Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Gatty and he Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 1: I was just looking at the text line, and I'm
Speaker 1: always amused slash amazed at the haters.
Speaker 2: If you hate the show so much, don't you have
Speaker 2: something else you would rather do with your life.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine every day just flipping on a radio
Speaker 1: show or a TV show or whatever then I just loathe,
Speaker 1: and then reaching out to them, telling them how awful
Speaker 1: I think they are. Just it is an odd way
Speaker 1: to spend your day or your life.
Speaker 3: I just tell everyone you are.
Speaker 1: Keep there's another one. I keep going to this restaurant.
Speaker 1: The service is horrible, I hate the food, It's overpriced.
Speaker 1: I send them email after email, and I go every day.
Speaker 4: I'm see about as hard as I Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I mean, certainly monitor left the media to see what
Speaker 4: the arguments are and what they're trying to promote. But
Speaker 4: but I don't fire off angry letters to Rachel Maddow
Speaker 4: saying you are insufferable liberal.
Speaker 1: She's like, yeah, Lorence trolling. I don't know which which
Speaker 1: I don't understand that need either. It is becoming more clear.
Speaker 1: I think there are a couple of articles today associated
Speaker 1: press that I was just looking at, where are unnamed
Speaker 1: strategist people on Kamala Harris's side who are perplexed by
Speaker 1: her campaign, who that that realized she's a horrible candidate,
Speaker 1: particularly around the issue of you are asked twice what
Speaker 1: you would do different than Joe Biden and said nothing really,
Speaker 1: and nobody could figure out that answer.
Speaker 2: Anyway. I've got some.
Speaker 1: Those unnamed sources quotes that are pretty entertaining coming up
Speaker 1: this hour.
Speaker 4: Oh I'm tempted to ask you questions, but we'll wait.
Speaker 4: We'll do that in a little bit. Hope you stay tuned.
Speaker 1: So what you're about to hear is something that happened
Speaker 1: at Trump's Scratton Pennsylvania rally. There are he introduces this videotape,
Speaker 1: and during the videotape, during the moments of just music
Speaker 1: or whatever, it's pictures of current military guys doing drag
Speaker 1: show stuff. So that's the visual that we're missing. But
Speaker 1: go ahead and roll, Michael.
Speaker 5: Our military is great. And then I go and woke.
Speaker 5: You could put them in a woke room and scream
Speaker 5: at him. For two and a half years, they'd walk
Speaker 5: out and say, let me add him. You know, these
Speaker 5: are not woke people, but had this little clip and
Speaker 5: I thought you'd find it very interesting. It's the military
Speaker 5: of the past, let's call it the Trump military, compared
Speaker 5: to the very woke military that we have now.
Speaker 2: I think you'll get a kick out of it. You
Speaker 2: will not let you will not die.
Speaker 3: You will learn by the number happy pride, Happy Pride Month,
Speaker 3: and actually, let's declare it a summer of pride.
Speaker 2: You will be a weapon.
Speaker 6: You will be a minister of bed, pray for all
Speaker 6: butter and kill that day.
Speaker 7: You're poop.
Speaker 2: You're the lowest bar of white water. You are not
Speaker 2: even killing.
Speaker 6: You are nothing but on organized brandtastic pieces of opinions,
Speaker 6: marking of pauper.
Speaker 7: Last man to.
Speaker 2: United States marine cook. And so who are these military
Speaker 2: people in drag? What was that whole thing? It's just the.
Speaker 4: Whole woke DEEI military, the whole transgender old Rachel Levine,
Speaker 4: that confused man who portrays himself as a woman, who's
Speaker 4: some rank or another I can't remember.
Speaker 2: It's just.
Speaker 1: It's one of those topics where you know, for all
Speaker 1: of my problems with Trump, and I have plenty of
Speaker 1: them showing the march of that stuff across our society.
Speaker 1: I mean, you gotta look to Trump. Kamala is gonna
Speaker 1: supercharge it. What do you know about that clip there,
Speaker 1: Katie Well.
Speaker 8: In the in the particular clip where you heard the music,
Speaker 8: it was a member of our military in his uniform,
Speaker 8: and then he does one of those transitions where he
Speaker 8: puts his hand over the camera and when his hand
Speaker 8: moves he's in full drag makeup doing basic.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Great, and it's so much better than not having that clearly,
Speaker 1: and everyone agrees so on that topic roughly, and we're
Speaker 1: leading up to one of the greatest spankings ever delivered
Speaker 1: to a major American corporation. A couple of stories caught
Speaker 1: my eye on the gender bending madness front. I didn't
Speaker 1: have you get the theme together, Michael, Sorry about that.
Speaker 1: It's but don't worry about it. You got it gender
Speaker 1: bending madness. Nearly fourteen thousand miners underwent sex change procedures
Speaker 1: in recent years, according to a new medical watchdog database.
