And we've talked about this over 34 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 3: the years. Every little once in a while, every few 35 00:01:57,320 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: years you get a really really strong signal from the 36 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: options market. And on Monday morning before the opening, there 37 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 3: was abject panic. And if you look at the last 38 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: forty years, every time you buy abject panic, a year 39 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 3: later you've made money. 40 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 2: I got to ask, interrupting, what does abject panic look like? 41 00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 2: At Evercore Isi with Ediheyman with a black marker, and 42 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,440 Speaker 2: his is what does abject panic look like? 43 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 3: Well, the Fortress signment, well we know it looked like 44 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 3: vix hitting sixty five, but there was a very frank 45 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: and open debate about whether the FED was behind the 46 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,920 Speaker 3: curve and what should they do, and the consensus was 47 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: is that this too shall pass, and the Fed's going 48 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 3: to cut in September, and lo and behold if the 49 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,919 Speaker 3: FED actually cuts in September, and the recession, which there's 50 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 3: still lots of elements of weakness out there forming, and 51 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 3: we know that if the recession holds off until twenty twenty, 52 00:03:01,240 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 3: we certainly think we have further to go in the rally. 53 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: Chilian, You've written a wonderful note encouraging us to exercise 54 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 1: calm at moments like this. How do we do that? 55 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,800 Speaker 1: What's giving you optimism that this too shall pass? 56 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 2: Well? 57 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 3: I think this is again one of these very strange 58 00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,280 Speaker 3: times where if you think about the Bank of Japan, 59 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: their timing was absolutely off, terrible in hiking rates. And 60 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:29,640 Speaker 3: the way I think about this, and it really actually 61 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 3: makes sense allegorically, is when the FED first hiked rates 62 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 3: in December of twenty fifteen, and it was you know, oops, 63 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: I did it again. They didn't hike for another year. 64 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: You actually set off a freeze in the credit markets 65 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 3: that was happening anyway because of energy and then you 66 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 3: had an incredibly strong year in twenty sixteen. And that's 67 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,120 Speaker 3: how we see the table setting up. It's you know, 68 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 3: it's pick away at the names and the themes that 69 00:03:59,080 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 3: you like. 70 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,000 Speaker 1: What do you say to those who are more pessimistic, 71 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,119 Speaker 1: shall we say when they look at earnings from say 72 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: these big tech companies AI specialists in particular, and worry 73 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 1: that the promise of this isn't meeting reality at least 74 00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: not yet. 75 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 3: Well, Look, adoption of AI on the corporate route level 76 00:04:17,920 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 3: is slower than we would have expected. 77 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:20,920 Speaker 1: But the way we. 78 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 3: Think about it is, and Tom, I know you'll remember 79 00:04:23,960 --> 00:04:26,159 Speaker 3: this because I was there as well, but in the 80 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 3: early nineties you brought your own personal computer to work 81 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: because corporate America hadn't adopted personal computers yet, and then. 82 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: All of a sudden they did. 83 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 3: That's what's going to happen here. 84 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 1: John Authur's talking to me about this earlier this week, 85 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: Tom saying this. 86 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 2: Is on the big tip. 87 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 1: It is on the did you see side. 88 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 2: Do you see how Curry gets a big take plug. 89 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 1: In that was like a shameless plug alleoop that we continue, please, 90 00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: but making the point that you look at how adoption 91 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,880 Speaker 1: of the Internet went, and that took many years before 92 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 1: it became a thing. In all the while, you saw 93 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: these companies kind of fall into the ways I digress. 94 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 2: Go ahead, No, it's like poetry there for a moment. 95 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 2: What you don't know, folks, is Julian Emmanuel has the 96 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: must read morning note in the equity markets. We're in 97 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 2: one single paragraph. He parses out revenue and earnings dynamics. 98 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 2: If you get ed Heiman's economy, don't you get a 99 00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 2: lower nominal GDP? And do you model out revenue coming 100 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: in revenue growth? 101 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 3: It is likely to be slower than it has been. 102 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 3: But you know, anything that's call it north of two 103 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: and a half to three percent is going to be 104 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 3: just fine. 105 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 2: Rations will adapt. 