WEBVTT - Let's Not Make a Deal 0:00:02.440 --> 0:00:06.720 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.800 --> 0:00:11.480 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty Armstrong and 0:00:11.600 --> 0:00:18.200 Jackie I know, he Armstrong and Leddy. 0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:26.480 And most importantly, we have a deal that Iron will 0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.760 never have a nuclear weapon, which was the whole purpose 0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:31.720 of what we had to go through to get this. 0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:33.199 So it was a big, very big thing. 0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:41.800 But we have a signing code and the documents are 0:00:41.840 --> 0:00:46.040 in pretty final shape, so we'll see, we'll see. Very 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:47.920 good should be done. 0:00:48.440 --> 0:00:49.879 That should be done pretty quickly. 0:00:50.000 --> 0:00:53.640 They wanted every bit as much as everybody else wants, 0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:56.760 and then I think a lot of good relationships can 0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:57.880 ensue from this. 0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:03.400 They that was yesterday. I feel like and I realize 0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:08.640 for a lot of you, a lot of people they 0:01:08.680 --> 0:01:11.800 they've they've gone past the I care what Trump says 0:01:11.840 --> 0:01:14.959 about this thing like weeks ago, but I really think 0:01:15.040 --> 0:01:20.080 like this is his last go round with this before 0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:24.080 it's a complete joke. I think the next time it 0:01:24.120 --> 0:01:27.160 will not just be skepticism, it'll be like you gotta 0:01:27.160 --> 0:01:33.480 be freaking kidding from like everybody if this one isn't real, So. 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.600 You think this is some sort of end of credibility 0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:39.000 just to go around. 0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:41.000 I was feeling that. So I don't know what order 0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:43.040 to do this, and let me do this. So uh. 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.119 Trump makes the announcement yesterday sounding very very serious, more 0:01:46.160 --> 0:01:49.640 serious than usual, I would say, more less blustery, more 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:53.960 more business like, I thought than usual. With we finally 0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:56.120 have a deal. He had h had vowed in the morning, 0:01:56.200 --> 0:01:58.200 he went on Fox and Friends yesterday talking about how 0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:00.680 We're gonna hit all their infrastructure or take in their oil. 0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:03.800 You know, I've had it. Then in the day, later 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:05.280 in the day, he calls it off and says, we 0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:07.440 have a deal. We have a deal. They agreed to 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:10.720 the terms. The you know, the ink's almost dry. Hopefully 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:13.200 get it signed this weekend, but very soon. JD. Van's 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.960 flying to the Middle East. Sounded very very solid about it. 0:02:16.840 --> 0:02:20.080 Then some details started to leak out from various sources. 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:24.840 And how accurate those are that's the question on that 0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:30.399 there is a truth social post from Trump about that 0:02:31.200 --> 0:02:34.480 this morning. The terms that Iran leaked out to the 0:02:34.480 --> 0:02:36.840 fake news have nothing to do with the terms that 0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:39.760 we agreed to. In writing. What they hasn't said, including 0:02:39.800 --> 0:02:42.959 their weak and pathetic statement on having a deal bears 0:02:43.000 --> 0:02:46.080 no relation to the truth. Very dishonorable people to deal 0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:48.440 with with them. There's no such thing as dealing in 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:52.880 good faith. Amazing, all caps exclamation point. Also, they're totally 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:55.520 rebuffed drone attack last night. Yeah, they attacked a bunch 0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.360 of ships with drones last night after Trump announced we 0:02:58.360 --> 0:03:01.840 have a deal again. Indian ships leaving the Hormus Strait 0:03:01.960 --> 0:03:07.040 is totally unacceptable. In all caps. Yeah, yeah, it is. Uh, 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.640 that's my words. They better get their act together and fast. 