Speaker 4: This is in the extremely serious and professional National Review
Speaker 4: picture that just about fourteen thousand miners undergoing these cruel, experimental,
Speaker 4: permanent druggings and mutilations because they're confused. Adolescents falling under
Speaker 4: the sway of activists.
Speaker 1: Well, and I think important to point out in most
Speaker 1: cases with the help of their parents, because most of
Speaker 1: the time I don't think you got the money or
Speaker 1: wherewithal to go get this done. So you're well, the
Speaker 1: parents have been terrified and swayed by the activists. Well, right,
Speaker 1: your child will commit suicide, but you do not do this.
Speaker 1: I guess my point is you're you're the grown up.
Speaker 1: You're the one that's got to step in here and
Speaker 1: stop this from happening as the parent, right, But as
Speaker 1: a society, I mean, especially if you're in a blue
Speaker 1: state state, you will find no support, zero percent.
Speaker 2: He'd be tough.
Speaker 1: I shouldn't actually stand up against the tide, and you
Speaker 1: will find one hundred percent support for going along with
Speaker 1: your poor troubled ada lesson than.
Speaker 2: The activist wishes.
Speaker 1: I shouldn't pretend it would be easy, because yeah, in
Speaker 1: certain places you would I was gonna say almost, but
Speaker 1: probably not almost. You would have to pull your kid
Speaker 1: out of school and move or in California, for instance,
Speaker 1: your child could be taken away from you, right, you'd
Speaker 1: be in serious danger of them coming after you as
Speaker 1: a bad parent.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't deny that parents have a role and perhaps
Speaker 1: could be better at it. But societally we have to
Speaker 1: grab hold of this thing or the parents won't have
Speaker 1: any support. So from January nineteen to December twenty three,
Speaker 1: fourteen thousand minor patients receive gender transition treatments, with fifty
Speaker 1: eight hundred undergoing sex change surgeries and eighty six hundred
Speaker 1: getting hormones and puberty blockers. According to Do No Harms
Speaker 1: data base, that is an organization of medical professionals.
Speaker 2: That are trying to end this madness.
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, on a very very similar note, US
Speaker 1: hospitals earn nearly one hundred and twenty million dollars in
Speaker 1: four years from sex change treatments on minors, about one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty million dollars all on children under the
Speaker 1: age of eighteen, and I believe that's from the same group. Well,
Speaker 1: if there's money to be made, it's going to be
Speaker 1: hard to get the medical professionals to slow this down.
Speaker 4: The following twelve hospitals in the US performed the highest
Speaker 4: number of sex change treatments on miners. And again this
Speaker 4: will soon when sanity is restored and the neo Marxists
Speaker 4: lack the momentum they got from the death of George Floyd,
Speaker 4: because it all fits together, all the radical critical theory
Speaker 4: crap all wrote in on the the you know, the
Speaker 4: the wave of I can't stand up against this because
Speaker 4: the cop kneeled on Georgia Floyd's neck until he was dead.
Speaker 4: Better shut up Children's Hospital Philadelphia, Kinetic Children's Connecticut, Children's
Speaker 4: Medical Center, Children's Minnesota, Seattle, Children's Children's Hospital, Los Angeles,
Speaker 4: all of them with children in it, and they're experimenting
Speaker 4: on little kids. Boston Children's uc SF, Benioff Children's Hospital
Speaker 4: in Oakland, and the list goes on. Doctor Stanley Goldfarb,
Speaker 4: the chairman for Dunau Harm, said the organization aims to
Speaker 4: quote expose the dangers of experimental pediatric gender medicine and
Speaker 4: bring the practice to an end.
Speaker 2: We certainly wish you well. A couple more notes.
Speaker 1: Very quickly, a high school soccer team in New Hampshire
Speaker 1: made headlines. They're refusing to play against the school that
Speaker 1: has a dude on the team, a transgender player it's
Speaker 1: a dude. The Hillsboro Deering High School girls varsity soccer
Speaker 1: team mounted to boycott refused to play against Kearsarge Regional
Speaker 1: High School, which has a dude on its team. The
Speaker 1: girl said, it's a matter of biology. They boycotted their game.
Speaker 1: This isn't about transgenderism. This is about biology for us
Speaker 1: and the increased physical risk when playing a full contact
Speaker 1: sport against the opposing sex. Good for you, girls, And
Speaker 1: where did that statement come from the girls that you
Speaker 1: just read?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was.
Speaker 1: That statement, specifically was from one of the mothers one
Speaker 1: of the players. Okay, because we've just had several instances
Speaker 1: of the teams that have been canceling with San Jose
Speaker 1: State's volleyball team that's got a guy on their girls team,
Speaker 1: they don't say out loud why they're canceling, They just forfeit.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I incorrectly a few days ago said that San
Speaker 4: Jose State had made a statement. It was actually this
Speaker 4: group Equality California, when four universities almost in a row
Speaker 4: said we're not playing San Jose State and women's volleyball
Speaker 4: because they got a dude on their team who spikes
Speaker 4: the ball at eighty miles per hour and by the way,
Speaker 4: it's a woman's sport and he's a dude.