106 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: And what's interesting is, and remember, we have been as 107 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 3: a society, been waiting for this recession for two years 108 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 3: for the most part. And I would suggest to you 109 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:57,080 Speaker 3: that part of the reason that margins have stayed as 110 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 3: elevated as they've been is because corporate America has been 111 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 3: waiting as well and has already begun the process of adaptation. 112 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 3: And so for us, even if we do get a downturn, 113 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,800 Speaker 3: it is likely to be mild. It will certainly have 114 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 3: an effect on the stock market. 115 00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 2: I mean, you and I have absolutely nailed what we 116 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 2: see with an Atlanta GDP now, which is quartered to 117 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:24,080 Speaker 2: quarter to quarter to qorda. We underestimate a solid American economy. 118 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:28,120 Speaker 2: Do we still see solid relative to the gloom of recession? 119 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 1: We do? 120 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 3: And importantly, and again you know, this head has been 121 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 3: at the forefront of the inflation decline call for two 122 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 3: years now and lo and behold, after some bumps at midyear, 123 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 3: we're seeing that we're back on the path for the 124 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 3: likelihood of inflation. And think about it. What we saw 125 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 3: in terms of financial conditions the last couple of weeks. 126 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 3: Is inflation going to go higher or lower in response 127 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: to those kinds of conditions, I would suggest the answers lower. 128 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:01,440 Speaker 1: In the tornado of this week, Michael Gapin from Bank 129 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 1: of America came out with a note kind of categorizing 130 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,360 Speaker 1: the nine times in recent history we've had these intermeeting 131 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,080 Speaker 1: cuts and he you know, nine eleven, it's what happened 132 00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: with COVID et cetera, et cetera. And he comes to 133 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,520 Speaker 1: the conclusion we're nowhere near that level of crisis. 134 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: Yet. 135 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: I'd love for you just to comment on this in context. Again, 136 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: it's been a it's been a whirlwind week, big ups, 137 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 1: big downs. Put that into sort of a broader historical context. 138 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 1: That level of panic or sense of crisis that maybe 139 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 1: some investors had over the course of the week. 140 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 3: No, and and and look again, when you have volatility, 141 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,640 Speaker 3: and it wasn't just the equity markets, and it was 142 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: you know, Japan's equity market was down ten percent, FX 143 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 3: went crazy, interest rates when crazy. That kind of you know, 144 00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:49,320 Speaker 3: sort of cumulative within the context of thinking about all 145 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 3: the events in July that transpired politically, if nothing else, 146 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 3: such that we got to a point where earlier this 147 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: week everything we were thinking about virtually everything was called 148 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 3: into question. But you put it all together, and I 149 00:08:03,560 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 3: think you know the reason the market responded so positively 150 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 3: to the weekly Jobbles claims, you know, the most on 151 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 3: the ground statistic is because the recession is not in sight. 152 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 3: And frankly, what this does is what it typically does 153 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:24,080 Speaker 3: when conditions get this tight. We all know the Bloomberg 154 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 3: Financial Conditions Index is it resets that wall of worry, 155 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 3: and that's very important for bull markets to be feeding on. 156 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,160 Speaker 1: You're confident there'll be some calm next week when you're 157 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: overseas watching the Olympic Games. I mean, these feel like 158 00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:38,560 Speaker 1: things have kind of equilibrated well. 159 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,120 Speaker 3: With the vix in the twenties. Still, you can never 160 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:45,840 Speaker 3: be confident of the calm. And we've certainly got some 161 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 3: very important inflation numbers next week. But we do think 162 00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 3: that the violence of what we've seen this week indicates that, 163 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:00,320 Speaker 3: in all likelihood, the worst of it is over. 164 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 1: Tom, Are you of the mind that job's number was 165 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,640 Speaker 1: an aberration the one that we saw that. 166 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 2: To listen very carefully to people like Ana Wong who 167 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 2: are telling us. And Rick Reader at Black Rock had 168 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 2: a spectacular aggregate revisions chart showing how the joy of 169 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 2: the pandemic everybody's dampening down to a different job dynamic, 170 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 2: a different job economy. And you know, I don't know 171 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 2: the when of it. I think the win of it next. 172 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 2: I mean, Julian's called eight of the last six recessions. 173 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he's like the pro can can 174 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:41,680 Speaker 2: I give you one YouTube video besides Bloomberg surveillance? Of course, 175 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:47,000 Speaker 2: Les Frenchie, Let's Frenchie do one video on the five 176 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,319 Speaker 2: places to have beef Bergagnon in Paris, and they start 177 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,960 Speaker 2: with my favorite, it's just off Rue Duffine at the 178 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 2: river where they swim. You come down ru Duffine. It 179 00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: is just tucked into the left there. 