00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,560
Speaker 1: like my planes right side up, no doubt. See saying

00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,160

10
00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 3: the tutelage of our general manager. Sensors. They're doing it

11
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 3: for our old good with a seer in it a

12
00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,520
Speaker 3: c okay, that's his suppose he could be sensors.

13
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:03,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, intruder alert, intruder alert, that sort of thing. But

14
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: it's not. It's people who would limit our speech again

15
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: for our own good.

16
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, fantastic, look forward to talking about that. A lot

17
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:14,040
Speaker 4: of movement on that over the weekend and then live

18
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 4: as we're on the air right now, Marco Rubio, I'm

19
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 4: looking at him on the TV. He's in Saudi Arabia

20
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 4: with a bunch of other big wigs and for the

21
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,480
Speaker 4: first time in four years since the war in Ukraine started,

22
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 4: Remember the United States meeting with a member of Russia

23
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 4: face to face, the Secretary of States meeting with Lavrov

24
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 4: the equivalent of Russia.

25
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:36,160
Speaker 1: And they're going to try to hash out some sort

26
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: of deal without Zelenski there, which is interesting. But we'll

27
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: see how I along with the Trump administration, deny you're

28
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: very premised they're not going to try to hash out

29
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:46,479
Speaker 1: a deal.

30
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 2: They have said it's going to.

31
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: Try to understand each other's intentions, open the channels of communication.

32
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 4: There will be no deal struck. Well, that's the ultimate goal.

33
00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 4: That's the point of meeting, right sure, sure.

34
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 1: Sis, they will include Zelensky at the moment any serious

35
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 1: negotiations take place, or so.

36
00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 4: They tell him. Zelensky is in Turkey, so he's like

37
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 4: right by if they get we all agree on this, Okay,

38
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 4: let's bring him in and act like we'll have this

39
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 4: conversation again and act like he's a part of it.

40
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: Okay, el Zelenski can fly in from Turkey.

41
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,560
Speaker 4: Make it sound like a question even if it's a state, right,

42
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 4: which might be how it actually works out.

43
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 2: Man, there's some that's some high level stuff right there.

44
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 1: Uh and and horrible, horrible steakes obviously, by the way,

45
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,919
Speaker 1: it's taking a light and slightly humorous approach to the question,

46
00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 1: but of course a gruesome, gruesome.

47
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: Chapter and is horrible.

48
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 4: I can't believe it's even hardly even happening that you're

49
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 4: you're sitting down with somebody that high level from Russia,

50
00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:48,960
Speaker 4: you know, and having to talk. I mean, they're killers,

51
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: they're murderers, they're they're they're the worst of the worst.

52
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: Sure, But one.

53
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 4: Interesting thing I learned from this as an aside, and

54
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 4: then we'll get back to, you know, reality. But one

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 4: of the things I learned from one of those books

56
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 4: that I read.

57
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: Lavrov, the guy that's, you know, the top negotiator out

58
00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:07,679
Speaker 1: there for Putin, he didn't even.

59
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 4: Know that Putin was gonna go into Ukraine until it happened.

60
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 4: He was left in the dark. So how much authority

61
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,120
Speaker 4: he has to wrap this thing up?

62
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: I have no idea, but I guess we'll find out.

63
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 4: I'll tell you this, Marco Rubio's face is very serious

64
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 4: in these meetings. I'm sure they're gonna go oh, I'm sure.

65
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 4: I'm sure you're gonna kick the cameras out soon. And

66
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 4: Lindsey Graham, I just saw this on the TV Lindsay

67
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 4: Graham said a bad deal in Ukraine would be the

68
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 4: biggest mistake the United States has made since the end

69
00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 4: of World War II, which is quite a statement. I mean,

70
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 4: that's that's a pretty big statement. I mean, if you

71
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 4: heard about Vietnam and Iraq and a bunch of other

72
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 4: different things that went on since World War Two ended,

73
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 4: that's that's quite a thing to say.

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: And certainly Marco Rubio is there to execute the president's

75
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: foreign policy. But as I made no secret of when

76
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 1: he was appointed or nominated in confirmed, Marco's a hawk

77
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: and he's a hard ass, and I love him on

78
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 1: foreign policy.

79
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:05,920
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm.

80
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:10,200
Speaker 1: Thinking we're in decent hands there right Again, the administration

81
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 1: has made some noises that I appreciate the making about

82
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,160
Speaker 1: not rushing into anything.

83
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:18,040
Speaker 4: We're just gonna sit down and talk a little bit.

84
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 4: So back to your general manager, censors with a C.

