Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Gattie and he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 3: If I had a major figure in the President of Torbott,
Speaker 3: he was often on these calls. He would pipe in
Speaker 3: to calls he was helping him make campaign decisions.
Speaker 4: Such interjections by Hunter were seen as inappropriate by White
Speaker 4: House staff. That's according to a new book twenty twenty four,
Speaker 4: How Trump Retook the White House and the Democrats Lost America.
Speaker 3: The President was very concerned about his son. It was
Speaker 3: one of the things that was an albatross on him
Speaker 3: as he tried to run for reelection.
Speaker 2: Now I don't know this book. Is this a new
Speaker 2: book that is out? Is this a real book? I
Speaker 2: think so. Yeah.
Speaker 5: A trio of pretty well thought of authors twenty twenty four,
Speaker 5: How Trump Pretook the White House and the Democross Democrats
Speaker 5: Lost America.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's got.
Speaker 5: Some pretty interesting tidbit Senate that I've heard including it
Speaker 5: really goes into how Hunter was ever present in campaign meetings,
Speaker 5: sometimes even like cabinet level meetings, although he never met
Speaker 5: with his cabinet but high level meetings where he'd be
Speaker 5: on the speaker phone weighing in and people would be like,
Speaker 5: why the hell is a Hunter on the phone yelling
Speaker 5: at me and telling me what to do?
Speaker 2: Like the President invited him in? Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 2: huh And was he at the easel at the time, Like.
Speaker 5: He's unleashing his masterpieces on the world. Yes, yes, I
Speaker 5: believe he was. Let's roll on Michael.
Speaker 4: In the spring of last year, Hunter was going through
Speaker 4: his handgun trial, reporting to the federal courthouse in Wilmington, Delaware.
Speaker 4: In a preview of the book provided to The Wall
Speaker 4: Street Journal, the authors revealed that Hunter expressed interest in
Speaker 4: the Democratic National Committee picking up his legal fees.
Speaker 2: Quote.
Speaker 4: Lawyers ultimately decided the President should not be involved in
Speaker 4: fundraising for Hunter and the DNS he could not justify
Speaker 4: picking up Hunter's tab. The previews say continues by claiming
Speaker 4: that in June of twenty twenty four, President Biden told
Speaker 4: a close friend that all he cared about was his
Speaker 4: son not being convicted Matt Jalters.
Speaker 5: Biden and Jill went to the White House Council and said, Hey,
Speaker 5: what about having the DNC pay Hunter's legal pills? And
Speaker 5: if that doesn't work, or even if it does, if
Speaker 5: I were like to do fundraisers for his legal pills,
Speaker 5: how old that look.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you how it would look.
Speaker 5: All in the White House Council, to their credits said
Speaker 5: I'd stay away from that.
Speaker 2: Wow. So that's interesting. As an old man with dementia
Speaker 2: who'd lost several children, his number one focus was keeping
Speaker 2: Hunter out of jail and having him not be bankrupt.
Speaker 2: That's interesting. Yeah, final short clip from Alexandria Hoff.
Speaker 4: This book comes as co author Tyler Pager post page
Speaker 4: one of an alleged six page memo from President biden
Speaker 4: senior advisors urging him to participate in a bait with
Speaker 4: then candidate Trump. Quote as early as possible.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, go ahead. I was just going to say.
Speaker 5: Biden's White House Chief of Staff Jeff Zience, coordinated video
Speaker 5: call with key Biden staffers, including a bunch of others
Speaker 5: that you've heard of, to discuss whether Biden should provide
Speaker 5: an on camera statement to the Supreme Court's July twenty
Speaker 5: twenty four decision. While Donlin already had drafted a written statement,
Speaker 5: Biden wanted to speak about the matter on camera. The
Speaker 5: book claimed staffers on the call started to hash out
Speaker 5: the specifics. When Biden's son started to chime in on
Speaker 5: the call. Suddenly, an ununidentified voice piped up from Biden's
Speaker 5: screen and recommended an Oval Office address. At first, some
Speaker 5: aids had no idea who's speaking. It soon became clear
Speaker 5: the voice belonged to Hunter. Biden to the White House
Speaker 5: staff had not known was on the call, and several
Speaker 5: people expressed concern about that plan about using the Oval
Speaker 5: Office for a speech. Hunter snapped back, this is one
Speaker 5: of the most consequential decisions Supreme Court has ever made,
Speaker 5: said his father, out every right to use the powerful
Speaker 5: imagery of the Oval Office to deliver the message. They
Speaker 5: later settled on a different plan. But everybody who's walking
Speaker 5: around grumblin, who the hell is heay? I Hunter yelling
Speaker 5: at us.
