1
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:21,440
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Getty and now he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 3: Well kank dead here in California. This week they canceled

5
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 3: the governor's debate because some people were outraged at the

6
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,960
Speaker 3: top six candidates were all white, even though this is

7
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 3: what the people voted for, and the people are sixty

8
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,199
Speaker 3: two percent minority. Just because the top six candidates are

9
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,040
Speaker 3: all white, it doesn't mean there's no diversity. I mean,

10
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 3: I see all different types of people I don't want.

11
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 4: So I saw an interview on CNN with the professor

12
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 4: there at USC who came up with the formula that

13
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,520
Speaker 4: ended up being too white, so they canceled the He said,

14
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 4: I use the same formula that Harvard and Stanford and

15
00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 4: everybody's used for all kinds of elections. Every It's just

16
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 4: this is just how it turned out, right, right.

17
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,960
Speaker 1: What really happened was that they didn't have enough people

18
00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: who are going to be prostitutes to.

19
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,080
Speaker 2: The public employee unions.

20
00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,959
Speaker 1: So the powers that actually run California said, ick, snay,

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 1: we're not letting the moderates and the Steve Hiltons of

22
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:24,839
Speaker 1: the world get more at Chad Blanco. We're not letting

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,320
Speaker 1: him get more attention. That's almost certainly what happened.

24
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 4: Aren't they gonna get a Republican elected that way though?

25
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,960
Speaker 4: Continuing to split the vote so many different ways. You

26
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 4: get more people on the stage and act like they

27
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 4: have a chance to win.

28
00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: Well, again, it's not more people, it's the right people

29
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: from their perspective, because they're desperate to keep the kleptocracy going.

30
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: So more on that as it develops. But speaking cal Unicornia,

31
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,400
Speaker 1: then we're going to broaden very quickly. So hang with

32
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:55,120
Speaker 1: us no matter where you live. California's trying to get

33
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: that billionaire tax going. It's a disastrous idea. It's a

34
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: terrible idea for a number of different reasons. And the

35
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 1: golden goose is already flying the coop, as it were.

36
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: Do you keep gooses in coops? I don't know anyway.

37
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 1: The initiative, backed by the giant Public Employees union the SEIU,

38
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,640
Speaker 1: would impose a one time five percent tax on the wealth,

39
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,079
Speaker 1: the accumulated wealth, stocks and bonds.

40
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 4: It will be one it won't end up being one time,

41
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:26,920
Speaker 4: as we all know, because no taxes are but it

42
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,519
Speaker 4: will be one time in effect, because the billionaires were leave,

43
00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 4: so you won't get a chance to do it again.

44
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,680
Speaker 1: Indeed, quite a few have already left, costing many, many

45
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 1: hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenue that would

46
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,840
Speaker 1: have been coming in. Interestingly enough, but this is worth mentioning.

47
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 1: Even before the billionaire attacks was floated, the state was

48
00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: losing significant tax revenue as rich residents departed. And they

49
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: named Jack Larry Ellison, Elon Musk, Serge Ay Brinn, Larry Page,

50
00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,679
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg. All of these guys are either moving or

51
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 1: in the process of moving. Together, those five men accounted

52
00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:06,960
Speaker 1: for roughly one point seven out of the one point

53
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,919
Speaker 1: eight trillion dollars held by California's six richest residents earlier

54
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: in the decade. And they point out that in cal Unicornia.

55
00:03:18,440 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: Let's see where are those figures. Oh, first of all,

56
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 1: the Union is trying to claim that this will raise

57
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,440
Speaker 1: one hundred million. It's going to be probably closer to

58
00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 1: forty million because of taxpayer mobility.

59
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 4: So explain this to me, do they do they just

60
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 4: not believe it. The people that are pushing this, did

61
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 4: they not believe that the billionaires will leave.

62
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: No, they're not thinking about the long term at all.

63
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,880
Speaker 1: They just want the one time cash grab for themselves.

64
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,240
Speaker 1: It's horrific tax policy, it's idiotic, it's short term thinking.

65
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 2: But they don't care. They will just grab the cash

66
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 2: for themselves.

67
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,480
Speaker 1: So according to the LAO in California, listen to this,

68
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 1: which you and we've talked about this for years, as

69
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,440
Speaker 1: the show is based on out of California, But the

70
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 1: top one percent of tax payers generate what percentage of

71
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 1: the total income tax?

72
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: Would you guess it's going to be shocking.

73
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: One percent generate forty percent of the state's income.

74
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 4: Tax, when, as I always say, if that's not the

75
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,120
Speaker 4: fair share, what is what's the correct percentage for one

76
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 4: percent of people to pay of overall taxes?

77
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 1: If it's not, And from the Democrats perspective, that has

78
00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 1: one great after effect or result in one terrible one.

79
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:35,720
Speaker 1: The great one is that they can funnel whatever uh

80
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 1: you know, graft to their cronies they want because the

81
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: percentage of people who are actually paying the bulk of

82
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: the bill is so small, they can in fact order

83
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 1: anything they want for dinner. And the small percentage that

84
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 1: are paying the taxes are way too small to vote amount.

85
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 4: This is the argument that always needs to be pitched.

86
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,799
Speaker 4: I think a lot of people miss why you would

87
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:01,040
Speaker 4: care because you know about say, very few people are

88
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 4: in the one percent. I'd say roughly ninety nine percent

89
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,799
Speaker 4: of people are not in the one percent. The figures

90
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 4: check out.

91
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,000
Speaker 2: But for ninety nine percent of what you might think

92
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:10,800
Speaker 2: on what do I care?

