WEBVTT - I Don't Have Socks For Tomorrow! Ah Crap! 0:00:01.920 --> 0:00:06.240 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 0:00:06.280 --> 0:00:07.720 Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.880 --> 0:00:11.760 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty I'm Strong and Jettie and 0:00:12.480 --> 0:00:17.640 he Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:24.040 --> 0:00:27.600 The opening act, grabbing headlines for all the wrong reasons. 0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:32.080 A comedian who offered unfunny, racist, cringe worthy. 0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:36.960 Jokes basically calling Puerto Rican's trash the most repulsive racial 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:40.440 jokes about Latino's disgusting and hateful. 0:00:40.240 --> 0:00:42.919 So incredibly crude, frankly just. 0:00:42.960 --> 0:00:47.560 Too x rated to play here, extremely wild so called jokes. 0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:52.680 Now obviously in retrospect, having a roast comedian come to 0:00:52.760 --> 0:00:55.639 a political rally a week before election day and roasting 0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:59.320 a key voting demographic probably not the best decision. 0:00:58.840 --> 0:01:00.000 By the campaign politically. 0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:04.080 But to be fair, the guy's really just doing what. 0:01:03.960 --> 0:01:06.120 He does, right. 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.240 Yeah, old uh Tony Hinchcliffe. He sold out two nights 0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:14.480 at Madison Square Garden just a little while back. I 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:18.680 guess he's really popular among young men doing very very 0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:19.360 edgy humor. 0:01:19.560 --> 0:01:23.119 Yeah, and he he refuses to apologize. I wouldn't apologize either. Hey, 0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:23.760 you hired me. 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:26.240 This is what I am. I'm really popular for what 0:01:26.280 --> 0:01:28.720 I do. Sorry you didn't like it, but I don't 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.360 know what you want from me. Right, You're gonna have 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.240 Leonard Skinner to apologize for going Doweta Le tweet leed tweet. 0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.520 Lead tweeted Lee. I mean, it just doesn't make any sense. 0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:37.520 You hired them. 0:01:38.520 --> 0:01:41.479 Yeah, it's it's so it is simultaneously, because I've read 0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:47.040 through the jokes simultaneously an orchestrated frantic overreaction by the 0:01:47.120 --> 0:01:48.840 left who are desperate for a narrative. 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:51.080 And also those jokes. 0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:55.639 Were terrible, I mean, like incredibly unwise in that setting, 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:57.559 because it's more than the Puerto Rico joke, the Porto 0:01:57.600 --> 0:01:59.920 Rico joke. You got to work to make that quote 0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:03.840 quote racist. We have so dumbed down what is considered 0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:07.560 racist in this country. It's laughable. On the other hand, 0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:10.000 there was some other stuff that was just objectionable. Well, 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.840 you're terrible. To your point, here's jd Vance yesterday. 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:14.239 I haven't seen the joke. 0:02:15.240 --> 0:02:19.040 You know, maybe it's a stupid racist shoke, as you said, 0:02:19.160 --> 0:02:19.679 maybe it's not. 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:20.560 I haven't seen it. 0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.760 I'm not going to comment on the specifics of the joke, 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:25.239 but I think that we have to stop getting so 0:02:25.400 --> 0:02:28.080 offended at every little thing in the United States of America. 0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.079 I'm just I'm so over it. So anyway, there's that 0:02:32.360 --> 0:02:32.760 view of it. 0:02:33.600 --> 0:02:37.359 John Stewart did play some of the guys act not 0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:41.680 from Sunday Night, but like his regular act and we're 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:44.119 really edgy jokes and came back to John Stuart's laughing 0:02:44.160 --> 0:02:45.840 and say, I'm sorry, I find the guy funny. 0:02:46.480 --> 0:02:47.839 Yes, I just knew. 0:02:48.120 --> 0:02:51.359 Well yeah, but again, like you're your point was, that's 0:02:51.440 --> 0:02:54.120 not the kind of person you put in your rally 0:02:55.160 --> 0:02:58.239 a week out from an election mass appeal. It just 0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:00.440 it's I don't know. 0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:01.320 To me. 0:03:01.520 --> 0:03:04.840 The only thing you could possibly make it, like an honest. 