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

00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:12,520
Speaker 1: and He.

4
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:25,799
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Yeddy. So breaking news story. I have no

5
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: idea why this has happened and.

6
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:32,839
Speaker 1: Illinois court has overturned Jesse Smolette's conviction. What I have

7
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: no idea why? It must be some technicality. What a

8
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: what a moron?

9
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:44,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, kidding that whole He is the clown prince

10
00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:48,120
Speaker 3: of a whole period of American history that's not over yet,

11
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:50,520
Speaker 3: which we're going to get to in a moment or two.

12
00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: But I think it's on the wayne.

13
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,959
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, yeah, And I do want to get

14
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:56,360
Speaker 4: into that.

15
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 3: University of California Davis named the most anti smit A

16
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 3: campus in America, which I mean, come on, you look

17
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:06,959
Speaker 3: at Columbia, you look at Harvard. That's some true division

18
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 3: one bigotry you've got going on there at UC Davis.

19
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 1: Way to go at UCLA, they weren't allowing Jewish kids

20
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: to go.

21
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,880
Speaker 4: To class, right, How do you outdo that?

22
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:15,399
Speaker 1: Right?

23
00:01:15,440 --> 00:01:15,720
Speaker 4: Again?

24
00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 3: I mean, that is some world class bigotry. Fantastic, he

25
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 3: says sarcastically. Obviously, in case you're a moron. Coming up

26
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 3: a troubling headline on a number of different levels. Escaped

27
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:35,680
Speaker 3: primates open can of worms for South Carolina's Alpha Genesis

28
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 3: Research Lab. Will the judges permit that headline?

29
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:46,400
Speaker 1: No? Because it makes me wonder is that a euphemism metaphor?

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: Or are they actually opening cans of worms? And that's

31
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: a great step forward for monkeys?

32
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, plus just one animal metaphor describing another animal incident.

33
00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:01,240
Speaker 1: I just you know, escaped lion is the elephant in

34
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 1: the room.

35
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 3: I don't know. No, No, we won't have that also

36
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 3: coming up, and I find this so interesting. People are

37
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 3: risking their eyeballs to get different colored eyes.

38
00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: That dumb.

39
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,079
Speaker 4: They don't like their eye.

40
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 1: Color, that's dumb. I've got some interesting stats on eye

41
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 1: color that I think will make it clearly dumb.

42
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 5: But first, gender bending madness.

43
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 6: I'm I'm unfortunately stuck on the last thing. Are baboons

44
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 6: fishing for a compliment by showing their red heinees?

45
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 4: Right right?

46
00:02:51,480 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 1: Too many animal met It's confusing. Yes, hungry lion in

47
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: the room. That's pretty for me.

48
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 3: So i'd want to get to this story I'm about

49
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 3: to describe in full but we don't really have time

50
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 3: to segment. But it's about this college kid who held

51
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: a a what would you call it, a panel discussion

52
00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 3: about protecting women's sports, in other words, only having girls

53
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 3: playing girls' sports and not dudes who are confused and

54
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 3: claim they're women. And one of the accounts of because

55
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 3: it melted down, it went sideways, this panel discussion, and

56
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 3: one of the things that happened was one of the

57
00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 3: law professors, a dude ran to the stage and was

58
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 3: screaming with eyes wide and wild and spit flying.

59
00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 7: Trans girls are girls, trades, girls are girls at this

60
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 7: law student. This is one of his professors. Number one,

61
00:03:56,120 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 7: these people are nuts. Number two.

62
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 3: You're a cultist, okay, radical gender theory, trans theory, Okay,

63
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: you're down with it. But if you like, are so

64
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 3: committed to the idea of I say, I'm a girl.

65
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 3: I got no fallopian tubes, I got X Y chromosomes,

66
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: I have the package, the male package, no extra charge,

67
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 3: I produce sperm. But I'm a woman. There's something wrong

68
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 3: with you.

69
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: You're not well. They're getting that angry about it. Even

70
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: if you believe that is that I'm fully.

71
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 3: Right, acting as though there is no argument to be

72
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 3: made otherwise. Yeah, and anybody who does is merely a

73
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 3: crazy person. I'm really into this whole. It's their religion

74
00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 3: thing that we're built.

75
00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:49,039
Speaker 1: We're built to protect a certain worldview, you know, with

76
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:54,559
Speaker 1: our lives because we evolutionary wise feel like it's key

77
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 1: to a surviving as a species. And that's how you

78
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 1: get the crusades or people willing to die for the

79
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: religion or whatever. These people are willing to die for

80
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: the religion of trans and that's how they get so

81
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: incredibly worked up right as opposed to being a policy

82
00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 1: decision right exactly.

83
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's absolutely correct. It is a cult

84
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 3: or a quasi religion and troubling. But the reason I

85
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: pointed that out is that guy going so nuts. Is

86
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,160
Speaker 3: there a number of headlines from around the country that

87
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 3: you just will not hear in the mass media unless

88
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 3: it's derisive judgment. The Ohio Senate just passed the bill

89
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:38,640
Speaker 3: banning dudes in women's restrooms. Call them transgender people if

90
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 3: you want. The problem is their dudes. Call things what

91
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:46,840
Speaker 3: they are. Don't be forced to use weird experimental phrases

92
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 3: just because the far left wants you to. So did

93
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 3: you hear that the Ohio Senate said, yeah, no, women's

94
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 3: spaces are for women.

