WEBVTT - Poked & Pinched 

0:00:03.640 --> 0:00:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:08.000 --> 0:00:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong Show, Katty.

0:00:11.960 --> 0:00:25.919
<v Speaker 2>Armstrong and Jetty and He Armstrong and Yetty. So I

0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:27.000
<v Speaker 2>got hit hard with.

0:00:27.000 --> 0:00:32.120
<v Speaker 1>The rotavirus Tuesday night. Google it or chat gpt it.

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:34.919
<v Speaker 1>It's going around the country, particularly northern California. But there's

0:00:34.960 --> 0:00:37.600
<v Speaker 1>hot spots all around the country. It's a stomach thing

0:00:37.760 --> 0:00:39.360
<v Speaker 1>hits you all of a sudden. Man, it did me.

0:00:39.440 --> 0:00:42.240
<v Speaker 1>It's like I went from perfectly fine to good God,

0:00:42.360 --> 0:00:46.479
<v Speaker 1>what's wrong with me? Like immediately, Wow, I thought I

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 1>was gonna vomit or whatever. Anyway, So I slept all

0:00:49.680 --> 0:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>day Wednesday and much of the day yesterday, and consequently

0:00:53.840 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't sleep at all last night, not a single minute.

0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Oh my, I've only done a few times in my life.

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:04.040
<v Speaker 1>But I didn't sleep a single minute, and like wasn't

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:09.000
<v Speaker 1>even close. I just wasn't tired. Anyway. At some point

0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>during the night, I decided, for who knows what reason,

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:17.040
<v Speaker 1>to watch Woody Allen's Annie Hall. Wow, and uh, that's crazy.

0:01:17.120 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 3>I thought of that movie the other day. Did something happen?

0:01:20.840 --> 0:01:24.399
<v Speaker 1>Could be maybe maybe we both were struck by something

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 1>that caused us to think about it. But something I

0:01:27.600 --> 0:01:29.039
<v Speaker 1>wanted to say about that, but we'll have to do

0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 1>that after Clipso.

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 3>Okay, let's take a fond look back of the week

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.000
<v Speaker 3>that was. It's the beloved Friday tradition, cow clips of

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:42.800
<v Speaker 3>the week. He's in mixed signals only deal to end

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 3>the war with a RAM.

0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:47.119
<v Speaker 4>Look what President Trump has done here is create an

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:49.920
<v Speaker 4>unbearable situation for the Iranian regime.

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 5>Oman will behave just like everybody else that will have

0:01:54.200 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 5>to blow them up.

0:01:55.480 --> 0:01:56.960
<v Speaker 1>I understand that they'll be fine.

0:01:58.080 --> 0:02:00.240
<v Speaker 6>And here today we are starting to see the situation

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:04.880
<v Speaker 6>simmering down, with neither side indicating the ceasefire is faltering.

0:02:06.000 --> 0:02:09.799
<v Speaker 3>Tax one hundred percent anyone from California that receives any

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:13.480
<v Speaker 3>of those funds we want to tax one hundred percent.

0:02:14.360 --> 0:02:17.320
<v Speaker 3>California is actually the worst managed state in the Union.

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:18.600
<v Speaker 3>I would never invest there.

0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:22.839
<v Speaker 4>The consequences for zombie people, they don't have them.

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:26.919
<v Speaker 3>It's like anarchy. It's like it's psycho these people.

0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 4>When I unplug them and they're all going to Seattle

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:31.160
<v Speaker 4>where the mayor will welcome them.

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 1>We will focus on the worst landlords in New York City.

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:38.079
<v Speaker 7>We will work to transfer ownership to responsible stewards.

0:02:39.120 --> 0:02:42.200
<v Speaker 1>Five police officers were injured after official say an eighteen

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:46.040
<v Speaker 1>year old driver plowed into a crowd. We believe that

0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.040
<v Speaker 1>we can arrest our way towards safety.

0:02:48.080 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 8>We're rome Ken Paxton is the most corrupt politician in America.

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:56.280
<v Speaker 6>I mean he's a vegan who thinks God is non

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.359
<v Speaker 6>binary and that there's actually six biological sexes.

0:03:00.400 --> 0:03:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Here we see the US Secretary of Health and Human

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Services wrangling and removing a pair of black racer snakes

0:03:06.919 --> 0:03:11.200
<v Speaker 1>from doctor Oza's patio. The FBI is seizing three hundred

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 1>gold bars, along with two million dollars in cash and

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>thirty five luxury watches from the Virginia home of David Rush. Stunningly,

0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:22.840
<v Speaker 1>driver Katie Thomas houlds up her right arm, revealing she

0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:24.200
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have her right hands.

0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 3>So you want to just call this a day, I

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:33.160
<v Speaker 3>don't want to call it a handhole. You have a

0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:36.120
<v Speaker 3>dirty mouth, but it's constant with this. This is what

0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:36.760
<v Speaker 3>these people do.

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 1>The bitch, Nazi bitch, that's what you are.

0:03:40.720 --> 0:03:41.040
<v Speaker 2>My health.

0:03:41.120 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 3>I'll make your crudalis ongr whatever you want. Oh, you

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:47.880
<v Speaker 3>have a book, well as what happened, I don't know

0:03:47.960 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 3>what happened. I mean when I as I watched it,

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 3>I thought, oh my god, he's having a stroke.

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 1>It's clips of the week.

0:03:57.120 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 3>I'm telling you. Britney Spears offers to make me a

0:04:00.120 --> 0:04:04.160
<v Speaker 3>lasagna and go swimming. I'm in hard to say no to.

0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:07.120
<v Speaker 1>We got a text. I'll bet she puts peas in

0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 1>her lasagna. I don't know if that's a thing, but

0:04:10.560 --> 0:04:12.960
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know somebody who made great lasagna but insisted

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:14.840
<v Speaker 1>on having olives in it. And it's the only time

0:04:14.880 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 1>I'd ever had olives in it. Oh, I didn't dig

0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.599
<v Speaker 1>it at all, but I could see olives. You didn't

0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:20.440
<v Speaker 1>dig it, pick them out?

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:22.719
<v Speaker 3>No, it just seems olives are an Italian thing, and

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 3>peas just seems out of left field to me.

0:04:25.720 --> 0:04:27.240
<v Speaker 1>And then that one story, if you didn't hear it,

0:04:27.360 --> 0:04:29.520
<v Speaker 1>is a woman got pulled over by the cops for

0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.719
<v Speaker 1>the stupid ticket of having a cell phone in your hand.

0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 1>But anyway, the cops said, I saw it in your

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:37.320
<v Speaker 1>right hand. Oh yeah, I don't have a hand. Juled,

0:04:39.480 --> 0:04:40.279
<v Speaker 1>that's a good one.

0:04:40.560 --> 0:04:44.640
<v Speaker 3>He gave her the ticket anyway, until the police department

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:51.240
<v Speaker 3>was so ridiculed that they said never mind. Oh boy, So.

