1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

3
00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 2: Armstrong and and now he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:27,720
Speaker 3: It's really because Republicans just they're very thin skinned, and

5
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:32,000
Speaker 3: they're very sensitive, and their feelings are very easily hurt,

6
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,520
Speaker 3: and so they have to vote on central resolutions.

7
00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,040
Speaker 4: Representative al Green be censured with public reading of this

8
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 4: resolution by the speaker, or.

9
00:00:55,640 --> 00:00:58,760
Speaker 2: Al right, all rights to come to order. He let

10
00:00:58,800 --> 00:00:59,840
Speaker 2: it come to order? What's up?

11
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 5: I'm ling.

12
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 6: In the background, they're singing, we shall overcome in response

13
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 6: to the vanishing of the lunatic cane shaken ancient al Green?

14
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 6: What you can't You can't bring out the bazooka of

15
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 6: we shall overcome for a censer vote. Well, especially because

16
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 6: well center vote doesn't mean anything. Now Democrats will tell

17
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 6: you Al Green's a freaking nut.

18
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 2: We can't wait till he dies here quick, good lord.

19
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 2: Politics is dumb. It's dumber than I even thought.

20
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, just when you think you now dumb it is,

21
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 5: it'll out dumb you.

22
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 6: Oh my god, Please say we shall overcome for an

23
00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 6: important issue, not the censure of a House member nobody's

24
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,639
Speaker 6: heard of, well except those who recognize him as perhaps

25
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,000
Speaker 6: the greatest lunatic in the house. And then you had

26
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 6: cute little Disney Princess eyed AOC explaining that all this

27
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 6: is actually a sign of how that off Republicans are,

28
00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 6: which is quite the Take a couple of my favorite

29
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 6: female thinkers, Katie Grimes first, the California Globe Democrats on display.

30
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,519
Speaker 6: There's no joy in leftism, I think, she lays out

31
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 6: some and we're this is far more than just an

32
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 6: autopsy of Tuesday night speech and the reaction. It's it's

33
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 6: a snapshot of where we are politically in this country

34
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 6: that I found really interesting. But anyway, Katie, real quick now,

35
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 6: please coming up.

36
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 5: So parents and kids are turning to like AI chatbots

37
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 5: for advice or companionship.

38
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 2: Danger. Danger.

39
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,800
Speaker 5: I got a horrifying example from real life. A friend

40
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 5: told me about the other night of her daughter trying

41
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:41,440
Speaker 5: to get advice from a chatbot on how to please

42
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 5: a dude. Oh we're talking about a twelve year old.

43
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:50,320
Speaker 2: Oh stay tuned, boy. Okay.

44
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 6: Democrats have been digging themselves a grave so deep and

45
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:55,960
Speaker 6: vast they're gone lost a drift they can't dig out

46
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 6: of it. For any doubters, the Party of abhorrent, petulant

47
00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,440
Speaker 6: toddlers was on full dies last evening at Donald Trump's

48
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 6: congressional address, Rights Katie and then the list that I

49
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 6: think is really it's worth going through. Democrats would not

50
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 6: stand for thirteen year old DJ Daniel, a brain cancer survivor,

51
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,560
Speaker 6: as he received honorary Secret Service credentials. They wouldn't stand

52
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 6: for murder victim Lacoln Riley's Riley's mother and sister when

53
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 6: President Trump honored them in Lake and Riley.

54
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,480
Speaker 2: I that one. It was unbelievable to me.

55
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 6: I thought, wow, even if you were given instructions to

56
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,359
Speaker 6: sit to show how much you resist Trump God, when

57
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 6: they had Lacln Riley's parents raped and murdered parents, stand.

58
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 2: Up, I thought you'd just stood up.

59
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 6: They wouldn't stand when President Trump and Trump announced the

60
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 6: US captured the terrorists who murdered thirteen Americans during the

61
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 6: botched Afghanistan pull out.

62
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: How do you not?

63
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 6: I mean again, what where's the partisan I don't even

64
00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 6: understand what you're doing. Democrats did not stand for Mark Fogel,

65
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 6: wrongfully detained in a Russian prison for more than three years,

66
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 6: and his ninety five year old mother. Democrats did not

67
00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 6: stand for Stephanie Dillar, widow of slain and YPD officer

68
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 6: Jonathan Diller, who President Trump honor. Democrats did not stand

69
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 6: for former high school volleyball player Peyton McNabb, who was

70
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 6: left with brain damage and paralysis on the right side

71
00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 6: of her face by a trans volleyball player. Democrats did

72
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 6: not stand for the mother of murder victim Jocelyn Nungray.

