The very first EPISO of Saturday Night 8 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: Live aired this past Saturday night as they were headed 9 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: into Sunday Night for their actual live show, which was 10 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,080 Speaker 1: a fifty year anniversary of the program, and all kinds 11 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:13,319 Speaker 1: of former cast members and stars, and man, that was 12 00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 1: some star studded crowd there. Every time they go to 13 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,479 Speaker 1: a crowd shot thingy and do stuff is like, look, 14 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 1: there's so and so, and there's Kevin Cosner, and there's 15 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: there's Robert de Niro and there's It was just absolutely amazing. 16 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 1: A lot of people wondering about why Kevin Costner looked 17 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: so angry and off put. Everybody else was kind of 18 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 1: watching and laughing, and he looked crazed. I've read a 19 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 1: couple of different theories about that. There's a couple of 20 00:01:39,600 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 1: actors that are apparently that were there sitting near him 21 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: and were ripping him off financially, and he's in a 22 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: big court case with Maybe that's why he was acting 23 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: that way, or maybe he was drunk. I don't know why, 24 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: but at one point he ended up holding an Elmo head. 25 00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: Toward the end during a musical number, he looked angry night. 26 00:01:55,400 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 1: He wasn't playing along at all, an angry very tan 27 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: chomping his gum Vian costner for some reason. Did you 28 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: see the Adam Sandler song he did toward the end 29 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:11,280 Speaker 1: fifty years So I was thinking about that and wondering 30 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 1: just from a crafting entertainment standpoint. So Jack Nicholson introduced him, 31 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 1: which is cool. Jack Nicholson was in the crowd and 32 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: he hadn't been seen in public in years. Nobody know 33 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: if he'd ever be seen again. He's incredibly old, eighty 34 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: seven or something like that. He's my dad's age. 35 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 2: But so there he was. 36 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:26,720 Speaker 1: He introduced Adam Sandler, and Adam Sandler does one of 37 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,280 Speaker 1: his songs, and I was thinking, Adam Sandler has a 38 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 1: special talent for and this is probably why he has 39 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: sold a billion dollars worth of movie tickets in his life. 40 00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: He has a talent for schmaltz and funny that doesn't 41 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: cross the line into too schmaltzy or too ridiculous to 42 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 1: be schmat I don't know, but he has got a 43 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: talent for that that's obviously unique, which is why he's 44 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: so incredibly successful and made so much money. 45 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: So I always think, is this too much? 46 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 1: And it always kind of gets me emotionally speaking, Yet 47 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 1: it's funny. 48 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 2: That's a tough balance, that thing right there. 49 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't Yeah, yeah, I might quibble over the 50 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: term schmalts okay sentimental differently, yeah, sentimental, Yeah. 51 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 1: Touching okay, Schmaltz is wrong because Schmaltz implies negative sentimental 52 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: and touching with funny. 53 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 2: To pull that off the way he does is incredibly. 54 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: Unique, and I guess that's what he did in all 55 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 1: his movies that he wrote that were so successful. But 56 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: I thought that was really good. But this happened toward 57 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: the end of the show, and thought it would be 58 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: a good point of discussion, So they had Tom Hanks 59 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: come out there and set up a bunch of highlight 60 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: clips from stuff that there's no way you could air 61 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: anymore on Saturday Night Live, and whether or not that's 62 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,080 Speaker 1: good or not is its own discussion. 63 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: But this is this is what the setup sounded like. 64 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 5: As we celebrate the achievements of the past fifty years, 65 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 5: we must also take a moment to honor those who 66 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 5: we've lost, countless members of the SNL family taken from 67 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 5: us too soon. I'm speaking, of course, about SNL characters 68 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 5: and sketches. 69 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: That have aged horribly. 70 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 5: But even though these characters, accents and let's just call 71 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 5: them ethnic whigs, were unquestionably in poor taste, you all 72 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:35,679 Speaker 5: laughed at them. So if anyone should be canceled, shouldn't 73 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 5: it be you? 74 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 2: The eyes something to think about. 