Speaker 9: Well.
Speaker 4: Equality California released the following statement. School administrator's decision about
Speaker 4: a pressure from extremists only girls get to play in girls'
Speaker 4: sports is an extremist position.
Speaker 2: How interesting.
Speaker 4: Instead of allowing their student athletes to compete harms all
Speaker 4: students involved. They are teaching fear mongering and discrimination, instead
Speaker 4: of fostering the camaraderie and competition college athletics should be about. Now,
Speaker 4: I know people who are bubbled enough that believe the
Speaker 4: letting him play on the girls team is the mainstream
Speaker 4: position and the extreme position is the people trying to
Speaker 4: stop that. So let's be clear. This isn't actually about sports.
Speaker 4: It's part of a coordinated nationwide attack on the LGBTQ
Speaker 4: plus community that doesn't exist, led by extremist right wing politicians.
Speaker 4: Extremist right wing politicians like all of the girls in
Speaker 4: this brand new ad from Riley Gaines Organization.
Speaker 2: This Dear Nike, Dear Nike, dear Nike, Why won't you
Speaker 2: stand up for me?
Speaker 10: Why won't you stand up for me?
Speaker 3: Why do you claim to support women and girls?
Speaker 8: Yeah, when we need you most.
Speaker 2: You remain silent. Today, Males are claiming our identity, our sports,
Speaker 2: our spaces. Men and boys are stealing opportunities, medals, trophies,
Speaker 2: and our future. And it's not fair or just. In fact,
Speaker 2: it's often dangerous. Yet you refuse to use your platform
Speaker 2: to stand up. You say you're for social justice and progress,
Speaker 2: So why do you allow men's rights to come before arms?
Speaker 1: See?
Speaker 2: You, with a big platform comes an even bigger responsibility.
Speaker 2: You have a chance to do the right thing, not
Speaker 2: just do the easy thing. So we're asking you, Nike,
Speaker 2: as the biggest voice in all of sports, will you
Speaker 2: stand up for me?
Speaker 10: Will you stand up for me?
Speaker 2: Will you stand up for me? Will you stand up
Speaker 2: for me?
Speaker 1: Will you?
Speaker 2: Will you?
Speaker 1: Will you just do it?
Speaker 2: Oh? Good one? At the end there, that is really
Speaker 2: good one.
Speaker 4: I can hear some of you saying, well, don't you guys,
Speaker 4: aren't you in favor of corporations just shutting up and
Speaker 4: making their products and staying out of social issues. Yeah,
Speaker 4: the problem being Nike has been so out and proud.
Speaker 4: Pardon the expression about being progressive? Yeah, for promoting transgender rights.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we do say that. We do say that all
Speaker 1: the time. And I believe that. But what you're gonna
Speaker 1: draw the line now?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, well right exactly. It's like CBS News. Finally
Speaker 4: a journalist asks some difficult questions of a progressive saint,
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden they're like neutrality, objectivity, journalistic ethics.
Speaker 1: Ah please, I like that sound right there at the end,
Speaker 1: quick word from our friends at Simply Safe Home Security.

Speaker 1: We should play that ad going at Nike every single hour.
Speaker 2: If I would be delighted.
Speaker 1: If I had a billionaire sort of money, I would,
Speaker 1: I would buy an advertising campaign like they were launching
Speaker 1: a new Jordan shoe to make sure everybody saw that.
Speaker 4: My final note on this, as a guy who coached
Speaker 4: for years both girls and boys sports, the speed and
Speaker 4: violence of male sports is completely different.
Speaker 2: No dudes in women's sports period. Wiborn the way stay here.
Speaker 7: Bet swings and hits a high drive left center field
Speaker 7: and deep Merrill at the wall.
Speaker 2: It's done.
Speaker 7: Mookie bets at it again the first inning home run.
Speaker 7: He pumps his fist halfway between second and third. Oh
Speaker 7: high five for dina Ebol, his second home running as
Speaker 7: many days.
Speaker 2: It's one nothing Dodgers.
Speaker 1: So uh, Dodgers wins. That series is tied up two too.
Speaker 1: They are going to play the winner or they're going
Speaker 1: to play the Mets, because the Mets took out Philadelphia
Speaker 1: last night.
Speaker 2: So that's what's happening there.
Speaker 1: That sounded like the announcer started to say it's good,
Speaker 1: like it was a field goal and realized good is
Speaker 1: the wrong word.
Speaker 2: It's good. You got that wrong. Hey, Michael, do you
Speaker 2: mind if we start calling you mooky.
Speaker 3: I?
Speaker 2: Guess it's okay? All right, Mookie, it's up and it's good.
Speaker 2: It's baseball.