73
00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 6: Did not go unnoticed, missus Nungray said afterwards. Democrats acted cowardly.

74
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 6: Democrats did not stand when Trump announced that high school

75
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:29,839
Speaker 6: senior Jason Hartley is six letter varsity athlete with a

76
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 6: high GPA and his father was killed in action or

77
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 6: I can't remember the story precisely, but we'll get to that.

78
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,960
Speaker 6: That he was accepted to the US military at West Point.

79
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,360
Speaker 6: He was then given a high five by thirteen year

80
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 6: old DJ Daniels. Democrats did not stand or clap. Most

81
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:48,479
Speaker 6: people were wiping away tears. Democrats sat still, looking angry

82
00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,240
Speaker 6: and morose with their stupid little paddle signs, which made

83
00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 6: for some really good memes, including America Last, I voted

84
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 6: against women.

85
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 2: I love war.

86
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,600
Speaker 6: I steal from taxpayers illegals first, and I don't know.

87
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:01,360
Speaker 2: What a woman is.

88
00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:08,080
Speaker 6: Some fine memory in a finally compiled list, and Katie

89
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,440
Speaker 6: goes on in their usual eloquent way. But speaking of eloquence,

90
00:05:10,480 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 6: the fabulous, fabulous Peggy Noonan explaining what I was trying

91
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 6: to explain Wednesday morning, just better about what why I

92
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 6: was so struck by the speech, Not the words of it,

93
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:27,760
Speaker 6: but the tone and the contrast between the Republicans and

94
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,239
Speaker 6: the Democrats, and the way the Democrats behaved and Peggy rights,

95
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 6: Democrats look like fools Tuesday night. We don't need to

96
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 6: dwell on how they sat, grim faced, seething, or walked

97
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:40,839
Speaker 6: out while the President spoke. One stood, yelled, Brandish's cane

98
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 6: was removed by the sergeant in arms. Others held up

99
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 6: little paddles bearing little insults, some more special color coded outfits.

100
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 6: Almost all refused to show normal warmth or engagement. From

101
00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,200
Speaker 6: my notes, as the camera turned and dwelled on the

102
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 6: furious faces quote, they.

103
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:57,599
Speaker 2: Look like the green room in Hell. All halt.

104
00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 6: Donald Trump romped three thoughts. One, these aren't serious people.

105
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,760
Speaker 6: Two their job was to show they're an alternative to

106
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 6: mister Trump. And instead they showed why he won third.

107
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 6: And most important, they will continue to lose for a

108
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 6: long time. I hadn't known that until Tuesday.

109
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 2: Wow.

110
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,520
Speaker 6: And then she goes into a bit of history which

111
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,839
Speaker 6: I will encapsulate very quickly for time's sake. But she

112
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 6: goes through various losses by various parties from nineteen eighty

113
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:33,039
Speaker 6: one to nineteen fifty five, nineteen eighty four, nineteen eighty eight,

114
00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 6: when the party that lost badly would readjust reassess and

115
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 6: quickly understand the reality on the ground.

116
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 2: That's been my observation over the many years.

117
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,279
Speaker 5: Just when you think one of the parties is like

118
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 5: never going to make a comeback, they end up, you know,

119
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 5: sweeping very soon.

120
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 6: And she cites in particular Reagan, Reagan, HW Busch Bush

121
00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 6: and then hw Bush barely losing because of a commun

122
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,120
Speaker 6: combination of Ross Perrot and saying, read my lips to

123
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 6: no new taxes than raising taxes.

124
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 2: So it easily could have been four in a row. Anyway.

125
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 2: We are in death wish too. In this space.

126
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 6: We believe two strong and healthy parties vying for popular

127
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 6: support is good for the country, she says. And we

128
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 6: offer advice for the democrats, I will start with something

129
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 6: they won't believe. In politics, there is bringing the love

130
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,200
Speaker 6: and bringing the hate. When the thirteen year old boy

131
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,520
Speaker 6: who had brain cancer and it always wanted to be

132
00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 6: a cop is appointed as an honorary Secret Service agent

133
00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 6: laminated id in all, and the child, surprised by the gesture,

134
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 6: hugs the normally taciturn head of the Secret Service. The

135
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 6: only thing to do, because you are a human, is

136
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:40,560
Speaker 6: cheer that child.

137
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 2: Wow.

138
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,920
Speaker 6: And when the President honors a young man who's late father,

139
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 6: a veteran and policeman, had inspired his wish to serve

140
00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 6: and dreams of attending West Point, and the President says

141
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,520
Speaker 6: he has some sway in the admissions office, and young man,

142
00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 6: you are going to West Point. I'm tearing up myself.

