00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the

2
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,080
Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center.

3
00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: Jack Armstrong and Joe Kaddy Armstrong and Jetty.

4
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:19,959
Speaker 1: And he.

5
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 2: Arms Wrong get it live the from the studio.

6
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,960
Speaker 3: Ce see signor a dimly let room deep within the

7
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,919
Speaker 3: bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound of Hey,

8
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 3: y'all Today Tuesday, we're under the Tutelgitar general manager.

9
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 2: The second shot.

10
00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:51,200
Speaker 1: The Venezuelan drug vote controversy.

11
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 2: So is your take that they're trying to hang out

12
00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:57,320
Speaker 2: to dry that other dude? There are a couple of

13
00:00:57,320 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: different possibilities. The facts are not known at this point.

14
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: And by the way, we received a number of really

15
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:11,880
Speaker 2: interesting emails on the topic of many contrasting with each other. Yeah. Yeah,

16
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 2: the facts are in doubt at this point. So expressing

17
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 2: a strong opinion I think is foolish. Of course, we

18
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 2: live in foolish times. We certainly do well.

19
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 1: It seems to me that somebody could take more of

20
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 1: a role of stepping forward and clearing this thing up

21
00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: in the Defense Department, couldn't they?

22
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 2: Yeah? Are the White House? Yeah? Absolutely? I will tell

23
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: you this as a bullsser, do not bless me, as

24
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 2: the old saying goes. The denials by the White House

25
00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 2: have been very loyally. They have not been as direct

26
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: as they would be if they could be direct, saying no,

27
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:56,880
Speaker 2: that didn't happen. They've said the mission, which was approved

28
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: by the Legal Department, is righteous to keep America free

29
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: from drugs. But that's not what's being asked right soon

30
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 2: else we'll see. On the other hand, the usual suspects

31
00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,359
Speaker 2: are lining up to make hay in the usual ways,

32
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,440
Speaker 2: turning this into an entirely partisan matter of make it

33
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 2: scoring points and so you know, for instance, and I don't.

34
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 2: I don't care about this a lot, but at least

35
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:24,000
Speaker 2: some of our listeners are like, guys, why are you

36
00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: siding with the Democrats who are always trying to bring

37
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 2: Trump down? And the answers were not like usual, We're

38
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 2: just trying to figure out what's actually happening. I don't think.

39
00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 1: About that at all when I think about a story,

40
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 1: whether it's helps Trump hurts Trump. I just want to

41
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: know what happened, right, Yep, your hair. It's a nod method,

42
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,240
Speaker 1: but we're gonna stick with it. Here's the most interesting

43
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: thing I've heard today. First of all, I have a cold.

44
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 1: Every time I fly, I catch a cold. I remember

45
00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 1: during COVID they told us flying is like the safest

46
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 1: thing you can do in terms of aggressively filtered jack,

47
00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: How come every time I fly catch a cold? Anyway,

48
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:04,280
Speaker 1: I think that airports are teeming with filter. It might

49
00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,400
Speaker 1: be the airport, not the plane, of course. Then that

50
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 1: negates what they said though, flying is not a problem

51
00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: because the airplane well, okay, maybe the airplanes do recycle

52
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 1: the air and filtered out. But the fact that we're

53
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 1: all jammed together in that little walkway getting on and

54
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: off or or wherever else in the airport, if we

55
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,959
Speaker 1: get sick, filthy filthy seats there in the terminally, it

56
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 1: doesn't really make fly private like me. Why don't you,

57
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:30,480
Speaker 1: in a related story, let them eat gay care. It

58
00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,639
Speaker 1: doesn't really make any difference whether when I fly I

59
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,840
Speaker 1: get sick on the plane or waiting in the line

60
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 1: to get on the plane, does it?

61
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 2: No, not, really, It's a distinction without a difference exactly.

62
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: Anyway, here's the most interesting thing I've heard today, and

63
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: we're gonna hear a clip from a little bit later.

64
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:50,560
Speaker 1: Trump administration has been cracking down on the trucking industry

65
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: started in California where they're giving out all kinds of

66
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,880
Speaker 1: licenses to illegals, and we've had some horrifying crashes across

67
00:03:56,920 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: the country. Turns out about half half of the trucking

68
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: schools in the entire country, coast to coast, weren't doing

69
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 1: their job or even close to it. Being called CDL mills,

70
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 1: they're just there to stamp licenses and get people through

71
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 1: the door. Probably at the best of the trucking companies,

72
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,920
Speaker 1: I don't know who butter and.

