1 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg is promoting the extremist because Mark Zuckerberg is 2 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:32,000 Speaker 1: actually sea his site, the Zuckerberg site has actually set 3 00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: up set up like add promotions that actually push people 4 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 1: towards extremists, sites that kill federal officers, and Mark Zuckerberg 5 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,480 Speaker 1: becomes a billionaire. So that's Joe Scarborough obviously pretty fired 6 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: up about Facebook and Zuckerberg. What was he talking about 7 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:05,120 Speaker 1: particularly there, Facebook and its role in federal officers being killed? 8 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,440 Speaker 1: Do we want to talk about the boogaloo movement here? 9 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: Or what is the boogaloo movement? I've heard you say that, 10 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 1: I've seen it somewhere. Uh So this is the new 11 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: uh extreme far right kind of crew. Um. Uh most, 12 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 1: this is the next most likely group to show up 13 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: at a at a pizza joint thinking there's a pedophile 14 00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:33,400 Speaker 1: ring in the basement out their internet organized right wing extremes. 15 00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,479 Speaker 1: Right wing extremist called allegedly that Air Force guy who 16 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: killed a couple of cops is part of that. Yes, 17 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: and so that's the incident that he's referring to in 18 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,600 Speaker 1: the Oakland protest. There was one of these guys who 19 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: was using that as an opportunity to quote unquote try 20 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: to start a race war, depending on which article you 21 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: read of the and scarboroughs of the belief that Facebook 22 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: needs to find a way to monitor those and keep 23 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: them off the site, right. And then you got NBC 24 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 1: mobilizing activist groups to defund conservative websites on Google, and 25 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 1: Google saying you have to police your content even as 26 00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:11,000 Speaker 1: they say we don't have to police our content, and 27 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: big tech just scary. I saw this piece and Wired 28 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,040 Speaker 1: dot com caught my eye. Facebook groups are destroying America, 29 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 1: and uh it talks about how these uh, it's actually 30 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: pretty interesting, um about how you have these private Facebook 31 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: groups are closed groups, you know, not everybody can see 32 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: what's posted in the rest of it, and families have 33 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: them or or whatever. But they talk about how bad 34 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:40,080 Speaker 1: actors can infiltrate them and start spreading misinformation trolls and 35 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: Russian bot farms and the rest of it. Um. But 36 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: then you get into this. Groups continue to be used 37 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:50,040 Speaker 1: for political disinformation. The Obama Gate conspiracy theory is yet 38 00:02:50,040 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: to be defined in clear terms, even by its own adherence. Uh, 39 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: that's not right. And yet our analysis of face groups 40 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: groups show that the false narrative that the Obama administration 41 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: illegally spied against people associated with the Trump campaign is 42 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: being being fueled and nurtured there. Ah, So that's false, 43 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: even though the stated is fact, even though the current 44 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: Attorney General says that is what happened. Well, the Inspector General, 45 00:03:17,600 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 1: who is completely nonpartisan, says that there were many, many, 46 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 1: uh illegal activities and getting the FISA warrant, And the 47 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: head of the FBI says, if I knew now what 48 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: I knew that, I never would assigned it. But they 49 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: just stated as fact and wired that. Um, the false narrative, 50 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. It's it's a conspiracy theory, blah blah blah. 51 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. So but is there some is there a 52 00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 1: growing belief that Facebook is like the home of right 53 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: wing stuff and Twitter is the left wing stuff. I'm 54 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: not on Facebook. I'm on Twitter every day, but I'm 55 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: never on Facebook, So I don't really know much about 56 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: the left thinks thinks there's too many quote unquote Nazis 57 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: on Twitter too, right, Like a lot of these social 58 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: media sites hit the sweet spat of both sides. Think 59 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: they're doing horribly. Um, but if you were to pull 60 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: uh particularly you know, probably thirty five and unders rank 61 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,960 Speaker 1: the political leanings of these social media sites. Facebook would 62 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: probably be the far right one. Interesting are the most right? 63 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: Not far It's certainly an older platform, yes, by many years. 64 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: Your average Facebook or is much older than your average 65 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 1: instagrammer or whatever, snap, twitch, blitch. How much of Facebook blump? 66 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 1: How much is Facebook is political at this point? Or 67 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: is it still dominated by a lot of people who 68 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: just much too much? Is the just have pages that 69 00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:44,240 Speaker 1: are about their their their grandkids and their lives in 70 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: their new puppy and that sort of stuff. I don't know. 71 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,080 Speaker 1: But the issue is, should uh, the evil Mark Zuckerberg, 72 00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:55,760 Speaker 1: who is indeed the Antichrist Zuckerberg? Should he be awaying 73 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: in and finding they hate stuff and getting rid of it. Well, 74 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: at the very at least adjust your algorithms so that 75 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: doesn't become a prominent thing on my news feed just 76 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: because it's getting a lot of engagement. Well, that's a 77 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: tough one. That's a tough one because it is one 78 