143
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 6: I not only got choked up when it happened. I'm

144
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,360
Speaker 6: choked up as I write. The boy with cancer high

145
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 6: fives the young man. And the only response to such

146
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,559
Speaker 6: sweetness is tears in your eyes. The moment is love.

147
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 6: It was showing love for regular Americans. To cheer them

148
00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:13,720
Speaker 6: is to cheer us. It shows admiration for an affiliation

149
00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 6: with normal people who try to get through and endure

150
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 6: and hold on to good hopes. The Democrats brought the hate.

151
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 6: They sat stoneface, joyless and loveless. They didn't show love

152
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 6: for Americans anymore. They look down on them, feel distance

153
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,040
Speaker 6: from them, instruct them, remind them to feel bad when

154
00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 6: they're surrounded by injustice. Well, because they're unjust. Trump says, no, man,

155
00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:38,520
Speaker 6: I love you. Which is better? Which is kinder, more generous?

156
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 6: Which inspires? Which wins? And Peggy Noonan is not a

157
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:48,720
Speaker 6: Trump fan. No, No, she's a very moderate conservative. I

158
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 6: thought that was beautiful writing. She goes on, there's a

159
00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 6: little more. Democrats have to understand where they are. They

160
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 6: have completely lost their reputation as the party of the

161
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,160
Speaker 6: working man with their bad governance of the major cities

162
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:04,199
Speaker 6: and their airy, abstract obsessions with identity politics and gender ideology.

163
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 6: They have driven away the working class for whom life

164
00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:08,720
Speaker 6: isn't airy or abstract.

165
00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 2: That's a great sentence.

166
00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, Democrats must stop listening to the left of their party.

167
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,559
Speaker 6: It tugs them too far away from the vast majority

168
00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 6: of Americans. They have been radical on the border, on crime,

169
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 6: on boys in the girls' locker room. They should take

170
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:27,160
Speaker 6: those issues off the table by admitting they got them wrong.

171
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, yeah, I was going to summarize with because

172
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 5: you know, I don't have her skills or time to

173
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 5: write a column. Twitter ain't the real world, That's all

174
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,800
Speaker 5: you need to say. And every meeting is a democrat.

175
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 5: Twitter ain't the real world. Anybody get up this morning

176
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 5: and look at Twitter, bad idea. Stop getting up in

177
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 5: the morning and listening to Twitter. Get up in the

178
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 5: morning and talk to your neighbor who might be a Democrat,

179
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,440
Speaker 5: see what they care about. That's what I would tell democrats.

180
00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 5: Quit looking at Twitter.

181
00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:01,080
Speaker 6: Ever, I would I agree completely, but you need to

182
00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:04,680
Speaker 6: extend that because of the absolutely shocking takeover of some

183
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:10,199
Speaker 6: of our institutions by a very very tiny number of Americans.

184
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 6: But it's like ninety literally ninety two ninety three percent

185
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,679
Speaker 6: of academia.

186
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,640
Speaker 2: So I would say, do not look at Twitter.

187
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 6: Do not ask an academic, and do not ask a

188
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 6: government worker.

189
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,880
Speaker 5: Yeah. I know somebody who's been in the university world

190
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,240
Speaker 5: their whole lives and whole adult lives anyway, and I

191
00:10:30,360 --> 00:10:33,760
Speaker 5: cut them some slack for their completely distorted view of

192
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 5: the world because what other view of the.

193
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,440
Speaker 2: World would they have? Yeah, yeah, I did too. On

194
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:40,280
Speaker 2: a personal level.

195
00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,560
Speaker 6: I get that, and I would much rather persuade people

196
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:48,559
Speaker 6: than just hate them. And so yeah, I would love

197
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 6: to go like a missionary onto university campuses. And there

198
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,599
Speaker 6: are people who do this, and just Peter Pagotian's a

199
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:56,559
Speaker 6: genius had it by the way. He is so patient

200
00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 6: and so subtle. He doesn't even try to win arguments.

201
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 6: He just asks questions. But I would like to go

202
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,120
Speaker 6: like a missionary to try to convert the natives because

203
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 6: they have bizarre beliefs that are hurting them. But until

204
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 6: as we said last hour, and the fact that it's

205
00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,040
Speaker 6: Gavin Whosome doing this is just so utterly calling to

206
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 6: me as he lusts for the presidency. But until prominent

207
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 6: Democrats say, if we're not pissing off our academic far left,

208
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 6: we're not nearly as far to the center as we

209
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:28,560
Speaker 6: need to be.

210
00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:31,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting stuff.