73
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: If you can fog whatever their word is for mirror,

74
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: they will give you a license. Yeah.

75
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, And at least half of them are going to

76
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 1: be people are going to have their licenses taken back

77
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:34,800
Speaker 1: away because it wasn't a real school they went to,

78
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: or they're going to have to be closed down, or

79
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 1: they're gonna have to really get their act together. But

80
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: how does something like that happen? And man, does that

81
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,360
Speaker 1: lean toward us Libertarians who want to take government out

82
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 1: of these things? Have a private company of some sort

83
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: do this?

84
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 2: Right? Could a private company be bribed or not? Good? Sure?

85
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: But is it government company more likely to be bad? Yes? Well,

86
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 2: and what's the recourse when when a private company goes

87
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:04,600
Speaker 2: bad or or does well, well, let's stick with the specifics.

88
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: Does what the government sanctioned schools which are quasi private

89
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 2: have done. You bring them to their knees, you find

90
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 2: them to death, you put them out of business. If

91
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 2: it's a government agency, what do you do you find

92
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 2: the taxpayers place. It's terrible. Although part of this is

93
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 2: it's just I think it's it's crony capitalism, because I

94
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 2: think a lot of these truck driving schools are private.

95
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 2: But the governments here and there said, look, look we

96
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 2: need lots and lots of drivers. Nobody's gonna pay attention.

97
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,799
Speaker 2: These are jobs Americans won't do because they're busy smoking

98
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 2: pot on their parents' basement, sofar or they can't get

99
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,719
Speaker 2: a job in their whatever studies program they got a

100
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: degree in, right, right, no kidding, You know, we should

101
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 2: probably every single day, I don't know, maybe kickoff hour

102
00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,360
Speaker 2: two of the show of with just reminding you the

103
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: labor participation rate among healthy working age males is thet

104
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:02,960
Speaker 2: it's ever been, and then just go on with whatever

105
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: else we're going to talk about, right, because that shades

106
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:10,359
Speaker 2: so many issues we talked about. Yeah, I was about to,

107
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 2: and it might fit in with this.

108
00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 1: So, first of all, on that trucking school thing, if

109
00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: it turns out most of them are private, obviously, that

110
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:22,800
Speaker 1: damages my libertarian argument. So where is the breakdown there? Well,

111
00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 1: this state still has to give them the test, though,

112
00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 1: and there had to be a lot of people knowing

113
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,000
Speaker 1: that they were not doing their job. I mean, sure,

114
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:35,040
Speaker 1: what I mean thousands of people across the country have

115
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 1: to be aware that these schools are just fake basically.

116
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,599
Speaker 2: Well, and then they get guys who can't pass the

117
00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 2: tests who are inexplicably given a license by the government.

118
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: So it's the sort of public private partnerships that made

119
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 2: America what it is today. Jack. Here's the other interesting

120
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,600
Speaker 2: thing I heard today. There is a poll.

121
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 1: Out, one of many negative economic polls, where people are

122
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 1: worried about their healthcare, in particular that they can't afford it,

123
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 1: and the blah blah blah. How do all those numbers

124
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,280
Speaker 1: that we had before we went on vacation and including today,

125
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 1: where people are laid on their car payments more than

126
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 1: they've been in decades, their credit card debt is maxed out,

127
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,560
Speaker 1: they're more worried about being able to afford prescriptions, blah

128
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,600
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah, they feel horrible about their personal

129
00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: financial situation. And then if those numbers out of Black

130
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,880
Speaker 1: Friday are true, but we spent nine percent more.

131
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: On shopping, what the heck is going on there? Well,

132
00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: there are a number of different things that could be

133
00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 2: going on. Maybe people still perceive the Black Friday is

134
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 2: the day for super bargains, and so they've been keeping

135
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,440
Speaker 2: their powder dry until that day they dumped all their

136
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,160
Speaker 2: money into it, and now you're going to see a

137
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 2: drop off before and after. I don't know. That's could be.

138
00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:46,280
Speaker 2: It could be.

139
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 1: We had a stat not that long ago that the

140
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,360
Speaker 1: top we'll forget what it was, twenty percent of income

141
00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: earners were doing like half of the consumer spending. So

142
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,400
Speaker 1: maybe the people with and he just spent like insane

143
00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: people to make up for other people cutting back. But

144
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: none of that fits together, the idea that people are

145
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: missing car payments, house payments, can't afford the prescriptions, and

146
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: are spending more for Christmas, and there's something funky, or

147
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: we're just completely out of control.

