00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:20,000
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Kaddy Armstrong and

3
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: Jaggy and he arms get drug fueled orgy. Well, when

4
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 1: you put it that way, it doesn't sound very nice.

5
00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: I just heard that on the news as a description

6
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 1: of what Matt Gates was attending, drug fueled sex orgies.

7
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: I'm always opposed to, like, sober and morally upright orgies

8
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: seem hey, hey, hey, you put put that joint out.

9
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:52,480
Speaker 1: What do you think this is some sort of drug orgy?

10
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: The regular count doesn't sound good when you describe my

11
00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: gatherings as drug fueled sex orgies. It doesn't paint some

12
00:00:59,520 --> 00:01:06,520
Speaker 1: untworn live from the studio cee see Senior, A dimly

13
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: led room deep with them the bowels of the Armstrong

14
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: in Getty Communications Compound. We are a week from Thanksgiving, people,

15
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: and today we're under the tutelage of our general manager. Google.

16
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:22,120
Speaker 1: Google the search engine, Yes, indeed, well, oh oh, If

17
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 1: only it were just a search engine, that would be okay.

18
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: But it's like the world's most popular browser, and they

19
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: automatically go to their search engine from that browser. Then

20
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 1: they pay billions of dollars that you always go to

21
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: Google from everybody's browsers, and that's too much for the

22
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: Justice Apartment, and they say you gotta break it up.

23
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 1: Whether that will happen or not, who knows. Interesting do

24
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,520
Speaker 1: you think they're going to bring it and learn more

25
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 1: and bring it to you? Do you think that's correct

26
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 1: or not? Is that side to go it? Yeah? Okay, yeah,

27
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,480
Speaker 1: this is this is one of those I just it's

28
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: it's somewhat interesting, but I don't find it that compell

29
00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what though. I I hate Google because

30
00:01:59,320 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 1: of the way they steal information. And I managed to

31
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 1: stay away from Google for most of my life. You know,

32
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,280
Speaker 1: Google came on whatever it was thirty years ago and

33
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: uh twenty five years ago, and then I I didn't.

34
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: I never had a Gmail account. I never did a

35
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,600
Speaker 1: Google anything, never had any of that stuff my kids

36
00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: got in school, you got no choice.

37
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:20,119
Speaker 2: Everybody uses Google classroom.

38
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 1: You're forced into your whole family having different Google accounts

39
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 1: and passwords and all kind of You got a click.

40
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 1: I agree to all the stuff, which means they're stealing

41
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: everything you got. So from that standpoint, the schools are

42
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: run by the government. I'm forced to use Google by

43
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:42,280
Speaker 1: the government that bothers me. I don't think you could

44
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 1: not be. It'd be very, very difficult to have your

45
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,960
Speaker 1: kid in a public school and not be a Google person. Wow. Wow,

46
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: you'd have to be some sort of conscientious objective. Yeah,

47
00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:54,640
Speaker 1: it would be a It would really be a cost

48
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 1: yourself a great deal of time and effort. Yeah yeah, yeah.

49
00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,400
Speaker 1: So that's not cool, is it? The government needs to

50
00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: sue public schools. Government should sue itself and spend itself broke.

51
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,919
Speaker 1: Maybe U Matt Gates, when he gets done with his

52
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: drug fueled sex orgies as Attorney General can look at

53
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,120
Speaker 1: the whole Google thing and see if it's okay with

54
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: all that?

55
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:17,079
Speaker 2: Does the does the administration want?

56
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 1: I just and I don't want to talk about it anymore,

57
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: But flipping on all the newscasts leading with some new

58
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,640
Speaker 1: Matt Gates revelation today?

59
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 2: Does does Trump want that?

60
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,720
Speaker 1: Every day for the next three months, four months, however

61
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 1: long it takes, every day some new Matt Gates story.

62
00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 1: Even the Wall Street Journal and The New York Post,

63
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:41,680
Speaker 1: two very different kinds of Republicans, both their editorial boards

64
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: say drop the Matt Gates thing. Interesting I'd missed that.

65
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,440
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, well, I'm not shocked by it. Trump's thinking

66
00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: in strategies and and trolling are sometimes so different than

67
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 1: certainly the conventional approach, but the way I would approach it.

68
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,200
Speaker 1: Sometimes I have to think about it for a while,

69
00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 1: what the hell is he trying to pull off? And

70
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 1: sometimes it makes sense eventually, and sometimes it's just dumb,

71
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: bad strategy. Why don't I say that, Well, the Senate's

72
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: claiming they're going to do a full hearing, and if

73
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 1: they don't get the report from the House, they have

74
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 1: the ability to call the same witnesses if they want

75
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 1: to to get the information that way, So that'll be

76
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,159
Speaker 1: a fun That'll be a fun hearing. I'm sure that

77
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:26,520
Speaker 1: would be behind closed doors, I assume. Yeah, yeah, I

78
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: actually think Matt Gates is an amoral scumbag. But I'm

79
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 1: also at least intrigued by thinking about all of the

80
00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,080
Speaker 1: moral failings of so many high officials of the government

81
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: and how they're selectively called out, you know, depending on

82
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 1: the circumstance. On the other hand, that's just because the

83
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,719
Speaker 1: one thing is true doesn't mean the other isn't true.

