1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George 2 00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. 3 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Gatty and no, he. 4 00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:27,680 Speaker 3: Armstrong and Yetty, a half faked negotiator could have settled 5 00:00:27,680 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 3: this years ago. 6 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:34,239 Speaker 4: Direct US and Russian negotiations about Ukraine not sitting well 7 00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 4: with Ukraine's Vladimir Zelenski. Absolutely, we are completely honest and open. 8 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,000 Speaker 2: That's why I don't want any coincidences. 9 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,080 Speaker 4: That's why I don't want to go to Saudi Arabia. 10 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 4: President Trump not sympathetic to Zelenski's complaint. 11 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,400 Speaker 1: But today I heard, oh, we weren't invited. Well, you've 12 00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:51,480 Speaker 1: been there for three years. 13 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 4: But Trump insists it's not personal, and I like him personally. 14 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:56,480 Speaker 4: It's just fine. 15 00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,520 Speaker 2: But I don't care about personally. 16 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 4: I care getting the job done. 17 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,200 Speaker 2: Boy, that's interesting. I like Peter Doucy. I watch Fox 18 00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:08,000 Speaker 2: every single day. But they edited it out Trump saying 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:12,080 Speaker 2: Ukraine started the war. They didn't want to deal with that. 20 00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:13,280 Speaker 4: No. 21 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 2: No, that's a pretty major statement by the President of 22 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: the freaking United States about a war were involved in. 23 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 4: Well, and he'll leave that out either Today. In subsequent tweets, 24 00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 4: as we'll get to. 25 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,000 Speaker 2: So let's play the whole clip here, thirty there, Michael, 26 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:29,919 Speaker 2: I want. 27 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 4: To see piece. 28 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 1: Look, you know why I want because I don't want 29 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 1: all these people killed anymore. I'm looking at people that 30 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: are being killed, and they're Russian and Ukrainian people, but 31 00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:43,759 Speaker 1: they're people, doesn't matter where they're from, on the whole planet. 32 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 1: And I think I have the power to end this war, 33 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: and I think it's going very well. But today I heard, oh, 34 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: we weren't invited. Well, you've been there for three years. 35 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,640 Speaker 1: You should have ended it three years. You should have 36 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: never started it. You could have made a deal. 37 00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: You should have never started it. Ukraine started the war. 38 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,040 Speaker 4: You've been there for three years, you should have made 39 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 4: a deal. I am utterly flabbergasted by that series of statements. 40 00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 2: And we were thinking there is a chance he was 41 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 2: going to walk it back today, that maybe he just 42 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 2: shot off his mouth and you know, went too far. 43 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 2: I do it all the time, I do it almost 44 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 2: every day, or I wish I hadn't gone that far 45 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:19,160 Speaker 2: on something in an effort to be provocative or funny, 46 00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 2: and I thought, maybe he's gonna walk it back, But 47 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: he tweeted out think of it a modestly successful comedian. 48 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 2: Zelensky talked to the United States into spending three hundred 49 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: and fifty billion dollars. You can skip down to, uh, 50 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 2: how it's a gravy train for Zelensky, that sort of stuff. 51 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 2: He's a dictator without elections, Zolensky not holding elections, so 52 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,520 Speaker 2: he's become a dictator, that sort of stuff. Britt Hume 53 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:49,839 Speaker 2: of Fox Again Fox Left that they started the war 54 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 2: out of that clip on purpose. But Brett Humes said, 55 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:55,400 Speaker 2: this is music to the years of Vladimir Putin, the Trump, 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,560 Speaker 2: the Trump tweet, and it is Putin's got to be thinking, wow, Wow, 57 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 2: this is really helping me a lot. 58 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, Wall Street Journal Putin's got to be smiling ear 59 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 4: to ear National Review just and I you know, I 60 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 4: hear the voices of some of the like young angry 61 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 4: right saying that's because they're all globalist warmonger blah blah blah. 62 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,079 Speaker 4: To get in bed with Putin is to get in 63 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 4: bed with Satan. It's just it's awful. I am so 64 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 4: completely perplexed by Trump and what he's saying and what 65 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 4: his motivation is. The idea that Zelensky is a moderately 66 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 4: successful comedian. We could parse that phrase, what the hell 67 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,160 Speaker 4: does that have to do with anything? He's freely elected, 68 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 4: that this, this horrific war, which is ground a country 69 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,560 Speaker 4: down and practically killed him and still may is somehow 70 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 4: a gravy trained I just this is Kremlin generated bulls. 