75 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,800 Speaker 1: So I had friends that reacted to the whole thing, 76 00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: and then they ran a montage of a bunch of 77 00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: clips like lots Eclipse over many decades. It's been on 78 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 1: for fifty years. That were some of the funniest things 79 00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: and most memorable things I've ever done in Saturday Night 80 00:04:56,600 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 1: Live history, but including bleeping things and blurring things out. 81 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 1: But for the most part, like some of my friends 82 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: were highly offended that they treated it that way. I 83 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,479 Speaker 1: thought it was Lorne Michael's doing what he does with 84 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: the colin Jos Michael cha bit where they write each 85 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: other jokes and they act like they're so disgusted by 86 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: the jokes, but it's. 87 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 2: An opportunity to get the jokes on. I just felt 88 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 2: like I just felt like it was the same thing. 89 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: We're going to pretend that was just so wrong that 90 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 1: we did this, and now are a bunch of the 91 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: stuff that you really liked. 92 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,159 Speaker 2: I think so, I think you've nail it. Yeah. 93 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 4: I think Lorne probably understands pretty well. Where some standards 94 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 4: have changed, maybe appropriately, A lot of standards have changed 95 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 4: completely inappropriately, right. 96 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:49,520 Speaker 1: I mean for Tom Hanks to say that we're in 97 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: questionably in poor taste, as if in poor taste makes 98 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: something out of bounds for comedy. When when did that 99 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 1: become a thing something poor taste can't be funny or 100 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:02,480 Speaker 1: for the public. 101 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 2: I mean that, come on, now, that's hilarious. Yeah, yeah, 102 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:06,800 Speaker 2: I agree. 103 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: But it included a few things that I don't understand. 104 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 1: Why ethnic accents are off limit. Now. You know, it's 105 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 1: like Hankazaria retiring Apuh's voice from the Simpsons because you 106 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: can't sound like somebody from India. 107 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 4: Why, yeah, I consider it completely absurd. They would say, well, 108 00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 4: you're reducing it to a stereotype and lampooning them merely 109 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 4: for their nationality and the rest of it. It's an 110 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 4: absolutely universal human truth that when we hear languages and 111 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,880 Speaker 4: accents unlike our own, we notice them and they are 112 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 4: odd or amusing to us. 113 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 2: It's universally true. 114 00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 1: Well, going way way back, John Belushi, Chieberger, Chea Berger, 115 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 1: you know ethnic immigrants in Chicago running a diner. 116 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 2: Are the people that are offended by Then? 117 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,839 Speaker 1: No, no, don't is that every thing but the the 118 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,039 Speaker 1: and then body shaming had some body shaming there, okay, fine, 119 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 1: fat jokes, and then you know, the ambiguously gay duol. 120 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: I can't believe that actually was a thing for a while, 121 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: but I'm just surprised it was a thing, because I 122 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: don't know, gay is just so accepted now. I'm surprised 123 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 1: that ever worked. But the most famous one, and it's 124 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: definitely an interesting point of discussion, is Chevy Chase calling 125 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: Richard Pryor the N word on Saturday Night Live, which 126 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 1: aired in the seventies on network television. And it wasn't 127 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 1: really even that big a deal. Is are we in 128 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: a better place now by not doing that or a 129 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: worse place? And I would think we're in a worse place, 130 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: but obvious. 131 00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 4: One hundred percent because we've gone from that was a 132 00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 4: really good, insightful use of comedy to make a serious 133 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 4: point to a point now where we're just so paranoid 134 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: about it and it becoming less so because the Ebram 135 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,120 Speaker 4: Kendy garbage era is on the way, and at least 136 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 4: in normal society, not academia. But and so we're all, 137 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 4: especially white people, just terrified to say anything at all. 138 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 4: So you just tell us what to say and take 139 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 4: control of our institutions and we will obey you, so 140 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 4: you don't call us racists. 141 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 2: So you can't have an honest discussion like that. Okay, 142 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 2: do you have a question? 