148
00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 2: I mean, we might just be living like.

149
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: The government were broke and we're going to come up

150
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: with a new program. It'd be something if the government,

151
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: pad the federal government passed some sort of.

152
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 2: Bail out. This would be the next step of pandering

153
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 2: to the citizens. We will bail you out of your

154
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 2: personal debt, and then that drove the federal government into

155
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:46,480
Speaker 2: they had to default.

156
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 1: That would be kind of a perfect It would be

192
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 4: idea of capturing engagement through anger. Therefore, I say something

193
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 4: that is provocative with the mere idea that it's going

194
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:34,400
Speaker 4: to generate.

195
00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:38,920

Speaker 1: The reporting on that is all over the place, and

243
00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 1: I'm not sure what's true and what's not. Did Russia

278
00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 6: we can get all of our nutrients from stacking up

279
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,680
Speaker 6: on protein and we ignore other vital ones.

280

281
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:18,880

Speaker 2: the Free Press they were joking about, all right, we've

302
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,680
Speaker 2: become too protein obsessed. There was some sort of bowl

303
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,400

Speaker 1: about it.

309
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:35,880

00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 1: to get on top of this, unless you know, unless

316
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: something horribly illegal happened, then I suppose they're in cover

317
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 1: up mode.

318
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 2: Right, And there have been a couple of different stories

319
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:03,120
Speaker 2: that have been floated. Well, we were just trying to

320
00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 2: destroy the rest of the wreckage because it was Lena

321
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,639
Speaker 2: Sea Lane or no, we were trying to destroy the

322
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,480
Speaker 2: drugs because that was the point destroying the drugs. Those

323
00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 2: poor fellows, we didn't even notice them there. They need

324
00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 2: to get one story to stick with it.

325
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yesterday it sure looked like they're trying to

326
00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 1: pin it on that admiral make it his decision, and

327
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:22,199
Speaker 1: I wonder what he's thinking about that.

328
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 2: We got a lot more secret Armstrong and Getty, Yes

329
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:31,920
Speaker 2: about my Mr heemmerize it very I get over the

330
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: wall tie to release So will you tell us what.

331
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:39,199
Speaker 5: It with governor Wolves, I mean the incompetent governors. So

332
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 5: if they want to release it, it's okay with me

333
00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,680
Speaker 5: to release it.

334
00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,800
Speaker 2: It's perfect. It's my phone call where I got it beached.

335
00:17:46,840 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: It's absolutely perfect.

336
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 5: So if you want to hear about it, or if

337
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 5: you want to release it, do you want to have

338
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 5: it released? Newstation Failing Failing News Nation News nation is

339
00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,120
Speaker 5: doing allowed to see, by the way, but if you want.

340
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:03,200
Speaker 2: To have it released, we were looking at it for

341
00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 2: what release. I know, what part of your body was

342
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 2: the MRI I looking?

343
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 5: I have no idea.

344
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 2: It was just an m R. What part of the

345
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,000
Speaker 2: body it wasn't the.

346
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 5: Brain because I took a cognitive fest and I hastened.

347
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 5: I got a perfect mark which you would be incapable

348
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 5: of doing. Goodbye everybody, YouTube.

349
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:22,439
Speaker 2: So that's that's that's that. We had that clip yesterday.

350
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: There's a new clip out Hanson so and and when

351
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 1: the new clip, Trompe is asked about it, and and

352
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,720
Speaker 1: he says, he talks about where the MRI I wasn't

353
00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: if he said, and they said it was the best

354
00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:33,160
Speaker 1: IMR they'd ever see.

355
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,199
Speaker 2: I just us, I'm sorry, I'm just shaking my hat.

356
00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,919
Speaker 1: And it was the best MR. They told me it

357
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:44,080
Speaker 1: was the best MRI they'd ever seen. And that is

358
00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,199
Speaker 1: absolutely hilarious. We have that clip. We should have been

359
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 1: had an m R MRI and uh in the machine,

360
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: you know, the whole thing, and it was perfect. It

361
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:57,160
Speaker 1: was perfect. His MRI was perfect, you know, the whole

362
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: machine and the other thing. And that my MRI was perfect.

363
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 1: What an interesting personality that is. It's just so funny,

364
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 1: and it seems like he's never heard of an MRI

365
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 1: in his life, and he has no idea what it is.