95
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:56,839
Speaker 4: Then you have this story.

96
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 3: School board in Wisconsin, radical far right Wisconsin crack down

97
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 3: on boys and girls' bathroom in a big change vote.

98
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 3: They had a huge turnout at the school board meeting Riverside.

99
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, what's the district name. Well, it's not like

100
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: it's Watertown Unified school board. And the school board voted

101
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,800
Speaker 3: eight to one in favor of Plan C, which only

102
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 3: permits students to use bathrooms and locker rooms and play

103
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,960
Speaker 3: on sports teams aligned with their There is biological sex.

104
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 3: That's the only kind of sex. There is biological sex.

105
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,479
Speaker 3: So you don't need to see say biological it's redundant

106
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 3: and it just exists. So the activists can make you

107
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:40,760
Speaker 3: admit that there are different kinds of sex. Are saying

108
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:46,039
Speaker 3: edible food, right, Yeah, exactly, Yeah, good point. So anyway, Yeah,

109
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 3: overwhelming overwhelming sentiment to the people of the town in

110
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 3: the school board that no, no more dudes in girls' spaces.

111
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 4: So that's happening.

112
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 3: Mike Johnson, Speaker of the House, is said no, you're

113
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 3: not going to have dudes in the women's bathrooms.

114
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:00,719
Speaker 1: That the Capital either.

115
00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 3: Oh really, in spite of the fact that a quote

116
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:08,960
Speaker 3: unquote transgender woman has been elected to the House o Representatives.

117
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,400
Speaker 1: I thought they'd dodge this problem just by going gender

118
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 1: neutral bathrooms, so everybody can use every bathroom and then

119
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: you know, that's that's what they do it every restaurant

120
00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: and coffee shop around here.

121
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,480
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, yeah. I think what they'll probably do is

122
00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,040
Speaker 3: the third option. The airport strategy is you have a

123
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 3: non gendered bathroom. I suspect that they'll do that at

124
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 3: the Capitol. They'll have like one or two little rooms

125
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 3: at taxpair expence with as turlet and ass sink that

126
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 3: the gender bending congress person can use. So well, I'm

127
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 3: not sure that'll provoke some controversy, but we'll see.

128
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: The turnouts on those votes. Interesting and fits in with

129
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: this opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal today that

130
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I was going to get to later. Shy conservatives are

131
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: key the left in its bubble, and I think that's true.

132
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: I think so many of us have been scared off

133
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 1: by thinking there's way more people in favor a lot

134
00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:13,559
Speaker 1: of these things. We just keep our mouths shut and

135
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,679
Speaker 1: the just to avoid the you know, having to argue

136
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: with someone. And what that has caused is the people

137
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: who do believe in pronouns or whatever all these other

138
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 1: things are, they think there's way more of them than

139
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 1: there are because we all keep our mouth shut.

140
00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's part of my continually bellowing cut the

141
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 3: crap lately, is that that's exactly what I'm talking about.

142
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:43,800
Speaker 3: You're right, friends, in your attitudes about a couple of things.

143
00:08:43,800 --> 00:08:46,400
Speaker 3: I'm about to mention, you're absolutely right. Not only that,

144
00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 3: but you're backed by the vast majority of the American people.

145
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 3: Being in the majority doesn't make you right, but you

146
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 3: happen to be the right and in the majority. And

147
00:08:55,840 --> 00:09:01,880
Speaker 3: you've been bullied into silence over the idea that people

148
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,760
Speaker 3: who sneak into the country illegally should be showered with

149
00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 3: all the rights and benefits of a citizen. And it's

150
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 3: immoral if you say, wait a minute, the idea that

151
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 3: we should crush our economy in the name of greens

152
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 3: something or other. The idea that, after a century and

153
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 3: a half of busting our asses to make this the

154
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:22,040
Speaker 3: least country in the least racist country in the world,

155
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 3: all of a sudden, we're supposed to accept that, Oh

156
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 3: it was founded on racism, and there's more racist than ever. Yeah,

157
00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 3: cut the crap, bull ass, the idea that children should

158
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 3: be mutilated and can choose their own quote unquote gender.

159
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 4: Cut the crap. It's crap, it's crap, that's right.

160
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:42,599
Speaker 3: But yeah, back to your point in the journal's point.

161
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,679
Speaker 3: So I'm reminded of your story about an academic friend

162
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,840
Speaker 3: who was a gas Well. Couldn't believe that people in

163
00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 3: private enterprise don't always use their pronouns in their emails.

164
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, nobody does. We're discussing the whole You sign off

165
00:09:56,559 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: on your email with your name and you put he

166
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: hamm or she heard whatever. And I said, who does that?

167
00:10:02,679 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: And they said who doesn't do that? I said, really, said,

168
00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 1: doesn't everybody put the brons? And I said, basically nobody.

169
00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,240
Speaker 1: I don't think I've ever seen it out outside of

170
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 1: something from a university. So they had no idea. They're

171
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,840
Speaker 1: in the bubble because we don't speak up. You know.

172
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 1: It's like with the the horrible ratings they're having on

173
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: MSNBC right now and Joe and Mika feeling like they

174
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: needed to go visit Trump to save their show or something.

