So that's Bruce Springsteen announcing him and the East 0:01:00.360 --> 0:01:02.280 Street Band are going to tour the United States a 0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:05.240 bunch of angry eighty year olds. But if you were 0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.720 bringing like all the greatest hits of Bruce Springsteen in 0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:11.520 the Eastreet Band, I'd be really excited. If you're bringing 0:01:11.640 --> 0:01:17.600 speeches of freedom over fear or whatever, I'm not interested. 0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:19.400 I will pay a lot of money to not have 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:22.240 to go to that. Yeah, no kidding, what's the ticket price? 0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.240 I'll pay you that if you'll stay away. 0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:27.280 From me, and we're both huge Bruce fans as a 0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:30.679 songwriter and musician, but more than I've ever been. 0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:32.479 I did such a deep dive on him and listened 0:01:32.480 --> 0:01:36.280 to his autobiography, got into a lot of his old 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.640 stuff and rarity clips that he's been putting on albums. 0:01:38.680 --> 0:01:42.320 He is underrated and he's pretty highly rated. Yeah, agreed, 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:46.960 he is freaking unbelievable. But he went off the rails 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:49.240 politically and he cares more about that now than music, 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.520 which I guess is the old man disease or something. 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:53.960 I don't know. That's a hell of a promotion of 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:59.080 your tour, no kidding, And you know it's funny. Hanson 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:02.560 was describing the video of that as they're all staring 0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:04.600 in the camera like a gang. What are you gonna 0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:05.680 hit me with your walker? 0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:09.920 It's gotta be like you don't get that much enjoyment 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:14.720 out of the music thing anymore, Yeah, or something, because 0:02:14.760 --> 0:02:18.160 like Eric Clapton, I just actually came across this yesterday 0:02:18.160 --> 0:02:20.800 by accident, because I was gonna find an old Clapton 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.480 song to play for my son, who's taken guitar lessons. 0:02:24.200 --> 0:02:27.200 One of my favorite Clapton solos of all time and 0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.320 his most recent album, which is mostly his anger about 0:02:31.360 --> 0:02:37.280 COVID restrictions. It's like it's like he gave up on 0:02:37.440 --> 0:02:39.799 wanting to be a rock star or a blues legend 0:02:39.880 --> 0:02:42.040 and cat like COVID restrictions. 0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:45.160 Well, you know, he's done that, he's checked that box. 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:48.960 And I get as a human being being rescless to 0:02:49.080 --> 0:02:52.040 move on to your next chapter and to have renewed purpose. 0:02:52.360 --> 0:02:55.079 I mean, Bruce and Clapton don't need more money, they 0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:58.480 don't need more adoration. That they're looking for satisfaction. I 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.600 get that. On the other hand, it ruins that other 0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:04.760 thing that got you in front of me, and so 0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:06.959 go away. I don't want to hear it, COVID restrictions. 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:08.959 I'm with there on that too. 0:03:10.080 --> 0:03:14.720 Any Who, this is good news. This is breaking news. 0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:17.960 The Olympic Committee has made a big announcement. You know, 0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.480 the next Summer Olympics is in Los Angeles. It's the 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:23.760 United States in LA. Twenty twenty eight Summer Games. Ain't 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:27.560 gonna be no trans women playing though they have been banned. 