WEBVTT - Could I Call Myself Breezy Johnson?

0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George

0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:24.880
<v Speaker 2>Arm Strong and Jati and he Armstrong and Yetty. So

0:00:24.960 --> 0:00:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I've been thinking it might be time to hang it

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:40.640
<v Speaker 2>up about one last time together. I love to call boy.

0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 2>So that's the one that set me off.

0:00:48.159 --> 0:00:51.080
<v Speaker 1>There the old farmer and his daughter and then you

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:53.880
<v Speaker 1>got that cool acoustic guitar music and the singing and

0:00:53.920 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>when she has a little girl, he taught her how

0:00:55.600 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 1>to grow crops and they work together and blah blah blah.

0:00:58.760 --> 0:01:00.960
<v Speaker 1>Now he's given her the farm because he's retired and everything,

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:02.160
<v Speaker 1>and it's love.

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:04.400
<v Speaker 2>For lais potato chips.

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:08.319
<v Speaker 3>Such gigantic industrial potato chip manufacturer, And.

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:10.560
<v Speaker 1>There's just lots of ads like that, And I just

0:01:11.080 --> 0:01:16.440
<v Speaker 1>am I to cynical? Or is it appropriate for me

0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>to not like you trying to make me cry about

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:24.160
<v Speaker 1>a flipping potato chip or a dog food or a

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>soda or anything else like that some but now commercial product,

0:01:29.959 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 1>I just I find that I don't like.

0:01:31.959 --> 0:01:34.840
<v Speaker 3>It, or a beer which is about making me forget

0:01:34.920 --> 0:01:37.200
<v Speaker 3>my problems, not cry about yours.

0:01:37.720 --> 0:01:41.040
<v Speaker 1>I just don't And does it work? Is there anybody

0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:45.280
<v Speaker 1>that eats one more chip? Because they yeah, fathers and

0:01:45.400 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>daughters coming together and this and that, and.

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:53.000
<v Speaker 3>You know, in truth the butt ad with the eagle

0:01:53.160 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 3>riding the clients tale. At least they winked at the

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:56.760
<v Speaker 3>audience at the.

0:01:57.400 --> 0:02:00.520
<v Speaker 2>End of that one. The audio you crying, there's suns

0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>in my eyes. What were they see?

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:06.640
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to tell because the tugue at your heartstrings

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 1>trying to make you cry about a potato chip is

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 1>not many notches away from willing to be willing to

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:18.680
<v Speaker 1>put a bald eagle on your on your product, AMRCA. Yeah, yeah,

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 1>the halftime show sent a different message, Budweiser.

0:02:22.440 --> 0:02:24.040
<v Speaker 2>Everything's ruined in the modern world.

0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.679
<v Speaker 1>I finally saw the video of the streaker that ran

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:29.360
<v Speaker 1>on the field, which of course they did not show

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:32.480
<v Speaker 1>during the broadcast during the second half of the Super Bowl.

0:02:32.720 --> 0:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>But because every plenty in Knudedy it's a half time.

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no kidding, but because everybody there's got a cell phone,

0:02:37.600 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>there's lots of videos.

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:40.639
<v Speaker 2>So I just finally looked at him. He's wearing pants.

0:02:41.000 --> 0:02:42.840
<v Speaker 1>That's how bad things are in America right now. Our

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:46.919
<v Speaker 1>streakers wear pants. What's happened to what has happened.

0:02:46.600 --> 0:02:47.360
<v Speaker 2>In this country?

0:02:47.560 --> 0:02:50.600
<v Speaker 1>So it's just a shirtless guy running in his pants

0:02:50.639 --> 0:02:53.520
<v Speaker 1>and socks, and then one of and they can't catch

0:02:53.560 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 1>him because he's pretty fast. And then one of the

0:02:56.840 --> 0:02:59.800
<v Speaker 1>defensive backs for the Patriots goes screaming after him, and

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 1>he closes fast as you would expect him to, yes,

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>and then the guy slides on the ground like a

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>quarterback trying to avoid getting hit because he realizes, oh,

0:03:07.120 --> 0:03:08.799
<v Speaker 1>I cannot run this guy. And then a bunch of

0:03:08.800 --> 0:03:11.040
<v Speaker 1>people jump on him, so he didn't get the whoopan man,

0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:13.679
<v Speaker 1>if he had taken one more step, that Patriot was

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna put a serious I'm frustrated at.

0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 3>This game, right whooping on him? You would wait for

0:03:20.880 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 3>you to run around the field, jackass.

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.799
<v Speaker 1>You would not want a twenty two year old professional

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>defensive back to hit you at full speed while you're

0:03:28.600 --> 0:03:29.639
<v Speaker 1>running across the field.

0:03:29.840 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 2>That one.

0:03:30.200 --> 0:03:32.600
<v Speaker 1>We're wearing a helmet and shoulder pads that can hurt

0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:33.680
<v Speaker 1>the rest of your life.

0:03:33.880 --> 0:03:37.160
<v Speaker 2>So you ever walked again? Yeah? No kidding. I want

0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:38.920
<v Speaker 2>to get this off my chest.

0:03:39.600 --> 0:03:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say it in Spanish so the new fans

0:03:42.480 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 1>of the NFL can understand me.

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:49.520
<v Speaker 2>L NFL Esta muerta parami. The NFL is dead to me, Well,

0:03:49.560 --> 0:03:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I doubt it. You're gonna keep watching games.

0:03:52.040 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 3>I took a couple of years off after the George

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 3>Floyd madness, but then I kind of came back like

0:03:57.600 --> 0:04:00.920
<v Speaker 3>a junkie and put up with the idiotic. It takes

0:04:00.960 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 3>all of us on the backs of helmets, meaningless greeting card, rhetoric,

0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:06.640
<v Speaker 3>gesturing to the woke.

0:04:06.840 --> 0:04:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Whatever.

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.920
<v Speaker 3>But no, now they've punched me in the face again.

0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 3>Ghose times is too many.

0:04:13.800 --> 0:04:15.920
<v Speaker 1>So we got a number of texts agreeing with us

0:04:15.920 --> 0:04:18.719
<v Speaker 1>about a halftime show, and brief version is, I'm not

0:04:18.720 --> 0:04:21.560
<v Speaker 1>complaining about the music, because that's every year. You know,

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:23.880
<v Speaker 1>different people have different tastes in music, and it is

0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:25.839
<v Speaker 1>the worst because you don't like that kind of music.

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:28.479
<v Speaker 2>I don't do that kind of complaining. It's just, you know, whatever,

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:29.159
<v Speaker 2>different tastes.

0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.280
<v Speaker 1>But to have it in a different language and not

0:04:32.320 --> 0:04:36.120
<v Speaker 1>even make an effort to have me involved, I found

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>really actually offensive. And we got this text, I love

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>how much the halftime show bothered you to poor fragile

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Joe and Jack. It was your worst nightmare Multicultural America.

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:46.520
<v Speaker 2>The horror.

0:04:46.960 --> 0:04:49.120
<v Speaker 1>My suggestion to help you feel better, go watch Trump's

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:53.440
<v Speaker 1>video depicting Obama and Michelle as apes. That should soothe

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>your racist ditch. Can't wait until the midterms.

0:04:56.839 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 3>So that's a trolling, a non argument, and see a

0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:07.279
<v Speaker 3>false comparison. So to reject Trump's Obama video is to

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:11.320
<v Speaker 3>embrace an entirely Spanish super Bowl halftime show. You, my friend,

0:05:11.400 --> 0:05:14.880
<v Speaker 3>have only anger and vitriol and not the capacity to

0:05:15.040 --> 0:05:16.080
<v Speaker 3>think with your brain.

0:05:16.160 --> 0:05:17.839
<v Speaker 2>I pity you, sore.