175
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 1: Is how bubbled all the viewers of MSNBC have been

176
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 1: for the last couple of years. You don't know about

177
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: all these stories. You have no idea that the rest

178
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 1: of the country thinks a lot of this stuff is nuts,

179
00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 1: or how bad the immigration problem is, or how much

180
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: people are hating inflation. You don't know all that stuff

181
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:51,200
Speaker 1: because they weren't covering it on your favorite news channel.

182
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:54,200
Speaker 1: It did you a disservice by keeping you in a

183
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: bubble so that you're shocked when Trump wins so easily

184
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 1: in a landslide, right exactly, so you attribute it to

185
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,679
Speaker 1: racism or fascism. What I wouldn't want the reality of

186
00:11:09,120 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 1: stories kept from me so that a presidential election comes

187
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,440
Speaker 1: along and the other side wins easily and I'm like,

188
00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:18,840
Speaker 1: how did that happen? Everything I hear is the opposite.

189
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: That doesn't do me any good.

190
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,720
Speaker 3: Or you're running around spouting idiotic opinions. That's not a

191
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 3: good look, not to be desired. Speaking of opinions, speaker

192
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,880
Speaker 3: Johnson was asked the key question and he dodged it.

193
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 4: And I think I know why.

194
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,319
Speaker 3: I will talk about that after a quick word from

195
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,960
Speaker 3: our friends at Omaha Steaks. Oh, I know this is

196
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:40,520
Speaker 3: going to sound so familiar. I know to a lot

197
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:42,720
Speaker 3: of you. I've struggled so long. What do I get

198
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 3: you know, my dad now that my mom has passed?

199
00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 3: But what do I get them? They don't need stuff?

200
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,360
Speaker 3: Omaha Steaks. It's the perfect gift. And they have all

201
00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 3: sorts of different packages, but what characterizes them? And Judy

202
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 3: and I had the filetman Schongs the other night, ma'am.

203
00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 3: If I ordered it and paid through the nose at

204
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 3: a restaurant, I would have been thrilled with equality.

205
00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 1: I kid you not. Yeah, And I'm horrible at grilling,

206
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 1: as you all know, with my tiny little stupid grill.

207
00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:09,800
Speaker 1: Even with my grilling, those steaks are like the best

208
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: steak you have at a restaurant. And they do such

209
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: a good job of shipping it to you at the

210
00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,240
Speaker 1: dry ice and everything like that. And now whoever you

211
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,439
Speaker 1: send it to Dad and your grandma and grapple or whatever,

212

Speaker 1: now they're gonna have all this great meat in their

213
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:21,000

225
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,800
Speaker 3: I should have gotten the audio, but speaker Johnson was asked,

226
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 3: is freshman elect Sarah McBride a man or a woman?

227
00:12:57,480 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 1: Oh? Really?

228
00:12:58,840 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 4: In an effort to trap it.

229
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,680
Speaker 3: Now, if you ask me, I'd say it's a man,

230
00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,600
Speaker 3: because that's easy for uh.

231
00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 4: And I love this this quote.

232
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,440
Speaker 3: Up until about fifteen minutes ago, for the entire history

233
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:15,559
Speaker 3: of mankind, every single person on earth could have answered

234
00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 3: that question definitively and correctly. But all of a sudden,

235
00:13:19,920 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 3: we're like, I don't know what I'm subolished a sash.

236
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 3: He said, Look, I'm not going to get into this.

237
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 3: We treat all persons with dignity and respect. We will

238
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 3: I'm not going to engage in silly debates about this.

239
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:35,040
Speaker 3: There's a concern about use as a restroom facilities and

240
00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:35,760
Speaker 3: blah blah blah.

241
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: I understand your answer, but I also understand his answer

242
00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,520
Speaker 1: of just I'm not going to let you make this

243
00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,880
Speaker 1: into a story. I'm not going to energize the far left.

244
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got work to do. I think that's I

245
00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 3: wish she had said it's a man. I get why

246
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: he didn't. Yeah, at some point we all got to

247
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 3: find our balls. Pardon me enough to state that which

248
00:14:01,679 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 3: is clearly true. You can't be forced under your knees

249
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:06,920
Speaker 3: to say stuff you know is clearly not true.

250
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 4: It's bad for your soul.

251
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 1: So Joe's got his eye color thing. People are getting

252
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: operations to change their eca and good news on the

253
00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: four to one K front. Maybe you haven't heard about,

254
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: among other things on the way, Oh my god, have

255
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 1: you seen the new Jaguar ad campaign. Yes, Elon Musk

256
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: said this makes me want to sell my Jaguar and

257
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 1: I don't even own one. It may be the world

258
00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,720
Speaker 1: record for tone deaf, no kidding. How did you miss

259
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 1: the whole bud light story? Anyway? More on that later.

260
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Well, speaking of bad moves, there is a

261
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 3: twelve thousand dollars surgery to change your eye color that's

262
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 3: surging in popularity.

263
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 1: First of all, twelve thousand dollars. Even if it wasn't

264
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,360
Speaker 1: dangerous or painful, that seems crazy.

265
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 3: Well, in an exchange that is utterly predictable, doctor say

266
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,360
Speaker 3: it could be dangerous. Patients say it's worth the risks. Well,

267
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 3: that's obvious since they did it.

268
00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 4: But patient, they.