93
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 4: The reason you have to care is because it leads

94
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,800
Speaker 4: to all kinds of stupid programs. Yeah, because you can't

95
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,559
Speaker 4: get the ninety nine percent. Aren't going to get worked

96
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 4: up about the bullet train or whatever if you're not

97
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:24,719
Speaker 4: paying for it, right, right, or if you expand it

98
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 4: to five percent, that covers virtually all of the income

99
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,279
Speaker 4: tax covered in California or collected rather so.

100
00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 1: Recently, congenital liar Gavin Newsom claimed that California is actually

101
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: more tax friendly than Florida.

102
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

103
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:42,919
Speaker 1: Texas and Florida are the real high tax states. California

104
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: has the most progressive tax race in America.

105
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, middle class pays more taxes than Texas.

106
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 1: Blah blah blah, and he went on and on. It's

107
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: a great mythology it's just the richest of the rich

108
00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: come here because they can't avoid paying a damn penny,

109
00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 1: he said of Texas, which is interesting. So a number

110
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:04,040
Speaker 1: of tax experts, in a nonpartisan way attacked this and said,

111
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,080
Speaker 1: all right, let's talk about how taxes actually work. And

112
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,760
Speaker 1: this is the part I found just interesting in a

113
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: non partisan way. Next segment, by the bye, the differences

114
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:18,040
Speaker 1: state to state in what it takes to be quote

115
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 1: unquote rich.

116
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 2: Found that very interesting. Anyway, So this.

117
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,840
Speaker 1: One tax expert says, I looked at how much each

118
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 1: state is taxing each of its citizens on average. So

119
00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:29,559
Speaker 1: if you look at California, they collect about ten thousand

120
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,119
Speaker 1: dollars a year in taxes for every person in the state.

121
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: Although again it's it's very progressive is the word, or uneven,

122
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 1: whereas the figure for Texas and Florida are not ten

123
00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: thousand dollars, they're about five thousand dollars, about half as much. However,

124
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: California is a higher income tax or a higher income state.

125
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: So I also looked at it as a percentage of

126
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: the state's economies, which is again, this is not partisan.

127
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,920
Speaker 1: This is trying to understand what's actually happening. Blah blah blah.

128
00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,400
Speaker 1: What I found is that California tax is about fourteen

129
00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:01,479
Speaker 1: percent of its economy as posed to nine percent for

130
00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,680
Speaker 1: Texas and Florida. So it's a smaller difference, but it's

131
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:08,720
Speaker 1: a pretty significant difference. Another organization broke those taxes down.

132
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 1: Recent study found the Californi imposes some of the highest

133
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,800
Speaker 1: taxes in the nation, top personal income tax rate of

134
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,400
Speaker 1: thirteen point three percent. Oh, Texas and Florida have no

135
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:18,440
Speaker 1: state income tax.

136
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: Man, that's a lot of money.

137
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: Let's look at property taxes in California. They account for

138
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 1: about two point eight percent of personal income, slightly lower

139
00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: than Texas at three point six percent and Florida at

140
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: two point six. Actually, it's bigger than Florida's, though measured

141
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,160
Speaker 1: as a share of home values, California's rates are generally

142
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,560
Speaker 1: lower than both states, But another at tax areas, California

143
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,880
Speaker 1: is largely more burdensome. The state's unemployment insurance tax rate

144
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:48,720
Speaker 1: matches Texas at six point two percent, but is higher

145
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: in Florida's five point four. California also has a higher

146
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: statewide sales tax at seven point two compared to six

147
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: point two in Texas.

148
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,640
Speaker 2: Six percent in Florida.

149
00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,560
Speaker 1: Drivers in California face significant lay higher gas taxes, as

150
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 1: any Californian can tell you, paying about seventy one cents

151
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: per gallon, more than triple Texas twenty percent, and well

152
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 1: above Florida is forty cents. Let's see wallet hub analysis

153
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: ranked US states by overall tax burden showed California coming

154
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 1: in at fourth overall, fourth highest behind Vermont, New York,

155
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:25,040
Speaker 1: in Hawaii on everything on a per capita basis, California

156
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: also collects significantly more in state and state and local

157
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 1: taxes according to data from the Tax Foundation. At the

158
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:35,000
Speaker 1: heart of the issue is the data, Mister Aggresti, one

159
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 1: of the experts, says, making the case the Newsom is

160
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,800
Speaker 1: likely pulling from a different organization which is widely used

161
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:44,320
Speaker 1: by mainstream media outlets and experts. Quo quote is fatally

162
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 1: flawed because it does not account for all forms of income.

163
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,000
Speaker 2: Or all taxes.

164
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,640
Speaker 1: Anyway, It's complicated and there's even more to this, believe

165
00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: it or not, But he said, Newsom is a master

166
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,679
Speaker 1: of twisting statistics to paint a picture that is the

167
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:01,240
Speaker 1: exact inverse of reality. Pointed to the governor's claim that

168
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 1: the exodus of residents due to high taxes is a myth. Well,

169
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,559
Speaker 1: you know, you don't need any counter factual as to that.

170
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:16,199
Speaker 1: The departure from California is partly taxes, politics, costs, crowdedness,

171
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,120
Speaker 1: one hundred different things.

172
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 4: As listening to a tax experts the other day explain

173
00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 4: all the advantages and how most economics economists agree and

174
00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:26,560
Speaker 4: I don't know if this is true or not.

175
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 2: This is what he said.

176
00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 4: Most economists agree on the fact that some sort of consumption.

