Speaker 4>There's all kinds of ways you can screw up your

0:29:43.480 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 4>life forever by you know, getting involved in too much

0:29:46.840 --> 0:29:49.200
<v Speaker 4>sex before marriage. And get somebody pregnantllity sort of stuff.

0:29:49.560 --> 0:29:53.400
<v Speaker 4>But I'm not sure about the masturbating part. I don't

0:29:53.440 --> 0:29:55.000
<v Speaker 4>understand where's the crime there.

0:29:55.360 --> 0:30:01.840
<v Speaker 2>It's has to do with lust. I think actualization. I

0:30:01.840 --> 0:30:05.000
<v Speaker 2>don't know, I don't I don't know.

0:30:05.720 --> 0:30:07.800
<v Speaker 4>See like on that I would be I'd be fine

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:10.600
<v Speaker 4>with lecturing people about the evils of internet porn.

0:30:10.640 --> 0:30:13.000
<v Speaker 2>I'd be fine with that, yeah, because it is awful.

0:30:13.040 --> 0:30:18.840
<v Speaker 2>It's terrible for you. But just you know, first of all,

0:30:19.520 --> 0:30:20.080
<v Speaker 2>if so.

0:30:20.080 --> 0:30:21.480
<v Speaker 4>You're telling me, all the guys are going in there

0:30:21.520 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 4>and saying no or they get excommunity.

0:30:23.120 --> 0:30:28.000
<v Speaker 2>Then they're lying. Well, true, So what have you accomplished? Right?

0:30:28.040 --> 0:30:28.800
<v Speaker 2>That's the old joke.

0:30:29.160 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Seventy percent of men say they have master made in

0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:37.200
<v Speaker 1>thirty percent or liars anyway, So this is this is

0:30:37.240 --> 0:30:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I would rather talk about Mogadishu's port deal with.

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:41.760
<v Speaker 2>The I'm sure.

0:30:42.560 --> 0:30:44.240
<v Speaker 4>I'm sure we'll get a bunch of texts about this

0:30:44.840 --> 0:30:46.840
<v Speaker 4>because I'm fascinated by this. I had never heard that

0:30:46.880 --> 0:30:47.360
<v Speaker 4>in my life.

0:30:48.400 --> 0:30:49.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I wish.

0:30:49.320 --> 0:30:51.920
<v Speaker 1>I'd taken a comparative religions class in college.

0:30:51.960 --> 0:30:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I never did.

0:30:53.200 --> 0:30:54.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I don't know if in college would be the

0:30:54.720 --> 0:30:56.440
<v Speaker 4>best place to get the straight scoop.

0:30:58.680 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 2>That's your professor. Probably every single religion he was talking.

0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:02.680
<v Speaker 2>He's gotten that idea.

0:31:02.880 --> 0:31:06.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, anyway, we will finish strong our text line, Yeah,

0:31:06.560 --> 0:31:09.080
<v Speaker 4>join in text line four one, five, two, nine five

0:31:09.160 --> 0:31:13.000
<v Speaker 4>k FTC will finish strong, next strong.

0:31:14.960 --> 0:31:18.000
<v Speaker 7>According to a new study, South Burlington, Vermont, is the

0:31:18.160 --> 0:31:21.040
<v Speaker 7>safest city in the country, while the least safe city

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:25.160
<v Speaker 7>is Diddy freak Off Nebraska.

0:31:27.040 --> 0:31:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Wow.

0:31:28.440 --> 0:31:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's a good joke. Yeah, they're a couple to trade.

0:31:32.440 --> 0:31:37.120
<v Speaker 2>Did he jokes? And nothing he did was funny.

0:31:37.120 --> 0:31:41.320
<v Speaker 1>But boy, the whole he's clearly guilty attitude is settled

0:31:41.360 --> 0:31:42.120
<v Speaker 1>across the land.

0:31:42.200 --> 0:31:43.960
<v Speaker 4>I gotta assume if you engage in a freak off

0:31:43.960 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 4>you get excommunicated. For many churches, yes, most so on

0:31:47.080 --> 0:31:50.400
<v Speaker 4>that topic, which I'm not going to restate, please, but

0:31:50.480 --> 0:31:53.520
<v Speaker 4>we got a number of texts, mostly from the that's

0:31:53.560 --> 0:31:55.520
<v Speaker 4>the craziest thing I've ever heard. I've been in the

0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:58.440
<v Speaker 4>church my whole life. My husband's a bishop, I'm a bishop.

0:31:58.440 --> 0:31:58.760
<v Speaker 2>Whatever.