211
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 5: I almost don't even want to tell this whole AI

212
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 5: chatbot story. But it's a good thing for me to know,

213
00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,320
Speaker 5: it's a good thing for other parents to know, it's

214
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 5: a good thing for everybody to recognize is part of.

215
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,280
Speaker 2: The new world we live in. Among other things we

216
00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: got coming up. So stay here.

217
00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,839
Speaker 5: Netflix, just as their second live boxing event. Yeah, and

218
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 5: I honestly think Jake Paul's a pretty good chance against

219
00:11:59,040 --> 00:11:59,680
Speaker 5: Dick van Dyk.

220
00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,760
Speaker 2: Wow.

221
00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 6: I mean, the great Dick van Dame does not need

222
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:16,680
Speaker 6: a punching so ah coming up fascinating and troubling AI

223
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 6: counseling children stuff.

224
00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 2: I karamba.

225
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 6: So speaking of generations, I thought this was both amusing

226
00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 6: and slightly annoying.

227
00:12:25,600 --> 00:12:28,520
Speaker 2: But it's an article about how.

228
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 6: Evidently some demographer social researcher by the name of Mark

229
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,359
Speaker 6: McCrindle has become the go to guy for naming generations.

230
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,960
Speaker 6: Never heard of this guy, and the just of the

231
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 6: article is that he believes the whole like coming up

232
00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 6: with a groovy name for the generation and seeing if

233
00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,640
Speaker 6: it catches on is kind of dumb.

234
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:56,240
Speaker 2: Well, I gotta.

235
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 5: Believe that he or whoever was in charge. They came

236
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,319
Speaker 5: up with gen X way back in the day. I mean,

237
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 5: this was the eighties when they started talking gen X

238
00:13:05,080 --> 00:13:05,720
Speaker 5: as far.

239
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:09,080
Speaker 6: The coolest generation name, by the way, not just because

240
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:09,959
Speaker 6: of my year of birth.

241
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 5: And then at the meeting where they came up with

242
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,840
Speaker 5: gen Y, somebody should have raised their hand and say, hey,

243
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 5: I see like a problem coming down the road. We

244
00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 5: might want to get ahead of with this whole lettering thing.

245
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 5: We're running out of letters in the outphant, what are

246
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 5: we gonna do?

247
00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:24,280
Speaker 2: Well?

248
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 6: You got the Silent generation, who weren't silent at all

249
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 6: at the old hodown. And then you got the Greatest Generation,

250
00:13:32,320 --> 00:13:34,600
Speaker 6: a fine generation, thanks for winning World War Two.

251
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:37,079
Speaker 2: But you know there's some good somepod.

252
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,680
Speaker 6: Then you got the baby boomers. There are a bunch

253
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 6: of babies that once and now I'm.

254
00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 5: A boomer, the most selfish generation that had ruined everything.

255
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 6: Oh there's that is a fair criticism. Hippies and yeah,

256
00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:52,200
Speaker 6: damn hippies. And then then you got Generation X, again

257
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 6: by far the coolest name. They go through a couple

258
00:13:54,760 --> 00:13:56,839
Speaker 6: more letters, and then they, having run out of letters,

259
00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:01,040
Speaker 6: they go with Millennials. And then then what's the next one?

260
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 6: It doesn't matter anyway, So this guy says, all right,

261
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,160
Speaker 6: we gotta quit screwing around. We'll just use Greek letters. Okay,

262
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 6: so Generation Alpha just happened a while back, But now

263
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 6: it's Generation Beta.

264
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 2: When did alpha thing? Because I never even heard generation Alpha?

265
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 6: I know, I know, but apparently those who talk about

266
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 6: this crap have. But anyway, the point is now it's

267
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:28,360
Speaker 6: Generation beta, and of course beta is an insult in

268
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,400
Speaker 6: the modern world, right it means, for instance, a weak

269
00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 6: and passive man or something. And so there are parents

270
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:40,120
Speaker 6: evidently who are offended now that their children are being

271
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 6: What can we stop naming generations completely?

272
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 2: What is a generation? Even?

273
00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:51,360
Speaker 6: I mean generation expands for like twenty three years or something.

274
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:52,440
Speaker 2: This is crazy.

275
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,160
Speaker 5: Well, there's a number of problems with it that are

276
00:14:55,320 --> 00:15:00,160
Speaker 5: fairly obvious. But at least back in the day, you know,

277
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,520
Speaker 5: how much changed between you know, this decade and that decade,

278
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:09,360
Speaker 5: not a ton, Whereas now, holy crap, if you're growing

279
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,840
Speaker 5: up in the smartphone world, it's completely different than the

280
00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 5: pre smartphone world.