0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:53.520
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever seen Annie Hall. I don't know if

0:04:53.600 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 1>y'all have a Woody Allen movie. One best picture I

0:04:56.160 --> 0:05:00.760
<v Speaker 1>think the year it came out Oscar. It's a fantastic movie. God,

0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.080
<v Speaker 1>I watched I probably watched half of it last night.

0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>It is brilliant. It's brilliant now. I can't imagine how

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:09.240
<v Speaker 1>brilliant it was for its time because it was so

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 1>different than anything that I'd ever been Anyway, what he

0:05:13.240 --> 0:05:16.880
<v Speaker 1>comes on there at the very beginning and the opening

0:05:17.520 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 1>and says, there's an old joke where this old woman

0:05:20.640 --> 0:05:23.239
<v Speaker 1>is at a restaurant and she said, God, this food

0:05:23.360 --> 0:05:27.919
<v Speaker 1>is terrible and the portions are so small. And he said,

0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.120
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of like life. I mean, you spend all

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.160
<v Speaker 1>your time in misery and struggle and work and worry

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:37.320
<v Speaker 1>and it goes by too fast, which is a very

0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 1>similar sort of thing. And for whatever reason, watching the

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:45.120
<v Speaker 1>movie got me thinking about reading his memoir. Apropos of

0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:48.279
<v Speaker 1>Nothing I believe is his memoir by Woody Allen. It's

0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:52.039
<v Speaker 1>really great if you have any interest in Woody Allen,

0:05:52.320 --> 0:05:55.880
<v Speaker 1>or really just movies and show business, because he started

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:58.360
<v Speaker 1>out as a stand up comedian way way way back.

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.640
<v Speaker 1>In the day of early television and then became a

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 1>famous director, and he knows everybody famous that's ever existed.

0:06:04.360 --> 0:06:06.320
<v Speaker 1>One of the interesting things about him is he's a

0:06:06.360 --> 0:06:09.720
<v Speaker 1>hardcore atheist. He's a real big none of this matters,

0:06:09.760 --> 0:06:11.520
<v Speaker 1>and when you're dead, you're dead, and it's all just

0:06:11.800 --> 0:06:16.680
<v Speaker 1>an accident of you know, science that are smart being existed,

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:20.680
<v Speaker 1>and his movies mean nothing ultimately, and nobody will remember

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:23.040
<v Speaker 1>him and that sort of thing, and he's fine with that,

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.760
<v Speaker 1>and I just I think it's it's interesting to go

0:06:26.800 --> 0:06:29.359
<v Speaker 1>about trying to enjoy life when you've got the mindset

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:33.280
<v Speaker 1>of he's got. He never goes to award shows. He

0:06:33.600 --> 0:06:35.720
<v Speaker 1>doesn't receive it, he doesn't go pick up awards. If

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>he's nominated, he doesn't watch them. He doesn't care if

0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 1>he wins or loses. He's never seen any of his movies.

0:06:41.920 --> 0:06:43.680
<v Speaker 1>He works, he directs them, and everything like that, he

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>doesn't watch them. He just he has no interest in

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:50.080
<v Speaker 1>any of that sort of stuff. He said, like, there's

0:06:50.120 --> 0:06:52.719
<v Speaker 1>usually a ballgame on opposite the oscars. I'd much rather

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:56.159
<v Speaker 1>watch that, And and I just I think that's an

0:06:56.200 --> 0:06:59.159
<v Speaker 1>interesting I admire that in some ways, but I can't

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.080
<v Speaker 1>figure out where you get your happiness. His happiness is

0:07:02.320 --> 0:07:05.440
<v Speaker 1>just in his work. He likes creating art, but he

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:08.160
<v Speaker 1>only likes creating it. He has no interest in what

0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 1>other people think of it. He doesn't read reviews, you know,

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 1>all the things they said, he doesn't watch them.

0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:14.520
<v Speaker 3>But he doesn't even watch them. I mean, that's that's

0:07:14.560 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 3>where it crosses the line. In the crazy ones.

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.480
<v Speaker 1>Well, to me, you'd have to see it enough. You'd

0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:20.560
<v Speaker 1>see a lot by in the editing process. I mean,

0:07:20.560 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 1>he's the director and so you'd see a lot of it.

0:07:24.240 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 1>But he doesn't ever, you know, sit down and watch

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:28.720
<v Speaker 1>the whole movie end to end, or ever want to

0:07:28.720 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>see it again or read a review, or cares what

0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.600
<v Speaker 1>anybody thinks of it. It just does it and moves on.

0:07:35.640 --> 0:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>And I just on one end, I wish I could

0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:39.840
<v Speaker 1>live my life that way, with a lot of different things.

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:41.200
<v Speaker 1>On the other end, I don't know where you get

0:07:41.240 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 1>your joy.

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 3>I guess it's a joy going out going out for

0:07:45.080 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 3>dinner in Manhattan with friends and having a lively conversation.

0:07:49.240 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 1>He goes to the same restaurant and orders the same

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:55.000
<v Speaker 1>thing every night and has for like sixty years, which

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.840
<v Speaker 1>is interesting. I could do that that I could keep

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:01.040
<v Speaker 1>that I related and now you know, I figure a

0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.560
<v Speaker 1>Woody Allen Hayter. You say, and then you, you know,

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 1>marry your child, start sexing up your child, which is inaccurate.

0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 3>I believe that to be true. Yes, what you just said,

0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:13.360
<v Speaker 3>speaking of New York City, I thought this was so good.

0:08:13.480 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't know Josh Barrow, the writer is vaguely familiar,

0:08:16.600 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 3>but he pointed out the other day that if you

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 3>wonder why hotels in New York are so expensive, this

0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 3>is why, as he said, do you know what rents are?

0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:30.600
<v Speaker 3>Not you you like rent an apartment, but rent seeking.

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:35.720
<v Speaker 3>It's a term economist's use, meaning you manipulate the government

0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:39.560
<v Speaker 3>into doing you a favor or passing a regulation that

0:08:39.600 --> 0:08:43.960
<v Speaker 3>benefits you, and the financial gain you get from that

0:08:44.200 --> 0:08:47.720
<v Speaker 3>is called rent by economists. Why I don't know, but

0:08:47.880 --> 0:08:51.840
<v Speaker 3>mister Barrow points out the hotel union and the hotel

0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:56.199
<v Speaker 3>owners worked together to get the city to ban new hotels.

0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:00.720
<v Speaker 3>Hotel rates soared, and now labor and capital dividing up

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:03.880
<v Speaker 3>the rents collected. And it's connected to the headline from

0:09:03.880 --> 0:09:05.920
<v Speaker 3>the New York Times the average pay of housekeepers in

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.240
<v Speaker 3>New York City hotels will increase to more than one

0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.960
<v Speaker 3>hundred thousand dollars a year as part of a contract

0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:14.520
<v Speaker 3>settlement between an industry trade group and a powerful union.

