1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:19,800
Speaker 2: I'm Strong and Getty and he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 3: The NBC and CBS pulling has the Democrat Party's fair

5
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:32,959
Speaker 3: abilities in the twenties. Chuck Schumer is fighting for his

6
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,160
Speaker 3: job here on the hel and they're taking this nothing

7
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 3: story and trying to blow it out proportion. And every

8
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,000
Speaker 3: time something like this happens, they call on the Republicans

9
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 3: to resign. But yet we heard nothing on them calling

10
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 3: on a vegetable that was ruling the country for four

11
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:49,440
Speaker 3: years to resign.

12
00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 4: Friend of the Armstrong and Getty Show, Senator Mark Wayne Mullen,

13
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 4: doing what you got to do for your team. This

14
00:00:56,440 --> 00:00:59,280
Speaker 4: nothing story, it's not a nothing story.

15
00:00:59,320 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: I don't know.

16
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:03,680
Speaker 4: It's not watergnal scandal. That's right, it's not Watergate either,

17
00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,360
Speaker 4: but it's not a nothing story. And if you haven't

18
00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:08,840
Speaker 4: heard this, so Jeffrey Goldberg, not liking being challenged on

19
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 4: the whole what were they war plans or not?

20
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:14,280
Speaker 2: Thing? Has released and was it classified or not?

21
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, was released a whole bunch more of the signal

22
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 4: chat showing that it is absolutely war plans. Now you know, again,

23
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 4: how long this scandal lasts, I don't know.

24
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:27,360
Speaker 2: Yeah.

25
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 1: And number one did Mark Wayne Mullen just called the

26
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,320
Speaker 1: former president of vegetable I believe so, Yes.

27
00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:40,160
Speaker 4: It's overstated it somewhat but close and had it Yeah,

28
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,080
Speaker 4: non compassmentus definitely, but not quite a vegetable Anyway.

29
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: Where were we?

30
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 4: Ah?

31
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: Yes, So last hour we were criticizing the Trump administrations

32
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: handling of this crisis because they're they're fighting it and

33
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 1: calling Goldberg a crackpot and saying there was nothing classified.

34
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,160
Speaker 1: It wasn't battle plans. And the more it gets released,

35
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: the more they just they should have said, hey, it

36
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 1: was a mistake, miscalculation, We've learned from it.

37
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: It will not be repeated.

38
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: Thank you to mister Goldberg for his restraint in not

39
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: publishing the particulars to protect our troops.

40
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 2: It would have been over over over.

41
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 4: I wonder if some of this is lawyer stuff where

42
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 4: we can't admit they were battle plans, because then we

43
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 4: have committed a crime.

44
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,919
Speaker 2: Wow, and we're in trouble. I'm looking up at CNN.

45
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 4: They've got more of this and says Intel chiefs testify

46
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 4: as group chat fallout grows.

47
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 2: Do you think the group chat fallout is growing still? Uh? Yeah,

48
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 2: it is.

49
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: Today just because of those details in the Atlantic. I

50
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,639
Speaker 1: mean that again, I don't think would have come out

51
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,840
Speaker 1: most of them if they had just confessed to their

52
00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: sins and mistakes and moved on. I mean, it was

53
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: a great strike, successful for a good reason, and you

54
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: know it certainly could have endangered our pilots what they

55
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 1: did and how they did it.

56
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 2: So, oh my god, really uncool.

57
00:02:56,600 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 4: You talk a scandal if somehow because the one dude

58
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: was in Russia while was this going on anyway, if

59
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 4: they've been able.

60
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:03,520
Speaker 2: To give it cough.

61
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, if somehow the Huthi's had gotten tipped off and

62
00:03:06,960 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 4: you could connect any dots that it made a difference.

63
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,840
Speaker 2: Wooh, then this would be really a scandal, right.

64
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 1: I just if you live long enough, friends and a

65
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: lot of you have. You know, sometimes you say I

66
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: screwed up, I'm sorry, it's on me, and.

67
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 2: That makes things go away in a way. Anyway.

68
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: So we got a little bit of a reaction this

69
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: from uh Paolo. It's clear that stupid concerning mistakes were made.

70
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: Read them, Yeman strikes. Why aren't they trying to spend

71
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: the particulars of the mistakes, and so unconcerned with making

72
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 1: it clear that they're lying to save face. Even if

73
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: you believe everything they're saying, they still look incompetent. Uh yeah,

74
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 1: I agree. Obviously we got this from Kelly and Kansas.

75
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 1: The Trump administration has already confirmed the signal meeting. Why

76
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: do we need every detail of who's responsible? The Democrats

77
00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,839
Speaker 1: have never admitted or taken responsibility for, or been held

78
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 1: to account for anything. Hillary's private emare tapes in clinton

79
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:05,480
Speaker 1: sock drawer, Biden's unsecured classified documents, leaders of leakers of

80
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: the Dobbs opinion, open Southern Border, et cetera, et cetera.

81
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,520
Speaker 1: So Sparris, the fake outrage Democrats, Well, that's politics, fake outrage. Yeah,

82
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 1: and Kelly, I want my team to win. As we've

83
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 1: said before, I often liken it to sports talk. My

84
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,840
Speaker 1: quarter throw quarterback throws three consecutive interceptions. I'm gonna say, hey,

85
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: he needs to be more careful. That doesn't mean I

86
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: liked Kamala Harris or that I want the Trump administration

87
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 1: to fail.

88
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 2: They just have to do a better job. I don't

89
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:33,280
Speaker 2: even know if you need to go that far whose team?