177
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 2: Tax or whatever you want to call it.

178
00:09:33,120 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 4: You know, just having tax and things you buy would

179
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 4: be the best way to do it, to spread it around.

180
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 2: That's just you know, rich pew out of taxes.

181
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 4: Rich people buy more stuff or whatever, all the kinds,

182
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 4: and we just plane bring in more money and it

183
00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:50,320
Speaker 4: gets around all of the ways people can cheat the

184
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 4: system and not have to pay taxes, right because everybody's paying.

185
00:09:55,000 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 4: Doesn't matter if you're a drug dealer or illegal gambling

186
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,120
Speaker 4: or or whatever you are, you still pay that tax

187
00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,559
Speaker 4: when you go buy a car, or go out to

188
00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,719
Speaker 4: eat or whatever. Why is the US tax code so complicated?

189
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 4: Two answers.

190
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,400
Speaker 1: Number One, it's used as a social engineering tool sometimes

191
00:10:10,440 --> 00:10:13,720
Speaker 1: in ways that I like, helping families for instance. But

192
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,200
Speaker 1: mostly it's because people who have access to power twist

193
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 1: the tax code into ways that benefit them, period.

194
00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 4: And people are stupid because you can make it very

195
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 4: easy argument to people who aren't paying attention and don't

196
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 4: look into it, and they think, well, because then you

197
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 4: hear that a car will cost you know, thirty thousand

198
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:29,640
Speaker 4: dollars more than does not.

199
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 2: Well, then we can't do that, know, you moron?

200
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,320
Speaker 4: You aren't You buy a car once every five years,

201
00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:36,120
Speaker 4: and you are going to be paying any income tax.

202
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 2: It's all I know is a car more expensive, you know.

203
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 1: Finally, on this topic, these experts also take aim at

204
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,319
Speaker 1: the California has the fourth largest economy in the world,

205
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: and they say, you've got to engage in some serious

206
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:52,960
Speaker 1: occurrency exchange, you know, hoodwinking to get that number.

207
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 2: It's not always I've always wondered about that. No, it's

208
00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: not true. Sure gets thrown around.

209
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,640
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, yeah, I don't want to get into the

210
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 1: technical aspects of it, but it's it's it's misleading.

211
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 2: Uh.

212
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: And so next segment, I want to at least touch

213
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 1: on exactly how much money it takes to be rich

214
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: in every US states, in every US state, and how

215
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 1: much those people the top five percent specifically make as

216
00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 1: multiples of the median income in their state.

217
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 4: And the latest on Tiger Woods, who lives in the

218
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:30,360
Speaker 4: state of inebriation, sidewalks Tiger's behind the wheel again.

219
00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 2: So start Tiger, I hear you stigret.

220
00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: What you were about to hear? Before we get to

221
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: the how much it takes to be rich? Is a

222
00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 1: gentleman in his car telling dad jokes and his pet

223
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 1: hyena reacts to the joke. He's got a pet hyena.

224
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:55,400
Speaker 1: There are so many questions, but first the audio.

225
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,960
Speaker 2: Did you know what's about? A dog from a blacksmith?

226
00:11:58,200 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 2: As soon as we got it home.

227
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:05,600
Speaker 5: It made a bolt for the door, accidentally sprayed axe

228
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 5: body sprand in my mouth.

229
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 2: I talked with an accent.

230
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,119
Speaker 5: Daddy, have you heard of the new movie called Constipation?

231
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 5: Hasn't come out yet?

232
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,479
Speaker 2: Daddy? Do you know I have a fear of German sausages?

233
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 2: I always fear the worst.

234
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: Why every video needs overly loud music in the water

235
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: modern world, I don't get. But okay, let's start with Wait,

236
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: you have a pet hyena?

237
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 4: I had an accent? What can you have a pet hyena?

238
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 2: Is that a thing? Check your local ordinances. I would

239
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,360
Speaker 2: think much state to stay. I would think at some

240
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 2: point it would rip your neck open.

241
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, you think I'm seeing they can't truly be domesticated,

242
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 4: so you're kind of I saw that picture. I mean,

243
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 4: people have pet wolves and they often get eaten by them.

244
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 2: But did he actually have a hyena sitting in the

245
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: back seat of his car?

246
00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 1: In the front seat of his car, and the thing

247
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 1: when it makes that noise, throws its head back like

248
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:24,079
Speaker 1: it's laughing. It was hilariously funny, but again more questions

249
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 1: than answered.

250
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 4: And they're both they're both wearing little beanies until it

251
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:28,640
Speaker 4: eats the neighbor kid.

252
00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: It's hilarious.

253
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:34,520
Speaker 1: Lord, somebody turned on the lights it got dark in here,

254
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 1: and how did he get it to make that noise?

255
00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 2: On cue?

256
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,520
Speaker 1: Because I don't think it gets the jokes.

257
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,400
Speaker 2: I think it just understands corny humor.

258
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: Wow, that was odd. All right, we'll post the video

259
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:52,439
Speaker 1: so you can enjoy it. What under hot lengths, Katie, or.

260
00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,600
Speaker 2: I'll make a separate post so it's easy to find.

261
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,680
Speaker 1: Okay at Armstrong and geddy dot com. Show it to

262
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 1: your kids before the hyena eats them anyway. So how

263
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 1: much money it takes to be rich in every US state?

264
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,199
Speaker 1: For instance, what could make you a fat cat in

265
00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:09,520
Speaker 1: Kentucky makes you middle class in Massachusetts is fairly easy

266
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: to understand.