180 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: So many people can relate to this. 181 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 2: And it's probably it's probably so twenty twenty five. But 182 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 2: you know, said tell them you'll eat in the kitchen, 183 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 2: but it's just your first time. 184 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: Do people mistake you for being French when you're there? 185 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:20,280 Speaker 2: No, they don't, although although I've had a lot of 186 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,320 Speaker 2: feedback from dephlopperg'speedo, Yes he's swimming in the river. That 187 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,400 Speaker 2: really that really got the week started. Or Julian Emmanuel 188 00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: on his way to Paris to have lunch with Katherine 189 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 2: Greifeld as well. She sent some shish boats somewhere. We're 190 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 2: going to start an important conversation here, David Gurrow with 191 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: a encyclopedic knowledge of the American politics, and uh, it 192 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 2: starts strong. David Gurra was Zach Cohen. 193 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: Zach, great to have you with. Zach Cohen covers Congress 194 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,679 Speaker 1: for Bloomberg Government and always great to speak with you. 195 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:04,280 Speaker 1: I mentioned a moment ago, big weekend for campaigning Kamala 196 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:07,240 Speaker 1: Harris has been on the campaign trailing awful lot Donald 197 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: Trump heading to Montana, Let's start there. He got some 198 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: criticism during that press conference yesterday for not being out 199 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 1: on the trail as much as has his opponent. What 200 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: was his response to that and why is he going 201 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: to this county in Montana? I think went for Joe 202 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: Biden the last time around. What does he see as 203 00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: the kind of possibility for him in the Republican Party 204 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,920 Speaker 1: in the great state of Montana. 205 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: Well, Montana certainly isn't competitive at a presidential election level, 206 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 4: but it's hosting a really key Senate race. He's actually 207 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,079 Speaker 4: going to be campaigning with the Republican nominee for Senate there, 208 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 4: Tim Sheehy, a former government contractor and firefighter, and that 209 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 4: race could determine control of the Senate. He's running against 210 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 4: Senator John Tester, chairman of the Veterans Affairs Committee, one 211 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 4: of the most vulnerable incumbents up for re election this cycle. Actually, 212 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:51,439 Speaker 4: in fact, the polling at this point so she e 213 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 4: leading Tester and a narrowly divided Senate where it's essentially 214 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:56,840 Speaker 4: already get fifty fifty with the loss of the West 215 00:11:56,920 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 4: Virginia Senate race. With Joe Manchin's retirement, Montana I could 216 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 4: tip the scales and give Republicans a now right majority 217 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 4: regardless of who wins the White House. And so you 218 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,559 Speaker 4: know Trump obviously, you know there's no love lost between 219 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 4: Trump and Tester. There's a long history there. But certainly 220 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:15,960 Speaker 4: Montana's an opportunity to not just you know, appeal to 221 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,959 Speaker 4: a base crowd in a place like Montana, but also 222 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 4: a place to try to build a governing majority, which 223 00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,080 Speaker 4: of course you need the Congress in order to do that. 224 00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: How does a guy like John Tester, Senator John Tester 225 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 1: view Kamala Harris's pick to be her running mate? How 226 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 1: does he see Tim Walls and what does that mean 227 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: for the calculus in his home state having Walls on 228 00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: the ticket. 229 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 4: And Tester is one of the people every time I've 230 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 4: talked to him about this, he says, I'm focusing on 231 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 4: my own race. He's focusing on his efforts to actually 232 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 4: rebuff the Biden Harris administration in a couple of places, 233 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 4: on things like firearm access Paraguay and beef imports of 234 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 4: all things that you know, sort of the hometown issues 235 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 4: that Montana voters care about. His campaign ads are all 236 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,760 Speaker 4: about public lands and accusing she he of being from 237 00:12:57,800 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 4: out of state and trying to enrich himself with government 238 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,160 Speaker 4: contract as I mentioned earlier. And so that's the path 239 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 4: to victory for Tester, somebody who has a long record 240 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 4: in the state of being a Montanan and trying to 241 00:13:10,360 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 4: avoid the top of the ticket. I'd be shocked if 242 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 4: he even shows up in Chicago. 243 00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: But parent exports you I was gonna say, you two guys, 244 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:19,439 Speaker 2: get going. I feel like I'm on a cable TV program. 