143 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 6: No, I don't have a question. I was just in 144 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 6: watching this whole thing. I was it was cool to 145 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 6: see stuff that I had heard of but I had 146 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 6: never seen before. I did appreciate them bringing back some 147 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:42,160 Speaker 6: of the older skits. 148 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: All right, because you're young enough, Sarah, I've started before 149 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 1: you were born, as Sabrina Carpenter said Saturday, and I've 150 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: started before her parents were born, which is really something. Yeah, 151 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: but I don't I what percentage of America if you 152 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: had all of those clips that were in poor taste, 153 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: and you know, the death of these characters because obviously 154 00:09:04,080 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 1: they can't be heard anymore. I would love to see 155 00:09:06,360 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 1: polling on each and every aspect of those because I. 156 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:14,439 Speaker 2: Think they're majority okay. Majority of people would say they're okay. 157 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 1: M of course, then the pushback would be all the 158 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,080 Speaker 1: majority of the country's white and so of course you 159 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: think it's okay to be racist or whatever. 160 00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, kiss my ass would be my response. Uh, 161 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 2: you know, Yeah. 162 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 4: Comedy exists to push limits and to call out authority 163 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 4: and to make people uncomfortable at times. That's its purpose, 164 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 4: and I despise efforts to censor it, to preemptively censor it. 165 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,839 Speaker 4: There are jokes and comedy that I hear that I 166 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 4: think are awful, They're stupid, they're mean, they are actually 167 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 4: racist or whatever, and I'll gladly tell you when I 168 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 4: think that, But the idea that they need to be 169 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 4: preemptively censored so they never offend anybody all crack. 170 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,240 Speaker 1: Well, and most of the time, as Ricky Gervasi's pointed 171 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: out before, we're all laughing because our laughter is us 172 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 1: in agreement that that is not okay. 173 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 2: That's what the joke is so. 174 00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,400 Speaker 1: It real reinforces norms. It reinforces that it's not okay, 175 00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:15,720 Speaker 1: which is interesting. I noticed that, and I was looking 176 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: for it. One thing that they used to do regularly 177 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: on Saturday Night Live in the nineties, I guess because 178 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: I know Chris Farley was involved, probably late eighties old 179 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: in the early nineties was Pat the you couldn't tell 180 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: if it was a dude or a chick. I mean, 181 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: that was an ongoing bit, and she'd go into a 182 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: barber he or she. Nobody knows if Pat was a 183 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: man or a woman. We'll just say Pat. Pat would 184 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: go into a barbershop to get their haircut, and the 185 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: barber would keep asking questions to try to get a 186 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: hint is whether this is a male or a female, 187 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: and everybody would howl with laughter. They didn't include that 188 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,960 Speaker 1: because apparently they feel like that one's too dangerous or toxic. 189 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: Wow, that's right. They didn't have any Pat. No. 190 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,080 Speaker 6: That was actually a code at one of my old jobs, 191 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,119 Speaker 6: because you know, you'd have somebody. 192 00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 2: Come through and you'd want to be like, oh, hello, 193 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:11,880 Speaker 2: miss oh wait a minute, yeah we had a Pat 194 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: come from today. Yeah, miile three, which is fine. 195 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 4: Yeah, but that was a common phrase to observe it 196 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 4: and and and make reference to how that makes you 197 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 4: feel uncomfortable because we're used to responding to people's sex 198 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,400 Speaker 4: that there's nothing wrong with that, anybody, you're hurting them. 199 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: So the bit was you're not sure if this is 200 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,600 Speaker 1: a man or a woman, and then you're going to 201 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: politely ask questions to try to determine that so you 202 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: can be more comfortable. 203 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: How is that bad?

It was always I'm politely 206 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 1: asking questions. 207 00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:56,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, we can't have that because that's hurtful. And 208 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 4: and if you're offended, you're always right, you know. It 209 00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:02,839 Speaker 4: strikes me the ultimate oil and water. The things that 210 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 4: don't mix is hypocritical, crusading do gooders, and a sense 211 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 4: of humor.