0:03:27.680 --> 0:03:28.480 What do you mean? Men? 0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:32.919 Transgender women athletes are now excluded for the Olympics after 0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:36.600 the IOC agreed to a new eligibility policy just a 0:03:36.600 --> 0:03:40.200 couple of hours ago that audio ens with men. That 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:43.400 aligns with what US President Donald Trump wanted and his 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:48.040 executive order on women's sports. And they actually say at 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:51.040 one point keep this in mind California high schools. There 0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:56.200 are lots of high schools around the country actually, according 0:03:56.200 --> 0:03:59.400 to the IOC, and they're corrupt and they're socialists and 0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:02.120 all kinds of things to not like. Also with three heads, 0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.440 what they said, the eligibility policy that will apply from 0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:09.600 the LA Olympics protects fairness, safety, and integrity in the 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:10.600 female category. 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:16.279 Yeah, man, good for you. Yep, good for you. Love that. Oh. 0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.680 One other note from the world of sports. Well done, Michael. 0:04:20.680 --> 0:04:23.400 We were talking about the first Major League Baseball game 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:27.040 of the year. It was last night Giants and Yankees, 0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:31.720 and how the Netflix broadcast, yes it was on Netflix, 0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:35.279 was so weird because there's like an internet show or 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:37.359 an interview show rather with a baseball game in the 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:41.600 background for a significant part. A good friend with ties 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:45.320 to Major League baseball just pointed out that they missed 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:49.720 the first ball strike challenge in Major League history. So 0:04:49.760 --> 0:04:52.000 they were talking because they didn't realize it was happening. 0:04:52.040 --> 0:04:54.000 And cut to a live interview with a manager in 0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:56.520 the dugout, which is always stupid anyway. 0:04:57.600 --> 0:05:01.680 They must have decided that baseball, the actual game, is 0:05:01.720 --> 0:05:04.279 too boring, and so we need to get you know, 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:06.560 former stars up here in the booth and interview them 0:05:06.560 --> 0:05:08.280 and go down and talk to players on the field, but. 0:05:08.360 --> 0:05:12.080 And pro wrestlers too. The whole broadcast was like a 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.880 hyper teen TikTok dream. 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:20.919 In other sports news, we didn't give this enough shrift 0:05:21.040 --> 0:05:24.480 the other day when we had the headline from the 0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:26.200 World of Professional Cornhole. 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:30.120 Oh yes, quadruple this head is now we're on the 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:32.520 major sports Good This is one of the great headlines 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:33.040 of all time. 0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:40.960 Oh yeah, quadruple amputee Comma pro corn hole player allegedly 0:05:41.040 --> 0:05:44.279 shot and killed acquaintance during argument, then drove off with 0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:44.800 the body. 0:05:46.680 --> 0:05:49.520 Holy cow, you want to talk about more questions than answers. 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.279 Where do you? Where do you go in order or 0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:02.200 like or order of importance? Or do you start with 0:06:02.279 --> 0:06:04.560 the cornhole or the murder? It's up to you. 0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:08.359 He's twenty seven years old. I've seen the videos of 0:06:08.400 --> 0:06:12.800 him playing corn hole. Oh you have yeah, okay, he 0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:14.680 got no legs or arms. 0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:20.240 Clearly get to how he hurls the bag. 0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:26.440 Who's the Southern comedian with the podcast Theovon. Theovon has 0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:28.560 got a bit about uh kiddy new in high school 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:31.320 who used to win all these fights and he didn't 0:06:31.360 --> 0:06:34.480 have any arms, and I know, and he always says, 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:37.760 I'm not kidding, zero arms. 0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:40.120 That was a funny line. 0:06:40.680 --> 0:06:43.440 But this guy's got zero arms and legs, but he's 0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.440 got he's got arms down to like just past his shoulders. 