00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,920
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty arm Strong

00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: and Katty and He Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:34,639
Speaker 2: I'm not you know, I'm not trying to impress you.

5
00:00:35,200 --> 00:00:38,519
Speaker 2: I'm just trying to impress upon you. I'm like you.

6
00:00:39,640 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 2: I'm no better than you.

7
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 1: I'm an idiot, I'm stupid. What you can't fit a

8
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:48,840
Speaker 1: man of ice cream?

9
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 3: Stead If you heard the like longer version that Mark

10
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,000
Speaker 3: Halprin had to drag out of him, it's a fairly

11
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,400
Speaker 3: compelling story of a learning disability that he was able

12
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 3: to overcome and become a sixesimul guy. But if you

13
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,240
Speaker 3: just sit in front of people and say, hey, you dumb,

14
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,679
Speaker 3: I'm dumb too. I can't even read, you know, if

15
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 3: you present like that, it's not that handy.

16
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. A couple of great articles out in the last

17
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,240
Speaker 1: couple of days, one in the Wall Street Journal about

18
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: it's hard to find somebody with the strength and the

19
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,199
Speaker 1: stamina and the smarts to run for president.

20
00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 4: It's extremely difficult.

21
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's going to speak to that in a few

22
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 3: minutes with another part of an interview.

23
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:29,960
Speaker 1: Right, And it's by a guy by the name of

24
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:35,039
Speaker 1: Kenneth Kachigian, and the he highlights AOC and Gavin and

25
00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,119
Speaker 1: I wish we had time to get into the AOC thing.

26
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,399
Speaker 1: I'll just read you a very short bit of it

27
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 1: for starters. AOC is public speaking is agonizingly amateurish. She

28
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: reads speeches like a seventh grader. Her eyes start up

29
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: and down in a manner that Betray wrote memorization, not scholarship,

30
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: et cetera, et cetera. And then he gets into Gavin

31
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 1: Newsom in the poorer circuit, on the interview circuit with

32
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,480
Speaker 1: the book and the I'm like you, I'm no better

33
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,680
Speaker 1: than you, and he gets into how that was just terrible.

34
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 1: We've covered that pretty thoroughly. But then he says, for

35
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: the twenty two years since he became mayor of San Francisco,

36
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: mister Newsom hasn't driven the freeways or pumped his own gasoline.

37
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 4: It sad.

38
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 1: Bodyguards protecting him in public California political media, with a

39
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: few exceptions, have been friendly or neutral. His governance reflects

40
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,720
Speaker 1: a generational failure to dive into the substance of policy

41
00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:29,399
Speaker 1: and study the political and cultural depths of the American people, etc.

42
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 1: He just does not have the stuff, he says. And

43
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 1: then in the Free Press, Newsom looks small in the

44
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 1: face of a big war. He's tried to make himself

45
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 1: a national figure and a figure who's into foreign policy.

46
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 4: With the war, and let's see who is this.

47
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,200
Speaker 1: In the Free Press, Peter Savadnik writes was unsettling to

48
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: watch California Governor Gavin Newsom on Monday spouting off a

49
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: rejiggered blood libel this week, and not simply because Democrats

50
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,160
Speaker 1: have mostly succumbed to fashionable jew eight quote. We have

51
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,080
Speaker 1: to reconcile our bombs were used or Israeli bombs were

52
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: used to kill children, young girls at a school, and

53
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 1: what the imminent threat was he said at a press

54
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 1: conference meant to slam Donald Trump's war on Iran. Might

55
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,240
Speaker 1: sound Anna dyne, who could possibly be against saving little girls,

56
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: But it's not. It's the old trope of the Jew

57
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: as murderer of gentile children and more to the point,

58
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,440
Speaker 1: the asymmetrical anger when it comes to all things Jewish.

59
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:26,799
Speaker 1: Apologies Israel I'm sorry, I apologize Israeli never mind.

60
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 4: Then he goes into the details of it, but he had.

61
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,640
Speaker 1: No harsh words at all, for the Mullahs had no

62
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: harsh words for machine gunning the people of Iran in

63
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: the streets.

64
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:39,800
Speaker 4: And then he's the final shot is right now?

65
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: The most important thing is that the front runner for

66
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 1: the twenty eight Democratic presidential nomination seems congenitally incapable of

67
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: rising above his tribe and conceiving of the war as

68
00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 1: anything other than yet another opportunity for politicking, for taking

69
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: a few shots and scoring some points.

70
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 4: Is way too important for that.

71
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's interesting because it would have been so easy

72
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:03,120
Speaker 3: to come out and say, I'm glad the Ayatola is gone.

73
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: There's a terrible regime. We're better off without it. But

74
00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 3: we got to do this smart. We all remember Iraq,

75
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:13,080
Speaker 3: you know that sort of thing.

76
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, would it be easy to do. Yeah, he's really

77
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: steered into the Israel's in apartheid state. Yeah, blah blah blah.

78
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,360
Speaker 4: Er shouldn't let them force us into war.

79
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:30,280
Speaker 3: I mean, the number of politicians that get drug into

80
00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 3: the Twitter conversation as if Twitter is America, it's practically everybody.

81
00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's one of.

82
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 3: The things Trump understands better than a lot of other

83
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 3: people that Twitter is not America.

84
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 1: I've been saying for a while, like Gavy cannot hit

85
00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: major league pitching. He's the product of one party, very

86
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,479
Speaker 1: soft media state. He's never faced major league pitching and

87
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 1: he can't hit it. But putting aside the specifics, you've

88
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:02,200
Speaker 1: got his record which is just unbelievably terrible and so

89
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:04,200
Speaker 1: easy to hang around his neck. A couple of recent

90
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,799
Speaker 1: interviews we thought were illustrative. Let's start with the clip

91
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: sixty Michael. It's Katie Couric, who apparently is still podcasting

92
00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,960
Speaker 1: or something with Gavin Newsom.