269
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 1: Say, that's worth the risk to you have a different

270
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 1: eye color. WHOA, won't that change your life?

271
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:13,240
Speaker 4: Yeah?

272
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:17,800
Speaker 3: I would suggest maybe I don't know the Bible or

273
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 3: like literally any philosophical texts text from any civilization that's

274
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:29,080
Speaker 3: ever been written, including like the Farmer's Almanac, and I

275
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 3: don't know, like a kid's book of knock Knock jokes.

276
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 4: I just I don't. I don't know.

277
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 3: Anyway, they start with this thirty nine year old real

278
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 3: estate agent, a dude who paid twelve grand to get

279
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 3: his brown eyes turned light gray.

280
00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 1: Hmmm, doctor, who brown is by far the most common

281
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 1: eye color in the world, by far, far and away.

282
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,280
Speaker 1: But if you ask women or men what's the most

283
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 1: attractive for women? They say gray number one, blue number two.

284
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: So this guy I wanted gray apparently he had seen

285
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 1: this list.

286
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, and one young man changed one of his brown

287
00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 3: eyes to blue to copy the eyes of his beloved

288
00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: Siberian husky.

289
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that doesn't make you weird at all.

290
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: So these doctors, and there aren't many who will do this,

291
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 3: use a laser to cut donut like tunnels into his cornias,

292
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 3: clear outtermost layer. Ah surgeon used a tool to widen

293
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 3: the tunnels before filling them with dye. Takes about a

294
00:16:26,960 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 3: half an hour.

295
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: Women prefer gray number one, followed by blue, then green.

296
00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: Men prefer green eyes in a girl, which is very uncommon.

297
00:16:39,400 --> 00:16:42,680
Speaker 1: Very few people have green eyes, followed by hazel, which

298
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 1: is kind of green also, So I guess we like

299
00:16:45,120 --> 00:16:46,160
Speaker 1: green eyes and girls.

300
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: I had beautiful hazel eyes as a child, Jack. They

301
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 3: were a brown and green kind of mixed, and they

302
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 3: turned brown as I aged. Only single digits of people

303
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,160
Speaker 3: have hazel eyes. It would have ingrediably change my life.

304
00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I think I'm much happier.

305
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 3: You'd be, Oh my god, I'd be a big star

306
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:10,119
Speaker 3: now loved anyway, it could blind you. So you know

307
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 3: what I've found? You know, whose eyes look beautiful? Whoever

308
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,200
Speaker 3: you're in love with? Yes, their eyes look beautiful.

309
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 1: Isn't that interesting? Always?

310
00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 4: Yeah?

311
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,360
Speaker 1: Doesn't matter what, It doesn't matter, the color doesn't matter,

312
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:24,760

320
00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:45,600

323
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the main takeaway is jeez, you think that

324
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 1: is going to give you the happiness? There a lot

325
00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 1: of other ways. Try try helping someone or praying or

326
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: doing something else.

327
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 3: Here's a chick who went twice to get aqua colored eyes.

328
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,959
Speaker 1: All right, what color your eyes, Katie? I've never stared

329
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,800
Speaker 1: that closely at you. They're blue green, they're mixed. There

330
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 1: you go. Yeah, good news for four one k users

331
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 1: are strong and getty. A bunch of different little news

332
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: nuggets for you. I find all interesting. I'll start with

333
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: this one because of teased a couple of times. The

334
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: irs is going to raise the four to one contribution limit,

335
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: I would freaking hope. So since we've all just lived

336
00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,280
Speaker 1: through about thirty percent inflation, obviously those old numbers would

337
00:18:35,320 --> 00:18:38,760
Speaker 1: be silly to stick to, right, right, And they didn't

338
00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 1: raise it enough to compensate for all that. But starting

339
00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:47,080
Speaker 1: next year, it'll be up to twenty three five that

340
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 1: you can put aside. And if you're over fifty, if

341
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: you're in the winter of your life, that stays at

342
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 1: seventy five hundred dollars. That's nuts. Given inflation, it's nuts

343
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:57,679
Speaker 1: to keep any of those numbers the same. It just

344
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:58,920
Speaker 1: a defies math.

345
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 3: I think late fall is good enough. I mean, you're

346
00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:03,720
Speaker 3: fifty one years old.

347
00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 1: It's not the winter of your in the winter of

348
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: your life, I am, you're fifty, you've got one foot

349
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 1: in the grave. I mean, it's just reality.

350
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:11,840
Speaker 4: Wow.

351
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 1: Wow, it's actually so the opposite. It's it's really interesting

352
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:16,119
Speaker 1: in the modern world.

353
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:19,200
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, anyway, Judy and I were just talking about

354
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 3: that the other day. It's amazing a seventy five year

355
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,800
Speaker 3: old when we were kids was like, whoo still hanging

356
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:24,000
Speaker 3: out that?

357
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: My mom talks about who is uh? In her eighties,

358
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: just when she was a kid, somebody in their mid

359
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:37,560
Speaker 1: sixties were they were done. They were done for a

360
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: couple of things for you here, let me find them all.

361
00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: I was going to do that. I'll do that later.

362
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 1: NBC might be getting rid of MSNBC because they don't

363
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,760
Speaker 1: like having that hanging around their neck. They feel like

364
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,560
Speaker 1: it's hurting them, and that's that's kind of an interesting development.