0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.000 He's got enough to like put the bean bag on there, 0:06:49.040 --> 0:06:51.599 and he hurls it toward the thing, and he's really 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:52.160 good at get. 0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.400 It in the right spot. They are I believe the 0:06:54.440 --> 0:06:57.920 board's twenty nine feet apart. That's quite a hurl, yeah, 0:06:57.960 --> 0:07:01.799 and he can do it resourceful, evidently quick to anger, however, 0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:07.599 which brings us back to the whole Well murder. He'd 0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:10.080 been thriving as a professional cornhole player, getting a lot 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:11.960 of attention because of the fact that he's a quaded 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:17.760 group of amputee and had posted a lot of videos 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:20.720 of firing handguns. That's another thing he manages to do 0:07:20.920 --> 0:07:24.800 with with barely any arms and no legs. So he's 0:07:24.840 --> 0:07:26.520 into shooting guns anyway. 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:29.440 He was driving three pals in his Tesla SUV during 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:31.760 a late night joy ride in Maryland Sunday when he 0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:35.440 got into a heated argument with his front passenger. So 0:07:35.480 --> 0:07:39.440 the guy sitting next to you, M, no, we're not 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.200 playing that song again, just we played it five times 0:07:42.240 --> 0:07:45.920 in a row or whatever it was. The argument turned violent, 0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:50.680 and he allegedly shot and killed the dude sitting next 0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:54.760 to him, and then he kept driving with the body 0:07:54.760 --> 0:07:56.160 and then eventually dumped it somewhere. 0:07:57.840 --> 0:08:02.280 Wow, well he must have color that song. Yeah, I 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:06.280 don't really I'm tired of about but yeah, well that 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:08.280 is a colorful human being right there. 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.760 God, And he had overcome so much and now he's 0:08:10.800 --> 0:08:13.920 going to spend the rest of his life in prisons, 0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:16.960 which will not be an easy thing, I assume not 0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:19.440 unless he gets a cornhole league going. 0:08:20.000 --> 0:08:23.000 Yeah, I'm a professional athlete, I've got a car, I 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.240 got friends in spite of my handicaps. 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:32.560 But man, do I have a temper. Yeah, there's got 0:08:32.559 --> 0:08:34.760 to be something. There's got to be a documentary there 0:08:35.720 --> 0:08:39.280 with this guy's life. I mean, all the things he 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:43.600 had to overcome, just period, without ever being a cornhole champion, 0:08:43.880 --> 0:08:46.280 just getting through life to age twenty seven. 0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:50.559 And I'm not talking about like a crappy dateline documentary. 0:08:50.840 --> 0:08:56.120 I want ken Burns involved, right, six parts, at least 0:08:56.160 --> 0:09:03.040 six parts with famous actors doing voiceovers exactly Tom Hanks explaining, 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:06.960 and then I lost my other arm. Do we have 0:09:07.000 --> 0:09:09.040 any idea how he came to be in the state 0:09:09.040 --> 0:09:12.360 he's in. I mean, it's none of my business, but. 0:09:13.000 --> 0:09:15.480 It appears to be birth defect. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:20.360 Oh okay, but I don't know that. Wow, Wow, I 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.720 don't know. Maybe he fought an alligator. I mean, he's 0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:27.400 got a temper problem, fought it unsuccessfully. That depends how 0:09:27.400 --> 0:09:28.280 you look at it. I guess. 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:34.640 Moving along, So Trump said some stuff just now about 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:37.520 Iran in a big cabinet meeting and other stuff on 0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:37.800 the way. 0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:38.240 Stay here. 0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:47.120 They are negotiating, by the way, and they want to 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:49.120 make a deal so badly, but they're afraid to say 0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:51.400 it because they figured they'll be. 0:09:51.360 --> 0:09:54.839 Killed by their own people. They're also afraid they'll be 0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:55.559 killed by us. 0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:00.680 There's never been ahead of a country it wanted that 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:02.960 job less than being the head of Iran. 