1 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:06,920 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,040 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty. 3 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Jetty and now he Armstrong and Yetty. 4 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: So according to the Wall Street Journal, apparently the Pentagon 5 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: has been telling the President that actually securing the straight 6 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,400 Speaker 1: enough that ships would feel safe going through is somewhere 7 00:00:31,440 --> 00:00:34,760 Speaker 1: between extremely dangerous and totally impossible. 8 00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:36,839 Speaker 2: I was not aware of that. 9 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 1: How many people were to me that changes the complexion 10 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:45,880 Speaker 1: of everything. If that's not really on the table at 11 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: all us opening the straight, then I don't know where 12 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,840 Speaker 1: we are on this whole story, right, Yeah, yeah, between 13 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,319 Speaker 1: a rock and a hard place. Yeah, very bad. So 14 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: more on that in a little bit. We were accused 15 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,119 Speaker 1: by one listener of being nattering nabobs of negativism on 16 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: what topic, you're just in general Iran, But he didn't 17 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: supply the context, and I don't remember what we were 18 00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: talking about at the time. So anyway, we will try 19 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:20,720 Speaker 1: to natter less and not be na bops. So this, uh, this, 20 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,920 Speaker 1: I have a feeling came out because a couple of 21 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: days ago was it was the second anniversary of Trump 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 1: almost being murdered in Butler Pennsylvania, and if you recall 23 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 1: the official explanation of the mind boggling difficult to accept 24 00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: lack of coordination between the local cops and the Secret Service, 25 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: and which resulted in a level of ineffectiveness that was clownish, idiotic, 26 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: and again really difficult to swallow. 27 00:01:56,880 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 2: Yeah. I saw so many retweet. 28 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: A picture from that day and saying the whole world 29 00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: dodgable at that day. 30 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 2: There's no doubt. 31 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:08,680 Speaker 1: Oh, that would have been so awful for the country, really, 32 00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: the planet. I mean, nobody was possible to say what 33 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: would have resulted, but man, it would have virtually anything 34 00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 1: was on the table. A few people would have believed 35 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,960 Speaker 1: that it was just that crazy kid climbed up there 36 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 1: and killed the president. And then just the turmoil of 37 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: the deep state doing this. 38 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my god. 39 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: Well, on that topic, perhaps it was because of the anniversary. 40 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 1: Helen Comparatory, who is the widow of the poor firefighter 41 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 1: who was slain that day trying to protect both her 42 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: and their daughter. 43 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:42,239 Speaker 2: I believe. 44 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 1: She did an interview with News Nation or she says 45 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: essentially that she doesn't think the young near Dwell acted alone. 46 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: She can't accept that explanation. Let's hear from her, then 47 00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: we can discuss. We'll start with twenty five and work 48 00:02:59,280 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: our way. 49 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 2: Michael, none of this was fake. 50 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,840 Speaker 3: I'm tired of hearing that it was not fake. That 51 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 3: day President Trump got shot. Unfortunately, he got killed, and 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 3: I don't want anybody to forget that. And I was 53 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 3: looking right in his eyes when it happened, So I 54 00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:20,800 Speaker 3: don't want people to forget that, and that we struggle 55 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 3: every day still because we don't have answers. 56 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: So obviously, responding first there to the you know loney 57 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 1: tunes online, it didn't happen. 58 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:39,800 Speaker 2: It was faked. Trump wasn't actually shot. That's yeah, that's 59 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 2: just dump. 60 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: I hate that she feels any need to respond to 61 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: that at all. But she goes on, what do you. 62 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 4: Think the Secret Service got the most wrong? 63 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: Everything? 64 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 3: They didn't pick up the radios, they had no communication, 65 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 3: they had no communication with the outside none. 66 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 2: And she goes on on that topic and. 67 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 4: That report that there were one hundred and two calls 68 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 4: radio transmissions that were missed. Yep, it says, instead, we 69 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 4: found that Secret Service received only five phone calls and 70 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 4: three text messages about crooks. So they're admitting they got 71 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 4: five calls and texts and they didn't do anything. But 72 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,080 Speaker 4: what's your reaction. 