85
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 4: Some really disturbing stuff happened on Sunday. If you weren't

86
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,679
Speaker 4: paying attention, and you know, you were enjoying your President's

87
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 4: Day festivities with the parades and the gifts and the

88
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 4: songs and the love making, I mean, you got the

89
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 4: romantic twoffer that is Valentine's Day, then President's Day. I mean,

90
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 4: just back bookends of a very romantic weekend dressed.

91
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: Like Lincoln again, Honey, you know I love that so disturbing.

92
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 1: Sunday was rough, so I guess to preview Sunday's night

93
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:59,680
Speaker 1: horrific sixty Minutes on Face the Nation earlier that day,

94
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: on Margaret Brennan actually said the phrase, you know, in

95
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: Germany in the thirties, free speech was weaponized for a genocide. Yes,

96
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: she came out anti free speech, and apparently CBS is

97
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 1: anti free speech as Later that nine, on sixty Minutes,

98
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: they aired an entire episode about how Germany's cracking down

99
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,919
Speaker 1: on free speech from a isn't this cool standpoint? You

100
00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 1: know this isn't aside, but I almost wish it hadn't

101
00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: been two CBS products that both unmasked themselves in the

102
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,720
Speaker 1: same way, because it's the mask coming off, I think

103
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: is the main message to take from the weekend. There

104
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,359
Speaker 1: are in Europe and in the United States prominent forces

105
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,719
Speaker 1: that are every bit as enthusiastic about eliminating misinformation and

106
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: disinformation as they were during COVID, and guess who they

107
00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: think ought to decide what's misinformation that you probably shouldn't hear.

108
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:00,720
Speaker 1: They'd be delighted to take that job themselves. And it

109
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: is now. It's funny. Another design heard a great interview

110
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 1: with an author who's got a book out about how

111
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 1: everybody's tribal and political all the time now and it's

112
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 1: not healthy. You ought not be thinking about politics twenty

113
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 1: four hours a day. It's just weird. It's never been

114
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: the way it is in this country except in times

115
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: of great crisis. And I thought, you know, that's a

116
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 1: really good point there. But when you have again major

117
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 1: societal forces saying, you know, free speech, let's reconsider that.

118
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:31,520
Speaker 1: I don't know.

119
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 2: I'm at my battle station.

120
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 4: Sorry, yeah, I'm staying here. I thought those of you

121
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 4: who are sounding the alarm on free speech head over egged.

122
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,120
Speaker 4: You're pudding. I thought you're overstating him. But man, after Sunday,

123
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,120
Speaker 4: I thought, holy crap, this might be the battle of

124
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:46,839
Speaker 4: my lifetime.

125
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:52,679
Speaker 1: This is crazy. Smart people of high position have decided

126
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: free speech is a bad idea. What Oh my god, wow, wow, Well, welcome.

127
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:58,520
Speaker 2: To the party.

128
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 3: I've been yelling this for you years and finally it

129
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 3: This is.

130
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: No way to treat your guests when they get to

131
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: a party. I am so sorry, really not a good host.

132
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: You brought deviled eggs. Nobody likes deviled eggs. Why are

133
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:15,680
Speaker 1: you so late?

134
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 2: Well, maybe we'll just go.

135
00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 4: No, get it here so that highly disturbing, and we'll

136
00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 4: play a bunch of clips from that. Yeah, in Germany,

137
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,720
Speaker 4: you could be laying in bed and the police could

138
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 4: bust down your door and run in with guns drawn

139
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: because you had a tweet that they thought was insensitive.

140
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 2: Honest to freaking.

141
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: God, tweet about Muslim immigration was really insensitive and hurt

142
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:41,720
Speaker 1: people's feelings.

143
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 2: So you're coming to jail?

144
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 1: What?

145
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 4: And CBS treated that like something to admire and pretty cool,

146
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,480
Speaker 4: with no pushback really whatsoever?

147
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 1: As I said, a freaking delighted bias. Yeah, they thought

148
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 1: it was hilarious. Some of the things that they've done

149
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:01,480
Speaker 1: to some of these people, spreading missing from and one

150
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: of my favorite free speech people I don't remember which one,

151
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: maybe Rufo or somebody on Twitter said, would have been

152
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: nice for sixty minutes to have a free speech advocate

153
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: on there to go back and forth on some of

154
00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: these things they're claiming, even for fifteen second right, somebody

155
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 1: to represent that point of view CBS.

156
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:18,960
Speaker 2: Good lord.

157
00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: And then if you think this is not important, I

158
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,800
Speaker 4: think it's a really big deal that sixty minutes, probably

159
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 4: the most important news product we have in America treated

160
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 4: free speech like it's on the it's on the table

161
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:37,400
Speaker 4: for discussion, right wow. And Germany's already gone down the road.

162
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 4: Like I just said, it's against the law to make

163
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:42,480
Speaker 4: fun of someone in public.

