I'm not gonna use that 177 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 3: in that way. 178 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 2: Well you don't have to, but it is multi multi use, 179 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: very fersatile. 180 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 3: And then sitting on a plane and staring straight ahead 181 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 3: that what he said. 182 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:23,720 Speaker 2: I guess it's evolved into just means dealing with something 183 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 2: without any aid. 184 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:30,680 Speaker 3: First flight, I got on, had Life Story person in 185 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 3: front of me, loud Life Story person. Oh, I didn't 186 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 3: have any headphones or anything like that. I'm just gonna read. 187 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 2: But just I just I'm always amazed. 188 00:09:40,040 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 3: By that, the lack of self awareness for how loud 189 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 3: you are or how much you're talking. 190 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 2: Do you notice nobody else is talking. You've been talking for. 191 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 3: An hour and nobody else has been talking. It doesn't 192 00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 3: seem odd to you in any way? 193 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 2: Nope, it doesn't. How those people? 194 00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 3: How do you going through your whole life without without thinking, huh, 195 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 3: there's a bunch of human beings here. We could either 196 00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 3: all not talk, or we could all talk equally, or 197 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 3: I could talk the entire time while they listen. One 198 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:14,479 Speaker 3: of them seems odd. Yeah, it's impossible for me to imagine. 199 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 3: And I think one of the reasons I'm reasonably good 200 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,240 Speaker 3: at this is I'm very self conscious about what I say, so. 201 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 4: I tend to form it pretty carefully. I mean, somebody 202 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 4: can say, Joe, what do you think? And I think 203 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 4: is it appropriate for me to talk now? So I 204 00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,200 Speaker 4: can't imagine somebody who's in that completely polar opposite headspace. 205 00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:30,680 Speaker 2: I just can't. 206 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:34,160 Speaker 3: And then along with the volume, just like so everybody 207 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: in several roles can hear you night. 208 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 209 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 3: And then when I got out of high school, that's 210 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 3: when the fun really started. 211 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 2: So I joined the military. I don't recall asking, sir, 212 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,599 Speaker 2: what the hell do you know anybody like that? And 213 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 2: you have any explanation. 214 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,840 Speaker 3: I've been wondering about this my whole Life's. 215 00:10:50,720 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: Jack Armstrong and Joe Armstrong and Getty show them I'm 216 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: getting shot apple. 217 00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 2: Pool and nothing. 218 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 3: If you're a sports fan, here's the latest. If you're 219 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: a baseball fan, particularly latest sensation. Are you into tugboat yet? 220 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 3: I've read about tugboat two hundred and seventy pound baseball player, 221 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 3: big fat guy, really really good, and apparently his YouTube 222 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:20,560 Speaker 3: videos are very popular. So if you're a baseball fan 223 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:24,000 Speaker 3: and you like oddities, it's not like a bearded woman 224 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 3: or something, but it is a bigger guy usually. 225 00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:28,439 Speaker 2: See. 226 00:11:28,800 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 4: Wow, that that sounded transphobic to me. So back to 227 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 4: this tugboat guy. Though he's you know, he's at a 228 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 4: low level of a minor league ball at this point, lowish, 229 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,880 Speaker 4: but he strikes out more than half the batters he faces. 230 00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:44,640 Speaker 4: It's his numbers are astonishing. I'm intrigued. I want to 231 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:45,840 Speaker 4: watch one of his games. 232 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,959 Speaker 3: By the way, Ryan Gosling and mikey Day of Saturday 233 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 3: Night Live are reprising their Beavis and butt Head act. 234 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 3: It has become very popular. If you saw that sketch 235 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 3: on Saturday Night Live. 236 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 2: A couple of weeks ago. 237 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 3: So they're making the rounds doing that, including at the 238 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 3: premiere of his latest film. I wouldn't be surprised if 239 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 3: there isn't somebody making a movie that will feature those 240 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 3: two as Beevis and but Hit. 241 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 2: It was pretty damned funny. But I wanted to get 242 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 2: to this. 243 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 3: The New York Times had this article over the weekend 244 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 3: that I read because I'm always wondering about this, and 245 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 3: this is a classic the food expiration dates. You should 246 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 3: actually follow. This comes up all the time. The first 247 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 3: thing you should know, said the New York Times. The dates, 248 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 3: as we know them have nothing to do with safety. 