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:11.360 I don't want it. Well, listen to some of the 0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:14.600 things they say. We have very clearly. They say, I 0:10:14.640 --> 0:10:15.199 don't want it. 0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.880 You'd like to make you the next Supreme leader. 0:10:18.640 --> 0:10:20.120 No, thank you, I don't want it. 0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:22.559 So that's a live event yesterday. 0:10:22.600 --> 0:10:23.160 That was Trump. 0:10:23.160 --> 0:10:25.120 But he just had a cabinet meeting, you know where. 0:10:25.120 --> 0:10:26.800 He's sitting there at the long table and he's got 0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:29.320 Marco on one side and Pete on the other. He said, 0:10:29.320 --> 0:10:32.160 some danged interesting things. Just roll onto the next one, Michael. 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:36.480 But they say, oh, we're not talking to him. Anybody 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:39.600 would know that time, and only a total friend. They're 0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:41.960 our fools. They're very smart actually in a certain way. 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:45.839 And they're great negotiators. I say they're lousy fighters, but 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:52.800 they're great negotiators, and they're big into work out a deal. 0:10:53.520 --> 0:10:54.920 I don't know if we'll be able to do that. 0:10:55.000 --> 0:10:56.800 I don't know if we're willing to do that. They 0:10:56.800 --> 0:10:59.640 should have done that four weeks ago. They should have 0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:00.680 done it years ago. 0:11:01.480 --> 0:11:04.560 I had a friend who was Iranian American and he 0:11:04.640 --> 0:11:06.360 talked very frankly about it, that it's part of the 0:11:06.360 --> 0:11:10.760 culture to be a brutal, no holds barred negotiator. It's 0:11:10.800 --> 0:11:15.280 admired there. It's not bullying or cheating or anything. No 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.760 that's that's that's what you're supposed to be good at. 0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:22.040 Well. Cultural for the other guy, cultural differences are interesting. 0:11:22.360 --> 0:11:28.480 So like if we use this example yesterday, like you're 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:30.200 trying to sell a car, and a guy's opening bit 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:34.720 is not only am I not going to pay you 0:11:34.800 --> 0:11:37.360 forty thousand dollars for your car, You're gonna pay me 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:39.360 a couple of hundred dollars and I get the car. 0:11:40.800 --> 0:11:43.959 And you'd think you're a crazy person, but you're saying, culturally, 0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:45.199 they go really. 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:48.760 Really hard, right, that's right, just part of the way 0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:51.400 you do it. So we would be shocked. And if 0:11:51.440 --> 0:11:54.320 you said you're not arguing, you're not bargaining in good faith, 0:11:54.520 --> 0:11:57.720 they would they would say, could be in a baby. Okay, 0:11:57.760 --> 0:11:58.800 well the game is played. 0:11:59.040 --> 0:12:01.640 Well that's worth knowing that because they're opening gambit of 0:12:02.160 --> 0:12:04.240 the United States has to pay reparations for everything. 0:12:04.280 --> 0:12:07.080 They mommed. I mean that's silly, but that's just the 0:12:07.120 --> 0:12:10.960 way paying you five hundred dollars to take my car. Right, 0:12:12.240 --> 0:12:14.080 This is a good point Trump makes next. 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.280 And you know that because why did they shoot all 0:12:16.320 --> 0:12:18.640 these countries that weren't even really involved with them? They 0:12:18.679 --> 0:12:22.680 weren't involved, They had no big problems because they're sick, 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.000 because they want to take over the Middle East, not 0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:28.560 just Israel. Certainly Israel would have been the first on 0:12:28.640 --> 0:12:31.840 the list. They would have used nuclear weapons. A nuclear 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:34.200 you don't need too many of them, but they would 0:12:34.240 --> 0:12:36.280 have used a nuclear weapon on Israel, and they would 0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:38.959 have used it on the other in the neighbors, and 0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:42.040 then they would have come after us, and we had 0:12:42.080 --> 0:12:44.800 a week president. They would have done great damage. But 0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:47.160 fortunately you don't have a week president and I knew 0:12:47.280 --> 0:12:48.079 what was happening. 