73 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 2: My reaction is why. 74 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:25,719 Speaker 1: Why? 75 00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you have reacted from one? I mean, if 76 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 3: they would have held him back off that stage and 77 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 3: not let him go, I wouldn't be sitting here with 78 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:42,839 Speaker 3: you today. 79 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: So what were the calls and texts that, Hey, somebody 80 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: said they saw a young man with a gun climb 81 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 1: on a roof or right, yeah, yeah, we saw a 82 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: guy with a gun or a guy acting weirdly or 83 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,480 Speaker 1: a guy climbing up on that roof. God, there's got 84 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 1: to be a way to get that information to somebody 85 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: in charge immediately and hold the president back. As we 86 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: talked about at the time, presidents, everybody never comes out 87 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:08,320 Speaker 1: on time for these speeches, So hold them back for 88 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: another five to ten minutes is no big deal. Yeah, 89 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: well they check into it. Yeah, yeah, President will be 90 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: out in just a couple of minutes. Folks, stay right here. 91 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: Can't wait to hear from Donald J. 92 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,680 Speaker 2: Trump. Yeah, that's all it would have taken. That's it. 93 00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: And the fact that it didn't happen and all those 94 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:31,799 Speaker 1: calls failed to stir action. Those of you who believe 95 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: something big and conspiratorial and untoward was going on. How 96 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 1: can I talk you out of it? That level of 97 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 1: incompetence is unimaginable. And finally she gets through a conclusion. 98 00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 4: Teeve expressed believe that the gunman, Thomas Crooks, didn't act alone. 99 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 3: I don't believe there was another shooter there, but I 100 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 3: believe that he was working with somebody. I believe it 101 00:05:56,800 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 3: was inside. It was an inside job inside the government somewhere. 102 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: And this was political. 103 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, politically absolutely, yep, yep. 104 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: Have you seen evidence to that? 105 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 3: Oh, I've been told things, but I've had something that 106 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 3: happened with me that just afterwards and you're starting to 107 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 3: put the pieces together, it just made total sense. 108 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 1: She sounds exactly like a couple of people I know 109 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: who didn't lose a loved one in the shooting. Well, 110 00:06:35,480 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: the alternate explanation again, is it boggles the mind. You 111 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: can't you can't comprehend that the law enforcement in general 112 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: and secret service was that ineffective. 113 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,600 Speaker 2: You'd have to sell her on that idea, now you could. 114 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 1: We were talking about conspiracy theories yesterday or whatever it was, 115 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: and how proportionality, uh, what's it? The proportionality of paradox 116 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: gets people. One lone dip ass can't have that big effect, 117 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: that big of an effect on history, on the country, 118 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: on that poor lady in her family. 119 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 2: I can't comprehend that. I can't accept it. 120 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: Lee Harvey Oswald, loser, communist, stupid jackass can't possibly have 121 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: taken down a popular president. It just doesn't make sense. Wow, 122 00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: you could accuse her of that, but again, there are 123 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 1: two explanations. It was something there was something more going 124 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,160 Speaker 1: on that meets the eye, or the level of incompetence 125 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: was so astronomical you can't even accept it. Yeah, I mean, 126 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: we do have the historical presidents you mentioned. 127 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 2: How is it possible that a guy that had lived 128 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,240 Speaker 2: in Russia. 129 00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: And bend to the Soviet embassy in Mexico City or whatever. 130 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 1: All the different stories are behind Levarga. None of that 131 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 1: had anything to do with it. He was just a 132 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:58,880 Speaker 1: nut job who took a free shot at the president 133 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,160 Speaker 1: and got lucky. 134 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I know, poor gal Goodness. 135 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, you certainly can't blame her for any reaction she has. 136 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: I mean, not only losing someone close to you, but 137 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 1: sitting there next to them and watching it happen. I 138 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: would never be the same and what would you say 139 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 1: to talk her out of it? Right out of what 140 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: she believes. I can't talk her out of it. No, no, no, 141 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: they just ignored one hundred and two calls. Well, they 142 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: ignored ninety seven of them and five got through and 143 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: they but they didn't do anything about it. That's what happened, 144 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: missus comparatory. Please be reasonable, we'll start that. Hell, the 145 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: clear line of sight shot from not very far away 146 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 1: on a roof. 147 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: There's nobody that secures those things. Yeah, I know, I know. 148 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 1: It's incomprehensible.