0:05:18.080 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 1>There was some sort of effort message going with the

0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:26.080
<v Speaker 1>super Bowl halftime show, obviously, because I did some research.

0:05:26.760 --> 0:05:34.440
<v Speaker 1>I thought, how many people in America speak only Spanish?

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Because lots and lots of people speak Spanish, but they

0:05:37.200 --> 0:05:40.080
<v Speaker 1>also speak English. And the best at I could come

0:05:40.200 --> 0:05:43.799
<v Speaker 1>up with, from Gallup to Census Bureau and everything like that,

0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:50.599
<v Speaker 1>putting it all together, the most generous is eight percent.

0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.839
<v Speaker 1>It's single digits. It's probably closer to like two or

0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:57.039
<v Speaker 1>three percent. And as Joe said, that crowd probably wasn't

0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.840
<v Speaker 1>watching the super Bowl, so that I must point out,

0:06:00.440 --> 0:06:05.600
<v Speaker 1>you could have watched it on Telemundo. True, so there's

0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>like practically nobody watching that halftime show that only speaks Spanish.

0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:15.000
<v Speaker 1>Yet they put it in Spanish only, including the little

0:06:15.240 --> 0:06:18.440
<v Speaker 1>still picture at the beginning of the musical play, that

0:06:18.480 --> 0:06:21.200
<v Speaker 1>would have described for me what I was about to see,

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:23.839
<v Speaker 1>so at least I could try to follow along. But

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 1>you put that in Spanish without subtitles. You wouldn't even

0:06:27.400 --> 0:06:30.560
<v Speaker 1>put subtitles on that for ninety eight percent of your

0:06:30.600 --> 0:06:32.440
<v Speaker 1>audience who doesn't speak Spanish.

0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>So what is the message there? I think it's unmistakable, Yes, Katie.

0:06:38.640 --> 0:06:42.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm seeing videos popping up of shots from inside the

0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 4>stadium during the halftime show, and everybody has is just

0:06:46.240 --> 0:06:48.600
<v Speaker 4>standing there with their arms crossed. Most of them, I

0:06:48.600 --> 0:06:50.880
<v Speaker 4>would imagine, I'd say a good eighty percent of them.

0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:53.920
<v Speaker 3>Are probably because the vast majority of them are English speakers.

0:06:54.040 --> 0:06:58.040
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yes, Well again, you'd have to be a Spanish

0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.680
<v Speaker 1>only speaker too to.

0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Think that was necessary. I don't understand.

0:07:06.200 --> 0:07:09.400
<v Speaker 3>Interestingly, Jim Garritty of the National Review, who's a very

0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 3>reasonable chap points out that there is Daddy. You may

0:07:16.200 --> 0:07:19.760
<v Speaker 3>recall we talked about this showing the Taylor Swift effect

0:07:20.440 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 3>on viewership of Chiefs games and advertising rates and stuff

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:29.240
<v Speaker 3>like that, and she generated hundreds of millions of dollars

0:07:29.240 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 3>for the NFL across all equivalent brand values. I don't

0:07:32.480 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 3>doubt that a bit radio, digital, news, print, news, et cetera.

0:07:37.200 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 3>And he goes into a bit of detail on that.

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:43.520
<v Speaker 3>Now you can quibble with the particular numbers, but there's

0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.560
<v Speaker 3>no doubt that a whole lot of Taylor Swift fans

0:07:45.560 --> 0:07:47.920
<v Speaker 3>start buying Travis Kelce jerseys and watching the game who

0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 3>otherwise would not have made those purchases or watched those games.

0:07:50.640 --> 0:07:53.560
<v Speaker 3>Whether we like football, whether we football fans like it

0:07:53.680 --> 0:07:55.680
<v Speaker 3>or not, Goodell in the league are going to continue

0:07:55.720 --> 0:07:57.320
<v Speaker 3>to try to sell the game to people who aren't

0:07:57.320 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 3>that into football. Next year, the NFL is going to

0:07:59.720 --> 0:08:07.920
<v Speaker 3>play nine regular season games in overseas stadiums Australia, Brazil, Paris, Munich, Spain,

0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:12.640
<v Speaker 3>Mexico City, three games in London. Goodell, seemingly with the

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 3>consent of the owners, is determined to turn the NFL

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.760
<v Speaker 3>into a global game. And he doesn't just mean geographically,

0:08:17.800 --> 0:08:20.640
<v Speaker 3>it means across all demographics and corners of society.

0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:21.160
<v Speaker 2>So that's it.

0:08:21.360 --> 0:08:26.360
<v Speaker 1>I feel like there's a parable involving a goose that

0:08:26.440 --> 0:08:32.480
<v Speaker 1>could lay golden eggs that because they're counting on you

0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:36.719
<v Speaker 1>won't care that one of your team's home games that

0:08:36.880 --> 0:08:41.360
<v Speaker 1>you would have gone to won't exist because it'll be

0:08:41.720 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>in another country.

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:44.520
<v Speaker 2>You'll still watch because you love.

0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Football so much. That's what they're counting on, and they

0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:49.080
<v Speaker 1>might be right. They might be right, and they'll turn

0:08:49.120 --> 0:08:50.760
<v Speaker 1>it into a you know, I don't know what the

0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:54.360
<v Speaker 1>numbers are. It's huge, but they'll turn it into a

0:08:54.400 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 1>five billion dollar business per year to a fifty billion

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:00.600
<v Speaker 1>by expanding.

0:09:00.760 --> 0:09:02.640
<v Speaker 2>And you know, if they think they can do that,

0:09:02.640 --> 0:09:03.600
<v Speaker 2>that's a pretty good wager.

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:05.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, those games are kind of sucky and weird because

0:09:05.960 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 3>the stadiums are pretty quiet, generally speaking, and the teams

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:11.080
<v Speaker 3>have been traveling for hours an hours well.

0:09:10.920 --> 0:09:12.840
<v Speaker 1>And if you go to games, you're missing out on

0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:17.920
<v Speaker 1>a game you could go to right right, but or

0:09:17.960 --> 0:09:20.200
<v Speaker 1>at least home field advantage for one of the teams,

0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure.

0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:24.640
<v Speaker 3>Roger Goodell, who's a very very smart man, said to himself,

0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 3>all right, what percentage of the current audience will we

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:34.280
<v Speaker 3>like so offend we will lose them as opposed to

0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.400
<v Speaker 3>the Spanish speaking world, How many of them will take

0:09:37.440 --> 0:09:40.079
<v Speaker 3>this as a big wet kiss? And he did the

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:42.000
<v Speaker 3>numbers and thought, it's with the riskless do it.

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:43.040
<v Speaker 2>That's it period.

0:09:43.160 --> 0:09:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I'd see it more culturally where well do you

0:09:45.800 --> 0:09:46.920
<v Speaker 1>have to Hillary Clinton clip?

0:09:46.920 --> 0:09:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Wherever that is? Can you figure out what number that is?

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:51.840
<v Speaker 2>Hillary Clinton? We played the whole clip of this last week.

0:09:52.960 --> 0:09:55.079
<v Speaker 1>When Hillary was running for president in two thousand and

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.959
<v Speaker 1>eight against Barack Obama, she gave a strong speech about

0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.760
<v Speaker 1>illegal immigration. Now illegally they need to get in line.

0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 1>They committed a crime, they need to pay their back.

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.840
<v Speaker 1>The visor needs to be a penalty and this.

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:08.439
<v Speaker 2>And you have to try to learn English.

0:10:08.480 --> 0:10:10.840
<v Speaker 1>So as recently as two thousand and eight, you could

0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 1>go around saying and if you're here, you need to

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:16.480
<v Speaker 1>learn English because in this country we speak English. To

0:10:17.480 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 1>the halftime show yesterday without a word of English and

0:10:20.040 --> 0:10:21.880
<v Speaker 1>not even the slightest help.