249 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 2: I have thank you. 250 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 3: I have been involved with people in my life at 251 00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: various points who followed these religiously, as if they were 252 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 3: God's own word. And if you were anywhere near the date, 253 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 3: let alone past it, obviously that is something you shouldn't eat. 254 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 2: It's not even based on safety. 255 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 3: According to the US Department of Agriculture, it's completely voluntary 256 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:55,079 Speaker 3: for all products except for baby food. It's completely voluntary, 257 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 3: and so there are no rules around it whatsoever. And 258 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,800 Speaker 3: it's got nothing to do with safety. And it's solely 259 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,960 Speaker 3: based on the manufacturer's best guess as to when the 260 00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 3: product will not be at peak quality, whatever that means. 261 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 3: And of course there is a financial incentive to imply 262 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 3: that this isn't safe to eat it after a certain date, 263 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:17,800 Speaker 3: so you'll buy another one. 264 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, throw it out and go to the store and 265 00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 2: buy another one. Yeah, exactly. 266 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 3: Anyway, So it goes through in the New York Times 267 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,680 Speaker 3: some of the things that never go bad. White flour 268 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 3: never goes bad. 269 00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: Did you know? 270 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 3: It never goes bad? Keep that around forever? Talks about bread. 271 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 3: I struggle with this. So I've been trying to eat 272 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 3: more healthier bread. You know, I've been a wonderbread guy 273 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 3: my whole life. There's not a lot of nutrition in wonderbread. 274 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,680 Speaker 3: It's a child's bread, but it does stay soft and 275 00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,560 Speaker 3: edible for a very long time. And as it talks here, 276 00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,720 Speaker 3: a lot of those breads like I get wonderbread. You've 277 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 3: got like a full week probably on that loaf where 278 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 3: you get fresh bread from your bakery, which is so good, 279 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,000 Speaker 3: you know, an hour after it was baked to stale 280 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 3: the next day. So well is the wonders of chemistry. 281 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 3: So when you buy the fresh bread, which is delicious, 282 00:14:02,040 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 3: you sit and eat it all one one afternoon or all. 283 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,080 Speaker 2: In one sitting. That's right. I just eat it and 284 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: eat it and eat it. Yeah, spices last forever. 285 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 3: I don't I don't remember ever looking at the expiration 286 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 3: date on my salt or pepper, and. 287 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 4: Do not discover the joys of the plastic bag. It 288 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 4: keeps spread fresh for days days, and tastes. 289 00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 2: I always feel like. 290 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 3: It gets too moist you put in a plastic bag, 291 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 3: it gets like gooey. 292 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,840 Speaker 2: I don't like that, like like real bread. Yeah no, no, 293 00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 2: why does that happen to me? I don't know. I 294 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 2: can't imagine. 295 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,360 Speaker 4: I mean, I tend to eat like rye and pumpernickel 296 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 4: and grown man's breads. Seven grain is my favorite. Nos, 297 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 4: it got six grain maybe in. 298 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: A pinch seven that's what I require. 299 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,720 Speaker 3: I actually hate both of those. I would I would 300 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 3: not eat a sandwich. I would take the bread off 301 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 3: if it had rye bread on it or no. Grow 302 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:54,280 Speaker 3: What an odd character you are anyway? Yeah, they last 303 00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 3: for a week, week and half at least. Yeah, they last. 304 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 2: Util them. 305 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 3: Don't eat canned goods. Hard goods last for years. 306 00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 4: If I've met old tea leaking, it's fine, go ahead 307 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 4: and eat them. 308 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 3: Rusty smells weird. Don't worry about it. Now, that's not 309 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 3: what they said. As long as the can or jar 310 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 3: is not touched in any way or it doesn't look 311 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 3: damage to last forever. Mustards last forever. My yellow French 312 00:15:23,360 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 3: is mustard that I get to go with my wonderbread 313 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: lasts forever. 314 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 4: Would you know I'm going to write a song about 315 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:32,080 Speaker 4: mustard today after the show Mustards Last Forever. 316 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: I'm a man who enjoys mustard. I have no less 317 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 2: than ten different mustards in my refrigerator. I eat them 318 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 2: gleefully on rye bread. It's your pinky in the air. 319 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, disgusting, because made you have any gray popon? 320 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,880 Speaker 3: I do, really, I've never even, of course, tasted gray popon. 