Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George

Speaker 2: I'm strong and Getty and he I'm strong and Yetty.

4
00:00:23,239 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 3: From the National Mall here in Washington, d C. And

5
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 3: a big event happening here on Saturday, the White House

6
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 3: not too far from where I'm standing. Lots of preparations

7
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 3: already in place for this big celebration to mark the

8
00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:40,160
Speaker 3: occasion celebrating two hundred and fifty years of the US Army.

9
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:44,880
Speaker 3: Organizers say hundreds of thousands of people can attend this parade,

10
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 3: and we'll see tanks rolling through the streets near the

11
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 3: White House and aircraft flying overhead. Thousands of troops as well,

12
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,640
Speaker 3: roughly sixty six hundred will also take part in this

Speaker 3: big military display marking the Army's two hundred and fiftieth birthday,

14
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 3: which also falls on President Trump's birthday as well.

15
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 4: Wow, I didn't realize that that more helps justify it

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:08,800
Speaker 4: more the fact that it's the Army's two hundred and

17
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,360
Speaker 4: fiftieth birthday. But let's roll on with another report about

18
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,480
Speaker 4: the big military parade that Trump's going to have.

19
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 5: The President has longed for this parade, a show of

20
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 5: military might like he's seen from other countries. Sources toel

21
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 5: ABC News, mounted rocket launchers will be on display, as

22
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 5: well as a precision guided missile. This in addition to

23
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 5: those tanks and an assortment of fighting vehicles, the event

24
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 5: will also feature sixty seven hundred soldiers and a fifty

25
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,880
Speaker 5: aircraft flyover. Trump getting a bit of a preview today

26
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 5: in a visit to Fort Bragg. Saturday is going to

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 5: be a big day in Washington, DC.

28
00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people said, we don't want

29
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: to do that, as ao we do. We want to

30
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: show off a little bit.

31
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 5: The parade, which is built as a celebration of the

32
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 5: Army's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary, also falls on Trump's

33
00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 5: seventy ninth birthday. Sources tell us it could cost up

34
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 5: to forty five million.

35
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 4: Dollars whatever it could thrown in the cost like, that's

36
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 4: what bothers you now.

37
00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: A Democratic reporter at is a fiscal conservative welcome.

38
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 4: NPR had a surprisingly even handed report on this earlier today.

39
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 2: I'll talk a little bit about that.

40
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 4: But Rand Paul was the first Senate Republican to criticize

41
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 4: Trump's upcoming military parade. If you'll remember, Trump wanted to

42
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,640
Speaker 4: do a parade like this back in his first term,

43
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 4: but sect deaf mad Dog Mattis talked him out of it,

44
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 4: saying basically what Rand Paul says here, I wouldn't have

45
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 4: done it. I'm not sure what the actual expense of

46
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 4: it is. But we're always different than you know, the

47
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 4: images that you sawved the Soviet Union in North Korea.

48
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 4: We were proud not to be that. That was the

49
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 4: argument of mad Dog Mattis. We don't do what the

50
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 4: Soviet Union in North Korea and China do, you know,

51
00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 4: kind of in a threatening sort of way with our

52
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 4: missiles in the rolling through the street and that sort

53
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 4: of thing.

54
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: Legions of goose stepping soldiers. Sure right now.

55
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:08,720
Speaker 4: Like the NPR version of it that I heard, which

56
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 4: I thought was kind of interesting, was you know, maybe

57
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 4: seeing all the army and cool equipment is a helps recruit.

58
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,839
Speaker 2: I mean, from that standpoint, maybe that could be good.

59
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: You could make that argument.

60
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 4: And also reporters said, and this is true because I

61
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 4: think I lean against the idea of having a Soviet

62
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 4: style showing off our wares in the street thing. I'm

63
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 4: not hardcore on this. But if I was in charge,

64
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 4: i'd say no rather than yes.

65
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,240
Speaker 1: But dud lost my vote. Do we with your blather?

66
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: Do we not?

67
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 4: For instance, at the super Bowl have stealth bombers fly

68
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 4: over and everybody gets excited about that and thinks is

69
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 4: cool af right? What's the different the stealth bomber flying

70
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 4: over the super Bowl?

71
00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 2: What's that?

72
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 4: Look at the coolest plane on earth that we happen

73
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 4: to have world?

74
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say the whole Soviet style dot dot

75
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 1: dot is an interesting point. That is not the devastating argument.

76
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: I think some people think it is, and my reaction

77
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 1: to it is, and I am sensitive to that idea.

78
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: I'm not ignoring it. But the more I think about it, Hey,

79
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 1: it's two hundred and fiftieth anniversary or birthday of the Army.

80
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's a convenient excuse because he wanted

81
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 4: to do it first term, and now he's got okay,

82
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 4: this will be a good reason, and he'd put it

83
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 4: on his birthday.

84
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:35,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know, Trump, Trump is Trump. What his

85
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,559
Speaker 1: motivation is really, that can't be the deciding factor either.

86
00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 1: What I'm picturing is the unbelievable men and women of

87
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: our armed forces are mind boggling. Technology are crazy cool machines,

88
00:04:56,480 --> 00:05:03,520
Speaker 1: are fantastic planes, your tax dollars, the armed forces of

89
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,120
Speaker 1: the United States getting the spotlight for a minute. I

90
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: don't have any problem with that. Well, you saw goose

91
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: stepping soldiers. Not really.