0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:27.680
<v Speaker 2>With understanding what was going on. He's there are a lot,

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:28.680
<v Speaker 2>a lot of people.

0:10:29.760 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I gotta believe the majority of people who didn't dig

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.280
<v Speaker 1>that being in all Spanish.

0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:38.840
<v Speaker 2>And our idiot troll who text you at.

0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:42.719
<v Speaker 1>Early racism to want your entertainment to be in your

0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:43.559
<v Speaker 1>own language?

0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:45.439
<v Speaker 2>How is that racism?

0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, good lord, if I go to a movie

0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 1>and it's in a different language and there's no subtitles,

0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:51.240
<v Speaker 1>why am I here?

0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, anybody who had claim that is just again, I'm moron,

0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 3>and I'm not going to waste my time arguing with them.

0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:01.319
<v Speaker 3>You know, all of a sudden, the branch having a

0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 3>halftime show.

0:11:02.040 --> 0:11:05.760
<v Speaker 2>That's entirely in Mandarin. I mean, what are they supposed

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:06.040
<v Speaker 2>to do?

0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:09.840
<v Speaker 3>Cheer for the diversity of it and the idea that

0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:12.400
<v Speaker 3>here it comes multicultural America.

0:11:13.120 --> 0:11:17.400
<v Speaker 2>Good luck with that. Yeah, No shared values, no shared history.

0:11:17.160 --> 0:11:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Not a show language that's never worked anywhere in the

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 1>history of the planet.

0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:24.240
<v Speaker 3>No common reverence for the principles of the country. No,

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:26.880
<v Speaker 3>just everybody does their own thing. Good luck with that, friend,

0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:30.520
<v Speaker 3>good luck. And it's not a xenophobia thing at all.

0:11:30.559 --> 0:11:33.200
<v Speaker 3>I like to travel, I like exploring. I've been studying

0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:37.280
<v Speaker 3>foreign foreign cultures and governments since I was a kid.

0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:38.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm fascinated by it.

0:11:38.800 --> 0:11:43.040
<v Speaker 3>But the idea that you can have a multi cultural

0:11:43.120 --> 0:11:44.320
<v Speaker 3>country is foolish.

0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:48.360
<v Speaker 1>You're threatened by the browning of America. Okay, do you

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:50.240
<v Speaker 1>have some of the lyrics for us when we come back?

0:11:50.559 --> 0:11:54.760
<v Speaker 1>I do, absolutely charming. I actually don't know anything about

0:11:54.760 --> 0:11:56.760
<v Speaker 1>the lyrics of any of the songs.

0:11:57.760 --> 0:12:01.120
<v Speaker 3>Children, Hid your wives, Hide your hosband and tied your grandparents.

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Okay, your and your text four one, five, two nine KFTC.

0:12:11.360 --> 0:12:14.080
<v Speaker 5>This is your favorite president and this message is for

0:12:14.360 --> 0:12:18.599
<v Speaker 5>bad Bunny, whereas I call him the nasty rabbit Elkanejo

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:22.240
<v Speaker 5>desa gradable. He's a nasty rabbit and a stupid rabbit.

0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:25.559
<v Speaker 1>That is not actually Donald Trump, but Donald Trump did

0:12:25.559 --> 0:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>put out a post very similar to that. By the way,

0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:31.320
<v Speaker 1>we got several texts from people who say, my wife

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:34.120
<v Speaker 1>or husband speaks fluent Spanish and couldn't understand it what

0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:37.080
<v Speaker 1>he said, Well that that certainly could be true. I

0:12:37.120 --> 0:12:39.560
<v Speaker 1>watched Kendrick Lamar last year and I don't know if

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I understood a word of that, and it was in.

0:12:41.600 --> 0:12:42.199
<v Speaker 2>English, so.

0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, and again, taste in music varies. I don't

0:12:47.200 --> 0:12:50.439
<v Speaker 3>happen to love hip hop. I'm never going to love it.

0:12:50.480 --> 0:12:52.760
<v Speaker 3>Some's very very clever and smart, but it's just not

0:12:52.840 --> 0:12:53.680
<v Speaker 3>my thing, and that's fine.

0:12:53.720 --> 0:12:55.520
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people like it. I'm not threatened by that.

0:12:55.640 --> 0:13:00.960
<v Speaker 3>It's it's great, but the specifics of it the entirely Spanish,

0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:03.360
<v Speaker 3>with not a single effort to bring around or bring

0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 3>along the English speaking audience, and the particulars of the

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:08.920
<v Speaker 3>lyrics which had to be bleeped out a fair amount,

0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:12.679
<v Speaker 3>as you may have noticed. For instance, Tito mi pragunto.

0:13:13.320 --> 0:13:15.560
<v Speaker 3>And he asked me, if I have a lot of girlfriends, ay,

0:13:15.679 --> 0:13:17.920
<v Speaker 3>a lot of girlfriends. Today I have won. Tomorrow I'll

0:13:17.920 --> 0:13:20.360
<v Speaker 3>have another hat. But there's no wedding. And he asked me,

0:13:20.400 --> 0:13:22.880
<v Speaker 3>if I have a lot of girlfriends, repeat, I'm going

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:25.520
<v Speaker 3>to take them all to the VIP the vip. Hey

0:13:25.679 --> 0:13:28.280
<v Speaker 3>say hello to Auntie. Let's take a selfie, say cheese.

0:13:28.520 --> 0:13:31.920
<v Speaker 3>Let the ones already f smile in a vip va

0:13:31.960 --> 0:13:35.040
<v Speaker 3>a p ai and it goes on in that manner.

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:37.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, and he lists all the girls.

0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:41.600
<v Speaker 3>He's stopping the one from Barcelona that came by plane

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.560
<v Speaker 3>and says that my D is on fire.

0:13:45.720 --> 0:13:52.560
<v Speaker 1>See a doctor, get a shot. They got a shot. Now. Well,

0:13:52.600 --> 0:13:57.280
<v Speaker 1>I've always been confused by why halftime music is so sexual,

0:13:57.520 --> 0:13:59.080
<v Speaker 1>given it's the middle of the day.

0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Are watching, Well, he's been surprised by that. Uh, got

0:14:03.720 --> 0:14:04.600
<v Speaker 2>another good one for you.

0:14:05.600 --> 0:14:07.920
<v Speaker 3>My D is being chased and I want you to

0:14:08.040 --> 0:14:11.000
<v Speaker 3>hide it, grab it like a bonga. She took a

0:14:11.040 --> 0:14:14.559
<v Speaker 3>pill that made her horny. She blanks in the audi

0:14:14.720 --> 0:14:16.360
<v Speaker 3>not in the Honda E.

0:14:16.760 --> 0:14:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna start saying that grab it like a bonga.

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 2>See if that gets me in here? Smooth smooth, Oh yes,

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:26.760
<v Speaker 2>so clever.

0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Now to those of you who are saying, why didn't

0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:31.800
<v Speaker 1>you switch over to the Turning Point USA halftime show, Well,

0:14:32.160 --> 0:14:34.160
<v Speaker 1>a couple of reasons. One, I didn't order to find it,

0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and it would have taken me three seconds to figure

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:39.000
<v Speaker 1>it out, which is more than I was willing to take. Uh.

0:14:39.080 --> 0:14:40.840
<v Speaker 1>And I wanted to watch what you know, the vast

0:14:40.840 --> 0:14:42.840
<v Speaker 1>majority of America was watching one hundred and thirty five

0:14:42.880 --> 0:14:43.440
<v Speaker 1>million people.

0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:43.920
<v Speaker 5>Uh.

0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 1>But you know, I don't know what songs Kid Rock

0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:47.880
<v Speaker 1>saying yesterday. I did see that he came out in

0:14:47.880 --> 0:14:50.000
<v Speaker 1>a fur quote quote in gene Shorts, which I.