90
00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 5: What?

91
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 4: Just let me know. I don't even need to know

92
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 4: the team. All those things were bad, including this one.

93
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,120
Speaker 2: Right agreed? Yeah, you're right.

94
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: Are they utterly inconsistent hypocrites? Yes, Kelly, Yes, they are

95
00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 1: my friend one hundred percent. So moving along. You know

96
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: one of my favorite Bob Dylan songs. I still haven't

97
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: seen that. Dang Nan old Timothy or Shallomey movie. Dylan movie.

98
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 2: Oh you haven't. You'll like it? And I thought I

99
00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: would hate it. I swear to god it.

100
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: Every time I think of going to a theater, I think, no,

101
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: they showing the Joe Getty story, and I would think

102
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: people talk.

103
00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:16,600
Speaker 2: And they rattle their their rappers and stuff, and now.

104
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:22,440
Speaker 4: Unknown recordings of childhood athletic heroics they put in a film,

105
00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 4: and you think, nah.

106
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:30,159
Speaker 1: No, what Getty hero to millions now in theaters? Ah wait,

107
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:34,159
Speaker 1: let's on Netflix. What keeps you out of the theater?

108
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: I don't know, just the whole experience of getting there

109
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 1: and driving, parking, waiting and sitting and watching a bunch

110
00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 1: of heads and then somebody's talking.

111
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,160
Speaker 2: It's funny you are with that the way I am

112
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 2: with flying. I hate flying. I hate it. I'm not

113
00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:47,840
Speaker 2: scared of it or anything like that.

114
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 4: Just the whole thing, the driving, the parking, the bag,

115
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 4: the security, just all of it.

116
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: I hate, Yeah, I sympathize anyway.

117
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 2: So where were we?

118
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: Oh, Bob Dylan, that's right, I'm tempted to tell a story.

119
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 1: Isn't a side, but I want one of my favorite

120
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,440
Speaker 1: Bob Dylan songs from his Christian phase. I can't remember

121
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 1: what album might have been, Slow Trained Coming Is, or

122
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: maybe it's on Infidels, I don't know is Man of Peace,

123
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: and the key line in it is sometimes Satan comes

124
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: as a man of peace.

125
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:21,600
Speaker 2: Did you know this?

126
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 4: Bob Dylan born a Jew, living a Jew all of

127
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 4: a sudden in the mid seventies. It happened in Albuquerque.

128
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 4: I think I was reading about this the other day

129
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 4: in a hotel room. He gets struck by the by

130
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:37,599
Speaker 4: Jesus and he goes full hundred percent Christian for quite

131
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 4: a few years.

132
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,440
Speaker 2: You got to save somebody.

133
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:42,559
Speaker 1: It may be the devil and it may be the Lord,

134
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 1: but you kind of have to save something.

135
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 4: You might be the heavyweight champion of the world. You

136
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 4: gotta serve somebody, that's right. Anyway, Sometimes Satan comes as

137
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 4: a man of peace. Sometimes Satan comes as a protector

138
00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,040
Speaker 4: of children. And I speak of the teachers' unions suing

139
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 4: the Trump administration this week for trying to a ball

140
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 4: the Education Department, which is not a surprise because the

141
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 4: Department of Education, as we've been detailing in the recent days,

142
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,440
Speaker 4: was created at the behest of the teachers unions by

143
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 4: Jimmy Carter, who knew at the time it was a

144
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 4: bad idea. He said, so Democratic Congress people we've quoted

145
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 4: saying this is not a good idea.

146
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: And the Department of Education has mainly served to advance

147
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 1: the agenda of the teachers union for more spending and

148
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,640
Speaker 1: less accountability through the years. They are perhaps have been

149
00:07:32,760 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: formed with honest aims of protecting teachers and making sure

150
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:43,480
Speaker 1: teachers are paid adequately and not fired arbitrarily. I get that,

151
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: but they have absolutely become what Bob Dylan was talking about.

152
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 1: They have become a force for evil, and they would

153
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: feed children into the wood chipper, perhaps not literally, but

154
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 1: damn close to profit. I speak of Randy Weingarten, not

155
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:01,760
Speaker 1: your data day teachers, many of whom are very very

156
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,760
Speaker 1: good people, but the unions have become unspeakably evil.

157
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 2: And if you don't know how it works.

158
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: So among the chief duties of the Education Department is

159
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:14,520
Speaker 1: to dole out federal money, which is somewhere around ten

160
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 1: percent of all education spunding funding. Rather spending funding spunding,

161
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: I combine them. Ninety percent is state and local government.

162
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:28,760
Speaker 1: But as ms McMahon, Linda McMahon, who's running and soon shutting,

163
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,960
Speaker 1: I hope the Education Department points out, quote, a lot

164
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: of the funding that goes into the states now goes

165
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 1: with a lot of red tape, a lot of strings

166
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,319
Speaker 1: attached to it. And the Trump administration, and I want

167
00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:43,319
Speaker 1: you to hear this loud and clear. If you have

168
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:46,959
Speaker 1: heard the local Teachers Union, which represents probably some of

169
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,440
Speaker 1: your friends and neighbors, say, welssa's going to yank the

170
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,640
Speaker 1: money away from the special needs kids and the poorer kids.

171
00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 1: You're going to have poor legless children starving because they

172
00:08:58,080 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 1: can't get lunch at school sort of thing. Here's the

173
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,920
Speaker 1: evil aim of the Trump administration. They want to make

174
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 1: sure that quote the funding continues, but that the states

175
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,679
Speaker 1: are allowed to spend the money where they need to

176
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:13,400
Speaker 1: spend it, instead of where the federal government says they

177
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 1: must spend now the federal government which is dancing to

178
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 1: the tune of the teachers' unions.