164
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 1: They actually said that out loud. It's a good salon

165
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,760
Speaker 1: to big fun of someone, are you, Wow?

166
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: We would really like dissent to be permissible.

167
00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 1: Signed all the little kids who are kept out of

168
00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,920
Speaker 1: schools and kept away from from their friends and are

169
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,600
Speaker 1: damaged for the rest of their lives during COVID, we

170
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: think it's important sign those little kids.

171
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 4: So we've left out of this the fact that jad

172
00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:09,560
Speaker 4: Vance was in Europe over the weekend and gave a

173
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 4: speech and really blasted Europe for this sort of thing

174
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 4: and saying, your biggest problem isn't Russia or China, your

175
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,120
Speaker 4: biggest problem is internal in this whole anti free speech.

176
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 4: And if you're not gonna do something about it, we

177
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: can't help you, and you can't help yourselves, And so

178
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 4: big uproar over that they're having an emergency meeting.

179
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 1: There in Europe. Some German high level official cride during

180
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 1: the speech. They were so upset, And it turns out

181
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 1: Jade Vance is absolutely right. Yeah, oh oh, but that's

182
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,000
Speaker 1: what Margaret Brennan was mentioning on facination when she said

183
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 1: jd Vance said free speeches blah blah blah blah blah.

184
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,560
Speaker 1: Free speech was weaponized in Germany in the thirties for

185
00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: a genocide. God, what are you talking about.

186
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:56,439
Speaker 4: Oh so that's something we're going to talk about several

187
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 4: times today. That's a really big deal, really big deal.

188
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 4: We should start the show. Officially, I'm Jack Armstrong. He's

189
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 4: Joe Getty on this. It is Tuesday, February eighteenth, the

190
00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 4: year twenty twenty five.

191
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 1: Or Armstrong in getting we approve of this program. Let's

192
00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:13,960
Speaker 1: begin uncensored according to de FCC rules and regulations.

193
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 2: Here we go at Mark.

194
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 1: Germany is cracking down.

195
00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:19,800
Speaker 5: It's all the online, it's who's new theory. We were

196
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 5: with the German police as they conducted early morning raids

197
00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 5: on citizens who had been accused of hate speech, threats

198
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,320
Speaker 5: and inciting violence online. In the United States, A lot

199
00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:32,439
Speaker 5: of people look at this and say this is restricting

200
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:33,360
Speaker 5: free speech.

201
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:42,560
Speaker 1: It's a threat to democracy. Free speech needs boundaries, and

202
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,079
Speaker 1: they'll helpfully impose those boundaries where they think it's appropriate.

203
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,320
Speaker 4: Right, and then the obvious question is, Okay, who's going

204
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 4: to draw the boundaries? Oh you are? Oh okay, Well,

205
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 4: you realize you're not always going to be in charge.

206
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 4: You're going to be comfortable with where Trump draws the boundaries,

207
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,040
Speaker 4: or whoever it is you don't like when they're in charge.

208
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: Right.

209
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: Well, and again, I hate to even go to that

210
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 1: argument because the argument and principle is good enough. But

211
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:10,199
Speaker 1: I think Vance's point. We'll play you some excerpts from it.

212
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 1: His speech is, his point on a practical level, was

213
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 1: really good and if those dopey Euros would listen to it,

214
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:21,079
Speaker 1: they'd be better off for it. He's saying to them, listen,

215
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 1: you are stifling a significant and growing portion of your

216
00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:30,439
Speaker 1: population from telling you what they need and what they want.

217
00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: This will blow up in your face, and it will.

218
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,280
Speaker 1: He's absolutely right, it's already happening.

219
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 4: Damned interesting stuff anyway, got a bunch of clips from

220
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 4: Saturday Night Lives Big fifty year anniversary which I watched

221
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 4: all of them, thought was absolutely fantastic. I've got a

222
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,240
Speaker 4: lot of stuff on the way mail bag this hour

223
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 4: stick around.

224
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 2: I mean I used to be adored by the left.

225
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: I mean I really did it.

226
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 1: I mean this whole sort of like it is.

227
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,720
Speaker 6: They call it like Trump duration syndrome, And you don't

228
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,839
Speaker 6: realize how real this is until like it's you can't

229
00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 6: reason with people. So like I was at a friend's

230
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,160
Speaker 6: birthday party in Alle, just a birthday dinner, and it

231
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,439
Speaker 6: was like a nice quiet dinner and everything was everyone

232
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:17,640
Speaker 6: was behaving normally. This is before the election, like a

233
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,720
Speaker 6: month or two before. After you mention the president's name,

234
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 6: and it was like they got shot with a dart

235
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 6: in the jugular that contained like methamphetamine and rabies, Okay, And.

236
00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:29,800
Speaker 2: I'm like wow, and I'm like what is Guys, Like

237
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 2: you can't.