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:16.000 President Donald J. Trump, I don't even know how to 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:20.440 react to that. So it's possible the details that leaked out, 0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:22.919 who knows who leaked them out and whether they're close 0:03:22.960 --> 0:03:26.040 to the piece of paper or not, or if they 0:03:26.080 --> 0:03:32.640 are just completely jerking him around again. Right. Eric Erickson 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:36.080 is a co radio host of Some Note in America, 0:03:36.160 --> 0:03:38.800 and he's been behind Trump and a lot of stuff 0:03:38.880 --> 0:03:40.880 for a lot of years of the whole Trump thing. 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:43.360 He tweeted this out today. He has a lot of followers. 0:03:43.640 --> 0:03:46.240 At least thirty nine times in the last sixty five days, 0:03:46.240 --> 0:03:48.119 the President of the United States has declared the United 0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.160 States in Iran, we're close to a deal, only to 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:53.200 have the Iranians openly mock him and deny it, which 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.560 seems like might be what has happened in the last 0:03:55.600 --> 0:04:00.880 eighteen hours. It's sure close to mockery. Into yesterday, the 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:02.640 President went on Fox and Friends in the morning to 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:05.720 declare bombings would resume and be even more ferocious. By 0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.240 the afternoon, he declared bombings would cease because the deal 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:11.600 was close. He claimed buy in from the Egyptians, the Amadis, 0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:14.560 the Saudis, the Kuwaitis, the Israelis, the Iranians, and more. 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.640 Egypt said it had no knowledge of any deal. Israel 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:20.880 said it had no knowledge of any deal. Then the 0:04:20.920 --> 0:04:25.279 official semi Iranian news agency FARS, that agency that represents 0:04:25.360 --> 0:04:27.880 the voice of the Revolutionary Guard in Iran. I did 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:31.159 see this, said there was no deal. Overnight word came 0:04:31.200 --> 0:04:34.840 that the Ayatola refused the deal. Then the Iranians started 0:04:34.880 --> 0:04:37.320 firing drones at commercial vessels in the Strait of Horror, 0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:41.839 moves that is known The president the other days said 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:44.080 Iran was playing. Is the only one being played? Is 0:04:44.160 --> 0:04:47.159 President Trump? A state of war exists between Iran and 0:04:47.160 --> 0:04:50.160 its neighbors. The ceasefires of farce the president has turned. 0:04:49.960 --> 0:04:53.880 Into a clown boy that Eric who has not historically 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.159 He's not a Trump deranged guy. 0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:56.920 Or anything like that. 0:04:57.040 --> 0:05:02.080 No, No, is the centerpiece of my all double named 0:05:02.160 --> 0:05:05.360 talk radio share at station though with Eric Erickson, Hugh 0:05:05.400 --> 0:05:07.520 Hewitt and Lars Lars Larsson. 0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.280 That's right, Yeah, yeah. 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:14.280 If your name is William Bill, Bill Williamson will consider 0:05:14.360 --> 0:05:15.160 you now. 0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:20.279 James Jamison has tweeted like I said, maybe it's maybe 0:05:20.320 --> 0:05:22.919 I just am the last one off the ship or 0:05:22.960 --> 0:05:25.359 whatever on this. He's turned into a clown thing. But 0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:29.599 I feel like if what he said yesterday doesn't turn 0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:33.440 out to be anything, I don't know where we are now. 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:38.680 I feel like he's at credibility zero. Mark Propperto's pointing 0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:42.040 out on his newscast yesterday that Trump announced this the 0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:44.520 war is over deal to be signed in a couple 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.200 of days, and a bunch of newscasts put it like 0:05:47.360 --> 0:05:50.440 fourth in their newscasts that afternoon. I noticed that last 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.599 night watching ABC, because they're like, we've heard this before. 0:05:55.279 --> 0:05:58.960 I hope I am wrong, but I'm having exactly the 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:02.480 same emotional and intellectual reaction as I do to a 0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:07.800 person who I'm involved with. Their life was a severe underachiever, 0:06:08.080 --> 0:06:10.880 and is always talking about what they are going to 0:06:10.960 --> 0:06:16.200 do and it doesn't happen. Ever, I'm like, okay, all right, 0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:18.600 I don't want to hear this, tell me when it happens. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.080 That's a I know that personality thing and all that 0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.320 and all that. That's a different thing though, what Trump's 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:29.840 doing though, because Trump is not he believes them. That's 0:06:29.839 --> 0:06:35.080 what's crazy about this. He Yeah, it's a different sort 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:38.640 of delusion. He thinks, he thinks things, he thinks he's 0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:43.960 got a deal every time. I think he actually believes it. 0:06:44.200 --> 0:06:46.800 Boy. Eric's rundown of the events the last twenty four 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.800 to thirty six hours was extremely compelling. It was quite 0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:57.159 an indictment. Wow, I hope to be wrong. I really do. 0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.400 For the good of the United States of America. I'm 0:06:59.440 --> 0:07:01.160 like most of the country these days, and I want 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:03.560 to talk about this at some point, But I am 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:05.279 not obsessed with Donald J. 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:05.799 Trump. 0:07:06.560 --> 0:07:09.360 A victory for Trump, if it's a victory for America, 0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.200 is a good thing. A loss for Trump, if it's 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:14.600 a loss for America is a bad thing. 0:07:15.040 --> 0:07:17.800 Yeah, No, I don't. Yeah, I agree one hundred percent. 0:07:17.840 --> 0:07:18.880 This is a big deal. Though. 0:07:19.520 --> 0:07:24.720 We're at war and this what's a terrible malign power 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.640 that seeks to export horror and death. Yes, killed more 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:30.520 Americans than any other country in the last half century. 0:07:30.960 --> 0:07:33.160 And they want to get a nuclear weapon, and they're 0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:38.400 genocidal Islamists for God's sake, right, And I feel like 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:41.520 because of all this stuff going on, somehow history is 0:07:41.560 --> 0:07:48.840 not fully appreciating appreciating usually as positive connotations, but fully 0:07:48.880 --> 0:07:52.720 appreciating the fact that they murdered forty two thousand people 0:07:52.760 --> 0:07:56.000 in the streets. R CM and Square is still talked about. 0:07:56.440 --> 0:08:00.480 Is a fraction likely in nineteen eighty nine TENAM and 0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:03.880 Square China mowing down the students. They're trying to revolt 0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:06.200 a fraction of what happened in Iran the other day. 0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:08.600 I don't feel like it fully is appreciated as an 0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:09.560 historical event. 0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:12.320 Yeah, And I think the reason for that is and 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:16.200 all this factors in one of the tentative the proposed 0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:18.880 titles of the program today, which I cook up every day. 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:22.080 I want to make sure I get this exactly right. Dot, 0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:24.840 come on up here, there it is. There are no 0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.000 there are no barbarians at the gate. Now hurry up 0:08:28.080 --> 0:08:31.280 or we'll be late for the gladiator match. My point 0:08:31.280 --> 0:08:36.720 being between the unbelievably successful incursion of Marxism into our 0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:41.119 schools and America self hatred in our schools and universities 0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:46.960 and now in our culture, and the accompanying xenophilia, the 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:51.320 idea that America's rotten to the core. But these other countries, 0:08:51.400 --> 0:08:54.880 they have beautiful cultures and systems, and we dare not, 0:08:55.640 --> 0:09:00.400 especially if you're white, criticize what they do. Got to 0:09:00.480 --> 0:09:03.240 only stare at ourselves in our horrors. And if I 0:09:03.320 --> 0:09:05.559 were to, if I, you know, one of the masterminds 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.000 of the Marxist takeover, I would do that because I 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.360 would realize, Look, if you look around at the rest 0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:12.880 of the world, everybody's going to realize. 0:09:12.800 --> 0:09:16.120 We're way way, way better, way more. 0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:21.200 Welcoming to different people and cultures, way more opportunity, far 0:09:21.280 --> 0:09:25.800 more human rights. We can't convince everybody is America's Satan 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:27.520 if they look around. 