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 1: of the they're they're not technically a publisher, but as 79 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 1: one of the largest publishing outfits in the world, they 80 00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 1: allow things to be seen that you had had to 81 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: work hard to find otherwise. So they're algorithms pushed them 82 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: toward people who might be open to the idea or 83 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 1: at least um you know, of whatever the view is, 84 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: or at least you know curious enough to whatever um, 85 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: but would have never you'd never been able to find 86 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: it before, you wouldn't even know it existed. I'm not 87 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: on Facebook. I didn't know what boogaloo was, but so 88 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 1: if I were on A. McCartney's nickname the early seventies, 89 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: I think today's his birthday, it is, have your birthday, Paul? 90 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: How old is? I'm not gonna say, Sir Paul, because 91 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 1: number one, the idea of a night is idiotic, and 92 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: number two, I'm not British, but he's seventy eight, Michael 93 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: the same ages Joe Biden, only four year old years 94 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,320 Speaker 1: older than our current president. So he seems to be 95 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,320 Speaker 1: he's his mental faculties about him, Sir Paul. Yeah, yeah, 96 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: he does. He does. Seems sharp as it can be. Fantastic, 97 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: charming fella. Anyway that banned the Beatles. Seriously, Oh I do, um, 98 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: I do? I would like it if these these these 99 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 1: platforms that have so much power to get information out 100 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: could figure out a way to not push stuff that 101 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,120 Speaker 1: otherwise you wouldn't be able to come across. It's really 102 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: doing them a favor. It's really doing like your most um. 103 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,600 Speaker 1: He isn't the word extreme because we've used the word 104 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:48,800 Speaker 1: extreme twenty times already in this conversation. A fringe their 105 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: their fringe ideas that are getting put in a prominent 106 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: spot and then therefore just having a chance to grow. 107 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: And that I don't think that does anybody any good. Yeah, 108 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 1: one of the great downsides of the Internet is some 109 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: of the sickest among us. Who couldn't you know? It's 110 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 1: very much like a virus and and I realized the 111 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 1: term viral is is overused. But if you think, you know, 112 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: I really like having sex with children, oh boy, you're 113 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,000 Speaker 1: not going to be able to spread that virus because 114 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,640 Speaker 1: you can't find anybody else who who's willing to take 115 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 1: it on. And you keep it to yourself. You realize 116 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: you're sick, You realize I gotta keep this under wraps. 117 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 1: I can't do it. You bring it up at the bar, 118 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 1: you get beat upright exactly. Yeah, as opposed to with 119 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 1: the Internet, you can find a hundred thousand people who say, heck, yeah, 120 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: me too. You're right, that's not weird at all. Good 121 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: for you. Oh, it's so ugly. It reinforces such such 122 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: terrible things. I mean obviously, and we've plowed this turf before, 123 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: plowed this ground. But how do I how do I 124 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: put this exactly? Well, it's just and there are some 125 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: things that should not catch there are some things that 126 00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: should not be seen, They should not be discussed. Um. 127 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: Oh man, I saw a great ad the other day. 128 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 1: I wish we could get it going in the US. 129 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 1: It was a uh it was done in New Zealand 130 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:17,280 Speaker 1: and it was naked. Couple shows up at this lady's 131 00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: front door, super ripped dude, hot hot gal. There ass 132 00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: nude okay. Their bits are are covered up by like 133 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,560 Speaker 1: the railing of the porch. It's cleverly done, you know. Um. 134 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 1: And they say hello, we're here to see Jimmy. And 135 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Mom's like what. And they said, well, Jimmy watches us 136 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: having sex online and we wanted to meet him and 137 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 1: talk to him, and and and mom is you know 138 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: aghast and and and then the two alleged porn actors 139 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 1: actually say some really cool stuff about oh yeah, I 140 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,240 Speaker 1: want to mention to him that. Look, I never asked 141 00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 1: for consent. It just happens at all. And that's not 142 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: how real life works. And I do things, you know 143 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,920 Speaker 1: in these movies nobody ever does, and and nobody wants 144 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 1: and and the woman's like, oh yeah, that sort of thing. 145 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: There's no real woman who wants that. And we just 146 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: want to let Jimmy know that. And and then mom says, oh, 147 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: I think maybe it's time to have a talk with 148 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: Jimmy about the difference between what he sees online and 149 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: real life relationships. I thought that was good. Yeah, God, 150 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,440 Speaker 1: dang it. We're just we're just entering that world with 151 00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 1: the kids getting better at exploring on the internet. They 152 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:28,440 Speaker 1: don't have necessarily the the you know, the sex drive 153 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 1: thing happening yet, but just the exploring the internet that 154 00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 1: we're we're in it. We're at a state with a 155 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:35,599 Speaker 1: ten year old and a year old. It's more of 156 00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: an accidentally coming across something that seeking it out mostly. 