Speaker 1: Go got good on second, No a second, but don't
Speaker 1: call me MOOKI. But so the Mets won, and that's
Speaker 1: a very big deal for the East Coast and they
Speaker 1: didn't make the playoffs of the very late though the
Speaker 1: last day and blah blah blah. Good story if you
Speaker 1: like that sort of thing. Speaking of New York. Uh,
Speaker 1: they got this problem in New York where they got
Speaker 1: like crazy prostitution going on in a bunch of different places.
Speaker 1: I've been looking at the pictures in the New York Post.
Speaker 1: The Governor Kathy Hochel has has been urged to by
Speaker 1: by local officials there in Queens to send in state
Speaker 1: troopers to clean up what they call an urban crime
Speaker 1: zone on Roosevelt Avenue in Queens, where there are more
Speaker 1: brothels than bodega's, say city leaders. And I'm looking at
Speaker 1: this picture and of the street at various times a day.
Speaker 1: The only place I've ever seen anything like this is
Speaker 1: in Tijuana, where you got this many girls lined up
Speaker 1: broad daylight. Obvious what they're up to. It's not supposed
Speaker 1: to happen in the United States. I remember I was
Speaker 1: in Tijuana one time. I'd walked across the border from
Speaker 1: San Diego with a buddy of mine. We're just going drinking,
Speaker 1: and I remember and it was just kind of, you know,
Speaker 1: kind of a sleepy afternoon evening or whatever. And then
Speaker 1: like a certain time, like the sun went down right
Speaker 1: a mountain and the lights came on, and then all
Speaker 1: of a sudden it was shouldered to shoulder prostitutes down
Speaker 1: every street. I mean, it was like a parade had
Speaker 1: been organized. It was absolutely amazing. I just couldn't I
Speaker 1: couldn't wrap my head around it. It was stunning, and I thought,
Speaker 1: how are they gonna make any money? Anyway, there weren't
Speaker 1: that many tourists. It was just kind of like a
Speaker 1: Tuesday evening or something like that, and like five of
Speaker 1: us walking around to the bars and hundreds of prostitutes. Anyway,
Speaker 1: That's the only time I've ever seen anything like that
Speaker 1: other than these pictures I'm seeing out of Queens, New York, Chrizy.
Speaker 2: Listen to Armstrong and Getty. One more thing.
Speaker 4: The podcast from yesterday we talked about America has a
Speaker 4: disorder problem.
Speaker 2: And that's part of it.
Speaker 4: But yeah, those scales had to feel like, you know,
Speaker 4: a car salesman on a slow day at the lot
Speaker 4: right exactly, nobody's coming in.
Speaker 2: I just got to stand here.
Speaker 1: But the fact that in New York City, one of
Speaker 1: the great cities on planet Earth, in the year twenty
Speaker 1: twenty four, you got prostitutes lined up on the street
Speaker 1: like that, because just lawlessness has become so prevalent.
Speaker 2: It's quite amazing, right, what was.
Speaker 4: That headline Katie brought us from the Babylon b experts.
Speaker 4: It's difficult to tell whether blue cities have experienced a
Speaker 4: hurricane or just policy.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's very similar a hurricane
Speaker 1: hitting or just bad government policy. And you're going to
Speaker 1: call in the national guard because all the hookers. These
Speaker 1: are odd times. Got to check in on the election
Speaker 1: briefly when we come back. It's good news for.
Speaker 2: Trump, Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 10: What's happening now Kamala Harris's this is an experiment can
Speaker 10: you win a short campaign with an untested candidate? And
Speaker 10: what I'm telling you is happening in private polling is
Speaker 10: she's got a problem. Now, okay, it's not cheering for Trump,
Speaker 10: it's not predicting Trump will win. She's got a problem.
Speaker 10: You're welcome to put your head in the sand about it.
Speaker 10: If you want to go watch MSNBC Primetime and hear
Speaker 10: how great things are going for the Harris campaign, you're.
Speaker 2: Welcome to do that.
Speaker 10: But if you want to understand what's actually happening, we're
Speaker 10: here to tell you. I just saw some new private
Speaker 10: polling today that's very robust private polling. She's in a
Speaker 10: lot of trouble. She's in a lot of trouble.
Speaker 1: That's from Mark Alprin, one of his zoom calls that
Speaker 1: he does, and he talks to all the campaigns and
Speaker 1: all the pollsters public and private, and his assessment at
Speaker 1: four weeks out is she's in trouble. And a lot
Speaker 1: of the swing states, really all of the swing states
Speaker 1: butt Nevada, he points out. And as we read the
Speaker 1: other day from his piece, there are quite a number
Speaker 1: of Republican and Democrat strategists who believe Trump is absolutely
Speaker 1: gonna win. He doesn't know any Democratic strategists that think,
Speaker 1: or any strategies. I think that Harris is clearly going
Speaker 1: to win. So that's where it stands currently. Everything could
Speaker 1: move in a you know, a month is a long time.
Speaker 1: Who knows what could have happen.