93
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 5: It's poverty rate tied with Louisiana the highest unemployment, and

94
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 5: as Nick Christoph of The New York Times recently wrote,

95
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 5: Mississippi schools outperformed California schools, especially for poor kids. Now

96
00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 5: people see that or hear that or read that, and

97
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 5: they're like, no thanks California, No thanks, Gavin Newsom, We're good.

98
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:35,119
Speaker 4: Yeah.

99
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 2: Well, the poverty rate is you're talking about the supplemental

100
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 2: poverty rate.

101
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,360
Speaker 4: Our cavity rates about average.

102
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 2: And we're right up there with Florida and Louisiana and

103
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,479
Speaker 2: others with the supplemental poverty rate, which has been the

104
00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 2: case for forty years. And the original sin. There is housing,

105
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,919
Speaker 2: which has been a problem in California since Ronald Reagan

106
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: left office as governor, and we simply have a supplied

107
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,880
Speaker 2: demand in balance, and we have zoning policies and nimbiism

108
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: that have been legendary, and we've finally broken it. Was

109
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 2: some of the most progressive housing reforms in US history.

110
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 2: Our biggest critics, like Ezra Kleine, would even acknowledge that

111
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 2: progress in that respect.

112
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 1: Ezra Kline is not your biggest critic. Oh my god,

113
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: that's hilarious. That's pretty funny.

114
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, that places record is abysmal.

115
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:24,480
Speaker 1: He is very skilled, though, at pointing to the problems

116
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:29,240
Speaker 1: that decades of democratic rule have brought California and saying

117
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 1: this is a challenge we're taking on.

118
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,440
Speaker 4: We're taking it on boldly and innovatively.

119
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 3: I understand why politicians don't bring people along for the ride.

120
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 3: What's the supplemental poverty rate? I don't know what that is.

121
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 3: Why wouldn't he explain it? Maybe because it hurts his argument.

122
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,359
Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know. I have no idea what it means.

123
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,160
Speaker 3: And then do you want to set up the clip

124
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,160
Speaker 3: with Mark Halpern. Yeah, this is not This is definitely

125
00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:53,040
Speaker 3: not a bashion Gavin Newsom sort of clips. It's just

126
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,640
Speaker 3: a gives you an idea for one thing, what it's

127
00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 3: like to run for president. Gavin does present this as

128
00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 3: unique to him, but I guarant it's true for anybody

129
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,599
Speaker 3: who ever decides.

130
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,479
Speaker 4: To try to run for the biggest office in the world.

131
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:09,040
Speaker 6: So what would you say to all the people, including

132
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 6: i'll say governor, some of your own advisors who contact

133
00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 6: me and say, Mark, you look like an idiot when

134
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 6: you say got to do Some might not run or

135
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 6: won't run.

136
00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 4: What would you say to all those people?

137
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:23,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, just that they're wrong and they should be cautious

138
00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 2: about that. That said, look, you got to have I've

139
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:27,280
Speaker 2: said this one hundred times.

140
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: It's the niche set.

141
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 2: You gotta have a big enough why to endure any how.

142
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 2: You just describe the how, how the hell you endure

143
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 2: the slings and arrows. These guys, look, I'm not They

144
00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:37,680
Speaker 2: want to take me out. And you don't even know

145
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: the half of it. You all think you know the

146
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 2: half of it. Everybody you're writing, you don't know the

147
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:43,120
Speaker 2: half of what these guys are doing.

148
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 4: The Trump administrations do it.

149
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,640
Speaker 2: You know what they're capable of doing, you know, intuitively

150
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: what they're doing. I have a better sense of what

151
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 2: they actually are doing.

152
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,040
Speaker 4: This. This is zero sum for them. They want to

153
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 4: flatten me. I get it. So it's not that.

154
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 2: But you know what, right now, the reason I'm leaning

155
00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 2: in is because I have a why and it's burning

156
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 2: and I'm gonna stand up and I'm gonna draw a line.

157
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:05,280
Speaker 2: And we Drew Lawnes literally here with proposition fifty and

158
00:08:05,320 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna push back, and I'm gonna push it and

159
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 2: I'm gonna hit this bully back in the mouth. I

160
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 2: don't like what's going on in this country. I don't period,

161
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 2: full stop. I'm not counting it. And anyway, I don't

162
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,160
Speaker 2: like what's going on primetime Fox. I don't. I don't

163
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,680
Speaker 2: like the racism, the anti I don't like any of this.

164
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: And so I'm gonna call it out. If I feel

165
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: that way, You sure as hell better know that I

166
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,400
Speaker 2: will run for president as it relates to the future

167
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 2: of this country. But you're right that has to be

168
00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 2: backed up with the family first, and I will not

169
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,839
Speaker 2: screw that up. So your answer is, yes, they all

170
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:36,360
Speaker 2: have a veto. Every single one of those kids have

171
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 2: a veto.

172
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,559
Speaker 1: If you have a burning in your wy you probably

173
00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 1: need a shot of a penicillin. But yeah, your state

174
00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:49,559
Speaker 1: mandates that parents not be told that little children are

175
00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:53,640
Speaker 1: gender transitioning at school. Your state mandates that kids be

176
00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:58,240
Speaker 1: caught taught critical queer theory and transgender theory.

177
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,200
Speaker 4: It's in the law.