92
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,440
Speaker 4: You said it's not a devastating argument, But apparently it

93
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,279
Speaker 4: was a devastating enough argument for Ronald Reagan not to

94
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:19,960
Speaker 4: feel like he wanted to do it in the height

95
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 4: of the Cold War for eight years, or Nixon or

96
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 4: whoever else was president all these years, because we've never

97
00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 4: done it other than thirty years ago after we won

98
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 4: the Gulf War, we did it.

99
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: I fully admit I might be argued off this point

100
00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 1: of view because I haven't thought about it a lot.

101
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,600
Speaker 4: But I'm like fifty three forty seven on this. Though

102
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 4: I'm not hardcore, it doesn't really bother me. I'm not

103
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 4: going to lose any sleepover it.

104
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,040
Speaker 1: I also think we are living in a time where

105
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,880
Speaker 1: a huge percentage, a shocking percentage of young people say no,

106
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,800
Speaker 1: it's not worth fighting for your country. There's no point.

107
00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:57,360
Speaker 1: It's pretty good the army is invisible to so many

108
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: people because it's a very narrow percentage of a Americans

109
00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: that are military families. I just I like the idea

110
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:11,080
Speaker 1: of proud, shiny, impressive being in front of the American people.

111
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 1: And if there are things we can do now, Trump

112
00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: I'm sure would like full on missile as substitute for

113
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:25,720
Speaker 1: Penis Freudian, North Korean, you know, displays of look how

114
00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: tough we are. I get that that's maybe his point

115
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: of view.

116
00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 4: Is like the hundred and first Airborne gonna march past

117
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 4: the Trump turn turn their heads toward him and salute,

118
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 4: and then he salutes them like they.

119
00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 2: Do in Kim Jong Lun.

120
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: It's entirely possible that would at least be requested. But

121
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:48,000
Speaker 1: the Marine band, for God's sake, some of the musical groups,

122
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,120
Speaker 1: you know, the Army band for that matter. Just I

123
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:53,320
Speaker 1: would actually a lot to like in the idea.

124
00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 4: I would actually like to hear more about why we

125
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 4: haven't done it in the past.

126
00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,840
Speaker 1: You know, you want to know what kind of guy.

127
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 1: When you said tanks rolling by, I thought, oh my god,

128
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: what's that going to do to the pavement?

129
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:04,440
Speaker 2: Yeah?

130
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 1: A lot of people have thought practical man.

131
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's a lot of the costs that they're

132
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 4: discussing is it will absolutely destroy the road.

133
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:13,360
Speaker 2: They'll have to repave it.

134
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 4: But I mean, good God, with the amount of money

135
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 4: we spend, that shouldn't be part of the discussion on this.

136
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,240
Speaker 1: And then the secret plan is to roll all those

137
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 1: tanks into Fairfax County and take over the schools where

138
00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:29,320
Speaker 1: they're indoctrinating the kids into Marxism and sexual perversion. Why fantasy?

139
00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 4: Why didn't we do it at the height of the

140
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 4: Cold War, when every year they would parade their best

141
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 4: missiles through Red Square in front of whoever the current

142
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 4: alive leader the Communist Party was.

143
00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, barely alive. I did not know Ronald Reagan, but

144
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 1: I suspect very strongly his answer would be, I prefer

145
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: to speak softly and carry an unimaginably large stick, right.

146
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

147
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 4: We're we were wanting to win the world with our ideas.

148
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 4: The rockets are a last resort.

149
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,239
Speaker 1: I also think it's a principle that I've learned through life,

150
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: where you got a handful of guys playing the tough

151
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 1: guy in a bar, you know, chesting up. You want

152
00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 1: to bring it you on, piece of me, you want

153
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,280
Speaker 1: a piece of me, And the guy who's just looking

154
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,280
Speaker 1: with a calm smile on his face, got nothing to say,

155
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,360
Speaker 1: not posturing at all. That's the guy you gotta watch.

156
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 4: I like that vibe. As the United States of America.

157
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 4: I think that's a pretty cool vibe. Yeah, we don't

158
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 4: need to we don't need to show you our rockets.

159
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 4: I mean, it's like when when Matt Doug Mattis would

160
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 4: be asking, you know what keeps you up at night?

161
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 2: Nothing? I keep other people up at night. You know,

162
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:40,840
Speaker 2: just that sort of.

163
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 1: Addit of that Yeah, tough guy. Well you want to

164
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,120
Speaker 1: talk about a guy who's not a tough one.

165
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: Oh my god.

166
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just I don't think that lands the way

167
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 4: he thinks it lands.

168
00:08:53,679 --> 00:08:55,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's why it's so enjoyable.

169
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 4: So Gavin, what's our favorite Gavin Newsom? The little Gavin Newsom?

170
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,359
Speaker 4: This is from his speech last night, that that little clip, Michael.

171
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 6: This moment we have feared has arrived.

172
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 4: Gavin Newsom gave a speech last night. It was clearly

173
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 4: his biggest effort yet. I mean you could call that

174
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 4: the opening salvo of running for president. I mean it wash,

175
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 4: it looked great, well lit, hair was perfect and grayer

176
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 4: than I've ever seen it. That's not an accident. See,

177
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 4: either it's either that gray and he's been dying it

178
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 4: or he grated.