71 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: Well, and you can you can believe that it's no 72 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 2: big deal that Russia gets to keep twenty percent of 73 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 2: the land and basically gets away with the worst thing 74 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: any country has done in UH since the end of 75 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 2: World War two. But that's just a policy disagreement. It's 76 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,000 Speaker 2: not a policy disagreement for Trump to say Ukraine started it, 77 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 2: that's just right, What the hell is that? 78 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 4: Well, and the idea that well, they were too friendly 79 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 4: to the West, they talked about joining NATO, NATO expanded 80 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 4: to quickly. The Russians warned us that that was a 81 00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 4: trip wire. Blah blah blah. All of that stuff is true. 82 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,119 Speaker 4: But that absolutely to extrapolate from there to take the 83 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 4: Olympic world record setting leap from that too. Therefore, Ukraine 84 00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 4: started the invasion of their country, is just it. It's absurd. 85 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 4: I'll try not to be insulting. It's absurd. 86 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:53,520 Speaker 2: So different hot spot. Trump also has to deal with, obviously, 87 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: is Israel Gaza Hamas, that whole thing. Are we going 88 00:04:57,760 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 2: to take over Gaza and turn it into Gaza Lago 89 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,000 Speaker 2: or whatever is going to happen there. IDF just put 90 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: out a new report, that's the Israeli Defense Forces a 91 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: new report on October seventh, which is gonna, you know, 92 00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: be a big deal because you know, how the hell 93 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 2: did our security forces missed this and fall so flat 94 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 2: and it took all day long to rest to get 95 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,520 Speaker 2: to where the Hamas fighters had gone in and started 96 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 2: slaughtering people. I mean, all kinds of failures. But anyway, 97 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 2: part of the report. The most interesting finding from the 98 00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 2: IDF report on the October seventh attack on one of 99 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,040 Speaker 2: the kibbutzes is that only one hundred of the three 100 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 2: hundred and forty terrorists who entered the kibbutz were Hamas. 101 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: Two hundred and forty of the three hundred and forty 102 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 2: were Palestinian civilians. Seventy percent of the Palestinians who attacked 103 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,479 Speaker 2: that kibbutz were civilians, and this holds across the board. 104 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 2: Palestinian civilians made up the majority of the terrorists using 105 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: the finger quotes who attacked Israel in October seventh, So 106 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: how do you deal with that situation from a political standpoint? 107 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,320 Speaker 2: And then you've got this. We had this news yesterday. 108 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: It was very, very grim. I'll read it the way 109 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: ABC presented it. Breaking news on ABC. Hamas will release 110 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,320 Speaker 2: the bodies of four deceased hostages on Thursday and six 111 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,719 Speaker 2: living hostages on Saturday. Hamas and Israel confirmed four more 112 00:06:21,760 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 2: dead hostages will be released next week, according to israel As. 113 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: Jonah Goldberg pointed out tweeting this, according to any reasonable 114 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: law of morality, the hostages were murdered outright by Hamas. Deceased. 115 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 2: Using the term deceased is water carrying four the terrorists, 116 00:06:44,080 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: which is absolutely true. Just calling them deceased, you know, 117 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: they could have died in natural causes, our fellon, hit 118 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: their head or whatever. They were, including a mom and 119 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 2: two babies, by the way, the two youngest hostages. They're 120 00:06:54,960 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: going to get back the bodies because Hamas murdered them, 121 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: whether it starved them to death, beat them, deaths, split 122 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,040 Speaker 2: their throats, who knows, but mind through. 123 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,240 Speaker 4: The winds on October seventh, perhaps. 