Trump had the 177 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,719 Speaker 1: stat the other day. I relooked it up and he 178 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,240 Speaker 1: is right. It's it's as Trump said, with all the 179 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:21,120 Speaker 1: threats coming out of Iran against his life, it's more 180 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,280 Speaker 1: dangerous than being a race car driver being president of 181 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 1: the United States in terms of the likelihood of being killed. Yeah, yeah, 182 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: boy oh boy. All right, somebody say something, what what 183 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 1: what I'd. 184 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 2: Like to know? 185 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 1: And I don't suppose to maide it would honestly answer 186 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 1: that question. But if Iran pulled it off and killed Trump, 187 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: blows his plane out of the sky, whatever the heck 188 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 1: it is, what's our. 189 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 2: Reaction to that, Well, it'll be history changing, no doubt. 190 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 1: Laying waste to the Iranian population wouldn't do any good. 191 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 2: But you can't leave that regime alive at all. 192 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:14,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, there would have to be a show of force 193 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: that would be truly troubling. There would have to be 194 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: a cost exacted that's so high nobody ever thinks it's 195 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,200 Speaker 1: a good idea. Again, on the other hand, if you're 196 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 1: a band of religious nuts, apocalyptic death cultists, you might 197 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: welcome it. 198 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: Remember, and it's worth remembering. 199 00:11:35,679 --> 00:11:37,760 Speaker 1: The religious point of view of the hardcore in the 200 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: regime is that they want the ultimate battle for mankind 201 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: to start so allah can win it.

So we've talked several times about this dating 227 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: app that isn't just based on looks, which most dating 228 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: apps are, whether people. 229 00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:54,080 Speaker 2: Claim they are or not. 230 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,679 Speaker 1: That's the way most people are swiping, and it is 231 00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: more about matching up your interests in somehow AI is involved. 232 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: A friend brought this up to me yesterday and I 233 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: thought this was a pretty good idea. I was on 234 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 1: the topic of when I first started using one of 235 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:10,840 Speaker 1: the chatbots, and I don't remember which one it was, 236 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:14,439 Speaker 1: the threads were all separate. They clearly were, so I'd 237 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:19,360 Speaker 1: have to reintroduce information like each question. Then they all 238 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:24,240 Speaker 1: got combined. So at least chat GBT Claude and I 239 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: think Grok does it too. But anyway, the chatbots I 240 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: use the most, they keep track of all the threads 241 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: and intermingle them. So you might ask a question like, 242 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 1: you know, I want to go to the Chiefs game 243 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: in Kansas City on this date, and say, yeah, he could, 244 00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: and since you like art so much, you'd like the 245 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: museum over there. 246 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:44,359 Speaker 2: Because I'm a different. 247 00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: Threat to ask about art, you know, or you can 248 00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 1: take your kids since they're in high school now, maybe 249 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: they'd like blah. And so it's constantly putting all that 250 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: information together. Freak me out the first time it did it. Yeah, 251 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 1: I kind of like it and kind of hate it. 252 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's scary. It is scary. 253 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: But since these algorithms and I don't know if these 254 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 1: chat threads are best, or maybe maybe TikTok would be best. 255 00:15:07,440 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 1: Since TikTok is considered the greatest algorithm anybody's ever invented 256 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: to figure out what you're interested in. 257 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,920 Speaker 2: It knows better than you know what you're interested in. 258 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: It can predict better than you can with your own 259 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 1: mind what you'd be likely to click on. 260 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 2: Shouldn't it be matching us all together? 261 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 1: Shouldn't TikTok be taking its knowledge of your personality that 262 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: you don't even understand and someone else and saying. 