321 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,720 Speaker 3: I don't even actually know what it is. I've only 322 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 3: heard about it in advertisements. And then finally, milk I 323 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:58,240 Speaker 3: wanted to get to that, just because that's when we 324 00:15:58,280 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: worry about lot, especially if you have kids. We've all 325 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 3: accidentally poured some clumpy, spoiled milk into our cereal holes. 326 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 3: I have done. It is one of the worst smells 327 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 3: on earth. That's like nature's own protective mechanism, right, It's 328 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,680 Speaker 3: letting our brains know this is not good. Don't eat it. 329 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 3: It can seem like your milk is perfectly fine until 330 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 3: it's suddenly not. 331 00:16:15,640 --> 00:16:17,840 Speaker 2: How does it go bad overnight? The truth is it doesn't. 332 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 3: From the moment you open a carton of milk, bacteria 333 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 3: starts to digest lactose and produce acidic byproducts. Anyway, if 334 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,520 Speaker 3: you want your milk to last longer, look for ultra 335 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 3: high temperature or UHT labeled on the milk. I've never 336 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,360 Speaker 3: looked for that before, but some milks have it and 337 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:37,560 Speaker 3: some don't.

The experts told us sleepy Joe would be 506 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 4: the most consequential president since FDR. 507 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 2: When he dropped out in July. 508 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 4: Those same experts compared Biden to George Washington, praising his 509 00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 4: selfless act as political courage. 510 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: He will not be remembered that way now. 511 00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 4: In reality, Biden's decision to run for reelection rights Andrew 512 00:25:33,480 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 4: Styles will be remembered as one of the most reckless 513 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 4: acts of political hubris and American history. His selection of 514 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 4: Kamala Harris as a running mate in twenty twenty, his 515 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,360 Speaker 4: decision to immediately endorse her also regarded as monumental blunders. 516 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,160 Speaker 4: This is the legacy Biden deserves. 517 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 3: They met Trump and Biden met for two hours yesterday. 518 00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 2: I find that pretty interesting alone. What were they talking about? 519 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 3: Trump says they talked a lot about Ukraine and talked 520 00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,439 Speaker 3: a lot about Israel. But two hours, that's a pretty 521 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 3: serious conversation. 522 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, absolutely, I have no doubt. I'm glad 523 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 2: to hear it. Honestly. 524 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,920 Speaker 4: Another loser, of course, Tim Walltz oh right, the camo 525 00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 4: hat guy who around pranced around on stage and lied 526 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 4: constantly about China and other weird things. He was supposed 527 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 4: to help the Hair's campaign appeal to men. He pretended 528 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,719 Speaker 4: to go pheasant hunting, cackled with the ladies of the U, 529 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:25,360 Speaker 4: and played video games with AOC. 530 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 2: He said Republicans were weird. Trump won mail voters by thirteen. 531 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 3: Points, right, And obviously, if you're going to pick somebody 532 00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 3: out of the whole crowd, that was weird. He was 533 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 3: almost certainly the weirdest. 534 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 2: And I'm a knucklehead at times. 535 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 4: Another losers, other losers, the Obamas, and you know, he 536 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 4: talked about various things, but they tried to shame black 537 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:52,959 Speaker 4: men into voting for Kamala scolding the brothers for hating women. 538 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 2: Oh, go away, please go away. 539 00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:01,639 Speaker 4: Other losers Alex Sorosho, the son of billionaire George Soros, 540 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 4: who funneled hundreds of million dollars of dollars into the 541 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:07,719 Speaker 4: Democrats in twenty twenty four, hanging out with him at 542 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 4: elite conferences, inviting them to his swanky Manhattan pad, et cetera. 543 00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 4: And some other people you've never heard of. The mainstream 544 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 4: media journalists are the worst. They scolded the American people 545 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,679 Speaker 4: for feeling stressed about the economy and thinking, but Biden 546 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:24,360 Speaker 4: was too old to run for reelection. They still don't 547 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 4: understand why no one trusts them or takes them seriously. 548 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,439 Speaker 4: They try to put their thumbs on the scale for Harris, 549 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,720 Speaker 4: but it made no difference due to their rapidly diminishing 550 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 4: credibility and relevance. They will learn nothing and carry on 551 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 4: into the void. 552 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 3: Speaking of spending money, did you see that Kamala Harris's 553 00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 3: campaign gave Al Sharpton a half a million dollars five 554 00:27:43,560 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 3: hundred thousand dollars they gave to Kamala before he did 555 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 3: the glowing interview with her. Wow, what kind of shakedown 556 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 3: is that? And I can't believe that they play that 557 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:58,440 Speaker 3: game with Al freaking Sharpton. You gave him a half 558 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 3: a million dollars so he do a softball interview with you. 559 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, more losers, the Lincoln Project go away, shameless griff. 