179
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,599
Speaker 2: I don't know which. Sometimes politicians do both.

180
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:38,960
Speaker 1: In the care of carefully written teleprompter speech.

181
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, with the US flag behind him, and it just

182
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,760
Speaker 4: had a very presidential look to it. And then he

183
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,240
Speaker 4: was trying to make the point that whatever everything we

184
00:09:48,280 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 4: had feared Trump making the authoritarian turn has happened, We're

185
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 4: now living in a in a Nazi healscape.

186
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 2: He didn't, he didn't say that, but that's what he

187
00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 2: was a plant.

188
00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,520
Speaker 1: Oh, by the way, on the round, self think doesn't

189
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: seem very Nazi. Hills goes on with Day on the whole,

190
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,559
Speaker 1: on the whole, opening salvo of the presidential election for Democrats,

191
00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: Mark Alpern was pointing this out about uh Ram Emmanuel.

192
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:17,319
Speaker 4: Ram Emmanuel, who's got such game. I just saw him

193
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,120
Speaker 4: on CNN this morning. He's so freaking good. I mean,

194
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 4: as a Democrat, he'd be my guy. But so he

195
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 4: is making the rounds and doing a number of podcasts.

196
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:31,160
Speaker 4: He's the opposite of Gavin Newsom. He didn't hire anybody

197
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 4: or put any thought into how it looked. He's in

198
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 4: a room with completely bare bookshelves, like are you did

199
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 4: you move out?

200
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 2: Or are you a squat in someplace?

201
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,880
Speaker 4: He's in this room with bare bookshelves, poorly lit, camera

202
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 4: down low, looking up his nostrils, wearing a full set

203
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,400
Speaker 4: of headphones so he can hear the podcaster as opposed

204
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 4: to like an earpiece with your head turned or something.

205
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,880
Speaker 2: And I mean it was the opposite of Kevin's.

206
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,880
Speaker 4: Like Mark Calprin could not believe that he didn't have

207
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:00,800
Speaker 4: a team that got him a better look than that

208
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,240
Speaker 4: for kind of his debut on the national stage.

209
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,760
Speaker 2: As part of the conversation for being the nominee.

210
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: Well, every sixteen year old with an Instagram account does

211
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:10,960
Speaker 1: better than that.

212
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:15,959
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, absolutely it was weak man. Wow, you know

213
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,559
Speaker 2: that really bad room lighting.

214
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 4: Where you're all washed out and the camera from below

215
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 4: and then shooting up your nose.

216
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,959
Speaker 2: Just empty shelves and an empty desk.

217
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 4: Find him like he you know, had run into a

218
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 4: hallway to take the zoom call, which it looks like

219
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:32,040
Speaker 4: he probably.

220
00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:36,080
Speaker 1: Did, right. Yeah, that is funny, he laughed.

221
00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 4: Laugh. This is the question of the day. Did Gavin

222
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:45,560
Speaker 4: Gray his air? Did he have it professionally grade? No,

223
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:48,240
Speaker 4: his advisors just told him to ease up on the show.

224
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 4: So you think he eased up on dying. He was

225
00:11:51,280 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 4: dyeing his hair and then is eased up on that.

226
00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,319
Speaker 1: Wow, oh some men, you used to soften the gray,

227
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:06,680
Speaker 1: You monster, your cube ball headed, judgmental monster.

228
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 6: This moment we have feared has arrived, arrived.

229
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,880
Speaker 2: Good Lord, Nazi hellscape, stay June.

230
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 6: This moment we have feared has arrived.

231
00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:28,079
Speaker 2: Oh, shut up. Some entertainment news.

232
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 7: I've read that CNN's live airing of George Clooney's good

233
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,679
Speaker 7: Night and good Luck pulled it over seven million viewers.

234
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,920
Speaker 7: It's odd people will watch a play about the news

235
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 7: on CNN, but they won't watch the news on CNN.

236
00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:47,199
Speaker 2: CNN in our joke, CNN is.

237
00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,200
Speaker 7: Going to try to recapture the magic next weekend by

238
00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,760
Speaker 7: airing a live production of Annie starring Wolf Blitzer.

239
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: He why is that funny? That's funny?

240
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 4: CNN aired a live Broadway play and got higher ratings

241
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 4: than any of their news shows that had to get

242
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 4: the attention of somebody thinking what are we doing here?

243
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 1: They're going to have to go the way of like

244
00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 1: the History Channel and the Learning Channel, which went from

245
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,080
Speaker 1: their core MTV went from doing what it did to

246
00:13:20,200 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 1: just shows about pregnant teens and dwarfs and hoarders and

247
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 1: pregnant dwarf for.

248
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:24,840
Speaker 2: You're exactly right.

249
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 4: The Learning Channel went away from here's how electricity works

250
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,200
Speaker 4: to my six hundred pound life as soon as they

251
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 4: got my ratings.

252
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, speaking at TV shows, I thought you might

253
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,600
Speaker 1: want to comment on this, Jack. I found it interesting.

254
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 1: I was reading something that who what's this guy's name?