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:10.960 Real point about is it shows Trump's doesn't really care 0:03:11.040 --> 0:03:14.359 about detailed sort of way of running things. 0:03:14.680 --> 0:03:16.120 That's the only conclusion you could draw. 0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:18.240 Okay, if you want to make that point, that's fine. 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:22.560 I have several different pieces of journalism slash thinking that 0:03:22.760 --> 0:03:26.440 have to do with the acute discomfort a lot of 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:32.720 working class America's feeling because of inflation. Housing costs, in 0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:39.120 particular devastating the rates of evictions are going up in 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:42.240 all sorts of significant markets, including some swing states, and 0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:47.200 it's real gut level. Oh childcare. Folks can't afford childcare. 0:03:47.240 --> 0:03:50.760 I mean, it is in your gut, can't sleep at night, 0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:55.400 economic fear that's going on. And we're talking about this 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:59.960 roast comedian's unfortunate jokes seriously America. 0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:03.480 Yeah, so I'm just looking up the TVs. 0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:08.400 I got a bank of televisions in here, and CNN, CBS, 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.320 and ABC all led with it this hour. 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:14.040 That's a joke, the Puerto Rican joke. 0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:14.440 Yeah. 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:19.240 So, anyway, at the risk of beating that point to death, 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.320 maybe we'll we'll move on. But I thought it was 0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:28.159 really interesting that Gerard Baker, who's a Trump hesitant conservative 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.080 in the Wall Street Journal, wrote a great piece about 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:36.800 how Democrats made a Trump comeback thinkable, and he talks 0:04:36.839 --> 0:04:44.720 about how the overcharged rhetoric about Trump that takes his 0:04:44.920 --> 0:04:49.599 flaws and inflaces them to just almost hilarious levels. People 0:04:49.680 --> 0:04:53.400 see through that sort of thing, And he said, though 0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.800 Trump is a highly flawed guy, we're conflicted because of 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.560 the simple engaging thought about the Democrats themselves. Are we 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:01.120 really going to let them get away with exploiting our 0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:04.160 unease with Trump, using our doubts and manipulating our angs 0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:08.200 to validate retrospectively the damage they've wrought in the past 0:05:08.279 --> 0:05:11.280 four years, and to approve proactively what they might do 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:15.960 in the next four. He goes on their deceitfully vacuous campaign. 0:05:16.080 --> 0:05:18.160 It's invitation to sign up to a blank slate, on 0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:20.920 their plans for another term, and collective amnesia about their 0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.960 work in the current one. Their empty pantsuit of a candidate, 0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:29.040 incessantly blurting inanities into the media, void incapable of articulating 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:32.320 a single substantive idea for governing. What they amount to 0:05:32.440 --> 0:05:35.560 is nothing less than an abuse of voter scruples, an 0:05:35.600 --> 0:05:38.760 exploitation of the yearning many have for a hint of normalcy. 0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:44.480 So yes, without the Democrats, Trump couldn't exist, or couldn't 0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:47.760 exist with any strength whatsoever. So I think is a 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:49.960 good point for those of us who are Trump hesitant 0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:54.760 but agast at the progressives. As watching kamlo Is interviewed 0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:56.840 by Nora O'Donnell on CBS News, I think we have 0:05:56.880 --> 0:06:00.560 clips of it we'll play later. But man, she will 0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:04.600 not answer a question, will not or cannot Nora o' 0:06:04.640 --> 0:06:06.520 donald really tried to nail her down on the whole 0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:10.560 abortion thing. But what restrictions are you in favor of 0:06:11.000 --> 