263 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 2: You two would love hanging out together. That brings us 264 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: to the ultimate question, mm hmm. 265 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: Does that sort of knowledge of personality quote unquote predict 266 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 1: romantic success? I don't know, but I don't know why, 267 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: or as the biochemical thing unknowable by any of those 268 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 1: you know questions slash standards possibly, But it sounds to 269 00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 1: me like the same way that AI is saving medical 270 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: problems that are just way too complex. There's too many 271 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: data points, you know, meta information, all this different sort 272 00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:09,720 Speaker 1: of stuff that humans would never be able to figure out, 273 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: and so it's figuring out things, uh, you know, how 274 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 1: to fight dis cancer or identify this or that. I 275 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 1: wonder if it can do that with relationships, where it 276 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: would figure out what human beings have not been able 277 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:26,680 Speaker 1: to figure out, all the gazillion different types of styles 278 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: of personalities that for some reason come together and work, 279 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:33,760 Speaker 1: like I said, in the same way that it can 280 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 1: figure out stuff you're interested. 281 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 2: In in a way you don't even know yourself. 282 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: Maybe it could come up with a way to set 283 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:40,920 Speaker 1: you up with a mate and in a way you 284 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: don't even know yourself why that's. 285 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 2: What you're attracted to. I think the answer your. 286 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 1: Question is yes, Yes, it probably could do that, especially 287 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: if you gave it lots and lots of biochemical data 288 00:16:53,000 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: points about say fifty thousand people in successful relationships, and 289 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: maybe I don't know fifty thousand people in unsuccessful relationships. 290 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:09,440 Speaker 1: I don't know, but yeah, yeah, the answer is yes, clearly. 291 00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,800 Speaker 1: I mean, and it might be entirely biochemical. Is I'm 292 00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: not pitching that idea, but I'm kind of taking that position. 293 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,159 Speaker 1: And it would figure that out and say, don't worry 294 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 1: if she likes to play tennis or not. It doesn't 295 00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 1: matter right exactly. You sniffer hair like Joe Biden. 296 00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:28,479 Speaker 2: It's all you need to know. 297 00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,600 Speaker 1: One other thing this friend of mine brought up that 298 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 1: I thought was interesting, This would be a good thing. 299 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:38,240 Speaker 1: Does Taylor Swift have so much influence over her fans 300 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: that a whole bunch of young women women are gonna 301 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: decide getting married is a great idea and cool as 302 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,959 Speaker 1: opposed to staying single for the rest of your life. 303 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 1: And if Taylor Swift has a baby, is there going 304 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,199 Speaker 1: to be a baby boom where everybody thinks, you know what, 305 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: getting married and having kids is the cool thing to do, which. 306 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 2: Would be awesome. 307 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:01,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree, Well, I can see that happen.

And a story 348 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: that happened it was just a day or two ago, 349 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 1: is getting a lot of nationwide coverage, and I'm glad 350 00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 1: it is because to such a large extent, the battle 351 00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 1: between the progressives, the social progressives, and I don't want 352 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 1: to give it away, but not progressives, is not a 353 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: war between colonializers and the resistance, or the down trodden 354 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 1: and the patriarchy, or white people against transgender black people 355 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: or whatever. That battle is between realism and people who 356 00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 1: have these childish fantasies about how the world will work 357 00:20:57,400 --> 00:20:59,639 Speaker 1: if they just set it up right, okay, and the 358 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,920 Speaker 1: fund the police thing is that exactly. It's a perfect 359 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: example of it. They think, well, no, it's going to 360 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:08,399 Speaker 1: be just like the suburbs. That's what AOC said. 361 00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 2: What an idiot. This is the reality. 362 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,480 Speaker 5: We don't have the appropriate amount of police officers to 363 00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 5: handle the amount of demand for police services. 364 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 6: This statement from Portland Police has been made evident the 365 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 6: past several days. On Saturday, it took officers and estimated 366 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,440 Speaker 6: thirty to forty minutes to respond to what dozen nine 367 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 6: to one one calls reporting a naked man harassing people 368 00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 6: in Waterfront Park. This escalated to an alleged attempt to 369 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,439 Speaker 6: grab a seven year old girl out of her parents' arms. 370 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 6: The Bureau says its officers were tied up with a 371 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,879 Speaker 6: barricaded suspect a mile away. 372 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:43,520 Speaker 4: They're resource intensive and so when you have a draw 373 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 4: like that, it really puts to drain on the entire city, 374 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 4: not just that precinct. 