I'm here 0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:06.240 for the show. Open up the Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:08.480 Get out of here, Gronk. You don't need to be 0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:10.759 in every damn thing I ever look at in my life. 0:01:11.319 --> 0:01:17.839 Everybody loves Gronk. Oh my god, enough Gronk already live 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:22.280 from Studio C, a d lit room deep within the 0:01:22.280 --> 0:01:26.119 bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications combound. And hey, everybody, 0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:28.040 on a brand new week. We're under the tutelage of 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:30.600 our general manager here, pil. 0:01:30.480 --> 0:01:32.520 Phenelfia el Gleckles. 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:41.000 But super Bowl champions. I hate blowouts as my least favorite. 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:45.240 I would rather have had a that was last on 0:01:45.280 --> 0:01:47.319 my list of there's only four outcomes for any game 0:01:47.360 --> 0:01:50.120 you watch, right, your team barely wins, your team barely loses, 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.120 or the blowout either way, really and uh this is 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:57.280 the worst. I would rather have a close Philadelphia win 0:01:57.560 --> 0:02:00.200 than a Kansas City blowout. I don't like blowouts. I 0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.760 find blogs aring and uh yeah, so I was cleaning 0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:05.720 my room the entire second half. I didn't see how 0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:09.639 they scored twenty two points somehow was as clearly matter 0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:13.720 wasn't as close as the score indicates, as they say, 0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:18.040 as they often say, yeah, but yeah, that's disappointing. Well, 0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:20.160 we had, you know, many years in a row of 0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:23.120 very close super Bowls like came down to the last play. 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:25.120 I mean, that's more than you can really expect to 0:02:25.160 --> 0:02:29.240 have over and over again. Yeah, Cups was running over. 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:30.200 It was fantastic. 0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:33.760 Yeah, could this usher in a new era of super bores? 0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:37.960 Much like the nineties? Is that a thing? Did these 0:02:37.960 --> 0:02:41.520 things come in waves that you couldn't usher it in? 0:02:41.800 --> 0:02:42.799 This is footstock. 0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:45.000 It doesn't have to make a damn look of sense. 0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:48.360 What do you think, Gronk? 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:55.360 Seriously enough, Gronk, I'm amazed at how people get hot 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:59.400 and then every company out there thinks we need to 0:02:59.400 --> 0:03:01.440 throw how how much money we need to throw at 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:04.960 Gronk to get him an hour ad? Or do they 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:08.800 not know that? Maybe I'd ask Gronk just before we 0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:10.440 signed the paper and we have you in the ad? 0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:13.720 Are you doing like fifty other commercials that are gonna 0:03:13.760 --> 0:03:16.120 make people roll their eyes? They won't even remember mine? 0:03:17.040 --> 0:03:19.040 He's the U two of the twenty twenties. 0:03:19.200 --> 0:03:23.919 Good Ronk's everywhere? Every show got to have Gronk or what. 0:03:27.280 --> 0:03:29.919 The I tweeted a lot yesterday. I was on a 0:03:29.919 --> 0:03:33.040 tweet and roll before the game. My favorite thing of 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.360 the whole everything, if you saw it, was what the 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.920 hell was that like five minute Brad pit thing. I 0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:39.920 couldn't figure out, what are you asking me to do? 0:03:40.280 --> 0:03:42.480 What are you telling am I supposed to cry? Am 0:03:42.520 --> 0:03:44.880 I supposed to stand up in salute? Am I supposed 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:47.640 to be excited about football or the country or kids. 0:03:47.880 --> 0:03:49.520 I don't even know what we're doing here? Are you 0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:51.680 selling me something? Do I need to go onto a 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:54.400 website and donate money? I had no idea what's going 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:55.520 on there? Yeah? 0:03:55.760 --> 0:03:57.440 I missed the audio on that when I was at 0:03:57.480 --> 0:03:59.600 a party, so I was just looking at it mystified. 