Yeah? Yeah, Well, to 55 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: be honest, we hear it, you hear it. 56 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, no windows on a nuclear powered submarine, just all sonar. 57 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 4: But you'd beat surprised what's out there and what you hear. 58 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 4: It's all kinds of things. And again we have world 59 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 4: class sonarmen that are manning those headsets and listen to 60 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:55,639 Speaker 4: all these things and characterizing that for us. The things 61 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 4: that I just can't talk about classification level. 62 00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: Have you guys ever heard anything that you thought, what 63 00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: the hell is that? And nobody can figure it out? 64 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: Of course? Yeah, all the time. 65 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:06,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, And we just marked that as like you know, 66 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 4: you've heard of you know, unknown araa phenomenon. We got 67 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 4: unknown undersea phenomenon. It's that kind of thing. I'm never 68 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 4: sure what that is, that's rare, right, but in general 69 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 4: it happens sometimes. It's so interesting how we feel that 70 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 4: outer space is such the crazy, crazy unexplored world, but gosh, 71 00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 4: when it comes to under the water, just the same, 72 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 4: even more so, I would think, yes, But of course 73 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 4: the reason you're down there is not for sight seeing. 74 00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 4: Oh it's nice to hear a way all from time 75 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 4: to time say yellow is up. But keeping our waters 76 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 4: safe and our planet rolling in a safe direction, we 77 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 4: thank you so much for that, without doubt, and we 78 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 4: we salute you. And to have you all here in 79 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 4: New York City right now and now I found it. 80 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 4: None of them are from New York City. So they 81 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 4: got off the ship and they're like, what. 82 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: Do we do? Now? Leave it as you found it, 83 00:03:59,080 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: clean it up. 84 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: What does Fleet Week mean to the men and women 85 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 2: who are visiting New York City right now? 86 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 1: Oh? 87 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,640 Speaker 4: I think it's just a tremendous opportunity for them. I mean, 88 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 4: it's greatest city on Earth. All the things that they 89 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 4: can do and engage with the people in New York. 90 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,320 Speaker 4: You know, a lot of people have some trepidation when 91 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 4: they come to a large city like this and they're 92 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,479 Speaker 4: not sure what it's going to be how it's going 93 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 4: to play out, what they're going to find. But I 94 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 4: just and this is my third fleet week in this 95 00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 4: position in New York, and it's just such an open 96 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 4: arms approach.

It's a beautiful thing. 101 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:41,760 Speaker 2: And I tell you what you picked. The bad news 102 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,799 Speaker 2: is you chose a very, very nice sunny week because 103 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,480 Speaker 2: one of the incredible natural phenomenon that happens here in 104 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: New York City is when it rains, it makes its 105 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 2: own gravy. Yeah, New York City is just it's New 106 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 2: York City. It's like it's a very saucy town when 107 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 2: it rains. 108 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 1: That's funny. Keep that in mind when it rains, Danielle. 109 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 3: Are you're talking about going to restaurant into getting things 110 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 3: paid for? How do you eat spaghetti in those white outfits? Seriously? 111 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 4: Well carefully. Uh, this is a town of red salce. 112 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 4: It is incredibly the town of red solce. So I 113 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 4: got a great wife over here that bibs me up 114 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 4: and make sure that I do not screw that up. 115 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:20,039 Speaker 1: And so she takes good care of me. She bibs 116 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: me up. Yet, what happens if you do get a 117 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: saint on it? 118 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,919 Speaker 4: Do you have to immediately go home? Well, there's a 119 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 4: you know, as an admiral. One of the fortunate things 120 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:28,720 Speaker 4: I do is I have a person takes care of 121 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 4: that too, understanding like right there, there you go and 122 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 4: uh so, uh, he brings a bunch of uniforms and 123 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 4: he makes sure that I'm good to go. 124 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 1: Wait, do you have. 125 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 3: Tips on how to keep uniforms clean?

Yeah, 127 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 3: we're going to talk. 128 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 2: We're asking the pressing questions, you know. Uh, of course, 129 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 2: we have the Navy represented very well here today. We're 130 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 2: also talking about marines, the coast Guard, so of course, 131 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:02,920 Speaker 2: you know, we see them every day out in our harbor, 132 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 2: and thank goodness, and you know, and I do think 133 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 2: we live in a world where and I'm I'm you 134 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 2: may agree with this, sometimes people take for granted who 135 00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 2: we have serving not only our interests here but beyond. 136 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: And we thank you and and for you to actually 137 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 2: see you in action, relaxing and having a good time. 138 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 2: That means a lot to us, especially in New York. 139 00:06:24,040 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: We welcome you as your hosts. I guess you know 140 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 2: what is not allowed while you're in uniform, while you're 141 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 2: walking around the streets of New York City. There's got 142 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 2: to be a list of things that I don't know. 143 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 2: Is there a physical list that you give them up 144 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 2: in a pencils? 145 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 4: So much a list as it is just our training 146 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 4: that we discuss these types of things. I mean, it's 147 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 4: we want you to be appropriate. We want you to 148 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 4: do things that we would you know, certainly nothing illegal, 149 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,200 Speaker 4: but you know, nothing political. You're not gonna, you know, 150 00:06:56,240 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: in uniform take a stand in a certain political position. 151 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 4: You're not gonna uh uh, you know, make do something 152 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 4: that would bring discredit upon the service. I guess this 153 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 4: is how it generalize it. So just go to professional 154 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 4: appropriate behavior. And if any of these guys said, hey, 155 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 4: what do you want us to do?