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:29.040 So don't ever. 0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:31.720 Criticize anybody else. That's all part of the whole, the 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:37.160 same unholy stew and so any rare sucking Homo sapien 0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.600 on the face of the earth ought to be condemning 0:09:39.679 --> 0:09:41.959 Iran at the top of their lungs. For the horrors 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:45.199 they've perpetrated, but it's not happening. There's got to be 0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.240 a cultural reason for that. And I think I'm pretty 0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.800 close to having described it. I'm know er Eric, Eric Erickson, 0:09:50.880 --> 0:09:56.160 or Hugh Ewett or Lars Larsen, Jim Jamison, but. 0:09:57.600 --> 0:10:05.000 Eh, moving along. So like the New York Post headline, 0:10:05.040 --> 0:10:08.679 Trump blasts Taran, they better get their act together? Does 0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:14.000 or yeah, exactly? Does anybody feel that threat? Anybody on 0:10:14.200 --> 0:10:19.080 earth feel that threat? I mean that is the parent 0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:23.160 saying for the fiftieth time, you better stop. And the 0:10:23.240 --> 0:10:25.480 kid doesn't even hear it at that point, and they 0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:27.600 don't even bother to roll their eyes. They don't even 0:10:27.640 --> 0:10:34.319 hear the words background noise. Yeah, it's embarrassing. I'm embarrassed 0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:39.080 for him. Please stop saying or else it's embarrassing to 0:10:39.120 --> 0:10:40.640 the whole country. 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:43.080 And please stop saying, we're close to a deal. Tell 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:47.360 us when it happens. Of course, he more or less 0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:50.319 did yesterday. Keep but they say again, that's what That's 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:53.640 what I'm concerned about. I think he believed it. I 0:10:53.640 --> 0:10:57.160 don't think he was jerking us around. He's being jerked around, 0:10:58.040 --> 0:10:59.960 and he keeps falling for it. 0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:03.040 That's what's so crazy. 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:10.120 I've never been close to the most powerful office on Earth, 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:14.120 so I can imagine how people behave. I can try 0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:17.480 to try to understand it, but I can't really, you know, 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:21.360 I can't feel it. I can't imagine it accurately. Marco 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:27.560 Pete Hegsath good point. Jared Kushner, Yeah, no kidding, I 0:11:27.559 --> 0:11:28.920 mean think whatever you wanted, Jared. 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:31.560 He's not an ideologue. He's a very very practical man. 0:11:33.720 --> 0:11:36.160 Is it that Trump is not listening to them, or 0:11:36.640 --> 0:11:41.160 he doesn't hear them, or they're not saying it well 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:42.480 roughly what we're saying. 0:11:42.600 --> 0:11:45.480 I wonder if they're just not saying it. But there's 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:50.720 no way those people are fallen for every single time 0:11:50.760 --> 0:11:53.079 the Uranians say sure, sure, we'll do that, and then 0:11:53.280 --> 0:11:55.880 start bombing ships and put out a statement in the 0:11:55.920 --> 0:11:58.720 media saying we don't agree to anything right right. 0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:01.600 Often, when Jack asks me to make a prediction or 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:03.480 I talk about what I think is happening, I'll give 0:12:03.480 --> 0:12:08.720 you a percentage of certainty. I am one hundred percent certain, 0:12:08.800 --> 0:12:11.520 or let's say ninety nine, because you know acts of God, 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:15.520 et cetera. I am ninety nine percent certain. The leadership 0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:18.680 in Iran is one hundred percent committed to getting a 0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:23.359 nuclear weapon, one hundred percent committed to preserving their proxies, 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:28.440 one hundred percent committed to conquering the entire world in 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.600 the name of Allah, all of those three things. And 0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:34.559 to the extent that they've come to an agreement or whatever, 0:12:34.960 --> 0:12:39.920 it's merely a feint, merely a tactic to achieve those 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:40.600 three goals. 