0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:02.200 You know, Brad Pitts one of the biggest stars in 0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:04.920 the world, and they gave it super prime placement right 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:08.400 before the game starts, and it was mystifying as to 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:11.160 what it was, like, what what is the message here? 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.720 Did you see that? Michael? Yeah? And it brought back 0:04:13.720 --> 0:04:15.560 memories of my dad. He used to scream at the TV. 0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.880 Damn it, it's just a football game, and it just 0:04:18.920 --> 0:04:19.839 started getting mad. 0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:21.919 That is a good thing to say. That is a 0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:24.560 perfect thing to say. Quick trying to pull my like 0:04:25.520 --> 0:04:30.279 heartstrings around patriotism and hurt children and all these different 0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:34.840 equality in the world and all these different things. Damn it, 0:04:34.839 --> 0:04:36.240 it's just a football game. 0:04:36.960 --> 0:04:39.640 I would like to see it more seriously, at least 0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:40.680 slightly more seriously. 0:04:40.960 --> 0:04:41.760 Just a pole. 0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:47.920 I guess of Americans, how many people are like touched 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:53.000 and moved that they trotted out or brought out the 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:57.000 families of the victims of the would be jihadi who 0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.479 ran a bunch of people over because it's in the 0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:03.480 same set is there's some sort of sin being committed 0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:06.320 by going ahead with life, and there was a rather 0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:08.640 important football game schedule, so we're going to go ahead 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:11.120 and have the football game. But you've got to, like Genufleck, 0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:14.200 to the idea of this is like weirdly inappropriate because 0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:15.200 there was just death here. 0:05:15.240 --> 0:05:17.320 I don't have to, by the way, I don't think 0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:20.800 you do. Entertainment executives make all, as we know, make 0:05:20.839 --> 0:05:24.800 all kinds of stupid, stupid decisions. Yeah, and whoever got 0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:28.120 together in a room and decided. They probably decided it 0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:32.080 right after the ISIS attack, when it was like super fresh, 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.200 and now we hear we are month and a half 0:05:34.279 --> 0:05:36.560 later or whatever it is where it's like, oh, yeah, 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:40.039 that's right, that happened, as opposed to I don't know 0:05:40.080 --> 0:05:42.159 if I can watch the super Bowl in New Orleans 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:46.040 after what happened the other day. Now, who was feeling 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.159 that way? And lama is another one of my tweets. 0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.680 As Lady Gaga was singing her song and people were 0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:52.839 waving her hands. Okay, I guess we're all unified. We're 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:53.839 anti ISIS. 0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:59.880 Let's get to kickoff, noted anti Ghatty activist Lady Gaga. 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.240 Ah, I don't. I don't know. 0:06:02.560 --> 0:06:05.880 There is clearly a certain sort of person for whom 0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.360 that sort of gesture is appreciated. 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:08.880 I don't believe. 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.359 Yes, I don't believe I feel better now that Lady 0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:12.920 Gaga sang an emotional song. 0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.279 I don't believe it. I think if the entire Super 0:06:15.279 --> 0:06:19.359 Bowl had completely ignored the horrifying shooting or I guess 0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:22.159 car ramming there in New Orleans, I don't I don't 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:24.040 think I would have noticed. I don't think anybody would 0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:24.800 have minded. 