0:06:15.200 because that's something she hasn't outlined in the past. Anything 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:17.360 she's ever said about it leads you to believe she's 0:06:17.360 --> 0:06:20.440 okay with abortion, you know, up tilly whatever you always 0:06:20.480 --> 0:06:24.800 say up to kindergarten, which is horrific. But she would not, 0:06:25.040 --> 0:06:26.880 she would just would not answer the question. Nor A 0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:30.320 Donald asks several times, and Kamala Harris says, I already 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:33.440 told you, and just stares at her, and there's like 0:06:33.520 --> 0:06:35.520 a silence between them for a while as nor A 0:06:35.560 --> 0:06:37.160 Donald looks at her and Jay look at each other, 0:06:37.560 --> 0:06:38.799 and nor A Donald moves. 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.680 On, Actually you did if you told me? This is weird? 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:44.680 Yeah, you know. 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.600 He got a nice note from Doug from Boston with 0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:48.960 a bit of analysis the election, that sort of thing. 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:50.680 One point in particular leaves out. 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:52.760 He says, I think the reason Kamalin never gives any 0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:54.960 direct policy answers is because the party is such a 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:58.760 loose coalition of strange bedfellows that and she's barely holding 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.360 onto a tie. She can't or to alienate anyone faction 0:07:01.520 --> 0:07:05.240 by giving any concrete answers. That's the same reason jd Vance, 0:07:05.279 --> 0:07:09.760 for instance, is so soft on the anti Ukraine. Putin's 0:07:09.800 --> 0:07:13.440 a hero wackad do wing of right wing America. He 0:07:13.560 --> 0:07:15.760 needs to hold on to them. Yeah, to be fair, Yeah, 0:07:15.960 --> 0:07:19.680 that'd be a perfect mirror image of the same sort 0:07:19.720 --> 0:07:19.960 of thing. 0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:20.840 When JD. 0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:22.960 Vance was asked over the weekend, Jady Vance goes on 0:07:23.120 --> 0:07:26.440 every show because he is very comfortable answering tough questions. 0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:30.640 But ask his enemy, is Russia an enemy or ally 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:34.160 of the United States? He would not say enemy. That's 0:07:34.200 --> 0:07:35.640 not the right way to look at it. We have 0:07:35.760 --> 0:07:37.640 many countries in the world we do business with and 0:07:37.720 --> 0:07:39.800 different guys, and I thought, really, you can't just say 0:07:39.880 --> 0:07:41.400 Russia an enemy the United States. 0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:43.920 But for the reasons you just. 0:07:43.920 --> 0:07:47.160 Said, yeah, and his point of view is, hey, look 0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:51.119 we're gonna pursue a new relationship. I actually a pretty 0:07:51.160 --> 0:07:53.960 ridiculous to not say Russia's an enemy of the United States. 0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.040 I would agree it's there's no reason not to, although 0:07:58.080 --> 0:08:02.160 I'm reminded of Joe Biden being tempted into calling Saudi 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:06.120 Arabia pariah state. It's just a dumb move. Don't play 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.920 your cards until you have to play them, is my opinion. 0:08:08.960 --> 0:08:11.600 In foreign policy. Anyway, I wanted to move on to this. 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.960 It's a Rich Lowry, who's absolutely terrific editor in chief 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:19.200 of the National Review. He's positing that we've and this 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.200 is a question we've asked several times, that we've passed 0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.960 the peak of woke politics. 0:08:23.520 --> 0:08:24.280 In the US. 0:08:25.520 --> 0:08:29.960 And he makes this point through pointing out that Kamala 0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:35.240 has like disavowed all of her ideas that she touted. 0:08:35.760 --> 0:08:37.040 And you know, I could do the list. Do we 0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:39.720 have to defund the police? Oh no, no, no, abolish ice? 0:08:39.800 --> 0:08:42.320 Oh I don't believe in that, Dee, I never heard 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:44.720 of it. Medicare for all that was three years ago, 0:08:44.880 --> 0:08:48.839 Green New Deal. Let's not get carried away. Allow the 0:08:48.960 --> 0:08:50.960 ad that they're running around the country. I don't see 0:08:51.000 --> 0:08:53.280 ads because I'm in California. There's no point in run ends. 0:08:53.320 --> 0:08:55.439 But the ad that's getting the most attraction, according to 0:08:55.440 --> 0:09:00.720 stuff I read, the Trump ad is the tax sex 0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:03.839 changes for criminals, the criminal illegals. 