365
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 3: Might be the NBC News's main problem is they've got

366
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 3: NBC News hanging around their neck.

367
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:00,880
Speaker 4: There no treat either.

368
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: What is going to be the biggest easiest way to

369
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,480
Speaker 1: get rid of RFK Junior if Republican Senators has decided

370
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:09,960
Speaker 1: they want to get rid of him, it's going to

371
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: be the whole abortion thing when they alert I was

372
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,640
Speaker 1: just reading this a variety of Republican senators who are

373
00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:20,120
Speaker 1: pro life saying this is a huge concern. We'll get

374
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 1: to this in the hearing when they alert a lot

375
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:27,600
Speaker 1: of Republican voters to how RFK Junior is an extremist

376
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: on the side of abortion up to the day of birth. Yeah,

377
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 1: I think the bloom is going to be off the

378
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: rows on that. I think.

379
00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:36,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll say.

380
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 1: This is the most troubling story I've come across today.

381
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: This is from Reuters but being reported a number of places,

382
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 1: and for a lot of you who are anti forever

383
00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:52,919
Speaker 1: wars or any of the terms that y'all use that

384
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 1: make you less interventionist than me. You complain about the

385
00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 1: reduction in our stockpiles, which is a valid argument, especially today,

386
00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 1: Conflicts in Ukraine in the Middle East are eating away

387
00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 1: at US stockpiles of air defenses. The top US admiral

388
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 1: overseeing American forces in the Asia Pacific region said last night,

389
00:21:11,840 --> 00:21:14,320
Speaker 1: goes through some of the various weapons systems that you've

390
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,160
Speaker 1: either heard haven't and how are running law on them. Inherently,

391
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: it imposes costs on the readiness of America to respond

392
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,680
Speaker 1: to in the Indo Pacific region, which is the most

393
00:21:23,680 --> 00:21:28,399
Speaker 1: stressing theater for the quantity and quality of munitions, because

394
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 1: the PRC is the most capable potential adversary in the world.

395
00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,600
Speaker 1: In other words, we're more scared of China than anybody

396
00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: else in the world, and this is doing damage of

397
00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:40,160
Speaker 1: our ability to fight them. So something's got to be done.

398
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:43,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I can't verify this personally, but I read the

399
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:46,080
Speaker 3: other day in a worthy source that we could run

400
00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,520
Speaker 3: out of our anti aircraft missiles in two days in

401
00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 3: a major conflict. Speaking of forever wars, they are ain't

402
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 3: no wars that are only two days. So anyway, yeah,

403
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 3: that's a great concern, absolute dang it. And then you'll

404
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:04,560
Speaker 3: that makes perfect sense to me.

405
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: But then you've always got the problem with the Pentagon

406
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,000
Speaker 1: of if you can use any reason to increase your

407
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,120
Speaker 1: budget and then throw more money around, you use that.

408
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:17,480
Speaker 1: So it can be one hundred percent legit or eighty

409
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,440
Speaker 1: percent legit or twenty percent legit. It's always hard to know.

410
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 3: Right right, By the way, I have a clarification on

411
00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:29,160
Speaker 3: the Jesse Smollette situation from Mike the Chicago lawyer.

412
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:31,919
Speaker 1: Jesse Smollett, the actor most of us who had never

413
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: heard of, who claimed he was attacked by some guys

414
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,600
Speaker 1: in maga hats who poured bleach on him and said

415
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:40,640
Speaker 1: this is mega.

416
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:44,880
Speaker 3: Country three am in the South side of Chicago, which

417
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 3: was from the first moment you heard it.

418
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: But Kamala Harris, who was almost president, came to his

419
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,000
Speaker 1: defense immediately talked about the racism that occurs in America.

420
00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 3: Well, he was convicted of filing false complaints and all

421
00:22:57,640 --> 00:23:00,479
Speaker 3: sorts of different stuff, and that conviction was just over turned.

422
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 3: And Mike the lawyers qualified, has given us some information

423
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 3: on that. And now I'm going to keep it in

424
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 3: layman's terms because we lawyers and near lawyers use a

425
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:16,960
Speaker 3: lot of you know, jargon habeas corpus rid of circus maximus.

426
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:21,119
Speaker 3: I mean, there are all sorts of different terms. It

427
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 3: all goes back to the fact it's it's they cited

428
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 3: the Bill Cosby case where there was a plea agreement essentially,

429
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 3: and then the prosecutors changed their minds and went back again.

430
00:23:34,359 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 3: It goes to the fact that they entered into an

431
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,280
Speaker 3: agreement with Smole before they turned around and decided to

432
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:43,720
Speaker 3: prosecute him with something else, and it was a due

433
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 3: process violation, and Mike Lawyer agrees that it was. The

434
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:50,440
Speaker 3: problem was the horrible Cook County State's Attorney Kim Fox,

435
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 3: who entered into a horrible, indefensible agreement with him allowing

436
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 3: him to skate.

437
00:23:57,320 --> 00:23:59,360
Speaker 1: So this is one of those things that we dullards

438
00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 1: would call got off on a technicality, But the technicality

439
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,000
Speaker 1: is to strengthen our judicial system.

440
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the problem being this is the unholy fruit

441
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 3: of the poisoned tree of Kim Fox, who tried to

442
00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 3: skate around justice for one of her woke.