0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:27.359 But it wouldn't have popped into my mind. No, absolutely, 0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:29.599 I was acutely aware of the event and who was 0:06:29.640 --> 0:06:32.880 involved in New Orleans' failures and putting up the ballards 0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:34.359 and the rest of it a chapter and verse. I 0:06:34.360 --> 0:06:36.920 followed the news, but no, I wouldn't have thought of it. 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.279 I need football. I need Tom Brady in a T 0:06:39.360 --> 0:06:42.039 shirt walking between the firefighters and the cops talking about 0:06:42.240 --> 0:06:45.159 pulling together and something or other and how and you know, 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:47.640 it's a stretch anyway, We're all getting together to get 0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:49.800 drunk and get fat and watch a football game to 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:52.039 try to success. By the way, to try to turn 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:53.880 it in. I think this was Brad Pitt's message, to 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.040 try to turn it into some sort of this is 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:59.520 who we are as Americans. I think it's a real stretch. Well, 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:01.720 try to make more important than just it's a football game. 0:07:01.720 --> 0:07:05.919 It's way to kill an afternoon, and to further torture it. 0:07:06.040 --> 0:07:09.039 Because we were paying loving tribute to the death in 0:07:09.080 --> 0:07:12.720 New Orleans, it seemed insensitive not to pay a tribute 0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:16.960 to the death and destruction in California. So Tom Brady 0:07:17.080 --> 0:07:20.040 was it was was wearing an LA Fire Department. 0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:24.120 T shirt just as kind of a token representation of 0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:27.720 Oh in California too, because somebody in the meeting threw up. 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.040 But what about California? That's right, we need to resonate 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:33.400 with California. Also, Yeah, at least three people wearing T shirts. Now, 0:07:33.400 --> 0:07:35.920 three seems like a lot because the game's in New Orleans. 0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:40.240 How about one? Would one be good? Okay again, if 0:07:40.280 --> 0:07:42.400 you know what that Brad Pitt thing was, it seemed 0:07:42.440 --> 0:07:45.240 like the length of a motion picture. Please text four 0:07:45.280 --> 0:07:49.080 one KFTC. I still don't Oh crap, the Eagles just 0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:55.200 scored again. Jeez, it's to twenty four. Let's start the 0:07:55.240 --> 0:07:57.920 show officially. I'm Jack Armshaw. I hain't a lot of 0:07:57.920 --> 0:08:00.720 your cheese dip yesterday, Michael to come out. It was 0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:03.520 damn good, good, it was damn good. I wish I 0:08:03.520 --> 0:08:05.040 had to put more cheese on top because I like 0:08:05.120 --> 0:08:07.840 that part. But it was really really good. But after 0:08:07.920 --> 0:08:10.720 you get I don't know, a pound into it, yeah, 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:13.520 you start to regret your decisions. Yep, that's what I noticed. 0:08:13.920 --> 0:08:16.040 I don't have any leftovers because when I set fire 0:08:16.080 --> 0:08:19.360 to my kitchen to celebrate the Eagles, when I accidentally 0:08:19.360 --> 0:08:24.360 torched it, so I might name it Michelangelo's Regretful Cheese Dip, 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.040 because after you eat a whole bunch of it, you 0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:27.520 will regret that you had ever started. 0:08:27.960 --> 0:08:29.680 I went to the grocery store and spent money and 0:08:29.880 --> 0:08:32.240 time to do this. I feel awful. What was the 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:33.800 point here? What was I trying to a couple hole? 0:08:34.040 --> 0:08:36.800 It's not a very good endorsement. Well, it might have 0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:39.960 to do with the quantity you have to eat as 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:43.440 much as I. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe Getty on this. 0:08:43.480 --> 0:08:46.600 It is Monday, February tenth, year, twenty twenty five. We 0:08:46.679 --> 0:08:48.640 are armstrong in getting we approved of this program. 0:08:49.320 --> 0:08:51.160 All right, let's kick off the show for brand new 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:53.520 week officially according to FCC rules regulations. 0:08:53.520 --> 0:08:55.160 Here we go at Mark. 0:08:56.400 --> 0:08:56.720 On the. 0:09:01.840 --> 0:09:17.480 And see. 0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:19.800 Me. 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:28.440 Let's go Bart, Here you go. Because it was New Orleans. 