179
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 2: I hadn't heard this. This is not being covered well.

180
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:24,760
Speaker 1: And you know what's really interesting, this is some great perspective.

181
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,679
Speaker 1: The bigger problem may be that the federal funding program

182
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: for disadvantage students has a near perfect record of being

183
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:37,160
Speaker 1: ineffective in improving outcomes. It is absolutely shoving money down

184
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: a rat.

185
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:41,920
Speaker 2: Hole whatever that means. What hole in nineteen sixty six?

186
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 2: Rat hole? Rat hole?

187
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 1: In nineteen sixty six, a year after Title one was

188
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,600
Speaker 1: I'm not going to give you the history. It's federal

189
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 1: funding of education was created. A frustrated Robert F. Kennedy,

190
00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:59,840
Speaker 1: not the new super tanned buff one with the weird voice,

191
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,920
Speaker 1: the old or the original the og exclaimed, what happened

192
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,240
Speaker 1: to the children? Do you mean you spent a billion

193
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,600
Speaker 1: dollars and you don't know whether they can read or not?

194
00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: Thirty five years later, Rod Page, you served under George

195
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:17,520
Speaker 1: W echoed that sentiment. Quote after spending one hundred and

196
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 1: twenty five billion dollars of Title I money over twenty

197
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 1: five years, we have virtually nothing to show for it.

198
00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 2: It' sect the War on poverty a similar situation.

199
00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 1: He's spent gazillions of dollars and haven't moved the needle

200
00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 1: poverty one. So as guardians of the status quo, quoting

201
00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal, Now, teachers' unions want the government

202
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 1: to force children into the school's union's control, and the

203
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 1: Education Department is currently constituted helps him advance that agenda.

204
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: The money continues to flow with little or no accounting

205
00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 1: whether it's being used responsibly, let alone effectively. Before you

206
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,160
Speaker 1: buy the argument that mister Trump's effort to eliminate the

207
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: Education Department will be detrimental to students, you need to

208
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: buy the argument that.

209
00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:56,480
Speaker 2: The department's creation.

210
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: Had anything to do with improving student outcomes.

211
00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 2: That's a hard sell.

212
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 1: As usual, teachers' unions are acting in their own interests

213
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: while pretending to act in the interests of students and families.

214
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 2: It's highly frustrating.

215
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:16,439
Speaker 1: Sometimes Satan comes as a teachers union representative.

216
00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: End of screed.

217
00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 4: So my new favorite band name is Belgrade Sound Cannon.

218
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 4: I'll tell you why that is coming up, among other things,

219
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 4: stay tuned, Armstrong.

220
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 2: And these are not savings, they're schemes.

221
00:11:31,040 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 5: I would just buying toy paper the other day, and

222
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 5: it was a five dollars discount if you had the

223
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 5: digital coupon. Now, to get that coupon, I had to

224
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 5: first download an app for Vaughan's. Then I had to

225
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,040
Speaker 5: sign up for an account. Then I had to scan

226
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 5: the proper code to get the digital coupon, And once

227
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 5: I was at the cash register, she had to manipulate

228
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 5: my phone to figure out where the barcode was.

229
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 2: This is ridiculous.

230
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:55,080
Speaker 4: Ah okay, that's what they're talking about. I've been in

231
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,760
Speaker 4: line behind people this with it slows down the line.

232
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 4: San Diego who first city to ban these digital lonely coupons,

233
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 4: which that guy there says a scam. I would never

234
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 4: I've never done that. If you're gonna make me like

235
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 4: make an account and sign up, I just know I'm

236
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 4: getting stolen from.

237
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,600
Speaker 2: So San Diego is banning them.

238
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 1: Why you can't ban that as a city and business

239
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:20,600
Speaker 1: can do what it wants if it says, look, you

240
00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: jump off through all these hoops, we'll give you five

241
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 1: bucks on your toilet off your toilet paper.

242
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 4: If you're willing to let us steal all your personal information,

243
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 4: we'll give you five bucks off. But that's a deal

244
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:32,960
Speaker 4: you make with all kinds of websites. I feel like

245
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 4: I do like long, I feel like I do like

246
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,359
Speaker 4: one a day. Right, sound for another thing with another password,

247
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,280
Speaker 4: and make the trade off of there's benefits to this

248
00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,280
Speaker 4: versus I know what the downsides are. NET sure a

249
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 4: bunch of emails from companies I've never heard of.

250
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,080
Speaker 1: Now, Well, and the nice lady there on Fox five

251
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:53,080
Speaker 1: in San Diego. Her tone of voice implied that, well,

252
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 1: every American deserves that five dollars off, and I demand

253
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,760
Speaker 1: the right to not have to do that stuff for

254
00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:01,800
Speaker 1: my five dollars off.

255
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 2: No, it's a quid pro quo.

256
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: They want access to you to promote their grocery store,

257
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 1: and in return for you giving them that means they're

258
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: giving you five bucks off on your toilet paper. That's

259
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:20,559
Speaker 1: the oh Man meddlesome America. Now, now we're gonna outlaw

260
00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: that because I don't like it. Then we're kind of

261
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,839
Speaker 1: outlawed that because I.

262
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 2: Don't like it.

263
00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, Okay, I got a couple of stories for you

264
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:31,680
Speaker 4: that don't need a whole bunch of time. Each Serbian

265
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 4: sound cannons. I like the sound of that better than Belgrade.