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 3>And that's the way rent seeking works. You cook up

0:09:21.520 --> 0:09:25.400
<v Speaker 3>some flimsy excuse to limit any competition so you can

0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 3>jack up your rates, and then the union says, hey,

0:09:27.559 --> 0:09:29.199
<v Speaker 3>we want our cut, and you say that's cool. That's

0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:32.280
<v Speaker 3>fine because we're making much higher profits now. And who

0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:36.480
<v Speaker 3>suffers the customers in the citizens. What's so brilliant about

0:09:36.520 --> 0:09:38.599
<v Speaker 3>these unions is that they then put you in the

0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 3>unfortunate position of arguing that housekeepers should be paid less

0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 3>than like software engineers. Then someone yells at you that

0:09:45.200 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 3>there's no such thing as unskilled labor. Then you just

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:51.439
<v Speaker 3>throw up your hands and say, fine, let's abandon capitalism. Fine,

0:09:51.800 --> 0:09:54.120
<v Speaker 3>twenty five hundred dollars for two full beds on the

0:09:54.120 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 3>smoking floor of a Times Square Marriot. Okay, super yeah, Yeah,

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:06.839
<v Speaker 3>they're actually dovetailing off the huge new deal. The Long

0:10:06.880 --> 0:10:16.079
<v Speaker 3>Island Railroad got public employee union monopoly on service, no competition,

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.800
<v Speaker 3>union lawyers on both sides of the bargaining table. It's

0:10:19.880 --> 0:10:22.440
<v Speaker 3>oh well, So getting.

0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.080
<v Speaker 1>Back to the idea of trying to be happy with

0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:25.920
<v Speaker 1>what you do or whatever, or just trying to be

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 1>happy in general. Do you ever listen You made several

0:10:28.520 --> 0:10:30.640
<v Speaker 1>albums with your band, do you ever listen to them?

0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:31.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:32.040
<v Speaker 1>Sure you do.

0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and you get in that oh yeah, yeah. I

0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:37.240
<v Speaker 3>mean I can't do it too much or they just

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 3>kind of worn out. But yeah, I don't think had pleasure

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:42.599
<v Speaker 3>from it.

0:10:42.960 --> 0:10:44.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:45.760
<v Speaker 3>Just no.

0:10:46.040 --> 0:10:48.720
<v Speaker 1>It's interesting to me that like only enjoying the process

0:10:48.760 --> 0:10:49.240
<v Speaker 1>of things.

0:10:50.080 --> 0:10:54.320
<v Speaker 3>I know Tom Petty has said that he never listens

0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 3>to the stuff when it's done.

0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:58.679
<v Speaker 1>I wonder if people who are really great at stuff

0:10:58.720 --> 0:11:02.120
<v Speaker 1>because I've said this before, but the great one, maybe

0:11:02.160 --> 0:11:04.400
<v Speaker 1>the greatest college basketball coach of all time, Bobby Knight,

0:11:04.400 --> 0:11:06.520
<v Speaker 1>maybe the greatest basketball coach of all time. Bobby Knight.

0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:12.560
<v Speaker 1>He was asked after retired and everything like that, you know,

0:11:12.600 --> 0:11:14.760
<v Speaker 1>if he could relive something or whatever, and he said,

0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:17.280
<v Speaker 1>if I it's not the winning the championship or whatever,

0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.360
<v Speaker 1>it's the process. That's what I like. If I could

0:11:19.400 --> 0:11:22.120
<v Speaker 1>do anything again, it would be in a dark gym,

0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:25.240
<v Speaker 1>me alone with some guys getting better. That's what I liked.

0:11:25.600 --> 0:11:26.040
<v Speaker 3>The winning.

0:11:26.080 --> 0:11:27.880
<v Speaker 1>It is just you know what comes at the end

0:11:27.880 --> 0:11:30.520
<v Speaker 1>of that. But it's the process. And I wonder if

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 1>that's how you get really really good at stuff, is

0:11:33.520 --> 0:11:36.440
<v Speaker 1>that you enjoy the process so much like Larry Bird

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:39.920
<v Speaker 1>and Kobe Bryant or whoever else or already great, but

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 1>get to the gym six hours before everybody else can shoot.

0:11:43.720 --> 0:11:47.640
<v Speaker 3>Right. That's absolutely true, one hundred percent true. I've seen

0:11:47.640 --> 0:11:51.360
<v Speaker 3>that in the number of different realms a human activities.

0:11:51.559 --> 0:11:53.319
<v Speaker 3>Number one. If I could be like a Tom Petty

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:55.480
<v Speaker 3>and be constantly working on new stuff, I wouldn't listen

0:11:55.480 --> 0:11:57.280
<v Speaker 3>to the old stuff much either. I'd be too busy,

0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:00.200
<v Speaker 3>but I just don't have time. I've seen it in

0:12:00.200 --> 0:12:04.320
<v Speaker 3>in golf, especially because they're like my son was super

0:12:04.360 --> 0:12:08.199
<v Speaker 3>talented golfer, but he had no interest in grinding, in practicing,

0:12:08.360 --> 0:12:10.400
<v Speaker 3>in working on his game, which is fine, you don't

0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:14.520
<v Speaker 3>have to. And there are other kids that were contemporaries

0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:18.400
<v Speaker 3>to his that just loved being on the range, loved

0:12:18.440 --> 0:12:21.320
<v Speaker 3>working on their swings, and they're the ones who really

0:12:21.320 --> 0:12:21.960
<v Speaker 3>excelled at it.

0:12:22.240 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 1>So, yeah, that's an interesting philosophy.

0:12:26.800 --> 0:12:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Hmmm.

0:12:28.520 --> 0:12:31.320
<v Speaker 1>Uh the not. It's like I've I've I don't I

0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:37.360
<v Speaker 1>haven't listened to our radio show really much, and I

0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:39.960
<v Speaker 1>don't know that I ever will. Ever when it's over,

0:12:40.040 --> 0:12:41.839
<v Speaker 1>someday we'll go back and listen to it.

0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:47.320
<v Speaker 3>You either, No, including when we're doing it. No, Yeah,

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 3>that's that's yeah. Yeah. I do sometimes just to remind

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:57.160
<v Speaker 3>myself to avoid certain, you know, pitfalls, but not very

0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:59.840
<v Speaker 3>often because all I can hear of the flaws makes

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:00.559
<v Speaker 3>me saying.

0:13:00.840 --> 0:13:02.880
<v Speaker 1>You think you will like years from now, I want

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:03.719
<v Speaker 1>to listen to it.

0:13:04.360 --> 0:13:08.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, probably a little bit, I wonder, although for God's sake,

0:13:08.800 --> 0:13:14.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't will we still be doing it? Lady, Ah

0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:18.720
<v Speaker 3>tell you what, seventy year olds these days, they just

0:13:18.880 --> 0:13:20.400
<v Speaker 3>don't know what they're talking about.

0:13:20.520 --> 0:13:22.040
<v Speaker 1>President Baron Trump.

0:13:25.040 --> 0:13:27.760
<v Speaker 3>He's just like his old man. You don't remember him.

0:13:27.800 --> 0:13:28.600
<v Speaker 3>It was funny days.

0:13:29.559 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 5>You made it right, utters running.

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:35.679
<v Speaker 1>Along, tid that's what I'll sound like. We got more

0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:38.920
<v Speaker 1>of the way, stay here, Armstrong, Heyetty.

0:13:44.640 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 5>Apparently there's a TikTok trend going around that's popular in Utah.