Speaker 4: Yeah, One of our brilliant listeners sent along an email
Speaker 4: with some analysis explaining how the markets and business in
Speaker 4: general are really good predictors of who's gonna win, and
Speaker 4: the way the markets move indicates it's it's a better
Speaker 4: indicator than you know, pundits and prognosticators. And they also
Speaker 4: said that the movements were all indicating that Trump would win,
Speaker 4: but who knows.
Speaker 2: That would be a heck of a thing.
Speaker 1: And as we said earlier, this this country, half the
Speaker 1: country is going to lose its mind. We have never
Speaker 1: seen anything like what the reaction is going to be
Speaker 1: if Trump ends up winning.
Speaker 2: The grated the greatest.
Speaker 4: Wadded panty of all times, just torrential pantsweating especially.
Speaker 1: I mentioned the New York Times headline that the Republicans
Speaker 1: are set to retake the Senate. I mean, they basically
Speaker 1: just state that's going to happen. The polling is so
Speaker 1: strong on that. If Trump wins and then he has
Speaker 1: a Republican House and Senate, which it looks like will happen,
Speaker 1: Oh my god, half this country is gonna go nuts.
Speaker 1: It's going to be so fun to watch.
Speaker 2: It will be in a way. So I'm gonna unburden
Speaker 2: my soul. Do you mind? My soul is burdened. Nobody
Speaker 2: wants a burden soul. I can imagine what can be
Speaker 2: and be unburdened by what has been.
Speaker 1: Oh that's Hanny, That's what That's where I'm I do know.
Speaker 1: That's where I'm trying to get number one. My friend
Speaker 1: Rob took the pitte on me.
Speaker 4: Last night because I am wifeless this week, and we
Speaker 4: had some delicious Italian sausage and sauce and stuff like that,
Speaker 4: and then he breaks out pecan pie and ice cream.
Speaker 4: There you go, and I'm like, oh, dude, oh come on,
Speaker 4: you know me, I can't resist that that' so I
Speaker 4: ate it. I ate it like a hog. I ate
Speaker 4: it like a.
Speaker 2: Cloven hooved, curly tailed damn hog.
Speaker 1: I've been doing really well on my way too, right,
Speaker 1: But that's not what I really oh I talked to.
Speaker 1: That was the unburdening your soul was the fact that
Speaker 1: you ate stepan pie last night.
Speaker 2: Well, i'sa and ice cream. Oh, such good ice cream too.
Speaker 1: Anyway, how soon after you ate it, did you regret
Speaker 1: what you had done?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 1: During during wow? Regretting it? While before, during and after? Yeah,
Speaker 1: my son and I rearretless. My son and I went
Speaker 1: to a Mexican place last night and like a restaurant
Speaker 1: or was it a just where Mexicans live? Tijuana? We
Speaker 1: were in Tijuana. The story I told earlier was from
Speaker 1: last night, me and my son. No, we went to
Speaker 1: a Mexican restaurant. We were kind of in a hurry
Speaker 1: as math Houter was coming. We thought we could jam
Speaker 1: in anyway. We both got done eating and he said,
Speaker 1: I feel terrible. I wish we had meet that. I said,
Speaker 1: I feel terrible too, I wish we hadn't etn that.
Speaker 1: I said, let's try to learn a lesson from this.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I usually find a Mexican cuisine to be a fabulous Yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's you know, just not just just too much everything,
Speaker 1: too much everything. It's about what quantity. Quantity is a thing. Anyway,
Speaker 1: back to Joe on Burton's Soul, a Thursday favorite.
Speaker 4: So, I have a lot of worries about Trump character
Speaker 4: wise and judgment wise, and a few geopolitically. But at
Speaker 4: the same time, Kamala Harris's policies are so ruinous, so dangerous,
Speaker 4: and she's such an idiot it's it's difficult to know.
Speaker 4: I mean, like in terms of geopolitics, national security, it's
Speaker 4: impossible to know what the hell she has in mind.
Speaker 4: She hasn't given a single clue. But when it comes
Speaker 4: to free speech, pro the economy, pro business, lower regulation,
Speaker 4: not sacrificing our economy on the altar of green, this
Speaker 4: that and the other. Oh, I mean, I think Trump
Speaker 4: is well, who was it?
Speaker 2: Who said was it?
Speaker 4: Bill Barr said Trump is Russian Roulette, Kamala Harris's national suicide.
Speaker 2: I think that's true.