157 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 1: But um, it's just and I know every generation has said, 158 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 1: you know, today's harder to raise kids. And I'm sure 159 00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 1: they've been saying that since and there'll be you know, 160 00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:52,040 Speaker 1: when I was a kid, they didn't have the wheel 161 00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: you didn't have to worry about some kid going out 162 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: there getting run over by a wheel because we map 163 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: the wheel. But the Internet is just uh an opportunity 164 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: and everybody knows this. I'm not saying anything new here, 165 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: but the an opportunity that there wasn't even anything close 166 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:12,960 Speaker 1: to that prior to the Internet, for an opportunity for 167 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: kids to get, you know, into whether it's conversing with 168 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:18,600 Speaker 1: the some of the human beings you were just talking 169 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 1: about some of the worst human beings on Earth my 170 00:10:20,760 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 1: kids can talk to today would have been impossible. And 171 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: those people are anxious to talk to your kids and 172 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 1: are clever it figuring out how to get to him 173 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: and um, and it wasn't even possible a few years back. 174 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: That's just it's absolutely amazing. I'm surprised we haven't come 175 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:42,560 Speaker 1: up with a better way to to to weed that out, 176 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: to have that stuff harder to get to. That it's 177 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: that it's still as wide open as it is on 178 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: the Internet. Is it a technical difficulty, is it a 179 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: First Amendment difficulty? Is it all wrapped together? I still 180 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,680 Speaker 1: don't understand why all pornography can't be on a on 181 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 1: a you know, dot x x x website and it's 182 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: everybody can go there who wants to. But I can 183 00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: put a simple filter on my computer it says, don't 184 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: go to those websites and understand why we can't do that. 185 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:13,120 Speaker 1: Who's gonna enforce that? When the guy puts it on 186 00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 1: dot com out of you know, alley in Bangkok or 187 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: what have you. There's just there's no way to filter 188 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: that out coming into our country with our with our 189 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,320 Speaker 1: internet providers. I don't think so. I mean, if you 190 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: find it, but the bad guys are always a step 191 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: ahead of the good guys. I mean, I I name 192 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: my hard core sicko porn site nice Puffies dot com. 193 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 1: But if there was a if there was enough, um, 194 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: there's no restrictions on the porn on dot x X, 195 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: what would x x X. What would be the advantage 196 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 1: that all your audience that you want for your porn 197 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 1: is over there? What would be the advantage to go 198 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: into the other Because they if there's a monetary system 199 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: based on clicks, they don't care how old the person is. 200 00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:56,320 Speaker 1: By by putting it in a place that isn't gated 201 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: off by the dot x x X, they are able 202 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,920 Speaker 1: to farm more clicks and However, the economic Okay, that 203 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: makes sense to me because there would be enough parents 204 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: that wouldn't you know, they wouldn't allow it into their home. Uh, 205 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: And then there'd be a billion clicks out there for 206 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:15,280 Speaker 1: high school boys for instance. Okay, maybe a click farmer 207 00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:17,080 Speaker 1: is the compromise for me, because I kind of like 208 00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: the modern world and I kind of like a more 209 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 1: old timey, small town existence. So I want to become 210 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 1: a farmer, but I don't know how to grow crops. 211 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 1: And maybe I could be a click farmer just a 212 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,239 Speaker 1: wall of a hundred iPhones. Yeah, I'd have the coveralls 213 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,480 Speaker 1: and the straw and a tractor and everything. And in 214 00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: a hundred iPhones or a thousand iPhones, this is a 215 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,920 Speaker 1: growing on this farm. This is a growing movement. By 216 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 1: the way, there are a lot of Congress people looking 217 00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: into this and trying to figure it out, and I 218 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:43,400 Speaker 1: would love for them to succeed in that. I would. 219 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 1: I haven't heard the solution. I actually wonder if it 220 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: doesn't have to do with like people who are in Congress, 221 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,200 Speaker 1: who are around a certain age, who kids are entering 222 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: that age of the Internet, who have all of a 223 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: sudden decide what can I do about this. I think 224 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: that might be white's bubbling upright, Yeah, I think so. 225 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,199 Speaker 1: I think you're absolutely right. Just a quick screed. All 226 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: the children listening to the show. I'm gonna address the boys, 227 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna talk about girls because I'm a straight guy. 228 00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 1: Did you know that about me? Hey? Real women are great, 229 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: and real relationships are great. They're kind of complicated and 230 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:22,000 Speaker 1: sometimes painful. But the whole internet thing sick the kids. 231 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: It's not normal. It's really not normal. I can't even 232 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: imagine coming to that first started before you had a 233 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: real adult relationship. I can't either. You started there, right, 234 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 1: that was your introduction to what sex is, right, I 235 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: can't even imagine how that changes the way things look 236 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: to you. You grow up thinking every baseball game includes 237 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: a fist fight, and then you join your first baseball team, 238 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,800 Speaker 1: You're gonna have a perverse view of what baseball is. 239 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: And yeah, it's it's troubling, and I got no solution 240 00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 1: for you. There's got to be a solution. We'll talk 241 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: to your kids. Just has to be talked to your 242 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 1: kids about porn. About better one than that, though, There 243 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 1: has to be even a better one about your libertary 244 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 1: I hate you. I'll never listen to your show again. Saved. 