0:13:48.960 --> 0:13:51.560
<v Speaker 5>First time he makes that choice, he sits on the couch,

0:13:51.760 --> 0:13:57.280
<v Speaker 5>The couch lag breaks and he goes flying and it's

0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:01.800
<v Speaker 5>a horrible, horrible accident. Doctor and nurses told us that

0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.760
<v Speaker 5>this is the third case they've seen of CouchSurfing here

0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:10.240
<v Speaker 5>at Primary Children's. This terrible accident happened, and it's one

0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 5>more thing to talk to your kids about.

0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:16.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, it's a TikTok trend, like these things become, and

0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 1>this one what they're strapping couches behind cars and pulling

0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 1>them down the street and riding them for fun.

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:28.440
<v Speaker 3>I appreciate the term CouchSurfing, as it's double meaning is clear.

0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 3>I would suggest to that person drowning into their phone,

0:14:33.080 --> 0:14:38.320
<v Speaker 3>you don't caution your child against doing every single incredibly

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:44.120
<v Speaker 3>stupid thing separately. You kind of make a blanket lesson

0:14:44.160 --> 0:14:48.040
<v Speaker 3>out of don't do things that are incredibly stupid and dangerous.

0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Speaking of, so, you told me not to jump on

0:14:52.080 --> 0:14:54.520
<v Speaker 3>a couch being pulled down the street at a high speed,

0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:57.640
<v Speaker 3>but you never said about anything about an easy chair.

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:02.720
<v Speaker 3>So I did it, and your stupid ottoman strapped to

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:06.920
<v Speaker 3>the wing of a plane. So exactly.

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:12.440
<v Speaker 1>We talked about this story at the time the sentencing

0:15:12.520 --> 0:15:18.320
<v Speaker 1>came down yesterday the Los Gaidos party. Mom, what a

0:15:18.560 --> 0:15:19.720
<v Speaker 1>story do you remember?

0:15:19.920 --> 0:15:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, vaguely.

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Got teens drunk, pressured them to have sex. Got the

0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>maximum prison sentence yesterday. She is as kooky as anybody's

0:15:29.760 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 1>ever been, particularly unique kind of crazy. You know, you

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:38.040
<v Speaker 1>got the the weird teachers who want to sex up

0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:41.400
<v Speaker 1>young guys and relive there. I don't know what this

0:15:41.480 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 1>woman was doing. She's fifty two years old. She was

0:15:43.800 --> 0:15:47.200
<v Speaker 1>sentenced to thirty five years and ten months, so she's

0:15:47.200 --> 0:15:48.640
<v Speaker 1>going to spend the rest of her life in jail

0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:53.360
<v Speaker 1>for hosting alcohol fueled teen parties and orchestrating sexual encounters

0:15:53.360 --> 0:15:59.280
<v Speaker 1>among miners during the pandemic. And these were kid kids

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:03.440
<v Speaker 1>ages thirteen to fifteen, so it wasn't even like sixteen

0:16:03.480 --> 0:16:06.920
<v Speaker 1>to eighteen. Thirteen year old and she would say, if.

0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:09.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm seventeen, you wouldn't have had to pressure me very much.

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.480
<v Speaker 3>But thirteen to fifteen year old sets just perverse.

0:16:13.600 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 1>Guilty of forty eight charges, including sexual penetration of an

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:21.480
<v Speaker 1>intoxicated victim, influencing a child to engage in sexual activity

0:16:21.480 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 1>with another child, providing alcohol to a minor, annoying or

0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:29.680
<v Speaker 1>molesting a child, annoying, and attempting to swaye a witness

0:16:29.720 --> 0:16:33.720
<v Speaker 1>from reporting a crime. I'll drop the annoying and just

0:16:34.120 --> 0:16:35.880
<v Speaker 1>keep you in there for all the other horrible stuff.

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:38.200
<v Speaker 3>If annoying people who were a crime, I'd be wearing

0:16:38.240 --> 0:16:41.440
<v Speaker 3>an orange jumpsuit right now. Let's be serious.

0:16:41.840 --> 0:16:45.400
<v Speaker 1>She provided vodka, fireball, whiskey beer, and hard seltzers to

0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:49.080
<v Speaker 1>party attendees, mostly thirteen to fifteen, gave them condoms, and

0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.720
<v Speaker 1>encouraged them to gauge in sexual activity while intoxicated. It

0:16:52.760 --> 0:16:54.600
<v Speaker 1>is kind of like people who don't bump fights, but

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:58.080
<v Speaker 1>she was doing sex. She'd get them so hammered they're

0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:01.800
<v Speaker 1>vomiting and passed out, and like convince them to have

0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:03.280
<v Speaker 1>sex when they're too drunk to even know.

0:17:03.240 --> 0:17:06.159
<v Speaker 3>What the hell was going on. What a sicko. I know.

0:17:07.520 --> 0:17:08.320
<v Speaker 1>Craziness.

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:11.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Seattle's crumbling coming up in a moment or two.

0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:26.600
<v Speaker 3>And the worst chant ever Armstrong and Geeddy, that is

0:17:26.680 --> 0:17:30.760
<v Speaker 3>the antifa types and far leftists and would be Marxist

0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:34.680
<v Speaker 3>revolutionaries who have moved their camp to New Jersey now

0:17:35.080 --> 0:17:38.560
<v Speaker 3>and are demonstrating and blocking and committing acts of violence

0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:43.119
<v Speaker 3>outside and Immigration center. Were they in New Jersey? Every cop,

0:17:43.280 --> 0:17:48.040
<v Speaker 3>every fed, shoot yourself in the head, all right, Marcus

0:17:48.200 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 3>Espinosa reporting this has been escalating all week.

0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:56.200
<v Speaker 6>Thursday night, in fact, got tense, extremely quickly. Protesters using

0:17:56.280 --> 0:17:59.920
<v Speaker 6>trash cans, umbrellas, and makeshift shields trying to block view

0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:02.040
<v Speaker 6>from entering and leaving the.

0:18:01.960 --> 0:18:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Facility, and then they played the chanting We'll skip that,

0:18:06.160 --> 0:18:07.359
<v Speaker 3>Michael and go to the next clip.

0:18:07.560 --> 0:18:12.119
<v Speaker 6>Advocates, family members, and Democratic lawmakers say detainees have reported

0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:16.520
<v Speaker 6>spoiled food, limited medical care, and an ongoing hunger strike,

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:20.920
<v Speaker 6>but DHS strongly dispus those claims, the agency posting on

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:24.680
<v Speaker 6>social media that detainees are having all their needs met,

0:18:24.760 --> 0:18:28.879
<v Speaker 6>with Homeland Security Secretary Mark Wayne Mullin stating health officials

0:18:28.920 --> 0:18:33.639
<v Speaker 6>were allowed to inspect that food service and its operations Thursday,

0:18:33.880 --> 0:18:37.560
<v Speaker 6>but those assurances aren't satisfying enough for everyone out here.