238
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 6: Have like a normal conversation and it's like it's like

239
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:35,719
Speaker 6: that to become completely irrational.

240
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:39,080
Speaker 2: Wow, meths and rabies.

241
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:41,959
Speaker 1: By the way, on the Elon front found out over

242
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: the weekend, Baby number thirteen, Congratulations, Dad, here's a cigar.

243
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 1: I don't know how you get so much done changing

244
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 1: diapers and early morning feedings and then you got the

245
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 1: other dozen kids to get off to school, and I'll

246
00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:57,199
Speaker 1: put their homework and teach them how to ride a

247
00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 1: bike and all those things. Luckily employees five hundred nannies.

248
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,840
Speaker 1: He's an odd duck. Yeah, virtually every way, there's absolutely

249
00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: no doubt. But if he's doing good things, he's doing

250
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 1: good things.

251
00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 4: Like he gets a real pass on his personal life

252
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,120
Speaker 4: for some reason, you know, in a way that other

253
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 4: people don't.

254
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: And I don't know why, but yeah, he's just so

255
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 1: over the top crazy in that way. I don't think

256
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 1: there's any point in bringing it up. It's not like

257
00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 1: he can be shamed. He's obviously made that decision. But anyway,

258
00:13:23,280 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm much more concerned with what he does in terms of,

259
00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: you know, his official capacities. But anybody just you know,

260
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 1: just Fred down the hall, anybody who has thirteen kids

261
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 1: by as many different women as it took Yeseri.

262
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,760
Speaker 4: Wake, I saw the chart yesterday. I had the chart.

263
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,319
Speaker 4: I'll get into it later. So we shouldn't need a chart.

264
00:13:43,360 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 4: It's only like four women. But it's complicated, but you.

265
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 2: Don't need it chart.

266
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,680
Speaker 1: My kids happen to be visiting all at once for

267
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 1: the first time in a couple of years. It was

268
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 1: absolutely wonderful. We don't need a chart. It's those are

269
00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: my kids, right? But Fred down the Hall had thirteen kids,

270
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: four different women. He's not married any of them. You'd

271
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: think it's crazy. He's crazy. I would agree completely. So

272
00:14:05,640 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 1: a couple of notes on what's happening doge wise. I

273
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 1: love this writing.

274
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 2: Who wrote this?

275
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,200
Speaker 1: I like to give credit. Oh, Jerry Baker's absolutely terrific

276
00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:13,160
Speaker 1: with Wall Street Journal.

277
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 2: But he's talking about how the left.

278
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,920
Speaker 1: Came out and were bellowing into microphones and screeching about

279
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,480
Speaker 1: how unfair it was that any federal employees should lose

280
00:14:22,520 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 1: their jobs, and he writes it was a tableau for

281
00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 1: the ages one an example of the many strange battle

282
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: lines the Democratic Party has chosen.

283
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:30,920
Speaker 2: To defend these past few years.

284
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 1: Illegal migrants over citizens, teachers' unions over parents and children,

285
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 1: criminals over victims, men turned women. That doesn't, that can't happen,

286
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 1: Transgender people over girls. Good luck with that, Democrats. You

287
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: might want to fire your polsters. It's like that, so

288
00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 1: I wanted to share it. Elon Musk responding to a

289
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 1: different section of the absolutely idiotically dishonest sixty minutes yesterday,

290
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 1: and that was the first story about the absolute tragedy

291
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,880
Speaker 1: of canceling funding for USA, even for a few minutes

292
00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 1: as it gets reformed, and one of the more prominent

293
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: quotes was a woman crying that twelve days ago people

294
00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 1: knew where their next paycheck was coming from, they knew

295
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 1: how they were gonna pay for their kids' daycare, their

296
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:20,560
Speaker 1: medical bills. Then all gone overnight, said Christine Dry, who

297
00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: was fired, says Elon Musk sixty minutes. There're such liars,

298
00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 1: as the community notes states all employees were offered eight

299
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,480
Speaker 1: months of paying benefits. Even without that. You know who

300
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 1: else finds out with no notice that they're fired and

301
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,680
Speaker 1: the walked out to their car and wonder what they're

302
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 1: gonna do. Everybody else all the time, I don't understand this,

303
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 1: and I thought this was so interesting from the Wall

304
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:50,160
Speaker 1: Street Wall Street Journal. It was not intentionally this way,

305
00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,840
Speaker 1: but the headline is Trump layoffs push federal workers into

306
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 1: tough job hunt, and they mentioned that federal workers skew

307
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: older than those in the private sector, and their long

308
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: bureaucratic experience often makes them less competitive applicants for corporate roles.

309
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: According to career coaches and recruiters.