0:14:50.000 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 2>Really didn't perfect.

0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:55.560
<v Speaker 1>But you know his lyrics aren't exactly family friendly throughout

0:14:55.600 --> 0:14:58.120
<v Speaker 1>the years either. I mean, come on, I wasn't a

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>big Kid Rock fan when he was b and not

0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:04.360
<v Speaker 1>just a cultural gesture right right?

0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:06.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? So no, I didn't bother, but.

0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:10.240
<v Speaker 1>It is why does everything have to be? Are you

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.040
<v Speaker 1>a fort Trumper against drumpa cut in a halftime show?

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:14.040
<v Speaker 2>You can't just.

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:19.880
<v Speaker 1>Ascertain how you feel about it other than through the

0:15:19.960 --> 0:15:20.960
<v Speaker 1>lens of politics.

0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:25.240
<v Speaker 2>Which side am I on here right perfectly? Okay? If

0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:27.720
<v Speaker 2>on your left to think, you know, I don't speak English, I.

0:15:27.680 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 1>Didn't really dig the music or whatever, or on the

0:15:30.760 --> 0:15:34.240
<v Speaker 1>right to think, yeah I didn't. I'm not in a

0:15:34.320 --> 0:15:36.200
<v Speaker 1>bad bunny, But I didn't need to see kid Rock

0:15:36.280 --> 0:15:40.320
<v Speaker 1>screaming either, So I mean, it's okay, doesn't really mean

0:15:40.360 --> 0:15:43.320
<v Speaker 1>what you feel about the country, and you'll be happier

0:15:43.320 --> 0:15:45.920
<v Speaker 1>that way too, Take it from me. Just the never

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:48.720
<v Speaker 1>ending culture war. Oh, it's exhausting. I should have watched

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:52.480
<v Speaker 1>the Puppy Bull. Very clever, though all those little trees

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.600
<v Speaker 1>on the field were people. Did you notice at the

0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:58.040
<v Speaker 1>end of it when the little trees stood up and

0:15:58.120 --> 0:15:58.680
<v Speaker 1>ran off?

0:15:58.880 --> 0:16:00.840
<v Speaker 2>What a great idea for moving.

0:16:00.720 --> 0:16:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Props in and off of stage right, put humans in

0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 1>all of them instead of having five hundred people run

0:16:05.640 --> 0:16:07.040
<v Speaker 1>out on the field and have to carry them off.

0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:08.960
<v Speaker 1>They all stood up, and the plants stood up and

0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:10.239
<v Speaker 1>ran off themselves.

0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:13.320
<v Speaker 3>So you just stand there and in the middle of

0:16:13.360 --> 0:16:16.520
<v Speaker 3>your what is that sugar cane or something?

0:16:16.560 --> 0:16:18.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. I don't speak Spanish.

0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you just stand there twiddling your thumbs. Second, about

0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:24.840
<v Speaker 1>five minutes in I guess five more minutes to go,

0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:27.400
<v Speaker 1>and then you run off when they tell you run off.

0:16:28.640 --> 0:16:31.280
<v Speaker 1>And as Mark Alpern wrote this morning in his newsletter,

0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:33.760
<v Speaker 1>was I supposed to know that that was Lady Gaga

0:16:33.840 --> 0:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>and Ricky Martin because I didn't. I didn't either till

0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I heard it this morning. I had no idea that

0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:40.080
<v Speaker 1>was Lady Gaga, and I had no idea that that

0:16:40.120 --> 0:16:40.640
<v Speaker 1>one dude.

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Was Ricky Martin. So I guess that was a bruner.

0:16:42.720 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 2>I identified her by her tattoos.

0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:48.520
<v Speaker 1>Well, good for you, No, but I didn't know that.

0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 1>And I don't know how to fit into the story

0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:50.920
<v Speaker 1>because I don't know what the story was because I

0:16:50.920 --> 0:16:52.560
<v Speaker 1>don't speak Spanish.

0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:55.160
<v Speaker 2>So that's an interesting development.

0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:58.040
<v Speaker 1>And why is Green Day singing American idiot before the

0:16:58.080 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl?

0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:03.720
<v Speaker 2>Green Day? I don't know. But do you know the

0:17:03.720 --> 0:17:06.040
<v Speaker 2>words of that song? They're America haters.

0:17:06.640 --> 0:17:09.800
<v Speaker 1>That's not really an America hating song for the super Bowl,

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:11.080
<v Speaker 1>the biggest audience.

0:17:10.760 --> 0:17:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Of the year. That's not sometimes George Bush, what Armstrong

0:17:15.560 --> 0:17:16.080
<v Speaker 2>and Getty.

0:17:17.400 --> 0:17:19.240
<v Speaker 1>So I was trying to find the audio clip of

0:17:19.280 --> 0:17:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Lindsey Vaughn crashing, but I know that was a really

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:25.440
<v Speaker 1>big story. Yes, today as she attempted to ski down

0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:30.359
<v Speaker 1>that dang hill, having completely blown on her ACL a

0:17:30.400 --> 0:17:30.879
<v Speaker 1>week ago.

0:17:31.760 --> 0:17:35.280
<v Speaker 2>Man, oh man? Was that was that? Uh?

0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Was that bravery and guts? Or was that just really

0:17:38.240 --> 0:17:39.480
<v Speaker 1>really ill advised?

0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 3>She did two successful training runs, but when she was,

0:17:43.359 --> 0:17:47.399
<v Speaker 3>you know, hell bent for speed in the official competition,

0:17:47.560 --> 0:17:49.520
<v Speaker 3>she wiped out bad So a.

0:17:49.320 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 1>Week after blow up completely blowing on her acls, she

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:54.600
<v Speaker 1>skis in a couple of seconds into her run, she

0:17:54.720 --> 0:18:00.480
<v Speaker 1>crashes breaks a bone in her leg. Report say she

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 1>was screaming as she slid down the hill in pain.

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Then was helicoptered out of there, and they keep reporting

0:18:08.000 --> 0:18:10.720
<v Speaker 1>it as and she had surgery and things are looking good.

0:18:10.760 --> 0:18:11.560
<v Speaker 1>Well that's good to hear.

0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Good forward. Can you imagine how painful that'd be?

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:19.160
<v Speaker 1>Your your blown ACL had to hurt like hell because

0:18:19.160 --> 0:18:21.640
<v Speaker 1>your legs got all twisted every which direction. And then

0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:25.200
<v Speaker 1>the additional broken bone which caused her to scream as

0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:28.680
<v Speaker 1>she slid down the hill. I watched it live during

0:18:29.440 --> 0:18:32.399
<v Speaker 1>during the day actually, and the NBC actually hit the

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.679
<v Speaker 1>delay because they didn't want to show the crash. I

0:18:35.680 --> 0:18:37.840
<v Speaker 1>didn't haven't seen the crash, and they're not replaying it

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.080
<v Speaker 1>on NBC News. But some of the pictures I've seen

0:18:40.080 --> 0:18:43.040
<v Speaker 1>with her legs twist a different direction. It looks pretty gruesome.

0:18:44.119 --> 0:18:48.000
<v Speaker 1>Oh goodness, man, So here's a nice transition. This is

0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:52.040
<v Speaker 1>substantially more charming. I happened to play golf yesterday with

0:18:52.119 --> 0:18:57.000
<v Speaker 1>a friend who has a close family slash friend relationship

0:18:57.040 --> 0:19:00.600
<v Speaker 1>with a figure skating coach of great Renn has worked

0:19:00.600 --> 0:19:03.840
<v Speaker 1>with champions and stuff like that, and worked with the

0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 1>ice dancing team, the American ice dancing team that's done

0:19:08.119 --> 0:19:11.119
<v Speaker 1>so beautifully so far at the Olympics, and was talking

0:19:11.160 --> 0:19:11.960
<v Speaker 1>to the gal.