443
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,679
Speaker 4: Allies and screwed up the whole system.

444
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 3: I tell you what, people of Chicago, you want gonna

445
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,960
Speaker 3: hire a piece of garbage like her, You're gonna have

446
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:25,040
Speaker 3: garbage results.

447
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw the story that roughly

448
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: one hundred food Aid trucks, that's one of the reasons

449
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,640
Speaker 1: Benjamin Netanyah, who has gott an arrest warrant today from

450
00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,160
Speaker 1: whatever international court that is, And that's the lead story

451
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: for all of mainstream news. There's been an arrest warrant

452
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 1: put out for Benjamin Netanyah, who by the International Court

453
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: of we do nothing because of he's using starvation as

454
00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 1: a tool in genocide against the Palestinians. Well over the weekend,

455
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:59,399
Speaker 1: one hundred Food Aid trucks were robbed that were headed

456
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: into Gaza and so all the food was gone. And

457
00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 1: this is from this morning talking to a UN spokesperson

458
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,159
Speaker 1: journalist who looted the AID trucks. You and spokesman, we

459
00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,679
Speaker 1: don't know. Journalist. Are you trying to find out? You

460
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:16,520
Speaker 1: and spokesman know? And one of my favorite pundits said,

461
00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 1: in other words, the AID trucks were looted by Hamas,

462
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,840
Speaker 1: which is guaranteed the situation. Sure, so if you send

463
00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:28,439
Speaker 1: in food aid, Hammas steals it, which strengthens them, and

464
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,520
Speaker 1: that's the enemy you're at war with. If you don't

465
00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: send in food aid, you're accused of using hunger as

466
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,240
Speaker 1: a weapon and a genocide.

467
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,840
Speaker 3: So yeah, nice, Yeah, And they say, we're in a

468
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 3: thousand year war to exterminate the Jews and then the

469
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 3: Christians and take over the whole world in the name

470
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: of Allah. And if lots and lots of Palestinians starve

471
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: to death and die terribly, that will help our cause

472
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,960
Speaker 3: because that will fire up our fellow Muslims. So yeah,

473
00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 3: we're stealing the food aid and eating it ourselves in

474
00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 3: order to win the great battle. Why can people not

475
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:07,720
Speaker 3: just say that and understand that. They write it themselves

476
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:11,159
Speaker 3: Humas and similar groups, and they sign their names to it,

477
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 3: and they publish it in books, and they make speeches

478
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,520
Speaker 3: where they say these things. It's not like a quote

479
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,639
Speaker 3: unquote conspiracy theory. It's like a lot of the critical theory,

480
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 3: postmodernism stuff. They wrote books and signed their name to it.

481
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 3: They told you precisely what they're trying to do. I

482
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 3: don't know, lack of curiosity or just in the United States,

483
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:35,360
Speaker 3: just a terrified fear of being called a bigot.

484
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:38,600
Speaker 1: Hey, to go back to the four to one K thing, briefly,

485
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: I left out one thing. So in the actual winter

486
00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:46,200
Speaker 1: winter of your life, when you're over sixty, you're starting

487
00:26:46,240 --> 00:26:48,239
Speaker 1: to head into the actual interview life once you hit

488
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:51,040
Speaker 1: sixty four. Actually, they did up the amount that you

489
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 1: can use to catch up on your four oh one K.

490
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 1: So this is the I should have put money in

491
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,600
Speaker 1: when I was thirty, but I didn't, So they're giving

492
00:26:57,600 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: me a chance to get caught up now that I'm bridge.

493
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:02,960
Speaker 4: But they get the ketchup in the super ketchup.

494
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:06,959
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently when you get to that age. But wouldn't

495
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:11,000
Speaker 1: it be grand if you can come up with some

496
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 1: sort of system where you say, hey, can I all

497
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 1: that money you take out for my Social Security in

498
00:27:16,640 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: a program that's going broke? Yeah, that is earning zero

499
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,800
Speaker 1: money turned anoven. Can I keep that and put it

500
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 1: in my four one K? Would you let me do that?

501
00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: Because that would be I started doing that when I'm young.

502
00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 1: That's going to add up to a ton of money.

503
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 3: We got a great email from a beloved listener the

504
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 3: other day saying how right George W.

505
00:27:37,160 --> 00:27:37,720
Speaker 4: Bush was.

506
00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I privatize a portion of your Social Security contributions.

507
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 3: And the scare stories and the panic tactics that were

508
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,240
Speaker 3: employed by the left because they want that money to

509
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:52,359
Speaker 3: flow into the government because then they control it and

510
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:53,679
Speaker 3: they use it for their own power.

511
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:55,480
Speaker 1: But the idea that.

512
00:27:57,080 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 3: You're better off, I mean it could be an affirmative

513
00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 3: opt out. Sure, look, I know what I'm doing. I'm

514
00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,200
Speaker 3: opting out of Social Security. Show me the forms. I'll

515
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,760
Speaker 3: put my Social Security number down, I'll sign the form. Okay,

516
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 3: it's not like you'll do that to people who don't

517
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 3: know better, are very brighter, not capable, or whatever.

518
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,880
Speaker 4: Just those of us who choose to opt out will

519
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:17,440
Speaker 4: opt out.

520
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:18,399
Speaker 1: And if I'm.