375 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 2: I don't want to steal her. 376 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,800 Speaker 1: Thunder's let's play one more clip than I want to 377 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:55,560 Speaker 1: spell it out what happened. 378 00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 2: In what order. 379 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 6: But this wasn't an isolated incident. Earlier this month, a 380 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 6: group of what held back an alleged attacker for forty 381 00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 6: minutes until help arrived. And on Monday morning, a Fox 382 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 6: twelve crew was threatened with a knife at the waterfront. 383 00:22:08,800 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 6: It took police ten minutes to intervene. 384 00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 5: There's no unless it's an on call group of officers 385 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 5: like the SWAT team or the traffic team. There's no 386 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 5: additional officers that I can just bring in at a 387 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 5: moment's notice. 388 00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 6: Deputy Chief Brian Hughes says PPB was operating at a 389 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 6: twenty four percent staffing reduction, with forty one officer stationed 390 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,520 Speaker 6: across the city and ten polling overtime. He says tactical 391 00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 6: calls like the domestic violence threat in Old Town require 392 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 6: additional staff in case the suspect gets away or fires 393 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 6: a weapon. 394 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: Well, my immediate question would be, just because I know 395 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 1: the way it is been happening around California, would you 396 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: not need extra officers if these people were locked up 397 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,919 Speaker 1: the first one of the first ten times they showed 398 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: society next, they can't be free people if they if 399 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: they're in jail, then you don't have to tend to 400 00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: them every single freaking day. I mean, because I mention 401 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:02,960 Speaker 1: and had a similar situation. I called the nine to 402 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:06,879 Speaker 1: one one on an incredibly crazy, out of control person 403 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: the other day street person, and the cops called me 404 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 1: back because they always get your name in phone. 405 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 2: Hum. And they called me back and said, yeah, this person. 406 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: Is known to us. We deal with him on a 407 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: regular basis. Okay, so he acts like this all the 408 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: time and he's just out on the streets. Well, then, 409 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:22,040 Speaker 1: how much resources does that take to deal with the 410 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,120 Speaker 1: same guy day. 411 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 2: After day after day. I suppose if you put him 412 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:26,680 Speaker 2: in jail. Right. 413 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 1: So here's what happened with the crazy guy in Portland. 414 00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: At about six fifty in the evening, folks started calling 415 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:41,119 Speaker 1: that a man was running around naked in this section 416 00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:45,520 Speaker 1: of the city and just a few minutes later, but 417 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 1: the cops didn't have anybody. Sorry, yeah, we can't do 418 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 1: anything about it. A few minutes later, dispatch advised officers 419 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:55,000 Speaker 1: that another caller stayed in the man tried to punch 420 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 1: them in the head. Sorry, all officers are busy with 421 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: other calls. Can't really help you out there. Then five 422 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 1: eight minutes after that, a third caller reported that the 423 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 1: suspect grabbed a young girl, a seven year old, and 424 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 1: pulled her away with her mother for god knows what 425 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: crazy ass purpose. Finally, there were no available officers in 426 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 1: the central section of Portland, so they had to send 427 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: officers from North Precinct down to the you know, the 428 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,919 Speaker 1: other section of the city. Now that the guy was 429 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:32,880 Speaker 1: actually snatching children out of their mother's arms just unbelievable. 430 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: And these are usually cities or states where they don't 431 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 1: want you to have a gun or a knife or 432 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: any sort of way to protect yourself, even though we 433 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,439 Speaker 1: are allowing criminals to run free on the streets and 434 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 1: want to rest them and there aren't enough copstacle. Isn't 435 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:51,000 Speaker 1: that something. Yeah, they would absolutely deny you the opportunity 436 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,320 Speaker 1: to defend yourself. They would say they would try you 437 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,680 Speaker 1: for punching this guy to get him away from your child. Yeah, 438 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 1: it's it's again. It's this complete disconnect from reality. Let's 439 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 1: hear a little more from Julia Lopez on Fox twelve. 