178
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,080
Speaker 3: Nobody wants that to that stuff of You don't know

179
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 3: the half they're trying to take me out. You don't

180
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 3: know half of that what they're willing to do. And

181
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 3: he's acting like it's the Trump people, Rama Manual's people, ah,

182
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 3: what's her name? Are the vice president who just ran

183
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 3: Kamala Harris's people, Josh Shapiro's people, They're gonna come at

184
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:28,400
Speaker 3: him just as hard or already. Are so pretending like

185
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:31,040
Speaker 3: it's just the Trump crowd that wants to lay him out.

186
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 3: I know enough about I've read enough books about people

187
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 3: who run for president. You got to get through your

188
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,120
Speaker 3: own party first, and that's where the fights are usually

189
00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:42,679
Speaker 3: the nastiest. Right, So, but that is an interesting one.

190
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,439
Speaker 3: I don't know if I believe it. I think some

191
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:48,480
Speaker 3: people legit don't run for office because of what it

192
00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 3: would do for their family. I think he's he's wondering,

193
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 3: what do they have, what do they not have?

194
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: What do they know? What do they not know?

195
00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:57,200
Speaker 3: And if it crosses a certain line, if it would

196
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 3: be painful enough for him, he might He's not gonna run.

197
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,319
Speaker 3: But I don't think it's each kid gets a veto.

198
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: And if one kid says, I don't.

199
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,719
Speaker 1: Want you to dad, I've got baseball season, I don't

200
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 1: think that's Honestly, I wor you. Gavin was saying, I'm

201
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 1: not willing to be that mean, but that was me

202
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:14,199
Speaker 1: iver attracted.

203
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 4: I really do.

204
00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,679
Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna let that be the primary decision.

205
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree, and you know, the lawlessness will

206
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,920
Speaker 1: be hung around his neck. California led the way in

207
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: locking up even four dollars products. You just can't buy

208
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,719
Speaker 1: things at stores because there's so much crime, and that's

209
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: going to be impossible to get through. But back to

210
00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,360
Speaker 1: your point about the primary process, this sort of thing

211
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: will come up, and I'll end with this thought. Mister

212
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:43,360
Speaker 1: Newsom's original sponsor and mentor California is legendary. Willie Brown

213
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:47,280
Speaker 1: told Politico that mister Newsom is formidable because he's quote

214
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,200
Speaker 1: a movie star. Politico then asked, quote, is it clear

215
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,120
Speaker 1: what Newsom actually believes? Brown answered quote, I don't know.

216
00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 1: I've never asked him. For fear, he doesn't for fear

217
00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:01,120
Speaker 1: he doesn't know. Oh wow. And then this mister Kachigian

218
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: who wrote this article said miss Ronald Reagan was an

219
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: actual movie star, but he knew what he believed. Wow.

220
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: Can you run on? You might be able to actually

221
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:17,560
Speaker 1: can you run on? Only? I oppose Trump. Trump is awful,

222
00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: thinks he can.

223
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: I think it'd be harder for him to get the

224
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 3: nomination than to become president. But I could be wrong.

225
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 3: I just think they're good. The other Democrats are just

226
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 3: gonna kill him. Rum Immanuel is going to subject him

227
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 3: to such a beating. They're going to step in and

228
00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 3: stop the fight.

229
00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: It's gonna be like when that transgender fellas started punching

230
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 1: the poor women in the Olympics. Everybody's going to react

231
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:51,199
Speaker 1: with how stop rom stop the last Jake Paul fight be.

232
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 4: Like that exactly.

233
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:56,120
Speaker 1: I think it's interesting that Mark Alprin's still going with

234
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:04,079
Speaker 1: the I don't even think he's gonna run angle. I yeah,

235
00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 1: it's possible. I mean, for the love of God, it

236
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 1: is March of twenty twenty six, as we speak these words,

237
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:17,760
Speaker 1: I think his missteps and mediocrity will just accumulate and

238
00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 1: accumulate to the point that no, the donors say, no.

239
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:20,240
Speaker 4: Thank you.

240
00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 3: I think it'd be a pretty big void though, if

241
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:25,720
Speaker 3: he decided, if he announced he's not running, it's all

242
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 3: of a sudden, really wide open.

243
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,319
Speaker 1: Then. Yeah, But as I was pointing out, by the

244
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 1: day it, you know, could happen over the course of

245
00:12:32,480 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: the next year, a year and a half, and other

246
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 1: other folks will step to the four people will start

247
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 1: announcing here in eight months, nine months, which is a

248
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 1: long time, no doubt about that. I think I had

249
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,920
Speaker 1: one more thing I was going to say about this.

250
00:12:45,040 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: I remember what I was givin hiss running for prison.

251
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: Oh always.

252
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,360
Speaker 3: You remember clear back to two thousand and four, Al

253
00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 3: Gore came within like a you know, couple of votes

254
00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 3: of being President of the United States, that announced in

255
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,839
Speaker 3: two thousand and four. Everybody assumed he was going to

256
00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,800
Speaker 3: run again, that he'd be the walk away nomine and

257
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,520
Speaker 3: then just announced I'm not running. So you never know

258
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,199
Speaker 3: what people have got going on in their lives. And

259
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 3: then he this climate scam going. You can't believe how

260
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,520
Speaker 3: much money I'm making right, which might have been part

261
00:13:12,520 --> 00:13:14,600
Speaker 3: of it. Okay, we got more on the way stare

262
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 3: So the key to this here topical news joke from

263
00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 3: Jimmy Fallon.

264
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: Here is the crowd reaction. Here we go. President Trump

265
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:47,679
Speaker 1: fired Christine nome kta just in case you didn't hear

266
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: me out.