Just got a tip from 228 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 1: somebody I know who works in the federal government about 229 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: the federal government layoffs and how people are taking it, 230 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: among other things. 231 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 2: On the way, let's. 232 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 4: Talk about state government jack in state policy around two 233 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 4: of the compare and contrasts between California and Florida's homeowners 234 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 4: insurance situation. California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara last week announced 235 00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 4: a one billion dollar surcharge on private insurers meaning they're 236 00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,000 Speaker 4: policy holders, to prop up the state's insure of last resort, 237 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 4: which is now wobbling. Fair The Fair Plan or whatever 238 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 4: it's called means. Meantime, State Farm is asking regulators for 239 00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 4: an emergency twenty two percent rate increase to avoid a 240 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:50,960 Speaker 4: dire situation in two. 241 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 2: It's on top of right, it's already insane. Yeah, I know, 242 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: I know. 243 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:02,199 Speaker 4: Meanwhile, in Florida, where Governor Ron de santiss is announcing 244 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 4: lower rates thanks to their legal reforms, that's right. Several 245 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 4: of the major insurers in Florida have filed for rate 246 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 4: decreases and it doesn't have It's not about fires and storms, 247 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 4: it's about policy. Democratic insurance regulators in the Golden State 248 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:21,080 Speaker 4: for years suppressed rates even as home values ballooned. State Farm, 249 00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 4: which is the state's largest fire insurer, said earlier this 250 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 4: month it's paid a buck twenty six in claims for 251 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 4: every dollar it's collected in premiums over the last nine years, 252 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 4: resulting in five billion dollars in losses. 253 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: And California until. 254 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 4: Recently, was the only state to prohibit insurers from pricing reinsurance. That's, 255 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 4: an insurance company has insurance itself, that's part of their costs. Well, California, 256 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 4: for reasons that defy any explanation, don't let State Farm, 257 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 4: for instance, factor that into their cost basis and so, 258 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 4: and they don't allow them to use catastrophe models to 259 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 4: adjust rates. The state also bars insurers from dropping policies 260 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 4: and areas affected by fires for a year thereafter, which 261 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 4: has made it hard to limit exposure. And when they 262 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 4: do approve a rate increase is usually less than what's 263 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 4: asked for. 264 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:08,720 Speaker 2: And so companies are just. 265 00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 4: Fleeing the state, leaving hundreds of thousands of people with 266 00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 4: no option but the fare plan, which is about to 267 00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 4: become completely insolvent. 268 00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 2: And why a lot of people talked about this back 269 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: when I was looking for a house. 270 00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 1: Why a lot of people are choosing to rent rather 271 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: than buy, like practically for the first time ever, just 272 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: because the map between the price of homes, the energy bills, 273 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 1: and the insurance, it's quite the deal. 274 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely true. So meanwhile, in Florida, DeSantis Ronda Santis 275 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,040 Speaker 4: spearheaded a serious a litigation reforms in twenty two and 276 00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 4: twenty three that have headed off an insurance disaster. Insurance 277 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 4: had been raising rates by double digits annually in fleeing 278 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:54,920 Speaker 4: the market because of rampant lawsuit abuse, which ballooned their 279 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 4: insure of last resort, which was called Citizens Property. But 280 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,640 Speaker 4: now that they've reformed that, eleven new insurers have entered 281 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 4: the market in Florida as the last as the result 282 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 4: of the last two years of tort reforms, and in fact, 283 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 4: again I think it's three of the Big seven. Don't 284 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 4: sue me if that's off. Oh, it's four of the 285 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 4: top ten have filed for rate decreases. And they just 286 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 4: took about half a million policies out of citizens property 287 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 4: and they now have better, cheaper private insurance that those 288 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 4: half a million homes. 289 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 1: That's quite the comparing contrast from two different models. 290 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just the Golden State. Everybody wants no lever. 291 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 2: I'm leading the way. Like it or not. 292 00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 1: It's just frustrating leading the way in one way U 293 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 1: haul rentals, which is true. 294 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, what are you gonna do? Change policy? Nah? Try 295 00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 2: something different? 296 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 7: Nah. 297 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: Year, it's a mob. It's a criminal gang. They do. 298 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 2: It's best for the mob, not the voters.