0:12:48.360 --> 0:12:53.240 Boy, there's one of the great counter history or whatever 0:12:53.280 --> 0:12:56.600 you call that, of all time. If Kamala had won 0:12:57.760 --> 0:13:02.520 four years, does Iran get into Yes, Horan probably. 0:13:02.240 --> 0:13:03.800 Gets a new nuke and then what do they do 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:05.920 with it? Did they use it? Hey, let me let 0:13:05.960 --> 0:13:09.920 me dovetail off that real quickly. Why do they shoot 0:13:09.960 --> 0:13:14.560 at neighbors? They're sick, They would have used nukes, et cetera. Michael, 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:18.120 give me fifty six. This is back to Lenin to 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:22.960 Cyba again. She's the foreign minister from the UAE on 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.120 special report with Brett Bear last night. 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:28.200 Why diplomat diplomacy hasn't worked. They told us they didn't 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:30.679 have a nuclear enrichment program. Today we know they have 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:34.000 enough enriched uranium to make up to twelve bonds. They 0:13:34.000 --> 0:13:36.280 told us they didn't have a blistic missile's weapons program 0:13:36.280 --> 0:13:39.040 that could threaten anyone. They can now reach most capitals 0:13:39.040 --> 0:13:42.160 in Europe, including also the Gulf, which they've demonstrated they're 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:44.680 willing to do. Eighty nine percent of their targets have 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:46.640 been civilian infrastructure in my country. 0:13:47.000 --> 0:13:48.680 This has to stop again. 0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:50.640 I say, why am I not hearing this on any 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:54.560 mainstream news outlet? Oh, you're so right, only on Fox 0:13:57.320 --> 0:14:01.040 M and then Trump bashes Natole. It's here that sixty four. 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:05.240 I said twenty five years ago that NATO's a paper tiger, 0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:09.160 but more importantly, that we'll come to their rescue, but 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:10.560 they will never come to ours. 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:13.240 And I want you to remember that we said this. 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:15.719 It didn't come to our rescue. Now they all want 0:14:15.760 --> 0:14:20.160 to help when they're annihilated. The other side is annihilated. 0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:23.160 They said we'd love to send ships. Actually made a 0:14:23.200 --> 0:14:26.120 statement a couple of them that we want to get 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.440 involved when the war's over. No, it's supposed to get 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:33.440 involved with the wars beginning or even before it begins. 0:14:33.960 --> 0:14:36.040 I actually disagree with Trump's take on all of that. 0:14:36.280 --> 0:14:38.000 I mean is useless, but. 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:42.080 Europe is much useless. But they did come to our 0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:44.920 aid after nine to eleven. They helped a lot with 0:14:44.960 --> 0:14:47.640 a rack. They got involved in Afghanistan. 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:50.600 And it's just it's not a situation where you call 0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:54.400 them and say, hey, you heard we bombed Iran last night, 0:14:54.640 --> 0:14:56.960 can you be in the Gulf tomorrow? It just it 0:14:57.000 --> 0:14:58.400 doesn't really work like that. 0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.120 And then why it is I think appalling. Neil Ferguson 0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:03.600 was making this point the other day. He had a 0:15:03.680 --> 0:15:06.600 quote from Margaret Thatcher from way back in the day 0:15:07.120 --> 0:15:08.720 because she was getting some pressure. 0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:10.600 I don't remember what the campaign was. 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:14.960 But Reagan used their military basis for something that the 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:18.800 population didn't like in Britain, and Margaret Thatcher said, they're 0:15:18.800 --> 0:15:20.920 our best friend. If the United States wants to use 0:15:20.960 --> 0:15:24.280 our military bass, we let them. Well, Caro Starmer went 0:15:24.280 --> 0:15:27.160 the opposite direction. He didn't let us use the military basis, 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:31.280 and Neil Ferguson thought that was awful, and I think 0:15:31.320 --> 0:15:35.200 it's awful also, But yep, I still think it's ridiculous 0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:35.960 to turn down help. 0:15:36.000 --> 0:15:40.600 Now. Why well, right, yeah, the post war reality's got 