0:31:58.840 --> 0:32:00.880
<v Speaker 4>That's a bunch of crap. You shouldn't be saying it.

0:32:01.040 --> 0:32:03.320
<v Speaker 4>Got a handful though, a couple, only well a handful

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:06.040
<v Speaker 4>two two people like yes I am in the church

0:32:06.080 --> 0:32:07.920
<v Speaker 4>or I was in the church, and that's absolutely true.

0:32:08.000 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 4>I don't have the slightest idea other than what I

0:32:10.520 --> 0:32:14.480
<v Speaker 4>heard from successful normal people who this happened to me,

0:32:15.000 --> 0:32:15.680
<v Speaker 4>happened to them.

0:32:16.080 --> 0:32:17.320
<v Speaker 2>So this is what I'd like to hear.

0:32:17.400 --> 0:32:21.479
<v Speaker 4>If you're knowledgeable about this, explain to me why they

0:32:21.480 --> 0:32:24.560
<v Speaker 4>would have had that experience, because I believe their experience,

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:28.400
<v Speaker 4>Like is it a weird like offshoot, or is it

0:32:28.480 --> 0:32:32.000
<v Speaker 4>like one crazy bishop just like they're bad priests, or sure,

0:32:32.080 --> 0:32:33.160
<v Speaker 4>what do you think happened there?

0:32:33.320 --> 0:32:36.240
<v Speaker 2>On text line four one five two nine five KFTC.

0:32:36.400 --> 0:32:39.040
<v Speaker 4>I'm pro organized religion, so I'm never trying to bring

0:32:39.080 --> 0:32:40.440
<v Speaker 4>down any organized religion.

0:32:40.880 --> 0:32:42.400
<v Speaker 2>Just be good at what you do.

0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 1>A couple of quick notes left this out last week,

0:32:46.240 --> 0:32:47.920
<v Speaker 1>and I was kicking myself for it over the weekend

0:32:48.000 --> 0:32:52.480
<v Speaker 1>that whole flap at CBS News where Tony Decouple dared

0:32:52.480 --> 0:32:55.600
<v Speaker 1>to do journalism and challenge one of the saints of

0:32:55.680 --> 0:32:59.200
<v Speaker 1>the left, Tana Hashi you pronounce it turns out coats

0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 1>how you get out of his anyway? That one of

0:33:04.480 --> 0:33:09.080
<v Speaker 1>the things the network brass did was they said they

0:33:09.080 --> 0:33:12.920
<v Speaker 1>were bringing in a mental health expert DEI strategist and

0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:15.760
<v Speaker 1>trauma trainer, a trauma.

0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:20.600
<v Speaker 4>Trainer to help people deal with the regular interview, right,

0:33:20.760 --> 0:33:24.080
<v Speaker 4>just good solid journalism, challenging a one sided view.

0:33:24.680 --> 0:33:28.480
<v Speaker 1>But then it turned out that this guy, doctor Donald Grant,

0:33:28.840 --> 0:33:33.040
<v Speaker 1>who's the anti racist type, is completely racist, because that's

0:33:33.080 --> 0:33:37.560
<v Speaker 1>what anti racism is. It's racism, but good racism. For instance,

0:33:37.600 --> 0:33:41.479
<v Speaker 1>he posted an altered cover of the classic Uncle Tom's

0:33:41.480 --> 0:33:46.400
<v Speaker 1>Cabin with Tim Scott's face on it, Uncle Tim's Cabin.

0:33:46.480 --> 0:33:46.959
<v Speaker 2>He called it.

0:33:47.680 --> 0:33:50.880
<v Speaker 1>That's fair calling Tim Scott an Uncle Tom for being

0:33:50.920 --> 0:33:55.200
<v Speaker 1>a Republican. So CBS quickly shuffled their feet, cleared their throat,

0:33:55.240 --> 0:33:56.840
<v Speaker 1>and disinvited the guy.

0:33:57.040 --> 0:33:59.480
<v Speaker 2>I guess, and then I want to throw this in

0:33:59.520 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 2>real quick. Oh we don't have time.

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:02.959
<v Speaker 4>We ought to hit it on it to get tomorrow.

0:34:02.960 --> 0:34:06.640
<v Speaker 4>This is a good topic. It's a good topic. And

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:10.239
<v Speaker 4>and my question still like is this good news or

0:34:10.280 --> 0:34:10.840
<v Speaker 4>bad news?

0:34:11.520 --> 0:34:14.200
<v Speaker 2>Like is this headed the right direction or the wrong direction?

0:34:14.440 --> 0:34:15.560
<v Speaker 2>It's the end of the beginning.