84
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 2: I feel like, if you're calling my sores that I

85
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: attend to drug fueled sex s orgies. It's prejudicial and

86
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 2: drug fueled.

87
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: That is that a prejudicial term. It's not fueled by drugs.

88
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 1: It's fueled by lust. It's enhanced by drugs. Well, it's

89
00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,159
Speaker 1: a party we're having. What is it? What do you

90
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,479
Speaker 1: do at a party? You all get together and I

91
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,440
Speaker 1: have a good time. That's fueled by fun. That's what

92
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: it is. Well, yeah, exactly, we're here for the fun.

93
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 1: The drugs are there as well, but it's not drug

94
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: fueled per se. It's fun fueled, come your honor. I

95
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 1: prefer to call it fun fueled camaraderie with drugs, with

96
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 1: drugs and that proportification and prostitutes. And now we have

97
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: a bunch of canceled checks for many thousands of dollars

98
00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: that appear to be to these girls. So anyway, that's

99
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: part of the fun. Few, that's that's what fuels the fun,

100
00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: me paying these girls to you know, do what I want. Yeah,

101
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 1: the checks coming out yesterday didn't help.

102
00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:46,359
Speaker 2: No, No, I suppose not.

103
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 1: I think the response from a lot of big Trump

104
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 1: fans would be, well, Merrick Garland is perverted to Justice Department.

105
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: Beyond all recognitions. So a guy who gets with prostitutes

106
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,719
Speaker 1: now and again is small potatoes. My counter counter argument

107
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:03,599
Speaker 1: would be, all right, get rid of that, don't have

108
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: either of them. Let's continue asking for better than both

109
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: of them. Right, And then I realized, because I'm on Twitter,

110
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,160
Speaker 1: a lot a lot of you don't believe any of

111
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,600
Speaker 1: that stuff anyway. It's just deep state trying to keep

112
00:06:16,680 --> 00:06:19,200
Speaker 1: him from being an Interney general. So checks are fake,

113
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: the accusations are fake. All the Republicans who are claiming

114
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,240
Speaker 1: these things are part of the deep state. And that's

115
00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 1: where that is. Have you known any scumbags? Have you

116
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 1: lived a little Have you bumped around and the you know,

117
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 1: the alleys of life, walked on the wild side a

118
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 1: little bit. It's it's like a big gold colored cat

119
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: with a huge mane is walking across Africa and somebody says,

120
00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 1: that's not a lion. The deep state says it's a lion. No,

121
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,720
Speaker 1: it's a lion. There are actual lions. Even if the

122
00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 1: deep state says it's a lion. You've never known a smarmy,

123
00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: good looking kid whose dad was powerful, and so the

124
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,160
Speaker 1: kid lived a really uncool life. You've never known one

125
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:03,440
Speaker 1: of those.

126
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 2: I've known a lot of those.

127
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and again you can there look at this

128
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: fur at the end of the tail. Yet that's a

129
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: lion or if you prefer the well worn duck metaphor

130
00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 1: either way, and I know the Justice Apartment needs to

131
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: shake it up. But again both things can be true.

132
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: One thing I was considering a nominating for general manager

133
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,880
Speaker 1: was unsubscribing day. Were already there? Somebody told me a

134
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: couple of years ago. Black Friday for them is unsubscribed day.

135
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 1: You go into all your emails, man, the number of

136
00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 1: emails I'm getting now you wake up in the morning.

137
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: It's just like I didn't know you had my account,

138
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 1: but I guess you do, like some clothing store or

139
00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 1: whatever they hold back till now. And now you just

140
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: get up a thousand of those. Then you got to

141
00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,160
Speaker 1: unsubscribe on all of them. Of course, there's always the

142
00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,800
Speaker 1: danger of is this do you actually have my accountman?

143
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: Or on am I just clicking on a fishing thing?

144
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 1: And now I've really made my life difficult. You don't know,

145
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 1: But there's no other way to unsubscribe. I'm going I'm

146
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: big into block sender now. I haven't been doing it

147
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: long enough to really get a feel for if it's working. Yes,

148
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 1: an email, and so you don't unsubscribe, you block the sender, Uh,

149
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 1: those that I know to be legitimate. But I think

150
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 1: you know I'm not gonna buy another one of your things.

151
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: I will, I will unsubscribe. But like you know, I've

152
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 1: been getting all these stupid cooking made easy and fun

153
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,240
Speaker 1: recipes and stuff I have. I've never signed up for

154
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 1: anything like that, right, and so some bastard and I'd

155
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 1: like to know what store it is because I'll put

156
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,680
Speaker 1: a brick through their window. It won't do me any good,

157
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 1: but it'll it'll feel good.

158
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 2: A reasonable reaction anyway.