0:18:38.240 --> 0:18:41.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to give people spoiled food, but how

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:43.480
<v Speaker 1>good is the food supposed to be? And when I

0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.359
<v Speaker 1>sneak into your country and you catch me, how good

0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:47.119
<v Speaker 1>is it supposed to be?

0:18:48.080 --> 0:18:50.119
<v Speaker 3>We had the talk, a tough talk in Mark Wayne

0:18:50.200 --> 0:18:52.000
<v Speaker 3>audio yesterday. I thought we had it today, but he

0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 3>is saying, look, we're not running the holiday in here.

0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:56.560
<v Speaker 3>These people are getting three meals a day in medical

0:18:56.600 --> 0:19:00.200
<v Speaker 3>care and fresh water, fresh clean water. It's fine to

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:02.560
<v Speaker 3>agree let's end with this final clip.

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Hello, Hoda dead, put you my boy. I have your face. Mother,

0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:16.920
<v Speaker 1>You're dead, boy.

0:19:17.680 --> 0:19:21.040
<v Speaker 3>That's one of the Marxist protesters. Kill your whole family.

0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:23.560
<v Speaker 3>I have your face. You're dead. I'm going to kill

0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:28.920
<v Speaker 3>them all. You're dead. Right there you go. That's your

0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:34.040
<v Speaker 3>leftist politics. And Antifa doesn't exist, by the way, remember that, hey, cut.

0:19:34.480 --> 0:19:37.600
<v Speaker 1>There isn't is there? Anybody? Wouldn't be very many people

0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:40.719
<v Speaker 1>that are. Look, I believe in having borders. You have

0:19:40.760 --> 0:19:43.760
<v Speaker 1>to have borders. Legal immigration is wrong. It drives down wages.

0:19:43.800 --> 0:19:46.719
<v Speaker 1>But I'm out here protesting because we're not treating them

0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:50.600
<v Speaker 1>well enough. Most of the hardcore protesters out there want

0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:55.239
<v Speaker 1>open borders, right, and this is a good reason too.

0:19:56.560 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 1>It gives them, It gives them.

0:19:58.440 --> 0:20:02.879
<v Speaker 3>Cover for that right exactly. Yeah, it's the hook. Meanwhile,

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:06.520
<v Speaker 3>on the other coast in Seattle, great report here.

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.840
<v Speaker 9>Now it was obvious from the get go, the moment

0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:14.879
<v Speaker 9>that the former public transit activists announced her candidacy for mayor,

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.640
<v Speaker 9>that Katie Wilson would be a living nightmare for Seattle.

0:20:18.840 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 9>And now the crime is so bad that the police

0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:24.679
<v Speaker 9>union is even taking honor in confidence that city is

0:20:24.760 --> 0:20:37.760
<v Speaker 9>now giving us scenes like this. Residents are fed up

0:20:37.800 --> 0:20:40.040
<v Speaker 9>and they know that as long as Katie Wilson is

0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:41.400
<v Speaker 9>in charge, the city is not going.

0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 1>To help them.

0:20:41.840 --> 0:20:44.199
<v Speaker 9>They've been abandoned. So they're taking their safety into their

0:20:44.200 --> 0:20:48.119
<v Speaker 9>own hands, and they're building makeshift barricades, large metal planter

0:20:48.160 --> 0:20:50.880
<v Speaker 9>boxes filled with dirt and gravel, trying to block off

0:20:50.920 --> 0:20:55.200
<v Speaker 9>residential streets near one of Seattle's busiest and most dangerous areas,

0:20:55.359 --> 0:20:56.480
<v Speaker 9>Aurora Ave North.

0:20:56.720 --> 0:20:59.920
<v Speaker 1>It's terrifying to live here, and it's even more terrifying

0:21:00.119 --> 0:21:04.119
<v Speaker 1>that the city is absolutely doing nothing to protect the

0:21:04.160 --> 0:21:07.000
<v Speaker 1>citizens in this neighborhood. We're just afraid that somebody that

0:21:07.080 --> 0:21:09.720
<v Speaker 1>a neighbor's going to have to die before the city

0:21:09.720 --> 0:21:10.320
<v Speaker 1>will do something.

0:21:11.080 --> 0:21:15.159
<v Speaker 3>Why love the detail that they're actually and those are obviously,

0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:19.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, sane, reasonable people. They're building themselves military style

0:21:19.680 --> 0:21:23.640
<v Speaker 3>barricades so that vehicles can't keep on can can't come

0:21:23.640 --> 0:21:26.959
<v Speaker 3>on their streets, I've seen because thugs and shooters on

0:21:27.080 --> 0:21:31.520
<v Speaker 3>foot are bad enough, but we gotta they're blocking off

0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:36.280
<v Speaker 3>their streets. That's not a thing in America.

0:21:36.400 --> 0:21:38.719
<v Speaker 1>If we're happening on the Battle, if it were happening

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:40.800
<v Speaker 1>on the East Coast, it would give tons of attention,

0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:43.159
<v Speaker 1>but it doesn't because it's the West Coast, you know.

0:21:43.240 --> 0:21:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead and run our old buddy, Jason Rantz there, Michael.

0:21:46.119 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 4>You've got a bunch of neighbors who are sick and

0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:51.160
<v Speaker 4>tired of almost one hundred separate shootings over the course

0:21:51.200 --> 0:21:55.480
<v Speaker 4>of the last couple years, open air, drug use, prostitution everywhere,

0:21:55.560 --> 0:21:57.920
<v Speaker 4>homelessness everywhere, and now they're saying, Okay, we're going to

0:21:57.960 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 4>put up these barriers. The problem is city has already

0:21:59.880 --> 0:22:01.880
<v Speaker 4>say they're going to take the barriers down, and they're

0:22:01.920 --> 0:22:04.399
<v Speaker 4>not going to do anything different. They'll throw out some

0:22:04.440 --> 0:22:06.320
<v Speaker 4>press release that says, hey, we're going to have some

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:09.800
<v Speaker 4>more police actions, some more proactive policing the neighborhood.

0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:11.439
<v Speaker 3>The problem is you don't have enough cops to do that.

0:22:11.520 --> 0:22:14.199
<v Speaker 4>We have just a little under nine hundred officers for

0:22:14.240 --> 0:22:16.440
<v Speaker 4>the entire city of Seattle in a city that needs

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:19.240
<v Speaker 4>about sixteen hundred, so they can do any kind of

0:22:19.320 --> 0:22:21.680
<v Speaker 4>enforcement for maybe a day or two. But you're just

0:22:21.760 --> 0:22:24.040
<v Speaker 4>leaving another neighborhood vulnerable. So we'll just have one of

0:22:24.040 --> 0:22:25.640
<v Speaker 4>these stories somewhere else.

0:22:27.240 --> 0:22:30.160
<v Speaker 1>I remember the first time I went to Seattle, going

0:22:30.200 --> 0:22:34.560
<v Speaker 1>on thirty years ago. H thank you gladys. That was

0:22:35.200 --> 0:22:40.560
<v Speaker 1>a cloudy day, so cool, so clean, so safe feeling,

0:22:40.600 --> 0:22:44.200
<v Speaker 1>and just so cool. It's like I remember saying similar

0:22:44.240 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 1>with Portland. Was the same way. They're like clean San

0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Francisco's they're all the cool of San Francisco but clean. Yeah,

0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:53.520
<v Speaker 1>that's when San Francisco is much cleaner than what it became.