255
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: I like his writing, Peter Heck for not thebe dot com,

256
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: which is the Babylon Bees, not parody site. It's just

257
00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:52,000
Speaker 1: news and analysis, and it's actually pretty good. And Peter's

258
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,920
Speaker 1: getting into the whole Gavey newsom trying to capitalize on

259
00:13:54,960 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: the unrest and call Trumpet dictator and how the moment

260
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 1: we feared would come is here and I am your

261
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,839
Speaker 1: hope and salvation and the rest of it. And then

262
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,680
Speaker 1: Peter gets into just the utter chaos and waste in

263
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: California and the crime and the bullet train and the

264
00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 1: rest of it. But here's the part I found really interesting.

265
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: Gavy tweeted, the Secretary of Defense is now threatening to

266
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 1: deploy active duty marines on American soil against its own citizens.

267
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 1: This is deranged behavior, and Peter writes, the problem for

268
00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 1: Newsom and the reason I thought you'd want to comment,

269
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 1: Jack is when you would watch the Sunday talk shows,

270
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 1: which I cannot force myself to watch. It's like giving

271
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,720
Speaker 1: myself some sort of injection into my private parts. I

272
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: just can't do it doing your own vasectomy. Yeah exactly.

273
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 1: But you have the discipline and I admire it. But

274
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 1: you commented on something like this many many times. And

275
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 1: I'll read what he wrote and let you go out.

276
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,440
Speaker 1: But the problem for Newsom is that progressives are no

277
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: longer dealing with a political opposition that rolls over for

278
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: this type of absurdity. Gone are the days of the

279
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: right attempting to lower the temperature or participate in the

280
00:15:01,960 --> 00:15:05,800
Speaker 1: correct caricature drawn up by the Democratic Party propagandists in

281
00:15:05,920 --> 00:15:12,920
Speaker 1: mainstream media. Hegxeth fired back immediately. Deranged equals allowing your

282
00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,080
Speaker 1: city to burn, law enforcement to be attacked. There's plenty

283
00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,120
Speaker 1: of room for peaceful protest, but zero tolerance for attacking

284
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:22,160
Speaker 1: federal agents who are doing their jobs. The National Guarden Marines,

285
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,920
Speaker 1: if need be, stand with ice. Yeah, I remember you

286
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,200
Speaker 1: used to talk about this all the time.

287
00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:30,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, complained that when Republicans were on the Sunday talk shows,

288
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 4: they would never push back on the liberal bent of

289
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,800
Speaker 4: all those shows that faces the nation, that meets the press.

290
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,560
Speaker 4: And I always wondered why, And I guess because they

291
00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 4: wanted to be happy warriors, or because they were on

292
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,920
Speaker 4: enemy turf and they are going along together.

293
00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but like I wanted

294
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,840
Speaker 1: to preserve their access, or they want to be back

295
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 1: on the show again.

296
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 2: I don't know.

297
00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 4: Some easy examples they would not push back on, you know,

298
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 4: convert whatever you conflating illegal immigration with immigration.

299
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 2: They would let hosts get away with that all the time.

300
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 4: And never say, are we talking about illegal immigration or immigration?

301
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 4: They're two different things here, and you know that they

302
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 4: would never ever do that. Of just endless examples of

303
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:18,720
Speaker 4: that sort of thing where the Republicans have never pushed

304
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:19,840
Speaker 4: back and now they.

305
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: Are, they would argue the premise on the progressives ground.

306
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna fight it on your turf for some reason.

307
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 1: Right, this is deranged behavior. Sending in the National Guard. Well,

308
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 1: we're going to make sure that the National Guard is

309
00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:40,239
Speaker 1: restrained in what they do and that all rights are protected.

310
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: Margaret and no, no, So what's deranged is letting riots

311
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:49,600
Speaker 1: happen with impunity, Let your cops get their heads smashed

312
00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,120
Speaker 1: and federal buildings be attacked without inadequate response. That's deranged.

313
00:16:55,240 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 1: Defend that, Margaret, Yes, Saucy Little almost said something I

314
00:17:00,880 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 1: shouldn't have.

315
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 6: Wow.

316
00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: Wow, you know I've got something semi misogynists to go

317
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: along with that. But we have some time since that

318
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 1: where we're looking for. I had a weird experience getting

319
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:16,320
Speaker 1: ready for the show today. I'll tell you about it,

320
00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 1: and that's a misogynist. No, it's fair.

321
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:26,639
Speaker 8: But dozens of Ukrainian prisoners of war were freed in

322
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 8: an exchange with Russia. They were greeted to a hero's

323
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:37,000
Speaker 8: welcome at a hospital north of Kiev, but they looked

324
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 8: like the living dead, gaunt, heads shaven, their bodies broken,

325
00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 8: and some said beaten. Alexandro Kohlkoff told me he was

326
00:17:46,920 --> 00:17:50,000
Speaker 8: a prisoner for over three years and that the Russians

327
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 8: broke his ribs. If nothing was already broken, they would

328
00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:55,399
Speaker 8: break it, he said.

329
00:17:55,640 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 4: Jeez, Prutin and his military, they're animals. You want to

330
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:06,800
Speaker 4: let them win. I don't get it anyway. Pete Hagzeth

331
00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 4: who we were just applauding for something. He was asked

332
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 4: under oath yesterday by Senate lawmakers. He's doing three appearances

333
00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 4: before Congress this weekend, being grilled about a whole bunch

334
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 4: of different things. Senator McConnell, former Majority Leader, asked the

335
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 4: question of Hegxeth who is the aggressor in Ukraine?