124 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, but mom and the two babies are dead, and 125 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 2: they were murdered by Hamas. And again seventy percent of 126 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: the people who had attacked the Israelis, including at that 127 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,400 Speaker 2: peace loving concert, were just Palestinian. That explains the cheering 128 00:07:18,440 --> 00:07:21,200 Speaker 2: in the streets when they went back into Gaza with 129 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 2: the either dead bodies or live women they were going 130 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: to rape some more. 131 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:30,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, I just go back to the giant demonstrations 132 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 4: of love and approval. After nine to eleven in the 133 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:39,920 Speaker 4: United States, Palestinian people were thrilled, thrilled that the Great Satan, 134 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 4: the great you know, the infidels had gotten kicked in 135 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 4: the pants. Loved it. 136 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:52,040 Speaker 2: So trying to non emotionally understand Trump's foreign policy, Why 137 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: is he so willing to jump ugly with a ran 138 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: which could turn into a war were involved in, while 139 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: so willing to give away the farm, in my opinion, 140 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 2: just to get out of the mess between Ukraine and Russia. 141 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,920 Speaker 4: That's a great question, and I do not have. 142 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 2: An answer, because if he's just a non intervention it's 143 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 2: like he doesn't want the United States involved in wars 144 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: that you know, don't he doesn't believe affect us. That's 145 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 2: a policy, you know, that's a foreign policy. That's a 146 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 2: point of view. Lots of people have had it, but 147 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,200 Speaker 2: it doesn't fit in with his willingness. It would seem 148 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 2: to probably help Israel attack Iran and maybe, you know, 149 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 2: start a war with a big country. 150 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't. I don't have any idea. I have 151 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 4: some theories. I would like to think about them more 152 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 4: and how to phrase them exactly when I offer them. 153 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 4: I'm very, very troubled by this. I will tell you 154 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 4: that from the moment Trump was elected, I had a 155 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 4: very very strong feeling that a lot of really really 156 00:08:54,679 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 4: great things were going to happen. Things that nobody else 157 00:08:57,760 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 4: has the balls or the you know, the innovative spirit, 158 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: or it cares so little about what's the norm in 159 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 4: DC like Trump does. He's so not a creature of 160 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:15,679 Speaker 4: the Beltway. I knew that this would be really, really 161 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 4: good Domestically. It's even better than I thought it would be. 162 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 4: It's fantastic, a plus a couple of mistakes. There's some 163 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 4: things that trouble me. The Eric Adams deal. We hadn't 164 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 4: really talked about that, but you knew there's going to 165 00:09:27,280 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 4: be a certain amount of crazy with Trump.

I mean, for instance, 339 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 4: I was reminded that there has never been a majority 340 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 4: in the main European countries that you think about, the 341 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 4: big European countries that were in favor of the rampant 342 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 4: immigration policies. That was never a majority popular issue in Europe. 343 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 4: The elite just decided to do it. 344 00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 2: Well, it's never been a majority popular in our country either, 345 00:19:56,960 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 2: and the elite decided to do it. And you see 346 00:19:58,840 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 2: the backlash that led to Trump getting reelected. 347 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,680 Speaker 4: And the fact that people are angry about that has 348 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,919 Speaker 4: been has brought on all sorts of restrictions on free speech. 349 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 4: Britain is unforgivable. For instance, at this point, there was, 350 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,479 Speaker 4: as if to prove Vance's point, there was this wild 351 00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 4: set to in London. A guy was burning a Koran 352 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 4: in a protest against the extremes of Islam and all 353 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 4: sorts of stuff, and a guy attacked him with a 354 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 4: giant knife and tried to hack him to death. Well, 355 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 4: the book burner has been charged with a religiously aggravated 356 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:35,600 Speaker 4: public order offense, and the knife wielder was released on bail. 357 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 4: So that's how bass ackwards a lot of britain Is 358 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 4: and Jade Vance called him on that. Anyway, we got 359 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 