266
00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:39,199
Speaker 4: Belgrade in Serbia, Serbian sound Belgrade but whatever, Okay, Bellground said,

267
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:40,960
Speaker 4: what happened to vaguely European.

268
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 2: It's got sound in it. Cannon implies power, So.

269
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,040
Speaker 4: We won't get into the politics of Serbia. But they

270
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 4: got problem the president. Big protest they think is corrupt,

271
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,080
Speaker 4: trying to drive them out office. That had huge, just

272
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:56,560
Speaker 4: absolutely huge demonstrations. Well thousands and thousands were gathered in

273
00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 4: Belgrade the other day to protest the president. Then all

274
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,040
Speaker 4: of a sudden, something I've seen the video, something caused

275
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 4: the crowd to like part and run away, and you

276
00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,880
Speaker 4: can't really hear anything or seeing anything. And there are

277
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 4: kinds of reports that the government used one of those

278
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:19,640
Speaker 4: weird sound wave things that maybe you've seen demonstrated online.

279
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:23,240
Speaker 4: Sixty Minutes had it years ago where they showed it

280
00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 4: like the Havana syndrome thing. I don't think so, it's

281
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 4: I remember when sixty Minutes demonstrated. It's like a it's

282
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 4: like a wave of sound.

283
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: That was heat.

284
00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 4: But it's it's sure, yeah, it's just it's a sound

285
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,560
Speaker 4: might be the wrong way to describe it. You hear something,

286
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 4: but that's not what makes you run away. You hear

287
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 4: loud noises all the time don't make you run.

288
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:47,720
Speaker 1: And this is energy. It's some sort of energy. Yeah,

289
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,080
Speaker 1: that makes you freak out and run away.

290
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,720
Speaker 4: This woman had never heard anything quite so alarming and

291
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 4: disturbing in a protest as a sound that broke a

292
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 4: commemorative silence during a huge anti government rally in Serbia's capital, Belgrade,

293
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 4: it was quiet and peace well, and then we heard

294
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 4: something we could not see, like a sound rolling Towrdoise.

295
00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 4: People started rushing for safety toward the payment, feeling that

296
00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 4: something was moving towardoise down the street. Wow, so that's

297
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 4: not just a sound. The perception that something's moving toward

298
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,480
Speaker 4: you down the street wouldn't just be a sound. I mean,

299
00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,880
Speaker 4: I've heard a lot of really really loud.

300
00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:24,080
Speaker 1: Sounds in my life, and you instinctively find it menacing.

301
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: Hundreds of others offered similar accounts, triggering accusations at the police, military,

302
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 4: or security services. Or somebody used an acoustic crowd control

303
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 4: weapon to target peaceful protesters. These weapons are illegal in

304
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,320
Speaker 4: Serbia in most places. Well, they're illegal until you decide

305
00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 4: you need to use them. We'll probably use them on

306
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 4: the battlefield, you know, against the Chinese. Someday and them

307
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 4: some weapon against us that we've never heard of anyway.

308
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:52,280
Speaker 4: They can trigger sharp ear pain, disorientation, ear drum ruptures,

309
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 4: even irreversible hearing damage.

310
00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:54,680
Speaker 2: Yikes.

311
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 4: And the president is denying it, saying if I use

312
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,920
Speaker 4: something like that, I'd be driven out of office immediately. Okay,

313
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 4: Well that's what they're trying to do, is drive you

314
00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 4: out office. Yeah huh right, said the protesters. I find

315
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 4: this interesting, Serbius. Police and government deny possessing the US

316
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:19,680
Speaker 4: made long range acoustic device l RAD when presented with

317
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 4: photo blah blah blah blah blah. So they might have

318
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 4: had this thing that we invented, and then one.

319
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:30,000
Speaker 1: Other the drones and this and the laser beams and microwaves.

320
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 4: Well, the next war is going to be You'll constantly

321
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:35,880
Speaker 4: in the next big war, you'll constantly be reading about

322
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 4: weapons you didn't even know existed. How much time I got,

323
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 4: Michael Oh wanted to jam this in. Okay, got another

324
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,640
Speaker 4: unpleasant story. Probably doesn't need much time. Former NFL running

325
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,160
Speaker 4: back just busted in a dog fighting ring.

326
00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 2: Thing. One hundred and ninety pit bulls uh seized.

327
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,520
Speaker 4: It's the biggest single bust of dog fighting in American

328
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 4: history against one guy. Horrifying detail that I won't get into.

329
00:17:00,920 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 4: But what is it with NFL players and dog fighting?

330
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 2: Who's the dude?

331
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,199
Speaker 4: I'd never heard of him? He played six years in

332
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 4: the NFL with a bunch of different teams. Lashawn Johnson,

333
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:13,200
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, wow, crutal.

334
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,959
Speaker 2: I'd say armstrong and getty.

335
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 4: I tended to get sidetracked by our last story that

336
00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 4: he did wrote before the commercial break, but just so ahead,

337
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 4: just say this underappreciated cultural differences among different segments of society.

338
00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 4: They busted this dog fighting ring. Former NFL player he

339
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 4: had one hundred and ninety dog whose biggest single dog

340
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 4: fighting bust in US history? But just I mean, how

341
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 4: many people had to be involved in the running of that,

342
00:17:43,560 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 4: and then how many people are involved to make it

343
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 4: worthwhile to have one hundred ninety dogs? I mean, there's

344
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 4: gotta be thousands and thousands and thousands of people that

345
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,040
Speaker 4: are participating and attending and betting on for that to exist.