336
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 2: And Hegzeth said Russia is the aggressor.

337
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 4: Now. Steve Hayes of the Dispatch said, should we be

338
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 4: encouraged that Hegzeth gave the obvious and accurate answer to

339
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 4: that question, or discourage that McConnell felt the need to

340
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:46,040
Speaker 4: ask it. But yeah, it's good. It's good good news

341
00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:50,919
Speaker 4: as far as I'm concerned. Man oh Man, that's that's something.

342
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 4: Those stories about the hostages are prisoners coming back.

343
00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: He had the utter disregard for human life, whether there's

344
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: or other peoples. That is part of Russian military history

345
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: is amazing. I was just reading and listening about World

346
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,239
Speaker 1: War Two, some of the major victories that Russia had

347
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,080
Speaker 1: and the incredible sacrifices they made, and the point was

348
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: made that some of those horrific numbers are because of

349
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: their techniques. They're just utterly heedless of wasting men.

350
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter to AMO never has.

351
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and US casualties were much much lower in similar encounters,

352
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,879
Speaker 1: just because we go about warfare in a very different

353
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,200
Speaker 1: way we did back in the forties. Anyway, back culturetion

354
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000
Speaker 1: continues to today. Obviously back closer to home.

355
00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:41,640
Speaker 4: I thought this was a pretty good point from Jim

356
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,920
Speaker 4: Garrity the National Review. Do California elected officials realize how

357
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 4: ridiculous they sound when they spend several days insisting that

358
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,640
Speaker 4: local law enforcement had it handled, the streets were quiet,

359
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,680
Speaker 4: and local law enforcement resources are sufficient to maintain order,

360
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 4: and then a day or two later, last night, the

361
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 4: mayor is forced to declare a curfew.

362
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 2: Okay, you had it under control, you still.

363
00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 4: Got you had to have a curfew last night with

364
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 4: the National Guard troops.

365
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 2: Mmm, what would have been like without them?

366
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 1: You know? The metaphor I keep using and I'm sticking

367
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:17,240
Speaker 1: with it is demark the leaders in California are like

368
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: a sports team that has not yet played a real game.

369
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: They just scrimmage. They have an inter squad scrimmage over

370
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 1: and over and over again, and they never come up

371
00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 1: against an opponent that's really really trying to win, and

372
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:35,400
Speaker 1: they think they have game. Gavin Newsom thinks he has

373
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:36,600
Speaker 1: national level game.

374
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 4: Two suspects of It's just been charged with throwing molotov

375
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,120
Speaker 4: cocktails at police during the LA riots. This happened moments ago.

376
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,480
Speaker 4: That doesn't sound very peaceful to me.

377
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:53,840
Speaker 1: Firebombs. Just a bunch of people having fun watching cars burn.

378
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 2: Just a bunch of people enjoying watching cars burn.

379
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 1: Oh wait a minute, give me seventy, Michael seventy again,

380
00:20:59,119 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: the Great Maxine.

381
00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:04,280
Speaker 7: Don't think that somehow, because they called out the National

382
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:05,560
Speaker 7: Guard there was violence.

383
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 2: There was no violence. I was on the street.

384
00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 6: I know.

385
00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, those chunks of concrete being hurled over and over

386
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: again at the cops. I guess that video is AI

387
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 1: or something.

388
00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:18,400
Speaker 2: Okay, we live in a post truth universe.

389
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 4: Oh and inflation lower than expected, So I don't understand

390
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 4: what's going on. Why after a liberation day in the

391
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 4: tariffs on the turmoil and this and that, and of

392
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 4: course the endless mainstream coverage of how Trump's Hitler with

393
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 4: a bad economic policy, his poll numbers are up in

394
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,040
Speaker 4: inflations basically flat.

395
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,360
Speaker 1: Okay, bing bing bang bang bing bing bing bing bing

396
00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:51,960
Speaker 1: bong bong granted, but it's a complicated stew of the economy.

397
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:56,199
Speaker 1: It could be argued that increased fears of economic woes

398
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 1: to come have caused a suppression of consumer spending.

399
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 2: I would have to again to that economic stew.

400
00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 1: Oh hey, speaking of AI, which I mentioned a second ago.

401
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:13,920
Speaker 1: Tens of thousands of people now believe AI or chat

402
00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:20,479
Speaker 1: GPT is God. What seems to be a religion is

403
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:29,239
Speaker 1: forming up around AI. Quasi religious posts would fill up

404
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: entire AI forums if moderators didn't censor them. Just five

405
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:38,360
Speaker 1: days ago, the moderator of a pro AI reddit announced

406
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:43,879
Speaker 1: that they are now banning these fanatics. Two days earlier,

407
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: another redditor warned of thousands of people online with spiritual

408
00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:48,360
Speaker 1: delusions about AI.

409
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 4: I need to look into this. That I hadn't heard

410
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 4: a word about nor anticipated a lot of this stuff.

411
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 4: I had anticipated a lot of us, did I hadn't

412
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,639
Speaker 4: anticipated that. That's kooky. Now I did get ye, I

413
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 4: did get sent this the other day. It was an ad.

414
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,760
Speaker 4: I don't know where the ads showed up. I won't

415
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 4: replace him, but I'll be here when you can't sleep.