267
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 4: I don't want to bog you down, but what is

268
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 4: the boss got? What's the standard for rich? A top

269
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 4: five percent of income?

270
00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:23,080
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, in each state in Connecticut, which stops the country,

271
00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 1: and the amount of money required to be a top earner,

272
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 1: average income of the top five percent is seven times

273
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 1: the median income. But what's interesting is that figure is

274
00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 1: very consistent among the states. For instance, in West Virginia,

275
00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,320
Speaker 1: which ranks lowest for the dollar amount it takes to

276
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,200
Speaker 1: be rich, at three hundred and forty five, about three

277
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: hundred forty six thousand dollars is nearly six times higher

278
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: than the median income, which is sixty one thousand dollars.

279
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: And again it's remarkably consistent. Your top state, again is Connecticut.

280
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: You got to earn six hundred and ninety two thousand

281
00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: dollars to be in the top five percent.

282
00:14:57,920 --> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 2: Woaf wow.

283
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 1: New York, Massachusetts, cal Unicornia six hundred and thirty three thousand,

284
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 1: dollars to be in the top five percent.

285
00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 2: Then New Jersey, Washington.

286
00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 1: If anybody has a particular interest in any of these states,

287
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,520
Speaker 1: stopped me. I was going to hit, you know, just

288
00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 1: a sampling Indiana, Well, hang on a second, Washington state

289
00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: where the Armstrong Egetty show is huge, six hundred and

290
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 1: thirteen thousand. Well, Colorado, Hawaii, Maryland will get to don't

291
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: say Indiana again, Virginia, New Hampshire, Illinois of five hundred

292
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,240
Speaker 1: and twenty seven thousand, and then you got Florida at

293
00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:38,440
Speaker 1: five thirteen Tayjas, let's see Nevada. You gotta make a

294
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 1: four hundred and ninety nine grand I wonder what that

295
00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out what. I wonder what that

296
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:47,440
Speaker 1: stat means. I understand technically what it means, but what

297
00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: it means about your Yeah, well, go ahead and finish

298
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: the thought if you want so.

299
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:56,120
Speaker 4: If you're if you're in the top five percent, I

300
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 4: understand why you'd consider that rich. You're in the top

301
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 4: five percent of your state. But are there's states where

302
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,680
Speaker 4: being in the top five percent and you're still living

303
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:03,880
Speaker 4: a pretty modest lifestyle.

304
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:04,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

305
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: Yes.

306
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 2: See, one of the when we started barely talking about weather.

307
00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 1: California is the fourth biggest economy in the world, and

308
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 1: I was talking about how Japan's actually got a much

309
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: bigger economy. There's an economic thing where if you assess

310
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 1: the size of an economy based on what you can

311
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:24,320
Speaker 1: do with the money you.

312
00:16:24,280 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: Earn in that economy.

313
00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 1: For instance, if you know, you know the Republican Joe

314
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: Gettysville has an economy that's a third the size of

315
00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:39,240
Speaker 1: the United States, But that one third income that I

316
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: earned there gets me everything A triple that size income

317
00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 1: would get me in the United States, same house, same car,

318
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 1: same lifestyle. Then who actually has a bigger economy quote

319
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:52,400
Speaker 1: unquote for domestic reasons anyway, So your bottom five states,

320
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: your your poorest states, New Mexico, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississipi, and

321
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,120
Speaker 1: again West Virginia where three hundred and forty five, and

322
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: I'll get you in the top five percent. Three forty

323
00:17:03,040 --> 00:17:07,720
Speaker 1: five compared to number one Connecticut, which again is virtually

324
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 1: seven hundred thousand.

325
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,800
Speaker 4: So sportscaster celebrity Stephen A. Smith talking about running for

326
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 4: president as a Democrat. I don't know if his trans

327
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:17,120
Speaker 4: views will work.

328
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,679
Speaker 1: We got some of that coming up Armstrong and Getty.

329
00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 4: So baseball season's underway and the Los Angeles Dodgers, two

330
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,439
Speaker 4: time defending champion, are among a handful of teams that

331
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 4: are three and zero. But somehow the conversation got started

332
00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,560
Speaker 4: that they might win one hundred and twenty games this year,

333
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 4: which would break the all time record, which sits at

334
00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 4: one hundred and sixteen.

335
00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 2: The Mariners did it in two thousand and one, then

336
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:46,320
Speaker 2: lost in the first round.

337
00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:50,119
Speaker 1: The Cubs did it in nineteen oh six. God, I

338
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: remember that that was a great season.

339
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 4: How many games did even play back then? I mean

340
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 4: as a percentage that's gonna be anyway. I don't know

341
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:58,440
Speaker 4: if the Dodgers will win one hundred and twenty. And

342
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,760
Speaker 4: we also got the modern world where you sit your

343
00:18:00,760 --> 00:18:02,920
Speaker 4: stars if you get ahead. But AnyWho want to mention

344
00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,080
Speaker 4: this the uh I don't know if you saw the

345
00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:08,960
Speaker 4: video of the fight in the stands that happened to

346
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 4: two women fighting in the stands, that was pretty good. Bennyway,

347
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,399
Speaker 4: somebody brought up the idea of the seventy five hundred

348
00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 4: dollars show. Heyo tani souvenir cup, Well, you get seventy

349
00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:22,360
Speaker 4: five hundred dollars. No, I'm sorry, seventy five dollars. Seventy

350
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:24,200
Speaker 4: five dollars plastic cup.

351
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:24,920
Speaker 2: You do get.