0:12:40.679 --> 0:12:42.840 I am as certain of that as I am of 0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:46.319 my own reality. Yeah, I would agree. Therefore, I am, 0:12:46.360 --> 0:12:49.640 and I think that I would agree. All right, Well, 0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.920 I would imagine there are going to be developments over 0:12:51.960 --> 0:12:54.120 the next three hours and forty two minutes that we're 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.920 doing this today. I want you to do the Buffalo thing, 0:12:57.920 --> 0:13:02.480 isn't it two hours and forty two minutes? Yeah, you're right. 0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.200 Oh my god, I almost gave you a heart attack. 0:13:06.600 --> 0:13:08.240 We're doing five hour show today. 0:13:08.640 --> 0:13:10.760 I don't have it a million I'm not a strong man, 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:17.880 and it's frye Lord, you gotta do the Buffalo thing, Okay, okay, 0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:20.160 because I want to hear we got to work this out. 0:13:20.559 --> 0:13:22.040 If you haven't heard this, this is funny. This has 0:13:22.040 --> 0:13:26.760 got nothing to do with war or Trump marxism Elon 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:30.080 Musk's a trillionaire now and that's just awful for some people. 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.480 But anyway, stay tuned. 0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:37.480 Thanks for listening to the Jack Jackson and Joe Joe 0:13:37.679 --> 0:13:38.280 Sons show. 0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:43.160 Coming up next, Lars Larson, Eric Erickson, and You Hewitt. 0:13:43.760 --> 0:13:56.560 Stay tuned for more Jack and Joe Strong. SpaceX shares 0:13:56.600 --> 0:13:59.719 indicated to open twenty nine percent above IPO price in 0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.000 day I've already missed out, damnit, yep, too late. 0:14:03.480 --> 0:14:07.360 So we got this note from uh Scott who says 0:14:08.080 --> 0:14:15.160 this sentence is actually grammatically correct, and some of the 0:14:15.200 --> 0:14:17.800 buffalos in the sentence are capitalized. I'm going to clap 0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:20.840 my hands to indicate when something is capitalized. 0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:21.480 That's interesting. 0:14:21.920 --> 0:14:29.840 Buffalo buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo buffalo. He says, 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:34.280 it's actually grammatically correct and means the bison from Buffalo 0:14:34.760 --> 0:14:38.440 that are bullied by other bison from Buffalo also bully 0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.560 bison from Buffalo. And yes, I'm aware of bison is 0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:46.320 subtly different than a buffalo. But I have gone over 0:14:46.360 --> 0:14:49.080 this and gone over this. I am far past the 0:14:49.120 --> 0:14:52.240 point where you know, if you say a word often enough, 0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:54.720 it just becomes a collection of sounds and doesn't have 0:14:54.800 --> 0:14:56.480 meaning anymore, and you start to get a headache. 0:14:56.840 --> 0:14:58.000 I'm way down that road. 0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:01.400 But Scott, with all due respect, I have studied this 0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:05.120 now for ten minutes as a grammar nazi, and I 0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:06.520 don't think it's correct. 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.720 You need to well, I have. I can get to 0:15:10.800 --> 0:15:15.040 first three words makes sense to me. Yeah, Buffalo buffalo, 0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:18.720 buffalo buffalo for forwards. Yeah, those four words definitely were 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:23.080 as a sentence, Buffalo buffalo, buffalo buffalo. But to. 0:15:25.160 --> 0:15:28.200 Write out what you've stated, it means you need number 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:34.120 one past tense, and I believe a dash. I'm going 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:36.400 to clap my hands again. The first one is capitalized 0:15:36.440 --> 0:15:39.000 merely because it's the first word in the sentence, but 0:15:39.040 --> 0:15:41.240 it is also the proper name of the city in 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:45.840 New York. Buffaloed buffalo, buffalo buffaloed. 0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:49.080 I'm sorry, I missed buffaloed. 0:15:48.640 --> 0:15:55.040 Buffalo, buffalo, buffaloed, buffalo, buffaloed, buffalo, buffalo. 0:15:56.000 --> 0:15:58.840 I see buffaloed buffalo. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:08.640 Right, buffaloed buffaloed, the city of bullied, city of Buffalo, buffalo, 0:16:10.160 --> 0:16:18.800 dash buffalo buffalo's because you need the plural there, buffaloed buffalo, buffalo. 0:16:19.280 --> 0:16:26.400 So while they are while they are victims. While they 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:32.680 are victims of buffalo buffalo buffaloing, they in turn are 0:16:32.800 --> 0:16:37.880 buffaloing their fellow buffalo buffalo, which is really a study 0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:41.080 of human nature. Buffalo nature is something that might be 0:16:41.120 --> 0:16:48.480 the funniest clip you've ever played. Michael Scott, thanks for 0:16:48.480 --> 0:16:49.360 giving me a headache. 