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.160 I really liked the music. I thought the America the 0:09:30.200 --> 0:09:33.720 Beautiful with trombone Shorty was flipping awesome. I thought that 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:36.480 was so good. Hey, at the end. 0:09:36.480 --> 0:09:38.840 There, though we were talking about this in the pregame show, 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:41.840 he was just playing random notes that was not groovy 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:42.520 piano riff. 0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:44.599 And that was a guy that's like, yeah, whatever, I 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.160 didn't notice the piano I was singing about that. Did 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:49.240 you have a clock on? And at how do they 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:54.200 make sure the anthem singer doesn't do some insider trading 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:57.160 or whatever it is if you're involved in betting, Because 0:09:57.160 --> 0:09:59.240 it was one hundred and twenty seconds. He over under 0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.200 on the beat and you can actually bet money on that. 0:10:01.640 --> 0:10:04.280 And he could have said the Home of the Brave. 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.000 He could have had home with a brave, brave, but 0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:09.920 he went home with a brave, brave, brave right, And 0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:12.280 it got him to one hundred and twenty seconds. And 0:10:12.320 --> 0:10:15.920 I just wonder, how would you How would you not 0:10:16.080 --> 0:10:19.680 have an uncle who puts a thousand dollars on it someplace? 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:22.480 It had the feel of a team going for two 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:24.040 when they didn't need to, And. 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.200 I was said, why would they do that? Well? The 0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:31.679 spread was what right? Did you know? My favorite headline 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:35.360 of the day. What we woke up to today? The 0:10:35.480 --> 0:10:39.000 end of the penny? Donald Trump tweeting out last night, 0:10:39.280 --> 0:10:41.760 no more pennies. We spend two cents on a penny. 0:10:41.800 --> 0:10:45.080 It's stupid. We're gonna stop, he announced, He ordered the treasurer. 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:47.880 Why did this not happen before? Why is he only 0:10:47.880 --> 0:10:51.000 a person that can say the capital is of Israel 0:10:51.080 --> 0:10:53.480 is Jerusalem. We all know it, right, let's just move 0:10:53.480 --> 0:10:55.160 it over there. USA. 0:10:55.240 --> 0:10:58.959 It is a fraud the department, it's a fraud factory. 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:00.400 We got to get rid of it. But can he 0:11:00.480 --> 0:11:04.720 defeat the humble penny, the pennies? Just can he order 0:11:04.760 --> 0:11:07.480 the Treasury Department to do that? Well, we're well read 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:11.000 at the nickel must go. And let's talk about the dime. 0:11:11.480 --> 0:11:14.840 A quarter is enough of a denomination, all right, we're 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:16.160 a rich country. We're not. 0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:19.760 You know, we don't make four thousand dollars a year 0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:20.760 per capity here? 0:11:20.920 --> 0:11:21.480 Yes, wegel. 0:11:21.600 --> 0:11:24.200 Does this mean that pennies will become collectible items and 0:11:24.240 --> 0:11:25.240 that will be worth a lot? 0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.199 My son and I were actually talking about that last night. 0:11:27.200 --> 0:11:31.160 What does that mean for the penny? Does it wonder 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:34.320 what happens to it? Because there are gazillions of pennies 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:35.000 in circulation. 0:11:35.640 --> 0:11:38.319 Well, oddly enough, now that it's no longer currency and 0:11:38.440 --> 0:11:42.760 is merely the constituent parts, it's worth more. Although you know, 0:11:43.520 --> 0:11:45.960 none of us has the ability to smelt it down 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.360 to whatever, so you know there's going to be a 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.720 discount on it, but you'll probably get like one point 0:11:50.760 --> 0:11:52.080 two cents for every penny's. 