Oh yeah, and I was losing a job, 337 00:19:00,520 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: and yeah, it happens a lot in the real world, 338 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 1: but here here it is. Apparently there was a call 339 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: probably all around the country for people who work in 340 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,719 Speaker 1: the federal government, and they gave out a phone number 341 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 1: for a government funded therapy. Government funded what a term 342 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:22,360 Speaker 1: taxpayer paid for therapy. So I'm glad I can pay 343 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 1: for your therapy. Are you paying for my therapy? No, 344 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 1: I'm paying here for your therapy, and said it's available 345 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: twenty four to seven for six months after termination or 346 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 1: for anyone struggling to come to terms with losing a coworker. 347 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 1: So not only are the taxpayer's paying therapy because you 348 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 1: lost your job, anybody else ever lose their job out 349 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 1: there and nobody paid for therapy on how to deal 350 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:49,120 Speaker 1: with it or not even that one of your coworkers 351 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 1: got fired, so you lost a friend at work, So 352 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: now the taxpayer is going to pay for your therapy. 353 00:19:54,960 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 2: Good Lord, we are far far down a road and 354 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,880 Speaker 2: clon our way back is going to be uncomfortable or impossible. 355 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,640 Speaker 1: That's what I've been saying for a couple of weeks now. 356 00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: The pushback to Elon, the vilification of Elon, the chanting 357 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 1: in the streets, and all that sort of stuff shows 358 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: you just how much they'd feel like, No, they're owed, 359 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 1: they're owed a lifetime job, and nobody should pay any 360 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,120 Speaker 1: attention to whether they're needed or not. It's really out 361 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:29,840 Speaker 1: of bounds to question this stuff. 362 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 4: And that's the folks in the street. And I can 363 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 4: forgive them for having formed certain attitudes over the years. 364 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 4: I mean, they need to come correct and wake up 365 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 4: to the reality, but I don't resent them coming to 366 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,879 Speaker 4: those conclusions because they've been told that for years and generations. Really, 367 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 4: the people I really want to kick where it hurts 368 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,719 Speaker 4: is the union heads who have realized, and they realized 369 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 4: a number of decades ago, if we could organize government 370 00:20:56,600 --> 00:21:00,199 Speaker 4: workers and make it permissible for them to unionize, that 371 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 4: is the most permanent industry that has ever existed. We 372 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 4: will get crazy rich, and we will get crazy powerful. 373 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 4: And then the politicians who are propped up by those 374 00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,200 Speaker 4: union heads. And this is the story of California politics obviously, 375 00:21:13,240 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 4: but increasingly federal too. 376 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 2: That is the true evil there. They are unholy. 377 00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 4: They they work counter to the interests of taxpayers, even 378 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 4: as they howl that the only thing they care about 379 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 4: is the taxpayers and quote unquote public servants. 380 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: It's a scam. 381 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: Well, this federal worker that I know said that is 382 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: one of the reasons they're upset is they are told 383 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 1: when they're hired, you know, you'll have to work this 384 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 1: many hours, this will be your pay, but you can't 385 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: get fired. 386 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 2: Really, so you're you know, that's one thing you can 387 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:45,359 Speaker 2: count on. 388 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 1: So you know, if I took a job and I 389 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: was told I couldn't get fired, when I got fired, 390 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 1: I would be, you know, unhappy about it. 391 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 2: The uh, the. 392 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: Problem is we shouldn't have jobs, and why would you 393 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: Why would there be such a thing as telling somebody 394 00:21:59,080 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 1: you can't be fired? 395 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 2: Why would that? 396 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:04,919 Speaker 1: Why would those civil service protections exist? Last week we 397 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 1: were talking about how most of the people that are 398 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 1: being let go so far fall within that first year 399 00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,840 Speaker 1: or two of probationary period where you don't before you 400 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:15,160 Speaker 1: get the civil service protections. 401 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,280 Speaker 3: Why do those protections exist, how do you get. 402 00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 2: Rid of them? Yeah? Why why would you have them? 403 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:26,479 Speaker 4: Well, because the union, you know, government official scam. It 404 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,880 Speaker 4: was sold to us as something good. It's insidious, it's 405 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,760 Speaker 4: it's a scam. It's a mob, it's a it's a racket. 406 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:33,040 Speaker 2: That's the term. I'm looking for. 407 00:22:33,320 --> 00:22:36,439 Speaker 1: Different thing I wanted to talk about. And really my 408 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 1: ultimate point is going to be I don't know, my 409 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:42,760 Speaker 1: ultimate point is going to be complaining about customer service 410 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,120 Speaker 1: or AI not being where it ought to be yet 411 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: or something like that. But I test drove a Tesla 412 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: cyber truck over the weekend because I was kind of 413 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: interested in maybe one of those, And man, that's the 414 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: most controversial vehicle out there. People either like them or 415 00:22:55,200 --> 00:22:58,679 Speaker 1: they just absolutely loathe them. It is, and it's the 416 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,880 Speaker 1: most striking vehicle on the world road. I mean, there's 417 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,520 Speaker 1: nothing as weird looking at as that. Maybe ever, Yeah, 418 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: I try to keep an open mind. I've seen them 419 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: in the wild. 420 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: Not a fan. Yeah, well but there's not a fan. 421 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: And then there's like loath, which I don't really get 422 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:14,640 Speaker 1: for any car. 423 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 2: I can't get that worked up about when you drive on. 424 00:23:18,520 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 6: But yes, Katie, they're making all of these wraps for 425 00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 6: the cyber trucks, and I saw one online the other day. 426 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,720 Speaker 2: Someone wrapped it like a Ford f one fifty. That's funny. 