0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:16.320
<v Speaker 3>It's a husband wife team. Interestingly, it's kind of a

0:19:16.320 --> 0:19:20.080
<v Speaker 3>funny story. The guy and my friend's wife were dancing

0:19:20.240 --> 0:19:23.479
<v Speaker 3>at this bar they were at, and he was popping

0:19:23.520 --> 0:19:26.440
<v Speaker 3>down in drinks with a little ice skating gal who

0:19:26.960 --> 0:19:30.840
<v Speaker 3>was hanging with him anyway. But he was asking her

0:19:30.880 --> 0:19:33.600
<v Speaker 3>about her career because if you watch the ice age

0:19:33.720 --> 0:19:36.320
<v Speaker 3>dancing or the pairs figure skating there, they just throw

0:19:36.560 --> 0:19:38.439
<v Speaker 3>the woman in the air, she spins and he catches

0:19:38.480 --> 0:19:40.919
<v Speaker 3>her and blah blah blah, what does that look like

0:19:41.280 --> 0:19:44.280
<v Speaker 3>when you're not very good at it? When you're trying

0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.520
<v Speaker 3>to get good at it? And she was telling stories

0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:47.919
<v Speaker 3>about that.

0:19:48.000 --> 0:19:52.360
<v Speaker 1>She said, I spent my entire youth black and blue.

0:19:52.640 --> 0:19:54.800
<v Speaker 2>I'd have to imagine.

0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:58.520
<v Speaker 1>I saw a clip a quad God talking about like

0:19:58.600 --> 0:20:01.800
<v Speaker 1>the backflip stuff that he did in competition last night,

0:20:01.920 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and he said, you have to completely commit to it

0:20:04.359 --> 0:20:07.120
<v Speaker 1>every time, because if you even just a tiny bit

0:20:07.200 --> 0:20:09.440
<v Speaker 1>don't completely commit to it, you're gonna land on your

0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:10.600
<v Speaker 1>head and break your neck.

0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Wow, And I'm sure that's true. I've always wondered that

0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:16.680
<v Speaker 2>on a lot of that stuff. How do you work

0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:17.000
<v Speaker 2>up to it?

0:20:17.119 --> 0:20:20.679
<v Speaker 1>Like the big ski jump? What's the what's the I

0:20:20.720 --> 0:20:23.119
<v Speaker 1>can't do this so you can do it? The in

0:20:23.240 --> 0:20:23.920
<v Speaker 1>between part?

0:20:24.000 --> 0:20:24.760
<v Speaker 2>What is that?

0:20:25.240 --> 0:20:28.679
<v Speaker 3>I'm guessing they've got different sizes right skill levels. At

0:20:28.680 --> 0:20:31.560
<v Speaker 3>the few places around the globe where they would have

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:33.360
<v Speaker 3>that sort of thing, there must be or you're you're

0:20:33.400 --> 0:20:36.600
<v Speaker 3>attached to wires or something like that, because otherwise you'd

0:20:36.640 --> 0:20:40.600
<v Speaker 3>try it, break both your legs, recover for a year, miss.

0:20:40.600 --> 0:20:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Your concussion, then try it again that right eye, Yeah,

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:46.640
<v Speaker 1>then try it again.

0:20:46.680 --> 0:20:51.159
<v Speaker 2>It'd be very slow process. Can't even imagine.

0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:53.040
<v Speaker 1>I got to read this one text just because we've

0:20:53.040 --> 0:20:55.359
<v Speaker 1>been talking about a halftime show so much. We got

0:20:55.400 --> 0:20:57.360
<v Speaker 1>a lot of these, Hey guys, The Turning Point halftime

0:20:57.400 --> 0:21:00.440
<v Speaker 1>show was so nice. If he didn't know this Turning

0:21:00.480 --> 0:21:03.239
<v Speaker 1>Point USA, the group that Charlie Kirk started and then

0:21:03.280 --> 0:21:06.040
<v Speaker 1>he got assassinated and now his wife is running. They

0:21:06.040 --> 0:21:07.600
<v Speaker 1>put on a show and it had Kid Rock and

0:21:07.600 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of other people, a few country artists sang.

0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Kid Rock did one short number in his Crazy Outfit

0:21:13.040 --> 0:21:17.240
<v Speaker 1>beautiful ballad, very patriotic, very touching. You should have watched that.

0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:22.040
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I don't know. I'd rather not have any

0:21:22.119 --> 0:21:24.160
<v Speaker 1>politics of any kind. Of course, you know I wasn't

0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:26.480
<v Speaker 1>getting away from politics by staying at the super.

0:21:26.280 --> 0:21:28.439
<v Speaker 2>Bowl obviously, right. Yeah.

0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>I did think it was pretty funny that the two

0:21:30.080 --> 0:21:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Polar Bears got caught on the camera at the concert

0:21:33.920 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>hugging each other and kiss.

0:21:35.000 --> 0:21:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh that was pretty funny. Yeah, yeah, that was good.

0:21:39.800 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 3>So on a couple of completely different topics, I found

0:21:43.040 --> 0:21:45.919
<v Speaker 3>this back to back pretty interesting headlines in the Wall

0:21:45.960 --> 0:21:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Street Journal, America reclaims its dominance in space. First man

0:21:50.080 --> 0:21:53.720
<v Speaker 3>moon missions since nineteen seventy two will launched next month. China, meanwhile,

0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:58.480
<v Speaker 3>is struggling. We've got a really nice edge in dominating space,

0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:03.560
<v Speaker 3>which we'd sure as held better, because if China's dominating it,

0:22:03.560 --> 0:22:06.600
<v Speaker 3>it will be to the detriment of mankind.

0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:09.960
<v Speaker 2>Let's see, we want to say.

0:22:09.680 --> 0:22:13.240
<v Speaker 3>It sees the resource rich areas near the lunar South

0:22:13.400 --> 0:22:18.560
<v Speaker 3>Pole Bill Nelson, then administrator of NASA in twenty twenty three,

0:22:18.600 --> 0:22:21.520
<v Speaker 3>So the Chinese might assert sovereignty over the Moon itself.

0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:25.160
<v Speaker 3>Stopping them didn't seem a Biden administration priority, especially when

0:22:25.200 --> 0:22:28.480
<v Speaker 3>space capsule safety programs stranded to American astronauts at the

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:31.240
<v Speaker 3>International Space Station for more than nine months. Trump famously

0:22:31.320 --> 0:22:34.400
<v Speaker 3>came in with Elon munksk and got everybody back.

0:22:34.480 --> 0:22:37.480
<v Speaker 1>But China is really struggling. So this is a nice

0:22:37.520 --> 0:22:39.920
<v Speaker 1>area of dominance, and I hope you exploit it. Wouldn't

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:42.399
<v Speaker 1>that be a bold move if China just declares the

0:22:42.400 --> 0:22:44.760
<v Speaker 1>Moon is theirs, or if we just declare the moon

0:22:44.840 --> 0:22:45.640
<v Speaker 1>is ours?

0:22:45.920 --> 0:22:46.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Yeah.