267
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: Wow, yeah, Christine nom is out. In response, tome said,

268
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 2: if my face could move, it would look really sad.

269
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:56,679
Speaker 4: Right now.

270
00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 1: That was quite the crowd react into that news.

271
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 4: Well, she has no constituency left.

272
00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 3: How much of that is I don't like the way

273
00:14:08,679 --> 00:14:10,640
Speaker 3: immigrants are being treated, and how much of that is

274
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: just a blow against the Trump crowd.

275
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 4: I think it's mostly the latter. Hm, I disagree.

276
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,840
Speaker 1: I think the I think that the craziness of Minneapolis

277
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: turns so many people against DHS and ICE. I was

278
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 1: just looking at the ASP. But she's got no Republican

279
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 1: support either. She has just no supporters.

280
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:36,240
Speaker 4: I'm trying to.

281
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 3: I've been trying to figure out this for a long time.

282
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 3: If this is just flat misogynist to comment on her

283
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,880
Speaker 3: really really cares a lot about looking sexy as a

284
00:14:47,920 --> 00:14:52,560
Speaker 3: government official, That just seems weird to me, is that wrong?

285
00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 3: And massages? I mean Pete Exit good looking guy. You know,

286
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:57,240
Speaker 3: he makes sure his hair looks cool and he wears

287
00:14:57,320 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 3: really tight T shirts a lot to show off the

288
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: how you know how Buffy is all the time?

289
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: Is that exactly the same thing.

290
00:15:02,520 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 3: But man her with their shiny lips in the wear

291
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,480
Speaker 3: it's in a at work is just it's most people.

292
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:12,560
Speaker 1: Most women aren't like that at work. Yeah. I don't

293
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 1: think it's massages that word you used exactly, but you

294
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: gotta be careful. There's a bigger gulf between a woman

295
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 1: who looks very good in business like and somebody who's

296
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 1: glammed up were dudes. It's there's really not a lot

297
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:32,200
Speaker 1: of difference. I dress to impress a woman. I look

298
00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,560
Speaker 1: like I'm running for president. True, that's true. But I

299
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 1: just saw the ads of her.

300
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 3: The two hundred million dollar add by the lot of

301
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: went to friends of hers, maybe rightly maybe wrongly that

302
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 3: she blamed on Trump. And that's the real reason I

303
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,200
Speaker 3: think that she got fired because when she was questioned

304
00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 3: the other day, did Trump know about this?

305
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: Oh?

306
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely, Trump apparently did not know about that. And don't

307
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:54,640
Speaker 3: you freaking hang me out on this?

308
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:55,600
Speaker 1: No, way.

309
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:58,360
Speaker 3: That's when that was a no, you're done. But I

310
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 3: saw the ads of her on the horse and a

311
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,240
Speaker 3: cowboy hat, and they're looking like you look like you're

312
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 3: running for Miss America. I mean, there's just no getting

313
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 3: around it. You're super tight jeans and shirt. You look

314
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 3: like you're running from Miss America or trying to be

315
00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 3: an influencer or something. I mean, I guess specifically you

316
00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 3: are trying to influence people or your policies about the border.

317
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,920
Speaker 1: But I don't know.

318
00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,840
Speaker 3: A weird look for somebody that got a very serious job.

319
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 4: And she's out now. So that's that.

320
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 3: Harry Styles has a new album out, which I'm kind

321
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 3: of excited about because I'm Harry Styles fan. The name

322
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 3: of it is Funny Kiss All the Time Disco Occasionally.

323
00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 3: That's a funny name for an album, kind of like

324
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: his music. But since I brought up celebrity stuff a

325
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 3: friend of mine, we were talking yesterday about people who

326
00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:47,520
Speaker 3: go out, we're out of time.

327
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:49,760
Speaker 1: Damn, it ran out of time before I got to

328
00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,640
Speaker 1: the punchline. That's painful.

329
00:16:53,360 --> 00:16:56,600
Speaker 3: We were talking yesterday about people who refer to the

330
00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 3: news and it's like TMZ more entertainment Tonight or whatever

331
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,520
Speaker 3: like that. That's what they call the news. I'll get

332
00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:05,680
Speaker 3: to that a little bit later. Jack wants to talk

333
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 3: about Harry Styles. I want to talk about assisted suicide

334
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 3: in Canada.

335
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 4: Something for everyone coming up. Oh I can stay too that.

336
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 1: Oh my god.

337
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, if you've missed this, likeing, we get the podcast

338
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,400
Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty on demand.

339
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:20,440
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty.

340
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,560
Speaker 7: We have a Fox News poll and it reveals a

341
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:27,680
Speaker 7: record thirty eight percent of voters think the US shifting

342
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,679
Speaker 7: toward socialism would be a good thing. It comes as

343
00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 7: voters are split on whether capitalism is working amid the

344
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:34,960
Speaker 7: affordability crisis.

345
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,439
Speaker 1: That's nice, and here they break it down a little bit.

346
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 7: Says the ones that are backing socialism moving more towards

347
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:47,520
Speaker 7: socialism the very liberal voters at sixty six percent, Democrats

348
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,560
Speaker 7: under the age of forty five sixty six percent, and

349
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,520
Speaker 7: voters under the age of thirty fifty three percent. The

350
00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 7: biggest supporter graph of capitalism Republican men eighty seven percent.

351
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,040
Speaker 8: Yeah, and if you go deep, we're into it. The

352
00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:05,400
Speaker 8: number of men over forty five seventy five percent say

353
00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 8: socialism is a bad thing. So middle aged men in

354
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 8: America are going to save the country.