0:22:53.560 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 1>But but that's you know what policy matters. As we

0:22:57.560 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 1>say over and over again.

0:22:59.000 --> 0:23:03.240
<v Speaker 3>It really does. Are fans of leftist train wrecks. This

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:07.600
<v Speaker 3>Katie Wilson has the potential to be, speaking of Seattle

0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:13.119
<v Speaker 3>like the Jimmy Hendrix of bad leftist mayors. She could

0:23:13.200 --> 0:23:17.720
<v Speaker 3>make Brandon Johnson of Chicago look like mayor Daily. I mean,

0:23:18.480 --> 0:23:21.320
<v Speaker 3>real potential. There bears watching, and I for one, I'm

0:23:21.359 --> 0:23:24.760
<v Speaker 3>looking forward to it. Sorry, friends in Seattle, truly for

0:23:24.840 --> 0:23:25.959
<v Speaker 3>what you must endure?

0:23:26.440 --> 0:23:32.239
<v Speaker 1>Yeahvable I wonder how long you man, they'll put up

0:23:32.240 --> 0:23:34.440
<v Speaker 1>with it. They were ready for another go around of

0:23:34.480 --> 0:23:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a socialist mayor communist mayor Marxist mayor.

0:23:37.960 --> 0:23:42.080
<v Speaker 3>So they don't they won't connect the terrible outcomes with

0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:47.800
<v Speaker 3>the policies. They'll blame capitalism or something. Once somebody's delusional

0:23:48.119 --> 0:23:51.800
<v Speaker 3>it becomes really hard to reel them back with facts

0:23:52.359 --> 0:23:56.200
<v Speaker 3>because they are by definition unable to process them.

0:23:56.560 --> 0:24:01.119
<v Speaker 1>Here's the challenge. There's the rub is Shakespeare might say, Oh,

0:24:01.160 --> 0:24:04.000
<v Speaker 1>I've been on a Shakespeare kick lately, really enjoying really.

0:24:04.200 --> 0:24:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh my son's going to be in Did I tell

0:24:06.080 --> 0:24:09.560
<v Speaker 3>you this? He's finally getting back to acting cool. I'm

0:24:09.600 --> 0:24:12.880
<v Speaker 3>shaking my head and rolling my ass. He's doing some

0:24:12.920 --> 0:24:13.959
<v Speaker 3>summer Shakespeare.

0:24:14.359 --> 0:24:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Ah awesome.

0:24:15.359 --> 0:24:19.520
<v Speaker 3>And he's he's got two parts in this play because

0:24:19.600 --> 0:24:24.840
<v Speaker 3>the first character, spoiler alert, doesn't live through the intermission.

0:24:24.880 --> 0:24:26.479
<v Speaker 3>He dies at the end of the first act, and

0:24:26.560 --> 0:24:28.720
<v Speaker 3>he plays a totally different character in the second half.

0:24:28.760 --> 0:24:31.360
<v Speaker 3>And he loves doing Shakespeare. But one of the reasons

0:24:31.400 --> 0:24:34.520
<v Speaker 3>he's so excited about this they're both very colorful characters

0:24:34.520 --> 0:24:37.800
<v Speaker 3>with some comedic stuff. But he gets to act out

0:24:37.840 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 3>his favorite stage direction. In all of Shakespeare, you have

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:45.440
<v Speaker 3>your lines right, and then you have your stage directions.

0:24:46.800 --> 0:24:53.040
<v Speaker 3>His favorite stage direction is exit pursued by bear, and

0:24:53.119 --> 0:24:54.800
<v Speaker 3>that's what his part does.

0:24:56.240 --> 0:24:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad that there are still places that put on

0:24:59.040 --> 0:25:02.639
<v Speaker 1>Shakespeare place. There are not universities where they still teach

0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:06.679
<v Speaker 1>Shakespeare in literature. I've been reading a lot about that lately,

0:25:06.760 --> 0:25:11.359
<v Speaker 1>and it's just amazing. If Shakespeare comes up, it's to

0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:12.760
<v Speaker 1>deconstruct it.

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:14.960
<v Speaker 3>On de colonize Shakespeare.

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was all white males and all that sort

0:25:19.160 --> 0:25:23.880
<v Speaker 1>of crap, but none about you know, it being by

0:25:23.920 --> 0:25:27.440
<v Speaker 1>most people's minds of the greatest writing of all time,

0:25:28.200 --> 0:25:31.320
<v Speaker 1>drama and comedy, that sort of stuff. But yeah, that's

0:25:31.359 --> 0:25:35.600
<v Speaker 1>a problem. What I'm glad they're still putting on the place. Yeah,

0:25:35.800 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 1>let's have a joke before we take a break. Can

0:25:39.480 --> 0:25:40.840
<v Speaker 1>I hear a joke? Number two?

0:25:40.880 --> 0:25:41.040
<v Speaker 3>There?

0:25:41.080 --> 0:25:44.000
<v Speaker 1>Michael? This is an old timey. All the late night

0:25:44.040 --> 0:25:47.159
<v Speaker 1>shows are on vacation right now. Uh so this is

0:25:47.200 --> 0:25:48.920
<v Speaker 1>seth Myers from I don't know when.

0:25:49.240 --> 0:25:52.399
<v Speaker 8>Expert supported this week. There's so much trash has accumulated

0:25:52.400 --> 0:25:54.840
<v Speaker 8>in Los Angeles they believe it could lead to a

0:25:54.880 --> 0:25:58.240
<v Speaker 8>spread of the bubonic plague. Said people in Los Angeles,

0:25:58.280 --> 0:26:01.680
<v Speaker 8>we are going to get so skinny.

0:26:04.640 --> 0:26:05.680
<v Speaker 3>That's a great joke.

0:26:06.240 --> 0:26:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Having just talked about the bubonic plague the other day,

0:26:11.160 --> 0:26:13.320
<v Speaker 1>how about the Jimmy fallon joke before we take a break.

0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:17.320
<v Speaker 10>Well, As the ongoing pilot shortage leads to more flight cancelations,

0:26:17.520 --> 0:26:20.480
<v Speaker 10>senators have introduced a new bill to raise the mandatory

0:26:20.560 --> 0:26:24.000
<v Speaker 10>retirement age for pilots. Yeah, that's who passengers want flying

0:26:24.040 --> 0:26:27.480
<v Speaker 10>their plane. A pilot who thought his best days were

0:26:27.480 --> 0:26:27.960
<v Speaker 10>behind him.

0:26:27.960 --> 0:26:30.000
<v Speaker 3>He's like, I'm back, I'm maverick.

0:26:30.119 --> 0:26:32.639
<v Speaker 10>Can you go to our own Yeah, you'll know the

0:26:32.640 --> 0:26:34.840
<v Speaker 10>pilot's older when he gets to sign gate B seven

0:26:34.880 --> 0:26:35.840
<v Speaker 10>and yeo's bingo, you.