0:09:04.160 --> 0:09:07.280 I mean, that's just. And she says, I will follow 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:09.880 the law. I will follow. But do you think that's 0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.480 a good idea. I will follow the law. All right? Yeah. 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.520 That is the number one Trump ad right now in 0:09:15.640 --> 0:09:17.800 terms of a number of times shrun and the positive 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:19.400 response focus groups, blah blah blah. 0:09:19.440 --> 0:09:20.640 And I've seen it a couple of times. 0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:23.120 And what makes it so good is that it has 0:09:23.280 --> 0:09:26.640 Kamala in her own words, and then Charlemagne the God 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:32.040 and his sidekick saying taxpayer dollars for sex changes for inmates. 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:36.760 I'm not down with that. Kamala Harris is for they them, 0:09:37.200 --> 0:09:38.480 Donald Trump is for you. 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:43.120 And again, whoever made the point that it's not that 0:09:43.240 --> 0:09:45.959 specific issue, because it's not gonna happen a lot, and 0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:47.839 it would be a drop in a bucket of money. 0:09:48.480 --> 0:09:51.719 It just shows how crazy you are. It shows you 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:55.559 to be insane. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah ah. 0:09:55.880 --> 0:09:58.120 And then Rich Lowry goes on and this is the 0:09:58.160 --> 0:10:00.760 point I really wanted to get to, and I he's right, 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:05.640 But well, I'll just read it that Harris now feels 0:10:05.640 --> 0:10:08.079 compelled to disavow so many of the ideas that she 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:11.760 once embraced. This powerful testament to their political toxicity. An 0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:15.160 idea has won or lost in American politics when both 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:18.280 parties favor or oppose it, or simply don't want to 0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:22.520 fight over it anymore. Ronald Reagan's economics truly prevailed when 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:25.440 the Democratic Party, via Bill Clinton in the early nineties 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.360 accepted his basic approach. 0:10:27.679 --> 0:10:30.920 The era of big government is over gay. 0:10:30.840 --> 0:10:34.439 Marriage one politically, when Republicans decided to stop talking about 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.720 the issue. By this standard, woke attitudes and policies are 0:10:37.760 --> 0:10:42.040 in marked decline. And Kamala Harris's exhibit A. That's a 0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:46.000 good point and a win for us. I don't think 0:10:46.160 --> 0:10:49.040 he's somewhere between right and wrong. And the reason I 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:51.760 say that is they still have full capture of so 0:10:52.040 --> 0:10:56.520 many of the centers of communication in our society, specifically 0:10:56.600 --> 0:10:59.840 the media and academia, which is different than those other 0:11:00.000 --> 0:11:03.040 things in a lot of ways. And also, don't forget friends, 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:08.239 from the time of Lenin and Marx to today, Marxism 0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:13.319 is one hundred percent comfortable with deception. They will absolutely 0:11:13.440 --> 0:11:15.360 tell you, oh, we're not in favor of defunding the 0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.760 police because they know it's not popular enough. Then the 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:20.319 moment they get powered, they will defund the police. So 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:23.240 I'm not sure Rich is right, but it's an encouraging sign. 0:11:23.920 --> 0:11:27.000 And then, as usual, I've rambled on long enough that 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:28.760 I didn't get to the main thing I really wanted 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:32.520 to get to, and that is an obgyn in Texas 0:11:32.960 --> 0:11:35.880 who's been practicing for over thirty years, delivered to over 0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:40.880 five thousand babies. And she says these stories about after 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.720 Texas enacted pro life laws, women are dying because they're 0:11:44.760 --> 0:11:48.240 being or dying because they're being denied emergency medical care 0:11:48.440 --> 0:11:51.720 and for miscarriages, or they took the abortion drug. She said, 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.760 it's not true. It's not true at all. I care 0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:59.840 for these women all the time, and nobody's been denied care. 