352
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 4: Flip free refills? Ooh during the game, Well, thank you

353
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 4: for that. Well there was such an outcry over that

354
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,040
Speaker 4: over the first couple of games that they changed the

355
00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 4: policy and now you're going to get refills the entire season.

356
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 4: Still seventy five dollars for a plastic cup. Now, if

357
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,639
Speaker 4: you drink a lot of pop and you need to

358
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,960
Speaker 4: at the game, I suppose you come out ahead at

359
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:46,359
Speaker 4: some point if you go to a lot of games,

360
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 4: because what's it cost eight bucks to get a couple

361
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:50,840
Speaker 4: one cent sugar water?

362
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 6: How about the testicles on the I guess if you're

363
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,800
Speaker 6: gonna have all the most expensive players in the world,

364
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 6: you got to charge seventy five dollars for a plastic cup.

365
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: That says ODMI. Well, and they're so easy to produce.

366
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:07,439
Speaker 2: It reminds me of internet scams.

367
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 1: Why don't we see if somebody will pay seventy five

368
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: bucks for this cop?

369
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:11,719
Speaker 2: Is I see him for?

370
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:20,399
Speaker 4: I suppose anyway, Speaking of sports, one of the biggest

371
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 4: names in sports, if not the biggest name in sports announcing,

372
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:23,680
Speaker 4: is Stephen A.

373
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 2: Smith.

374
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 4: He's been a giant dealing ESPN for a very long time.

375
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,399
Speaker 4: In his hot takes and his strong opinions, he keeps

376
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 4: seriously talking about running for president on the Democrat side,

377
00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:38,679
Speaker 4: like he's seriously looking into it. And I mean, he's

378
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,800
Speaker 4: certainly got the verbal game, no doubt about that.

379
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 2: He stepped out of.

380
00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,680
Speaker 4: He stepped out of the main stream of Democrats running

381
00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 4: for president, but into the mainstream of Democrats that exist

382
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,720
Speaker 4: in the country by taking a strong stance on the

383
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 4: whole trans thing with Bill Maher on Friday Night on

384
00:19:58,680 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 4: the HBO Show.

385
00:19:59,440 --> 00:19:59,800
Speaker 2: Here's how it.

386
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 3: The Olympics have said they are not allowing trans women

387
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 3: anymore competing in women's sports.

388
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 7: If this is an issue within the Democratic part, that's

389
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:12,240
Speaker 7: their own damn problem. Biological men should not be competing

390
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 7: against biological girls in sports.

391
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:22,640
Speaker 2: Pretty. I am a supporter of the LGBTQ plus community.

392
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 7: I don't want to get in the way of anybody's

393
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,520
Speaker 7: civil rights, civil liberties or anything like that. But what

394
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,560
Speaker 7: about protecting your young ladies, young ladies going up against men,

395
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,280
Speaker 7: but you know, biological men, there is no excuse for that.

396
00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 4: So I freaking hope he runs just because it would

397
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 4: perhaps drag the party closer to the sane side with

398
00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 4: him saying that. But he goes on either way. You

399
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,199
Speaker 4: know what you could be.

400
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,919
Speaker 7: You know Liam Thomas, for example, was you know, was

401
00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 7: a male and he.

402
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,880
Speaker 2: Was rank like a swimmer, Yeah, a swimmer.

403
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 7: He was ranking like over four hundredth in the world.

404
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 7: She and then she and then he became a she. Okay,

405
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 7: he became you know, transition and number one. Well, dann

406
00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 7: it does it really take an Einstein to realize that

407
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:06,160
Speaker 7: this something work?

408
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 2: I mean we kidding.

409
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,320
Speaker 3: I say nocause we're talking forts because that's my lane.

410
00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 2: And I'm telling you there is no reason for a.

411
00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 7: Biological male to be competing in women's sports. We certainly

412
00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:22,119
Speaker 7: don't see biological women transitioning and tron to compete in

413
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:22,880
Speaker 7: men's sports.

414
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:26,600
Speaker 2: I don't tell you about that, so does The crowd?

415
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,080
Speaker 4: Is the crowd the sort of people that just show

416
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 4: up and are going to cheer for anything anybody says,

417
00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 4: no matter what.

418
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,119
Speaker 2: I don't know how sheepish they all are, well, they

419
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 2: they they're cheering.

420
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:40,920
Speaker 1: Represents the vast majority of saying human beings.

421
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,360
Speaker 4: Right, I'm sure that's true even in the Democratic Party,

422
00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 4: but it is you know, the La crowd, any who

423
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 4: don't any booze or anything like that.

424
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,800
Speaker 2: And then Bill Maher asks the obvious.

425
00:21:51,400 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 3: Question when the Democratic debates come, Yeah, is there one

426
00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 3: candidate on that stage who's going to be clear like this,

427
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 3: who's going to just say it outright like that exactly?

428
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 3: And that's why they're going to be vulnerable.

429
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 2: That's why they've been vulnerable. Yeah. Correct, He's right.

430
00:22:09,040 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 4: You think you think they're gonna keep going down that road.

431
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,440
Speaker 4: I mean, I know they attacked Gavin Newsom for making

432
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 4: a wishy washy he didn't even take a stance position

433
00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:19,919
Speaker 4: on the whole thing, right.

434
00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:23,640
Speaker 1: Well, the left, the Twitter left, he should just completely

435
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 1: ignore that. I mean, maybe it's because he grew up

436
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:30,000
Speaker 1: in the Bay Area talking about Gavin Newsom. Maybe it's

437
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,439
Speaker 1: because he grew up in the Bay Area and he's

438
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 1: lived in California for so long. How does he not

439
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 1: recognize that's not the mainstream. Of course, you got to

440
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 1: get the nomination.