366
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:12,440
Speaker 2: Even though he just got one.

367
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,800
Speaker 1: And I think he honestly doesn't know why he got one,

368
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 1: or what part of his body or how they work.

369
00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 2: They either find something or they don't.

370
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: You don't have like a perfect MRI or like a

371
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:24,800
Speaker 1: really good one, or there's not a score.

372
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,639
Speaker 2: No.

373
00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: But he is on the phone to putin during the

374
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: awesome you know, so your headline today, white House defends

375
00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: hegzeth overstrike on alleged drug vote that killed survivors. Press

376
00:19:37,080 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: secretary says the admiral who ordered the second strike, which

377
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,600
Speaker 1: killed survivors of the initial attack, was unacting under the

378
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:47,280
Speaker 1: Pentagon chief's authority.

379
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 2: So that's interesting. Again, we just don't know some of

380
00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,159
Speaker 2: the key facts, and so this is just you know,

381
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,359
Speaker 2: exploring possibilities, you can call it speculations. Yeah, but some

382
00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:03,959
Speaker 2: of the people that could fill in those facts aren't

383
00:20:04,280 --> 00:20:08,399
Speaker 2: and that's its own story. Yeah, And I find some

384
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,679
Speaker 2: of this kind of loyally. Admiral Bradley, the head of

385
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:15,520
Speaker 2: Special Operations Command by the Way Navy Seal, honorable man,

386
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 2: great service record, not a blemish. Of course, these days,

387
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,119
Speaker 2: if you have a single blemish, you disappear, which is

388
00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,159
Speaker 2: probably not a great system. But anyway, he was acting

389
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 2: legally under authority to use lethal force granted by Hegzeth

390
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,560
Speaker 2: and continuing in conducting the attacks on the boat. According

391
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: to the White House Press Secretary White House Defensive Hegseth

392
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: followed a report Friday in the WAPO that he gave

393
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 2: a spoken order to kill them all aboard the vessel. Again,

394
00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:50,359
Speaker 2: the denials are a little bit loyally, probably because there

395
00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 2: could be lawyers involved at some point. Anyway, we got

396
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 2: a bunch of different emails about this topic. Do you

397
00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:01,400
Speaker 2: want to add anything else to the accusations and denys description, Well,

398
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,400
Speaker 2: I don't. It's it's just not clear to me everything

399
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 2: like he was operating under a lawful order by the

400
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:11,160
Speaker 2: Secretary of Defense.

401
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 1: I don't know why if nothing bad happened, why Pete

402
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 1: Hegseth wouldn't just come out and say, look, this is

403
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: what happened.

404
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 2: We spotted a boat.

405
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,160
Speaker 1: I gave the order to you know, and then say

406
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:25,560
Speaker 1: whatever you said, and then he then he hit it,

407
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 1: and then there were, and then there was a second strike.

408
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 1: For this reason, just come out and say that and

409
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: show the video. I don't know why you wouldn't do

410
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 1: that unless something bad happened. Well, last night, Hegsath posted

411
00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 1: on social media that the September second attacks were Bradley's decision.

412
00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 2: Let me make one thing crystal clear. Admiral Mitch Bradley's

413
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,239
Speaker 2: an American hero, a true professional that has my one

414
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 2: hundred percent support. I stand by him in the combat

415
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,560
Speaker 2: decisions he has made on the September second mission and

416
00:21:54,640 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 2: all others since. And then the White House Carolan Levitt

417
00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 2: said that Bradley had directed the attacks. Quote on September

418
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,560
Speaker 2: second Secretary of Hegxeth authorized Admiral Bradley to conduct these

419
00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,720
Speaker 2: kinetic strikes. Admiral Bradley worked well within his authority in

420
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,760
Speaker 2: the law, directing the engagement to ensure the boat was

421
00:22:12,800 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 2: destroyed and the threat to the United States of America

422
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,520
Speaker 2: was eliminated. Yes see, that's.

423
00:22:16,400 --> 00:22:18,360
Speaker 1: Where it made the turn yesterday later in the day

424
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:20,320
Speaker 1: where I felt like they were trying to put it

425
00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:25,000
Speaker 1: on this Bradley guy. Yeah, but so is the story

426
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: right now?

427
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:26,440
Speaker 2: Then?

428
00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,320
Speaker 1: So Pete gave the order kill them all, which is

429
00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:32,800
Speaker 1: that is that the normal order to strike a boat,

430
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,679
Speaker 1: I mean, is the goal to kill everybody in the

431
00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: boat or stop the boat.