0:22:46.960 --> 0:22:49.480
<v Speaker 3>And then this headline the Chinese factory that opened in

0:22:49.520 --> 0:22:52.440
<v Speaker 3>the US and clobbered its rivals. And it's about this

0:22:52.640 --> 0:22:56.000
<v Speaker 3>glass company that supplies like windshield glass and window glass

0:22:56.040 --> 0:23:01.400
<v Speaker 3>to the big automakers. And it started by a Chinese company,

0:23:01.600 --> 0:23:05.080
<v Speaker 3>it came to the US. When do they say it's

0:23:05.160 --> 0:23:08.680
<v Speaker 3>like fifteen years ago and was cited as just a

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:13.160
<v Speaker 3>great thing to revive the economy and the Chinese. Look,

0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:17.120
<v Speaker 3>the Chinese are investing in the US since they opened

0:23:17.480 --> 0:23:22.640
<v Speaker 3>allegedly with illegal immigrant labor from China and illegal government

0:23:22.680 --> 0:23:25.600
<v Speaker 3>subsidies from the communist Chinese. They put a bunch of

0:23:25.640 --> 0:23:30.520
<v Speaker 3>American companies out of business, putting tons and tons of

0:23:30.520 --> 0:23:36.919
<v Speaker 3>people out of work in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Indiana. Says

0:23:37.200 --> 0:23:39.879
<v Speaker 3>who is this being quoted? He's an industry expert. The

0:23:39.960 --> 0:23:42.159
<v Speaker 3>entry of Chinese firms in the US auto industry not

0:23:42.200 --> 0:23:44.879
<v Speaker 3>only threatens the safety and security of domestic supply chains,

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:48.800
<v Speaker 3>but jeopardize entire communities that rely on American manufacturing jobs.

0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:51.760
<v Speaker 3>So it's just it's yet another example. And this is,

0:23:51.960 --> 0:23:55.760
<v Speaker 3>you know, back to our previous discussion. We need national

0:23:55.880 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 3>unity because we are in a century long preme wrestling

0:24:00.760 --> 0:24:03.639
<v Speaker 3>match with China and they have complete unity.

0:24:04.359 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 2>And so what do we do with this?

0:24:06.720 --> 0:24:10.560
<v Speaker 3>China says, your principles are open society, excellent. We're gonna

0:24:10.560 --> 0:24:13.760
<v Speaker 3>spread our propaganda. We're going to give you TikTok. We're

0:24:13.760 --> 0:24:18.320
<v Speaker 3>going to invest in companies, then ruin your industries. Meanwhile,

0:24:18.440 --> 0:24:22.600
<v Speaker 3>their society is completely closed and inflamingly racist by the way,

0:24:22.960 --> 0:24:24.720
<v Speaker 3>and secretive in a police state.

0:24:25.320 --> 0:24:27.720
<v Speaker 2>How do we deal with that? We need unity to

0:24:27.800 --> 0:24:28.400
<v Speaker 2>deal with that.

0:24:30.000 --> 0:24:33.520
<v Speaker 1>Speaking of TikTok, I heard there are a couple of

0:24:33.600 --> 0:24:37.240
<v Speaker 1>your big TikTok influencers she made a lot of money

0:24:37.240 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 1>on TikTok trying to put together some sort of legal

0:24:40.800 --> 0:24:43.399
<v Speaker 1>complaint or something, saying the algorithm is not the same.

0:24:43.480 --> 0:24:49.000
<v Speaker 1>Their views have dropped off substantially since the new TikTok

0:24:49.080 --> 0:24:52.840
<v Speaker 1>hit and it being sold to them as the same

0:24:52.920 --> 0:24:53.800
<v Speaker 1>product is.

0:24:53.840 --> 0:24:55.960
<v Speaker 2>A violation of this or that or something. I don't

0:24:55.960 --> 0:24:56.159
<v Speaker 2>know what.

0:24:57.000 --> 0:25:00.840
<v Speaker 3>That's interesting because I've been reading conservatives saying, hey, Beijing

0:25:01.280 --> 0:25:04.800
<v Speaker 3>areas from the National Review, the algorithm remains under Beijing's

0:25:04.840 --> 0:25:08.520
<v Speaker 3>watchful eye, and byte Dance is the strongest ownership position

0:25:08.600 --> 0:25:09.920
<v Speaker 3>inside the new consortium.

0:25:10.040 --> 0:25:10.280
<v Speaker 2>Quote.

0:25:10.359 --> 0:25:13.200
<v Speaker 3>This isn't a divestment, it's a smoke screen. TikTok will

0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 3>remain under byte Dance's effective control.

0:25:15.640 --> 0:25:18.120
<v Speaker 2>Wow. What if it's the worst of two worlds.

0:25:18.240 --> 0:25:20.880
<v Speaker 1>They still have the same amount of spying on you,

0:25:21.040 --> 0:25:24.800
<v Speaker 1>but the algorithm for just feeding you stuff and making

0:25:24.880 --> 0:25:26.000
<v Speaker 1>money is not as good.

0:25:26.200 --> 0:25:26.840
<v Speaker 2>Could be both.

0:25:27.160 --> 0:25:29.720
<v Speaker 3>Well, that'll week in the spying, I would sure, yeah,

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:33.080
<v Speaker 3>we should have bootered them out completely. And for what

0:25:33.119 --> 0:25:36.480
<v Speaker 3>it's worth, this is a factor in what Trump will

0:25:36.520 --> 0:25:40.000
<v Speaker 3>be impeached for when the Democrats take the House. It's

0:25:40.040 --> 0:25:44.919
<v Speaker 3>the three way relationship between Trump's company and his sons,

0:25:45.200 --> 0:25:47.480
<v Speaker 3>the UAE, and China.

0:25:47.640 --> 0:25:50.119
<v Speaker 1>You should break that down for us maybe next segment,

0:25:50.320 --> 0:25:53.040
<v Speaker 1>like in full or impartial, just so it's on our

0:25:53.119 --> 0:25:57.040
<v Speaker 1>radar speaking of TikTok and influencers. Not to make everything

0:25:57.040 --> 0:25:58.600
<v Speaker 1>about the super Bowl, but it is how I spent

0:25:58.640 --> 0:25:59.640
<v Speaker 1>most of my day yesterday.

0:26:01.280 --> 0:26:02.480
<v Speaker 2>I was amazed at this.

0:26:02.560 --> 0:26:05.320
<v Speaker 1>And you wouldn't know unless you're hanging out with the teenager.

0:26:06.200 --> 0:26:11.720
<v Speaker 1>How many of the commercials that came on where there's

0:26:11.760 --> 0:26:15.919
<v Speaker 1>a person who I just think is like, you know,

0:26:16.000 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 1>a bit player in the commercial, they're nobody, They're just,

0:26:18.440 --> 0:26:22.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, every man, somebody standing at the counter of a.

0:26:22.160 --> 0:26:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Cell phone store. Oh my god, I can't believe that.

0:26:24.960 --> 0:26:28.639
<v Speaker 1>My son would say is a giant star in the

0:26:28.680 --> 0:26:32.439
<v Speaker 1>YouTube world or TikTok world that I didn't even like,

0:26:32.720 --> 0:26:36.639
<v Speaker 1>didn't even know was anybody. And that happened over and

0:26:36.680 --> 0:26:39.480
<v Speaker 1>over and over with various commercials, and I thought, Wow,

0:26:40.200 --> 0:26:43.119
<v Speaker 1>they're reaching people on multiple levels, so they'd have some

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:45.919
<v Speaker 1>star there that my son is probably like, that's just

0:26:45.960 --> 0:26:50.120
<v Speaker 1>some good looking guy announcer, not a giant movie star.

0:26:50.400 --> 0:26:53.280
<v Speaker 1>And then the other dude over there, some young black guy,

0:26:53.359 --> 0:26:55.359
<v Speaker 1>is a huge star.

0:26:55.240 --> 0:26:57.119
<v Speaker 2>Among people in my kids world, and I didn't even

0:26:57.160 --> 0:27:00.080
<v Speaker 2>know it was anybody. It reminds me of nineteen seventy.

0:27:00.280 --> 0:27:02.600
<v Speaker 2>I was watching the Super Bowl and my children said,

0:27:02.640 --> 0:27:02.960
<v Speaker 2>who's that?

0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:06.960
<v Speaker 3>I said, that's Lola Falana, the Great Lola Falana.

0:27:07.040 --> 0:27:09.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh do you not know the Great Lola Falana?