Speaker 2: I'll bet Hunter and or Jill were in all these
Speaker 2: meetings because they knew that at any given moment, Joe
Speaker 2: wasn't capable of speaking up for himself or wasn't paying attention.
Speaker 2: That's why they were there. I want to hear one
Speaker 2: more thing here about this book, and then I've got
Speaker 2: an interesting historical note about why we shouldn't believe anything
Speaker 2: we hear about any president. But this is Byron York
Speaker 2: of the Washington Examiner, who's read the book.
Speaker 6: Biden was known as a senator as kind of a
Speaker 6: walking gaff machine. So that was a reputation he.
Speaker 2: Had for a long time.
Speaker 6: And yet anybody who looks at Joe Biden, video of
Speaker 6: Joe Biden, for example, when he became the vice president
Speaker 6: of the United States with Barack Obama in two thousand
Speaker 6: and nine and when they were re elected in twenty twelve,
Speaker 6: look at those videos and look at him even in
Speaker 6: the twenty twenty campaign, and certainly by the last year
Speaker 6: of his presidency in twenty twenty three and twenty twenty four,
Speaker 6: there was a remarkable decline.
Speaker 2: Everybody could say it Will Trod, that's Will Trod ground.
Speaker 2: I thought that was going to be. So there is
Speaker 2: a section of the book where there was a joke
Speaker 2: among the staffers about how many times did he claim
Speaker 2: today that he flew with Jijingping? Oh boy, because of
Speaker 2: his never ending stories that he would tell no matter
Speaker 2: how many times they were debunked by various newspapers. God,
Speaker 2: so the historical note, and this is the thing I
Speaker 2: really wanted to talk about was. I'm reading this new
Speaker 2: World War two book by this guy last named Tall Toll,
Speaker 2: and for some reason, I had missed this trilogy that
Speaker 2: came out in the two thousand, very very highly respected
Speaker 2: trilogy about the Pacific War. I'm reading the third one first.
Speaker 2: I skipped the first two because we're coming up on
Speaker 2: you know how we just did the eightieth anniversary of
Speaker 2: the end of the war in Europe. We're coming up
Speaker 2: on the eightieth anniversary of the end of the war
Speaker 2: war with the finally beating the Japanese. Reading this book
Speaker 2: and it's so damn good and interesting. I mean, even
Speaker 2: as a guy's taken in so much World War two stuff,
Speaker 2: this is a fantastic book. But all this stuff about
Speaker 2: FDR that i'd never heard before. And I talked last
Speaker 2: week or before vacation a little bit about like I
Speaker 2: didn't know. When FDR decided to run for a third term,
Speaker 2: the press turned on him hard all across the country.
Speaker 2: You know, he's so FDR is so held up in
Speaker 2: high esteem now by all historians of the media. Is
Speaker 2: like the the the the gold standard of what a
Speaker 2: president should be. But man, he's a godhead of the
Speaker 2: left in the middle of his four term, you know,
Speaker 2: four terms, he won election, the press turned on him hard.
Speaker 2: Two thirds of papers across of America didn't endorse him
Speaker 2: when he ran for the third time, so it's like,
Speaker 2: what are you doing? And then when he decided to
Speaker 2: run for a fourth term, it was met with like
Speaker 2: you've got to be freaking kidding by the press. And
Speaker 2: FDR had such a bad relationship with the press as
Speaker 2: he decided to run for that fourth term. There's a
Speaker 2: quote in there. I should have written it down, but
Speaker 2: it was something like he wasn't talking to anybody anymore.
Speaker 2: It was Biden esk. He just would not talk to
Speaker 2: the press. He stopped having press conferences, he stopped answering questions.
Speaker 2: And somebody brought that up to him, and he said,
Speaker 2: to me, the First Amendment is one of the most
Speaker 2: overrated things in world history or something like that, FDR said.
Speaker 2: But on the health, which really gets to the Joe
Speaker 2: Biden thing, he had just been diagnosed with the congestive
Speaker 2: heart failure, which at that time there was no way
Speaker 2: to cure or treat, and you were going to live
Speaker 2: like a year maybe, and a doctor knew that, but
Speaker 2: he had a different doctor, a White House doctor, as
Speaker 2: presidents do, not the physician who diagnosed him whatever, but
Speaker 2: as all presidents do. The White House doctor went out
Speaker 2: actually said how biden esque is this? Actually said he's
Speaker 2: Franklin Roosevelt is in better shape than when he ran
Speaker 2: in thirty three. That's what the doctors told America, and
Speaker 2: the media who were close enough to have some idea,
Speaker 2: were like, what is going on here? Wow? My point being,
Speaker 2: We've done this a bunch of times and you just
Speaker 2: can't trust anything that comes out of power. Power will
Speaker 2: lie and lie and lie if it serves them to
Speaker 2: stay in office.