0:26:35.840 --> 0:26:40.639
<v Speaker 3>Know, speaking of flying. Yeah, go ahead.

0:26:40.880 --> 0:26:42.760
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say, had a buddy who's a private pilot,

0:26:42.800 --> 0:26:46.880
<v Speaker 1>and he he keeps getting his salary doubled for them

0:26:46.880 --> 0:26:49.840
<v Speaker 1>to keep him because they're just art enough pilots out there.

0:26:50.200 --> 0:26:57.159
<v Speaker 3>Wow, damn it, I missed my calling of flying. Flight

0:26:57.200 --> 0:27:01.840
<v Speaker 3>attendants are united in asking us to stop doing this.

0:27:02.600 --> 0:27:06.000
<v Speaker 3>We'll tell you what this is, he says chivally. Click

0:27:06.160 --> 0:27:11.960
<v Speaker 3>right after the right after the break, stay with.

0:27:11.920 --> 0:27:21.640
<v Speaker 7>Us poorly head out for the weekend updates on both

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:27.199
<v Speaker 7>wars with some new information of Vladimir Zelensky, President of Ukraine,

0:27:27.280 --> 0:27:31.600
<v Speaker 7>just told CBS News that he sees Russia preparing a big,

0:27:31.840 --> 0:27:35.720
<v Speaker 7>massive attack using drones, cruise and ballistic missiles to take

0:27:35.720 --> 0:27:39.600
<v Speaker 7>place today or tomorrow night, with reports that large waves of.

0:27:39.560 --> 0:27:43.280
<v Speaker 1>One way attack drones have already been launched at Ukraine.

0:27:43.520 --> 0:27:48.080
<v Speaker 1>So wow, this might be practically a last ditch effort

0:27:48.160 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>by uh Putin as he's been losing in the last

0:27:51.560 --> 0:27:54.520
<v Speaker 1>couple of months. AnyWho, On the other war, the war

0:27:54.560 --> 0:27:58.159
<v Speaker 1>with war fighting against Iran, Donald Trump is having a

0:27:58.200 --> 0:28:00.560
<v Speaker 1>meeting right now in the White House sitch waiting room

0:28:00.600 --> 0:28:03.520
<v Speaker 1>to make a final determination on the whole US Iran

0:28:03.640 --> 0:28:06.200
<v Speaker 1>deal that we don't exactly know what the details are,

0:28:06.240 --> 0:28:09.679
<v Speaker 1>but so that might happen today. And then finally this

0:28:09.760 --> 0:28:14.480
<v Speaker 1>from the Financial Times. The director General of the IAEA,

0:28:14.600 --> 0:28:18.920
<v Speaker 1>that's your International Atomic Energy Agency, is talking about Kazakhstan

0:28:19.440 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>taking Iran's highly enriched uranium stockpiles. So that's what that

0:28:25.119 --> 0:28:25.760
<v Speaker 1>deal would be.

0:28:26.320 --> 0:28:28.600
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, Now, I got to get up to speed on

0:28:28.800 --> 0:28:35.720
<v Speaker 3>Kazakhstani politics. Its job, tell you what what I've had enough.

0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:37.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if that's a good I'd hear the

0:28:38.000 --> 0:28:42.880
<v Speaker 3>worst idea I've ever heard my life. Right, So, flight

0:28:42.920 --> 0:28:49.480
<v Speaker 3>attendant sets, your aerowaitresses are united in one request, nay demand,

0:28:50.200 --> 0:28:57.280
<v Speaker 3>please stop poking them. Evidently they say every single day

0:28:57.320 --> 0:28:59.840
<v Speaker 3>that happens. Somebody pokes them in the arm to get

0:28:59.880 --> 0:29:03.560
<v Speaker 3>the attention, or in the ribs or in the rear end,

0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:09.800
<v Speaker 3>and passengers evidently think that that's okay, and they interview

0:29:09.800 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 3>a bunch of this is Washington Post flight attendants. Who

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:14.680
<v Speaker 3>you talk to any flight attendant for any airline, they

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:16.920
<v Speaker 3>will all agree it's something that we cannot stand and

0:29:16.920 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 3>that we deal with soft and it's insane, says this

0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:21.800
<v Speaker 3>one gallow's has been pinched on. Oh, this is a

0:29:21.840 --> 0:29:25.320
<v Speaker 3>fellow who's been pinched on his butt multiple times.

0:29:25.360 --> 0:29:28.720
<v Speaker 1>What so I just take my glass once it's empty

0:29:28.720 --> 0:29:30.000
<v Speaker 1>with the ice cubes in it and shake it. Chick

0:29:30.120 --> 0:29:33.560
<v Speaker 1>chick check, Hello, honey.

0:29:32.680 --> 0:29:36.880
<v Speaker 3>Right, hey, help over he hey, sweetheie, or just you know,

0:29:38.040 --> 0:29:42.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, just I whistle? Well, what so.

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Difference between a poke and a tap? I mean.

0:29:50.080 --> 0:29:53.840
<v Speaker 3>No, don't touch them. Yes, many a parent has said

0:29:53.840 --> 0:29:58.080
<v Speaker 3>to many a toddler, use your words. So let me

0:29:58.080 --> 0:30:00.360
<v Speaker 3>read this to you. Flight attendants know you need them

0:30:00.360 --> 0:30:02.400
<v Speaker 3>for a drinker, snack, to toss your trash, to answer

0:30:02.480 --> 0:30:05.040
<v Speaker 3>a question, but they really really want you to communicate

0:30:05.080 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 3>your needs without using physical contact. It's a situation that

0:30:08.680 --> 0:30:11.840
<v Speaker 3>unfolds so unfrequently on planes that some cabin crews wear

0:30:11.920 --> 0:30:16.720
<v Speaker 3>patches lanyards are decorated aprons with no touching as a

0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:18.640
<v Speaker 3>plea on them, like they're.

0:30:18.440 --> 0:30:21.480
<v Speaker 1>A comfort dog in training.

0:30:22.200 --> 0:30:24.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. See, it's funny you well, you got to get

0:30:24.560 --> 0:30:26.720
<v Speaker 3>there touch. I would never touch a flight I don't

0:30:26.800 --> 0:30:28.760
<v Speaker 3>know that I have, but I might have.

0:30:28.920 --> 0:30:29.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:30:29.440 --> 0:30:32.960
<v Speaker 3>I've never really thought about it, yank on their sleeve

0:30:33.080 --> 0:30:33.720
<v Speaker 3>like a little kid.

0:30:34.360 --> 0:30:37.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't drink, so I don't ever. No, I don't.

0:30:37.720 --> 0:30:41.959
<v Speaker 1>I rarely like need anything beyond what they when they

0:30:41.960 --> 0:30:43.160
<v Speaker 1>come by and offer you something.

0:30:43.760 --> 0:30:46.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, says one head of rough flight.

0:30:46.320 --> 0:30:48.400
<v Speaker 1>If you can run your hand up, like up and down.