0:27:11.000 --> 0:27:13.359
<v Speaker 1>Even We were at Target a couple of weeks ago

0:27:14.040 --> 0:27:18.480
<v Speaker 1>and we were in the uh uh men's grooming uh

0:27:18.520 --> 0:27:22.239
<v Speaker 1>section because my teenage boys have started to decide they

0:27:22.280 --> 0:27:24.040
<v Speaker 1>really care how they look and smell and whatnot.

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:27.560
<v Speaker 2>But they're always a welcome development, isn't it.

0:27:27.880 --> 0:27:29.639
<v Speaker 1>There was an ad there and I thought it was

0:27:29.800 --> 0:27:33.960
<v Speaker 1>just you know, when you have regular people, you know,

0:27:34.040 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>holding your products on a sign for Kmart or JC

0:27:37.720 --> 0:27:40.560
<v Speaker 1>Penny or whatever, it is not a star anyway. Is

0:27:40.600 --> 0:27:44.960
<v Speaker 1>some group of like the biggest influencers on YouTube that myself,

0:27:45.000 --> 0:27:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, I can't believe so and so is

0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:51.199
<v Speaker 1>doing Target commercials. I wonder how often that happens, right,

0:27:51.400 --> 0:27:54.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's getting so niche for all these different things

0:27:56.080 --> 0:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>that I don't know. We're probably all exposed to it

0:27:58.280 --> 0:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>every single day, where you recognize the influencer.

0:28:02.880 --> 0:28:04.200
<v Speaker 2>And I don't, and vice versa.

0:28:04.680 --> 0:28:06.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my twenty five year old daughters into that sort

0:28:06.800 --> 0:28:09.400
<v Speaker 1>of thing and will send me stuff she really likes

0:28:09.520 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 1>occasionally and I'll check it out and the number.

0:28:12.080 --> 0:28:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Of views would be the envy of CBS videws. Absolutely.

0:28:16.359 --> 0:28:16.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:28:16.720 --> 0:28:18.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this one group I wish I could remember the name.

0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:19.600
<v Speaker 2>I wrote it down.

0:28:19.400 --> 0:28:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Of these guys who just they basically watch videos and

0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:24.439
<v Speaker 1>then make snarky comments about them.

0:28:24.480 --> 0:28:25.120
<v Speaker 2>That's what they do.

0:28:25.520 --> 0:28:28.000
<v Speaker 1>And they are huge, Like you just said, they get

0:28:28.119 --> 0:28:31.359
<v Speaker 1>so many more views than anything on cable could even help.

0:28:31.480 --> 0:28:33.879
<v Speaker 1>I mean, they're a bigger star than any cable news host.

0:28:34.240 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's not even worth mentioning. And then you

0:28:36.320 --> 0:28:39.040
<v Speaker 1>get to the big networks and they dominate that in

0:28:39.160 --> 0:28:43.280
<v Speaker 1>terms of eyeballs or recognition, and they're lost on me

0:28:43.400 --> 0:28:46.040
<v Speaker 1>com lately. That's a good thing if you can get it,

0:28:46.080 --> 0:28:47.640
<v Speaker 1>although it's kind of similar to what we do. You

0:28:47.680 --> 0:28:49.920
<v Speaker 1>just observe the world and make snarky comments.

0:28:50.320 --> 0:28:54.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that divide it reminds me a little bit of

0:28:54.800 --> 0:28:56.520
<v Speaker 3>what we've been talking about in reference to the Super

0:28:56.560 --> 0:28:58.400
<v Speaker 3>Bowl and the halftime showing Bad Bunny and the rest

0:28:58.440 --> 0:29:01.400
<v Speaker 3>of it. The Roger Goodell the world are looking at

0:29:01.600 --> 0:29:07.040
<v Speaker 3>that as the future, including the Spanish speaking world, and

0:29:07.160 --> 0:29:09.000
<v Speaker 3>you know, we've said plenty about that, and probably we'll

0:29:09.000 --> 0:29:11.960
<v Speaker 3>say some more. But yeah, they're realizing that's where the

0:29:11.960 --> 0:29:13.840
<v Speaker 3>eyes are, that's where the money is, that's where we're going.

0:29:16.120 --> 0:29:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't know that I agree with that, and I'm

0:29:18.240 --> 0:29:22.240
<v Speaker 1>in the advertising world myself, obviously, How could there be

0:29:22.280 --> 0:29:25.320
<v Speaker 1>a bigger market? Everybody wants to get into the US

0:29:25.320 --> 0:29:28.160
<v Speaker 1>market because it is such a great market. We were

0:29:28.200 --> 0:29:30.880
<v Speaker 1>the richest country on Earth. We spend money like crazy.

0:29:31.080 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Everybody wants American eyeballs, and we got the NFL thinking now,

0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:40.200
<v Speaker 1>we don't want that, we want some mills. Venezuelan's yeah,

0:29:40.280 --> 0:29:43.760
<v Speaker 1>for some reason. Right, interesting. Well, I guess we'll wait

0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:46.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty years and see who's right. Joe's going to explain

0:29:46.720 --> 0:29:50.040
<v Speaker 1>to us what Trump's going to get impeached about if

0:29:50.040 --> 0:29:52.000
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats take the House, and they almost certainly will,

0:29:52.320 --> 0:29:54.040
<v Speaker 1>among other things we got coming up on the show

0:29:54.080 --> 0:29:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Stay here.

0:29:58.920 --> 0:30:01.680
<v Speaker 2>I just know the years of watching her at sheievil Ski,

0:30:01.720 --> 0:30:08.560
<v Speaker 2>at her limit. The tone is set right here.

0:30:04.800 --> 0:30:13.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, that's Lindsey vonn crashing.

0:30:13.480 --> 0:30:16.200
<v Speaker 2>That was not good. That was not good. Michael played

0:30:16.240 --> 0:30:19.440
<v Speaker 2>forty four and I have an excuse for this. I

0:30:19.440 --> 0:30:22.040
<v Speaker 2>hope for the best for her. I hope that it's

0:30:22.600 --> 0:30:23.600
<v Speaker 2>that it's not too bad.

0:30:23.680 --> 0:30:26.120
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, I mean my heart aches for her.

0:30:26.160 --> 0:30:27.800
<v Speaker 2>It's it's such a brutal sport.

0:30:27.840 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes that's us skier. Breezy Johnson. Can I call myself

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:35.080
<v Speaker 3>Breezy Johnson or would that seem weird?

0:30:35.160 --> 0:30:37.760
<v Speaker 1>So many of these Olympic athletes have super cool names,

0:30:37.800 --> 0:30:39.920
<v Speaker 1>like the parents knew they were going to be something.

0:30:41.040 --> 0:30:46.160
<v Speaker 2>Breezy Johnson is the gold medal winner. It's a cool name. Hey.

0:30:46.280 --> 0:30:48.240
<v Speaker 2>By the way, real quick, I just came across this.

0:30:49.680 --> 0:30:56.040
<v Speaker 1>Uh. Ricky Martin's uh song during halftime was a warning

0:30:56.080 --> 0:30:57.560
<v Speaker 1>about modern day colonialism.

0:30:57.920 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 2>In case you weren't where super.

0:31:00.080 --> 0:31:02.360
<v Speaker 1>Got that from the New York Times critic. Maybe we'll

0:31:02.400 --> 0:31:04.480
<v Speaker 1>read more of that later, so you have the slightest

0:31:04.480 --> 0:31:05.320
<v Speaker 1>idea what happened.

0:31:06.720 --> 0:31:07.880
<v Speaker 2>So I'm looking at the clock.