355
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,720
Speaker 1: You're welcome for that.

356
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 4: So.

357
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 1: Worth noting that.

358
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 3: And it's not that I'm not worried that way too

359
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,479
Speaker 3: many people favor socialism two thirds of Democrats under forty

360
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 3: five for first.

361
00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,640
Speaker 1: Socialism or leaning socialism.

362
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 3: But it is true that so many people now call

363
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 3: themselves independent that if you use the number for Republicans

364
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,439
Speaker 3: or Democrats, both sides can use it to paint the

365
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,760
Speaker 3: other side is extreme because all the a lot of

366
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:46,080
Speaker 3: the normal people in both parties have now called themselves independents,

367
00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 3: because hardly anybody wants to be attached to either party

368
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,880
Speaker 3: at this point. So you can use a poll about

369
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 3: Republicans or Democrats and say, look it out crazy there,

370
00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,640
Speaker 3: But you're really only talking about a small a lot

371
00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 3: of the Republicans don't all themselves Republicans anymore.

372
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 1: Same with Democrats. Interesting, I'm not sure this is a

373
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: great example of that on the Republican side, just because

374
00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: to me, anybody who's against free markets is a lunatic.

375
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 4: But I see your point. It's worth keeping in mind.

376
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't doubt that two thirds of Democrats under

377
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 3: forty five favorite socialism. I just think there's an awful

378
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,959
Speaker 3: lot of democrats under forty five, they don't call themselves

379
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,639
Speaker 3: democrats anymore. Right, probably vote Democrat a lot, but they

380
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,359
Speaker 3: don't call themselves democrats because they don't want to be

381
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 3: attached to all the trans lunacy or Kamala Harris or

382
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of other stuff or the racism.

383
00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:33,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

384
00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,720
Speaker 1: Uh, do you have you seen the rough numbers lately?

385
00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:41,440
Speaker 1: Who identifies as Republican independent Democrat? Uh? Well, it's a

386
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: Remember we had the number one and long ago.

387
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 3: The smallest number of people call themselves democrats ever was

388
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,600
Speaker 3: on that. Yeah, so it's it's like a third of

389
00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 3: the whole countries, it's and most people aren't. You're either

390
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:57,640
Speaker 3: a Republican Democrat, you just don't want to be attached

391
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 3: to that party. Right, Definitely one direction or the other

392
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 3: in the way you vote.

393
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:03,320
Speaker 4: Yeah.

394
00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: The enduring con job that is pushing socialism. The fact

395
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 1: that that can't be killed it says, it's like a cockroach,

396
00:20:12,800 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 1: is amazing to me. That is the most successful scam

397
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:16,560
Speaker 1: ever designed.

398
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:21,199
Speaker 3: Well, it doesn't take much explanation to educate somebody to

399
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 3: why it doesn't work. But they ain't doing that in school.

400
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,480
Speaker 3: They're doing it my son's private school. But they aren't

401
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:28,680
Speaker 3: doing it in regular school. Nobody's taking the time to say,

402
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 3: here's why socialism has failed everywhere it's ever worked. Do

403
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 3: the whole grade thing that would be popular in class.

404
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 3: How about if I did this? How about if I

405
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,480
Speaker 3: took all the a's and spread them out and we

406
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 3: all got B minuses. Those of you who get a's

407
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:45,760
Speaker 3: you be happy with that. The people who get great

408
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:48,360
Speaker 3: grades would stop working hard. The people who get poor

409
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 3: grades would definitely never work hard. Right, what does that

410
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 3: do to the economy of grades?

411
00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:54,280
Speaker 4: Yeah?

412
00:20:54,560 --> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 1: I mean, isn't it. I'm done conversion completely right. It

413
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,600
Speaker 1: would take you roughly ten minutes if that long.

414
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,679
Speaker 3: That's a that's with a break for going to get

415
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 3: a drink or peeing in your Folger's coffee can or

416
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 3: whatever it is you do. If you don't know that story,

417
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 3: oh boy, you should google it. It's troubling.

418
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,040
Speaker 1: Oh you know, I'm really not in the mood on

419
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: a Friday to talk about the assisted suicide in Canada.

420
00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,679
Speaker 1: I will tell you though, it reminds me at least

421
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: somewhat of the socialism argument, in that the unintended consequences

422
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 1: of what sounds like a reasonable idea just they cascade

423
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:40,080
Speaker 1: and they grow and the Hugh. It sounds great in theory,

424
00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,120
Speaker 1: but if you know anything about how rotten human beings

425
00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:47,439
Speaker 1: can be, it just quickly becomes far far uglier than

426
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:48,280
Speaker 1: you thought it could.

427
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,160
Speaker 4: And again, the fact that you have.

428
00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: To re argue that in terms of socialism is probably

429
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 1: just because it's being taught as a wonderful thing in

430
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,680
Speaker 1: our schools by a bunch of neo Marxist teachers and teachers' unions,

431
00:21:57,800 --> 00:21:59,680
Speaker 1: and I despise them to my bones.

432
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 3: So it did come up a couple times this week,

433
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 3: people who call Entertainment Tonight the news right or TMZ

434
00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: the news, which I think fits in a little with

435
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:17,399
Speaker 3: the Iran War in that most people as a listener

436
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 3: to podcasts the other day, and a whole bunch of

437
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 3: pundits are on there and they're saying the number one

438
00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,639
Speaker 3: question they got from people about the Iran War was

439
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 3: why did this happen? Because nobody was paying any attention

440
00:22:28,400 --> 00:22:30,119
Speaker 3: to the fact that we were building up all this

441
00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,720
Speaker 3: military might and warning them about the nuclear stuffing.