310
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 4: In other words, they are without skills the world needs.

311
00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's funny. There are other sentences in here. Uh,

312
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 1: instability is a jarring change from any in the federal government,

313
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:23,880
Speaker 1: which has been a bastion of long term employment. Long

314
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 1: government resumes can make it harder for workers to stand out.

315
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: Such workers often lack experience that companies seek, such as

316
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,280
Speaker 1: a track record of exceeding sales or other performance targets

317
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 1: in the government, said one expert. These are jobs that

318
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:40,600
Speaker 1: aren't always tied to tangible results.

319
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, how revealing is all that we noticed?

320
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: Well, they have no standards to reach or or goals

321
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 1: to exceed, or really leadership or I mean there are

322
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:57,080
Speaker 1: exceptions to this obviously, but for the masses of workers, No,

323
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: they're box checkers and paper shufflers, and they'll be employed

324
00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: for life, no matter how terrible they are at their jobs,

325
00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:07,840
Speaker 1: protected by their powerful, powerful, politically connected unions. So we've

326
00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 1: got mail bag Katie's headlines.

327
00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:14,080
Speaker 4: We're gonna get into that whole censorship Germany thing, free

328
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,560
Speaker 4: speech thing that is so damned interesting and maybe the

329
00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 4: most important thing going on all on the way.

330
00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 1: I hope you can stick around, Armstrong and getdy. Some

331
00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: days a whale swallows you. Some days your plane flips

332
00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 1: upside down. Life is like a box of chocolates. Welcome

333
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: to a brand new week.

334
00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 2: Why thick with odd metaphors?

335
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 4: There, folks, metaphors, there are stories from real life.

336
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,119
Speaker 2: It's not a metaphor.

337
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 1: If you get swallowed by a whale, you got swallowed

338
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: by a whale.

339
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 4: Sounded like a mataphor. I think that guy got spit out.

340
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:51,399
Speaker 4: I wish he spoke english Man. That interview is something.

341
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,560
Speaker 4: It was all to see it. Oh, you haven't seen

342
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: the interview? No, or have you seen the guy get

343
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 4: swallowed by the whale? Just heard somebody mentioned, Oh my god,

344
00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 4: it's unbelievable.

345
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:05,840
Speaker 1: He gets swallowed by a whale and then spit out

346
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,840
Speaker 1: the whale like like tickles it, toup a glottis or something.

347
00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 1: He goes, oh, and the guy comes shooting back out.

348
00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,120
Speaker 4: And then they interview the guy who speaks whatever he speaks,

349
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 4: and he says, I thought I was dead everythiwing thing

350
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:20,840
Speaker 4: with black Yeah, yeah, yeah, I think that's a reasonable assumption.

351
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then uh, then he gets spit out and

352
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 1: everything's fine. Whale swims off. Holy crap, geez, I do

353
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 1: of old. How does that make you change religions?

354
00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:33,560
Speaker 4: Or I don't know, buy a lottery ticket or something,

355
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 4: But good lord, stay out of the water.

356
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,399
Speaker 1: Canada got a preview of what it's going to be

357
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:40,480
Speaker 1: like if they don't become our fifty first state. And

358
00:18:40,640 --> 00:18:43,560
Speaker 1: on the ice the other day, the war with Canada

359
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: began with our fists. It was a solid US victory

360
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: from what I understand. The US Canada hockey game. There

361
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 1: are three fights in the first nine seconds of the game. Really,

362
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 1: and I'm told we went three and all and all?

363
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 1: My hockey fan friends, why did you not tell me

364
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: this game was so crazy.

365
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 2: It was going on?

366
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 1: I missed it anyway. I thought that was tense between

367
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,639
Speaker 1: the US and Canada and are soon to be fifty

368
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: first state. Eh. Here's your freedom loving quote of the day.

369
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:11,959
Speaker 1: Love this and along by Marina and San Diego. It's

370
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 1: a classic classic from Frederic Bastiat, a French dude. She

371
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:21,760
Speaker 1: points out helpfully, when plunder becomes a way of life

372
00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:24,359
Speaker 1: for a group of men in a society, over the

373
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 1: course of time, they create for themselves a legal system

374
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 1: that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.

375
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,480
Speaker 4: Right, and then you want those people in charge of

376
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 4: the boundaries for free speech.

377
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:39,880
Speaker 1: A free speech needs rules, said the Germans. Yes, the boundaries.

378
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: This is for your own good. We will protect you

379
00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,720
Speaker 1: from your own bad speeches. Yeah, okay, thanks, you know,

380
00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:50,320
Speaker 1: I'm good over here. We're just fine. Mailbag more on

381
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 1: that to come drop us no mailbag at Armstrong and

382
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:54,639
Speaker 1: getty dot com.