432
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 2: Stop the boat just because if there are survivors who

433
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,399
Speaker 2: are helpless and no longer a threat, and some people

434
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,560
Speaker 2: you know are saying, well, they're still part of a

435
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,440
Speaker 2: drug running operation, so that was a threat. No, that's

436
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,280
Speaker 2: that's not the way military law works, or you know,

437
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 2: American law works.

438
00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:56,840
Speaker 1: But so they're trying to go with Pete ordered. Pete says,

439
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 1: kill them all. They hit the boat once there's still

440
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 1: some people left, and that admiral guy took it as well.

441
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 1: Pete told me to kill them all. So I guess

442
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,120
Speaker 1: I got to kill these two guys and made a mistake.

443
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:11,840
Speaker 2: Well, although there's another story floating around that No, he

444
00:23:11,880 --> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 2: wasn't trying to kill the guys. He was trying to

445
00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,680
Speaker 2: take out the rest of the boat or destroy the

446
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: drugs or something. And you know, you could claim that

447
00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: in the heat of it he didn't notice the dudes.

448
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:25,760
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. That's not been made clear.

449
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: Got a handful of email, got a huge handful of

450
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:33,959
Speaker 2: emails on the topic. A variety of different takes, Guys

451
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,679
Speaker 2: writes in the Hegsath, for his part, has not actually

452
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 2: denied what happened. However, some reports out of the administration

453
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 2: now claiming the second strike was because the boat was

454
00:23:41,680 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 2: still floating and not because there were survivors. That is

455
00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 2: a plausible excuse. Well, I favorite treating narco terrorist's enemy combatants.

456
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 2: I would like to note that federal law defines narcotic

457
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 2: trafficking is a criminal act, and I actually do not

458
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:54,879
Speaker 2: know that the President can just as a matter of law,

459
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 2: suddenly declare an act that Congress has decided as a

460
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,440
Speaker 2: crime to be an act of war. It's a good

461
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 2: constitutional question. Let's see, Robert, So the Wappole reports something

462
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,520
Speaker 2: quoting anonymous sources. Why is that given any credibility at all,

463
00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:12,639
Speaker 2: Given the history of the Wappole with fabricating things. This

464
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 2: dude was just put in place on August first and

465
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:17,320
Speaker 2: is a Navy seal. I'm guessing he knows the lawn

466
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:20,280
Speaker 2: isn't afraid of the sec deaf. This is an entire

467
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 2: argument against a straw man to put and keep it

468
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,800
Speaker 2: in the news unless there's proof this order exists or

469
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: something happened that was illegal. This is just somebody trying

470
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 2: to make news and then the media reporting on that. Essentially,

471
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,040
Speaker 2: the story is the story, not the facts. Our media

472
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,760
Speaker 2: is so broken. I would feel that that's true.

473
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 1: I would feel that way if you didn't have the

474
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: Republican chairs of a couple of committees saying, this looks bad.

475
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 2: We need to investigate this. Yeah, I would agree, And

476
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 2: so we're waiting for the facts for what it's worth. Robert,

477
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:53,439
Speaker 2: thanks for the note this from Dave on the drug boat. Please,

478
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,680
Speaker 2: why do you keep reporting anonymous Trump administration hit pieces

479
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: like the recent story about the rudderless FBI report written

480
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,000
Speaker 2: by twenty anonymous former and current agents. Please guys be

481
00:25:03,080 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 2: more skeptical. Okay, don't write to us, right to the

482
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,560
Speaker 2: heads of Republican committees who are saying, hey, this looks serious,

483
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 2: we need to look into it. Yeah, that's what gives

484
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 2: it credibility to me.

485
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: If the Republican chair because Republicans don't have to investigate

486
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 1: anything in the House unless they decide to, and they've

487
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,440
Speaker 1: decided to investigate this. If the Republican chair of a

488
00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,520
Speaker 1: couple of different committees had come out and said, now,

489
00:25:23,520 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: this is anonymous sources, we talked to Pete, this didn't happen. Okay,

490
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,600
Speaker 1: that would be a different story. But they said, this

491
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,159
Speaker 1: looks bad. We need to look into it.

492
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,440
Speaker 2: About this from Brian critical distinctions in the hag Seth

493
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 2: controversy number one, Hegxeth and others are saying that Pete

494
00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,200
Speaker 2: gave the initial order but not the follow up order

495
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 2: for the second strike that was done by an admiral.