4: this note because we were hammering Germany for restricting free 360 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 4: speech and how what's her face on sixty minutes thought 361 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,880 Speaker 4: it was just delightful and kind of even funny that 362 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 4: people who were busted for saying rude things or obnoxious 363 00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,240 Speaker 4: things or untrue things were actually they were arrested by 364 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 4: the German place and fined or jailed or had their 365 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 4: device taken away or whatever. Anyway brings us to this note, 366 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 4: and it's from uh, we'll just say m who is 367 00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 4: married to a German national, and both of them listened 368 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:19,119 Speaker 4: to the podcast and enjoy it, and we thank them 369 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:22,560 Speaker 4: for listening. And she asked her her husband to put 370 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,879 Speaker 4: her thoughts into better English for her because it's her 371 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 4: second language. I'm sure the English is a hell of 372 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 4: a lot better than my German. Anyway, Germany has free speech, 373 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 4: but it must be polite. About a month ago, someone 374 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 4: wrote you and referred to Jack being Jack ass Armstrong 375 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 4: in your comment was it wasn't right, it was impolite 376 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,879 Speaker 4: and unnecessary. Last week, someone in the US legislature, said 377 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 4: f Trump. Actually, quite a few folks, I believe you 378 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,159 Speaker 4: see that the rhetoric in the US has become coarser 379 00:21:50,200 --> 00:21:52,479 Speaker 4: and meaner in the recent past, and the more people 380 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 4: behave and speak that way, the worst people's behavior becomes. 381 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:59,159 Speaker 4: Germans are polite people. They would never say Schultz is 382 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,440 Speaker 4: stupid or worse, they would say Schultz's ideas are not correct. 383 00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 4: If you're to watch the German debates you will see 384 00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 4: the behaviors of the participants are polite. Unlike in America, 385 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:10,960 Speaker 4: Germany had to deal with Hitler and the Nazis denigrating 386 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: the Jews and inciting abuse and violence toward them. As 387 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,560 Speaker 4: that was done, people's thoughts and actions followed the rhetoric. 388 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 4: Horrible events followed that speech. Germans are very sensitive about 389 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 4: their past and do not want it to happen again. 390 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 4: For that reason, speech that incites violence against, insults, denigrates, 391 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,639 Speaker 4: or hurts people of a national, ethnic, religious, or sexual 392 00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 4: minority is outlawed, so the past will not be relived. 393 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,480 Speaker 4: And then just a quick note before we get into 394 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,600 Speaker 4: a little discussion. She mentions that the AfD Alternatives for 395 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 4: Deutschland is a party in Germany. It has a voice 396 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 4: that as twenty percent of the people, but eighty percent 397 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,760 Speaker 4: of the politicians and Germans do not want to work 398 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 4: with AfD because of its core and extreme values. It's 399 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 4: also interesting, just as an asside, I was reminded that 400 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 4: Jade Vance was talking about all I'm sorry Elon Musk 401 00:22:57,240 --> 00:23:00,240 Speaker 4: was talking up the AfD and saying, you know, they're 402 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 4: right about a lot of stuff, and they are, but 403 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 4: they're harshly anti American. They really lean toward Russia and 404 00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:13,120 Speaker 4: are are extremely anti American. Yeah. So anyway, so here's 405 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:15,920 Speaker 4: the way I would respond to that, unless you were listening, 406 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:17,240 Speaker 4: Do you have anything you want to jump in with 407 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 4: right away? Germany is such an interesting case, and I've 408 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 4: spent some time there, and I know some Germans, and 409 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:25,880 Speaker 4: I know some people who spend a lot of time 410 00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 4: working and living in Germany, and I studied German language 411 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,080 Speaker 4: and culture for a long time. That does not make 412 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 4: me anything close to next what, No, don't anyway? 413 00:23:39,080 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: Do you have any memorabilia? 414 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 4: I do some, Yes, of course I do. So lovely 415 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 4: land full of fascinating people in landscape. Anyway, Germany is 416 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 4: such an interesting case because of it's the way that 417 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 4: carries from World War Two. Show me the way you 418 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 4: wave to people, just you know, extend my arm and 419 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 4: then move my hand anyway. 