245 00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 1: So Mark Stein, he's a funny guy, was on Tucker 246 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: Carlson last night and they were talking about how they're 247 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: in Chaz in Seattle. They're gonna have some sort of 248 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: games or sports in there, and you're mocking like the 249 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 1: Chas Olympics chads having their own Olympics and that sort 250 00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: of thing, and they got off on this Mitt Romney, who, 251 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: as as you know, is I believe the first US 252 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 1: ambassador to the Chopp is Sony people. He really fought 253 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: hard for that job, and as you know, he ran 254 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: the Winter Olympics. He's actually got managed to import a 255 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 1: couple of the top Winter Olympic sports into the Chop 256 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 1: Summer Games. For example, we got the two man luge. Uh, 257 00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 1: there's a bit of a difference. The guy on the 258 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: bottom is one of the CHOP residents, but the guy 259 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,320 Speaker 1: on top is actually a statue of Christopher Columbus that 260 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 1: they've toppled and so find the preliminary rounds. I believe 261 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: it's the Richmond Chris Richmond, Virginia Christopher Columbus statue that 262 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,240 Speaker 1: is in the lead. The Boston Christopher Columbus statue is 263 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: close behind, but there's some technical dispute with the judges 264 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 1: because that guy had his head decapitated, and it's not 265 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 1: clear whether a headless Christopher Columbus is actually eligible for 266 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:54,400 Speaker 1: the two man luge. Telso made the joke about their 267 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: sporting of it. There was a controversy when one of 268 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: their uh, one of them tested and there was urine 269 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 1: in their drug stream. Oh that's good, that's good. And 270 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: something tells me chopperstan will have fellas identifying as women 271 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: women and all the women's events because they won't dare 272 00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: you know, crackdown on that. So there was an attempt apparently, 273 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: I don't know how serious it was in Portland overnight 274 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:25,120 Speaker 1: late last night and this morning to try to get 275 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 1: one of these going chopp a takeover, and they got 276 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: it shut down really fast, which is a good idea 277 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 1: because once it gets going and it grows, then you 278 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 1: end up with real political problems trying to figure out 279 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: how to navigate those waters. But they let it get 280 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 1: started in Seattle and it continues and this could be 281 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:49,120 Speaker 1: one of those things that's there for months. Right Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 282 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: I'm trying how the businesses are going to deal with 283 00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 1: that if it, I don't know if some businesses closed 284 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: and some businesses who are more friendly stay there, are 285 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 1: they are they getting enough patrons in the day? Are 286 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,200 Speaker 1: enough regular people able to uncomfortable enough to walk through 287 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: chas to go to these various stores. You can't drive 288 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 1: down the streets anymore? No, No, I wonder, although there's 289 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 1: so little will in Seattle to do anything with bums 290 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: and junkies and ne'er duels. You know, what we left 291 00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 1: out is that the autonomous zone they set up in 292 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 1: Portland was right outside the mayor's apartment. That makes a difference, 293 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,920 Speaker 1: and so the coppers moved in quickly tore down. That 294 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 1: makes a difference. Yeah, because I was kind of surprised 295 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:33,960 Speaker 1: that Portlandia, who's their very Twitter account has a rainbow 296 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 1: police badge. Honestly, um, I was surprised that they took 297 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: such decisive action. Now I get it. So if they 298 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 1: set up not in front of the mayor, they might 299 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 1: still be there, could be the Armstrong and Getty shows. 300 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:06,960 Speaker 1: We're not going to shut things down to people don't 301 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,600 Speaker 1: want it. The politicians don't want it, but the public 302 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,840 Speaker 1: wouldn't support it. But that doesn't mean that we can't 303 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:14,439 Speaker 1: take targeted measures in places where it is spreading. So 304 00:18:14,480 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 1: in Texas, for example, um of all the hospitalizations are 305 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: between the age of twenty and twenty nine. UM. In 306 00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: some parts of Texas around Austin, more than half of 307 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: the infections are under the age of thirty. The governor 308 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 1: there has said, anythings, bars are congregant setting where a 309 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: lot of the spread is taking place among young people. 310 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: So you might take some targeted actions in the places 311 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 1: where there are outbreaks against those establishments where you might say, 312 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: well you have to go back to fifty percent occupancy 313 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 1: of twenty. Maybe you close some establishments on a temporary basis. 