383
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 2: This is from Eric who sent us a handful of things.

384
00:19:57,840 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 1: He is going deep into the I have a whole

385
00:20:00,560 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 1: of what is Doge putting out.

386
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 2: And here's one of his favorites.

387
00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 1: Seventy five million dollars for DEI in the Department of Agriculture.

388
00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,040
Speaker 1: And this is how it works friends, twenty five million

389
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: dollars to AMA Consulting LLC, twenty five.

390
00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: Million dollars to Ivy Planning Group LLC.

391
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,480
Speaker 1: Twenty five million dollars to Timothy Londighan LLC.

392
00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 2: These are these DEI.

393
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 1: White Gilt, Eibram Kendy, Robin DiAngelo scammers and the people

394
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:36,120
Speaker 1: were making tens of millions in the Department of Agriculture. Yes,

395
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:40,800
Speaker 1: that's right, right, So we're not harvesting racist soybeans or

396
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:46,880
Speaker 1: denying black farmers the right to grow corn or something.

397
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,639
Speaker 1: Except the DEI stuff again is fake. It's Marxism. It

398
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 1: has nothing to do with actual racism anyway. That's just crazy.

399
00:20:55,320 --> 00:21:01,240
Speaker 1: Good lord. The size of the theft is just practically

400
00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: beyond comprehension, which is part of what they're counting on.

401
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: Speaking of Doge shies, show, Bob, all right, I can't

402
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,080
Speaker 1: wait until Doge gets around to the three hundred plus

403
00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,159
Speaker 1: million dollars in free federal money that Tesla took, not

404
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,240
Speaker 1: to mention the subsidies for buying one. Oh wait, never mind.

405
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 1: I really do hate hypocrisy, Bob. You're normally you find

406
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,840
Speaker 1: and humorous correspondent. I think you're one hundred percent wrong

407
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: on that. And it's not just because I like what

408
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:28,520
Speaker 1: Doge is doing. If the federal government is doling out

409
00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 1: billions of dollars in subsidies for electric cars, and I'm

410
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 1: an electric car maker, I say, okay, write me the check. Well,

411
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 1: is he supposed to turn it down because someday Doge

412
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:41,760
Speaker 1: would try to eliminate waste.

413
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,560
Speaker 4: And then try to compete against other electric cars. Yeah,

414
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:45,240
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know how that was gonna work.

415
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that's hypocrisy in the least.

416
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 1: I think that if bad policy affects your company in

417
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 1: a positive way, you take it and then, you know,

418
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:58,040
Speaker 1: try to institute reforms when you have the reins moving along.

419
00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,920
Speaker 1: This is a little out of date, but I loved it.

420
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:03,320
Speaker 1: It's a clever Valentine's Day hack from Tony in Portlandia.

421
00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: He says, I'm a man in my mid sixties, not married,

422
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 1: not interested at this stage of life. One of my

423
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 1: boys is the executive theft nice beastraw in town. Blah

424
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: blah blah. He got me reservations for two for Valentine's Day.

425
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:16,800
Speaker 1: I invited a friend, but at the last minute she

426
00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,200
Speaker 1: couldn't make it, so I still went. What I did

427
00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: not see coming was all the sympathy drinks people brought me,

428
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 1: bought me because they thought I'd been stood up. Oh wow,

429
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:26,480
Speaker 1: that is a good thing.

430
00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:31,160
Speaker 4: Remember this, guys, remember this single alcoholics Valentine's Day night,

431
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,920
Speaker 4: Sit at a restaurant by yourself.

432
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,800
Speaker 2: I prefer the term alcohol enthusiast.

433
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: And wait a second, if this is one night that

434
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 1: would prove nothing really, But he says, last year I

435
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 1: did the same thing, went by myself, the same thing happened.

436
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 1: The drinks just kept coming.

437
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:46,879
Speaker 2: Wow.

438
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 1: A couple invited me to sit with them this year.

439
00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: I'm thinking of bringing a dozen red roses, put them

440
00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: on the table and sit there with a sad face.

441
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,639
Speaker 1: Life is good if you have a sense of humor. KFTC.

442
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:57,800
Speaker 1: That's Tony in Portland.

443
00:22:57,880 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 4: Were you surrounded by the kind of people that go

444
00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 4: out to dinner on Valentine's Day night, which is a

445
00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 4: certain crowd.

446
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: Yes, and then you got that's quite the combination. Yeah,

447
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: me and most of mine are like, oh my god,

448
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: you went out on Valentine's Day night and you fought

449
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:20,840
Speaker 1: your way through. Wow, you're nuts. Let's see this from Michael,

450
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 1: who took a break from talk radio and political stuff

451
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 1: because of the turbulent times and anger and Trump and

452
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,959
Speaker 1: all sorts of stuff. It's fascinating how far apart the

453
00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,679
Speaker 1: interpretations of each party's actions can be. It's like we

454
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,720
Speaker 1: all watched the same movie and one side came away

455
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:41,639
Speaker 1: thinking it was a western and the other thought it

456
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 1: was sci fi. There's no common ground to be had.