Speaker 5: Correct, Yeah, yeah, And I love the fact that you
Speaker 5: said power, because that's what it's all about. To hold
Speaker 5: onto the reins of power or to gain them, people
Speaker 5: will do and say anything.
Speaker 2: And they justified it with people convincing themselves the same
Speaker 2: way with Joe Biden. Well, you know he's got dementia
Speaker 2: and he shouldn't be in the job. But the alternative
Speaker 2: is Trump. So as a good American, I'm gonna keep
Speaker 2: biting office. They did the same thing with FDR with
Speaker 2: the idea he's the only man that can finish this war,
Speaker 2: and you know, keep the alliance together. So it's important
Speaker 2: for me as a patriot to lie about his health
Speaker 2: and everything. And so you just convince yourself and you
Speaker 2: go along with it. It doesn't have anything to do with
Speaker 2: You've got the coolest job in the world as the
Speaker 2: you know, Secretary of State or chief of staff or
Speaker 2: whatever it is, and you would lose that job if
Speaker 2: you came out and we're off. Honest, No, it's all
Speaker 2: because you're a good patriot. You convince yourself of that. Yeah, yep,
Speaker 2: troubling democracy doesn't work. No, but why we have to
Speaker 2: relearn the lesson over and over again that power will
Speaker 2: lie just endlessly. I don't know.
Speaker 5: You're dealing with very very smart people who craft very
Speaker 5: very attractive lives.
Speaker 2: Well, the other side of it, the flip coin. The
Speaker 2: flip side of the coin, though, is the people in
Speaker 2: power realize these details won't come out for decades and
Speaker 2: it won't matter then right, right, Yes, let's do whatever
Speaker 2: we want. Yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 5: I have a handful of really interesting stories about the
Speaker 5: final days of the Biden administration, including somebody who ought
Speaker 5: to go to jail, but it'll probably just go away.
Speaker 2: A complete side note, and this is narrow casting. The
Speaker 2: stuff about Douglas MacArthur and what a phony build up
Speaker 2: of his image was just so America would have a
Speaker 2: hero to worship is really interesting and another thing we
Speaker 2: should all watch out for when that sort of thing
Speaker 2: can occur. Sure.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well I said, We've had really interesting discussions through
Speaker 5: the years, at least they were to me about secrecy
Speaker 5: in warfare and propaganda in warfare. Yeah, and how a
Speaker 5: lot of it is not entirely honest, but it's necessary.
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, I'm not. That's a slope where the footing
Speaker 2: isn't real good. No, it's not. And as a quote
Speaker 2: in Eisenhower in the book about America needed a hero
Speaker 2: and the media created one for them. He couldn't stand MacArthur,
Speaker 2: thought he was a complete phoney. But you know, so
Speaker 2: maybe America didn't need to hurt a hero to worship
Speaker 2: or whatever. But my point being, you get lied to
Speaker 2: all time, right, yeah, agreed? Coming up gender bending Madness Update,
Speaker 2: New Hope addition, and don't you dare get a Brazilian
Speaker 2: butt lift until you hear about the disgusting side effect
Speaker 2: that is very common. What do you think I was
Speaker 2: doing on vacation? The reason I took that extra day.
Speaker 2: Oh no, you know, I noticed you're a little perk
Speaker 2: here back there, So fake explains the using horrible, disgusting
Speaker 2: side effect. That's all the waist they here. Over the weekend,
Speaker 2: the rapper known as four Extra lost two fingers in
Speaker 2: a fireworks accident. He's now changed his name to three Left.
Speaker 2: The good news is he's no longer throwing up gang signs.
Speaker 5: You know, I saw that first punchline coming, but I
Speaker 5: enjoyed it a lot. Three Left and get it and
Speaker 5: be capable of fireworks, kids, gender manning, madness uptake coming
Speaker 5: up next segment, But first, a handful of consumer oriented
Speaker 5: stories that I found intriguing and or amusing. A Wall
Speaker 5: Street Journal reporting vanity sizing is forcing petit women into kids' clothes,
Speaker 5: changing styles, and the supersizing of apparel is pushing shoppers
Speaker 5: to unusual lengths to find something that fits. And the
Speaker 5: subheadline is so much glitter, Yeah you better like sparkles. Yeah,
Speaker 5: the petit women who have been forced to go for
Speaker 5: children's sizes because the American girth has been increasing.