314 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 1: Those are targeted mitigation steps. We have to be willing 315 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:49,000 Speaker 1: to consider those kinds of targeted steps if we want 316 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 1: to prevent these outbreaks from happening. Interesting. Interesting Dr Gottlieb saying, uh, 317 00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 1: they're not gonna shut down divisions. People don't want it, 318 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: They wouldn't do it. That's interesting because we so will 319 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: legally did it at the beginning, and now he's just 320 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: saying people wouldn't do it. Well, we were sold a 321 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 1: rationale for extreme clothes down strategies that no longer seems 322 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: to old water. So yeah, we're willing to do something 323 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,919 Speaker 1: which is probably not that again, So I find myself 324 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 1: exhausted by the news flow. Tell me about it. And 325 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:23,199 Speaker 1: you know, we live it because it's what we do 326 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,160 Speaker 1: for a living. But my my wife barely pays attention 327 00:19:26,160 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: to the news at all, and she said she was 328 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: exhausted by the news flow. And polls show everybody's exhausted 329 00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: by the news flow. And it's part of the whole 330 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 1: part of it is, Um, you know what the differences 331 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 1: between a good high school band and a bad high 332 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 1: school band? I remember this from being in high school bands. 333 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 1: Uh is dynamics. Uh, you're bad high school band. Everything 334 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: is played at the same volume all the time. You don't, 335 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: you don't, get quiet, and then get loud, and then 336 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 1: get quiet, and then somewhere in the middle of just 337 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,359 Speaker 1: everything is the same volume, beginning to end. And that's 338 00:19:57,359 --> 00:19:59,439 Speaker 1: the way the news is now. Everything comes at you 339 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: at the same volume, as if everything is the most 340 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: important thing happening in your life. And rather than everything 341 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,120 Speaker 1: being elevated too important, it is going the other direction, 342 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:11,879 Speaker 1: at least in my mind, and I think in the 343 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:15,520 Speaker 1: nation's mind. Um, everything is being is going down to 344 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 1: just everything. You can't break through because everything is the 345 00:20:18,920 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: same volume all the time, right right, Well, you know 346 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,880 Speaker 1: just about the cliche if everything is the biggest thing, 347 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: nothing is the biggest thing. Yeah, and don't I don't 348 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: know what fixes that. I don't know if I'll be 349 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:32,200 Speaker 1: able to find it quickly enough, because this it makes 350 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: me insane too, especially because I actually care about a 351 00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,840 Speaker 1: lot of this stuff. Um, I think a lot of 352 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: talking heads are just putting it on. In fact, we 353 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: know some talk show hosts who, uh, you're a conservative 354 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: talk show host, and then they got hired to a 355 00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 1: liberal place. Now that they're they're liberal talk show host 356 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 1: their gutless, soul less mind one in particular, i'd like 357 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: to name both picturing the same, but that would put 358 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:56,399 Speaker 1: me at his level, and I don't want to be 359 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 1: at his level because I wouldn't like the view from 360 00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: down there. I'm trying to find in Matt Taiebee's fabulous 361 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: piece that we talked about, the American press is destroying himself, 362 00:21:05,600 --> 00:21:09,159 Speaker 1: he and his usual fashion, as he's rather an eloquent fellow. 363 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: I was talking about, um, the very, the very phenomenon 364 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:21,280 Speaker 1: we are that everything is always the most important thing. Ever, 365 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: and how that's you know, another one of the real 366 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,359 Speaker 1: sins of modern so called journalism. I agree with them. 367 00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 1: It's been quite hilarious seeing people who I guess we've 368 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,880 Speaker 1: only read that piece by Matt Taiebee coming at him 369 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: on Twitter for being some sort of right mouthpiece. Yeah, 370 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,600 Speaker 1: go go go go back through the years. Um so 371 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:43,640 Speaker 1: does a lot of this get fixed? Democracy, media, all 372 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: that sort of stuff with time and a reaction to 373 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: the things. And it's just slower than we would like. 374 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: That's what I'm hoping that. It's just the reaction will 375 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:53,920 Speaker 1: be there. It'll get fixed. It's just gonna take longer 376 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,439 Speaker 1: than I would like. In that to a large extent, 377 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: I think so people get tired of the same volume 378 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 1: of all the news, we start tuning out. Media outlets 379 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 1: are desperate to try to figure out how to get 380 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 1: people's attention, and they rediscover and it might take ten years, 381 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: is that the way you can get and keeps people 382 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:17,119 Speaker 1: attention is by having some varying levels of intensity, as 383 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:20,119 Speaker 1: opposed to it always intense. It just takes a long 384 00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:21,800 Speaker 1: time to get there. I don't see it go in 385 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:24,840 Speaker 1: that direction. It's going in the direction of more and 386 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:30,359 Speaker 1: more targeted ideological bubble yelling. But we'll all go crazy 387 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:33,280 Speaker 1: if we're if we're all check out or check out, 388 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:37,320 Speaker 1: if we're all being if