457
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 4: That's not really an exaggeration. Well, what a great romantic comedy.

458
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 4: It was a war movie. It was a romantic comedy.

459
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:53,959
Speaker 4: It was a war movie.

460
00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 1: Yeah. I'm gonna not be specific about this sort of

461
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,919
Speaker 1: stuff for obvious reasons, but two of my kids live

462
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:01,479
Speaker 1: in the Pacific Northway, and they and the people who

463
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 1: they hang out with, they don't get a lot of

464
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: differing political inputs in that part of the country, and

465
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: so once in a while they would say something and

466
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: I would say, you know, I don't actually see it

467
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: that way, And that was a first for them and

468
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: their friends in certain ways, what do you mean? And

469
00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: some of the information and again we didn't talk about

470
00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 1: politics much at all intentionally, but some of the information

471
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 1: was completely new to them. They'd watched a western, I'd

472
00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: watched a sci fi movie. Actually I watched both for

473
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,040
Speaker 1: a living. But anyway, and then Michael says, I suppose

474
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,520
Speaker 1: you guys have become conditioned like first responders, where you're

475
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:45,399
Speaker 1: able to leave the horrors you see every day at

476
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 1: work and go on with your lives. Maybe they should

477
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: start teaching that skill in school too, because I certainly

478
00:24:49,760 --> 00:24:51,840
Speaker 1: don't have it. Glad to be back. Glad to have

479
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:53,240
Speaker 1: you back. Michael Grade email.

480
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:53,440
Speaker 2: Thanks.

481
00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:55,480
Speaker 1: I was telling my son I'd love to teach a

482
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 1: how to take in media class in college, which or

483
00:24:58,040 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: high school, which I think ought to be a class

484
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:05,040
Speaker 1: in the modern world. Yes, i'd be a very valuable skill.

485
00:25:06,119 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 1: First of all, just introducing the idea to people of

486
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,919
Speaker 1: you need to take in news from multiple sources with

487
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: multiple points of view to have the slightest idea what's

488
00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,320
Speaker 1: going on right?

489
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:17,760
Speaker 2: Right? Absolutely?

490
00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 1: I mean it's so easy to draw out a scenario

491
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:24,439
Speaker 1: where it's the facts presented would lead you quite confidently

492
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 1: to one conclusion. I've merely by leaving out the countervailing facts,

493
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: you come to a wildly incorrect conclusion, highly questionable. I've

494
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:37,560
Speaker 1: got friends in both different bubbles that have completely different

495
00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:42,240
Speaker 1: worldviews because of that, and in my opinion, they both

496
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,480
Speaker 1: benefit from a little sprinkling of the other side, just

497
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,439
Speaker 1: for perspective. Plus, as I've said many times to me,

498
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:52,199
Speaker 1: it's like not coming up against ideas you disagree with his,

499
00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: like not exercising, not lifting weights, your intellectual muscles atrophy.

500
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: You just become you know, playing on your intellectual couch,

501
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: you don't feel weak, but the minute you come up

502
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:09,879
Speaker 1: against something, you realize how weak you are. It.

503
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 4: I just don't think it's healthy laying on my intellectual couch.

504
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:16,840
Speaker 1: It's a metaphor again, So this.

505
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 4: One is a metaphor, unlike the guy who got swallowed

506
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 4: by the whale, who actually got swallowed by a whale.

507
00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,560
Speaker 1: I swear to God you presented it as a metaphor. Anyway,

508
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 1: let's see where are we? Oh? Yes, indeed, the good

528
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:28,440
Speaker 4: I got to check with my son later to see

529
00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,639
Speaker 4: how this went. He had volleyball practice at six am

530
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 4: before school started, and he was really not wanting to

531
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,880
Speaker 4: do that, and I told him he's got to. He said,

532
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:41,119
Speaker 4: I'm not doing it. I said, yes, you are. He

533
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 4: said I'm not. I said you are, and then he

534
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 4: eventually just gave it, realizing I was not budging on this.

535
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 4: But you signed up for the team. This is these

536
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 4: are the expectations.

537
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 1: As we got to. He got two matches this week.

538
00:27:52,800 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: But anyway, six am practice before school. That's something I

539
00:27:56,800 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 1: ain't never remember that man for hockey, for basketball. Luckily

540
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: in baseball you gotta have some sunlight, so they waited

541
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: till the afternoon.