159
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 1: That's that's my only rad carse brickmates window treatment. Anyway,

160
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,080

Speaker 1: the place like that. Yes, it's just terrible. We gotta

163
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 1: we've got to figure out a way to get our

164
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,760
Speaker 1: arms around this without violating uh you know, commerce or

165
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:03,239
Speaker 1: something then something that I wouldn't like as a libertarian

166
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: leaning guy. But but just the I fill out your

167
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:10,920
Speaker 1: thing that you make me fill out to buy something

168
00:09:10,920 --> 00:09:14,680
Speaker 1: at Macy's shouldn't mean that I get emails and phone

169
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: calls and texts from, you know, completely unrelated organizations that

170
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,000
Speaker 1: you sold the information to for profit. That somehow that's

171
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,480
Speaker 1: got to come to an end. Well, yeah, except you

172
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 1: click the accept the terms, which included we will sell

173
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: your information anybody who's got a nickel.

174
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:31,440
Speaker 2: Right.

175
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: Well, that's what's got to be figured out, is the

176
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: whole terms thing. And I know people have taken various

177
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,520
Speaker 1: swipes at that that if it's whatever we talked with

178
00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: I think I did when you weren't here, talked with

179
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 1: Tim Sandfer about this, and his belief is, yeah, that's

180
00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,840
Speaker 1: perfectly okay, And if you wanted to do your due diligence,

181
00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 1: you should get a lawyer and print it all out

182
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: and read all those things.

183
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 2: And they have every right to do that, and there's

184
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 2: no stop in it.

185
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: But there's got to be some sort of it's completely unrealistic.

186
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: That too do this. To have my kid in fifth.

187
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 1: Grade, click in the I agree for Google classroom that

188
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 1: to have my kid in fifth grade, I should sit

189
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: down and read seventy five pages of legal documents that

190
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,680
Speaker 1: I'm not qualified to read. That's it's utterly untenable. Yeah,

191
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:20,080
Speaker 1: but I forget it top it sure existed for a

192
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 1: long time. On the other hand, because you know me,

193
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: I'm about solutions. You can buy a palette of bricks

194
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: for as little as one hundred and forty dollars. You

195
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 1: could throw that to a lot of windows. Palette of bricks. I'round,

196
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: my dad is about to a lot of windows. That's

197
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: a lot of evil doers who are gonna taste your disdain. Friends.

198
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: Let's start the show officially real quick. I'm Jack Armstrong.

199
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:41,680
Speaker 1: He's Joe Getty on this it is? How did it

200
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,559
Speaker 1: already get to be by God? One week before Thanksgiving

201
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 1: on Thursday, November twenty first, the year twenty twenty four.

202
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:49,960
Speaker 1: We're Armstrong, you're getting We approve of this program.

203
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 2: All right, here we go.

204
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 1: Let's begin the show officially. According to the FCC rules

205
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: and regulations.

206
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 3: At Mark went to the store where people can donate

207
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 3: their garbage, and then the store organizes the garbage and

208
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 3: then resells it to people who would do crafts. Right

209
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:03,400
Speaker 3: when I walked in, I saw this bucket full of

210
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,760
Speaker 3: bread tabs for twenty five cents per handful. You can

211
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 3: also buy handfuls of bottle caps. You can buy people's

212
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,520
Speaker 3: old used paint. You can buy bits of broken trophies.

213
00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 3: You can also buy people's award ribbons that they don't

214
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,239
Speaker 3: want anymore. They also have a bucket full of erasers

215
00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:18,800
Speaker 3: that gave me fourth grade desk drawer flashbacks.

216
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 1: And it's a guy reporting from a store in Portland,

217
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,160
Speaker 1: Oregon that sells garbage.

218
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: It's called scrap Wrap.

219
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 1: Yeah. I saw this on the news the other days

220
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: and I was trying to I thought that sounds kind

221
00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:32,319
Speaker 1: of cool. My son would love that thing as a

222
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,960
Speaker 1: guy who's really into various art stuff. But I don't

223
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:36,839
Speaker 1: know how they turn a profit. I was trying to

224
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 1: figure out how the with the with the mechanics of

225
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 1: it staying afloat would be at a quarter for a

226
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 1: handful of those bread tabs things, and you had somebody

227
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: go through like a bag of junk and pick out

228
00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,520
Speaker 1: all the bread ties and put them together and then

229
00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,120
Speaker 1: and I don't see how you turn profit on that.

230
00:11:55,200 --> 00:12:00,000
Speaker 1: And so that's it's a very Portland it is phenomenon

231
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: on It is that it reminds me back when Portland

232
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 1: was funky and not horrible. How there's fun fun funky,

233
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,440
Speaker 1: not good. God get me out of here, funky not

234
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,080
Speaker 1: I saw someone urinating in the street with my son

235
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: last time I was there. Funky Yes, how does mailbag

236
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,920
Speaker 1: look very good? Full of insight and wit?

237
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 2: Cool? That is on the way.

238
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 1: Here's our text line four one five two nine five KFTC.

239
00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 2: Now I woke up to the.