440 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:08,480 Speaker 6: With seventy vacancies more than twenty million dollars in recent 441 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 6: budget cuts at an increase in complex call since twenty twenty, 442 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 6: Hugh says patrol staff is stretched too thin to respond 443 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 6: right away. 444 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 5: It's just triaging calls as they come in on the street, 445 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:23,200 Speaker 5: as opposed to having enough officers to handle each call 446 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:23,960 Speaker 5: as they came in. 447 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 1: Build more jails, Yeah, no kidding, Yeah, don't empty the jails, 448 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,600 Speaker 1: build more of them. 449 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:30,639 Speaker 2: Here's an idea. 450 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 1: If somebody commits a crime and is prosecuted beyond a 451 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,800 Speaker 1: reasonable doubt in front of a jury of their peers, 452 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 1: have them undergo the punishment that is prescribed by law. 453 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:48,840 Speaker 2: We'll call that the Joe Getty plan. It's innovative, it's crazy. 454 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: I can write it out for you if you didn't 455 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:55,760 Speaker 1: follow it, because it's complicated. Tell me this is not 456 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 1: a war between realism and fantasyland, because they would reject 457 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 1: what I just said. Well, the over incarceration of minorities 458 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:11,760 Speaker 1: and people victimized by the colonial oppressors. Blah blah blah, 459 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:14,359 Speaker 1: telling you folks, you got to resist these people because 460 00:26:14,359 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 1: they will ruin the world. 461 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:16,880 Speaker 2: End of screed. 462 00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: Well, and hopefully you don't get your house, your car 463 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 1: broken into you, or somebody you care about hurt in 464 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:24,200 Speaker 1: the meantime. 465 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 2: All right, Yeah, yeah, that's who was it. 466 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,160 Speaker 1: Jim Cooper, the sheriff of Sacramento County in California, said 467 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: the other day can we start thinking about the victims again, please, well, 468 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: said Coop, that's the exact same same thing I said 469 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 1: at a city council meeting. When are we going to 470 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,959 Speaker 1: start caring about the law abiding taxpayer as opposed to 471 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: the drug addled the criminal? 472 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 2: Right right, It's insane.

Crap, I thought to myself. 485 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 1: And then I went back and watched the last however 486 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: many minutes to see the comeback. But I had heard 487 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 1: Messi leads his team back, and I thought, okay, Messi scored, 488 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,120 Speaker 1: And then I heard the two people that scored the goal, 489 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 1: and I thought, how did MESSI lead the team back 490 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 1: if he didn't score either of the goals. 491 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 2: But that pass he made on that extra time goal, 492 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 2: the one that sealed the whole was incredible.

I've got to go to radio 502 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: silence or kill my news alerts or something. 503 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 2: Oh that frustrated me. 504 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: I ended up watching the second half just because I 505 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,800 Speaker 1: liked good soccer. But that reminds me briefly because that's 506 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: a theme of like the third episode ever of Seinfeld. 507 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,840 Speaker 1: He had recorded the Mets game on his VCR, and 508 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 1: he had just stayed away from people all day long 509 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 1: so he wouldn't know how it turned out. 510 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 2: And then Kramer comes in and says, oh, can you 511 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:50,719 Speaker 2: believe they bought it like that? 512 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 1: Jerry and Ah, Anyway, my son and I my fourteen 513 00:28:55,360 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 1: year old, and I have started Seinfeld from episode one, 514 00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 1: season one, and we're going through it. And I had 515 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: decided over the years, for some reason, that Seinfeld didn't 516 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: hold up well. But man, I am laughing a lot. 517 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: It's good, and my son's laughing a lot. I wish, 518 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 1: I wish, you know, I had any connection to Jerry 519 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: Seinfeld and I could tell him, because I'm sure he'd 520 00:29:18,360 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: be thrilled that my fourteen year old could hardly breathe 521 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,600 Speaker 1: he was laughing so hard at something that happened in 522 00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: episode I think two of season two. There were only 523 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 1: four episodes in season one where where ye I don't 524 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,440 Speaker 1: know if you remember, but Jerry Seinfeld makes a crack 525 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:38,040 Speaker 1: about a pony, and this old immigrant lady talks. 526 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 2: About I lived in Hungary and we're very poor, and 527 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 2: I had a pony. You don't like people who have ponies. 