our brains are being assaulted 389 00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:41,960 Speaker 1: with stuff that reinforce this is a scary time. It 390 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:44,960 Speaker 1: got even scarier while you were asleep last night. Things 391 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: are even worse than they were yesterday. If if our 392 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,800 Speaker 1: brains are assaulted with that every single day, we'll go nuts. 393 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: Will all be a bunch of anxiety cases we are 394 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: we are well, and or people will tune out, which 395 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,600 Speaker 1: will open the door for the most brutal and cunning 396 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 1: to take control of the country and twisted to their 397 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: their ends, which is probably giving people anxiety that sentence, 398 00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 1: and I apologize for that. But if we completely check 399 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 1: out of the political process, or it gets dumbed down 400 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,440 Speaker 1: even more, I don't know where it heads. I don't 401 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: know where it goes, probably not toward anything good. So 402 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: the shift leader at a Taco Bell has lost their job. 403 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:29,159 Speaker 1: I still have not eating a Taco Bell, but I 404 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,000 Speaker 1: understand it's just fantastic authentic Mexican foods. Oh it is 405 00:23:32,040 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 1: too carefully prepared gourmet Mexican fair, authentic. Just you feel 406 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 1: like you're in Mexico. Do you want to know how 407 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 1: l Chopo with his billions eight go to a Taco Bell. 408 00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:48,120 Speaker 1: So the shift leader at this Taco bell in Ohio, well, 409 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 1: shift leader for eight years, lost his job Monday after 410 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 1: refusing to take off a Black Lives Matter face cover 411 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: he wore to work. He wore the cover because the 412 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 1: surgical masks provided to employees are inadequate when it's warm, 413 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 1: He says. Anyway, uh, and who were we about to 414 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 1: hear him argue with I believe this is his direct supervisor, 415 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 1: is like the manager. The manager told me he had 416 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 1: to take it off skin and refused, walked out of 417 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: the restaurant. Blah blah blah. Let's see how this sounds. 418 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: Do you just hiring me because I got a Black 419 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: Lives Matter on? You just told me I had to 420 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,440 Speaker 1: go home because I gotta do it off. I'm not. 421 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 1: I'm not because I'm standing off with what what's right? 422 00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: I'm not taking it off, Tammy said, with whatever matters, 423 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: she did not. She said it had to be pray. 424 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: You can't bring politics into the bro I'm not bringing 425 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: politics in. This is what I'm standing for like, how 426 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: does this considered politics? How is it not? Denzel? I'm 427 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,919 Speaker 1: not taking it off. Okay, well then there's nothing I 428 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:52,720 Speaker 1: can do for I'm just doing my job. You don't 429 00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: get it. You don't either, I don't know you don't 430 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: because you did, this wouldn't be a problem. It's not 431 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: that a problem with me. It's a company thing. She's right, 432 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: he's wrong in calling her a Karen is racist and idiotic. 433 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: So Taco Bell is on the defensive though they've released 434 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: a statement, um trying and blah blah blah. You know 435 00:25:19,440 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 1: the things all these people say, and uh, some of 436 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: social media is and great Taco Bell, and you know 437 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:27,080 Speaker 1: how these things work. I know how these things. But 438 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: the main reason I want to play this is this 439 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,959 Speaker 1: is coming to wherever you work. It just is so 440 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: I probably out to have a plan in place. That's 441 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: a pretty good idea. Because somebody's gonna wear Black Lives 442 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: Matter something or other. You're gonna say our policy is 443 00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,399 Speaker 1: no politics, and they're gonna say, how is this politics? 444 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: They're gonna you're gonna say it like she did, how 445 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 1: is it not? But and then you will have employees 446 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:52,879 Speaker 1: with Blue Lives Matter and white lives matter, and you 447 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 1: will have employees with mega masks or hats or whatever, 448 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: and and god knows what else. I don't know. But 449 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 1: if he's still alive, that's the T shirt I wear. 450 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,919 Speaker 1: Do we have our Biden if he's still alive clips, 451 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 1: Holy cow, If Grandpa, if I gave him a birthday 452 00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: present he said it like that, I think, Oh my golly, 453 00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: he's really weakened anyway on the Black Lives Matter thing. 454 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter if you can you can present these 455 00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: other political causes that you would not allow in the 456 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,440 Speaker 1: workplace for obvious reasons. And uh, it doesn't make any 457 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 1: difference if if the you know, if the wind is 458 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 1: blowing towards everything Black Lives matter is okay, You're You're 459 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 1: done as a company. You can't. You gotta you gotta 460 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,479 Speaker 1: allow that, or at least you'll be battered. Now, if 461 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:49,920 Speaker 1: somebody actually like tries to turn this into a court case, 462 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, maybe that'll get worked out in the courts 463 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 1: at some point, Like if a lawyer takes up for 464 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: this guy for for for losing his job for wearing 465 00:26:56,480 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 1: the Black Lives Matter thing. Um, see how court rules 466 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: on that. I guess is a company allowed to say 467 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 1: no politics, no political anything in the workplace. Yes, absolutely, 468 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,800 Speaker 1: as long as it's uniform, as long as they apply 469 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: it even handedly to all people and all political beliefs. 