Speaker 4: The one thing that does worry me a little bit
Speaker 4: about Trump, though, is he is, I think, partly for
Speaker 4: ego reasons, utterly unable to do the hard thing now
Speaker 4: to protect the future. Fiscally speaking, I'd say now, granted
Speaker 4: on the campaign trail, some of the things he proposed,
Speaker 4: I mean the campaign, it's silly season. You claim, you
Speaker 4: promise all sorts of ridiculous crap that couldn't happen in
Speaker 4: a thousand years. Yea, even if you were sincere about
Speaker 4: of Congress would never let you do it, even if
Speaker 4: it was your own party.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I remember when I read Stephanopolis's book All Too
Speaker 1: Human about the Clinton campaign. It's going way back, but
Speaker 1: nothing has changed. Just he was talking in that book
Speaker 1: about that because he ran Clinton's campaign. If you don't
Speaker 1: know that, George Stephanopolis from ABC this week, he was
Speaker 1: talking about all the things that you promised that you
Speaker 1: know you aren't even gonna try to do, and then
Speaker 1: the things that you promise that you'll try, but you
Speaker 1: don't think you can do them, and then the things
Speaker 1: you promised that you actually that's why you're running for president.
Speaker 1: But there there's a list of things that you don't
Speaker 1: even intend to, like, have a meeting about.
Speaker 8: You're not.
Speaker 1: I mean, there's zero effort whatsoever that you're out there
Speaker 1: nickname for those things. I don't know, it's just a category.
Speaker 1: I think they all they just all acknowledge. They all
Speaker 1: probably know the things that they're talking about that Oh,
Speaker 1: nobody's even going to bring this up the next day.
Speaker 1: We're not even gonna have a meeting on it, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: not interesting. Beautiful, that is interesting.
Speaker 4: But in terms of being afraid of what this country
Speaker 4: would look like, it's funny. The left is always talking
Speaker 4: about how Trump is this, that and the other.
Speaker 2: New Hitler blah blah.
Speaker 4: Blah, threatening democracy, threatening democracy. You have the left trying
Speaker 4: to tear down the Supreme Court, trying to end the filibuster.
Speaker 4: Tim Walls was in call Unicorny the other day sucking
Speaker 4: up to Gavin Newsom saying, Hey, we need to end
Speaker 4: the electoral college. We need to go to a popular
Speaker 4: election of the president. We need to do this as
Speaker 4: soon as possible. That would bring civil war to this country.
Speaker 4: So though I am uncomfortable with Trump, it's to me
Speaker 4: he's clearly the right choice anyway. Having said that, though,
Speaker 4: the one thing that bothers me is that he has
Speaker 4: all sorts of policies that would would be wildly inflationary,
Speaker 4: partly because of rampant spending. He seems to have no
Speaker 4: hesitation to spend like a lunatic in lower taxes, and
Speaker 4: that's dangerous. And I came across this from Milton Friedman,
Speaker 4: who is always worth quoting.
Speaker 2: Michael. It's clip number fourteen.
Speaker 4: If you would, the great Milton Friedman on inflation and
Speaker 4: all sorts.
Speaker 3: Of stuff flaischen is the most destructive disease known to
Speaker 3: my modern societies. There is nothing which will destroy us
Speaker 3: society so fairly and so fully as.
Speaker 2: Letting inflation run right.
Speaker 3: Inflation doesn't arise because you got to consumers who are.
Speaker 2: Spends rift, They've always been spends scrift.
Speaker 3: It doesn't arise because you've got the businessmen who.
Speaker 2: Are greed, they've always been greeted.
Speaker 3: Inflation arises because we as citizens, I've been asking you,
Speaker 3: as politicians to perform an impossible test.
Speaker 2: We've been asking you to spend.
Speaker 3: Somebody else's money on us, but not to spend our
Speaker 3: money on anybody else. Everybody talks against inflation, but what
Speaker 3: he means is that he wants the prices of the
Speaker 3: things he sells to go up and the prices of
Speaker 3: the things he buys to go down. The real tax
Speaker 3: on the American people is not what you label taxes.
Speaker 2: It's total spending.
Speaker 3: If Congress spends fifty billion dollars more than it takes in,
Speaker 3: If government spends fifty billion dollar, who he suppos pays
Speaker 3: that fifty billion dollars. The Arab Cheeks aren't paying it.
Speaker 3: Santa Claus isn't paying it, The tooth Fairy isn't paying it.
Speaker 3: You and I, as taxpayers are paying it indirectly through
Speaker 3: hidden taxation.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: That's one of my favorite quotes from him, and something
Speaker 1: that man, they should teach in school. The real rate
Speaker 1: of taxation is the rate of spending because it has
Speaker 1: to get paid for, so so whatever way they come
Speaker 1: up with a way to get money from you, that
Speaker 1: that's the rate of taxation.
Speaker 4: But with interest, Yeah, which is the insidious part, and
Speaker 4: that sort of the need for the US to service
Speaker 4: debt at the level we're accumulating it will drive up
Speaker 4: interest rates for all of us, so it will be
Speaker 4: much more difficult to borrow money to buy houses, cars,
Speaker 4: et cetera, for businesses to borrow money, and inflation is
Speaker 4: a tax. They print money to give us a bucket
Speaker 4: a quarter with the services for a buck it.
Speaker 2: Devalues the money we have.