416
00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 4: Here are ten AI boyfriends who help you, heal, distract you,

417
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 4: and remind you of your worth, and it's got a

418
00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 4: picture of a young handsome man. Where in the hell

419
00:23:24,359 --> 00:23:25,320
Speaker 4: are we headed.

420
00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,640
Speaker 1: Planet of the beavers? Nobody's getting together anymore.

421
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:31,800
Speaker 4: I won't replace him, but I'll be here when you

422
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:34,880
Speaker 4: can't sleep. Here are ten AI boyfriends who help you, heal,

423
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,760
Speaker 4: distract you, and remind you of your worth. That is

424
00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 4: so freaking crazy. That is so freaking crazy. How did

425
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 4: it happen so fast? I mean we thought maybe someday,

426
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 4: if AI gets good enough and robots look exactly like humans,

427
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,520
Speaker 4: possibly the most deranged among us could develop.

428
00:23:56,640 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 1: No, no, just the middle of that sentence that happened,

429
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:05,200
Speaker 1: just just just words on a screen with no voice, yeah,

430
00:24:05,240 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: and no image whatsoever.

431
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 4: And no robot is making people stay at home and

432
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 4: feel like they're in a relationship.

433
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,520
Speaker 2: That is so crazy.

434
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,680
Speaker 1: You yourself have mentioned that uh chat, GPT or whatever

435
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,879
Speaker 1: is a better counselor than most counselors.

436
00:24:19,960 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 2: Freaking right, if you have that in using that that biggest.

437
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:25,000
Speaker 1: Stretch that it's a better friend too.

438
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, but an emotional like love relationship, really, even a

439
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 4: friend relationship is sick because it's you.

440
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:36,440
Speaker 2: No, No, I haven't.

441
00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:39,520
Speaker 4: I haven't felt that at all any like friendship or

442
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,560
Speaker 4: anything like that. The the ability to distill a tremendous

443
00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:46,399
Speaker 4: amount of information down to the best very quickly and

444
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 4: put it in like conversational terms.

445
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: Yes, but man is so nuts.

446
00:24:52,800 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know where we're going, man, down

447
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 4: this road lies Matt, You're right, Jonathan Turley. Maybe this

448
00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:02,639
Speaker 4: stat that I across doesn't matter since everybody's going to

449
00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 4: be in love with a chatbot.

450
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:07,879
Speaker 2: You can't have a kid with a chatbot.

451
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 4: The average cost of raising a child in the US

452
00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:15,280
Speaker 4: is now twenty six thousand dollars per year. Okay, I

453
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:18,560
Speaker 4: think most parents listening right now are saying, how in

454
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,600
Speaker 4: the heck are you raising a kid for twenty six.

455
00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 2: Thousand dollars a year?

456
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:22,920
Speaker 1: Really?

457
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know what they factor into raising

458
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,840
Speaker 4: a kid or whatnot, but seems low to me. Everything

459
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:35,400
Speaker 4: everything in, food, clothes, schooling, everything.

460
00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:39,879
Speaker 1: Every time I hear those numbers, whether they are low

461
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: or high, I think, how'd you come up with that?

462
00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:43,439
Speaker 2: It's true? Yeah, cause what are you?

463
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 1: And who asked?

464
00:25:46,080 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 2: Band?

465
00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 1: Rental, travel, sports, vacation. Then again, to my point, who

466
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 1: asked you? Since I've never heard a parent, good point

467
00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 1: say you know, my kid's costing more than I thought.

468
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: I'm a good point considering a change in this relationship.

469
00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,639
Speaker 4: No parent has like on their spreadsheet or whatever. If

470
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 4: you're the sort of person that does this, I don't

471
00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 4: probably should Where you put all your expenses, I don't.

472
00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 4: I don't know if anybody who like has things that

473
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 4: they put in the what it cost me to have

474
00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,600
Speaker 4: a kid column to keep track?

475
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:30,400
Speaker 1: Well, right, yeah, yeah, I've never Having raised three kids,

476
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: I had a minor child under my roof for twenty

477
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,040
Speaker 1: five straight years. At no point did Judy and I

478
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: ever say, all right, we need to total up all

479
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,800
Speaker 1: these expenses so we can what and then we'll grant

480
00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 1: credits for lawns mode and bathrooms cleaned or whatever chores

481
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,159
Speaker 1: were done, and then we'll I mean, it's just it

482
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,120
Speaker 1: wasn't anything we ever thought about.

483
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 4: Yeah'll knock off five thousand dollars for the most satisfying

484
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,080
Speaker 4: thing I've ever done in life.

485
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 2: I'll give you that, But the rest of it is

486
00:26:58,400 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 2: just a cost.

487
00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:04,920
Speaker 1: It's right, and the whole I'm just it's funny. Maybe

488
00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:07,159
Speaker 1: I lacked imagination as a youngster, but Judy and I

489
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,280
Speaker 1: knew we wanted to have kids. At one point and

490
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,360
Speaker 1: so we went ahead. There was no like, long, careful,

491
00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:15,400
Speaker 1: can we afford to or what? No, you just do

492
00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 1: it and figure it out and it goes fine. Were

493
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,159
Speaker 1: we poor? Yes? Was it fine?

494
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:21,600
Speaker 8: Yeah?