427 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I really wanted like the sort of person who 428 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:34,959 Speaker 1: would do that. 429 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 2: I think we would get along. 430 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: I really wanted to get When I drove it, and 431 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,160 Speaker 1: I absolutely freaking loved it. Many the steer by where 432 00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:46,600 Speaker 1: a wire steering that they call it is unlike anything 433 00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: I've ever driven in my life. 434 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 2: It's so cool. 435 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: Does a U turn on a dime and you hardly 436 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:54,040 Speaker 1: have to move the steering law. Very cool, smoothest riding 437 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 1: vehicle I've ever been in my life. Really really liked it. 438 00:23:56,920 --> 00:24:00,640 Speaker 1: But my son said, I will walk home from school. 439 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: If you're gonna pick me up in that, I will 440 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 1: just go ahead and walk the home. It'll take me 441 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 1: an hour, but I'll just walk home from school. I 442 00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: can't have you picking me up for that. 443 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. 444 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 1: Fine, he'd get over that. A friend of his said, 445 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:13,720 Speaker 1: I can't be friends with you anymore if your dad. 446 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 2: Drives a cyber drunk wow. Wow Wait a minute. And 447 00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 2: then how to resist the oppression of today's youth. 448 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,560 Speaker 1: And then I tweeted out a picture of me standing 449 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 1: in front of it after I did the test drive, 450 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 1: and the number of people saying you're single, You really 451 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: think you're ever gonna not be single? 452 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:33,720 Speaker 2: If you drive that? Oh well, you know blow. 453 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: You would have the situation if you drive one of 454 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: those of if you're going on a date, pulling up 455 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,600 Speaker 1: and thinking coin flip, They're either gonna think oh cool 456 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 1: or think ah. 457 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 2: My stomach's feeling kind of funny. I don't know if 458 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 2: I should go out to eat. 459 00:24:46,119 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a deal breaker. I think that would 460 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 1: be a deal breaker for a lot of people. So 461 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: weird looking. I do love the videos you can see 462 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: on YouTube of raccoons and bears trying to get into 463 00:24:55,119 --> 00:24:56,720 Speaker 1: them because they think they're a trash dumpster. 464 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,120 Speaker 2: Those are fun. I didn't that's hilarious. 465 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:07,000 Speaker 4: Actually, I'm trying to picture myself as somebody being picked 466 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:10,320 Speaker 4: up for a date, and that appears. I think I 467 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 4: would My curiosity would overcome any. 468 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,040 Speaker 2: Jees that's an ugly truck. 469 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 4: This is I can only assume the person driving it 470 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 4: is not to my taste. 471 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 2: I would just think, eh, let's take a ride. 472 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,959 Speaker 1: But that aside, and this speaks to lots of different 473 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 1: areas of life and kind of Elon himself. So Elon 474 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: such an interesting thinker, as we're seeing with Doge and 475 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 1: the rockets and the electric car, the most successful electric 476 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 1: car of all time. 477 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,640 Speaker 2: But he decided we're not going to have human beings. 478 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: It's all going to be you do everything online for everything, 479 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: and that's one of the reasons why we're going to 480 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,199 Speaker 1: streamline this. And it just flat doesn't work. It just 481 00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:52,400 Speaker 1: flat does not work at all. So I find that's 482 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: interesting and it makes me a little concerned about Elon 483 00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 1: where he is on trying to pare down the government, 484 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 1: because if he thinks that works, it doesn't. And if 485 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 1: he thinks he can do that in a government office 486 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: by eliminating human beings because we'll just have computers and 487 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: they can go online. 488 00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 2: It doesn't work. Hey, Elon, you're the world's riches man. 489 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: Hire somebody at minimum wage to answer phones and all 490 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: your dealerships so somebody could call and ask a question. Ever, 491 00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: I think that'd be a great move. No, no, no, 492 00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 1: you put him to the internet energy to get lost 493 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 1: into the world of sent to this page and that page, 494 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: and you can't ever ever figure anything out. It just 495 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:35,920 Speaker 1: flat doesn't work. And I find that juxtaposition of brilliant, innovative, 496 00:26:36,520 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 1: groundbreaking change the world with kind of basic tried something new, 497 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 1: non functional, an interesting thing that goes together in his brain. 498 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 4: Maybe faith in technology being a little too right enthusiastic. 499 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 4: Yet you know, it's funny. I hadn't even thought of it, 500 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 4: but I bought a vehicle not long ago and was 501 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,479 Speaker 4: trying to get Judy's phone connected, and you know her, 502 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 4: it's just that whole tech hookup thing.