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:03.280 For three minutes. It's a fantasy, she said. 0:12:03.360 --> 0:12:07.920 The only women who are getting hurt are women who 0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.920 have become so convinced by the Harris campaigns. 0:12:11.400 --> 0:12:14.520 Rhetoric that they can't get care. Wow. 0:12:15.400 --> 0:12:18.560 The doctors are two of them to a man and woman, saying, 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.080 come will take care of you, one hundred percent. There's 0:12:21.240 --> 0:12:23.439 no problem here, Come will take care of you. And 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:26.920 the campaign's saying, don't even go because they will let 0:12:27.040 --> 0:12:29.800 you die. Well, and then that poor woman in Georgia 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:33.640 who died who they regularly mention and Liz Cheney mentioned 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:34.600 on stage the other day. 0:12:34.600 --> 0:12:36.679 I thought, Liz Cheney, you gotta be kidding me. 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:40.719 So that woman who died in Georgia of sepsis unrelated 0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:42.600 to this as well. 0:12:42.760 --> 0:12:44.120 Documented according to. 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:48.199 Her own lawyer, who's suing to try to get money, 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:52.079 it's amazing. So to me, that says, if that's the 0:12:52.200 --> 0:12:55.240 best example, you've got one that's not a good example, 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:57.520 then it must not happen very often, because if you 0:12:57.600 --> 0:13:00.120 had a clear cut good example, I assume you'd be 0:13:00.240 --> 0:13:00.520 using it. 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:05.240 So which side really cares about women? That's a good one. 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:10.800 Hezbollah has a new leader. I think they're oh boy, 0:13:10.920 --> 0:13:11.480 I think they're all. 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:13.400 State Agent just called and said, we need to talk 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:15.240 to you about your life insurance premiums. 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:20.199 They're going up. We've got a bunch more news on 0:13:20.280 --> 0:13:21.080 the way. Stay with us. 0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:28.839 Swinging in a ball driven right field, way back, and 0:13:29.280 --> 0:13:33.280 forget it, it's gone. Freddie Freeman has homer for the 0:13:33.520 --> 0:13:37.240 third straight game in this World Series and now five 0:13:37.520 --> 0:13:42.480 consecutive World Series games. Freeman does the job at two 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.280 run homer and the Dodgers strike first with what else 0:13:46.600 --> 0:13:47.320 the long ball? 0:13:47.720 --> 0:13:49.800 Dodgers win. They're up three to zero in the World Series. 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.439 Freddie Freeman has hit a home run in five straight 0:13:52.520 --> 0:13:55.480 World Series games, which ties the record held by a 0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:58.520 guy who played for the Astros who was probably getting signals. 0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:00.360 So right there, you go. 0:14:00.520 --> 0:14:03.160 Yeah, Freeman's been a monster. Hey, we add an email 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:06.200 asking did you do what you threaten to do, which 0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:08.000 is by and where a Dodger's hat? 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:08.480 Now, I did not. 0:14:08.559 --> 0:14:10.839 I never go on the winning I did not get 0:14:10.840 --> 0:14:14.680 around to it. That's just science, folks, that's cause and effect. 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:16.480 I could go out and buy one and you'd have 0:14:16.600 --> 0:14:20.720 the very first ever World Series three oh collapse, yep, 0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:21.680 if you want that. 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:26.280 So, uh, didn't Boston come back from three to zero? 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:29.040 That was in the Division Series. It's never happened in 0:14:29.080 --> 0:14:33.280 a World Series, League championship, League championship. Yeah, they came 0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.520 back on the Yankees, Boston a right of course. Yeah, 0:14:36.640 --> 0:14:40.440 both American League teams. Yeah, Uh, that was I gonna say. 0:14:40.480 --> 0:14:43.400 Oh, So, I was kind of excited about the AI 0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:45.960 that Apple Phone was going to have, just because I 0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:48.120 want to start messing around with AI and it's got to. 0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:49.440 Be super easy for me to use and I do 0:14:49.520 --> 0:14:52.840 everything on my phone. But it's getting pretty tepid reviews 0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:57.200 unfortunately so far. I assume it will improve, but you 0:14:57.320 --> 0:14:57.640 never know. 0:14:57.880 --> 0:15:00.480 But here's a little AI chat gb he sort of 0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:02.240 story here from CNN yesterday. 