495
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 4: Well, the expenses just kind of fit in with the

496
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:26,280
Speaker 4: rest of your household expenses. I mean, I suppose you

497
00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 4: could make the argument that your house is bigger, so

498
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,880
Speaker 4: part of the house payment goes is because of them,

499
00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 4: and you have to maybe have a bigger car and

500
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 4: make more trips. You figure out all the gas for

501
00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 4: driving to pick them up at school and drop them.

502
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,199
Speaker 2: I mean, you're a nut if you do that.

503
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,480
Speaker 1: Well, right, yeah, and again, why are we talking about it?

504
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 1: I don't know, so you care exactly? What's the thing exactly? Yeah, well,

505
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:49,320
Speaker 1: I need to put a price on each child. I'll

506
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 1: tell you what. The boy's extra handsome so we'll get

507
00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:56,440
Speaker 1: a discount. But yeah, it's an odd bit of analysis.

508
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 1: You play sports. Life is not dollars and cents. You

509
00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: play sports, so I had to buy you more clothes

510
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 1: for that.

511
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,280
Speaker 4: You don't play sports, but you're in band, so you

512
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 4: have a different cost.

513
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 2: What the hell?

514
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:10,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I don't know. It seems odd. Life is

515
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,159
Speaker 1: not dollars and cents. Folks, you can't take it with

516
00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 1: you right moving along, I don't want to talk unrest anymore.

517
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,040
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this. Here's a great protest for you.

518
00:28:22,119 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 1: This is really going to get a lot of people

519
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:28,080
Speaker 1: on their side. Hundreds of flowers were vandalized at a

520
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 1: botanical Michigan garden, and the activists who did it left

521
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: pro Palestinian signs behind that said plant lives don't matter,

522
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:38,240
Speaker 1: human lives do.

523
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 4: Oh my god, glue those people to something, let us

524
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 4: pelp them with rocks or fruit.

525
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: I'm in favor of all of those things. The garden

526
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 1: director made his heart broken.

527
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:54,280
Speaker 4: It's one of the few things that falls under our

528
00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 4: strict reading of cruel and unusual. Glue to them to

529
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:03,040
Speaker 4: some thing and throw rocks at them is probably cruel

530
00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,280
Speaker 4: and unusual, barbar it's.

531
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,920
Speaker 1: A little cruel and certainly unusual.

532
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 2: You've been sentenced to be glued to something in public?

533
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:13,400
Speaker 2: Yeah a year?

534
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 1: How gian lives? You deserve to be cared for more

535
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 1: than these flowers. Don't waste your tears on the flowers.

536
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: They're not even dead, and we'll grow again next spring.

537
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:28,680
Speaker 4: Uh Is it even worth going this far into this conversation.

538
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,200
Speaker 4: Do they possibly think they did their cause any help?

539
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,440
Speaker 4: I almost feel like if I wanted to discredit the

540
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,120
Speaker 4: pro Palestinian crowd, I would do something like that. Is

541
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 4: this like a you know, a noose flag operation, a

542
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:47,320
Speaker 4: noose in a fraternity to show racism, and it turns

543
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,520
Speaker 4: out it's the somebody put it up on purpose to

544
00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 4: stop the war, resist imperialism.

545
00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,640
Speaker 2: The flowers and crazy people.

546
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,320
Speaker 1: They would like to give you a good thrash.

547
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 2: Glue you to something.

548
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 4: Oh we will finish strong next he quick breaking news,

549
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:15,239
Speaker 4: breaking news, donkey. If you're a music fan of a

550
00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: certain age. Brian Wilson, really the driving force of the

551
00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: Beach Boys, dead.

552
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 2: At age eighty two.

553
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,400
Speaker 1: Wow, huh one of.

554
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:25,680
Speaker 4: That Yeah, as a big one, one of the great

555
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,680
Speaker 4: musical geniuses that everybody was chasing back in the day.

556
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 2: And he was actually crazy yep, which is interesting.

557
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: Uh.

558
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,400
Speaker 4: Did you see Bob Costa rippin' maga media at some

559
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:39,080
Speaker 4: awards thing?

560
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 1: M I did not.

561
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,440
Speaker 4: I couldn't be a bigger fan of Bob costas his

562
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:47,600
Speaker 4: professional work, not only his sportscaster stuff, but his late

563
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 4: night show he used to have on late at night

564
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 4: whatever that was called, where you later, people later with

565
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,160
Speaker 4: Bob Costas one of the best interview shows, maybe the

566
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:58,240
Speaker 4: best interview show that has ever existed. I can still

567
00:30:58,280 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 4: remember episodes he was it's oh good and get into

568
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 4: it with musicians and actors and politicians and everybody. Oh

569
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,160
Speaker 4: my god, he was good. But like so many people

570
00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 4: in the media, you know, underneath it all, he's a

571
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:15,200
Speaker 4: crazy lefty whack job. You wonder how they functioned as

572
00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,400
Speaker 4: normal as they did with this. But anyway, he won

573
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 4: some sort of an award. In his big speech, he

574
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 4: talked about Magamedia and how the Magamedia giving both sides

575
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 4: of the story is completely misplaced, like CNN trying to

576
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 4: be middle of the road. He used as an example.

577
00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:37,720
Speaker 4: I'm kind of paraphrasing because he has a really long dietribe.