Speaker 2: More on that in a moment. But everybody knows this right.
Speaker 5: The apparel industry for years has been employing vanity sizing,
Speaker 5: making clothes larger and larger while keeping the sizes the same,
Speaker 5: making matters worse for slender shoppers. Is a current fashioned
Speaker 5: woman in which oversized looks are in vogue. The result
Speaker 5: clothes so big that slender people are swimming in them.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I know it's true. With young people, they're all
Speaker 2: wearing super giant, baggy clothes.
Speaker 5: This Gallow's five to fives try petque clothing, but because
Speaker 5: those fits are designed for shorter people, the shirt sleeves
Speaker 5: stop above her wrists and the jeans don't even graze
Speaker 5: her ankles. Children's clothes fit better, but the styles aren't sophisticated.
Speaker 5: Too many flowers and so much glitter. Final note on this,
Speaker 5: The average American woman weighs about one hundred and seventy pounds,
Speaker 5: which is thirty pounds more than she did in nineteen sixty.
Speaker 5: According to the National Center for Health Statistics, average is
Speaker 5: one seventy That is correct? Is that average or median?
Speaker 5: Because if there's like one fifty thousand pound woman that's
Speaker 5: trus it's like the Bill Gates walks into a bar
Speaker 5: thing right, your net worth, your average networth et cetera,
Speaker 5: et cetera.
Speaker 2: Bill Gates could walk into a bar and change the
Speaker 2: average in net worth if fifty thousand pound woman is
Speaker 2: not going to roll into the bar or probably the buffet. No,
Speaker 2: oh my, that was insensitive up thousand pounds.
Speaker 5: She needs some tough talk. Look at yourself when you
Speaker 5: hit thirty thousand. Didn't you think you know?
Speaker 2: I gotta change something. It's Katie, this is terrible. There's
Speaker 2: something terribly wrong here. Because the average height for a
Speaker 2: woman is five to three. So if we're averaging at
Speaker 2: one seventy, that seems pretty portly. Yeah, yeah, I don't
Speaker 2: think that that sounds high to me. That sounds really
Speaker 2: you arguing with the name National Center for Health Statistics.
Speaker 2: I guess I am, but that just that sounds high
Speaker 2: to me. There's a lot more to get to, Okay.
Speaker 2: The Brazilian butt lift surgery is a procedure that enhances
Speaker 2: the size and shape of someone's rear end through a
Speaker 2: fat transfer. Don't I know what, I've had two of them.
Speaker 5: It's often consented the dangerous procedure by experts since there's
Speaker 5: a possibility of death, infection, and more. I would restructure
Speaker 5: that sentence. Once you have death. Infection is kind of irrelevant, right,
Speaker 5: but more the more. But this popular and freaking stupid surgery.
Speaker 5: Do you seriously think having a bigger butt is going
Speaker 5: to materially change your life?
Speaker 2: It's for the better. It's for bigger or higher a lift.
Speaker 2: It's it's both. I'd like mine higher. It makes it
Speaker 2: not only higher.
Speaker 5: Not only is BBL surgery risky, there's one bizarre, rather
Speaker 5: gross side effect that comes along that the potential patients
Speaker 5: should consider. It's called the BBL smell and it is real.
Speaker 5: So this doctor, what uh? There's often a smell expected
Speaker 5: for BBL patients after sweating or sitting for long periods,
Speaker 5: an aggressive.
Speaker 2: Scent because I'm guessing because you have crevasses. No, no, uh.
Speaker 5: There are tissue death, which is a BBL complication, and
Speaker 5: unhygienic habits that could cause someone with BBBL to have
Speaker 5: a smelly be hunt.
Speaker 2: This is the worst thing ever done by a lot. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I am issuing an important warning to people who might
Speaker 2: fall prey to this insidious procedure. If a patient was
Speaker 2: quote overfilled with fat during the procedure, fat necrosis, which
Speaker 2: is when faty tissue in the butt dies, can occur
Speaker 2: as a result of RADSID smell develops. Well, yeah, I
Speaker 2: imagine you smell like a dead body.
Speaker 5: Yes, infections that need antibiotics, hospitalizations, and even that lead
Speaker 5: to sepsis.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, this has been a treat, Thanks Joe. What
Speaker 2: is that coloni you're wearing? Black plague? Who is that
Speaker 2: dead raccoon? No, that's my BBL surgery gone wrang, I'm
Speaker 2: telling you, ladies. Oh beautiful owaar right, God, you gotta
Speaker 2: wear the kids clothes and you smell like a dead body, and.
Speaker 5: Things are going well for you. Gender bending Madness Good
Speaker 5: News edition.