0:31:08.760 --> 0:31:10.840
<v Speaker 3>We can scratch the surface of this, which is probably

0:31:10.920 --> 0:31:16.360
<v Speaker 3>enough for now. Andy McCarthy of the National Review and

0:31:16.400 --> 0:31:21.160
<v Speaker 3>the Wall Street Journal and other places is a rock solid,

0:31:21.280 --> 0:31:25.160
<v Speaker 3>very serious, fair minded conservative, former federal prosecutor writes about

0:31:25.160 --> 0:31:27.520
<v Speaker 3>the law and that sort of thing generally, and he's

0:31:27.840 --> 0:31:31.640
<v Speaker 3>you know, we're fans. He has unleashed a five part

0:31:32.000 --> 0:31:35.400
<v Speaker 3>series most I think three or four parts of it

0:31:35.480 --> 0:31:40.120
<v Speaker 3>so far in National Review, originally about the ties between

0:31:40.880 --> 0:31:45.160
<v Speaker 3>the Trump family and Steve Whitkoff, by the way, and

0:31:45.240 --> 0:31:50.360
<v Speaker 3>Jared Kushner and the uaes trillions of dollars in free

0:31:50.480 --> 0:31:55.520
<v Speaker 3>cash and the communist Chinese And here is the thumbnail

0:31:55.600 --> 0:31:58.440
<v Speaker 3>sketch of what Trump will be impeached for as soon

0:31:58.440 --> 0:31:59.960
<v Speaker 3>as the Democrats take that out.

0:32:00.160 --> 0:32:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Keeping in mind Andrew McCarthy, because we read a lot

0:32:02.160 --> 0:32:04.480
<v Speaker 1>of it over the years, has come to Trump's defense

0:32:04.520 --> 0:32:06.880
<v Speaker 1>and a whole bunch of bogus lawsuits and stuff like

0:32:06.920 --> 0:32:08.560
<v Speaker 1>that over the years when nobody else was.

0:32:09.080 --> 0:32:13.600
<v Speaker 3>He was absolutely the most persuasive and powerful caller out

0:32:13.720 --> 0:32:16.200
<v Speaker 3>of the law fare that was going after Trump while

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:20.160
<v Speaker 3>it was going after completely fair Anyway says it's a

0:32:20.160 --> 0:32:22.040
<v Speaker 3>long story, but let's cut to the chase. In autumn

0:32:22.080 --> 0:32:24.240
<v Speaker 3>of twenty four, when it became Cleari'd likely went back

0:32:24.240 --> 0:32:26.160
<v Speaker 3>to White House. In about six weeks, Donald Trump and

0:32:26.200 --> 0:32:29.280
<v Speaker 3>his friend Steve Whitcoff founded a crypto business called World

0:32:29.360 --> 0:32:34.360
<v Speaker 3>Liberty Financial WLF was and remains an ideal vehicle for

0:32:34.480 --> 0:32:38.160
<v Speaker 3>leveraging political power in search of financial game. Crypto's shrouded

0:32:38.240 --> 0:32:41.680
<v Speaker 3>mystery and intrigue. The public generally doesn't understand it. The

0:32:41.680 --> 0:32:44.320
<v Speaker 3>Federal Reserves has just two percent of Americans use crypto

0:32:44.360 --> 0:32:46.240
<v Speaker 3>to pay for anything in.

0:32:46.200 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Twenty twenty four.

0:32:48.040 --> 0:32:51.000
<v Speaker 1>The value that investors promote and customers purchase at VEIG

0:32:51.120 --> 0:32:54.200
<v Speaker 1>is vague. Hence, a crypto business, whether in token's currency

0:32:54.320 --> 0:32:57.520
<v Speaker 1>or other iterations, is an ideal way to disguise political

0:32:57.560 --> 0:33:01.120
<v Speaker 1>payoffs as financial transactions. Because they have sons who do

0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:05.240
<v Speaker 1>not hold government positions and could Austin ostensibly run the

0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:08.640
<v Speaker 1>crypto business. Trump at his Middle East endvoy Witkoff would

0:33:08.680 --> 0:33:11.760
<v Speaker 1>be poised to claim that WLF is a private enterprise

0:33:11.960 --> 0:33:15.360
<v Speaker 1>waldoff from Trump's political influence, even though that influence was

0:33:15.400 --> 0:33:19.959
<v Speaker 1>a magnet for foreign investment and consumer purchases. And it

0:33:20.000 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>has to do with the Chinese board and Canadian billionaire

0:33:23.040 --> 0:33:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Felon Chang pen Joao who ran Binance, the cryptocurrency exchange,

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:34.480
<v Speaker 1>who is desperately seeking a presidential pardon, and contributed valuable

0:33:34.520 --> 0:33:40.040
<v Speaker 1>technical expertise for building wlf's infrastructure. So did Jow's close associate,

0:33:40.160 --> 0:33:44.320
<v Speaker 1>Shaik Tanun bin Zayed al Nayan, a top intelligence operative

0:33:44.320 --> 0:33:47.520
<v Speaker 1>and the second highest ranking royal member of the United

0:33:47.560 --> 0:33:51.680
<v Speaker 1>Arab Emirates, a tiny rich Gulf monarchy. Just for chuckles,

0:33:51.720 --> 0:33:56.120
<v Speaker 1>their sovereign wealth fund that they invest is valued at

0:33:56.240 --> 0:34:01.640
<v Speaker 1>I think it's one point two trillion dollars, and it

0:34:01.760 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>was a three way. You scratch my back and we'll

0:34:05.640 --> 0:34:09.000
<v Speaker 1>all make billions of dollars, making Hunter Biden look like

0:34:09.000 --> 0:34:13.640
<v Speaker 1>the punky is. So if that is the impeachment, and

0:34:13.719 --> 0:34:18.160
<v Speaker 1>that'd be a hard impeachment to sell to the people

0:34:18.160 --> 0:34:21.239
<v Speaker 1>that don't already hate Trump. You could any impeachment work

0:34:21.239 --> 0:34:23.120
<v Speaker 1>for the people who really really hate Trump, but it's

0:34:23.120 --> 0:34:24.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be a hard one to sell to the other

0:34:24.640 --> 0:34:26.480
<v Speaker 1>crowd because this is gonna be very complicated.

0:34:27.239 --> 0:34:30.879
<v Speaker 3>It's a I wouldn't say it's very complicated, but it's

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:35.080
<v Speaker 3>complicated enough to be a challenge, especially given the fact

0:34:35.080 --> 0:34:37.040
<v Speaker 3>that people's eyes glaze over as soon as you start

0:34:37.040 --> 0:34:41.200
<v Speaker 3>talking about crypto and crypto exchanges. What's what's the difference

0:34:41.200 --> 0:34:43.439
<v Speaker 3>between a meme coin and a stable coin.

0:34:43.600 --> 0:34:46.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, for instance. Well, you gotta figure it out. Yeah,

0:34:46.719 --> 0:34:48.239
<v Speaker 2>I don't think I do. Yeah.

0:34:49.120 --> 0:34:52.960
<v Speaker 3>Uh So, anyway, House Republicans even opening in Peach. Oh,

0:34:52.960 --> 0:34:58.759
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry. They're talking about the Biden family. Andy's thumbnail

0:34:58.800 --> 0:35:02.440
<v Speaker 3>is everything that Bidens did. Add two zero's to it,

0:35:02.600 --> 0:35:05.319
<v Speaker 3>and you start to get an idea of what the

0:35:05.360 --> 0:35:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Trump family's doing.

0:35:06.239 --> 0:35:10.399
<v Speaker 1>Well, that'll sure be fun to follow if that ever happens. Okay,

0:35:10.400 --> 0:35:11.400
<v Speaker 1>we get a lot more on the way. If you

0:35:11.440 --> 0:35:13.640
<v Speaker 1>missed a second, we get the podcast Armstrong and Getty

0:35:13.680 --> 0:35:17.040
<v Speaker 1>on demand Armstrong and Getty