441
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:39,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's that.

442
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 1: I was about to say, I need to know more

443
00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:45,159
Speaker 1: about like poll results among the core Democratic primary voters,

444
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,439
Speaker 1: because they are a weird beast on average compared to

445
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:50,520
Speaker 1: the average American.

446
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 4: I just can't believe that there aren't powerbrokers in the

447
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,480
Speaker 4: Democratic Party, whether it Drama Manuel or you know, if

448
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,160
Speaker 4: Gavin Gavin Newsom has to know this or somebody and say, look,

449
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,359
Speaker 4: we're never gonna win a national election again with this

450
00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 4: ridiculous transstance, all right, or free health care for illegals.

451
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:11,159
Speaker 4: It just we can't ever win this this, so we

452
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 4: gotta quit getting on stage having somebody ask show of hands,

453
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,040
Speaker 4: who thinks all illegals should get free health care?

454
00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:19,160
Speaker 2: And we all raise our hand. We're not gonna win

455
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 2: that way.

456
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 1: I don't know.

457
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 4: I just can't believe that there aren't more of the powerful,

458
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,199
Speaker 4: like the people that control the money or something.

459
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 2: Who doesn't say that out loud?

460
00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that just shows you the extent to which

461
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: that that adamant, vicious minority can just cow people into silence.

462
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 1: That first clip put no way men should compete against

463
00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: women and women's sports again. I picture somebody waking up

464
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:46,200
Speaker 1: from a coma after like ten years and saying, wait

465
00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: a minute, what, well, right, but why are we even

466
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:50,880
Speaker 1: talking about this?

467
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 2: Right? What's next? Should grown men be allowed to dominate

468
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: Little League? What are you even talking about? Yeah, you'd

469
00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,000
Speaker 2: have to explain it to them and they would not believe.

470
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,480
Speaker 2: Leave you, I haven't.

471
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,720
Speaker 1: Don't let these people compel you to say something you

472
00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 1: know not to be true. A man can become a woman,

473
00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,679
Speaker 1: and that that and that makes that person a woman.

474
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 2: God. I hope he.

475
00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,920
Speaker 4: I hope he runs because I think I think he'd

476
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,000
Speaker 4: be able to get on whatever stage. I think he'd

477
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,360
Speaker 4: get enough support, particularly from the black community, to get

478
00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:29,480
Speaker 4: on whatever stage. And then you know, somebody boo him dead,

479
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 4: naming Lea Thomas or whatever the way he just did.

480
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,960
Speaker 4: He'd be like, what are you talking about? And politicians

481
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,080
Speaker 4: are cowards.

482
00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:42,680
Speaker 1: There is very little leadership, very little moral leadership these days.

483
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,480
Speaker 2: But if somebody like Stephen A. Smith could take the.

484
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: Bullets and and and as they say in UH politics,

485
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 1: grant the permission structure too for other people to start

486
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,080
Speaker 1: saying it out loud, even that would be useful. I

487
00:24:58,200 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: think I think he can ask me just disgusted me.

488
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 4: But I think you can get on a stage and

489
00:25:04,080 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 4: just say we're never gonna win another election.

490
00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 2: As long as we have this ridiculous position.

491
00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:13,520
Speaker 1: Oh please, Steven, I'll donate money to your candidacy.

492
00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,359
Speaker 2: And he and roma Manuel at high five.

493
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then probably walk off the stage before they

494
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: even got to Iowa at some point because the party

495
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:23,560
Speaker 1: wouldn't let them win.

496
00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 4: I don't know, I don't know. I gotta believe those

497
00:25:26,040 --> 00:25:28,080
Speaker 4: days are over. I really think they are.

498
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:32,959
Speaker 1: But yeah, yeah, coming up next hour, I'm pretty excited

499
00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: about this. We're going to take another look at the

500
00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: No King's rally, which were successful, because I checked this morning,

501
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:41,840
Speaker 1: we don't have a king in the United States. So

502
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:46,360
Speaker 1: way to go, everybody with your weak act group therapy

503
00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 1: section session raw rah. We're all together on like eleven

504
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,439
Speaker 1: different causes, but the one thing we know is we

505
00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: all hate Trump and conservatives are fascists, ridiculous protest and

506
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 1: who's the money behind a lot of these protests that

507
00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:02,320
Speaker 1: I guarantee you'll find it.

508
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:04,879
Speaker 4: Oh I don't know that story. Oh yeah cool? And

509
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,880
Speaker 4: we have breaking share news so.

510
00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:11,480
Speaker 1: All of that, didn't Tiger Woods run share over all

511
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:12,640
Speaker 1: of that just tint.

512
00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 2: Of your business.

513
00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, stay here. I know we all had the same

514
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:27,119
Speaker 4: question over the weekend. Is Share married? She's allergies? She

515
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 4: her fighting fiance are denying it, although they are engaged

516
00:26:32,600 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 4: and they're supposed to get married in March, and March

517
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 4: is almost over. Share is an eighty year old pop

518
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 4: singer Alexander Edwards is a thirty nine year old nut job.

519
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:47,200
Speaker 4: As far as I can tell, sounds like a nice pairing.

520
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 4: I mean, they do have a forty year age gap,

521
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:54,120
Speaker 4: so I don't know who knows, who knows what goes

522
00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 4: on and things like that. I just I can't even imagine.