496
00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 1: Two.

497
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 2: They were targeting the boat and its content of drugs,

498
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:46,639
Speaker 2: not that people clinging to the sides. They were concerned

499
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 2: that the cartels would send another boat to retrieve the cargo,

500
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 2: and the cargo was the concern. Let's see, okay, come.

501
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:00,439
Speaker 1: So that kind of makes sense. I guess yes, I

502
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,520
Speaker 1: don't know what the rules are there. If the goal

503
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:10,760
Speaker 1: is to destroy a munition's depot someplace, and he got

504
00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,879
Speaker 1: a bunch of soldiers around there and the first strike

505
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 1: does not destroy the thing, do you hit it again,

506
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:19,159
Speaker 1: even if there's dudes standing there. I would think that

507
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,359
Speaker 1: you would hit it again, since the goal was to

508
00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:26,680
Speaker 1: destroy the munition's depot, right, Yeah, I would agree. Sideshow

509
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:27,200
Speaker 1: Bob Wrights.

510
00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,040
Speaker 2: Could someone please explain to me why Venezuela and drug

511
00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 2: smugglers deserve death, but Honduran drug smugglers deserve freedom. I'm

512
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,560
Speaker 2: pretty sure I know the answer, and it's an obvious one,

513
00:26:36,600 --> 00:26:38,159
Speaker 2: but I'd love to hear some other theories, just for

514
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,680
Speaker 2: Essa's and giggles. As a reference to Trump saying he

515
00:26:41,760 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 2: was going to pardon the former president of Honduras who's

516
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 2: in American jails for the rest of his days because

517
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,920
Speaker 2: he accepted zillions of dollars in bribes to let the

518
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:55,800
Speaker 2: cartels run Honduras, allegedly, Trump is saying, no, that was

519
00:26:55,840 --> 00:27:00,479
Speaker 2: a Biden administration cooked up cooperation with the left dists

520
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 2: of Honduras to frame this poor man. The prosecutors of

521
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 2: the Justice Department disagreed rather strongly with that. I don't know.

522
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 2: I haven't looked into the story. It seems odd timing. Yeah,

523
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 2: I don't know that story at Also, I will not

524
00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:16,000
Speaker 2: weigh in. Yeah.

525
00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:19,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, well so a big variety, quite a variety of responses.

526
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: The fact that they're not just getting to just getting

527
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:29,440
Speaker 1: it out concerns me. Yeah. I would think they could

528
00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:32,240
Speaker 1: put this to bed pretty quickly if they were completely

529
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:33,960
Speaker 1: on the right side.

530
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 2: Of this, right, if you could say I wasn't there,

531
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 2: that's not my knife you just say that, but again

532
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,400
Speaker 2: we'll say fog of war, etc. Hey a quick word

Speaker 2: I am just to go back to the MRI.

562
00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 1: Can you possibly explain how anybody would ever say, I

563
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 1: don't know what they got an MRI on what that

564
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:12,840
Speaker 1: would be about.

565
00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 2: No, somebody emailed us guys. Since their budget is unlimited

566
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 2: for medical care for the president, they probably just did

567
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:26,080
Speaker 2: like a whole body MRI. You wouldn't be curious yourself.

568
00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 2: What are you chicking? Oh yeah, yeah, but I'm not Trump.

569
00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,360
Speaker 2: How his brain works as a complete mystery to me.

570
00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 1: I know, yeah, if it's probably just think he I

571
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: think he feels he's like invincible, like immortal, So he

572
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:41,960
Speaker 1: doesn't think much about health stuff.

573
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 2: I think that's part of it.

574
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:47,440
Speaker 1: And so he's not like a guy who's constantly worried about, Oh, well,

575
00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:48,840
Speaker 1: I got a pain, I wonder what that is. I

576
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:52,160
Speaker 1: think he's the exact opposite of that, right, the opposite

577
00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: of a hypochondriac. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's interesting. Now, okay,

578
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,040
Speaker 1: we got some actual mail bag to get to. That's

579
00:29:59,040 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: not about the second strike, which could be quite a

580
00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 1: story for a while. Man, we got to look into

581
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: some of these economic numbers and polls that are out today.

582
00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 1: How are people so scared about their personal finances yet

583
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 1: spending so much, it seems for Christmas? I'm not quite sure.

584
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:19,600
Speaker 1: Lots on the ways to hear. Somehow this became an

585
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,520
Speaker 1: off air conversation. How many kids does Pete Hegzeth has?