240
00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:37,440
Speaker 1: News that Russia had fired an ICBM into Western Ukraine,

241
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 1: which was be incredibly provocative and a new thing and

242
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 1: a flexing of hey, we can send icems around with

243
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: nuclear weapons. Their reporting now is that it was not

244
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: an ICBM, but that's not still nailed down, but that'd

245
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: be it'd be a pretty bold move from Putin. Yeah,

246
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: as a signal, I guess, but don't we know they

247
00:12:57,559 --> 00:13:00,560
Speaker 1: have missiles that can write. But he's just conting to

248
00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:03,920
Speaker 1: like be more belligerent than he needs to be for

249
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:07,680
Speaker 1: some reason. Yeah, okay, here's your freedom love and code

250
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,520
Speaker 1: of the day, sent along by Alert frequent guest Tim

251
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: Sanderfer the Goldwater Foundation, says, I just ran across this.

252
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:18,120
Speaker 1: The problem being of an ICBM is flying through the air,

253
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: you don't have much time to decide is it headed

254
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:25,720
Speaker 1: to Paris or is it headed to Western Ukraine? Rozzi, Well,

255
00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: it's an intercontinental ballistic missile seems odd to lobb it

256
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 1: from right over here to right over there.

257
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 2: Right, that's why, Yeah, don't want to just be throwing

258
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:33,760
Speaker 2: those things around.

259
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:38,839
Speaker 1: Provocative. This is from Samuel Adams seventeen seventy two. If

260
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,800
Speaker 1: I am to have a master, let me have a

261
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 1: severe one that I may always have the mortifying sense

262
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: of it. I shall then always be disposed to take

263
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,480
Speaker 1: the first fair opportunity of ridding myself of slavery. Oh

264
00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:52,800
Speaker 1: that's a good one. That's a good one, as opposed

265
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,600
Speaker 1: to the just slow seeps into your life, controls everything.

266
00:13:56,920 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: You don't even know who to be mad at, frog boilings. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

267
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:06,319
Speaker 1: It just slowly gets swallowed up by the suffocating bureaucracy

268
00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: and yep, yeah wow. Both inspiring and discouraging. Thank you,

269
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 1: Samuel Adams. Maybe I'll have a couple of sam Adams

270
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 1: and be inspired anew this evening mailbag, drop us a

271
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:26,840
Speaker 1: note mail bag and armstrong Yeddy dot com if you like. Uh, Julie,

272
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,280
Speaker 1: he's been listening since like day one. Thanks you. Thanks

273
00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:33,800
Speaker 1: Julie with a great article on the jazzy moon names

274
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: everybody's supposed to be talking about these days explaining it

275
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,840
Speaker 1: all and uh and the longest short of it is,

276
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,960
Speaker 1: it's it's virtue signaling, is she explains, it's to honor

277
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,800
Speaker 1: the native tribes who use the names for crop planning

278
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:53,240
Speaker 1: and harvesting cycles. Now that I know it's a virtue signal,

279
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,920
Speaker 1: can I'll continue to not use the descriptors?

280
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:58,640
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I didn't know that, all right.

281
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, and actually the article is somewhat interesting. But it's

282
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: the Native people that didn't have charts and whatever.

283
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:08,800
Speaker 2: Get in January. Get a calendar, native people.

284
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's January. You got the big old full moon.

285
00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: Unless they instead of saying, hey, there's that big full

286
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:17,680
Speaker 1: moon kind of like the one we had last year

287
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: when it was super called out, to call it a

288
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:22,520
Speaker 1: wolf moon because that's when the wolves come out and

289
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 1: they howl and stuff like that.

290
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:25,400
Speaker 2: It's just a jazzy nickname.

291
00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:27,960
Speaker 1: So they know what to call it instead of, yeah, look,

292
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: you remember last summer, there's a big moon. Look here's

293
00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 1: another big moon this summer. That's not a good name

294
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 1: for it, so they call it the beaver moon or

295
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: the jackal moon, or the one Eyed Man is king

296
00:15:40,160 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: in the Land of the Blind moon, or whatever.

297
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,440
Speaker 2: That Upper Blue Harvest moon my favorite.

298
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:49,240
Speaker 1: Exactly, Oh fantastic. Al Sharpton is misinformed, rights rich in

299
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,920
Speaker 1: beautiful green Oregan no way criticizing Trump's nominees for cabinet

300
00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,760
Speaker 1: positions and not being diverse enough. Really, Al Trump nominating

301
00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 1: one of America's favorite African Americans to the government efficiency drive.

302
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: Elon, come on, come on man.

303
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 1: Yeah. Man. It's a bit of an old joke, but

304
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,840
Speaker 1: I kind of like it, just because the whole the

305
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,400
Speaker 1: various names for people of dark skin in America has

306
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 1: evolved like three or four times in my lifetime. And

307
00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,760
Speaker 1: the one that you absolutely must say, or we will

308
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: ruin you becomes the one you absolutely must not say,

309
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,920
Speaker 1: or we will ruin you. And the new one that

310
00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 1: you must say or we will ruin you quickly becomes

311
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,480
Speaker 1: the one you cannot say, or we will ruin you.