Speaker 2: Coming up next. If you can't stick around, subscribe to the.
Speaker 1: Podcast Are Strong and Getty.
Speaker 2: It is the overwhelming majority of us, especially those competing
Speaker 2: at the elite level, are of the mindset that it's wrong.
Speaker 4: It's unfair, it's regressive, it's harmful to have.
Speaker 2: Men in our sports and men in our locker rooms.
Speaker 5: The Great Riley Gaines hero fighting against gender bending madness.
Speaker 2: It's time for an update. There's Hope edition.
Speaker 7: So I kept hearing about this thing called.
Speaker 2: The loco. We're a brave world. No, I like that thing.
Speaker 2: At the end, it reminds you of being in South Beach, Man,
Speaker 2: was there a lot of uh Pride Month going on
Speaker 2: in South Beach in Key West? Although when you live
Speaker 2: in northern California, didn't see any different than a normal day. Really?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I suppose so. So some gender banning madness updates
Speaker 5: for you. First of all, the Supreme Court has announced
Speaker 5: it will take up the blockbuster case on transgender athletes
Speaker 5: joining girls teams.
Speaker 2: That means boys boys. I'm going to really confuse this.
Speaker 5: There's a great piece I read recently about how confusing
Speaker 5: it is to everybody. And you've expressed this the whole
Speaker 5: a transgender man and everybody's like, I can't remember which.
Speaker 2: Thing ye is? Right? Yeah? Exactly, Well and interestingly enough
Speaker 2: to me not to get off on this for too
Speaker 2: long a time, but to say, a transgender woman that
Speaker 2: is conceding that that is a woman and you shouldn't
Speaker 2: because that person is not.
Speaker 5: I'm for saying a dude, a transgender dude, that is
Speaker 5: a dude who's trying to appear as come off as
Speaker 5: present as a woman.
Speaker 2: But again, that would further confuse it.
Speaker 5: Yeah, So the Supreme Court is going to review Idahoes
Speaker 5: and West Virginia's bands on transgender athletes joining female sports teams. Again,
Speaker 5: that's dudes, just weeks after the Court's conservative majority upheld
Speaker 5: Tennessee's ban on puberty blockers and hormone therapies and cruel
Speaker 5: experiments on Milne.
Speaker 2: Very different topics though, so I'd be interesting to see.
Speaker 2: So they're going to take it up next year, I disagree.
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, I mean, clearly they're different, although they all
Speaker 5: come back to the same question. Is radical gender theory
Speaker 5: supportable by any scientific measure or any reasonable measure.
Speaker 2: It's the idea that you can choose whether you're a
Speaker 2: man or a woman. Man getting a fire. I can't
Speaker 2: believe it's taken this long. We're going to get a
Speaker 2: final ruling from the Supreme Court, I hope on whether
Speaker 2: or not dudes can be in girls' sports. That would
Speaker 2: And like I know, like I've said before, I think
Speaker 2: a lot of the people who out loud are claiming
Speaker 2: they're all for this will love the Supreme Court to
Speaker 2: weigh one way or the other and it just be over.
Speaker 2: They don't have to worry about it anymore. If you
Speaker 2: had brought this up ten years ago, it would be
Speaker 2: like saying, yeah, the Supreme courts can to rule on
Speaker 2: whether gravity generally pulls objects towards the earthwame whether dogs
Speaker 2: can vote. Right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, The USA Today, which I'm quoting intentionally because it
Speaker 5: is hilariously idiotically left wing, says more than half states
Speaker 5: have passed laws preventing transgender athletes from competing on female
Speaker 5: sports teams.
Speaker 2: That's because they're dudes.
Speaker 5: They've passed laws preventing dudes from competing on female sports teams,
Speaker 5: saying they're trying to prevent competitive advantages. The laws don't
Speaker 5: take into account someone's athletic ability or how far they
Speaker 5: are in transgtioning to another gender. That's because you can't.
Speaker 5: And because they're dudes is why they're they're fellas.
Speaker 2: So how big a deal do you think this will
Speaker 2: be as a Supreme Court case? Will this be like
Speaker 2: huge huge? You think like gay marriage huge or well, no,
Speaker 2: partly because this is a fairly small number of people,
Speaker 2: and it's more calling bulls on a ridiculous, radical fringe
Speaker 2: theory that nobody believed except in the outer reaches of
Speaker 2: academia until very very recently. Well I don't know the
Speaker 2: question said.
Speaker 5: They were so vicious about it, they got miles beyond
Speaker 5: anywhere they should have.