0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:05.480 We're seeing the rise of empathetic AI. This is artificial intelligence. 0:15:05.520 --> 0:15:07.640 It's different from just chat GPT where you're trying to 0:15:07.640 --> 0:15:09.680 get it to help you with creative writing or tasks. 0:15:10.200 --> 0:15:14.000 This is artificial intelligence that is actually created to feel 0:15:14.120 --> 0:15:17.800 human and personable and character AI is an interesting platform 0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.520 because it's actually a two way immersive experience where you 0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:23.760 build these characters, or you can have a character that 0:15:23.840 --> 0:15:26.080 you know, and you begin to actually feel like you're 0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.320 living within a story. And they build this AI fan 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.440 fiction platform. So this isn't just normal AI that we're 0:15:31.480 --> 0:15:34.840 hearing about. This is the rise of empathetic intelligence, and 0:15:35.000 --> 0:15:37.320 this company has been at the forefront of it. 0:15:38.480 --> 0:15:40.800 So empathetic AI. 0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:46.520 And then there's an example of well that's pretty long, 0:15:46.560 --> 0:15:48.560 but it's a fourteen year old boy who's driven to 0:15:50.000 --> 0:15:52.920 suicide by this. I got to believe the kid was 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:57.680 struggling before this came along, but yeah, but if you've 0:15:57.960 --> 0:16:02.040 followed the story, it's extremely troubling. Yeah, so the role 0:16:02.160 --> 0:16:05.560 that this platform played you what do you what do 0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.400 you think you think this is going to become a thing, 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:11.480 like a common thing where people feel like they're friends 0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:16.080 with and lovers one hundred percent it's already happening. Yeah, 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:19.280 and it'll spread like crazy, and the birth rate will 0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:22.720 continue to decline between this and pornography. 0:16:23.600 --> 0:16:25.800 Wow. Man, sorry to be the bear of bad news, 0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:27.880 but I mean, that's that's as clear as it can 0:16:27.920 --> 0:16:28.240 be to me. 0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:30.880 It's pretty easy for me to be quite judgmental about this. Like, 0:16:30.920 --> 0:16:33.000 I feel like you got to be a certain sort 0:16:33.080 --> 0:16:36.400 of sad person for this to happen. 0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:37.960 But I don't know. I haven't, I haven't done it. 0:16:38.080 --> 0:16:41.800 Maybe that first time you come home and you realize 0:16:41.920 --> 0:16:44.480 you're talking to your chat bot because they make you 0:16:44.600 --> 0:16:46.360 feel better, you realize, holy crap. 0:16:46.960 --> 0:16:49.200 Yeah, it's sad and it's pathetic if it's an adult. 0:16:49.360 --> 0:16:52.040 But like I always say about indoctrination, the reason they 0:16:52.080 --> 0:16:54.240 go after the kids is because it works. It's fairly 0:16:54.320 --> 0:16:56.880 easy to do. And if you're a child or an 0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.280 adolescent who's not known the normal way to deal with 0:17:00.400 --> 0:17:06.480 this stuff, having a online porn enhanced quote unquote relationship 0:17:06.560 --> 0:17:08.840 doesn't seem that odd, do you. 0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:10.720 Wow, I gotta look, it's sick. 0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:12.480 I gotta keep an eye on my kids having some 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:14.920 sort of chat bought friend that's made them feel. 0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:16.919 Good, Armstrong and getty. 0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:21.080 The new reports found that Americans are changing their vacation 0:17:21.280 --> 0:17:24.840 plans due to election anxiety. Yep, people are waiting till 0:17:24.880 --> 0:17:26.880 after the election so they know whether by a round 0:17:26.920 --> 0:17:33.840 trip or one way. Wow, okay, smiley, amusing, but some 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:34.560 people mean it. 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:38.200 I saw a thing yesterday was uh, and this person 0:17:38.320 --> 0:17:40.760 was completely serious. They're making a list of things that 0:17:40.840 --> 0:17:44.119 they're grateful for should Trump win, to remind them that 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:45.720 life is still you know, good. 