Uh. 186 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 4: Yes, to me, it's nationalism, patriotism what America stands for. 187 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 4: I think it's tied directly to our value system. 188 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: Uh. 189 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 4: You know, it's our whole culture here, this melting pod 190 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 4: that we've created. 191 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: Uh. 192 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 4: And this is what you see in our in our 193 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 4: armed forces and our navy. We are that melting pod. 194 00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 4: We are a diverse group group.

You even have a thousand planes. Yes, wow, 212 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 2: that's a big force. I mean I think about the 213 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 2: responsibilities we have.

Whether the pressures on 217 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 2: your shoulders are heavy, how do you get through a 218 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 2: day of stress? We all need to learn that from you. 219 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 4: Well, one, I get up about four in the morning 220 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,320 Speaker 4: every morning, so like you folks who do morning shows, 221 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 4: I get it very early. I found that four to 222 00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 4: five o'clock is about the only period I own. So 223 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 4: I'll work out then, and I come down and my 224 00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 4: beautiful bride Donna has a breakfast. You know, she's maybe 225 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:39,959 Speaker 4: kind of a smoothie and something to eat. 226 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,079 Speaker 1: And a bib hopefully. Yeah. Well this is pre white, 227 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,200 Speaker 1: so I'm good. 228 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 4: This is still you know, kind of workout clothed, right 229 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:48,959 Speaker 4: and but anyway, Yeah, so but then when I get 230 00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 4: to work, it is no kidding, pretty much back to 231 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 4: back to back and decision briefs and just trying to 232 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 4: make the you know, the right call. So it's at 233 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,480 Speaker 4: my level, at a headquarters level, it's a lot of 234 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 4: meetings and so we're trying to actually posture our forces 235 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:04,319 Speaker 4: in the right place on the earth. It's a lot 236 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 4: of budget decisions, money, you know, decisions on what we're 237 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 4: going to on that ship building. It's that type of thing. 238 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 2: Not to be too personal, but I may ask you 239 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 2: your age. No, I'm sixty. I'll be sixty one in September. 240 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:19,240 Speaker 2: I'll be sixty this August. So you and I have 241 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 2: grown up in the United States that has seen a 242 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,920 Speaker 2: lot come and go, come back, and go go away. 243 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 2: It's an interesting time. I guess it can be fair 244 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,720 Speaker 2: to say in the nineteen seventies you could have said 245 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 2: it's an interesting time. 246 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: It's always an interesting time. 247 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 2: I'm not saying any time is more spectacular than any 248 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:35,880 Speaker 2: other time that you and I have seen in the 249 00:11:35,960 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: United States. What do you believe we as Americans need 250 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 2: to brush up on in order to be not more 251 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 2: the military, but in the thinking of what we strive 252 00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 2: for to help our country become a better place. 253 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 4: Well, it's I think just a fundamental question. That's where 254 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 4: you land on that. I see a decline and usually, 255 00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 4: and I think historically you see this post conflict, we're 256 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 4: on a bit of a decay curve, I would call 257 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: it from our nationalism, our appreciation of what we are, 258 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 4: what our armed forces do every day, and so there 259 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 4: are usually some event that kind of recenters the country. 260 00:12:16,320 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 4: And so these events happen periodically, and it's not that 261 00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,959 Speaker 4: you're wanting something like that to happen, but I think 262 00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 4: you do get that coalescing and condensation, if you will, 263 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 4: of philosophy and everyone being on the same page and 264 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 4: then we kind of start diffusing again and kind of 265 00:12:29,440 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 4: going into our separate corners. The economy drives that a bit, 266 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,960 Speaker 4: you know, and how things are going. So I think 267 00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 4: it's Fleet weeks and things like that are those type 268 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,520 Speaker 4: of things where we get to come into a community 269 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,680 Speaker 4: and get people hope, and I think hope is so 270 00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:47,960 Speaker 4: important and that they get to see that the sky 271 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 4: is not falling. We've got great Americans, diverse group that 272 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,120 Speaker 4: are out there serving in our armed forces, and it 273 00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 4: just kind of, I think is a recentering moment for 274 00:12:58,200 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 4: a big city like New York. 275 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: It certainly is for us. 276 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 2: Remember after nine to eleven living here in New York 277 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:06,520 Speaker 2: City and our studios were looking at the World Trade 278 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,319 Speaker 2: Towers as they fell to the ground. But after the 279 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 2: aftermath was really where we learned the most, and that 280 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 2: was this nationalism. There's this this feeling of unity. But 281 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:22,720 Speaker 2: people who used to just bicker and bitch lack of 282 00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: a better word, at each other, we're now hugging each 283 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 2: other and trying to see what they could do for 284 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 2: each other. It took that reset, but it was just 285 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: an awful, awful price to pay for that reset. Well, 286 00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 2: I found in many countries, I hate to use the 287 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 2: word third world, but they're you know, they're not like 288 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 2: the United States. And you ask those folks when you 289 00:13:41,640 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 2: go there where they're from. They always say the local tribe, 290 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 2: their local community. You know, we have historically said we're Americans, 291 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:52,320 Speaker 2: and then we'll say, you know, I'm from the United States, 292 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 2: and then we kind of drilled down from there. When 293 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 2: you see that flipping around, I think that can be concerning. Wow, 294 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: it is just an honor to have you here in 295 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,040 Speaker 2: our studio today.

But having you here is it adds 300 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,680 Speaker 2: this gloss to this sometimes very tarnished town we live in, 301 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 2: and we thank you for that. 302 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: We we to be selfish.