528 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: He goes on with rands about I've never seen any 529 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 1: pictures of immigrants with ponies. Why did you leave a 530 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 1: country with ponies from non pony countries? 531 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 2: I mean, he goes on this long. It's just hilarious. Wow. 532 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:58,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd formed the same idea that it was just 533 00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: too much of its time. 534 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty funny. 535 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: But the one thing, and this is true of all sitcoms, 536 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: they're so different the early episodes from where they end up. 537 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, they grow. 538 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 1: The one character that was exactly the same episode one 539 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: to the end was Kramer. 540 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 2: Cramer never changed. He is hilarious from. 541 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: The get go, and I you know, I'm so used 542 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 1: to him because I've seen him a million times. 543 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: My son, who had never encountered Gramer. 544 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,560 Speaker 1: Was laughing from the because it's just his mannerisms are 545 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: so funny, his reactions to everything, right right, the double takes. Anyway, 546 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 1: we're really enjoying going back through that. Maybe we'll move 547 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,880 Speaker 1: on to Friends next. He'll enjoy that. I know my 548 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 1: daughter does, or my daughter and all our friends. I've 549 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 1: seen every episode of Friends six times. I saw this 550 00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: clip the other day. You know, Jerry was offered one 551 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: hundred million dollars personally by NBC to do another season. 552 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 2: Wow, and said, no, one. 553 00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: Hundred million dollars And that was twenty thirty years ago, 554 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 1: so that practically be twice. 555 00:31:02,520 --> 00:31:05,920 Speaker 2: As much now. That's a lot of money. And he 556 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: said no, Wow, I would. 557 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 1: I mean he was very, very wealthy and has become 558 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 1: even wealthier because of the syndication deal. 559 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: I gotta think I would think, all right, you know what. 560 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:26,080 Speaker 1: Even if it sucks, I'll give all the money to 561 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: start a new university that reflects my values or whatever. 562 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:36,360 Speaker 1: I'll I'll put all of it into research on you know, multiple. 563 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 2: Sclerosis or something. 564 00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:39,959 Speaker 1: Well, he and he and Larry David cared about the 565 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: product and the and the art of it a lot, 566 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: and he didn't want it to become lesser. That's why 567 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,920 Speaker 1: they left on top. He didn't want it to, you know, 568 00:31:48,040 --> 00:31:50,719 Speaker 1: have that happen, which is interesting. And he said, if 569 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 1: you care about the money, you know then that you'll 570 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:56,840 Speaker 1: never become successful. I don't know that, but anyway, it 571 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 1: does explain why so many sitcoms, though, get so suck 572 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: at the end because somebody throws that. 573 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 2: Kind of money at him. 574 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 1: And if Jerry had been like most people Cosby or 575 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 1: whatever sitcoms throughout the years, Elaine would have had a 576 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 1: baby and George would have become an astronaut or whatever, 577 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: and then another dumb season, but they would have had 578 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:20,440 Speaker 1: a big, big cash grab. Yeah, so I guess, you know, 579 00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: as as Jerry himself kind of pointed out, if he 580 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:25,560 Speaker 1: was the guy that would have taken the money, he 581 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: wouldn't have made the show that he made, so right, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, see, 582 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: I do want to talk a little about back and 583 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 1: just changed a few lines in the old episodes and 584 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:34,840 Speaker 1: pushed him out there. 585 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 2: We do exactly the same effort much. Yeah. 586 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:39,720 Speaker 1: Didn't you do this episode before about the whole masturbation. Yeah, 587 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't remember that. You must be thinking of something else. 588 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 2: We will. 589 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 3: Uh. 590 00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: We're in a sticky situation with Iran, especially according to 591 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,720 Speaker 1: this Wall Street Journal article that's out today about how 592 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: hard it is going to be to open the Street. 593 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 2: We'll talk about that in an hour three, among other things. 594 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:56,200 Speaker 2: Stay tuned. 