420 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:11,400 Speaker 2: Visual folks mocking the silliness of this sort of thing. 421 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 4: That's right exactly, Yes, indeed Nazi. So I don't want 422 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 4: to be completely unsympathetic to that legacy. And the idea 423 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 4: that whipping up ethnic and racial hatred against people leads 424 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:30,639 Speaker 4: down a very terrible path is undeniably true. Here is 425 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 4: the problem, though in company it absolutely has an upside, 426 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 4: it has a benefit, as you point out, but it 427 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 4: also is a ninety nine point three percent The Germans 428 00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 4: are very precise people, so I want to be very precise. 429 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 4: It's like ninety nine point three percent likely that those 430 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,000 Speaker 4: who control what is going to be censored and in 431 00:24:56,040 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 4: what way abuse that power of quashed descent, and they 432 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 4: cause the very ugliness that you're hoping to prevent. It's 433 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:12,120 Speaker 4: the American counter to your sentiment, which it was expressed 434 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 4: quite respectfully, and I appreciate that, and you made some 435 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 4: good points. Is Thomas Jefferson's famous statement that I would 436 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,639 Speaker 4: rather attend to the problems of too much liberty than 437 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,880 Speaker 4: too little. And there's absolutely a downside to the way 438 00:25:25,880 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 4: we do stuff. Absolutely true. On the other hand, we've 439 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 4: got a democracy for all it's ups and downs going on, 440 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 4: you know, two hundred and seventy five years or whatever 441 00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 4: it's it is at this point, or it's about to 442 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 4: be two hundred and fifty. Yeah, okay. And it's rough 443 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 4: and tumble and it's crazy and it's kind of ugly sometimes. 444 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 4: But nobody can get going a movement anything like the 445 00:25:57,440 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 4: Nazis because we have such a tradition of saying it 446 00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 4: out loud and arguing about it in public. You just 447 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:10,680 Speaker 4: can't get that sort of thing going behind the cloak 448 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,640 Speaker 4: at darkness. It's so in our DNA to share our 449 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 4: ideas with each other and try to convince each other 450 00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 4: of our ideas validity, even if they're ugly or stupid, 451 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:25,800 Speaker 4: and they are a lot. It keeps us healthy. I'm 452 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 4: probably doing a poor job of explaining this, But on 453 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 4: the one side, I trust no one to tell me 454 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,720 Speaker 4: what I can and can't say, because the entire history 455 00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 4: of humanity is that it goes badly. And I would 456 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 4: suggest that the Germans are have been until now a 457 00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:51,040 Speaker 4: very homogeneous society, very disciplined, very proud of being German. 458 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 4: You're much less homogeneous than you are now than you were. 459 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 4: You're going to find more and more people will undermine 460 00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 4: everything you hold. And if you can't call them on 461 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,880 Speaker 4: it out loud, and if they happen to be Muslim, 462 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,720 Speaker 4: for instance, say and it seems to be a lot 463 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 4: of Muslim people, that's gonna offend the crap out of them. 464 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,399 Speaker 4: That's a hurtful thing to say. But if it's true, 465 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 4: you have to be able to say it. 466 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe that that German fascist woman and it 467 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 2: is fascist for her to say on sixty minutes the 468 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 2: other night, with the approval of Face the nation that well, 469 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 2: if you don't have these rules on free speech, a 470 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: small number of people can control, you know, a certain 471 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 2: story and put it out there. Yeah, lady, So you 472 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 2: want a small number of people to decide what stories 473 00:27:38,840 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 2: are okay or not wow? And you're always gonna get 474 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 2: it right. You're always gonna get it right. You're you're 475 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,640 Speaker 2: how many times are people called racist in the United 476 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 2: States for various things? Because you come all the time 477 00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 2: and that person is or sexist. So if that person's 478 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 2: a woman or of any color, that you can just 479 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,040 Speaker 2: say it's sexist or racists, and then that little group 480 00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:02,360 Speaker 2: of fascists, that German woman would get to say that, 481 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 2: and you can't have that on the internet because that 482 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,160 Speaker 2: was sexist racism. No it wasn't. I was just commenting 483 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 2: on their thoughts. No, no, no, you only commented on 484 00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:11,639 Speaker 2: their thoughts because they're black or a woman. No, So 485 00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:14,920 Speaker 2: obviously she's going to control the discourse and it falls 486 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 2: apart immediately. I'd say it's one hundred percent of the 487 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 2: time it doesn't work. 488 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I would agree, because if you believe. 