0:30:48.200 --> 0:30:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Their leg, that's okay. Yep. One head of a flight

0:30:51.560 --> 0:30:54.960
<v Speaker 3>attendancy union says, you probably wouldn't go into a restaurant

0:30:55.000 --> 0:30:57.520
<v Speaker 3>and poke your waitress. You wouldn't go into a coffee

0:30:57.520 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 3>shop and grab the shirt if you're restuff and they

0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:05.000
<v Speaker 3>go into the psychology. Why people think that's probably okay

0:31:05.040 --> 0:31:06.320
<v Speaker 3>they're in close cors.

0:31:07.440 --> 0:31:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because no, you wouldn't ever probably touch the waitress.

0:31:13.920 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 3>Here's a caption of like an Instagram or a TikTok Oh,

0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:21.880
<v Speaker 3>why did you do that? I hate you? All right,

0:31:22.280 --> 0:31:25.120
<v Speaker 3>dang it. The flight attendant passed my seat with a

0:31:25.200 --> 0:31:29.320
<v Speaker 3>drinks card and I thought she skipped our row. So

0:31:29.360 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 3>I touched her arm gently and said, sorry, when you

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:32.840
<v Speaker 3>get a chance, can I trouble you? But she cut

0:31:32.840 --> 0:31:34.760
<v Speaker 3>me off and said back to me loudly, do not

0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:37.680
<v Speaker 3>touch the flight attendants. Everybody turned to look. I know

0:31:37.760 --> 0:31:39.320
<v Speaker 3>she's right, and I shouldn't have tapped her, But now

0:31:39.320 --> 0:31:41.800
<v Speaker 3>my entire week is ruined and I'm spiraling and I

0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:45.280
<v Speaker 3>may never recover because interasctions like these haunt me for years.

0:31:45.840 --> 0:31:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Uh oh, I'm in a shame spiral.

0:31:48.840 --> 0:31:51.880
<v Speaker 3>I woke up in a shame spiral. It'll be fine,

0:31:53.800 --> 0:31:55.920
<v Speaker 3>that's funny. So don't poke the flight attendants.

0:31:56.040 --> 0:31:58.280
<v Speaker 1>Well as they eliminate for the born more of that

0:31:58.320 --> 0:32:00.400
<v Speaker 1>sort of stuff on a plane, that will be less.

0:32:00.680 --> 0:32:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Need to ever poke them, because they're not going to

0:32:02.400 --> 0:32:03.520
<v Speaker 1>give you anything.

0:32:03.880 --> 0:32:07.720
<v Speaker 3>Right, right, Just just sit perfectly still, staring forward. You

0:32:07.760 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 3>didn't pay extra for looking around, all right?

0:32:11.560 --> 0:32:14.600
<v Speaker 1>That's right. They'll have a little thing that holds your headsports.

0:32:14.640 --> 0:32:16.840
<v Speaker 1>You can't turn it if you want to look out

0:32:16.840 --> 0:32:18.680
<v Speaker 1>the window. That's an extra eighteen dollars.

0:32:18.800 --> 0:32:21.120
<v Speaker 3>Use me, I can't get the shade up. Yeah, there's

0:32:21.160 --> 0:32:23.160
<v Speaker 3>a charge for that. It's an eighteen dollars charge to

0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:23.920
<v Speaker 3>look out the window.

0:32:24.080 --> 0:32:25.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I got the shade up, but I can't turn

0:32:25.800 --> 0:32:27.920
<v Speaker 1>my head. Well that's a head turning fee and that's

0:32:27.960 --> 0:32:28.880
<v Speaker 1>twenty four dollars.

0:32:28.960 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh you want to look around? Do you right?

0:32:33.280 --> 0:32:35.920
<v Speaker 1>Your head's locked into this viic thing.

0:32:37.600 --> 0:32:42.080
<v Speaker 3>Man, Judy and I are. We're doing our big anniversary

0:32:42.080 --> 0:32:45.400
<v Speaker 3>cruise and it's a quote unquote international flight and it's

0:32:45.440 --> 0:32:47.440
<v Speaker 3>like a crack it dawn flight. We got to get

0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:49.920
<v Speaker 3>there in the middle of the night in theory to

0:32:50.040 --> 0:32:52.400
<v Speaker 3>check our luggage and our passports and stuff, and then

0:32:52.440 --> 0:32:53.880
<v Speaker 3>sit there in the airport.

0:32:53.480 --> 0:32:54.840
<v Speaker 1>For three hours fun.

0:32:54.920 --> 0:32:58.880
<v Speaker 3>It's ridunculous. I need to fly private. What does that cost? No?

0:32:59.400 --> 0:33:08.880
<v Speaker 3>Never mind? You know Jack Cornshungan.

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:11.920
<v Speaker 5>Do get final.

0:33:13.960 --> 0:33:15.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh it's haunting.

0:33:15.560 --> 0:33:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

0:33:18.360 --> 0:33:20.240
<v Speaker 3>Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:21.720
<v Speaker 3>to wrap up the day and the show. And the

0:33:21.720 --> 0:33:24.600
<v Speaker 3>weak theory is Michael Angelo and the controller impressing the buttons. Michael,

0:33:24.600 --> 0:33:27.160
<v Speaker 3>which final thought? Yeah, to get the flight attendant attention.

0:33:27.360 --> 0:33:30.200
<v Speaker 6>I have a small flashlight that's a strobe and I

0:33:30.240 --> 0:33:32.480
<v Speaker 6>hold it up and you know during red eyes that

0:33:32.560 --> 0:33:33.840
<v Speaker 6>you can really get their attention.

0:33:34.480 --> 0:33:36.720
<v Speaker 3>You know. That's the other thing that the Antifa goons

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:39.040
<v Speaker 3>were doing to the cops. They're flashing strobes in their eyes.

0:33:40.120 --> 0:33:42.080
<v Speaker 3>I'd beat them down for that. That's why I'm not

0:33:42.120 --> 0:33:43.360
<v Speaker 3>a cop jack. Final thought.

0:33:43.680 --> 0:33:46.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to prepare myself mentally. Maybe I should talk

0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:49.240
<v Speaker 1>to your son the actor, how you get in character,

0:33:50.240 --> 0:33:53.280
<v Speaker 1>because we're going to record a One More Thing podcast

0:33:53.360 --> 0:33:57.400
<v Speaker 1>that is going to be the most curse filled podcast

0:33:57.440 --> 0:34:00.440
<v Speaker 1>we've ever done. If I can get in care, it's

0:34:00.480 --> 0:34:04.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna have more bad language than any podcast we've ever done.

0:34:04.400 --> 0:34:07.200
<v Speaker 3>By far, folks, I have no idea what he's talking

0:34:07.240 --> 0:34:09.959
<v Speaker 3>about it. I too am shocked. My final thoughts beaking

0:34:09.960 --> 0:34:13.000

0:34:17.600 --> 0:34:20.480
<v Speaker 3>say I shouldn't say this. She needs to learn how

0:34:20.480 --> 0:34:24.280
<v Speaker 3>to play Majong very quickly for professional reasons.

0:34:24.400 --> 0:34:25.160
<v Speaker 1>What's Majong?

0:34:26.360 --> 0:34:29.160
<v Speaker 3>It's a game. It's a hard game. It's a tile