245 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:24,480 Speaker 2: Paragray and Beef Exports. You two would bring in bart conversation, 246 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 2: get the Capitol grill and Washington Gerden Cone and bring 247 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: the conversation to a hall. It's not Zack Amy Walter 248 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 2: Cook political report. I believe it's this morning. Maybe last night. Arizona, 249 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,600 Speaker 2: Georgia and Nevada moved from lean Republican to toss up. 250 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 2: That's really where we are in the Sunday talk shows. 251 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: All of a sudden it's a toss up election. 252 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, certainly. I mean the Arizona, Nevada, Georgia always really competitive. 253 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 4: I think it's part of the reason why Mark Kelly 254 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: was on the short list to be Harris's running mate, 255 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 4: the senator from Arizona. That might be one way to 256 00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 4: try to boost Hern out there. Arizona in recent memory 257 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 4: basically had every Republican officeholder or every state wide office 258 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 4: holder was a Republican. Georgia obviously flipped two Senate seats, 259 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 4: not just four years ago when Biden managed to carry 260 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 4: the state, and the Nevada had the closest Senate race 261 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 4: of the entire map in twenty twenty two, and so 262 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 4: certainly no surprise there that these are the really critical states. 263 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 4: And so Nevada, I think especially it's got a Senate 264 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 4: race there, Jackie Rosen ends up for re election. It'll 265 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 4: be really critical for Democrats to try to boost turn 266 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 4: out Las Vegas and Clark County and try to keep 267 00:14:30,320 --> 00:14:33,240 Speaker 4: down their margins elsewhere. But that's gonna be a tough race. Actually. 268 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 4: Rosen is one of the few that Trump called out 269 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 4: in his Milwaukee speech as an incumbent that he'd like 270 00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 4: to beat. 271 00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 2: November pro tip, David, Seriously, how do you and Zact 272 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 2: Cohen and your brethren? How do you remember all the names? 273 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: I don't remember them as well as that does. But he, 274 00:14:47,160 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: I mean, he's living. How do you do it like 275 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 1: seeing them on that hill is? 276 00:14:51,440 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: I mean, all I got to worry about was, oh, 277 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 2: that's it? Save us again? Was that Cohen here? 278 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 1: Zach, I'm gonna guess that you know you like I 279 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: Before the US played Servia yesterday in basketball in Paris, 280 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,120 Speaker 1: maybe watch this press conference at mar A Lago and 281 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: something that came up with the prospect of these debates 282 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: happening over the next four to six weeks, Donald Trump 283 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,720 Speaker 1: saying that he'd agreed to three of them. What is 284 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 1: the likelihood of that happening just because I got to 285 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 1: clear the calendar if they are in fact going to happen, 286 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 1: and why are these so important to him? 287 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 2: Now? 288 00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 1: Why has he had this kind of change of tact 289 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: toward these debates. 290 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 4: It does sound like there's at least going to be 291 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 4: one debate on ABC, I believe on September tenth, and 292 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 4: so that'll be sort of the first opportunity that we're 293 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 4: going to see Trump and Harris side by side in 294 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 4: a debate, something I'm sure Harris has been looking forward 295 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 4: to since she ran for president in twenty twenty. And 296 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 4: there might be another debate beyond that with NBC later 297 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,080 Speaker 4: in September. The Harris's campaign has ruled out a third 298 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 4: debate that Trump has pitched to be on Fox News, 299 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 4: obviously much more of a conservative news channel, and so 300 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 4: we might see more pas September, but at least that 301 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 4: ABC NBC debates are the ones in play right now. 302 00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,400 Speaker 4: Trump had said that he didn't want to debate Harris 303 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:59,000 Speaker 4: as long as she was the presumptive nominee, which was 304 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 4: the sort of weird two weak stretch where she clearly 305 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,960 Speaker 4: had the delegates and the support of the party members 306 00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 4: that really decide these things when there aren't primaries to 307 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:11,520 Speaker 4: do so. But now that delegates have made her the 308 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 4: nominee actually in advance of Chicago in or to make 309 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 4: the ballot, she is the bona fide nominee, and it 310 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 4: creates an opportunity to have this discussion. 311 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,720 Speaker 2: Zach, I'm in charge of dumb questions here. Will there 312 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,480 Speaker 2: be a vice presidential debate? 313 00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:25,000 Speaker 4: There will be a vice presidential debate between Minnesota Governor 314 00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 4: Tim Wallas and Ohio Senator JD. 315 00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: Advance. 