Blah blah blah. 540 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 7: A report tells us how to cut waste, cut red tape, 541 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:39,800 Speaker 7: streamline the bureaucracy, al Gore and create a government that 542 00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,120 Speaker 7: works better and costs less by. 543 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 5: Paying for these plans, first with cuts and government waste 544 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 5: and efficiency. 545 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 7: Second, with cuts not gimmicks and government spending. 546 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: Will prove that we can spend the money we have 547 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 2: in an appropriate way and stop wasting so much. 548 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 7: We will be looking at every other agency and program 549 00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 7: asking the direct question, do we really need this agency? 550 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,480 Speaker 2: Do we really need this program? 551 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 5: One of the commitments that I made of American people 552 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 5: was that we would do a better job here in 553 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,959 Speaker 5: Washington and rooting out a wasteful spending. 554 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's all. That's all Democrats in those clips. I 555 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 1: think they probably meant it, or at least I remember 556 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:24,160 Speaker 1: when al Gore Ran Memori was on Letterman with the 557 00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:26,239 Speaker 1: hammer and he put on his goggles to smash an 558 00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: astray and he said, this hammer cost taxpayers twenty five 559 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: hundred dollars because. 560 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 2: Of blah blah blah. 561 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,200 Speaker 1: I believe they wanted to do it. It's just impossible, 562 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: especially if you're not. 563 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:41,280 Speaker 4: Well. Modern Democratic party though, is suggesting that to even 564 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 4: try it is evil. 565 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they wrong, and they would never consider getting 566 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: rid of anybody part of the package. Well, I don't 567 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 1: know that's going to work. Then we got a lot 568 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: more on the way. We'll finished Strong.

We went really big 583 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 4: on that hour two of the show. If you weren't 584 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 4: here Gravit via podcast, Armstrong and Getty on demand, you 585 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 4: probably ought to subscribe.

And the 591 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,239 Speaker 4: Germans says this is not acceptable, which is proof that 592 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:15,880 Speaker 4: he was right. They didn't say you're wrong, and here's 593 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 4: why they said, it's not acceptable for you to say that, 594 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 4: which is really really something. Thank you for proving my point. 595 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 4: But I wanted to get to this. I absolutely love 596 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 4: this National Review editorial board. There is nothing because a 597 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:30,040 Speaker 4: lot of people squealed, oh, it's improperly, he shouldn't have 598 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 4: done that. He insulted our allies, some of the useral 599 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 4: suspects of that. There's nothing incongruous or unwise about the 600 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:40,320 Speaker 4: American government reminding our allies in Europe that an organization 601 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,520 Speaker 4: that exists to protect liberty and democracy ought to be 602 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 4: filled with members who believe in liberty and democracy, especially 603 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 4: when those allies pride themselves on being the enlightened figures 604 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 4: in the room. It's reminding them, hey, we protect democracies. 605 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 4: That's the point, so you gotta be one. Yeah, I 606 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 4: don't think that's improper or out a line. 607 00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll be interesting to see where this goes. 608 00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: What do you have a guess as to what percentage 609 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:13,840 Speaker 1: of people think free speech is. 610 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,640 Speaker 2: Dangerous in what country? This country? Yeah, in the United States? No, 611 00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,760 Speaker 2: I know. The figures I saw recently among young people 612 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:24,720 Speaker 2: are just shocking. 613 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 1: Well, it must shocking. It must be higher than I 614 00:32:26,920 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: think it is for CBS to present it is. Clearly 615 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 1: they're on the right side of history here by putting 616 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 1: all these limits on free speech. I mean, we can't 617 00:32:34,520 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 1: have people insulted on the streets, are on the internet 618 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: for crying out loud. 619 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 4: It's so easy to demagog it because you present a 620 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 4: single instance and say, wouldn't it have been better if 621 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 4: this idiot hadn't said this to that nicely? 622 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 2: And it's true, well, right of course it is. 623 00:32:47,400 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 4: But then when you extrapolate it even a little bit 624 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,360 Speaker 4: to a society and you give people the power to 625 00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 4: censor and the power to decide what should be censored, 626 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,760 Speaker 4: it ends up as a nightmare every single time. I 627 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,080 Speaker 4: would rather attend to the problems of too much liberty 628 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 4: than too little. 629 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 2: Thank you very much who said that?