442
00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:33,919
Speaker 1: Nobody's paying attention to that.

443
00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 3: I don't know if they're watching entertainment news or sports

444
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,239
Speaker 3: or whatever, but very few people were paying attention, and

445
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 3: the President certainly did not go out of his way

446
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 3: to alert us AnyWho got this text from a friend

447
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 3: of mine, Joe was telling a story about his some

448
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 3: of you cut your hair that referred to. All she

449
00:22:56,240 --> 00:22:59,159
Speaker 3: talked about was celebrities stories. Oh, she's a physical therapist.

450
00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:00,280
Speaker 3: Physical therapist, that's what it.

451
00:23:00,480 --> 00:23:00,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

452
00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was her only passion, and she had a

453
00:23:04,400 --> 00:23:08,240
Speaker 1: really good bud. She she was a very fit young woman, yes, Michael,

454
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:14,560
Speaker 1: but her passion was celebrity notes yes, which I started

455
00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: watching Don't Look Up with my fourteen year old the movie,

456
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,440
Speaker 1: and one of the features of that is.

457
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,639
Speaker 3: The character played by Leonardo DiCaprio. He's a scientist who

458
00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:27,679
Speaker 3: just discovered a comment is going to hit Earth and

459
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 3: destroy all life, and he can't get anybody care pay

460
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 3: attention to the modern world, and he's getting ready to

461
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,439
Speaker 3: go on like the Today Show, and they end up

462
00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 3: interviewing a young pop star played by Ariana Grande, which

463
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 3: made it kind of funny. Who all they want to

464
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 3: talk about is her celebrity breakup. We saw on Twitter

465
00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,520
Speaker 3: that you and a different pop star broke up, and

466
00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:50,560
Speaker 3: the crowd and then talk about the breakup of the celebrities,

467
00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 3: and he's like, why is nobody interested that the comedy.

468
00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,400
Speaker 1: Is going to destroy her? Right?

469
00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 3: But that's pretty accurate, is to where we are? And

470
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,359
Speaker 3: we got this text. U Joe's story made me laugh.

471
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 3: I worked with a nurse who was gorgeous, and she

472
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:09,280
Speaker 3: would routinely come in and say the craziest stuff. Did

473
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,959
Speaker 3: you watch the news last night? Always referring to entertainment tonight.

474
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,159
Speaker 3: She always complained that buying groceries for her kids was

475
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 3: such a waste. They just ate it and it was gone.

476
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 3: But if she bought designer jeans or the latest makeup,

477
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:22,680
Speaker 3: it really lasted.

478
00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:24,880
Speaker 1: Does it give you an idea of.

479
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,320
Speaker 3: The intelligence of the sort of person that follows celebrity

480
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,680
Speaker 3: news versus real news? Wow, that's a good one. Buying

481
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 3: food for the kids and such a waste. They just

482
00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:33,960
Speaker 3: eat it and it's gone. But if I buy these jeans,

483
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 3: I have them for a long time.

484
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 4: It's a good point.

485
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,920
Speaker 1: She and her husband picked all their kids' names from

486
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: soap operas. Wow. Wow, oh my god, I feel like

487
00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:49,720
Speaker 1: I'm at the human Zoo watching a display on the right.

488
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 4: Look how they live, honey.

489
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 1: So that's a poll.

490
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 3: I would like to know what percentage of people the

491
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,679
Speaker 3: news is Britney spears DUI as opposed to we've sent

492
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 3: another aircraft carrier to the Middle East, so you couldn't,

493
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 3: you know, force this by laws the first Amendment. But

494
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:11,280
Speaker 3: I wish the polling organizations would somehow like grade everybody

495
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 3: on level of awareness, and there's no need to be demeaning,

496
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:18,200
Speaker 3: you know what, morons?

497
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: All right, let's call the bottom group morons. I was

498
00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:26,600
Speaker 1: that was that was an easy sell, and then the

499
00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: dimly aware, the paying attention, the acutely aware, and then

500
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,479
Speaker 1: maybe the expert class. And you'd eliminate the expert class

501
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:44,000
Speaker 1: probably and the morons from your polling or I don't know,

502
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:48,040
Speaker 1: but the idea of pulling a bunch of people who say,

503
00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 1: why are we attacking her? On about attacking Iran is

504
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 1: the definition of uselessness, except I guess in terms of

505
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: retail politics, because ignoramuses can vote to a practice I

506
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:04,640
Speaker 1: will stamp out when I am emperor.

507
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:06,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, I heard this number the other day, and I'd

508
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,960
Speaker 3: never heard of it before. I've been meaning to verify

509
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 3: it. It came from a very credible source that only twenty

510
00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 3: nine percent of people follow politics real news, and only

511
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,560
Speaker 3: fourteen percent so roughly half of them.

512
00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:21,320
Speaker 1: Follow it closely.

513
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 3: So following closely enough to really understand what's going on

514
00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:26,399
Speaker 3: is fourteen percent.

515
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,000
Speaker 1: That sounds about right to me.

516
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:31,240
Speaker 3: I mean, since in most elections prior to Trump, only

517
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,480
Speaker 3: about a half of people voted.

518
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:36,239
Speaker 1: Even in a presidential election. That other half is just man.

519
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:37,399
Speaker 8: I have.

520
00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:44,600
Speaker 3: In recent months met more people that have decided that

521
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,480
Speaker 3: either maybe they've always been checked out or said, yeah,

522
00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 3: I just gave up, I checked out.

523
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 1: I just I don't even pay attention anymore.