578
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,280
Speaker 4: If someone says, and the idea is that you have

579
00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 4: to find somebody who will not just defend Donald Trump

580
00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 4: but valorize it, even on CNN or whatever else, just

581
00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:49,040
Speaker 4: in the name of being balanced. Look, if someone is

582
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,520
Speaker 4: contending that the Earth is flat, in order to appear objective,

583
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 4: you are not required to say.

584
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:57,280
Speaker 2: Well, maybe it might be oblong, No, it's not. Certainly

585
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 2: things some things are just true.

586
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:01,520
Speaker 1: And regard there we have the problem.

587
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 4: But go ahead and regrettably, something that's true in America

588
00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:05,880
Speaker 4: right now is that the President of the United States

589
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 4: is absolutely no regard and in fact, has contempt for

590
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,600
Speaker 4: basic American principles and basic common decency.

591
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 2: You have a response to that, I do also.

592
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,640
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I was actually that last point. I agree.

593
00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:20,080
Speaker 1: Sometimes he shows contempt for certain principles and it makes

594
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 1: me uncomfortable. But he revealed the problem there. He believes

595
00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:29,040
Speaker 1: his political beliefs are as indisputable as the shape of

596
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: planet Earth.

597
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 2: I do, right.

598
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean, that was a sloppy metaphor, but he revealed

599
00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: himself there. I have very strongly held beliefs. I understand

600
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 1: completely that there are reasonable people who disagree. I would

601
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: love the opportunity to try to convince them. I don't

602
00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,960
Speaker 1: say that they're pitching, you know, something so completely insane

603
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:48,920
Speaker 1: nobody could believe it.

604
00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 2: Right.

605
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a good point, because scientific you can have

606
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 4: scientific facts, they can be proven.

607
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 2: You can't have political facts.

608
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 4: And the other part of it would be if half,

609
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 4: oh if over half the country believes something like uh,

610
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 4: you know, got Donald Trump elected to start with, and

611
00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:14,320
Speaker 4: then is around half now agrees with him. If half

612
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:19,440
Speaker 4: the country agrees with something, I think, yeah, you probably should.

613
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 1: Present that point of view, right if you want to

614
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: present it, steal manet and knock it down, go ahead,

615
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:32,440
Speaker 1: But Costace's contention that don't even mention it. It's beneath contempt.

616
00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:36,360
Speaker 1: Aren't you curious? Bob? How you know half of America

617
00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:39,520
Speaker 1: significantly more than half of the voters last time came

618
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: to a completely different conclusion than you.

619
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 4: Did, and they just bamboozled And probably not a lot

620
00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 4: of ever thinking hmm, half the country thinks this about

621
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:48,960
Speaker 4: this issue.

622
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 2: I wonder if I'm wrong? Ever occurred to you on that?

623
00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: Wow?

624
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,120
Speaker 6: It's final though.

625
00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 5: Boys, so well your comments and.

626
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 6: Yes closer for the show.

00:34:21,160 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 2: Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.

630
00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: Hey, let's get a final thought from everybody on the

631
00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:27,040
Speaker 1: crew to wrap things up for the day. Wouldn't that

632
00:34:27,200 --> 00:34:29,920
Speaker 1: be lovely? Let's begin with Michaelangelo and the controller. Michael

633
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:30,520
Speaker 1: final thought.

634
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, I been a tough show for me today. I've

635
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,319
Speaker 9: been pulling up my pants every few minutes here in

636
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,040
Speaker 9: the studio, I was the guy that forgot his belt,

637
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 9: and so I'm the guy that's been walking around the

638
00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 9: office pulling up his pants constantly.

639
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 2: I hate it when I forget my belt.

640
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, if we weren't so short handed, pager or.

641
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:47,520
Speaker 9: Something, if we weren't so short handed, I probably would

642
00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:48,000
Speaker 9: have gone home.

643
00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:52,560
Speaker 1: It's being going to be in shorthanded. Katie is off Jack.

644
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:53,560
Speaker 1: A final thought for us.

645
00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,440
Speaker 4: I hate to do a serious final thought, but I

646
00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:58,080
Speaker 4: wanted to read this from David Ignatius. He's a proud Lefty,

647
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 4: and his piece in the Washington Post today, Democrats have

648
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 4: gotten the border issue so wrong for so long that

649
00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 4: it mounts to political malpractice.

650
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 2: From a Democrat. My final thought.

651
00:35:10,600 --> 00:35:12,560
Speaker 1: I was reading the Wall Street Journal, going through it

652
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 1: this morning, as I do most days, and I became

653
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:22,759
Speaker 1: aware that every article that had the feel of Republicans

654
00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,880
Speaker 1: or Conservatives are mean and people are fighting against them,

655
00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 1: or somebody is big and powerful and mean and people

656
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,400
Speaker 1: are fighting against them. Every story was written by a

657
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:38,120
Speaker 1: woman or several women. I began predicting before I clicked

658
00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,440
Speaker 1: on the story whether the story was written by a

659
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 1: male or female. I was right four times in a

660
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:47,399
Speaker 1: row just by the nature of the story. I don't

661
00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: know what that means.

662
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 4: Armstrong, Young Getty wrapping up another grueling four hour workday.

663
00:35:51,880 --> 00:35:53,360

674
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,480
