Speaker 1: Live live the from Studio C. See.

6
00:00:38,080 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 3: We are in a dimly lit room, deep within the

7
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: bowels of the Armstrong and you're getting communications compound surrounded

8
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:47,600
Speaker 3: by alligators. We got that from that whole alligator Alfa draz.

9
00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:49,879
Speaker 3: We designed out radios would be a nice touch, so.

10
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 4: We got some focusingly inexpensive when you buy them in bulk.

11
00:00:53,760 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 5: And today we're the tutelage of our general manager. Good times, Okay,

12
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 5: good times, our general manager?

13
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,919
Speaker 1: What does that not? The wellove it seventies hit sitcom

14
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: and or anything. It's funny.

15
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,479
Speaker 4: As I was preparing for the show, I came across

16
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:18,600
Speaker 4: a number of different stories, ideas, issues that all were

17
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 4: connected by the sinew of the fact that good times, affluence,

18
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 4: comfort lead to debauchery, self indulgence, laziness, softness in general.

19
00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 4: And I was thinking, it's as inevitable as a sine wave.

20
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about me. I wasn't good at math.

21
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 5: But it's as inevitable as the sunrise and the sunset as.

22
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: Inhaling and exhiling.

23
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 5: I don't know if anything can be done about it

24
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 5: except around the margins. When you have affluence in good times,

25
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 5: you lose your edge as a society, as a person.

26
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 5: Often not debauchery. Yeah, it's all about the debauchery.

27
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: Hold on it. I'm enjoy the debauchery. I don't know

28
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 1: if you can hear this or not. What is that?

29
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:07,800
Speaker 5: Huh?

30
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: What is that?

31
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,200
Speaker 5: I'm dropping my Alka Seltzer plus cold medicine into the

32
00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 5: water and letting it fizz so that I can drink

33
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 5: it during the show. See the only cold medicine I

34
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,120
Speaker 5: feel like, does anything? Of course, it might be Placebia.

35
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 5: I have no idea of it. Hopefully not come out

36
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 5: of hue. It is a weird color. It doesn't look

37
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,680
Speaker 5: like something you should drink. Surprisingly, have not come up

38
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 5: with better cold medicine. It must be really hard because

39
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 5: there would be a tremendous amount of money in it.

40
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,240
Speaker 5: Everybody gets a couple of colds per year. The profit

41
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 5: would be just insane. But they really haven't moved the

42
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 5: mark much on cold medicine as far as I can

43
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,359
Speaker 5: tell in my entire life, and one of the main

44
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,639
Speaker 5: cold medicines that have existed for the past quite a

45
00:02:46,639 --> 00:02:49,720
Speaker 5: few years. Was announced by the FDA what two years ago.

46
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 5: It doesn't do anything. Not only is it go off

47
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 5: and in, not only is it not very effective, it

48
00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 5: does nothing. And every cold medicine on the shelf stillfenerin

49
00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 5: or whatever it is. Uh, however, you say that every

50
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 5: single Okay, this one right here, al ca Celtzi cold

51
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 5: medicine has a couple of things in it that must

52
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 5: actually do something. Then the fenlephron, which does nothing, every

53
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 5: cold medicine still has.

54
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,480
Speaker 1: So why do they still put that in there if

55
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,360
Speaker 1: it was announced that it doesn't do anything.

56
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, the name of that one is similar to something

57
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 5: that does do something, and I can never remember which

58
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:27,520
Speaker 5: is which.

59
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: Now.

60
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 4: I mean, you've got epinephrine, and that's good stuff. Pseudo epinephrine, sure,

61
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:36,680
Speaker 4: oh absolutely, pseudo fat Yeah, decongested, but you know, to me,

62
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 4: it's a little tilan all, little ibuprofen whatever, and the

63
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 4: grin Barrett, that's how you deal with a cold.

64
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: Well, most of this stuff almost always has a tileanol

65
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 1: in it, So I think that's the only thing you're

66
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 1: getting out of it.

67
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 4: I got a question, Maybe you're just tarten up your

68
00:03:52,760 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 4: tile andol with a bunch of stuff that doesn't do anything.

69
00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 4: Almost certainly, I don't know that that's true. I just

70
00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: want if I had to bet, I would bet you're slutty,

71
00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,440
Speaker 4: slutty tile and all. I got a question. So, if

72
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 4: you're a news junkie, you almost certainly have seen the

73
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 4: video of us blowing the Jesus out of the eleven

74
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 4: drug people in the boat off a coast of Venezuela cartel.

75
00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 5: Terrorists. That's right, terrorists. Okay, that's interesting that you say that. Well,

76
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 5: I'm quoting the administration, right. So the term narco terrorist

77
00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 5: has become a thing now, so if you bring a

78
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 5: lot of drugs into the country, you're considered it a

79
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:31,320
Speaker 5: narco terrorist.