595 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 1: We talked about it at length while you were gone. 596 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: Just wondered what your opinion was. Have you been following 597 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: the whole Caitlin Clark thing in the WNBA this season. No, 598 00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 1: she is getting the hell beaten out of her, okay 599 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:21,719 Speaker 1: and there, and they aren't calling any fouls or anything 600 00:33:21,840 --> 00:33:24,160 Speaker 1: like that, And it's gotten to the point that like 601 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:27,320 Speaker 1: announcers are saying, or league officials they're. 602 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 2: Like, what is going on here? 603 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,840 Speaker 1: National Review had a great piece about that a week 604 00:33:31,960 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 1: or so ago. First of all getting to like what 605 00:33:35,360 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 1: Charles Barkley said about it originally, this is the best 606 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: thing that ever happened to you people. Why are you 607 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: not holding her up like we held up Michael Jordan 608 00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: to make this a more, you know, a wealthier league 609 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 1: and went through all the statistics. I mean, they're stunning, 610 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 1: they're bigger. She has a bigger impact on the finances 611 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 1: of the WNBA since she came to the league than 612 00:33:53,920 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 1: Michael Jordan did. Jersey sales, ticket sales, crowds, all kinds 613 00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:00,400 Speaker 1: of different stuff, right, I think maybe Tiger Woods and 614 00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: the PGA Tour would be a better comparison. 615 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,600 Speaker 2: Yeah too, probably right. 616 00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 1: And also that statistically, if she stays healthy, she could 617 00:34:09,640 --> 00:34:12,319 Speaker 1: easily end up being the greatest player that's ever played 618 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 1: in the league. 619 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 2: So you got all that going at the same time. 620 00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: But the National Review pointing out and I thought this 621 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 1: was an interesting angle to it. 622 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 2: The WNBA is not like any. 623 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,080 Speaker 1: Other sports league that ever exists because it was a 624 00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 1: DEI project from the beginning. 625 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 2: It was just the NBA. 626 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:33,400 Speaker 1: Feeling pressure to have a women's league that they subsidize 627 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: because it wouldn't stand on its own. It would if 628 00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:39,200 Speaker 1: you took away the NBA money. The WNBA would close 629 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: this afternoon. So because of that, they don't have to 630 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 1: care about ticket sales, TV revenue, all that sort of stuff. 631 00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 2: They're a DEI league already. We're a project. 632 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: We're a feel good, virtue signal project from the start. 633 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 1: And the fact that Caitlin Clark is white and straight 634 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,640 Speaker 1: ruined their whole thing. And so they beat the crap 635 00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: out of her every night. They don't call fouls on 636 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:09,440 Speaker 1: her on the other players. She was held down and 637 00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:11,120 Speaker 1: punched in the throat a couple of weeks ago, and 638 00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 1: that one was the one that caused the National Review 639 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,359 Speaker 1: to write the article. 640 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 2: Good lord, it's it's really quite amazing. 641 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,640 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, I think we skipped a step though, 642 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: that the league was created as a DEI project and 643 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: is overwhelmingly gay and black, and the people who run 644 00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: it are overwhelmingly believers in DEI, in progressivism and hashtag 645 00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,000 Speaker 1: me too and George Floyd and all the rest of it. 646 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 2: There, they are that cabal. 647 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 1: So yeah, as suicidal as it is, they can't stand 648 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:51,480 Speaker 1: the fact that a straight white woman is excelling. That's 649 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:55,280 Speaker 1: how sick this philosophy is. And they're going the opposite 650 00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:58,160 Speaker 1: direction of other sports leagues go, whether it's Tom Brady 651 00:35:58,239 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 1: or Magic Johnson or whoever, where you go the other 652 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,920 Speaker 1: way with penalties. Don't hurt the star, don't touch the star. 653 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, isn't that something? It's insane. I wonder if 654 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 2: it's gotta be tough for her anyway. 655 00:36:12,920 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 1: She had a real big blow up against the refs 656 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,319 Speaker 1: last night, which looks bad. It's a bad look, but 657 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:19,719 Speaker 1: you'd get pretty tired of getting the crap beatn out 658 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:21,839 Speaker 1: of you no fouls called as one of the big 659 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: stars of the league, which again. 660 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 2: Is the opposite of what happens in all other sports leagues. 661 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,680 Speaker 2: What does she do now, go on strike or something. 662 00:36:28,880 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. I'm gonna talk a little ran an 663 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 2: hour three. We're in trouble Armstrong and Getty