Speaker 2: I don't know the specific situation they're looking at, and
Speaker 2: as often happens with the Supreme Court, they could gain
Speaker 2: end up with a very narrow ruling that applies only
Speaker 2: to that situation.
Speaker 5: Right right, So we gave short shrift to the announcement
Speaker 5: by the University of Pennsylvania the other day, as the
Speaker 5: editors of the National Review put it, a blow to
Speaker 5: trans insanity, a victory for common sense. What a difference
Speaker 5: a couple of years in a new administration make A
Speaker 5: University of Pennsylvania issued a statement last week announcing it
Speaker 5: would comply with the Trump administration's title line policies and
Speaker 5: single sex sports in a signal victory for common sense
Speaker 5: women's sports and the administration. According to the press release
Speaker 5: from the Department of Education, the school will adopt quote
Speaker 5: biology based definitions of male and female.
Speaker 2: As if there are any other definitions.
Speaker 5: To ensure the integrity of single sex teams and facilities
Speaker 5: like locker rooms, the university must also try to make amends.
Speaker 5: It will restore to female swimmers all individual records, titles,
Speaker 5: or recognitions previously given to male athletes, and it must
Speaker 5: send a personalized apology letter to the impacted female swimmers,
Speaker 5: sorry about There's no need folks to ever go beyond
Speaker 5: male and female in this discussion.
Speaker 2: On personal letter of apology, sorry about that signed the college.
Speaker 2: In other words, it was a near total capitulation by
Speaker 2: an institution that was at the forefront of the trans
Speaker 2: insanity in sports.
Speaker 5: About three years ago. They get into the details of
Speaker 5: Leah Thomas Oh the presidents of the university president's letter.
Speaker 5: While Penn's policies during the twenty one to twenty two
Speaker 5: swim season were in accordance with NCA eligibility rules at
Speaker 5: the time, we acknowledge that some student athletes were disadvantaged
Speaker 5: by these rules.
Speaker 2: You think we will wreck denies.
Speaker 5: This and apologize to those who experienced a competitive disadvantage
Speaker 5: or experienced anxiety because of the policies in effect at
Speaker 5: the time.
Speaker 2: Anxiety, Yeah, that's what I suffer from. Anxiety because as
Speaker 2: a nineteen year old girl, I got to see a
Speaker 2: giant dude's wang when I'm changing clothes and then get
Speaker 2: whooped up on in the pool after spending my whole
Speaker 2: life trying to become an elite woman swimmer.
Speaker 5: Yeah, as the National Review editors right. Of course, competitive
Speaker 5: disadvantage is a euphemism for discrimination, denial of opportunity, and
Speaker 5: stolen awards, while experienced anxiety is a slighting way to
Speaker 5: put the normal reaction of female athletes forced to share
Speaker 5: locker rooms with males. The university repeats the same tired
Speaker 5: verbiage about committing quote being committed to fostering a community
Speaker 5: that is welcoming, inclusive, and open all students, faculty, and staff.
Speaker 2: Not too long ago, in the name of.
Speaker 5: These ideals, the school reservedly supported Thomas well, ignoring his
Speaker 5: female teammates. I would cribble that they actually browbeat them
Speaker 5: and bullied them. In twenty twenty one, Penn Athletics shamelessly
Speaker 5: boasted that Thomas Quote delivered another record breaking performance at
Speaker 5: an event.
Speaker 2: This is a six foot four inch.
Speaker 5: Man, and Quote won the race by nearly seven seconds
Speaker 5: and her time was the fastest in the country. Yeah,
Speaker 5: of course he did. We noted at the time that
Speaker 5: Thomas was an average swimmer for the men's swimming division. Nonetheless,
Speaker 5: than twenty twenty two, the university.
Speaker 2: Nominated Dude Thomas for the NCAA Woman of the Year Award. Wow,
Speaker 2: A dude and again the women were browbeaten and bullied
Speaker 2: and threatened with losing their scholarships and the rest of it.
Speaker 2: Three years ago.
Speaker 5: Moving along now that they're no longer afraid for their
Speaker 5: scholarships and social pressure and that sort of thing, all
Speaker 5: of Leah Thomas's so called teammates are coming out and saying,
Speaker 5: thank god Monica Brazinska around Lea. I wasn't going to
Speaker 5: risk anything. She just ended up changing in other places,
Speaker 5: left the locker room at her inconvenience. As a season
Speaker 5: dragged on, she became less and less comfortable, just avoided it.
Speaker 5: A couple other of the teammates are quoted here as
Speaker 5: saying it was bizarre. It was like a surreal thing happening,
Speaker 5: because they would say, this is a guy, and they
Speaker 5: would be.