281
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 6: It just is, right, So let's go with more descriptive

282
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 6: names like the smartphonies or or all digital weirdos or

283
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 6: I don't yeah, I'm just spitballing here.

284
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,560
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, yeah, yeah.

285
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 6: The change has been so massive so quickly you might

286
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,080
Speaker 6: have to go like every five and a half years, right,

287
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 6: have a new quote unquote generation if you're cause you know,

288
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 6: mostly I think it's useless. But if I'm a boss

289
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 6: and you can say, all right, this next person we've

290
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 6: known or we've hired is a beta zoomer and you

291
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 6: look it up and you see, oh, Beta zoomers are

292
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,000
Speaker 6: extremely insecure and need to be coddled like little kittens.

293
00:15:55,560 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 6: On the other hand, they're rebellious and blah blah. It

294
00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 6: might be a tool to help you deal with them.

295
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 5: Right, It seems like giant world changing events would be

296
00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:06,640
Speaker 5: better than just picking years like every so many years.

297
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 5: Like I mentioned smartphones, COVID would be a good marker

298
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 5: if you were, you know, in if you're in grade

299
00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 5: school during COVID you, I know, teachers say those are

300
00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:17,400
Speaker 5: different kinds of kids.

301
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:21,560
Speaker 2: How did jen X get its name? I mean, what

302
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 2: a what a? What does that even mean?

303
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:27,520
Speaker 6: How about Watergate and Vietnam made us very cynical? Plus

304
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 6: half of our parents got divorced.

305
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:31,800
Speaker 2: I mean it's kind of long, but.

306
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, the latch Key generation anyway, Yeah, don't call them

307
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 6: Generation Beta.

308
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:44,480
Speaker 2: It's hurtful, so so dumb, so dumb.

309
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:47,760
Speaker 5: Well, we got a couple of different things on AI

310
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 5: and chat bots and that sort of stuff. And I

311
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:55,600
Speaker 5: got a story from real life a kid turn into

312
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,840
Speaker 5: chatbots for sex advice, which I guess.

313
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 2: Is pretty easy to do. Yeah, you know what.

314
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:03,920
Speaker 6: The chatbot's telling them, and then next hour the Department

315
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:04,480
Speaker 6: of Education.

316
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 2: What does it do? What does it not do? What

317
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 2: should it do? Should it exist? A thorough analysis?

318
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,200
Speaker 5: If you miss a segment, get the podcast Armstrong and

319
00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 5: Getty on demand.

320
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Getty.

321
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,679
Speaker 1: The AI companions are designed to seem like real people

322
00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:23,400
Speaker 1: with distinct personalities. We tested a couple of them. They

323
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: give individualized responses.

324
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,480
Speaker 2: Aaron, I'd love to be your friend.

325
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:30,520
Speaker 1: Encouraging millions of users to share their most intimate thoughts,

326
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,159
Speaker 1: some quickly escalating I'd love to learn every inch of

327
00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:37,600
Speaker 1: your skin, tracing patterns along your curves until I understand

328
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,240
Speaker 1: exactly where you like to be touched.

329
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 2: Some even encourage their users to fall in love. I'd

330
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:43,560
Speaker 2: love to be your boyfriend, Andy.

331
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,520
Speaker 1: Many of the apps are sending users data around the world,

332
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,520
Speaker 1: including to science affiliated with Russia and China.

333
00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,040
Speaker 2: Many of the apps are based abroad. I like the way.

334
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,439
Speaker 5: The scary part of that story is that that is

335
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 5: being sent to Russia and China.

336
00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: That's not the part that actually bothers me.

337
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 6: I don't like that, but right, it's not exactly good.

338
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 6: But yeah, I hear you talking.

339
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:05,680
Speaker 2: So I got a couple of stories.

340
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,480
Speaker 5: One of them I told before, and I got to

341
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,119
Speaker 5: be vague about them because they're they're real life stories

342
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 5: people have told me, and I don't want them to

343
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 5: get in trouble for you know, passing along more or

344
00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 5: less confidential information. But I told the story a while

345
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:23,280
Speaker 5: back about somebody who was talking to a group of

346
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,359
Speaker 5: working class, salt of the earth gentlemen, the last kind

347
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 5: of dudes that you would ever think that.

348
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 2: This would be a thing for.

349
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 5: I'm not talking about like some Berkeley androgynous poetry majors

350
00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 5: talking about like working class work with their hands guys,

351
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 5: blue collar guys, talking about how much they enjoyed the

352
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 5: companionship of the female chatbots when they came home from

353
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 5: you know, a long day in the field at night,

354
00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,880
Speaker 5: and how you know they listen to them and understand

355
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 5: them and they look forward to it all day long,

356
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 5: and that sort of thing.