346
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,240
Speaker 1: Has to be quite a few people. Anyway, I don't

347
00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:00,360
Speaker 1: know that it needs to be that many, but well,

348
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: certainly hundreds and hundreds it have to be. Yeah, it

349
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 1: would be beneficial.

350
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 4: And who do you know that wouldn't just be absolutely

351
00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:14,280
Speaker 4: shookingly horrified if they had to watch something like that,

352
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,040
Speaker 4: let alone enthusiastically participate.

353
00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, you talk about a cultural difference.

354
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 4: I know, I know way more people that would cry

355
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 4: hearing this story than I've ever known that would enjoy watching.

356
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 2: Right. Yeah. Yeah.

357
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 1: One of the most useful and simple explanation of culture.

358
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: Explanations of culture I've ever come across. Who the heck

359
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 1: wrote this name will pop it into my head. Culture

360
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 1: is how we do things around here. It's as simple

361
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:51,719
Speaker 1: and complicated as that. What's a husband's relationship with his

362
00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:55,920
Speaker 1: wife in our culture? What's our relationship with a police officer?

363
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,240
Speaker 1: That's our relationship with the government. How do we treat

364
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 1: each other when we pass a a stranger? How about

365
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 1: a friend? How does one religious denomination interact with the other?

366
00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:09,439
Speaker 1: That's all culture. Do you pet your dog and you

367
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 1: love dogs and you like donate to rescue operations? Or

368
00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,880
Speaker 1: do you have animals fight each other to the death

369
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: for your entertainment and gambling?

370
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 2: I think it's hilarious cultural difference.

371
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:22,920
Speaker 4: I gotta believe I don't know this, but I would

372
00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:26,879
Speaker 4: assume that the crowd that can watch dog fights is

373
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 4: also more okay with like domestic violence and violence in general. Shure,

374
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 4: non kids or what I gotta be, doesn't it?

375
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 2: Sure? Yeah? I think so. Oh that's horrible anyway.

376
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: There are very few cultures around the world that have

377
00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: horrifyingly violent entertainment of this sort that.

378
00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 2: Aren't more violent just in general.

379
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 1: Right anyway, speaking of violence and horror, I know what

380
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: you're thinking, same thing I've been thinking forever. When are

381
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,239
Speaker 1: we going to get like a horror movie version of

382
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:59,679
Speaker 1: Mickey Mouse? Okay, nobody's ever thought that, but Michael, I

383
00:19:59,680 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 1: guess apparently there's something like that out these days. Set

384
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:07,639
Speaker 1: sail for an adventure like no other meat Steamboat Willie.

385
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 2: He's wacky, he's wicked, and he's whistling his way into

386
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:16,280
Speaker 2: your heart. Literally, O d.

387
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:21,400
Speaker 3: All aboard the Staton iveand ferry.

388
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 2: They're all going to die when their dream voyage turns

389
00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:41,000
Speaker 2: into a nightmare. This is no fairy tam please please

390
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:45,440
Speaker 2: Steamer Screamboat. Screamboat.

391
00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 4: So if you're not familiar, Mickey Mouse originally was Steamboat

392
00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:50,480
Speaker 4: Willie nineteen twenty eight. I just looked it up almost

393
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,720
Speaker 4: one hundred years ago. The first Disney cartoon with Mickey Mouse,

394
00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 4: and they're calling it scream boat Michael.

395
00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:00,320
Speaker 2: Is that a parody because the voiceover doesn't fit with

396
00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 2: like an actual attempt to And.

397
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 1: They're going to get sued for using steamboat Willy in

398
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: their advertisement.

399
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 4: It might be public domain at this point, it's almost

400
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:11,840
Speaker 4: one hundred years old.

401
00:21:12,400 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 2: It's not a parody.

402
00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:18,439
Speaker 6: They're and they're calling him screamboat Willie.

403
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 4: Have you ever seen the stuff that becomes at the

404
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 4: first of the year. I always think this list is

405
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 4: interesting stuff that becomes public domain, and it's different limits

406
00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 4: for different things, but like songs, books, poems, videos, that's

407
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 4: the rules we have in the United States. After a

408
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 4: certain amount of time, it's just out there and anybody

409
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 4: can use it for whatever they want to.

410
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 2: Use it for. It's an interesting idea. Well, some people

411
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 2: are against it, some people are for it.

412
00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 6: And the director of this is actually a pretty great

413
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:48,639
Speaker 6: horror director. He did the Terrifier series, which if you're

414
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,320
Speaker 6: a horror fan.

415
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,600
Speaker 2: You could have made that up. As far as I'm concerned,

416
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 2: I don't have the horror fans. No, I'm not making

417
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 2: it up.

418
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 6: It's a great it's a it's a series of horror

419
00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 6: movies and they're fantastic.

420
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 1: Huh, okay, you could bond with my son.

421
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 2: He's crazy into that sort of stuff.

422
00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:09,080
Speaker 1: Encyclopediachnology writes, like serious treatises on those series and what

423
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,880
Speaker 1: they mean, and ei they're effective and it's crazy anyway,

424
00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:17,359
Speaker 1: So moving along, at least somewhat thought this was interesting.

425
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,119
Speaker 1: Joanna Stern writes a popular tech column and her headline

426
00:22:23,480 --> 00:22:26,719
Speaker 1: is I quit Google Search for AI and I'm not

427
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: going back. Oh wow, I love this, And obviously she

428
00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 1: goes into how ads and search optimized junkies made a

429
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: mess of Google.

430
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's amazing.