489 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: That people believe it would work that it still shocks me. 490 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 4: I guess it's incredibly naive. 491 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,399 Speaker 2: I guess it's because I've grown up with free speech. 492 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: I just how do you think, lady, that you and 493 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 2: a handful of people are going to be the arbitures 494 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 2: are what's okay and what's not? 495 00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 4: That's not what's what's insulting? In what's legitimate criticism? I 496 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 4: mean you? And it always works one way. That's the 497 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 4: other frustrating part to me. You could launch a carefully constructed, 498 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 4: historically substantiated argument against the Catholic Church, for instance, in Germany, 499 00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 4: and unleash that and be absolutely on solid ground. You 500 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,440 Speaker 4: do the same against Islam. Because it's a touchy subject. 501 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 4: Those in charge in order to keep the peace would 502 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 4: declare that offensive and insulting. So I guess a very 503 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 4: very short answer to that sentiment that, look, we just 504 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 4: keep it polite and we're just enforcing rules against impoliteness. 505 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 4: My answer to that was, there is no human being 506 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 4: on earth that I would trust with that power. 507 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:30,720 Speaker 2: Now, it's got to be cultural. The politeness has got 508 00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,960 Speaker 2: to be enforced culturally. You can't do it from a 509 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 2: censorship standpoint. It will never work exactly, and you read 510 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: my mind. I've been to throw that in. 511 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's got to be through social pressure, not the 512 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:44,000 Speaker 4: government's gun. Sorry, we'll finished strong. 513 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 2: Next, we talk a fair amount about AI. I read 514 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:53,000 Speaker 2: about it a lot, and then just modern technology in general. 515 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 2: I came across this article tempted by the false god 516 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 2: of convenience. What to watch for is AI speeds forward 517 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 2: Actually talk about John Phillips SUSA, which if you were 518 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 2: in a marching band, you know who that is. He 519 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 2: wrote all the most famous marching band songs that ever existed. Anyway, 520 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 2: way back in nineteen oh six, he'd cried recorded music 521 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,840 Speaker 2: coming on the scene and thought it was gonna ruin everything. 522 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 2: That you wouldn't need to learn to play the piano 523 00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 2: because you could just get a recording of it. Uh, 524 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 2: it was right. 525 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:25,600 Speaker 4: I think. 526 00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 2: He also went on to say, when a mother can 527 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 2: turn on the phonograph with the same ease that she 528 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 2: applies to the electric light, will she croon her baby 529 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,600 Speaker 2: to slumber with sleet lullabies? Or will the infant be 530 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 2: put to sleep by machinery as it says in this 531 00:30:40,440 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: article in the age of tablet clutching children, this ought 532 00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 2: to hit home. But the point really here is from 533 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,360 Speaker 2: Neo Postman. You might know that name. He wrote the 534 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 2: famous book Amusing Ourselves to Death, which I've never read. 535 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 2: I can't believe I've never read that book. I've quoted 536 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 2: so many different parts, but I've never actually read. Came 537 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 2: out in nineteen eighty five. But he had rules for technology. 