0:16:49.680 --> 0:16:57.280 Please clap, please clap? Oh lord, oh, I need to 0:16:57.320 --> 0:17:01.400 lie down. Biggest sporting event in the world every four years, 0:17:01.520 --> 0:17:04.879 the World Cup soccer match the US team. Do we 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.720 have a chance? They're being called the Golden Generation? Will 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:09.280 tell you about them. Oh, I don't know about that. 0:17:09.840 --> 0:17:11.119 I know we got a team, and I know we're 0:17:11.119 --> 0:17:13.080 playing tonight against Paraguay. I didn't know they got a 0:17:13.160 --> 0:17:15.800 chance of going far. So a lot on the way. 0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:17.480 If you miss a segment of the podcast arm Showing 0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:21.199 and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:25.520 Why do the Americans insist on calling it soccer? Why 0:17:25.520 --> 0:17:27.760 do they have such a problem calling it football? 0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:29.160 It's a game played. 0:17:28.800 --> 0:17:32.600 With a ball that is struck with the foot, hence football, 0:17:32.720 --> 0:17:36.560 whereas American football is a game where an object that's 0:17:36.640 --> 0:17:39.760 not really a ball at all is carried around by 0:17:40.040 --> 0:17:44.720 hand and occasionally prone for other people to catch in 0:17:44.760 --> 0:17:48.119 their hands. Only one person in each team is allowed 0:17:48.160 --> 0:17:50.320 to actually kick the ball, and they have to be 0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:52.879 specially brought onto the field to do it. 0:17:53.880 --> 0:17:56.439 The Great John Cleis of Monty Python wondering about the 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:59.199 whole soccer football fang, which kind of reminds me of 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:02.680 the famous Bargazi thing where he's George Washington on Saturday 0:18:02.760 --> 0:18:08.359 Night Live, hilarious. Is there kicking? So there's kicking. There's 0:18:08.400 --> 0:18:16.080 some kicking. How many points? Sometimes one, sometimes three? But 0:18:16.160 --> 0:18:18.240 the World Cup soccer matches going on. It's the biggest 0:18:18.280 --> 0:18:20.199 sporting event in the entire world every year because other 0:18:20.240 --> 0:18:22.480 countries really really care about soccer a lot more than 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:22.720 we do. 0:18:23.520 --> 0:18:26.600 What's the origin of the term soccer? What's the etymology? No, 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:29.520 I don't even know. I have no idea. There's gotta 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:33.160 be some explanation of it. Michael figured out anyway. Yeah, 0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:36.119 so the World Cup is kicking off. No putent editor 0:18:36.160 --> 0:18:40.120 did yesterday, I guess in the US, Canada and Mexico, 0:18:41.119 --> 0:18:45.440 and the US team is actually expected to do okay, 0:18:45.720 --> 0:18:50.440 pretty well. The very basic we're the sixteen seed, aren't we, ah, 0:18:50.560 --> 0:18:52.959 something like that, sixteenth ranked in the world or something 0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:57.240 like that, Yeah, we didn't even qualify for the twenty 0:18:57.280 --> 0:19:02.359 eighteen World Cup, which was considered humiliation. So the US 0:19:02.440 --> 0:19:06.399 Soccer Federation cleared out all the veterans and began building 0:19:06.440 --> 0:19:09.919 around a nucleus of young players who were like up 0:19:10.000 --> 0:19:13.320 and coming stars in Europe's toughest leagues, because you know, 0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:16.120 if you're really good, that's where you go, with all 0:19:16.200 --> 0:19:18.800 due respect to the North American Soccer League or Major 0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:19.840 League Soccer aguas, right. 0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.880 Because there's so much money in it over there. That's 0:19:22.880 --> 0:19:25.000 what makes you a big star, which is always makes 0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:28.200 you wonder what would our soccer program be if you said, 0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:30.600 all right, none of you young athletes in America are 0:19:30.600 --> 0:19:33.640 allowed to play in the NBA, the NFL or Major 0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.200 League Baseball. All you best athletes have to play soccer. 0:19:36.359 --> 0:19:39.480 I think we'd dominate the planet if we did that. Yeah, 0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:40.560 it's entirely possible. 0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:44.199 But so these youngsters have come up playing together as 0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:47.280 a national team a year after year now when they're 0:19:47.320 --> 0:19:50.040 not at their day jobs, and have been widely dubbed 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:54.840 America's Golden generation. They haven't really been golden yet, but 0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:58.920 the very very promising. When they're good, they're very very good. 