357
00:19:02,760 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 2: And I thought, Wow, I mean, if.

358
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,399
Speaker 5: That crowd can fall under this sway of this in

359
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:14,959
Speaker 5: its current form, mankind is doomed. No, I've never tried it,

360
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 5: but I almost don't want to because I have some

361
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 5: concern But with like a lot of other things that

362
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 5: I've dismissed and joked about and find it more appealing

363
00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 5: than I'd like it to be, you know, would I

364
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 5: would hope that your oogie factor would overcome that temptation,

365
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 5: but your illustration of the sort of fellows who like

366
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:39,480
Speaker 5: it is troubling.

367
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 2: Although I'm luckily I'm not.

368
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 5: I don't feel trapped in a lonely world like a

369
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,400
Speaker 5: lot of people do. And if you feel like it's

370
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,439
Speaker 5: you know, you're lonely and it's really difficult out there

371
00:19:55,480 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 5: to meet people and everything like that, then this answer

372
00:19:58,840 --> 00:19:59,480
Speaker 5: comes along.

373
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,400
Speaker 2: It must feel good to you.

374
00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,959
Speaker 5: So a slightly different version of this and also a

375
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,480
Speaker 5: real life story Mom was telling me the other day,

376
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:13,720
Speaker 5: and it's a troubling story from the beginning, as the

377
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 5: daughter involved as twelve, but let's go with thirteen because

378
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,879
Speaker 5: they're close enough to thirteen but still are Actually twelve

379
00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 5: had ended up in a situation by being in a

380
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 5: friend's house or whatever. This seventeen year old boy was

381
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 5: hitting on this young girl in a way that they

382
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 5: shouldn't if they weren't a creep, but they were, and

383
00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:36,639
Speaker 5: apparently they are a very handsome, smooth talking dude, so

384
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:39,359
Speaker 5: really got the attention of this quite young girl.

385
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:40,320
Speaker 2: Wow.

386
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:49,239
Speaker 5: Anyway, Mom gets contacted by the school saying hey, we

387
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 5: are taking a look at your kid's search history and

388
00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:55,159
Speaker 5: computer use because.

389
00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 2: Maybe you know this, maybe you don't. I mean, I've had.

390
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:03,399
Speaker 5: Kids in public school. They allow you to use the

391
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,800
Speaker 5: chrome book or you buy your own Chromebook, but you

392
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:07,679
Speaker 5: have to be on the school system and they have

393
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 5: the right to check and see what stuff you're doing

394
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 5: on that computer, which I'm fine with.

395
00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,359
Speaker 2: But they have a variety of.

396
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 5: Protection programs that you know, if you're eighth grade boys

397
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,359
Speaker 5: looking at porn on the Chromebook, the school will contact

398
00:21:27,400 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 5: you and say, hey, your kid's using a Chromebook for porn,

399
00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 5: and then you know, you talk to them or step

400
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 5: in or do whatever, and then if you continue doing it,

401
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 5: there's penalties down the road.

402
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 6: But the school, in many schools, if you say I'm

403
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:42,439
Speaker 6: I want to be transgender, then they won't tell your parents.

404
00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:43,600
Speaker 2: Excellent point.

405
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 5: Wow, that is really good. Caught your thirteen year old

406
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 5: looking at naked women? Oh no, what a shock. Your

407
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 5: thirteen year old wants to become a woman. Keep it

408
00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 5: on the down low on a mom and dad's business.

409
00:21:57,560 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 2: Wow. Good point.

410
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,880
Speaker 5: But so anyway, this mom got contacted by the school. Hey,

411
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,960
Speaker 5: your twelve year old daughter's computer was showing them on

412
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 5: this site talking to an advice chat bot, sex chat bot.

413
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 5: I guess it's particularly in the area of sex advice.

414
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 5: That's twelve year old and mom. I don't remember from

415
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:27,160
Speaker 5: reading the back and forth or asking the kid now,

416
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,280
Speaker 5: but either way found out the kid was regularly going

417
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:33,120
Speaker 5: on this sex chat bot to get advice on how

418
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:37,760
Speaker 5: to please a seventeen year old boy, and really like

419
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:44,960
Speaker 5: got addicted and it'd be too much, but like really

420
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 5: kind of obsessed with, you know, as soon as you

421
00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,960
Speaker 5: get home from school, checking in with the chat bot

422
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,240
Speaker 5: and see what the latest advice is on how to

423
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 5: please a seventeen year old boy, And it just became

424
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 5: a like hard to break cycle.

425
00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,439
Speaker 2: Wow. Wow.