538 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:04,480 Speaker 2: He had five rules. But the main gist of it 539 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 2: is is that anytime there's a technological advance, there is 540 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 2: a trade off, and that we should look closely at 541 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: the trade offs and decide whether or not we're comfortable 542 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 2: with that trade off before we go forward. And maybe 543 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,040 Speaker 2: sometimes you'll think, Yeah, I'm okay with the trade off, 544 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 2: and sometimes maybe we should think we aren't. The things 545 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 2: that you lose, but tempted by the false god of 546 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:30,479 Speaker 2: convenience is really going to exponentially explode with AI, is 547 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:34,360 Speaker 2: making everything effortless actually going to be better for us. 548 00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: If we can have a robot that does all the 549 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 2: laundry and the dishes and modes of lawn and blah blah, 550 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,680 Speaker 2: does everything, will we will that actually be good? Or not? 551 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: We should? We should think through. 552 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 4: No, it'll kill kill mankind. It's the worst thing that 553 00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:51,520 Speaker 4: could possibly happen. I mean between the fact that the 554 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 4: idle hands of the devil's play things that it's only 555 00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,360 Speaker 4: adversity that gives us strength. It's only the need to 556 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 4: do the basics that give us the brain power to 557 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:02,600 Speaker 4: do the advanced. We talked about that study from Microsoft 558 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:07,200 Speaker 4: that people who are empowered by AI, that AI deals 559 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:09,720 Speaker 4: with all the basic stuff so they can just deal 560 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 4: with the exceptions. They found that the people get weaker 561 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 4: and weaker at being able to deal with the exceptions 562 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 4: because they aren't strengthened over and over again by dealing 563 00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 4: with the regular stuff. It'll be the end of mankind, 564 00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:25,280 Speaker 4: which is fine. I'm old. I've had my run. Good luck, 565 00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 4: y'all usher in the planet of the Beaters. 566 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 1: Ready to. 567 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:42,720 Speaker 2: Again. I'd be fine with that if it didn't include 568 00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:47,200 Speaker 2: perhaps my children being miserable their whole lives along with 569 00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:48,240 Speaker 2: the rest of society. 570 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:51,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I get that. 571 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 2: Here's your host for final thoughts, Joe Getty. I don't 572 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,360 Speaker 2: know what to do about that, so I've just accepted it. 573 00:32:57,960 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 4: Mm hm, so I know what to do about the 574 00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 4: Get a final thought from everybody on the crew. Michael 575 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:04,760 Speaker 4: Angelow lead us off, Jack, you were talking about baseball 576 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 4: rules for this upcoming season. I got to confirm this, 577 00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 4: but I believe during the playoffs they're going to add 578 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 4: a fourth base. There you go, make it more exciting, 579 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: you know. 580 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:17,560 Speaker 2: Exactly, and it's in a different spot. Every games constantly 581 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: learns that other face. 582 00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 4: It's like a video game. Katie Green are deemed Newswoman. 583 00:33:21,520 --> 00:33:23,840 Speaker 4: As a final thought, Katie, I agree with most of 584 00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 4: what you guys say, but I'm under robot that does 585 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:31,960 Speaker 4: laundry is not the end of man. Better a laundry bot. 586 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:35,320 Speaker 4: I will allow it, Yes, Jack, final thought. 587 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 2: Just since you brought up baseball, Michael I heard this 588 00:33:37,640 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 2: morning the LA Dodgers, who won the World Series with 589 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,440 Speaker 2: the biggest payroll in all of baseball, have added like 590 00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 2: a half dozen really expensive more players this year. They 591 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:52,560 Speaker 2: have double the average salary of other teams in Major 592 00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,360 Speaker 2: League Baseball and like five times as much as the 593 00:33:55,360 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 2: bottom third. So we'll see how this works out. 594 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,880 Speaker 4: My final thought is be sure to watch the USA 595 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 4: Canada hockey game tomorrow night. The last game between the 596 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 4: two teams featured three fights in the first nine seconds, yes, 597 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:12,960 Speaker 4: right in the five holes. It was well that you're 598 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,160 Speaker 4: trying to punch each other in the head. Actually they're 599 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:16,239 Speaker 4: grown men. But ho. 600 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,200 Speaker 2: The entertainments Armstrong and Game wrapping up another grueling four 601 00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: hour workdays. 602 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,480 Speaker 4: So many people, thanks so little time.