0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.400 to be enforced. The more friends the better. Yeah, Trump 0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.200 is way too earsily easily butt hurt. But you know 0:15:46.360 --> 0:15:47.920 that's not exactly news. 0:15:49.080 --> 0:15:55.080 I think this thing is gonna explode more. I certainly, 0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:58.280 you know, maybe behind the scenes it's completely different, and 0:15:58.480 --> 0:16:01.080 none of us have any information on that. But unless 0:16:01.120 --> 0:16:03.360 it's very, very different behind the scenes, Ran sounds like 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:05.800 they have no interest in giving up, and Trump sounds 0:16:05.800 --> 0:16:07.840 like he's got every intention of Okay, if you're not 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:09.440 going to give up, we're going to take what we 0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:11.280 need to take to get where we need to get. 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:14.920 Yeah. I think a lot of us were really hoping 0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:19.360 that there were much more transactional, practical, forward looking forces 0:16:19.400 --> 0:16:22.800 within the IRGC that could be bargained with. They haven't 0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:26.880 come forward yet. It appears they are as hardcore as 0:16:27.120 --> 0:16:32.400 you know, as their reputation hardcore is lomist death cultists 0:16:32.640 --> 0:16:33.440 or those that. 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:37.960 Are are in charge. Somehow we killed a whole bunch 0:16:38.000 --> 0:16:40.120 of people, but they can't hardly communicate with each other 0:16:40.160 --> 0:16:42.960 and everything like that. Whatever the hardliners in charge and 0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:44.440 this next step, I mean, this is going to turn 0:16:44.480 --> 0:16:47.680 into a completely different looking war here, Like maybe by 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:50.480 this weekend, the deadline of the five day pause is 0:16:50.520 --> 0:16:53.000 Saturday morning, and all of. 0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:55.600 The Marines and the eighty second Airborne are going to 0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:58.600 be in place at some point on Friday tomorrow. 0:16:59.040 --> 0:17:01.280 Yeah, with the deadline Saturday morning, so at least that 0:17:02.280 --> 0:17:06.639 this could be a much different or to follow on 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:11.000 cable news and on Twitter within seventy two hours. 0:17:10.800 --> 0:17:12.800 I think you mean on the Armstrong and Getty show, 0:17:13.359 --> 0:17:16.959 I'm not working this weekend. You're working this weekend. Mom, Monday, 0:17:17.000 --> 0:17:20.359 come back Monday. I met much farm Strong and Getty. 0:17:21.720 --> 0:17:25.399 Tucker Carlson just tweeted out it's worth remembering that ground 0:17:25.480 --> 0:17:28.159 troops are often followed by tyranny in the country that 0:17:28.280 --> 0:17:33.240 sends them to those of you who live the whole 0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:38.200 every single day, were on the verge of you know whatever, 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:41.600 don't you get tired of it? I find it exhaust 0:17:41.640 --> 0:17:43.680 I don't even believe the stuff you say. I get 0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:47.080 exhausted just reading it. Don't you get exhausted being we're 0:17:47.200 --> 0:17:53.320 under so much threat every day from all the different things, Israel, pedophiles, Epstein, whatever. 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:55.639 I think he gives a lot of people a sense 0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:59.000 of purpose and like they're living They're living a life 0:17:59.080 --> 0:18:03.199 of importance because they're quote unquote in this fight on 0:18:03.240 --> 0:18:04.159 the internet. 0:18:04.080 --> 0:18:07.639 And all the dummies who aren't paying attention. Yeah, coming up, 0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:10.080 our tribute to Chuck Norris or something. 0:18:10.040 --> 0:18:13.800 Our musical tribute to Chuck Norris not to be missed 0:18:13.840 --> 0:18:18.480 in moments actually, But first, speaking of big personalities physically, 0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.680 a very different fellow, Bill Maher, we were talking about 0:18:21.680 --> 0:18:24.480 following the war on cable news, perhaps over the weekend 0:18:24.600 --> 0:18:26.199 or Twitter or wherever you'd like to follow it. He 0:18:26.200 --> 0:18:29.639 had a couple of thoughts about cable news and the 0:18:29.680 --> 0:18:31.119 super into politics culture. 0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:36.440 Less than one percent of the country is watching Fox News, CNN, 0:18:36.760 --> 0:18:39.280 and ms NOW combined. 0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:40.760 Combined. 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:44.879 A guy in TikTok pressure washing his driveway gets bigger ratings. 