521
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,639
Speaker 3: Starving as an ulster as a result of I bet

522
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:26,000
Speaker 3: on doge coin and that bath and beyond stock, well.

523
00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,960
Speaker 4: Then I'll turn to my local church for charity.

524
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: Have that on me. That's where the rubber meets the road.

525
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,479
Speaker 1: Though we're not a country like that. We are a

526
00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: welfare state. And if you made decisions and you ran

527
00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,160
Speaker 1: out of money, we are going to step in with

528
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 1: tax payer money to make sure you've got someplace to

529
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 1: live and got some food regardless of the decisions you made.

530
00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,840
Speaker 1: And that's the problem. That's the whole damn problem.

531
00:28:46,400 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 3: Oh, which reminds me, I know what I should invest in,

532
00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,040
Speaker 3: never mind bitcoin, freaking lab monkeys. I was reading about

533
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:56,400
Speaker 3: the South Carolina lab monkey escape.

534
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 1: We should do that out at the farm, raise the

535
00:28:59,440 --> 00:29:02,720
Speaker 1: lab monk. Got plenty of space that big bar, and

536
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: I could have thousands of monkeys.

537
00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 4: Yeah.

538
00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 3: I was thinking of convert my suburban home into it,

539
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:09,719
Speaker 3: which is exactly less advisable.

540
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:14,120
Speaker 1: But the putt in the studio, Yeah, bring some of

541
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:15,520
Speaker 1: them to work, Jack.

542
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,760
Speaker 3: I'm telling you Bitcoin is a punk of investment compared

543
00:29:18,760 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 3: to breeding lab monkeys, the Great lab monkey Shortage of

544
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 3: twenty four The story's been untold until now.

545
00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: I don't I don't really like the things they do

546
00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 1: to monkeys. Yeah, I'm not the monkey's signer release. It's

547
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 1: like the opt out so secrety plan you're talking about.

548
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: They signed an opt out and here you go test

549
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:41,720
Speaker 1: some things on me, and I get to go, well,

550
00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 1: you know, live in a suburb somewhere. That's what they

551
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 1: tell the monkey.

552
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 3: A lot of this stuff is incredibly important to medical science.

553
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,000
Speaker 3: I get people squeamishness.

554
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:52,880
Speaker 1: I respect it.

555
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,600
Speaker 3: On the other end, I'd rather have effective antibiotics.

556
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 1: If you're testing antibiotics, yes, if you're testing deodoran by

557
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 1: spraying it in their eyes.

558
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,800
Speaker 3: Over those that they don't do that. Any horrible stories

559
00:30:06,800 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 3: you hear are yeah, no, they were horrible. Yeah, absolutely,

560
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:10,760
Speaker 3: I grant you that.

561
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:11,160
Speaker 4: Yeah.

562
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:15,520
Speaker 3: But research monkeys before the pandemic. And part of this

563
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 3: has to do with our schism with China.

564
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,440
Speaker 4: Michael, I tell you what. You're a man of the world.

565
00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 3: Guess what research monkeys were, what they cost. I'm running

566
00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 3: Joe's medical research lab here, or testing just antibiotics to

567
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,680
Speaker 3: save six children. Okay, I gotta have me some research monkeys.

568
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:38,000
Speaker 3: Guess what I'm paying per monkey. Go ahead, take a

569
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 3: guess now in the back in the day, back in

570
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 3: the before.

571
00:30:41,080 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 4: The pandemic, I must say ten grand. That's that's not

572
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 4: a bad guess.

573
00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 3: Guess. I was going to guess a couple hundred dollars.

574
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,600
Speaker 3: I would have guessed seven hundred and fifty bucks something

575
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: like that. It's actually four to six thousand dollars per

576
00:30:56,240 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: monkey pre pandemic.

577
00:30:58,360 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 1: Wow.

578
00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,640
Speaker 3: Now, now, and you wish you'd bought bitcoin when it

579
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,960
Speaker 3: was twenty dollars. You wish you'd bought apple stock in

580
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:10,000
Speaker 3: two thousand and two, and you wish you'd started breeding

581
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 3: monkeys five years ago.

582
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,480
Speaker 4: It's thirty grand per monkey.

583
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,320
Speaker 1: Now, Wow, makes video look like inron.

584
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 4: We think about that from it? Yes, you're right, it does.

585
00:31:24,520 --> 00:31:27,920
Speaker 3: And and the US government is spending gobs of money,

586
00:31:27,960 --> 00:31:32,280
Speaker 3: including on this South car Carolina research lab that apparently

587
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:36,960
Speaker 3: has an honor system for the monkey's team, but unbelievable

588
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 3: amounts of money on research monkeys. Now you tell the

589
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 3: monkeys at nine you stay put?

590
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,840
Speaker 1: All right? Huh we have a deal, all right, chee

591
00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 1: chee Wow, Okay, Well I gotta go. We gotta start

592
00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: breeding monkeys. Then that's where the money is. We got

593
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,600
Speaker 1: more on the way. You can join us anytime you

594
00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 1: got a comment like we got something wrong, or you

595
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 1: want to add two text line four one five, two

596
00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: nine fifte barstraw.

597
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 4: Yet I hate these floodpants.

598
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 1: Way they're working.

599
00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,440
Speaker 3: My feet are soaked, well, my cups are bone dry.