560 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:11,760 Speaker 4: There's criminals, terrorists in Iran. Not even Ben Rhodes can 561 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 4: save you. Now, losers. 562 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,160 Speaker 3: That Al Sharpton thing pisses me off because that interview 563 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,240 Speaker 3: got a fair amount of play in mainstream media because 564 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 3: she was addressing, you know, all the black community and all. 565 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 2: That sort of stuff. 566 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 1: He did. 567 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 3: Wouldn't do the interview unless he got a half a 568 00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 3: million dollars. 569 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:30,919 Speaker 4: Oh my god, can we have some sort of giant 570 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 4: statement from you know, the black folks in America, fabulous 571 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:39,960 Speaker 4: loyal Americans who disavow the very concept of Al Sharpton 572 00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 4: being a spokesperson for anybody. 573 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: The Armstrong and Getty show. 574 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 2: This is interesting and not terribly shocking. Well, I guess 575 00:28:56,800 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 2: when you get down. 576 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 4: To the the granular detail, it is fairly shocking. But 577 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 4: Americans are more reliant than ever on government aid. An 578 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 4: aging population, economic distress raised dependence on federal and state support, 579 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 4: and it matters a hell of a lot for our elections. 580 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 4: As you might guess Wall Street Journal looking into a 581 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 4: major study. This is little graphics heavy, but I can 582 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 4: interpret it for you. They're talking about the share of 583 00:29:25,600 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 4: personal income from government assistance. How in how many counties 584 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 4: is it twenty five percent or more? In nineteen seventy, 585 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 4: government safety net money accounted for significant income. That's more 586 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 4: than twenty five percent. Twenty five percent or more in 587 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 4: fewer than one percent of America's counties. 588 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,600 Speaker 2: So say that again, in what year? 589 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 4: In nineteen seventy it was less than one percent? Okay, 590 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 4: in two thousand it went from less than one percent 591 00:29:57,200 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 4: to roughly ten percent. That's the year twenty ten percent, 592 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:06,480 Speaker 4: which a tenfold increase is not minor. In the year 593 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two, fifty three percent, more than half of 594 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 4: US counties drew at least a quarter of their income 595 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 4: from government aid. 596 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,880 Speaker 3: So this is we were talking about this last week, 597 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 3: and now that it's the average person in the bottom quintile. 598 00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 3: I know this is a lot of complicated talking, but 599 00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 3: the bottom twenty percent of income earners in America get 600 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 3: on average sixty eight thousand dollars per household of transfer payments, 601 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 3: and that's left out of every argument about we have the. 602 00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 2: Highest inequality of any nation in the world. 603 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 3: They never include this stuff and what you just talked 604 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 3: about there, that's never included in these conversations from Bernie 605 00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 3: Sanders or probably Tim Walls tonight in the debate. People 606 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 3: live in paycheck to paycheck. Well, more people are getting 607 00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 3: the handouts from the government than ever before. 608 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:00,760 Speaker 2: A lot. 609 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 4: And as we've discussed with Craig the healthcare Guru, socialism 610 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 4: is not a light switch. It's a it's a fungus 611 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 4: oh that spreads across a country, and it's programmed benefits 612 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 4: and yeah, yeah, sure, there's just no stopping it. 613 00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:18,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 614 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 4: So the big reasons for this dramatic growth are interesting. 615 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 4: Some of them I think most conservatives would jacked out 616 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 4: of hand. But it gets a little complicated when you 617 00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 4: dig into it. There are much larger share of Americans 618 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,920 Speaker 4: who are seniors. Period, We're living longer, and we've aged 619 00:31:33,960 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 4: as a population, we're not having kids anymore. And healthcare raw, sorry, 620 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 4: healthcare costs have risen fairly dramatically as they've gotten more fantastic. 621 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 4: The technology we have at our disposal to keep ourselves 622 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 4: healthy and alive is truly awe inspiring. 623 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:53,640 Speaker 2: But it costs. 624 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, And as my doctor said last week, what exactly 625 00:31:56,440 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 3: is the point? Sometimes he wonders, is would you get 626 00:32:00,720 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 3: You know, our brains don't work, our bodies don't work, 627 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:06,920 Speaker 3: but we hang around longer at a great expense. 