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:01.840 But they tend to give up a fair number of 0:20:01.840 --> 0:20:03.959 goals because they play very aggressively. 0:20:04.119 --> 0:20:07.320 So that's that's your basics. The Big Star. I guess, 0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:10.840 like I'm imagining, Jalen Brunson would be a great soccer 0:20:10.920 --> 0:20:13.560 player if he decided to do that instead of play 0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:14.760 for the New York Next. 0:20:15.040 --> 0:20:19.320 Right sure, Oh yeah, yeah, look at the entire NFL. Yeah, 0:20:19.359 --> 0:20:26.879 you're incredibly strong, quick, and have unbelievable cardiovascular fitness. Yeah yeah, 0:20:26.920 --> 0:20:29.040 so the star. And I don't actually know how to 0:20:29.040 --> 0:20:32.239 pronounce his name. I've known a handful of people of 0:20:32.400 --> 0:20:36.760 Slavic origin, serbs and croats and stuff, and sometimes they 0:20:36.800 --> 0:20:38.840 americanize their names and sometimes they don't. 0:20:40.160 --> 0:20:43.760 But what is this kid's name? Where is it? I've 0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:47.040 lost it and then I'll come back to it. 0:20:47.119 --> 0:20:50.480 Oh, Christian Pulisic if he pronounces it like the old 0:20:50.520 --> 0:20:53.399 country or pull a sick, don't know. 0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:56.159 So he could be a household name by tomorrow. 0:20:57.000 --> 0:21:00.320 Yeah, yeah, but it sounds like an exciting seem to 0:21:00.320 --> 0:21:03.800 watch anyway, to the extent that you anybody finds soccer exciting. 0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:05.720 I love watching it. I don't watch it a lot 0:21:05.760 --> 0:21:07.879 because there's just too much entertainment in the world. But 0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:09.480 I'll be watching the American games. 0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:12.480 Percent we're supposed to beat Paraguay. They're not that great, 0:21:12.680 --> 0:21:16.000 so we'll at least move on past today for a 0:21:16.000 --> 0:21:19.679 little while. Do you know how they do it in 0:21:19.720 --> 0:21:21.639 the World Cup, like if it's a tie at the 0:21:21.760 --> 0:21:24.120 end of the time, when they announce, hey, the game's over, 0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:26.240 and everybody's like, oh, okay, cool, because there's not actually 0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:27.800 a clock a duel. 0:21:29.320 --> 0:21:34.520 I believe in the in the group stage where y'all 0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:38.200 play each other roughly, and then the top teams advanced 0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:42.120 to the knockout round where it's single elimination. I think 0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:44.720 ties are ties. When you get to the knockout round, 0:21:45.119 --> 0:21:46.280 just settle it with goal kicks. 0:21:49.359 --> 0:21:53.600 There, it's already begun. The festivity has begun. Oh fantastic 0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:56.720 and very festive too. Oh I was I gonna say. 0:21:56.720 --> 0:22:00.639 Oh, interestingly enough, if we come in second in our 0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:05.480 pool group whatever they call it, and Iran comes in 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:07.520 second in their group, we. 0:22:07.520 --> 0:22:09.040 Play each other. Wow. 0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:13.680 Yes, yes, Donald Trump just announced that we have won 0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:16.399 that match. Oh, the Iranians are denying it in the 0:22:16.400 --> 0:22:17.280 match hasn't been held. 0:22:17.440 --> 0:22:21.280 Well, that would be interesting because the Iranian team probably 0:22:21.359 --> 0:22:25.399 to a man, including the coaches, would happily defect and 0:22:25.520 --> 0:22:28.440 stay here if it weren't for their families would be 0:22:28.520 --> 0:22:32.440 executed at home. Yes, so it's not like, you know, 0:22:32.680 --> 0:22:35.000 they wouldn't be in agreement. Yeah, I hope you do win. 0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:37.680 They would be thinking, I hope you do win the war. 0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:40.280 I hope the regime falls, and uh, yeah, I'm rooting 0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:40.560 for you. 0:22:41.080 --> 0:22:42.879 Yeah, we're gonna try super hard in this match so 0:22:42.880 --> 0:22:45.240 we're not executed. Not because we have any great pride 0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:47.800 in our country, most of them probably, Yeah. 0:22:47.880 --> 0:22:48.120 Yeah. 0:22:48.359 --> 0:22:50.360 I don't know whether to root for beating the hell 0:22:50.359 --> 0:22:53.159 out of them or you know, let them emigrate, but 0:22:53.200 --> 0:22:55.280 they can't because their families would be executed. 0:22:56.880 --> 0:22:59.720 Yeah, that's some boy. That'll be exciting if if that 0:23:00.160 --> 0:23:02.560 comes to be. I want to talk about this later. 0:23:02.640 --> 0:23:03.879 I don't know if I'm in the mood for it 0:23:03.960 --> 0:23:08.520 on a Friday. But the Nation magazine, which I assume 0:23:08.520 --> 0:23:11.040 as a website, used to be a magazine. It's one 0:23:11.080 --> 0:23:14.480