600
00:32:14,120 --> 00:32:16,080
Speaker 4: Everything's coming up. Millhouse.

601
00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 1: One thing that I love about Milhouses. He's always getting

602
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,560
Speaker 1: knocked down, but he keeps getting up.

603
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 4: I'm never giving up.

604
00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: Here is not again.

605
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:29,200
Speaker 3: I love the little guy.

606
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:31,480
Speaker 1: That's the seventy year old woman who does the voice

607
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 1: of Millhouse on The Simpsons who says she's retiring after

608
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: this season. She's been doing it for thirty five years.

609
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:43,240
Speaker 3: The Simpsons debuted almost like exactly when I started my

610
00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:47,400
Speaker 3: radio career, and as I've told the story before, everybody

611
00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,400
Speaker 3: wanted a Bart's Simpson voice in their heads.

612
00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:52,280
Speaker 7: And I was like, yeah, cut the crap man or

613
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 7: don't have a cow or whatever.

614
00:32:53,520 --> 00:32:57,600
Speaker 1: It's terrible, but everybody like, oh, that was great, So yeah,

615
00:32:57,920 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 1: it goes on. That's one of my favorite lines from

616
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 1: the show. It's a good one. Everything's coming up Millhouse Carson.

617
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 1: Millhouse's parents got a divorce later and it became rough

618
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:14,440
Speaker 1: for the poor kid. But first, this kind of joke

619
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 1: thing that I came across yesterday. Before I get to

620
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 1: some economic news about Target. I love how the first

621
00:33:20,520 --> 00:33:22,520
Speaker 1: thing they do at the doctor's office is weigh you.

622
00:33:22,800 --> 00:33:25,440
Speaker 1: I was already nervous. Now I'm depressed. Maybe next time

623
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,480
Speaker 1: they can bring up something I regret from my past

624
00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 1: and really get this party started. That's funny. Target stock

625
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,880
Speaker 1: plunged twenty one percent yesterday as a guy with a

626
00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 1: chunk of Target stock. I wish I had put it

627
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 1: in something else. Monkeys maybe, But the retailers downbeat earnings report,

628
00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: which included lower profit and larger inventory, fell well short

629
00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: of all street expectations. But here's the interesting stuff. And

630
00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 1: economic news is we mock it all the time. It's

631
00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:02,160
Speaker 1: economic news is nut. They always come up with explanations

632
00:34:02,160 --> 00:34:06,400
Speaker 1: for why stuff happened, which you rarely have. It's usually

633
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 1: I think usually it's unknown. And then sometimes it's like

634
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,520
Speaker 1: a combination of fifty things and you don't know which

635
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 1: one was more important than the other. But to simplify

636
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,400
Speaker 1: it into one or two things very very rare, but

637
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: they always do it in whatever article you're reading. Target's

638
00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:25,240
Speaker 1: results stand in sharp contrast to its rival Walmart, which

639
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,759
Speaker 1: reported stronger than expected earnings on Tuesday and upgraded's full

640
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: of your forecast. That's worth knowing. Yes, Walmart had a

641
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 1: great quarter, while Target did not, So what gives. On

642
00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:43,200
Speaker 1: the call with analysts, Target's executives described a deceleration in

643
00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 1: sales for high margin discretionary categories such as APPERIL and

644
00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:50,520
Speaker 1: home to Corp. They also said consumers were not purchasing

645
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 1: expensive products like televisions instead opting for smaller and more

646
00:34:54,600 --> 00:35:01,719
Speaker 1: affordable items like candles and vases. Yeah, don't that pretty hilarious.

647
00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: So we're thinking about getting a big screen TV and

648
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 1: your wife says, maybe we should just get a candle instead,

649
00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: and you go home with a candle.

650
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:14,120
Speaker 3: Hey, honey, super Bowl's coming up. It'd be really great

651
00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:16,359
Speaker 3: if we had a big TV when folks come over.

652
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, but we can't afford it, so let's get a vise.

653
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 1: Okay, that was funny.

654
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 3: I was reminded the other day that they lost something

655
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,760
Speaker 3: like a billion dollars in value because they were selling

656
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 3: transgender clothes for children, so your little boy could tuck

657
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 3: his penis away and feel like a girl.

658
00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 1: I know personally two people that stop shopping at Target

659
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,879
Speaker 1: in the last couple of years because of their politics.

660
00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 1: The fact that the article that I read, the Whole

661
00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:48,600
Speaker 1: Bang article, never mentioned that once, I think is pretty interesting,

662
00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:50,960
Speaker 1: since again, I know two people in my real life

663
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:54,400
Speaker 1: that went from regular Target shoppers to never because of

664
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 1: their politics. That didn't play a role at all. Come on, yeah, yeah, week,

665
00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:01,680
Speaker 1: I was going to get the eight inch TV, but

666
00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,760
Speaker 1: I decided to get one of these vanilla scented candles.

667
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 4: Wow, it smells just like a rainforest or something.

668
00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:11,240
Speaker 1: That's great. Well, we'll sit around watch the candle kids.

669
00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 1: Times are tough, or we'll go to Walmart and buy

670
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:13,520
Speaker 1: a TV.

671
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:18,360
Speaker 3: Our four will include an analysis of what the artificial

672
00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 3: high minimum wage in California did to fast food workers.

673
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,600
Speaker 3: If you don't get our four, grab it fire podcast