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:48.720 God, dang it. I can't imagine being that wrapped up 0:17:48.760 --> 0:17:51.639 and who gets elected president? I I care a lot. 0:17:51.680 --> 0:17:53.399 I think it makes a big difference, but I'm not gonna. 0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:58.960 I don't need like therapy to survive it. Yeah, I 0:17:59.040 --> 0:18:02.720 wish the most and wise among us. Could you know, 0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:06.480 issue forth some book or editorial or something or other 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:09.840 explaining how I guess they already have. 0:18:10.440 --> 0:18:11.800 But how is it. 0:18:12.040 --> 0:18:17.640 Everybody like equates their own soul their reason for being 0:18:18.240 --> 0:18:21.920 with a political candidate. But the hell is that, I 0:18:22.200 --> 0:18:25.520 don't know other than unhealthy as can be. I was 0:18:25.560 --> 0:18:28.440 thinking about this the other day. We've talked many times 0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:31.560 about how human beings clearly have a tendency toward wanting 0:18:31.600 --> 0:18:34.800 a king, like putting all their faith in a human 0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.639 and that's got to be an evolutionary thing that the 0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.399 tribes that survived were the ones that all rallied around 0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:44.960 a leader, as opposed to I'm not with him, I'm 0:18:45.000 --> 0:18:46.280 not with them. Some of us are with them, some 0:18:46.400 --> 0:18:49.240 of us are not. Got defeated by the next door 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:52.360 village where they all believe they'd stuck with the guy 0:18:52.440 --> 0:18:55.720 no matter what. Yeah, it's helpful to look at human 0:18:55.840 --> 0:18:59.520 history as a long timeline because democracy has been around 0:18:59.600 --> 0:19:01.359 for as long as golf shoes. 0:19:01.640 --> 0:19:05.080 I mean, it's like it's a completely new thing. 0:19:06.000 --> 0:19:09.320 So, yeah, our tendency is toward the strong leader who 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:11.280 will defeat our enemy. So you pick somebody, you go 0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:13.440 with him, and then in your mind you justify being 0:19:13.520 --> 0:19:17.400 behind this person no matter what. So your village, everybody 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:19.880 fights and fights hard because it matters for our guy, 0:19:20.560 --> 0:19:25.400 even with his claws. Or even then, if I'm skinning 0:19:25.480 --> 0:19:27.240 a deer, I'm thinking about skinning a deer. 0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.120 Non who's going to be the new tribal chief. 0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:31.960 Then if I'm tending my crops or cleaning out my hut, 0:19:32.080 --> 0:19:36.080 I'm not obsessed with it round the clock anyway. How 0:19:36.200 --> 0:19:39.040 A book from nineteen seventy explains the current election. I 0:19:39.080 --> 0:19:42.080 thought this was very interesting. After this, I vowed to 0:19:42.160 --> 0:19:44.600 reset this and hadn't gotten to it because everything's so 0:19:44.720 --> 0:19:48.920 crazy busy right now. But that story The New York Times, 0:19:48.960 --> 0:19:52.399 which has been pretty brave on the whole abusing and 0:19:52.520 --> 0:19:56.800 torturing children in the name of transgender ideology, they've been 0:19:56.840 --> 0:20:00.200 pretty brave about reporting some stuff, and I I think 0:20:00.200 --> 0:20:03.040 it was last week I brought up that a big 0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:06.720 transgender scientist lady had gotten ten million dollars to do 0:20:06.840 --> 0:20:11.360 a study through the NIH on whether the hormone treatments 0:20:11.400 --> 0:20:15.000 and puberty blockers were actually helping the adolescent kids. Well, 0:20:15.160 --> 0:20:19.399 the study came out with a resounding no, absolutely not. 0:20:20.480 --> 0:20:23.040 But then the doctor has declined to publish it out 0:20:23.080 --> 0:20:26.720 of fear that opponents of this garbage will use it 0:20:26.800 --> 0:20:29.119 for their own ends. And I quote, I do not 0:20:29.280 --> 0:20:31.200 want our work to be weaponized. It has to be 0:20:31.320 --> 0:20:33.760 exactly on point, clear and concise, and that takes time, 0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:36.640 fair enough. But if it had found the puberty blockers 0:20:36.760 --> 0:20:39.639 do help the kids, would the study still be unpublished? 0:20:40.000 --> 0:20:40.600 I think not. 0:20:42.320 --> 0:20:46.119 Anyway, this is a setup to the fabulous JK. Rowling 0:20:46.359 --> 0:20:49.480 speaking of moral courage. She's got more money than God, 0:20:49.560 --> 0:20:53.240 but still she is really risked a lot all the 0:20:53.359 --> 0:20:54.919 anti Christian wizard books. 0:20:56.040 --> 0:20:58.840 Wow Wow. Putting that aside for a moment, here's what 0:20:58.960 --> 0:20:59.320 she said. 0:21:00.080 --> 0:21:03.240 Or if you don't know that, we must not publish 0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:06.320 a study that says we're harming children because people who 0:21:06.400 --> 0:21:09.360 say we're harming children will use the study as evidence 0:21:09.440 --> 0:21:12.119