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:54.240 Most of us on the show aren't tweakers. We're not 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:57.680 that fascinated by copper just in general. But all your 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:00.280 tweaker friends would love to have your pennies probably, hey, 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:03.680 tweak your friends, plenty of them. And what was the 0:12:03.720 --> 0:12:06.480 other thing? Oh, so he announced on Brett Bear's interview 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:09.800 yesterday that he said, starting in twenty four hours, Elon's 0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:12.400 going to turn his Elon whose name I now hear 0:12:12.440 --> 0:12:16.600 more than Trump's, that Elon's going to turn elected dictator 0:12:16.640 --> 0:12:20.640 by the way, a world Church's man. Yeah, which obviously 0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:22.959 you don't allow dark. You don't need to explain why 0:12:23.000 --> 0:12:25.520 that's evil. It's just obviously evil. The fact that he's 0:12:25.600 --> 0:12:30.720 rich and trying to government clearly evil. He announced that 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:33.360 Trump announced yesterday during Brettbear's interview and will play some 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.440 of it later from the super Bowl. That within twenty 0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:38.719 four hours, so that'd be today, Elon's going to turn 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:40.959 his attention toward the Department of Education. And I'm all 0:12:41.000 --> 0:12:43.200 about that. I want to hear all kinds of great 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:46.840 stats coming out on that. How does mail bag look? Oh, 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:47.199 it's good. 0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:48.960 We'll get to that a little later on in the hour, 0:12:49.000 --> 0:12:51.120 I think, right, we are we going to oh take 0:12:51.160 --> 0:12:51.800 come to schedule. 0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:54.360 That's right, We're going to do things differently. Now. Yeah, 0:12:54.920 --> 0:12:58.079 we're gonna see how this works. It could be a disaster. 0:12:58.360 --> 0:13:00.400 I mean it could be like the Kansas City Chiefs 0:13:00.400 --> 0:13:04.200 offensive line. Nothing could be that bad. Not really. No 0:13:05.080 --> 0:13:08.800 lots on the way, you stay here, armstrong and getty. 0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:10.559 What's driving this? 0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:12.520 I will keep it simple, Margaret. 0:13:13.040 --> 0:13:15.000 He is doing, in the eyes of the public, what 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:17.439 he said he would do in the campaign. 0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:19.079 There's political value in that. 0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.640 In fact, seventy percent of people say he's doing what 0:13:21.720 --> 0:13:22.320 he promised. 0:13:22.559 --> 0:13:24.160 That's whether they approve of him or not. 0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:27.000 Now there's another part of this that continues over from 0:13:27.040 --> 0:13:27.600 the campaign. 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:31.280 There were words that he was described as. 0:13:31.200 --> 0:13:36.240 Being tough, being energetic, and he still is today in 0:13:36.320 --> 0:13:39.920 big majority numbers. So as people take a look in 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.280 these first few weeks, there's been a lot of activity, 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:45.720 they're getting that general sense of governance and that's being 0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:47.200 reflected in these early numbers. 0:13:47.200 --> 0:13:49.760 So this is the most recent big poll to come 0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.640 out since Trump has been in office, and while it 0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:54.280 seems like he's been in office for a year and 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:58.480 a half, it's been He's inaugurate on the twentieth. We're not. 0:13:58.960 --> 0:14:01.560 We're ten days away from the one month then mark. 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:04.760 How is that even possible? I know we're ten world ways, 0:14:05.640 --> 0:14:08.679 we're a week and a half from the one month mark. 0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:16.920 It's incredible. I was remer it's well go ahead. 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:18.240 I was gonna say, it's a symptom of a lot 0:14:18.240 --> 0:14:21.880 of different things, including the incredible power and flexibility of 0:14:21.880 --> 0:14:24.400 the presidency. They have it within their grasp to just 0:14:24.520 --> 0:14:27.880 redesign two thirds of the policies of the United States. 