470 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:21,399 Speaker 1: That is the one perfectly defensible position. Has that already 471 00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: been established? Than you just wear what where, what you want? Yeah, 472 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: because it will damage your business, Yeah, that would your 473 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 1: business would be never because you're gonna end up somebody 474 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 1: the black Lives matter. Then somebody else is gonna wear Uh, 475 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: what's what's an opposite of black Lives matter? All in 476 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 1: all Lives Matter? Somebody else wears an all Lives Matter 477 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 1: T shirt? Well, there they're If they're not actually fistfighting 478 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: in the in the cubicles, then then you can fire 479 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: them for fistfighting. But what if they do? Okay, but 480 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:49,879 Speaker 1: if they don't fist fight and they just hate each other, 481 00:27:49,880 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: and I'm not sure that helps Your am not allowed 482 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 1: to hate my coworker, And that'd be a new thing, 483 00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,960 Speaker 1: would I. I don't think it's good for for a 484 00:27:57,040 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: spree to corps. Well I don't know whether know. I 485 00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 1: don't even need to go there. You can come up 486 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 1: with a hundred examples of legitimate political beliefs that'd be 487 00:28:07,119 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 1: tough if you weren't allowed to hate your coworkers that 488 00:28:08,880 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 1: there's some sort of tests I have to quit. I'd 489 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 1: have to put every job. Yeah, then there'd be no jobs. 490 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: I mean, come to have your bank employees were in 491 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: a hat to bring down capitalism as they meet with 492 00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: all of your your corporate customers. End capitalism. Now, capitalism 493 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,399 Speaker 1: is thievery whatever, it's no, no, no is the answer. 494 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:36,199 Speaker 1: You can't. I wish you could open a business and 495 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: do your experiment of allowing people to wear political stuff 496 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:40,840 Speaker 1: and see how it works out. Well. I feel it 497 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: would somewhat sort itself out regionally, right, like whatever your 498 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: individual stores customer base would handle or tolerate. I think 499 00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: you could build your policies around matt um right, so 500 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: you'd be much more likely to see a MAGA hat 501 00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: or in all right in in in in Trump states, 502 00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: and then you're more likely to see the Black Lives 503 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: Matter stuff in in your Blue states. But you're gonna 504 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: have one employee that wants to wear Black Lives Matter 505 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: in the Trump States. I'm not sure I like this. Uh, 506 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: it's unfair. Yeah, it's unfair framing. Let's all agree with that. 507 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:13,680 Speaker 1: But um uh. If it was the name of my 508 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: art shop. I tell people it was gonna be sixty 509 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 1: dollars to frame their family portrait. And I'm charging three 510 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,479 Speaker 1: like the unfair framing, or I have a better price. 511 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,760 Speaker 1: I'm cheaper than everybody else. We only get three sides 512 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: on the frame and the fourth one do you do 513 00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 1: you it's another hundred dollars. This is unfair. Well did 514 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: you see the sign outside get unfair framing? We are 515 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: give me much your back. It's my I own it. 516 00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: You should have read the contract. You put mustaches on 517 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: all the people. Why did you do that? I do 518 00:29:49,200 --> 00:30:11,400 Speaker 1: whatever I want. It's unfair framing the armstrong and getting 519 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 1: show before we revisit old Joe Biden. Joe Biden came 520 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 1: across this with a picture of Kim Jong UN's sister. 521 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: I probably should know her name at this point do 522 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: we know her name? Doesn't matter? Kim Jong UN's sister 523 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: puts the cute back and execute That's what who wants? 524 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: Who asked for a joke? Is a brutal dictatorship. She's 525 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: got to be the cutest evil dictator of all time. 526 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: Unless're gonna go back to some sort of queen or 527 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: something that I don't know what they look like, but 528 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: no Jong. I think her name is Um. It's not 529 00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: clear to me exactly how um yeah, how powerful she is? 530 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: What what are what's her portfolio? As they say, I 531 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: don't know, Um, we might find out. Uh So Joe 532 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: Biden came out of his hole yesterday and did a 533 00:31:09,640 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: little talking. I I'm not um as dismissive of that 534 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: as a lot of people are. I think it's a 535 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 1: sound strategy for running for president. I think it's the 536 00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 1: smart thing to do. If I was an advisor and 537 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:26,320 Speaker 1: wanted him to be president, it's what I would be advising. Um. 538 00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 1: I think you just make it for for a certain 539 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:32,240 Speaker 1: segment of voter out there. You just try to portray 540 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: it as there's got to be something better than this 541 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: with Trump, That's what I would do. Yeah, and allow 542 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: no negatives in any time you have your candy to 543 00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: come out. There's a possibility of negatives. If your girlfriend's 544 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: dating you another guy and he's making a complete ass 545 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,040 Speaker 1: of himself, and that's you know the perception of Trump 546 00:31:47,080 --> 00:31:50,200 Speaker 1: by some people that you just don't say word. Don't 547 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: let him dig his own grave. As they say, of 548 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 1: course you know, it depends who he asked. Anyway, he 549 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: came out and gave a little speech yesterday and this 550 00:31:57,280 --> 00:32:06,360 Speaker 1: was his big rara, finish American. He's a president who 551 00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: do the work. I'm ready in day one after more 552 00:32:11,880 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: than three years in office. Why isn't Donald Trump ready? 