312
00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: And there's a brand new one. An African American will

313
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 1: soon be on the way out. I have a feeling,

314
00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,280
Speaker 1: let's see, Mike says, gentlemen. I hope that you, too,

315
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 1: along with Alex Soros and Nancy Pelosi, are still correct

316
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: about putin bluffing is based on the ICBM story. That's

317
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:52,040
Speaker 1: not an argument. Alex Soros and Nancy Pelosi believe the

318
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 1: sun rises in the east, and I agree with him

319
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,880
Speaker 1: on that as well. Hillary Clinton is laughing because the

320
00:16:56,960 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: last minute chaos is de licious. For I don't care

321
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 1: what Hillary thinks. He's a bitter old hag who should

322
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 1: have hurled herself off the top of the Washington Monument

323
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:07,560
Speaker 1: when she lost to Trump. Apparently we are going to

324
00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,600
Speaker 1: defeat the Russian Federation at last. This will be even

325
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,480
Speaker 1: more brilliant than Biden's Afghanistan. No, that's not the goal

326
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: at all. It's to prevent the continued aggressive conquests in Europe.

327
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,080
Speaker 1: Can't have that. But thanks for the note. Anyway, We're

328
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:24,240
Speaker 1: gonna catch up on the news. Stay arm strong and Geddy.

329
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 1: It's the end of an era for The Simpsons.

330
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 4: Pamela Hayden, who voices the character in Milhouse among many others,

331
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,960
Speaker 4: is retiring from the show after thirty five years. This

332
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,440
Speaker 4: Sunday's episode will mark her final performance.

333
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:44,919
Speaker 2: The lady who does a voice for Millhouse's quick.

334
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:49,320
Speaker 1: Shinder bending Madness. She started when she was thirty five

335
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,480
Speaker 1: years old and probably thought, oh my god, I got

336
00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 1: a job as a voice actor and he's been doing

337
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: it ever since. She's now seventy. Wow, that's amazing. I

338
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: wonder if she I ended up rich out of that?

339
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: Is it barred?

340
00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 1: Is it?

341
00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 2: The great Millhouse will be voiced no more?

342
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: Or they'll find somebody who sounds like Millhouse, which, uh,

343
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 1: which reminds me my my son is the number one

344
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,960
Speaker 1: Simpsons expert on planet Earth. I'm guessing.

345
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: Uh. But so, we were watching an episode last night.

346
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: It was one of those where they they have a

347
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:24,840
Speaker 1: quick shot of the crowd, and the crowd is always

348
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:27,360
Speaker 1: everybody who lives in the Springfield, like it's every every

349
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 1: character that's ever been on the show.

350
00:18:28,840 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: And he paused, and he went through one by one.

351
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,720
Speaker 1: He knows they're actual names of every single character, which

352
00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 1: is really hilarious because they all have real names. They're

353
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 1: Jeff albertson Comic Book Guy. There's like Kidis Kleidus in

354
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,400
Speaker 1: his last name and his wife and his last name.

355
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:50,440
Speaker 1: For some reason, he just has them all memorized. Has

356
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: the last name other than the slack John Yokel. Right,

357
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 1: and there's a real name for Disco Stu and uh, everybody,

358
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: Oh my god, no more Millhouse. What a gig? You

359
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 1: good on the show like that and it hits and

360
00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 1: then how much does she suppose she works a week

361
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,520
Speaker 1: or a month going in and doing however many lines

362
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:13,880
Speaker 1: she's got, or maybe.

363
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 2: Probably the only character she's voice, some others, but that's

364
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 2: the big one.

365
00:19:18,200 --> 00:19:20,840
Speaker 1: But probably does it from home now anyway, See you

366
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,879
Speaker 1: do it in your home studio, zap them off and

367
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: go back to doing whatever you do, play pickleball or

368
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, drug field, sex or geez or whatever

369
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: it is. Wow, wow, good lifestyle. So mentioned the hole

370
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: woke up to the news that Russia had fired an

371
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:43,120
Speaker 1: ICBM into Ukraine, which is a very provocative thing, obviously

372
00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 1: on the world stage, having the fact the fact that

373
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,160
Speaker 1: they announced the other day that they lowered their threshold for.

374
00:19:49,359 --> 00:19:50,440
Speaker 2: Using nuclear weapons.

375
00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:54,879
Speaker 1: Then two days later you fire an ICBM, which for

376
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,960
Speaker 1: at least a couple of seconds, we and I'm assuming

377
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,640
Speaker 1: Great Britain and fre Rants in Germany and probably China

378
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,960
Speaker 1: and everybody else picked up on the radars and thought,

379
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 1: holy crap, Russias fired ICBM, wars it headed. I mean,

380
00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:10,920
Speaker 1: that's that's that's scary crap right there where you could

381
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:13,719
Speaker 1: end up with a mistake. But anyway, The latest reporting

382
00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: is maybe it wasn't ICBM. Ukraine claims Russia fired ic

383
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 1: ICBM and recent attack. Fox is saying, CNN is saying

384
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 1: Western leaders say it wasn't an ICBM. But that would

385
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:27,680
Speaker 1: be a very provocative move if it was different story. Funny,

386
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the big news sites and they've got

387
00:20:30,640 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 1: it buried if they're reporting it at all. Everybody thinks

388
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,919
Speaker 1: it's a big ideal that the International Criminal Court has

389
00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:40,959
Speaker 1: issued war crimes. The rest worns for Net and Yahou

390
00:20:41,000 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: and Right and Gallant, but it's a phony court. It's

391
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:47,119
Speaker 1: got no authority, yes, but better for your politics if

392
00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:51,080
Speaker 1: you're a mainstream media out fine. The other story is

393
00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 1: this has been going on for a couple of days.