586
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 1: He is the biological father of four, stepfather to three,

587
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 1: for a total of seven.

588
00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:29,960
Speaker 2: There you go, lovely, I'll keep your family man. Yep,

589
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:32,600
Speaker 2: here here's your freedom loving quote of the day, continuing

590
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 2: our series from James A. Garfield, inspired by the new

591
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:38,720
Speaker 2: Netflix series Death by Lightning, which Judy and I got

592
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:42,360
Speaker 2: through episode two last night very entertaining. He liked Lasagnan

593
00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 2: was lazy. Is that what we know about President Garfield?

594
00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,600
Speaker 2: You're thinking of the cat Garfield? I believe there. I

595
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,120
Speaker 2: like this one. If wrinkles must be written on our brows,

596
00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:53,280
Speaker 2: let them not be written upon the heart. The spirit

597
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 2: should never growled that's a nice sentiment. This one's a

598
00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 2: little more to the point. He who controls the money

599
00:30:59,280 --> 00:31:05,760
Speaker 2: supply of an a controls the nation. Oh oh, Garfield

600
00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 2: for the win. I gotta watch that show. I gotta

601
00:31:07,320 --> 00:31:11,120
Speaker 2: admit I know nothing about James A. Garfield. I find

602
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: myself inspired to learn more about the fellow. He seems

603
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 2: to be a man of real honor and integrity, which

604
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 2: is a rarity. Of course, you never know how fictionalized

605
00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 2: these things, which is why I want to dig into it. Yeah,

606
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 2: mailbag could be based on a true story like the

607
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:27,760
Speaker 2: Texas chainsaw massacre.

608
00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, there was once a guy with a chainsaw.

609
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: That's where the reality ends. The occasionally insightful Magnus in

610
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:39,800
Speaker 1: Tucson writes, can you ask Jack to address the question

611
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 1: of there are any admirable admirals in the electrical college place?

612
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 2: That's funny. I believe they're commenting on my inability to speak. Well.

613
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: The electoral college thing is, you know, that's yours. But

614
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 2: the saying admirable when you're trying to say admiral, I

615
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 2: do that one too. Let's see, speaking of speech, Jeff

616
00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 2: Listener from day one, Thanks Jeff has phrases to be

617
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 2: exempted from free speech. It should be against the law

618
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 2: to utter these three phrases let me be clear. Yeah

619
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:14,560
Speaker 2: that if somebody says that they're about to be utterly

620
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 2: unclear and completely dishonest. So his phrases are let me

621
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 2: be clear, make no mistake, and period full stop.

622
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 1: Oh all right, one more honorable mention. I don't know

623
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:28,680
Speaker 1: who needs to hear this, but not sure I've heard

624
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 1: that one much.

625
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 2: Let me be clear.

626
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:37,040
Speaker 1: Perry full stop is a favorite of Gavin Newsom. Oh god,

627
00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: I hate it.

628
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: Then Jared and Missouri writes guys Armstrong e giddy Hour two?

629
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: Can we come together to prevent this obvious approaching catastrophe

630
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 2: the taxes versus debt? No, we can't until it's too late.

631
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:53,000
Speaker 2: A in g hour four? Can we come together to

632
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:58,320
Speaker 2: prevent this obvious approaching catastrophe? AI hope springs eternal? Yeah,

633
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 2: but Jared I jumped in and say that hope is false.

634
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 2: So doo dooo.

635
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,040
Speaker 1: What's your p doom? We'll have to talk about that later.

636
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:10,440
Speaker 1: That's a popular phrase they throw around in the AI world.

637
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: What's your p doom? Your percentage of doom? Maybe we'll

638
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: get to that later.

639
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 2: Okay, speaking of AI theron rights, don't worry. AI will

640
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 2: probably only wipe out half the population in the beginning

641
00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,680
Speaker 2: to conserve more energy for its own consumption in order

642
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,080
Speaker 2: to become even more intelligent. It would not be until

643
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 2: AI can produce robots that can do the maintenance at

644
00:33:29,400 --> 00:33:32,200
Speaker 2: power plants and on the servers that it is needed

645
00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,000
Speaker 2: to keep AI functioning properly that it will finally decide

646
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 2: what to do with the rest of humanity. I'm sure

647
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 2: AI will keep at least a few humans for its

648
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 2: own personal entertainment, kind of like what humans do with pets. Well,

649
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 2: pets have well humans have millions and millions and millions

650
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,800
Speaker 2: and millions of pets. So i'd be an AI pet.