Speaker 2: Yelled at that's a woman. You're a bigot if you
Speaker 2: say otherwise. Wow, it had to be surreal, like you
Speaker 2: couldn't believe it was.
Speaker 5: Happening, right right, and then you know, I'm looking at
Speaker 5: you know. It's mostly good news these days. But Slate
Speaker 5: dot com, the liberal news outlet, says U Penn's capitulation
Speaker 5: of the Trump administration is disgraceful. Wow, and this writer,
Speaker 5: this Julie Kleegman, goes into the extremely rare existence of
Speaker 5: folks with ambiguous gentalia, internal testicles, xx y chromosomes, that
Speaker 5: sort of thing, and says, because those people exist, a big,
Speaker 5: hulking dude who just says, yeah, I'm a woman now
Speaker 5: ought to be allowed to dominate powerlifting. It is a
Speaker 5: very strange argument. And I feel for somebody who's like,
Speaker 5: lives for athletics and it turns.
Speaker 2: Out they are a woman but.
Speaker 5: Have internal testicles and especially high levels of those are
Speaker 5: vary of testosterone. Those are very rare cases, but it's troubling.
Speaker 5: I feel for those gals. It's got to be confusing
Speaker 5: and disconcerting. And then the final note, the state of
Speaker 5: cal Unicornia has announced officially they will not submit to
Speaker 5: the Justice Department's Title nine complaint, and California will spend
Speaker 5: tens of millions of taxpayer dollars fighting to let boys
Speaker 5: continue to compete on girls teams. If they've got a
Speaker 5: little eyeshadow on, way to go, California. Way to stand
Speaker 5: up for what's good and right. It's gender bending madness.
Speaker 2: So California is gonna fight that until the Supreme Court rules,
Speaker 2: and then that will be a rallying cry for an
Speaker 2: election about vote for Gavin Newsom for president whoever, because
Speaker 2: Hill appoints Supreme Justice Superpreme Court justices that will overturn
Speaker 2: this madness. Right.
Speaker 5: The strategy being that that hardcore radical, very small percentage
Speaker 5: of Americans that believes boys ought to be able to
Speaker 5: be on girls teams if they throw on a little eyeshadow,
Speaker 5: and that's again, it's shrinking all the time. The idea
Speaker 5: being that that hardcore will get you the nomination, and
Speaker 5: then you tack.
Speaker 2: Toward the center, like he did pathetically on Charlie kirkch podcast.
Speaker 5: I just on a pure strategic level, never mind what's
Speaker 5: saying and what's right and what's good. I don't even
Speaker 5: think it makes sense on that level.
Speaker 2: Some AI, somebody who was using AI to sound like
Speaker 2: Marco Rubio and actually was able to talk to foreign diplomats. No,
Speaker 2: which is a three foreign ministers, a US governor, and
Speaker 2: a member of Congress as fake AI Marco Rubio. We'll
Speaker 2: get to that story later. That's a good one. Among
Speaker 2: other things.
Speaker 1: Stay with us, Alick Scooper, all right, Daddy gang and
Speaker 1: cuffs fans, are you ready, you've never seen.
Speaker 2: Something like this before. A one hun two on three
Speaker 2: were two of all.
Speaker 7: To the Crown, Cray good jack, appropriate booing, drag her
Speaker 7: onto the field, drag her all the starter.
Speaker 2: So she's from that podcast Call Me Daddy. She's from
Speaker 2: the famous call Me Daddy podcast that was an attempt
Speaker 2: to uh, you know, get what she got played on
Speaker 2: our radio show in lots of different places for getting attention.
Speaker 2: The reason people were booing was not that the you know,
Speaker 2: singing is bad. You're you're taking something that people like
Speaker 2: and is a tradition and he came with your kids
Speaker 2: of the game and you're mocking it basically right for
Speaker 2: your attention for your career. Yeah, you're you're you're mocking
Speaker 2: what we're all here to enjoy. Yeah, So that is
Speaker 2: a very booable offense. Yeah, in my opinion. Speaking of sports,
Speaker 2: mentioned briefly yesterday, the WNBA has a weird problem with
Speaker 2: their professional sports league that I don't think any professional
Speaker 2: sports league has ever had their most popular player, maybe
Speaker 2: their best player, but their most popular player by far
Speaker 2: is hated by the other players. So they did the
Speaker 2: All Star voting in fan voting, Caitlin Clark who the
Speaker 2: league president said is the most popular athlete in America
Speaker 2: and might very well be. Caitlin Clark set a new record,
Speaker 2: beating last year's record by just dominant number of votes
Speaker 2: to be on the All Star team. The media voted
Speaker 2: her in third, the player's ninth among guards. I believe
Speaker 2: so in the ninth guard. So wow. The players don't
Speaker 2: dig it. And Caitlin Clark in terms of her effect
Speaker 2: on the league, merchandise sales have risen six hundred percent
Speaker 2: all merchandise sales since she entered the WNBA. She's responsible
Speaker 2: for almost thirty percent of all WNBA economic activity by
Speaker 2: yourself and ratings for games and blah blah, blah blah.