394
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,119
Speaker 1: Two big Internet cables in the Baltic Sea were cut,

395
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 1: causing huge disruptions.

396
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 2: And a Chinese ship was seen nearby. So what's going

397
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:01,760
Speaker 2: on there?

398
00:21:02,080 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 1: Oh, more than nearby. They've got it. Radar tracked directly

399
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: over the one cable two minutes before the cable stopped working,

400
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 1: and then that second cable, same ship was right above

401
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:13,719
Speaker 1: it two minutes before it stopped working.

402
00:21:14,000 --> 00:21:17,239
Speaker 2: Well, g whiz, all right, Well that takes care of that.

403
00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 1: Then now, come on China, Ukraine, and this might be

404
00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: what caused Russia to fire this big rocket missile whatever

405
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 1: it was. Ukraine fired British long range missiles into Russia yesterday,

406
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: so after the attackers we gave them, Britain said yeah,

407
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: you can use ours also and fired some of those

408
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: into Russia. So that might be why Russia reacted the

409
00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,080
Speaker 1: way they did. I get it. It's kind of an

410
00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: everybody's in. You can't single out anybody is because we

411
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,920
Speaker 1: all agree. Of course, I don't know if France even

412
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 1: has missiles. Maybe they can heave a cheese at the Russians. Yeah,

413
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,160
Speaker 1: it feels like I was an ad hominem attack against

414
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 1: France for some reason. Out of nowhere, Joe brought us

415
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,480
Speaker 1: the story of the Banana Taped to the wall.

416
00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,440
Speaker 2: The price came in yesterday.

417
00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:06,919
Speaker 1: It sold for six point two million dollars, Good Lord,

418
00:22:07,280 --> 00:22:10,600
Speaker 1: six point two million dollars. The artwork called Comedian It's

419
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: a banana tape to a wall. Don't you feel like

420
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 1: you're being jerked around? If somebody puts a banana, tapes

421
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:18,679
Speaker 1: a banana to the wall and sells it to you

422
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,000
Speaker 1: for six point two million dollars and calls it comedian.

423
00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,439
Speaker 2: Don't you think you're the joke? Apparently not, And.

424
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: They then they say congratulations and close the door and think,

425
00:22:27,960 --> 00:22:31,200
Speaker 1: oh my god, is that person stupid? Well, I read

426
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 1: you the description by the art expert that it's a

427
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,560
Speaker 1: It symbolizes colonialism and the effects of hyper capitalization on something.

428
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: It's a banana taped to a wall. It's a statement.

429
00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:44,280
Speaker 1: The New York Times said it's arguably the most expensive

430
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:48,000
Speaker 1: fruit in the world. I would say arguably it is.

431
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,040
Speaker 1: I have no counter argument, right, I don't know what

432
00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:55,080
Speaker 1: the count argument would be.

433
00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:56,719
Speaker 5: Wow.

434
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,560
Speaker 1: I think all of us wish we could come up

435
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,480
Speaker 1: with something like that. So do you have to be

436
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,359
Speaker 1: a famous Do you have to become a famous artist

437
00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 1: first and then do something like that? Because you can't

438
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 1: start with that because anybody could do it, right, I

439
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: don't know. I've laid this chair on its side. This

440
00:23:13,359 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 1: chair laying on its side is the disruption of the

441
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,520
Speaker 1: global order. Wow. I would like a million dollars for this.

442
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 1: That's powerful, powerful, you know. I don't I can't get

443
00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: in the side. I can't get inside the heads of

444
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 1: somebody who takes this stuff seriously and can tell you

445
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,760
Speaker 1: with the straight face that a freaking banana taped to

446
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: wall symbolizes the effect of colonialism on Native cultures, and

447
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: how it is at once making a joke of art

448
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: while making a very serious statement about art. And what now,

449
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,359
Speaker 1: I gotta get back to work.

450
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,399
Speaker 2: So if you buy so, I can't I can't relate

451
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:48,920
Speaker 2: to those people.

452
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 1: So maybe yes, some young firebrand could do that, and

453
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: and the phony, boloney, pretentious rich jackasses the art world

454
00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,840
Speaker 1: would say, yes, this is a genius, a budding genius

455
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 1: who knows well, I've got a tangerine nailed to the

456
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:08,199
Speaker 1: floor and it's a got similar, similar, similar cachet. So

457
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: the person who buys that for six two point two

458
00:24:10,320 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 1: million dollars is that two because they think it's worth

459
00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,440
Speaker 1: that much and you'll be able to sell it someday,

460
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,400
Speaker 1: or is it they want to display it in their

461
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,840
Speaker 1: home and people will think, oh my god, you own

462
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 1: the I didn't realize you owned the original comedian. You

463
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:25,960
Speaker 1: know what? And this thought just occurred to me. First

464
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 1: of all, it's tangerine nailed to the floor is a

465
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:33,399
Speaker 1: statement on permanence and impermanence. Wow, that's very good, thank you.