316 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 4: In fact, Walls has already made pretty clear he's looking 317 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 4: forward to that particular contest, and that'll be a really 318 00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 4: fascinating lineup between two military veterans with very different worldviews, 319 00:16:38,160 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 4: who both are trying to appeal to the heartland, to 320 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 4: the Midwest, which are really key battleground states. Maybe not 321 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 4: so much Minnesota, but places like Ohio, Wisconsin, and Michigan 322 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 4: that could decide not just the White House but Congress. 323 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 2: One more question, what's the one race I should read 324 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 2: in on this weekend in the Zach Cohen world. What's 325 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: the one race where I should try. 326 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 1: To be on the edge of make it as esoteric 327 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,160 Speaker 1: as possible so we can My. 328 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,360 Speaker 4: Colleague mate, she he actually just wrote a really nice 329 00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,719 Speaker 4: preview of Ilhan Omar's reelection race in Minnesota. Their primaries 330 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 4: are coming up on Tuesday. Omar obviously a member of 331 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:14,640 Speaker 4: the Squad, very progressive, very critical of Israel. This primary 332 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,880 Speaker 4: will be the next test of whether, after the fall 333 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 4: of Jamal Bowman in New York, Corey Bush and Missouri, 334 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,719 Speaker 4: whether supporters of Israel able to oust some of their 335 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 4: most critics in Congress. 336 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,120 Speaker 2: Zach Cohen, thank you so much, hugely beneficial, really really 337 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,679 Speaker 2: appreciate it. Cohen, folks, you can't do better than that. 338 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 2: On YouTube. You can tell she's wearing red.

At IU, 353 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,359 Speaker 5: Like all universities, you know, we across the US, you know, 354 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,199 Speaker 5: we've we've we've all experienced the opportunities and the challenges 355 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 5: of everybody expressing themselves and in ways that are that 356 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 5: are important to do to you know, respect, the opportunity 357 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 5: for free speech, and at I you, that's the value 358 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 5: we have, it's a value will continue to have. But 359 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 5: we also recognize that we've got to do that balanced 360 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 5: with making sure everybody is safe and that university operations 361 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 5: are not disrupted. So we did some really good collaborative 362 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:15,960 Speaker 5: work over the summer across our campuses with all constituents, 363 00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 5: and our Board of Trustees just passed a pretty thorough 364 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 5: policy for us just within the last few weeks that 365 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 5: frankly makes it clear to everybody what the rules are 366 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 5: moving forward. And so we think we're in good shape 367 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 5: and we're excited really about a wonderful upcoming fall semester. 368 00:19:33,480 --> 00:19:35,960 Speaker 1: President, wouldn't let me ask you about the thanklessness of 369 00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: being a university president. I note that there are a 370 00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 1: lot of openings at campuses across the country right now, 371 00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:42,600 Speaker 1: and so many of them, including my alma mater, Cornell, 372 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: have decided they're going to postpone that search for a 373 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: couple of years, maybe till the dust settles, maybe until 374 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,800 Speaker 1: people think that these jobs have more appeal. Could you 375 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 1: speak to that, just the way that this job has 376 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 1: changed and the pressure that you and others in your 377 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,640 Speaker 1: position are under at this point, it is a different environment, 378 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 1: a different atmosphere where you've got vociferous alumni, students speaking up. 379 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: You have a lot of constituencies that you have to 380 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:06,440 Speaker 1: appeal to, and I wonder if you could just speak 381 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: to the challenges of that and why despite all of that, 382 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 1: this is still a job that you so evidently love. 383 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:12,120 Speaker 2: Well. 384 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 5: You're right, higher education has changed a lot in the 385 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 5: last couple of decades. You know. I've been in higher 386 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,359 Speaker 5: it since the nineties when I started my career as 387 00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 5: a good old college professor, and and just love that 388 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,720 Speaker 5: time as well. But the world has changed, right, and 389 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,119 Speaker 5: so what we see and we face in terms of 390 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 5: strong opinions and challenging way things are communicated and way 391 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 5: you know, misinformation moves around social media, et cetera. I 392 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,520 Speaker 5: don't think we're that different than any other place, you know, 393 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 5: frankly around the world as well. And it's always about 394 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 5: the north star, right. If you love the opportunity to 395 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 5: shape and to set a vision for preparing students for 396 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,360 Speaker 5: just incredibly wonderful lives professionally and personally, then you want 397 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 5: to be in higher education. If you love the opportunity 398 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 5: to you know, shape the direction of research and discovery 399 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 5: that changes lives. You want to be in higher education. 