Speaker 1: That's the hidden tax, and then we got to pay
Speaker 1: it back with interest. It's it's brutally horrifically unwise. Nobody
Speaker 1: wants to hear this. I'm done right. So this is
Speaker 1: not the stuff that gets talked about during elections, certainly
Speaker 1: not the last month of any presidential election.
Speaker 2: At this point in our nation's history, this sort of
Speaker 2: crap does.
Speaker 1: Here is a professor at the University of Cana where
Speaker 1: I spent a year in grad school.
Speaker 2: Poorly.
Speaker 1: I don't know what class he's teaching here, but somebody
Speaker 1: got out their cell phone. He's doing this in the
Speaker 1: little lecture room in front of a bunch of students.
Speaker 2: I can't believe it, but here you go.
Speaker 9: That's what frustrates me. There are going to be some
Speaker 9: males in our society that will refuse to vote for
Speaker 9: a potential female president because they don't think females are
Speaker 9: smart enough.
Speaker 10: To be president.
Speaker 9: We can line all those guys up and shoot them,
Speaker 9: and they clearly don't understand the way the world works.
Speaker 9: Did I say that? It scratch that from the recording.
Speaker 9: I don't want the Dean's hearing that I said that.
Speaker 1: We missed the very first part of that, where he's
Speaker 1: in a conversation when somebody starts their cell phone, where
Speaker 1: he's saying, people who think that men are smarter than women?
Speaker 1: So why is he having that conversation anyway? Who thinks
Speaker 1: either way that either gender is as a whole smarter
Speaker 1: than the other.
Speaker 2: That's just a dumb premise to start with.
Speaker 1: And then he goes into there are people that won't
Speaker 1: vote for Kamala because they don't believe women are smart enough.
Speaker 1: Who thinks that how many people do you know? Thinks
Speaker 1: that what are you talking?
Speaker 2: Katie? Feel free to weigh in.
Speaker 4: But as a guy who loves and cherishes women in
Speaker 4: every part of life, the male who has to promise
Speaker 4: trait himself talking about women are so much smarter.
Speaker 2: Men are so dumb. Women are smarter.
Speaker 10: You.
Speaker 1: You are a pathetic You should turn in your genitals, sir,
Speaker 1: And I use that term loosely.
Speaker 2: That's pathetic. Two points.
Speaker 8: One, I hate nothing more than a male feminist there
Speaker 8: that that's awful. Second, this guy's name is Philip Lowcock.
Speaker 2: Oh no, it's not. It is, No, yes it is.
Speaker 2: How did that escape me?
Speaker 8: And he's a lecturer in the Department of Health, Sport
Speaker 8: and Exercise Science.
Speaker 4: You know, good ur Alish just could probably help you
Speaker 4: with your problem.
Speaker 1: They're mistress support gird. I mean, how low is it
Speaker 1: support garm that gets that thing up where you need
Speaker 1: it to be. You gotta change your name, don't. You
Speaker 1: don't want it down around your knees. You want to
Speaker 1: up here waste level. I mean, maybe many generations of
Speaker 1: Locock settled the West and made Kansas the fabulous states
Speaker 1: that it is today.
Speaker 2: You gotta change your name. I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm with all due respect to great grandfather Locock
Speaker 1: in the work he did in Prohibition and Grandpa Locock
Speaker 1: and it's how he, you know, opened the first bank
Speaker 1: of Salona or whatever.
Speaker 2: You gotta change your name.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, maybe I should have more sympathy. He
Speaker 1: grew up with that name, probably many endless jokes like
Speaker 1: we're doing now, and it drove him to being a
Speaker 1: male feminist where he has to overreact the other direction
Speaker 1: or something low t uh, he's an embarrassment to the
Speaker 1: locock name. Actually I think with with that sort of
Speaker 1: crad but just that whole thing, and you know they're
Speaker 1: making a big deal out of the he should be lined.
Speaker 2: Up and shot. Okay, this is an expression.
Speaker 4: Although I don't want to hear another word from Progressive
Speaker 4: America about hey, we got to target that district because
Speaker 4: I think it's.
Speaker 2: Oh, you're trying to incite violence.
Speaker 1: No, never again. But it's the it's the attitude that
Speaker 1: bothers me more than the stupid violent imagery. Just just
Speaker 1: that whole thing, just so tired, wears me out, makes
Speaker 1: me want to sit down when I hear people say.
Speaker 2: That it decreases your will to live? Doesn't it really does?
Speaker 2: It really? Does?
Speaker 1: Somebody say it's the old WTL. Somebody paid a lot
Speaker 1: of money to be in that class. We got more
Speaker 1: in the way.
Speaker 11: Dominoes is announced that will relaunch its emergency pizza program,
Speaker 11: although what kind of emergency requires a Domino's pizza?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 11: Hell, I'm superstone and I forgot what drywall tastes like.
Speaker 4: Whoa wow, Wow, why the shot at that low cost
Speaker 4: pizza purveyor we all love Dominoes.