466
00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 1: What was the other thing we were talking about, Oh, oh,

467
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: do what they want to do with it. Yeah. I

468
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,200
Speaker 1: have a theory, and I don't know that it's right,

469
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: but it just popped into my head. If you fly

470
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,760
Speaker 1: a lot, the airline is really good to you, and

471
00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: you get to go in the nice lounges and stuff

472
00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 1: like that. You're a frequent flyer. If you get if

473
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,920
Speaker 1: you're known as a guy who goes on like expensive

474
00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 1: golf vacations, you have all the really nice place is

475
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: reaching out to you.

476
00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,520
Speaker 2: Perfect, They treat.

477
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 1: You really well. Oh yeah, perfect example your high roller.

478
00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:08,679
Speaker 1: I have a feeling if you drop that sort of

479
00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: coin in the art world, you are an instant celebrity

480
00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:14,520
Speaker 1: yourself and you are sought after your mind and dined

481
00:25:14,600 --> 00:25:17,600
Speaker 1: and that. If you're super rich and you don't care

482
00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,280
Speaker 1: about the money, that it might be worth a six

483
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:23,480
Speaker 1: point two million dollars, right, Yeah, If I have eight

484
00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:26,320
Speaker 1: hundred million dollars in the bank, I can spend six

485
00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:27,920
Speaker 1: million dollars. Never think of it again.

486
00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:30,480
Speaker 2: Right, I'll bet that is quite the lifestyle.

487
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,080
Speaker 1: They probably fly it to all the big art shows

488
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 1: and put you up in a fancy place and the

489
00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:36,320
Speaker 1: limo comes picks you up and they sit you in

490
00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: the front row to see if you'll be stupid enough

491
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 1: to buy. You know, the tangerine nailed to the floor,

492
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: signaling permanence and impermanence.

493
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:47,920
Speaker 2: I mean, I get to say it without laughing.

494
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I mean because the tangerine, it will wither

495
00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,560
Speaker 1: away and be gone, and yet is nailed to the floor.

496
00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 1: It cannot be moved. It is permanently on the floor,

497
00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: and yet it is impermanent, just like just like life.

498
00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,960
Speaker 1: It's a statement about life. If you haven't seen this picture,

499
00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: it is exactly as described. There's nothing else to it.

500
00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 1: It is a banana like every banana you've ever seen,

501
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,280
Speaker 1: only this one's got a few more bruises, and there's

502
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:19,960
Speaker 1: duct tape holding it on the wall, the end, gray

503
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 1: duct tape. They didn't even like spring for the fancy

504
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 1: red kind or something the colored guy, which would be

505
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,280
Speaker 1: a nice contrast with the yellow of the banana and

506
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: soon to be the brown in the black of the banana.

507
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: But anyways, is there is there anything? Do they like

508
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: shellac the banana or does it just like turn into

509
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 1: that gross withered thing that attracts little flies. The phrase

510
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:44,160
Speaker 1: shellac in the banana is not something we need at all,

511
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 1: not during the holiday season. Wow it he's drug fueled

512
00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:52,160
Speaker 1: door Jesus with Matt case Oh my god, jacket all

513
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: pales in comparison to the Aztec Death Whistle. More on

514
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 1: that to come. Matt Gates would have been much better

515
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:00,959
Speaker 1: off shellac in the banana and going to that party

516
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: and maybe ruin his life and his chance to be

517
00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: Attorney General. Wow. Wow. And finally, I want to get

518
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:10,040
Speaker 1: to this a little bit later. This is actually you

519
00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 1: glossed over the as tech death Whistle. I've got to

520
00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:16,680
Speaker 1: jump in here. Imagine an object so terrifying that its

521
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: mere sound could it could make you insane? The as

522
00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: Tech death Whistle. Next hour, I to stay it was

523
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,320
Speaker 1: going to be a drink or something. Okay, so it's

524
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 1: an actual sound, Oh yeah it is. It is a band,

525
00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 1: a tool. It's my nineties esque as tech camera sounding band,

526
00:27:35,640 --> 00:27:38,919
Speaker 1: but updated for the twenty first century as tech death whistle.

527
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:43,879
Speaker 1: A sound, a tool that could actually make people insane.

528
00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: Wow cool, I thought, And we will play you the

529
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,440
Speaker 1: terrifying audio of it if you dare stay tuned, I thought,

530
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 1: as Tech Whistle Death Whistle was playing behind Jelly Roll

531
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: last night at the Country Music Awards, but that was

532
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: not them. And one more thing from the New Times,

533
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,320
Speaker 1: an opinion piece that I want to read later that

534
00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,879
Speaker 1: I thought was really really interesting and good for the

535
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 1: NYT to bring it to us because they're pre purveyors

536
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 1: of this sort of thing. But the headline being if

537
00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,400
Speaker 1: everything is a crisis, nothing is a crisis, and how

538
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: the world of public health deems so many things a

539
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: crisis or has gotten locked into this. If we don't

540
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,680
Speaker 1: say this is a crisis, it'll get no attention. Thing.