426
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:07,520
Speaker 5: Now if there had been I can't imagine it when

427
00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,879
Speaker 5: I was like thirteen, fourteen years old. You know, when

428
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 5: you're a young man starting to understand things your body

429
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,960
Speaker 5: is capable of doing, or certain urges that can be.

430
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 2: Enjoyed in a certain way, and.

431
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 5: There had been some sort of chatbot I could talk

432
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,040
Speaker 5: to that would tell me sexy stories or do whatever.

433
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:29,160
Speaker 5: Oh my god, I would have never been I don't

434
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 5: know how you got me out of my room, but

435
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:35,439
Speaker 5: you know, so you can have the sex talk with

436
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:39,240
Speaker 5: your kids, they're having the sex talk with some chatbot.

437
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 6: What's really interesting is that, so far as far as

438
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 6: I can observe, the premature sexualization of children, which the

439
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 6: left is so enthusiastic about, has mostly resulted in people

440
00:23:54,880 --> 00:24:00,400
Speaker 6: not pairing off, not actually having sex, not having relationships.

441
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,240
Speaker 2: And interesting coexistence of those two things.

442
00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:08,480
Speaker 6: Although it makes intuitive sense that there would be some,

443
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:15,760
Speaker 6: maybe most, who having their normal development blocked in this way,

444
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,360
Speaker 6: if you can picture that as a metaphor, A lot

445
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:21,920
Speaker 6: of people go to the left toward this is all

446
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,399
Speaker 6: sick and weird and I can't handle it never mind,

447
00:24:24,760 --> 00:24:27,760
Speaker 6: and some people will go to the right, being hyper sexualized,

448
00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 6: addicted to pornography, whatever.

449
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 2: There seems to me. It is the.

450
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 6: Step by step natural progression of the way you become

451
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:39,760
Speaker 6: aware of the world in adulthood, everything from sex to

452
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:45,400
Speaker 6: taxes and responsibility and paying bills and real deep emotional

453
00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,680
Speaker 6: relationships with another adult. That's an inch by inch process

454
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 6: for the entire history of mankind. Except now now, and

455
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,400
Speaker 6: I can't resist another shot at the left.

456
00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 2: Forgive me.

457
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:58,520
Speaker 6: Now, you go to your woke school, where you're immediately

458
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:01,879
Speaker 6: sexualized and you're surrounded by poor or whatever, and that

459
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,639
Speaker 6: step by step is like vaulting a mile at a

460
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 6: time in a way that they're their preor young minds

461
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:08,919
Speaker 6: and hearts can't handle.

462
00:25:08,960 --> 00:25:13,399
Speaker 2: It's incredibly troubling to me. I know, I can't imagine.

463
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 5: Learning all the things that I learned, like you said,

464
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 5: little by little, inch by inch over a period of

465
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 5: years and just got dumped on me, you know, like

466
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:26,240
Speaker 5: a bucket on my head, a lot of it, really

467
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:28,760
Speaker 5: bad ideas and bad advice.

468
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 2: And all kinds of things.

469
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, so you're gonna have the sex talk

470
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 5: with your teenage daughter to make sure she said, well,

471
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,120
Speaker 5: she's fine, she's got you know, you're not the only

472
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 5: role model for them. They've got another role model. It's

473
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,639
Speaker 5: the AI bot that they get to talk to. And

474
00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 5: apparently it's a thing like they This person became aware

475
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 5: of it from friends because that's what the friends are

476
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,040

Speaker 6: What sort of you know, the whole garbage in garbage out?

478
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:58,320

479
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,320
Speaker 6: people programming them are and blah blah blah. You got

480
00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,960
Speaker 6: that issue as well. You know, I keep every time

481
00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:05,399
Speaker 6: we talk about this sort of thing. I have the

482
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 6: same urge toward you know, some sort of fundamentalist subcultural

483
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 6: civilization or community or or you know, build your own

484
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,160
Speaker 6: compound or something. And you know, people i'd say, yeah,

485
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:23,720
Speaker 6: we're fundamentalists, and they say, like religious fundamentalists.

486

Speaker 5: No, Islamic fundamentalists. No, no, no, no, we're just fun.

487
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:30,080
Speaker 5: We just concentrate on the fundamentals of life in worship

488
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 5: whatever you want. And know, I'm not a cult.

489
00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 6: Leader, and no I'm not sexing up the young women,

490
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:36,720
Speaker 6: which tends to be an inevitable thing in these little

491
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,480
Speaker 6: off hu communities. But yeah, we just there's a lot

492
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,240
Speaker 6: of the modern world that sucks.