0:14:27.640 --> 0:14:30.640 Government, which is not a great deal. But before before 0:14:30.640 --> 0:14:32.720 I get back to the polling, which is really good 0:14:32.760 --> 0:14:39.560 for Trump, I was reminded yesterday that FDR, when he 0:14:39.640 --> 0:14:42.840 took office, he had one day where he had one 0:14:42.920 --> 0:14:46.200 hundred executive orders in a day, seven hundred for his 0:14:46.320 --> 0:14:50.240 first year. So it's not like nobody's ever done this before, 0:14:50.840 --> 0:14:54.800 your hero lefties. FDR was really into the president gets 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:57.200 to do whatever the hell he wants. So anyway, Trump's 0:14:57.200 --> 0:14:59.560 overall approval rating with CBS after all this stuff in 0:14:59.560 --> 0:15:02.360 the world went, it's a disaster, and oh my god, 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.640 it's funny. I was in a group over the weekend 0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:06.360 because of the town I live in, they all lean, 0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:10.920 you know, Trump is hitler and just it is all 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.160 kind of a how are you holding up? You know 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:17.280 sort of mood, oh lord, which I find is hilarious. 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:19.960 And somebody said that to me, and I mean, I 0:15:20.000 --> 0:15:22.480 don't talk about politics in my own personal life. It 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:25.200 was like, I'm holding up. Fine, it's just whatever, Why 0:15:25.240 --> 0:15:28.640 would I not be Exactly According to CBS fifty three 0:15:28.680 --> 0:15:31.480 percent approval rating for Donald Trump, his overall approved rating 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:33.440 is fifty three percent, the highest he's ever had in 0:15:33.440 --> 0:15:38.160 his presidency. So apparently it's not quite so how are 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:40.600 you holding up? He as some of you might think, 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:42.320 Good lord, Well. 0:15:42.200 --> 0:15:45.600 I love the the Just a subtle little Weasley hedge 0:15:45.640 --> 0:15:49.320 there from Anthony Salvanto on Face the Nation. There he is, 0:15:49.640 --> 0:15:52.560 according to voter perceptions, doing. 0:15:52.360 --> 0:15:54.240 What he promised to do. Wait a second. 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:56.080 If I say I'm going to carry in a dozen eggs, 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.120 and I carry in a dozen eggs, you don't have 0:15:58.160 --> 0:16:01.840 to say Joe just did. But according to voter perceptions, 0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:05.040 he said he dude, no, you freaking heard me say it. 0:16:05.880 --> 0:16:08.320 Just they as such weasels. We'll get into more of 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.440 this later because there's a lot but on the biggest 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:15.840 topic of the first three weeks, Trump administration's programmed to 0:16:15.920 --> 0:16:20.760 deport immigrants illegally in the United States fifty nine percent approval, 0:16:20.800 --> 0:16:25.920 call it six oh nine percent. And yet, as I 0:16:26.080 --> 0:16:29.920 keep saying, show me a report that's not on Fox 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:33.920 where they even indicate it's neutral that he's doing that, 0:16:34.280 --> 0:16:36.960 as opposed to it's all negative. It's all bad. Clearly, 0:16:37.000 --> 0:16:40.120 this is awful. No wonder your ratings are so bad. 0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:42.880 Don't you people want to make a living, You newspapers, 0:16:42.920 --> 0:16:46.080 you TV channels. Sixty percent of America is okay with this, 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:49.200 So maybe at the very least be neutral or even 0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:50.600 shade it somewhat positive. 0:16:50.640 --> 0:16:54.120 You nut jobs, right exactly as I said off the air, 0:16:54.120 --> 0:16:57.760 their punishment is they're dying, which is a pretty good punishment. 0:16:58.760 --> 0:17:01.760 How does mailbag look now that we've tried a new schedule? 0:17:02.360 --> 0:17:04.879 Very thought provoking. I'll bet it, oh, I bet it 0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:08.560 kicks ass. It's going to be moving and just appropriate. 0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:13.280 Like that weird introductory Brad Pitt wandering around saying, looking sad. 0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:17.600 Okay, cool, that's on the way. We've got Katie's headlines 0:17:17.600 --> 0:17:19.000 and a lot more news to catch you up from 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:20.720 the weekends. I hope you can stick around. 0:17:23.520 --> 0:17:24.639 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:26.560 --> 0:17:29.080 As I mentioned earlier, and because I'm a guy with 0:17:29.119 --> 0:17:31.840 a couple of school age kids, I'm excited that Elon 0:17:31.880 --> 0:17:34.479 and Dozer turning their attention toward the Department of Education 0:17:34.680 --> 0:17:39.720 this week. I'm already out a tweet from Elon. Every 0:17:39.880 --> 0:17:42.440 education and research grant made over the past four years 0:17:42.480 --> 0:17:46.040 required DEI in one form or another. The US Department 0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:50.080 of Education spent at least one billion dollars since twenty 0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:54.000 twenty one on advancing DEI, hiring programming, mental health training, 0:17:54.040 --> 0:17:56.119 et cetera, et cetera. They're going to get into the 0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:59.640 details of it. Excellent Tim saying the whole DEI shot 0:17:59.720 --> 0:18:02.040 through our government is way worse than people even think 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:05.840 it is. Oh yeah, well, I guarantee that's true. Yeah. 0:18:05.880 --> 0:18:08.280 I love this. Couldn't love it more. Here's your freedom 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:10.040 loving quote of the day. This one goes out to 0:18:10.160 --> 0:18:13.800 Patrick Mahomes and Andy ridd the entire Chiefs Organization, Day, 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:15.439 Tay and others. 