431
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 4: Like last night I was, I Googled a particular car dealer,

432
00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,680
Speaker 4: like the name of it, and I get eight other

433
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,440
Speaker 4: options first, right, Yeah, that's ridiculous.

434
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 2: That's not what Google used to be.

435
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she goes into, you know, the history of

436
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:56,440
Speaker 1: it and how it got kind of gummed up in

437
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,280
Speaker 1: the rest of it. I think we're all fairly familiar

438
00:22:59,440 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: with that. At she says, with AI chatbots, it's really

439
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:07,119
Speaker 1: like having that personal search Butler Chat, GPT, Microsoft Copilot

440
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: and Perplexity have real time web access, generating responses with

441
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 1: citations to external websites.

442
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:13,120
Speaker 7: Uh.

443
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 1: Last week Anthropics Claude joined the club and Google's testing

444
00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:19,119
Speaker 1: in AI mode built into search.

445
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,920
Speaker 4: Woway, I need a smart person. Maybe I'll ask U

446
00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 4: my sitter house sitter. They're good with tech. I need

447
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,680
Speaker 4: somebody to walk through how I get this on my

448
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,359
Speaker 4: phone so I can use it. I absolutely would use

449
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:36,399
Speaker 4: this instead of Google. Uh.

450
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:38,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it's actually fairly easy because they have apps

451
00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 1: in the app Store.

452
00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:45,800
Speaker 2: But when is AI better? She says, I try to

453
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 2: list all the places.

454
00:23:46,720 --> 00:23:53,479
Speaker 1: AI search beats old school search, shopping, people recipes, how tos,

455
00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:59,960
Speaker 1: movie recommendations, places to stream a recommended movie. The rundown

456
00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:02,640
Speaker 1: was longer than a CVS receipt, she said, that's long.

457
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 2: Oh so instance, who's streaming this movie?

458
00:24:08,800 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 4: Google's only going to give you the places that paid

459
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 4: them to be at the top of the list. There

460
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:15,359
Speaker 4: might be other places that are cheaper or free.

461
00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:16,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. Sure, sure it doesn't sprize.

462
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 1: It is AI search the death of the Blue Links.

463
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,880
Speaker 2: I'd say it's more a makeover than funeral. She writes.

464
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: Yes, these bots spar us from the click through marathons,

465
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 1: but if they are good at grabbing useful information from

466
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,560
Speaker 1: the web, you'll get links you actually want to click.

467
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 1: For instance, I asked all of the chatbots the same

468
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: crucial parenting question, what three D printer under five hundred

469
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 1: dollars should I buy my seven year old?

470
00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 2: And the results were very, very useful.

471
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,080
Speaker 1: Without a bunch of gummed up sales crap. Old school

472
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,200
Speaker 1: Google search was exactly what you'd expect, sponsored links, promoted products,

473
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:54,439
Speaker 1: links to best buy Amazon, YouTube videos, took several clicks

474
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 1: to even get a baseline of credible options. And if

475
00:24:57,119 --> 00:25:00,080
Speaker 1: you think I'm picking on Google bing was just as bad.

476
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 2: Well, this is the free market at worked.

477
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,880
Speaker 4: This is similar to the conversation we had last hour

478
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,680
Speaker 4: about the whole coupon thing that you were rent and

479
00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 4: raving about.

480
00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 2: This is fine. You know Google did that. They went

481
00:25:11,440 --> 00:25:11,880
Speaker 2: too far.

482
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 4: They have practically killed the golden goose, I think, and

483
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 4: it's going to drive a lot of us to try

484
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 4: something else, and then they'll probably have to back off

485
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:22,480
Speaker 4: their sponsorships if they want to keep people around.

486
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,680
Speaker 1: Oh, I needed to read a sentence and make a confession.

487
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 1: For some searches like when is the first day of

488
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 1: spring or the airtime of the Severance finale, the first

489
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,040
Speaker 1: answer is all I need. I was griping, I think

490
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,520
Speaker 1: it was yesterday about how I was watching Severance and

491
00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,359
Speaker 1: it seemed to have a story arc that might continue forever.

492
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 2: Well, I could have.

493
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,879
Speaker 1: Just Googled it or aied it or something and realized that,

494
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,560
Speaker 1: oh no, no, the season, the end of season two

495
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 1: is the end of the series, and the finale's going

496
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:49,680
Speaker 1: to air tomorrow.

497
00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 2: Oh it was decisive, It was.

498
00:25:55,040 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 1: Wild, satisfying, great sci fi ish twist. No spoilers here,

499
00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,639
Speaker 1: but I apologize for questioning the creative geniuses behind the

500
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 1: behind this.

501
00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,879
Speaker 4: They're in a booth at a pizza place and it

502
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:09,639
Speaker 4: just goes black and a journey song starts.

503
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:13,840
Speaker 1: Oh you saw it anyway, So that's up with AI?

504
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: When is Google better? And she writes, here's an easier

505
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:21,040
Speaker 1: list to draw. What Google Search is still good for

506
00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:24,360
Speaker 1: for starters? Links to any web page you already know exists,

507
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,720
Speaker 1: Adam Scott's IMDb page.

508
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,159
Speaker 2: I don't know who Adam Scott is.

509
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 1: Bob from Accounting's linked in a story you vaguely remember

510
00:26:35,040 --> 00:26:40,600
Speaker 1: calling Bluie a juggernaut. Google's still your go, Tom. And

511
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: while AI tools can recommend local restaurants and shopping, Google

512
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,160
Speaker 1: still excels at showing you accurate maps, addresses, and hours.