542
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 4: I remember, I don't specifically met and remember many maybe

543
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,600
Speaker 4: one wrestling practice one time early, but I had a

544
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:12,719
Speaker 4: lot of band practices before school.

545
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: I was just gonna say, yeah, jazz band I remember

546
00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:19,119
Speaker 1: in high school was insanely early. Yeah, and uh, so

547
00:28:19,960 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 1: you know it's preparing you for life.

548
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 4: Huh, doing a variety of things you don't want to do,

549
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,400
Speaker 4: Having long days, which he's starting to have in high

550
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 4: school where it's you know, you're busy from when you

551
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:31,400
Speaker 4: get up until you.

552
00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 1: Go to bed at night. Yeah, that's the way life

553
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 1: often is. It prepared me for a career long career

554
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,320
Speaker 1: in morning radio, which wrecked my health and my life.

555
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 1: So your life, Oh, you're not a coal miner. You

556
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 1: talk on the radio.

557
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,120
Speaker 2: I'm barely hanging on.

558
00:28:47,240 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: You got black lung from talking on the radio. I

559
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: need to go lie down on my intellectual couch.

560
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:56,200
Speaker 4: How we got Katie's headlines on the way see what's

561
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:01,560

573
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,120

574
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 1: it does.

575
00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 4: Now a few people have commented that they all have

00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 4: crazy eyes, the four women.

00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:45,880

590
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: which was sixty minutes last night. A decreasingly relevant old

591
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 1: media hack shop if there ever was one. But boy,

592
00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 1: there's sympathy for censorship was on display.

593
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 2: So that to come next hour.

594
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 1: But first let's figure out who's reporting what it's lead

595
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,960
Speaker 1: story with Katie Green, Katie, thank you, guys.

596
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,960
Speaker 7: Starting with NBC, US and Russia agree to restore embassy

597
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 7: staffing in high level talks on Ukraine war without Zelenski.

598
00:30:57,320 --> 00:30:59,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one place I heard an interview with Marco

599
00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,720
Speaker 1: Rude Rubio where he started with, they got to do

600
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,160
Speaker 1: something about our embassy, which is a nightmare than Moscow

601
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:07,320
Speaker 1: and has been horrible forever. Let's start there.

602
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:12,720
Speaker 7: From the New York Post, Trump congratulates US forces after

603
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 7: airstrike kills quote terrorist leader in.

604
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 4: Syria didn't even hear that. That's why we listen to you, Katie.

605
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: You know from Fox News.

606
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 7: Acting head of Social Security quits after clash with Doge

607
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 7: over data.

608
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:30,200
Speaker 2: Boy, is that overblown?

609
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,120
Speaker 1: That whole down Big granted access to the computer systems,

610
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,840
Speaker 1: they could they could do anything. Now it's a number one,

611
00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: it's read only access. And how are they going to

612
00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,200
Speaker 1: figure out where the money's going unless they look at

613
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: the money. I saw a senator point out over the weekend.

614
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,040
Speaker 1: Elon Musk has one of the highest security clearances you

615
00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: can get. He's involved in rockets and works with NASA.

616
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:53,960
Speaker 1: He had to have a high security He's not just

617
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: a guy up the street from Daily Mail.

618
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:02,360
Speaker 7: Elon Musk's doge finds four ero point seven trillion dollars

619
00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:06,600
Speaker 7: in treasury payments on untraceable budget line and no one

620
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 7: knows where the money went.

621
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,240
Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh see, that's exactly what they're supposed to

622
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,280
Speaker 1: be looking for. If they overstep, they do something they're

623
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: not supposed to, if they're rude to somebody, we have

624
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:21,360
Speaker 1: ways to deal with that. But when you're taking on

625
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:26,720
Speaker 1: the gigantic, horrific, wasteful, complex, abusive federal government and the

626
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,840
Speaker 1: minute of toe gets stepped on, Chuck Schumer goes to

627
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: the steps of the Capitol and weeps the bitter bitter

628
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:37,280

629
00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:38,560

Speaker 4: Investors have not been this spessimistic about stocks in two years.

634
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,800

00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: As I was hanging upside down in my plane flames about.

638
00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 4: I would think this might be it. Even if you're

639
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 4: on the ground. I think the thing good.

640
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,239

641
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 1: upside down and it would appear nobody's going to die

642
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: from it is really amazing.

643
00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,800
Speaker 7: From the Washington Post, soldiers are arriving at our southern border,

644
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:34,480

Speaker 4: Well, word got out there are no point in trying

646
00:33:37,760 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 4: to come now. If you can get across, and you

00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,480

652
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 1: why do we have such a presence on the border.

653
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: We don't have a lot of illegal immigration. Both it

654
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,160
Speaker 1: and then I'll flood across the border and we will

655
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:04,480
Speaker 1: veer to the other guardrail.