400 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 5: And from the perspective of I, you if you recognized, 401 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 5: you know, as a state's flagship institution, and I really 402 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,040 Speaker 5: believe in public higher d personally as well, and the 403 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 5: role of flagship place and making your state in our case, 404 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 5: Indiana is a better place to live. You want to 405 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 5: be in public higher education. So it's about keeping your 406 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 5: eye on the prize and recognizing that in the end 407 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 5: common outs that we really all want. 408 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 2: You leading your note with this disease that's out there 409 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 2: that kids are just floating through. That's a phrase my 410 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 2: mother used years ago. Now, you had a guy named 411 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 2: Bullard who took a PhD at Indiana University, and he's 412 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,160 Speaker 2: at another school a bit north. I think, I don't 413 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 2: can't remember what school James Bullard's at right now. But 414 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 2: Pamela the laureate Eleanor Austrom, who I was honored to 415 00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 2: speak to the day she won the Nobel Prize, is 416 00:21:56,280 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: about the rigor of Indiana economics. Tell us how you're 417 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:04,480 Speaker 2: bringing rigor to economics and continue how you're crow barring 418 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,640 Speaker 2: undergraduates into Hey, it's not a party school. 419 00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 5: You're here to study, so riginal, I have to make 420 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 5: sure that you are clear because most people aren't. On 421 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 5: the breadth of Indiana University. So we are actually Indiana 422 00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 5: University in Bloomington. You know, forty seven thousand students were 423 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 5: now IU Indianapolis Research University in Indie and the twenty 424 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 5: five thousand students five regional campuses, two subregional campuses. The 425 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,879 Speaker 5: biggest medical school in the country is at IU. 426 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: Purdue. I have to interrupt. Is Purdue a regional campus 427 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 2: of Indiana University? 428 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 5: Well, I think it probably wishes it. 429 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,919 Speaker 2: Continue on the rigor that you're demanding. 430 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 5: And so you know, we have different campuses with different 431 00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 5: missions and different types of students as well. And as 432 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 5: our students come in, we're really up the game for 433 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,959 Speaker 5: them in terms of expectations when they study. But also 434 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 5: we own a lot of that ourselves, and we recognize 435 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 5: that you really have to be forward thinking and addressing 436 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 5: how students need to learn moving forward. It can't just 437 00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:15,560 Speaker 5: be the traditional old fashioned way in the classroom. So 438 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:20,679 Speaker 5: for example, we have agreements with almost nine thousand partners 439 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 5: to make sure that our students are engaged and have 440 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 5: opportunities not only inside the classroom but outside the classroom, 441 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 5: so their career ready when they move forward. We just 442 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,280 Speaker 5: announced a new co op program. You're probably familiar with 443 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 5: the Kelly School of Business, truly a gem, one of 444 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 5: the best in the country. If you come to Kelley 445 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,400 Speaker 5: and in Indianapolis. Now you can study in a co 446 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:42,959 Speaker 5: op which is opportunity to work with business throughout our 447 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:46,040 Speaker 5: state and beyond, which is just amazing. So we are 448 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 5: expecting them to come in ready, but we want to 449 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 5: own making sure they have an amazing experience as well. 450 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 2: Pamela Witten, Indiana University, thank you so much for joining Blimber. 451 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 2: Your dad.

They've spent about three 573 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 6: and a half billion dollars in past five years to 574 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 6: make it. Okay, it did a lot there.

What do you like to watch? 584 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 2: My movie diet is basically a gunpoint. We're watching a movie, 585 00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 2: or you know, we're watching a movie. It's really actually 586 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:28,160 Speaker 2: right now, really sad. You know, compared to. 587 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 6: Most people, you're not going to see. 588 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 2: No I made for you.

I'll 592 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 2: give credit to the Wall Street Journal. Paul and I 593 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 2: talked about it. It's irrefutable. People are going to the 594 00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 2: movies less. I mean, it's watch it at home, we're all. 595 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: I did watch a gunpoint. I had to watch Red 596 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,800 Speaker 2: to Bruce Willis, and it was you know, it's what 597 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 2: it is. Star turn Hell mirrors in it. But it 598 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 2: was beautifully executed. I was shocked at like the camera angles, 599 00:31:06,280 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 2: the editing frame to frame. They took a lot of 600 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 2: care in it and it made like one hundred ga 601 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:17,200 Speaker 2: jillion dollars. But you know that was great.