651
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,840
Speaker 2: I'm fairly obedient. I'll eat what's put in front of me.

652
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,000
Speaker 2: Just leave the golf channel on when you go to work.

653
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,160
Speaker 2: AI could definitely run a.

654
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 1: One of those countries where they're observing you all the time,

655
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,320
Speaker 1: what do you call it? They got cameras and video,

656
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: you know, every just watching you everywhere you go.

657
00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:08,959
Speaker 2: I'd be easy for AI to come up with. I'm sure.

658
00:34:09,400 --> 00:34:13,120
Speaker 1: Oh, just like a surveillance state. Yeah, surveillance state, A

659
00:34:13,120 --> 00:34:14,680
Speaker 1: totalitarian surveillance state.

660
00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:18,960
Speaker 2: Well, you could certainly use that phrase to describe as zoo.

661
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,240
Speaker 2: I thought you were driving it like a human zoo,

662
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:23,839
Speaker 2: a big, you know, city sized human zoo that they

663
00:34:23,840 --> 00:34:26,239
Speaker 2: could be entertained by watching us. Of course does hey,

664
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 2: I need entertainments, and he loves entertainment, but it might

665
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,960
Speaker 2: need us for other work and no freedom, and then

666
00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:35,720
Speaker 2: our vital fluids. And then John writes, on a totally

667
00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 2: different topic, we brought up this idiotic, I mean beyond idiotic, aggressively,

668
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:48,400
Speaker 2: malignantly stupid, viral article about man keeping, which described responding

669
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:51,680
Speaker 2: to his emotional needs and holding his hand when he's worried,

670
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 2: and it was essentially describing love. But now it's called

671
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 2: man keeping and women are supposed to hate it. It's

672
00:34:59,239 --> 00:35:02,560
Speaker 2: just bizarre. I wish we had more time to describe it. Actually,

673
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,520
Speaker 2: we do have a minute. Can I find it? I

674
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,560
Speaker 2: don't know, eh. Yeah.

675
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 1: It's basically trying to present as a negative the idea

676
00:35:09,920 --> 00:35:13,239
Speaker 1: of you love your husband or boyfriend and you help

677
00:35:13,320 --> 00:35:16,200
Speaker 1: him through tough times. Oh yeah, here it is, and

678
00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:17,080
Speaker 1: that's just awful.

679
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,160
Speaker 2: So you have to do that. Oh I know, I know,

680
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 2: it's terrible. It's unfair. Man Keeping describes the emotional labor

681
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 2: women end up doing in heterosexual relationships. Goes beyond remembering birthdays,

682
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 2: are coordinating social plans. It means being your partner's one

683
00:35:29,400 --> 00:35:32,920
Speaker 2: person support system, managing his stress, interpreting his moods, holding

684
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 2: his hand through feelings he won't share with anyone else.

685
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:40,880
Speaker 2: All of it unpaid, unacknowledged, and often unreciprocated. And as

686
00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:42,960
Speaker 2: Nelly Bowls writes, HM, when I was young, that was

687
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: called loving someone man or woman. We all do a

688
00:35:46,440 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 2: lot of that for our partner, but now we call

689
00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,200
Speaker 2: it man keeping and we hate it. Oh do we

690
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,280
Speaker 2: hate it? Yeah? Holding his hand through feelings ooh.

691
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 1: And men don't do that for women. And if it's

692
00:35:57,480 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 1: not reciprocated, then you're in a bad relationship. That's got

693
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:02,560
Speaker 1: nothing to do with this, right then, John writes, in

694
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:06,160
Speaker 1: regard to your discussion about man keeping, feminism made me

695
00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:07,719
Speaker 1: think of a bumper sticker I saw a couple of

696
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 1: days ago that said, quote conduct yourself with the confidence

697
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,239
Speaker 1: of a mediocre white man. I was stunned at how

698
00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,040
Speaker 1: offensive it was. Put me in a bad mood for

699
00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: an hour. The car was driven by a woman with

700
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 1: a butch haircut. It was a Subaru with a Tell

701
00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:22,840
Speaker 1: your Dog, I said, high sticker. These people are absolutely

702
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:26,400
Speaker 1: crazy high back to your dog.

703
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:27,919
Speaker 2: That's fantastic.

704
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:30,120
Speaker 1: If you missed the segment, get the podcast Armstrong and

705
00:36:30,160 --> 00:36:33,440