513
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 2: Interesting. Yeah, huh, I do think Google. I'll get used

514
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 2: to this as it comes on.

515
00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,119
Speaker 4: Google pushed it too far and they're gonna have to

516
00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 4: pare it back if they don't want to lose everybody

517
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:01,080
Speaker 4: to to something else.

518
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,440
Speaker 1: Interestingly, now and smartly, Google has its own AI.

519
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, so they get either way, they get you.

520
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,920
Speaker 4: Theoretically, Amazon has gone too far too But there's no

521
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 4: competition for Amazon, which is what some people are arguing

522
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 4: it's a monopoly or whatever.

523
00:27:15,680 --> 00:27:16,239
Speaker 2: I don't think so.

524
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,679
Speaker 4: But man, you search on some specific thing and you

525
00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:21,520
Speaker 4: get nineteen other.

526
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,360
Speaker 1: Choices first, or your first twenty seven links are sponsored,

527
00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,080
Speaker 1: and you know, okay, there it is for less per

528
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,440
Speaker 1: item with free shipping four pages in. Yeah, it's gotten

529
00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:35,919
Speaker 1: a little obnoxious than come on, Jeff, Jeff Zebasos.

530
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,639
Speaker 4: Nobody had comments on the fact that the world's first

531
00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 4: of all, how many times do I ever hear Elon

532
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,840
Speaker 4: Musk's name without World's richest man attached to it in

533
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 4: the news?

534
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 2: No, I don't, and talked about it yesterday.

535
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 4: Elon Musk, the World's richest man, thinks we need to

536
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:56,400
Speaker 4: cut back social security checks. It's either a good idea

537
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,640
Speaker 4: or not. His personal wealth has nothing to do with it.

538
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:00,960
Speaker 2: Uh.

539
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,359
Speaker 4: He ought to give away a couple hundred billion dollars.

540
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,520
Speaker 4: So he's the world second richest man, because if you're

541
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 4: the world second richest man, you can do whatever the

542
00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,600
Speaker 4: hell you want Beizo seems to care mostly about looking

543
00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 4: cool and yachts and hot chicks and stuff like that.

544
00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:19,560
Speaker 4: He gets knocked never for being the world's second richest man.

545
00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 2: Right right.

546
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 1: He's tried to reform the Washington Post at least a

547
00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 1: little bit, which is going to fail, but I appreciate

548
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 1: the effort. Oh. Speaking of which, we got an email

549
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,120
Speaker 1: from a guy the other day. I wish I could

550
00:28:29,160 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 1: give him credit. I don't remember the name, but pointing

551
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,240
Speaker 1: out that, all right, you hear twenty times a day.

552
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is the world's richest man. But MBS in

553
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: Saudi Arabia has multiples of Elon's money, multiples. Vladimir Putin

554
00:28:41,800 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 1: is believed to be, if not the richest man on earth,

555
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 1: among the richest men on earth. So Elon is the

556
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 1: richest guy whose income and wealth is disclosed earned.

557
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,960
Speaker 4: That's what I go with, and that's why we'll continue

558
00:28:55,000 --> 00:28:57,120
Speaker 4: to call him the world richest man. While that is

559
00:28:57,160 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 4: technically true and interesting, I'm giving no credit to people

560
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 4: who are thugs and thieves.

561
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,480
Speaker 2: All right, the world's my most financially successful man would

562
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 2: be yeah, one way to put it, you know, and

563
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:10,800
Speaker 2: he is.

564
00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:13,160
Speaker 4: I think he'd have to give away like I haven't

565
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 4: looked recently. I'll look it up, but like three hundred

566
00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:18,880
Speaker 4: billion dollars to drop the second place. He has really

567
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:21,760
Speaker 4: got a lot of money. He's likely, he's only fifty

568
00:29:21,760 --> 00:29:24,400
Speaker 4: two or something. He's likely to become the first trillionaire.

569
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 4: Weighty hits a trillion, you know how people like round numbers.

570
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:31,400
Speaker 2: Oh, that'll really be a big deal. Then he's super evil.

571
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,160
Speaker 1: A trillionaire is trying to cut your government services.

572
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 4: Right. I was listening to MSNBC this morning. They said,

573
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 4: do you think Elon Musk, the world's richest man, has

574
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 4: any idea what it's like for a grandmother's three hundred

575
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:47,520
Speaker 4: dollars social security check to matter?

576
00:29:48,200 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 2: All right?

577
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, right, unless I'm also poor, I can't imagine it'd

578
00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,840
Speaker 4: be impossible. Right, we'll finish. No, we're not done yet.

579
00:29:56,920 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 4: I almost thought we were done.

580
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 2: How do you like that?

581
00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:02,880
Speaker 4: Oh, it's like when you wake up and you think

582
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:06,720
Speaker 4: it's Saturday and it turns out it's Tuesday. No more

583
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 4: of the waste to hear.

584
00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 7: So the task force is going to bring together all

585
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:19,560
Speaker 7: of the cases in attacks against Tesla facilities, vehicles for

586
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,560
Speaker 7: charging stations across the country. So that'll be FBI agents

587
00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 7: working with ATF agents. Now ATF has the premier lab

588
00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:31,560
Speaker 7: when it comes to solving ARSON cases in the country,

589
00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 7: along with intelligence analysts, to develop a unified case intake

590
00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 7: system so that they can track the cases and use

591
00:30:40,320 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 7: those intelligence analysts and investigators to find out is there

592
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,760
Speaker 7: a connection between the attacks, the attackers, or any particular network,

593
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,720
Speaker 7: and to make sure that they are gathering evidence and

594
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 7: driving towards prosecutions.