524
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:51,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

525
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,000
Speaker 3: Part of it is, as our old producer Sean used

526
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 3: to say, every story comes as a homework assignment. Everything

527
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 3: you hear, you have to Okay, I guess I better

528
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:03,119
Speaker 3: try to figure out if this is completely true, completely false,

529
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:07,679
Speaker 3: or you know some portion of that. Right, Everything you hear,

530
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,960
Speaker 3: and it's tiring, it's exhausting. At some point, I could

531
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 3: see how you decide that I just.

532
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:16,359
Speaker 1: Won't pay attention. Plus the fever pitch, plus the incredible

533
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:20,639
Speaker 1: size and complexity of the government, at this point, it's

534
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:24,320
Speaker 1: it's too much to ask, and that we need, we

535
00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 1: need an informed citizenry that would take four lifetimes I've

536
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:29,600
Speaker 1: heard different versions of this too.

537
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 3: One person that recently decided a couple of different business things,

538
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:36,040
Speaker 3: divorced things, whatever had happened, and they just thought the

539
00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:37,919
Speaker 3: injustice of the way it turned out was so awful

540
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 3: that there's no consequences for anything. So I'm just not

541
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 3: paying attention anymore. Nobody gets any consequences. You can rob

542
00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 3: people blind, you can commit crimes and get out over

543
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 3: and over again.

544
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:47,160
Speaker 1: I just give up.

545
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,960
Speaker 3: So there's that crowd, right. And then I know a

546
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:51,800
Speaker 3: guy many many years ago. He was a little older,

547
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 3: but he had been in Vietnam and he felt he

548
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,120
Speaker 3: had been so lied to by his government that he

549
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:00,680
Speaker 3: just completely checked out for the rest of his life

550
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:05,520
Speaker 3: on all politics. Seemed pretty happy. I can't fault him

551
00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:10,520
Speaker 3: for that. He seemed pretty damned happy with that decision. Now, obviously,

552
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 3: you can't run a democracy with people with everybody doing that.

553
00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: No, No, it's a problem. It's a serious problem. I'm

554
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 1: somewhat reminded of some Van Jones clips we have talking

555
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 1: about the Iran conflict and the way people are behaving politically,

556
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: and he looks at both sides.

557
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 4: It's pretty compelling. We'll squeeze that in if we can.

558
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,560
Speaker 3: Oh, quick question, because I just looked up the TV

559
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:36,120
Speaker 3: and saw the Paralympics are underway. The Paralympics that people

560
00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,360
Speaker 3: who are handy capable. It's also in Italy though the

561
00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 3: Winter Paralympics. China is dominating the Winter Paralympics. Do you

562
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 3: have any idea why that would be a guess, I don't.

563
00:28:45,680 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: The cold warrior and me wants to take a shot

564
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: at China, but just to sheer population, I'm guessing just

565
00:28:50,520 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 1: plaining more people. But they have more people for the

566
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:57,000
Speaker 1: regular Olympics too, and they didn't dominate, maybe because they've

567
00:28:57,080 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 1: crippled so many dissidents by beating them and torturing them.

568
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:01,680
Speaker 4: And they put them on skis. Out of there.

569
00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: I couldn't help myself, they could not. Then they put

570
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 1: them on skis, is what he said. Okay, more on

571
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: the waist they here. My oldest son turned sixteen tomorrow,

572
00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,719
Speaker 1: and it is more shocking to me than I can

573
00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:26,160
Speaker 1: possibly tell you. M Yeah, I know what you mean.

574
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: Why does that happen? Just happens? I guess times just

575
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 1: a concept man, accept it not? It keeps moving. So

576
00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 1: have you heard about these these prediction markets? You're like

577
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: your polymarket and your Calshi.

578
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 4: Isn't that a cereal? Is that cashy?

579
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:45,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what's a it's a betting site, what's

580
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 1: a cereal? And what's a tea drink? For hipstercy I

581
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: put a thousand dollars bet on Macha the other day

582
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 1: saying that the US would end It's about Me campaign anyway,

583
00:29:56,600 --> 00:29:59,719
Speaker 1: a bunch of headlines about those prediction markets. We mentioned

584
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: very very briefly the other day that somebody had made

585
00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:07,600
Speaker 1: a bet related to the death of the Ayatola, and

586
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 1: Calshi is refusing to pay out winnings on a fifty

587
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 1: four million dollar trade. Many betters have assumed they won

588
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: big wagers that he would be out as Supreme Leader

589
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,800
Speaker 1: by Saturday. But Calcian American prediction market that allows users

590
00:30:21,840 --> 00:30:24,000
Speaker 1: to bet on politics, sports, foreign affairs, and pop culture

591
00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: and all sorts of stuff, announced it would not be

592
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,720
Speaker 1: paying out any winnings on those wagers since its guidelines

593
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 1: prohibit markets quote directly tied to death.

594
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:35,200
Speaker 4: Their users are outraged by this.

595
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:38,680
Speaker 1: You know, I got to get into this, but I

596
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,520
Speaker 1: haven't because I mean, I obviously followed the news like

597
00:30:41,560 --> 00:30:45,280
Speaker 1: a maniac, and that puts you at a real advantage.

598
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, as at first against the idea of you can't

599
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,200
Speaker 3: bet on anything, we're death's involved. But I can see

600
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 3: you don't want I mean, if you got pictures out

601
00:30:53,520 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 3: there throwing the pitch straight into the ground to make

602
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 3: sure they win a bet, you don't want anybody amp

603
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 3: and up death to win a Sure.

604
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,040
Speaker 1: Is there somebody who would murder somebody else for a

605
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:03,760
Speaker 1: million dollars?