0:34:16.320 --> 0:34:20.719
<v Speaker 4>Okayw Hey, Rocky, what should we pull a final thought

0:34:20.760 --> 0:34:22.080
<v Speaker 4>out of my hat?

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:22.720
<v Speaker 6>Again?

0:34:23.440 --> 0:34:30.600
<v Speaker 2>That trick never works. Nothing up with sleeve pristo throwback there?

0:34:30.600 --> 0:34:31.040
<v Speaker 2>All right?

0:34:33.120 --> 0:34:35.560
<v Speaker 4>I like Rocky and bowlwegle you gotta be kind of old,

0:34:35.760 --> 0:34:37.879
<v Speaker 4>remember it. But here's your host for final thoughts.

0:34:37.960 --> 0:34:40.720
<v Speaker 2>Joe Gedden must get Moose and squirrel.

0:34:41.040 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew,

0:34:43.640 --> 0:34:48.360
<v Speaker 1>beginning with our technical director who is not here, segueing

0:34:48.440 --> 0:34:50.600
<v Speaker 1>over to our esteemed newswoman.

0:34:50.120 --> 0:34:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Who is not available.

0:34:53.080 --> 0:34:56.319
<v Speaker 1>Our technical I'm sorry, our executive producer, Mike Hanson is

0:34:56.480 --> 0:34:57.719
<v Speaker 1>filling in running the board today.

0:34:57.760 --> 0:34:58.879
<v Speaker 2>Hanson, you got a final thought.

0:34:59.160 --> 0:35:02.319
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, sure you're angst about Columbus stage, Jack, but for

0:35:02.400 --> 0:35:03.720
<v Speaker 4>a very different reason.

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:06.000
<v Speaker 2>It was late ericson.

0:35:05.680 --> 0:35:11.080
<v Speaker 7>'gus never knowing the mad Dagon stooool.

0:35:10.680 --> 0:35:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Anti Viking bias.

0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:15.320
<v Speaker 4>You're right, Jack in final thought, Yes, we are getting

0:35:15.400 --> 0:35:18.880
<v Speaker 4>tons of texts on this particular topic about religion, and

0:35:19.000 --> 0:35:21.000
<v Speaker 4>it sounds like it may be an out of control

0:35:21.160 --> 0:35:23.080
<v Speaker 4>particular bishop in one particular church.

0:35:23.120 --> 0:35:27.360
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. Hmmm, shouldn't that bishop take a meeting?

0:35:27.880 --> 0:35:28.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:35:28.280 --> 0:35:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Wowly not wow.

0:35:30.280 --> 0:35:32.759
<v Speaker 1>My final thought was I was completely convinced yesterday I

0:35:32.800 --> 0:35:34.479
<v Speaker 1>was gonna be mugged. I should have told this story

0:35:34.800 --> 0:35:39.359
<v Speaker 1>one percent. I was thinking, oh, man, getting my phone replaced,

0:35:39.480 --> 0:35:43.239
<v Speaker 1>and oh I'm going into but uh, I tried to

0:35:43.320 --> 0:35:46.160
<v Speaker 1>look very mean and angry. The guy looked at me,

0:35:46.320 --> 0:35:48.480
<v Speaker 1>turned around and walked away. Did you do a flying

0:35:48.480 --> 0:35:52.000
<v Speaker 1>scissor kick? I did, but it can neither fly nor scissors,

0:35:52.000 --> 0:35:54.440
<v Speaker 1>so it didn't really come out right. Kind of came

0:35:54.480 --> 0:35:57.320
<v Speaker 1>off with laying down. Yes see tomorrow, God meliss America.

0:35:59.320 --> 0:36:03.440
<v Speaker 2>I am proudly casting my vote from Armstrong and Getty.

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:05.600
<v Speaker 4>I can't imagine a more beautiful thing.

0:36:05.960 --> 0:36:09.160
<v Speaker 2>Good life, he said, wow, and boom goes to dynamite.

0:36:09.560 --> 0:36:09.960
<v Speaker 4>What now.

0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:11.960
<v Speaker 1>My pro tip of the day is this, let's go

0:36:12.600 --> 0:36:16.000
<v Speaker 1>in particular and you know what, deadly, precise and above

0:36:16.080 --> 0:36:16.799
<v Speaker 1>all surprises.

0:36:18.120 --> 0:36:19.120
<v Speaker 2>And by the way, it's

0:36:22.760 --> 0:36:28.120
<v Speaker 4>Oh girl, baby girl, Great Friday Mother, Armstrong and Geddy