541
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 1: And they go through all the you know, obviously infectious

542
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:30,959
Speaker 1: diseases where they want to get your attention about monkey pocks,

543
00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:36,959
Speaker 1: bird flu, all these different sorts of things, loneliness, social media,

544
00:28:37,359 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 1: all these things are problems they but briefly, like for

545
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: a week, you have to elevate it to the biggest

546
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: crisis in America, loneliness or whatever to try to get

547
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,720
Speaker 1: any attention or funding or on TV or something. And

548
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: they're concerned that and the valid concern that they've called

549
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,320
Speaker 1: so many things the biggest crisis that everybody's tuning out.

550
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're getting nobody's attention.

551
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 1: Speaking of things making people insane, never mind the Aztec

552
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 1: death whistle. It's the age of hyperbole and being constantly

553
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: barraged with urgency. Yeah, you know, everything, everything's a crisis,

554
00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: everything's a threat, everything's an outrage all the time, which

555
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:26,000
Speaker 1: is interesting because I feel like, uh, you know, I

556
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,640
Speaker 1: was surprised that it wasn't the lead story in the

557
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 1: evening news the other night that Ukraine fired those long

558
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:34,520
Speaker 1: range missiles into Russia and Russia's nuclear whatever. That's a

559
00:29:34,840 --> 00:29:38,040
Speaker 1: real story. That's a pretty damned big story. But we

560
00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:39,880
Speaker 1: don't have time for those, I guess because we're into

561
00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,600
Speaker 1: the whole loneliness is an epidemic that is killing people

562
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 1: all across America sort of crisis. I don't know. You

563
00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:48,720
Speaker 1: got a thousand things competing for your attention or a

564
00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 1: thousand stories, right.

565
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:51,960
Speaker 2: We tend to be more.

566
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 1: Inward looking though, definitely, for whatever crisis is our attention

567
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 1: at the time. Definitely. We've got Katie's headlines on the

568
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 1: way and those will be good. Stay here. Before we

569
00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,320
Speaker 1: get to Katie's headlines, here's a headline from Mark Alpern's

570
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:14,400
Speaker 1: newsletter today, or just a sentence anyway about how amazing

571
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,760
Speaker 1: it is that Joe Biden is not taking reporters questions

572
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: during a time of high international tensions and also confusion

573
00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: for his party, his parties, and maybe the biggest turmoil

574
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: I've seen in my lifetime, and also the world. What

575
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 1: you got nothing to say to all these reporters, with

576
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,160
Speaker 1: all these international leaders around, you got nothing to say

577
00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 1: about why you allowed Ukraine to fire these missiles or

578
00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:48,200
Speaker 1: Russia's response or Israel or net Yahoo being arrested or

579
00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:50,920
Speaker 1: he hasn't been arrested in the Bubba, but any of

580
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:55,760
Speaker 1: that really, And as your various spokes twits are loudly

581
00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:58,600
Speaker 1: proclaiming that there's only one president at a time, and

582
00:30:58,680 --> 00:31:01,040
Speaker 1: President Biden is build the president.

583
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, prove it. Yeah, I'm doing a little president.

584
00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:10,240
Speaker 1: All right, Let's figure out who's reporting what it's lead story.

585
00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:12,760
Speaker 1: It's Katie Green, Katie, thank you guys.

586
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 6: Starting with CNN judge sentences Lake and Riley's murderer to

587
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,000
Speaker 6: life in prison.

588
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 1: Good man.

589
00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 2: That trial got a lot of attention. All your evening

590
00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 2: newscasts led with it last night.

591
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: And then NPR with a nice story today about a

592
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: memorial being built in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as a memorial to

593
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,800
Speaker 1: the people mowed down two years ago at Christmas time

594
00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: by a lunatic who was a black guy who hated

595
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 1: white people and killed them for racial animus. They didn't

596
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:44,520
Speaker 1: mention that NPR. It was just a guy who That's

597
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 1: funny how that cuts only one way in a desperate

598
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: effort to build a certain narrative. You people are so dishonest.

599
00:31:51,760 --> 00:31:57,080
Speaker 6: Nbc ICC issues arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister net

600
00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,200
Speaker 6: and Yahoo for war crimes in Gaza.

601
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:00,680
Speaker 2: Does this mean anything at all?

602
00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 1: No, not functionally No. No. I am going to found

603
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 1: the International Court of Justice. My Canadian friend Gordy and

604
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 1: I will be in charge. We will start sending out memos,

605
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 1: we will design a letterhead or have AI to it,

606
00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: and I'm going to start sending out subpoenas which will

607
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: have virtually roughly the same weight as this lead story

608
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:23,400
Speaker 1: in all sorts of news.

609
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 6: Outlets from Axios, Ukraine's lame duck Danger, Biden and Putin

610
00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:31,720
Speaker 6: escalate before Trump arrives.

611
00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,240
Speaker 1: That's a good way to describe it. Well, he might

612
00:32:37,320 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: actually have the be the force of nature because he's

613
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 1: continually talking about we're gonna wrap this thing up, We're

614
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,800
Speaker 1: gonna end it, and both sides realize, okay, this thing's

615
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,080
Speaker 1: probably gonna wrap up soon instead of trying to get,

616
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,479