595
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,520
Speaker 4: You can't claim CNN, for instance, isn't taking the attacks

596
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 4: on Tesla seriously because they've been going pretty big on it.

597
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 4: It's domestic terrors and it should get a lot of attention.

598
00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 4: And we let this slide, you know, the other side

599
00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 4: will do it or other causes and it'll just grow

600
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:07,960
Speaker 4: and grow and wrong and it will be happening all

601
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 4: the time. Absolutely undeniable. Yep, this stat yesterday bothered me.

602
00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 4: Consumer confidence index was down seven point two points, biggest

603
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:25,440
Speaker 4: drop in three years. So or go back to twenty one,

604
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 4: so that's four years middle of the pandemic. So didn't

605
00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,520
Speaker 4: like seeing that several months in a row.

606
00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 2: Two? Yeah, what's that based on the whole tar thing?

607
00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, and people have maxed out credit cards.

608
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 2: Uh, defaults are on their eyes.

609
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,240
Speaker 1: There are just savings are at a low since you

610
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,120
Speaker 1: know several years ago. There are just a number of

611
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 1: not so great indicators.

612
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,840
Speaker 4: Colorado, their state houses agreed to remove the quote bad

613
00:31:51,960 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 4: painting of Trump after he complained about it.

614
00:31:55,400 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 2: I don't know what I think about this painting.

615
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 1: Painting deliberately painted to make him look fatter.

616
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:11,880
Speaker 2: It's gotta be it looks like a fat little baby.

617
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 4: But was that the person's best effort or you think

618
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 4: it was delivered? First of all, I'm amazed that anybody

619
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:22,160
Speaker 4: can ever sketch or paint someone and make it look

620
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 4: enough like them that you would know what was them.

621
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 2: I mean, that's just stunning to me. Stunning.

622
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,280
Speaker 4: But if you're walking through that Hall of the Presidents,

623
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,840
Speaker 4: there's not one person that would say, who's that?

624
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:35,560
Speaker 2: You know it's Donald Trump.

625
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 4: It's just an odd painting of him, and I just

626
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:41,720
Speaker 4: think of lots of paintings I've seen, or that MLK.

627
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 2: Memorial they've got in Washington, d C. It doesn't Oh,

628
00:32:45,600 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 2: is that who that is?

629
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 4: It doesn't look anything like MLKA that If you told

630
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 4: me who's this, I wouldn't have been able to guess.

631
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:54,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

632
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 4: So, And that wasn't on purpose to make MLK look bad.

633
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 4: It just was an artist rendering that didn't go. Oh well,

634
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 4: right anyway, I don't think Trump's out of line to say,

635
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 4: can I get one that's not quite so roundheaded?

636
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,520
Speaker 1: He really looks like a fat toddler Trump. It reminds

637
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: me of that big Trump and a diaper that was

638
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,560
Speaker 1: popular in Europe there for a while.

639
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 2: Oh right, a big balloon. Yeah.

640
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 1: Hey, Can I throw in one more quick note on

641
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:26,120
Speaker 1: the AI thing we were talking about a minute or

642
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 1: two ago. The journalist points out that while I'm in

643
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,239
Speaker 1: favor of shifting the stale search paradigm, I do have

644
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:34,920
Speaker 1: AI reservations. These systems hoover up answers from the Internet,

645
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 1: but rarely push you to the original source. Your trusted

646
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:42,120
Speaker 1: sources of information, like her publication in the Wall Street Journal,

647
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,560
Speaker 1: stand to lose visibility, subscribers, and traffic. If too many

648
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: online platforms suffer, will end up losing the open web

649
00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: in exchange for one big answer machine with zero citations

650
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:53,959
Speaker 1: or accountability.

651
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,880
Speaker 2: It's an interesting way to look at it. Yeah, it is.

652
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 4: And you said you're going to sign up for some

653
00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 4: AI and start dabbling. I think that great. I've been

654
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:05,960
Speaker 4: promising to do it, but I haven't. I've let the

655
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 4: show down. I haven't done it yet.

656
00:34:08,200 --> 00:34:14,280
Speaker 1: Yes, again, mostly for search purposes. I love the idea

657
00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 1: of like playing around with image creation or video creation

658
00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: with the prompts, or music creation, I suppose, but honestly

659
00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,080
Speaker 1: I should at least spend a day on it or something.

660
00:34:24,239 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 1: I would rather make real music or watch the birds

661
00:34:27,120 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 1: flying back and forth or whatever.

662
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:29,759
Speaker 2: I don't know.

663
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't need writing do that, but I would

664
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 4: love to get into spend more time with various AI chatbots,

665
00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 4: you know, asking it questions about historical facts or whatever,

666
00:34:39,560 --> 00:34:43,240
Speaker 4: and just seeing kind of answers. Again, I'm pretty interested

667
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 4: in that, and I certainly read about it A lot

668
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,239
Speaker 4: came across the shoesh today. I'm going to throw it out.

669
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,319
Speaker 4: One of those sayings you see every now and then.

670
00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 2: I really liked this.

671
00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 4: If you're worried about the cost of going for it,

672
00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,799
Speaker 4: you should see the price of staying exactly where you are.

673
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:05,319
Speaker 2: Mm I like it. I thought that was fantastic, Speaking of.

674
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:09,360
Speaker 1: Fantastic, more intormation to come during our four. Wait what,

675
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 1: you don't get our four? You've got to go somewhere.

676
00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 2: That's fine. Grab it later.