0:18:15.520 --> 0:18:19.960 Hey Taylor, you're at your husband's workplace. How about not 0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:22.720 shorts and a tank top? Have some class. You look 0:18:22.800 --> 0:18:26.359 like a bar waitress. Oh wow, Wow, kicking her. 0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:28.720 Well, she's down, poor kid. What has she got to 0:18:28.760 --> 0:18:30.000 going for now? Very little? 0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:32.840 Oh this is from Edwin Markham. 0:18:32.920 --> 0:18:36.760 The quota's defeat may serve as well as victory, to 0:18:36.840 --> 0:18:40.240 shake the soul and let the glory out. 0:18:41.320 --> 0:18:43.000 Some nice phrase making right there. 0:18:43.119 --> 0:18:46.160 Huh you go, feet may serve as well as victory, 0:18:46.240 --> 0:18:49.040 to shake the soul and let the glory out. 0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:51.280 I found that to be truth. So well, it's one 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:54.160 of the avengers of being a religious guy like Patrick Mahomes. 0:18:54.200 --> 0:18:56.000 After all the winds, it's always well, it's all thanks 0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:57.879 to God. It's all his work. So I mean, you 0:18:57.880 --> 0:18:59.560 can do the same after a loss. Just you know, 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:03.760 I'm supposed to learn something from this, so here we go. Yeah. Yeah, 0:19:03.760 --> 0:19:06.560 he's a good kid, that Pat Malmes. Glad to see 0:19:06.600 --> 0:19:09.879 him doing well, mailbag, Glad to see him do well. 0:19:10.240 --> 0:19:12.840 Not so much yesterday, of course, not his fault. I don't. 0:19:12.880 --> 0:19:14.800 You could put any quarterback in the world there. Oh, 0:19:14.840 --> 0:19:18.120 you got half a second before the biggest of the 0:19:18.160 --> 0:19:20.199 line in history is going to jump on top of you. 0:19:21.240 --> 0:19:23.879 Right, You could have a committee a Joe Montana, y, 0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:26.920 a tittle, Tom Brady and whoever else you wanted back 0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:28.680 there trying to figure out what to do, and they'd 0:19:28.680 --> 0:19:29.399 all be run. 0:19:29.280 --> 0:19:31.560 For your life. That's what you need to do. Get 0:19:31.600 --> 0:19:33.400 more life insurance. That's what I suggest. 0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:36.840 Drop his note mail bag at Armstrong Andgeddy dot com. 0:19:37.160 --> 0:19:39.680 Faggotty Steve Wright's that's friend of Armstrong and Getty over 0:19:39.720 --> 0:19:42.919 ten years. I'm very dismayed by the lack of diversity 0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:45.920 in the halftime show yesterday, seventy five percent of America 0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:47.040 was not represented. 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:50.000 I'm just saying that's a good point. I didn't know. 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:52.240 I saw that black chick dancing really cool, and I 0:19:52.240 --> 0:19:54.040 thought that's kind of cool. It was Strina Williams. I 0:19:54.040 --> 0:19:57.720 didn't realize that was her. She didn't really dance. Oh, 0:19:57.800 --> 0:19:58.720 I'm not surprised. 0:19:58.800 --> 0:20:02.679 Yeah, but or for a halftime show that looks like America, Uh, 0:20:02.840 --> 0:20:05.280 Kurt from San Jose, California. 0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:07.520 Trump's gonna stop minting pennies. Good. 0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:09.919 Then I don't have to give my thoughts to anyone. 0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:12.360 I can stop always having to watch out for things 0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:15.280 falling from heaven. I don't have to defend the worthiness 0:20:15.320 --> 0:20:17.600 of something to smallest level of investment. 0:20:17.800 --> 0:20:20.400 Can quit being so stingy and having to pinch something. Yes, 0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:20.879 and can. 0:20:20.760 --> 0:20:22.960 Stop trying to give even a little credit to someone 0:20:23.000 --> 0:20:25.280 for being barely wise when they are just fooled. 0:20:25.359 --> 0:20:25.560 Wow. 0:20:25.840 --> 0:20:28.800 A clever reference to the many expressions in the English 0:20:28.880 --> 0:20:30.080 language that reference the penny. 0:20:30.200 --> 0:20:34.120