Speaker 2: She's the best thing that ever happened to that sport
Speaker 2: by far right right, and the other players either resent
Speaker 2: it or I don't know exactly what's going on there.
Speaker 5: Well, you've got the racial thing going on, and it's
Speaker 5: not coincidental or not unimportant that we're talking about a
Speaker 5: league full of young women who tend to be wildly
Speaker 5: left political and really into the grievance thing and grievance
Speaker 5: studies and racializing everything. And there's the sexual thing too,
Speaker 5: Caitlin is straight in a league that's dominated by lesbian players,
Speaker 5: and so yeah, they hate her, and in every other
Speaker 5: league of any other sport around the planet they think.
Speaker 5: You know, I'm not you know, I'm kind of bothered
Speaker 5: by this, but man, it's a gravy train. So we'll
Speaker 5: just say pleasant things and move on with our lives.
Speaker 5: But no, because they're young women and they're so political
Speaker 5: they can't restrain themselves. Seems odd to me that you
Speaker 5: just don't.
Speaker 2: Like either respect her game as somebody who has dedicated
Speaker 2: your life to it, and like think, wow, this is great.
Speaker 2: People are watching us more than they ever have. We
Speaker 2: got packed stadiums, we got we're getting on TV channels
Speaker 2: we've never gotten on before. This is fantastic, great example
Speaker 2: of how ideology makes people into fools. They are way
Speaker 2: more into.
Speaker 5: Their cult than their own success or the success of
Speaker 5: their league.
Speaker 2: But that's not a lot of fun if you're Caitlin Clark.
Speaker 2: Uh no to to know so many of the players
Speaker 2: resent you that way. I mean, it's one thing that
Speaker 2: you know, the rivalries of we hate you know, the
Speaker 2: other guy on the other team, their star player. That's
Speaker 2: different though you know that they hate you because you're
Speaker 2: so good. Uh, you know, it's a competitive thing, and
Speaker 2: you kind of like that, you like being the villain.
Speaker 2: But when then when they like personally dislike you because
Speaker 2: you're straight or white or whatever, that's got to be
Speaker 2: very hurtful.
Speaker 5: It is hurtful, Jack, but not as hurtful as spot fixing.
Speaker 5: Do you know about spot fixing? My classic Joe Getty transition?
Speaker 2: No, I don't know what spot fixing is.
Speaker 5: Spot Fixing has been scandalizing sports all over the planet,
Speaker 5: and now it's come to America with the computerized sports betting.
Speaker 5: It's one of the most pernicious forms of corruption of
Speaker 5: sports that's ever been witnessed. And like the murder hornet
Speaker 5: or what was that, the latest killer be to invade
Speaker 5: our shores, it is now here. And they begin this
Speaker 5: story with Cleveland pitchers. Cleveland Guardians pitcher Luis Ortiz began
Speaker 5: the third inning of his recent outing by throwing a
Speaker 5: slider in the dirt ball one, no problem. He's thrown
Speaker 5: more than fifty hundred pitches this season. The third of
Speaker 5: them have been balls out of the strike zone. There's
Speaker 5: no reason to think twice about one that slipped. But
Speaker 5: within the gambling industry. Alarms were blaring. You can bet
Speaker 5: on will the first pitch of the inning be a
Speaker 5: ball or a strike from this pitcher? Or this you know,
Speaker 5: will this batter do? There are never ending lists of propositions,
Speaker 5: and a betting integrity firm, which is a thing, had
Speaker 5: identified unusual wagering activity on that specific pitch being a ball.
Speaker 5: And there was another first pitch of an inning that
Speaker 5: Arties threw that you couldn't have hit with two bats
Speaker 5: nailed together, it was so far outside. There was unusual
Speaker 5: activity on that pitch being a ball.
Speaker 2: With the insinuation that he's in on the deal in
Speaker 2: somehow profiting he.
Speaker 5: Is now what is suspended a non what do they
Speaker 5: call it? A non disciplinary leave while they investigate the matter.
Speaker 5: Digital tiny parts of games that nobody would notice are
Speaker 5: being fixed by players now all over the world for profit.
Speaker 2: That's interesting. We got to talk more about that. If