Speaker 1: Man, The last time I had a Domino's I thought,
Speaker 1: did this used to be better?
Speaker 2: Or was my taste just so much less refined?
Speaker 4: They have ridden have written a roller coaster of quality,
Speaker 4: the roller coaster of Domino's quality.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: They They were a pretty damn good pizza for a while.
Speaker 4: Then they tried to go super cheap and it was disgusting,
Speaker 4: and then the new CEO came in and said, we're
Speaker 4: not doing that.
Speaker 1: Oh I remember they ran terrible. I remember when they
Speaker 1: ran those ads. I think they kicked it off during
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl where it's like, look, we know we're crappy.
Speaker 2: We're gonna fix it. Yeah, yeah, which is great. I
Speaker 2: don't know if they did. Yes, Katie, no that they
Speaker 2: fixed it. Don't don't knock the Dominoes. Oh, Okay, I
Speaker 2: haven't had in a while.
Speaker 1: Okay, crust, especially big crust. Guaranteed I will have one
Speaker 1: either today or tomorrow. Guaranteed. That's how I will get
Speaker 1: on that grill. I don't doubt it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, I just got a text from my niece who
Speaker 1: is interning for Disney in Orlando and everything's closed down,
Speaker 1: and they even that far in and she just sent
Speaker 1: me a little Video's quite the mess around there. But
Speaker 1: there's a lot of hurricane relief needed for a lot
Speaker 1: of different places, and FEMA's out of money.
Speaker 2: Probably heard that whole story.
Speaker 1: We decided to go like way more local on ways
Speaker 1: that you can help out, particularly in North Carolina in
Speaker 1: the Ashville area.
Speaker 4: Yeah, just go to Armstrong and getty dot com. We've
Speaker 4: got a big donate here. Things going straight to the
Speaker 4: United Way on the ground in that hardest hit area
Speaker 4: that's trying to get the aid of the folks up
Speaker 4: in the hills and the god the devastation Nashville is
Speaker 4: just nuts. It's our fellow Americans who are really suffering.
Speaker 4: So if you can kick in a few bucks, do it.
Speaker 4: Go to Armstrong and Getty dot com. You'll feel really
Speaker 4: good about it when you do it. So a couple
Speaker 4: of stories completely non political from the world of science,
Speaker 4: including this one. Gerontologists, people who study aging and medicine
Speaker 4: say humanity is really hitting the upper limit of life expectancy.
Speaker 4: Good advances in medical technology, genetic research, not to mention
Speaker 4: larger numbers of people making it to age one hundred
Speaker 4: are not translating into mark jumpson overall lifespand more people
Speaker 4: will get.
Speaker 2: To those old ages.
Speaker 1: But they really don't see a way of expanding life
Speaker 1: span seeing. Isn't there there's stuff in the Bible, isn't
Speaker 1: there that basically says we're supposed to live there like
Speaker 1: seventy or eighty. I remember I got that phrase in
Speaker 1: my head. I'll come up with that, But yeah, I
Speaker 1: think that's about how long we should be around.
Speaker 2: That seems about right, doesn't it.
Speaker 4: So fourscore and seven years ago you were born, So
Speaker 4: go ahead and die, would you?
Speaker 2: Is that your doction the Bible? That's right, sir? Thank you.
Speaker 2: I don't think. I think. I think about this a lot.
Speaker 1: I don't think even if they could come up with
Speaker 1: the medical way where you live longer, I don't think
Speaker 1: you could adapt to changing culture and realities.
Speaker 2: It would make you two nuts. I don't know about that.
Speaker 4: Financially, it would be very very difficult, particularly given lower
Speaker 4: birth rates. I don't even know how that would work,
Speaker 4: But anyway, it's not gonna happen. Researchers are making progress
Speaker 4: toward vaccines to train healthy people's immune systems. To eliminate
Speaker 4: signs of cancer before it develops. Vaccines are in early
Speaker 4: trials for people with inherited genetic mutations that put them
Speaker 4: at a greater risk for certain cancers. They're coming up
Speaker 4: with cancer vaccines.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I love this.
Speaker 1: So I like the idea that eighty ish is about
Speaker 1: as long as we can live. But let's try to
Speaker 1: get you know, practically one hundred percent of people to
Speaker 1: eighty ish and eliminate all the things that keep you
Speaker 1: from getting there for a certain percentage.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So anyway, they're making slow progress in cancer prevention treatment.
Speaker 2: Thank goodness. Oh we're almost out of time. That's too bad.
Speaker 4: I didn't get a chance to get to this incredibly
Speaker 4: cheery story. Healthcare premiums are soaring even as inflation eases.
Speaker 4: I don't care who you are, how rich you are, man,
Speaker 4: healthcare is brutal.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: You can have a lot of money and have it
Speaker 1: wiped out fast with a bad turn. Help wise, more
Speaker 1: on the way if you have miss an allurgy of
Speaker 1: the podcast Armstrong and Getty