523
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 4: I was watching part of a reality show that it was.

524
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 4: It's like a dating thing, like The Bachelor Bachelorette on Netflix,

525
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,520
Speaker 4: and I saw half of the first episode for some reason,

526
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 4: and it was a bunch of singles got together. But

527
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,120
Speaker 4: you keep your age a secret, and some of them

528
00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 4: are quite a bit older and some of them are

529
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,360
Speaker 4: quite young, and you talk to each other and it's

530
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 4: hard to tell, and it's all about guessing how old

531
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:24,080
Speaker 4: because they.

532
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 2: You can't really tell because it's a lot of hot.

533
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 2: Everybody's hot, right.

534
00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 4: It's just all the people talking about finally finding true

535
00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 4: love and this and that. And they seem sincere.

536
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 2: So you went to a game show. They know what

537
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:41,480
Speaker 2: they're getting to be on camera. I don't know, they're

538
00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:42,840
Speaker 2: all so wacky.

539
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 4: I think they are sincere because half of them seem

540
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 4: like nuts, like actual crazy people, so I think they

541
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 4: are sincere.

542
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 2: They could just de liberty couplings.

543
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 1: I forgot to mention when we were talking about Tiger

544
00:27:55,119 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: Woods that he's with a Trump right now, his girl

545
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:04,880
Speaker 1: into some bucksome beautiful, middle aged Trump cast off.

546
00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 2: Well she was.

547
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,920
Speaker 4: She was married to UH or with uh Trump Junior,

548
00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:11,720
Speaker 4: Donald Trump Junior or Eric Trump, one of them.

549
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:17,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I say, they they leave, they leave beautiful

550
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 1: women behind them. Like I don't know, car leaves exhaust

551
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:22,119
Speaker 1: behind it.

552
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: I think she left him. Either way, it doesn't make

553
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:25,280
Speaker 2: sure enough.

554
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 4: Got this text from a cop about the whole Tiger

555
00:28:32,119 --> 00:28:33,800
Speaker 4: Woods thing. Might as well hit you with it here,

556
00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:36,160
Speaker 4: because I'm really hoping he spends time in jail. He's

557
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:39,520
Speaker 4: gonna It's amazing he hasn't wiped somebody out and killed him.

558
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 4: Somebody on their bike on up, you know, when he's

559
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,800
Speaker 4: going around on those corners at eighty miles an hour

560
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:49,280
Speaker 4: and rolls his vehicles. Selfish scumbag. Anyway, we got this

561
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,600
Speaker 4: text as a retired cop. If Florida is anything like California,

562
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 4: Tiger will likely see zero jail time his injury in

563
00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,360
Speaker 4: the first incident. Doesn't elevate the charge only in to

564
00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,360
Speaker 4: other people count for that. Between diversion programs and the

565
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,719
Speaker 4: soft on crime nature of society in general right now,

566
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 4: people just don't see serious consequences outside of financial these

567
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,080
Speaker 4: days for DUI, and that doesn't matter to him until

568
00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 4: you start getting hit with felony DUIs. Even then, I've

569
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 4: seen people get probation only after killing people.

570
00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: So it's pretty hard to end up in jail on

571
00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:23,960
Speaker 2: a DUI, I guess.

572
00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 4: And yeah, I think what scares a lot of people

573
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 4: about DUIs is the cost, what it does to your insurance.

574
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,400
Speaker 2: And all that sort of stuff. But you know, obviously

575
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 2: that's a non factor for Tiger Woods.

576
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:40,000
Speaker 1: Right right, I mean it's worth doing the the comparison

577
00:29:40,040 --> 00:29:44,360
Speaker 1: where what if I faced, say a ten thousand dollars fine,

578
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: what would that fine have to be given Tiger's net worth,

579
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,240
Speaker 1: which is so many multiples of mine's not even worth discussing?

580
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,760
Speaker 2: Certainly have to be a millionaire more, right.

581
00:29:55,400 --> 00:30:00,240
Speaker 1: It might have to be fifty million, because where that's

582
00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: one point five billion dollars, so that's one hundred million

583
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 1: times fifteen, right.

584
00:30:06,960 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 4: A million dollars isn't going to change his behavior, right, interesting.

585
00:30:13,160 --> 00:30:14,640
Speaker 4: How much time I got, Michael, do I have time

586
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 4: for this or not? I used up all my time

587
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:17,040
Speaker 4: talking about share.

588
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 2: You got five minutes?

589
00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:21,959
Speaker 4: Okay, So that's the first time I've ever said that sentence.

590
00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,240
Speaker 4: This is from sixty Minutes last night. Found it fascinating.

591
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,960
Speaker 8: The traditional front line in Ukraine has expanded to a

592
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 8: roughly ten mile wide strip called the kill Zone. Anyone

593
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,560
Speaker 8: who sets foot there can be spotted by a drone

594
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 8: operator and hunted down. This was a narrow escape for

595
00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:53,040
Speaker 8: some Ukrainian soldiers.

596
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 4: The feature of the second story in sixty Minutes was

597
00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 4: all about the drone war between Russia and Ukraine. And

598
00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 4: we've been followed the war at all, we're probably aware

599
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 4: of this. And they emphasized how the entire way war

600
00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:13,880
Speaker 4: is waged has changed since the war between Russia and Ukraine.

601
00:31:14,640 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 4: Almost all of your old equipment, as we're seeing in Iran,

602
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 4: a lot of your old equipment is just either obsolete

603
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:22,680
Speaker 4: now or so vulnerable.