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:57.359 Seventy six percent of Americans watched less than one hour 0:18:57.840 --> 0:19:01.280 of any cable news in a month. You thought opera 0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:02.440 was getting its ass kick. 0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:09.160 That's stat was something. Yeah, it is. It's not as 0:19:09.200 --> 0:19:12.520 simple as therefore, it doesn't matter because people who are 0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:15.239 involved in the movers and shakers of the world, they 0:19:15.280 --> 0:19:18.120 are watching that stuff. I don't think that'll lack much 0:19:18.200 --> 0:19:20.680 walking points from that's an age thing. 0:19:20.760 --> 0:19:23.960 I think I would agree, like Trump watches the cable 0:19:24.080 --> 0:19:26.399 news channels because when he was younger, they were a 0:19:26.400 --> 0:19:28.760 big deal. But when that crowd is gone, the next 0:19:28.760 --> 0:19:30.680 crowd not going to have any interest in whatsoever. 0:19:31.200 --> 0:19:31.840 Little more mare. 0:19:32.480 --> 0:19:35.399 If you ask most Americans what their opinion of Tulsi 0:19:35.480 --> 0:19:38.000 Gabbard is, their answer is going to be, what's it? 0:19:38.119 --> 0:19:38.960 Tulsi Gabbard? 0:19:40.840 --> 0:19:45.040 And they're completely unaware that they're supposed to be boycotting Target. 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:48.000 Or Chick fil A. Here's the criteria. 0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:50.560 They use when deciding where to go for chicken? How's 0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:53.240 the chicken? And if they had to guess, they'd say 0:19:53.400 --> 0:20:00.720 ms now is a multiple sclerosis charity. And Fox Friends 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:07.360 is a children's cartoon show. Their lives don't revolve around 0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:10.840 having a hot take on every stupid thing. Katie Perry 0:20:10.880 --> 0:20:13.119 went to space and now she's the worst person on Earth. 0:20:13.960 --> 0:20:16.959 Pineapple doesn't belong on pizza. You know what you're arguing 0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:19.800 about these things? Here's the hottest take of all? Who 0:20:19.880 --> 0:20:20.480 gives it? 0:20:25.160 --> 0:20:26.679 Oh? Bill brilliant as always? 0:20:26.840 --> 0:20:28.760 Well, have you seen the you know, the in the 0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:30.760 in the Basement show whatever he calls that where he 0:20:30.760 --> 0:20:32.960 interviews people. Have you seen the one with John Cougar Mellencamp? 0:20:33.359 --> 0:20:37.400 Oh? No, it's really good. I'll tell a good yeah, yeah, 0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:41.919 interesting guy. Anyway, both of them a couple of stories 0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:44.080 for you real quickly. Then we'll pay off the Chuck 0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:47.280 Norris The Loving Musical Tribute to Chuck Norris. I'm not 0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:49.879 going to get into the details of this. You can 0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:52.359 find them yourself if you're super into it. But I'm 0:20:52.560 --> 0:21:00.560 so amused they're fighting over affordable housing in Naple Valley, 0:21:01.359 --> 0:21:04.840 like right next door to the world's fanciest restaurant, the 0:21:04.880 --> 0:21:10.160 French Laundry, where Gavin Newsom likes to enjoy a late 0:21:10.400 --> 0:21:13.800 evening dinner. I believe, am I correct on that time, 0:21:13.840 --> 0:21:16.640 mister Governor sir in the middle of COVID when everybody 0:21:16.680 --> 0:21:21.040 else is locked down by his oppressive and utterly unscientific rules. 0:21:21.720 --> 0:21:27.840 Anyway, I actually have a calendar alert set for next 0:21:27.920 --> 0:21:30.879 I'm not going to say when, for when they open 0:21:30.960 --> 0:21:34.920 up the next batch of reservations for the French Laundry, 0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:37.600 to see if I can get in. I think I 0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:40.880 ate there once, but I was so hammered I don't 0:21:40.920 --> 0:21:44.480 remember it. I'm pretty sure I ate there because I 0:21:44.520 --> 0:21:46.840 remember an NFL quarterback being there and we met in 0:21:46.840 --> 0:21:49.399 the bathroom, but by accident. 0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:54.800 I'm not like on purpose, bloom, What the hell is 0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:58.080 going on? Three times on the stall? How does that work? Huh? 0:21:58.119 --> 0:22:00.879 Anyway back to the French laundry in those rich arguing 0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:01.400 about things. 0:22:01.640 --> 0:22:04.840 Oh yeah, so, and the head chef, the guy who 0:22:04.880 --> 0:22:07.320 runs it is coming to city council meetings and all, 0:22:07.400 --> 0:22:14.919 and it's absolutely hilarious. They don't want affordable, cheap, like 0:22:15.200 --> 0:22:19.359