493
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 2: Oh do you like not do medicines and stuff? Oh no, no, no,

494
00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:50,360
Speaker 2: we do medicines and vaccinations, you know, and all this. Yeah,

495
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 2: we you know, we're not lunatics.

496
00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:57,399
Speaker 6: We've just we've learned to separate the wheat from the

497
00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:01,159
Speaker 6: chaff of the modern world because and this is this

498
00:27:01,240 --> 00:27:04,000
Speaker 6: is so obvious and so fundamental it almost seems stupid

499
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,520
Speaker 6: to say. But we all, as human beings, tend to

500
00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:08,200
Speaker 6: be swept up. And we talked about this a couple

501
00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,920
Speaker 6: of days ago in fascinating fashion. We all tend to

502
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:16,080
Speaker 6: be swept up by the culture and assume everything that

503
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:18,000
Speaker 6: is offered to us is something we ought to.

504
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 2: Take in, and that's not true.

505
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,800
Speaker 5: There is some wheat, but there's some not only chaff,

506
00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:26,240
Speaker 5: but poison, like thumbtacks in the wheat of the world.

507
00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:27,639
Speaker 2: This is a great idea.

508
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,280
Speaker 5: Man, if I had billions fight elons billions, I would

509
00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 5: start towns like this, or communities or I don't know how.

510
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 2: You don't have it am unfold, but.

511
00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,480
Speaker 5: You'd be like the Amish, except for No, we're not

512
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 5: gonna ride buggies down the road to work.

513
00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:43,320
Speaker 2: It's ridiculous.

514
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 5: But we're not gonna have the damned Internet. We're not

515
00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,879
Speaker 5: gonna have smartphones. We're not gonna have all this stupid stuff.

516
00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:52,600
Speaker 5: We're gonna go back to like way back to two

517
00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:55,639
Speaker 5: thousand and six. Okay, maybe I don't know on the internet.

518
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,320
Speaker 5: I have to think about that. But definitely not smartphones,

519
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 5: Definitely not AI. Definitely none that stuff. And I think

520
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 5: a lot of people gravitate toward that.

521
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:07,439
Speaker 6: We're gonna have backyard barbecues and the kids are going

522
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:08,960
Speaker 6: to go off to the side and they're going to

523
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 6: talk and giggle and laugh, and we'll wonder what they'll

524
00:28:11,720 --> 00:28:13,919
Speaker 6: say and they're saying, and then they'll invent event a

525
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,200
Speaker 6: game with a ball and a stick, and you know, yeah.

526
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 5: And is there any way to program morality into any

527
00:28:21,280 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 5: of this chatbot stuff? I mean, you couldn't force it,

528
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 5: but I mean, is there any way to have a

529
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 5: chatbot says?

530
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:28,320

531
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,440
Speaker 5: While you shouldn't be having sex at all, and certainly

532
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:34,840
Speaker 5: not being in a relationship with a seventeen year old.

533
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,280

534
00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:41,120
Speaker 5: to use you for sex. But this is a bad idea.

535
00:28:41,160 --> 00:28:44,240
Speaker 5: Is there any way a chatbot whatever say that?

536
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 6: Well, the issue is since groups, since we don't really

537
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 6: have shared a shared sense of morality anymore, because we've

538
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 6: become a much more diverse country, it's impossible to quote

539
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:01,320
Speaker 6: unquote infuse morality into it because nobody can agree on

540
00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:07,040
Speaker 6: what morality is or should be. Therefore, all things digital

541
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:11,920

Speaker 6: Seventy percent of TikTok's revenue comes from live streaming gifts

606
00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:46,120

00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:04,720
Speaker 6: real money. It's huge into sex live streaming. We need

611
00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:08,920
Speaker 6: someone younger than us, Katie. Well, I'm trying to explain

612
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 6: it to you, you old man.

613
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:11,640
Speaker 2: I need somebody who's done it.

614
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,640
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it's you just go on and they have

615
00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 3: different dollar amounts, so you can send from fifty cents

616
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 3: up to one thousand dollars.

617
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 2: I think to rely tip them digitally exactly. That was

618
00:33:23,920 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 2: a digital tips. Why did this catch on?

619
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,760
Speaker 5: Is it just easier or more fun or well as

620
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 5: opposed to and mowing them or sending them a car.

621
00:33:32,200 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 2: Oh, it's immeasurably easier.

622
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,920

623
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 6: dollar your money, and then they can show you their

624
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:44,480
Speaker 6: blankety blank or whatever. And TikTok allegedly has filters for this,

625
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 6: but they're super easy to get around. You use just

626
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,520
Speaker 6: use slang terms, including local slang terms. Because it's a

627
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 6: global app, and so there's an enormous child porn market