604
00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 2: And then the cost differential is just so crazy.

605
00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 4: You got thousand dollars drones being taken out by million

606
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 4: dollar missiles and you just can't keep up with that.

607
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 4: And then that stuff you just heard about the kill zone,

608
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 4: the way that they can hunt people down and everything.

609
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,360
Speaker 4: So it's really something. And that's when it gets super troubling.

610
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,400
Speaker 4: So you got somebody sitting somewhere, could be anywhere in

611
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 4: the world, really piloting a drone and they're just flying

612
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 4: around and they see a guy and it might be

613
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:52,960
Speaker 4: a soldier or it might be a woman walking home

614
00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,800
Speaker 4: from the grocery store. If you're Russia and you just

615
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 4: come in with that drone and you just follow them

616
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:02,320
Speaker 4: awhile and you kill them. And they got into uh

617
00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 4: the story a little bit during the broadcast, but really

618
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 4: got into it in the sixty minutes overtime. I actually

619
00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 4: went to the website and watched the extra segment because

620
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,560
Speaker 4: I thought the story was so damn good. Really something

621
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:17,440
Speaker 4: about the innovation. They're talking about, how innovation happens on.

622
00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:22,800
Speaker 1: A weekly basis, a weekly basis on where Russia does

623
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,680
Speaker 1: something and then you have to change your drones to

624
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:26,120
Speaker 1: counter it.

625
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 4: Then they do something to counter that, and it goes

626
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 4: back and forth so incredibly fast. Now, and this guy

627
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:37,120
Speaker 4: they had who was a Ukrainian dude, but he said,

628
00:32:37,120 --> 00:32:40,200
Speaker 4: we got pretty close to parody. Now, we were way ahead.

629
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,719
Speaker 4: And the whole drone thing for a long time, and

630
00:32:42,800 --> 00:32:45,280
Speaker 4: now there's pretty much parody between Russia and the Ukraine.

631
00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:48,080
Speaker 4: It's a day by day race to see by who's ahead,

632
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:51,160
Speaker 4: which is troubling in all kinds of different levels. But

633
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 4: they got into the idea of I'm gonna sneeze, here.

634
00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:58,960
Speaker 1: We go, stand by everybody, Yeah, sneeze anybody hurt.

635
00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 4: They got into the idea of the fully autonomous drone situation.

636
00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 4: That would be when you don't have somebody sitting somewhere

637
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 4: in a room looking at a screen driving the drone

638
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 4: chasing people down killing them, when it's just AI searching

639
00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 4: for people and chasing people down and killing them. And

640
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 4: for whatever reason, I guess that strikes a lot of

641
00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 4: people as really awful when it's just completely automated. This

642
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:31,480
Speaker 4: is the part that I thought was interesting. And they're

643
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 4: talking about this Ukrainian drone expert. He was really against

644
00:33:35,760 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 4: this happening, but he was asked by Holly Williams of

645
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:41,480
Speaker 4: sixty minutes, is there a point in the future when

646
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 4: humans will be outside the process? The Ukrainian drone expert said,

647
00:33:45,600 --> 00:33:49,640
Speaker 4: I don't know whichever country starts effectively using swarms of

648
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:53,320
Speaker 4: drones is going to have a massive advantage. Holly Williams asked,

649
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,960
Speaker 4: he said, in my belief, yes, both countries are close.

650
00:33:56,280 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 4: None have gone there yet. In other words, it's just

651
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 4: a matter of time before somebody goes there. They're talking

652
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:08,760
Speaker 4: about the drone swarms, so you'll have, Ah, that's something

653
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 4: individuals can't do, because you can't really run a whole

654
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:12,840
Speaker 4: bunch of different drones at the same time. It'd just

655
00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,080
Speaker 4: be almost possible. AI can, though, And so they'll send

656
00:34:16,080 --> 00:34:18,040
Speaker 4: a swarm of drones into a village and they'll just

657
00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 4: go out hunting people and killing them. And people will

658
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,479
Speaker 4: be running for their lives from a thousand dollars drone

659
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,120
Speaker 4: that's gonna put a bullet in the back of their head.

660
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 1: And it's gonna be hun teams like you know, dolphins

661
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: or sharks or lions or whatever.

662
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 4: Absolutely, and you could tell from the tone of his

663
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 4: voice and everything like that, Look, grow up, it's gonna happen.

664
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,360
Speaker 4: We ain't gonna do it first, but it's gonna happen,

665
00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:42,839
Speaker 4: And when it does happen, we're probably gonna start doing it.

666
00:34:42,880 --> 00:34:46,040
Speaker 4: That's the way I read everything he was saying there. Oh, clearly, Yeah,

667
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 4: and he said, and we're really close. Both of us

668
00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:52,479
Speaker 4: are really close. So it's just it's that's gonna change

669
00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 4: everything on planet Earth and it's coming any day.

670
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:58,480
Speaker 2: So here's my question.

671
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 1: Holly Williams did a nice job that story, but by

672
00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,719
Speaker 1: your accident, she's clearly a Kiwi, a New Zealander. Why

673
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 1: do we need New Zealanders coming into this country to

674
00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 1: take jobs from our attractive, square jawed, white toothed, attractive

675
00:35:12,160 --> 00:35:15,399
Speaker 1: women who can speak clearly. Do we need to import,

676
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: you know, Southern hemisphereites to take our hobbies jobs?

677
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 2: I'm outraged.

678
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,440
Speaker 4: Do you have any comment on that? You could text us?

679
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 4: We got more hours to come. Get the podcast Armstrong