628 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 4: Right, Well, it could be the money is the point 629 00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 4: in at least some situations. Although it's I understand it's 630 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 4: an odd conundrum that a person could sit around rubbing 631 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 4: their chin thinking about for a long time. You're not 632 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 4: going to turn down medical advances because it's every advance 633 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 4: is an incremental step. It can lead toward other advances 634 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 4: or cures or what have you. But at the same 635 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 4: time you and your doctor are quite right, Hey, good news, 636 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:41,680 Speaker 4: we can keep alzheimer suffering Granny alive for one more year. 637 00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:44,880 Speaker 4: We can stave off for cancer with this new gene therapy. 638 00:32:44,920 --> 00:32:49,400 Speaker 4: Blah blah blah. What are we doing here anyway? To 639 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 4: get back to the major thread of the thing, AROUNI 640 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 4: here At the same time, many communities, so it's the 641 00:32:57,080 --> 00:33:00,520 Speaker 4: aging and the development of medical technology number one. At 642 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 4: the same time, any communities have suffered from economic client 643 00:33:03,200 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 4: because of the challenges including the loss of manufacturing, leaving 644 00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 4: government money is the larger share of people's income in 645 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 4: such places. You know, I could bore you to death. 646 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 4: I won't because I do this for a living and 647 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 4: kind of enjoy getting the paycheck. But one of the 648 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 4: big debates in conservative circles these days is the question 649 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 4: of the reagan Esque free trade global economy conservatives versus 650 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 4: what's being called the new conservatism or whatever you want. 651 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:38,719 Speaker 2: To call it. 652 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 3: And everybody's always government conservatism. Some people call it, yeah, 653 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 3: industrial planning, you know. 654 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 4: Sometimes people even call it central planning what have you, 655 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:52,720 Speaker 4: and are bellowing at each other about it, as if 656 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 4: the solutions and the questions and answers are very simple. 657 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 4: They're not at all. They're trillions of dollars at sake. 658 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 4: So I understand why the people making lots and lots 659 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 4: of money want to keep that money flowing. They don't 660 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 4: care how much unemployment there is in rural Pennsylvania, for instance. 661 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:12,040 Speaker 4: At the same time, oh oh, and the other point 662 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 4: I was going to make on the side of the new. 663 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 2: Conservatives. 664 00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 4: Back in Reagan's day, we didn't have the situation where 665 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,160 Speaker 4: our chief global adversary is our one of our chief 666 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 4: trading partners, technology partners, and practically indispensable to the world economy. 667 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,279 Speaker 4: So if you are pitching free global trade of a 668 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 4: reaganesque sort, your pitching continued interaction slash dependence with China, 669 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:44,239 Speaker 4: which is just a bad idea. Times have changed, the 670 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,960 Speaker 4: arguments have to change too, So I have sympathy with 671 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 4: both sides, but it is not simple. So for its 672 00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 4: analysis of government spending, EIG, which is the folks doing 673 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,960 Speaker 4: the analysis, used a government definition of income that includes 674 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 4: spending on programs Americans pay into, such as Medicare and 675 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 4: Social Security. Another major government health program, Medicaid, is counted. 676 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 4: The analysis also includes unemployment insurance, food stamps, the Earned 677 00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 4: Income Tax credit, veterans benefits, PELL grants, COVID era payments, 678 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 4: and other income supports. States helped pay for some of 679 00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 4: these programs, like Medicaid, but the federal government covers roughly 680 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,280 Speaker 4: seven seventy percent of the cost, and it doesn't include 681 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,319 Speaker 4: other ways government spending floods into corners of America, such 682 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 4: as farm subsidies or military bases. So this spending accounts 683 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 4: for big and growing share of not only the income 684 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 4: of the nation, but also our national debt. We are 685 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:45,240 Speaker 4: addicted to government spending slash social programs as a country. 686 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 3: There's no weaning off that either. I don't believe you 687 00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:51,000 Speaker 3: know backwards. I don't think it's possible, but you do have. 688 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,080 Speaker 4: To be honest about the dollars and cents coming and going, 689 00:35:53,120 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 4: and we're headed for a cliff. 690 00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 3: So we went from one percent nineteen seventy to over 691 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 3: half now correct. 692 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 2: Believable. 693 00:36:01,080 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 3: Not very many people could tell you that Armstrong and 694 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 3: Getty