606
00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 4: Yes? Yeah, it's the probably two people out of every ten.

607
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 1: You have a dark if. Oh, don't get me started. So,

608
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 1: but I really ought to get into it. It's probably laziness. Well,

609
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: I'm busy, this job is time consuming, and uh maybe

610
00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: I just I'm not desperate for money. I don't know,

611
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: but it's clearly something I ought to be doing. I

612
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 1: spend an hour a week on it.

613
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,800
Speaker 3: Right, I know we're about this then you know who's

614
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 3: going to win a football game? I'm sure handicapping candidates

615
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 3: and issues and bills and whatever. Anyway, moving along, there's

616
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:38,000
Speaker 3: a big.

617
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:41,480
Speaker 1: Article in the Wall Street Journal today about the these

618
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,880
Speaker 1: markets and it's let's see what does this start with?

619
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:47,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, okay.

620
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 1: The mentions market tries to predict the unpredictable Trump's next words,

621
00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: so you can even predict whether Trump will use the

622
00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:01,760
Speaker 1: word for instance, for instance, hottest in his address to

623
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 1: the nation. Hunkered down in the dark room, Max Carroza

624
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:06,400
Speaker 1: watch riveted as President Trump gave a speech on the

625
00:32:06,480 --> 00:32:09,720
Speaker 1: US economy. Hottest, Hottest, Come on, he pleaded to his screen.

626
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,160
Speaker 1: Then it came we have the hottest country in the world.

627
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: The President declared, Yes, let's go. Corrosso whooped, pumping his fist.

628
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,240
Speaker 1: The twenty year old big box store manager in Westchester,

629
00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,640
Speaker 1: Pennsylvania had just made sixty four dollars by correctly betting

630
00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: that Trump would say hottest. I think I would have

631
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:27,200
Speaker 1: made that bet.

632
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 4: Uh.

633
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, So that's how mundane it can be.

634
00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:36,719
Speaker 3: That's practically like you know, how long the national anthem

635
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 3: is for the Super Bowl in terms of.

636
00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 1: Mundane. Right. But here's another interesting angle to it, and

637
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 1: this especially applies to government officials. There are various people

638
00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: who made a crapload of money on when the US

639
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:55,600
Speaker 1: bombing campaign would start, even though it was secret.

640
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,000
Speaker 4: I would have been wrong in that one.

641
00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, but quite a few people were very, very right,

642
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,920
Speaker 1: to the point that it's like, uh, you're familiar.

643
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 3: With Pentagon planning. You're close to the president. Well, it's

644
00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 3: the same way they caught these sports stars. You see

645
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:14,719
Speaker 3: a whole bunch of You see that they placed bets

646
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 3: or had a bunch of activity betting various sites at

647
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 3: the same time that they all of a sudden pulled

648
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:21,120
Speaker 3: up lame in the second quarter.

649
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 4: Right.

650
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,480
Speaker 1: So this other article in the journal from Like Today,

651
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,240
Speaker 1: I think is about a couple of things, including the

652
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: fact that these markets are marketing themselves like crazy on

653
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 1: college campuses. They are spending zillions of dollars to market

654
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:43,200
Speaker 1: themselves to college kids who think they're smart and have

655
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: a little disposable income at all. And they mentioned that

656
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,760
Speaker 1: this fraternity at the University of Miami that attracts the

657
00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:52,000
Speaker 1: children of the very wealthy, including the step son of

658
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:53,080
Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos.

659
00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:55,360
Speaker 4: They were making.

660
00:33:55,520 --> 00:33:58,959
Speaker 1: Predictions as to what celebrities would show up at the

661
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, and the odds of Bezos attending were high,

662
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: a potential jackpot for anyone who actually knew his weekend

663
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,520
Speaker 1: plans which did not involve a trip to Levi's stadium,

664
00:34:09,960 --> 00:34:13,399
Speaker 1: and some fraternity brothers began placing bets that Bezos would

665
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 1: not attend. Two people who bet said the original source

666
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,319
Speaker 1: of the information was the steps on himself, although neither

667
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: heard it directly. Blah blah blah. So it's about a

668
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:25,480
Speaker 1: these these companies are.

669
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,320
Speaker 4: Like paying.

670
00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,319
Speaker 1: Enormous amounts of money for a fraternity to have a

671
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:34,560
Speaker 1: giant blowout party in return for if you sign up

672
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:39,120
Speaker 1: fifty of your members as new Calshi or polymarket members.

673
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:45,080
Speaker 1: But then they go into the suspected insiders who made

674
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:47,919
Speaker 1: one point two million dollars wagering that the US would

675
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: strike Iran last month. So this whole deal is getting

676
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:54,719
Speaker 1: murky and mobbed up. And man, I got to jump

677
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,719
Speaker 1: on these sites and see if there's any categories that

678
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,720
Speaker 1: I feel like I'm particularly knowledgeable about. Well, it's it'll lasts.

679
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,560
Speaker 1: I mean I should have like sold a haven new

680
00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,080
Speaker 1: some short a couple of weeks ago before his embarrassing

681
00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:07,560
Speaker 1: book tour.

682
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:08,800
Speaker 4: Well you knew it was coming.

683
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 3: You were big on Joe Biden would not be the

684
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,239
Speaker 3: nominee for a very long time.

685
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 4: Oh I could have made a mint. Yeah, just not

686
00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 4: greedy enough. That's one of my faults. I'll try to

687
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:19,080
Speaker 4: get greedy.

688
00:35:19,080 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: One of your faults is you're not greedy enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

689
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,040
Speaker 1: it's a weakness, it's an interesting fault.

690
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 4: So we either read a book.

691
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,719