553 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:25,320 Speaker 1: Mr President? Wake up, get to work. There's so much 554 00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:39,440 Speaker 1: more to be done. Thank you. I've heard that much. Well, 555 00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: it was weird at the beginning. That weird how he 556 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 1: runs the runs the sentences together. I'm ready to go 557 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,000 Speaker 1: after three years in office? Why aren't you, Mr President? 558 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, yeah, I know. It's confusing. I 559 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 1: didn't know what he was talking about anything, but uh, 560 00:32:54,920 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: that is that makes Jeb Bush seemed like Richard Simmons. Yeah, wow, 561 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: that's they're going for mellow. I think because we've been 562 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: talking about this, how the modern pace and the constant 563 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 1: conflict in the screaming headlines, and and let's face it, 564 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: Trump keeps things stirred up. He doesn't intentionally, it's just 565 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: he gets a little exhausting after a while, and so 566 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:23,959 Speaker 1: they're going for calming. Steady old Joe Biden, you know, 567 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 1: as the expression goes, I think they told him to 568 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,680 Speaker 1: take to aspert and he took the whole bottle. Yeah, 569 00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:30,760 Speaker 1: but there's you know, that's slowing down the pace. But 570 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:37,479 Speaker 1: he can't have a heart rate of eleven? Was that 571 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 1: the death rattle? I heard gimony? Get him on a respiate. 572 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 1: Somebody texts that he's got t MB too many birthdays. 573 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh Joe Biden, tell you what he must 574 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: have been something before electricity. Huh uh. So if he 575 00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: does that, anything within a hundred miles of that on 576 00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:02,360 Speaker 1: a debate stage, that could change the polls overnight, assuming 577 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:04,400 Speaker 1: they have debates, assume they have face to face debate. 578 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I just got a call. I'm 579 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: playing in the Gulf Tournament this weekend. They asked me 580 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 1: if I'm willing to ride in a cart with my partner. 581 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:15,359 Speaker 1: We're driving there together, we hang out all the time. 582 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,560 Speaker 1: I said yes. They said, now we have plastic dividers 583 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:19,280 Speaker 1: we can put right down the middle of the cart 584 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,560 Speaker 1: if you like. That's that's not necessary. So maybe they'll 585 00:34:22,560 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: put Trump and Biden in plastic boxes. Might come up 586 00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: like there's some sort of game show. Hi, uh, this 587 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,200 Speaker 1: is a corn pop. When I'm not trying to get 588 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: my razor Rusty and a rain barrel. I listened to 589 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: final thoughts with Armstrong and Giddy. I see that I 590 00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 1: had no idea corn Pop was still around. Here's your 591 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: host for final lots, Joe. Let's get a final thought 592 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,440 Speaker 1: from everybody on the crew. He presses the buttons in 593 00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 1: the control room, keeps us on the air. Michaelang final Yeah, 594 00:34:51,200 --> 00:34:53,400 Speaker 1: every time I eat at cholupa from Taco bell I 595 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: feel like I'm standing in Mexico City. There that authentic, 596 00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: nice positive Sean, our producer, final thought for I've been 597 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: trying to get the coronavirus and a a body test for 598 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 1: about a week now. Every place I've gone to so 599 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:08,280 Speaker 1: far starts with a questionnaire that figures out how likely 600 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:09,799 Speaker 1: you are to have it, and I've been denied every 601 00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,439 Speaker 1: time because I've been answering, honestly, So it's not even 602 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: these testing numbers were getting an increased cases. They are 603 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: only testing likely people. So it's even a higher number 604 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: than the silly number than we've I don't know if 605 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 1: I'm making my point. Yeah, yeah, yeah, when you consider 606 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: asymptomatic and yeah, so much is still unknown. Jack a 607 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,200 Speaker 1: final thought for us. I'm wondering if the mask controversy 608 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:34,040 Speaker 1: is about to come back. As a couple of year, 609 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:38,280 Speaker 1: major states like California are looking at going statewide mandatory masks. 610 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: Are we going to get the whole? What was it 611 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: called the macho mask something or other? And uh, you 612 00:35:45,120 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: know people are refusing to do it, and it becomes 613 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 1: a symbol of your Yes, I would say that's coming 614 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:53,440 Speaker 1: in spades. Becomes a symbol of your politics, whether you 615 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 1: wear the mask or not. Yes. And there will be 616 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,920 Speaker 1: fist fights, there will be arrests, there will be mayhem. 617 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: I've seen humanity. I humanity, and I don't like humanity. 618 00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: My final thought will be this note from Thomas. We 619 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 1: just got Hey, Joe, you've become what you professed to dislike. 620 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:14,399 Speaker 1: You're a self serving, pompous jerk. Now fair criticism? Did 621 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:22,879 Speaker 1: they say around what comment or topic? No? No, that's fine.