80
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,360
Speaker 1: And terrorists, in our.

81
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:35,800
Speaker 5: Minds, sounds like people that were allowed to kill wherever

82
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 5: the hell they are, because we've been killing terrorists for

83
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,800
Speaker 5: a long long time. I did see some pushback online.

84
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,000
Speaker 5: There's always pushback online about everything, of what right do

85
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,200
Speaker 5: we have to kill kill drug smugglers? It's not a

86
00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 5: capital offence in the United States. If you get caught

87
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 5: as a major drug dealer, we don't execute you. So

88
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:57,919
Speaker 5: how are we executing people out in a boat in

89
00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 5: the ocean. Do you know the answer to that? I'm

90
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 5: not worried about this. I just thought it was an

91
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,720
Speaker 5: interesting question. I would agree completely. And that is the

92
00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 5: question that leapt to my mind as well. Can you

93
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:12,680
Speaker 5: kill somebody pre arrest for something? You can't kill them

94
00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 5: after you've arrested them for well? And then am I

95
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 5: right that this narco terrorist thing is a way to

96
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 5: make it sound like something that we're all in favor

97
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 5: of killing. Sure, it's spin.

98
00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the term terrorist in general is has

99
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,599
Speaker 4: been rendered useless through overuse. Plus, this is not that

100
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 4: useful term honestly doesn't tell you enough. I think this

101
00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:40,960
Speaker 4: is a really interesting and intriguing question. You have a

102
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 4: criminal enterprise that is bent in its very purposes in

103
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 4: doing evil. They are murderous, they are selling death, They

104
00:05:54,680 --> 00:06:01,440
Speaker 4: have zero redeeming qualities, and their activities will inevitably lead

105
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 4: to many, many deaths.

106
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 5: So how does that How does that differ from a

107
00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 5: military force and its effects? I realized it's.

108
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 4: It's purpose, it's reason for being why they get up

109
00:06:16,839 --> 00:06:20,240
Speaker 4: in the morning, is different, but in its effect, it's

110
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 4: remarkably similar to a military attack.

111
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 5: It's just a little more indirect. So well, then to

112
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,200
Speaker 5: them now and again to keep them away from your shores.

113
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,640
Speaker 5: I've got a great deal of sympathy for the strategy,

114
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 5: but I can't really explain why it's Okay, Well, if

115
00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 5: you're gonna make that argument, then would couldn't you make

116
00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 5: that argument for every Uh? You know, a group of

117
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 5: six dudes that make meth in a trailer somewhere and

118
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 5: put it out on the streets because it's gonna kill

119
00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 5: people or maybe whatever drug something? Yeah, Now, I know

120
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,359
Speaker 5: that if you directly can link a person to the

121
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 5: pill that killed somebody, you can charge them with murder

122
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 5: and should Uh, But you don't just preemptively assume they're

123
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 5: a bunch of murderers and and and then kill them

124
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 5: before you arrest them.

125
00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 4: Right this, by the way, is not some sort of

126
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 4: editorial against it. We're just flipping the thing over and

127
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 4: trying to figure out what it is. Oh yeah, how

128
00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 4: is I'm worried about today?

129
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 5: US taking out drug lords in Venezuela, and whether or

130
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,320
Speaker 5: not it's legal is not on my list.

131
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 4: Right Well, yeah, drug lords lords would be a different case.

132
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:30,360
Speaker 1: Though.

133
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 4: These are drug lackeys, These are just runners. These are

134
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 4: hourly employees, so which makes it more work. It's a

135
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:43,040
Speaker 4: good point. I'm not sure about the legalities, but grammar wise,

136
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 4: you're absolutely correct. So now obviously they're outside the US

137
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 4: is supposed to inside the US.

138
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:52,320
Speaker 1: Uh. And I'm not an expert on this.

139
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 5: But if you had a guy a guy walking down

140
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 5: the street and you threw undercover operations, you know, wearing

141
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 5: a wire or whatever, you knew with certainty he was

142
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 5: selling fentanyl to.

143
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:12,360
Speaker 4: I was gonna say teenagers, but let's not prejudice it.

144
00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 4: He's selling fentanyl. Fentanyl lays drugs to young people in America.

145
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 4: Can I as the government gun him down in the

146
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 4: street because he is delivering fentanyl to the homeland homeland

147
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,160
Speaker 4: or at.

148
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: Least the people as the people in the boat differ

149
00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 1: from that.

150
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know, delibered talking about we do it

151
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 5: seven or eight times and have an incredibly quick decline

152
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 5: in the number of those boats bringing fentanyl into the country.

153
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: I think that's the goal.

154
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 5: I think the goal is as Marco Rubio said, I

155
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 5: heard it the smile the lawyers argue about it. Yeah,

156
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:53,560
Speaker 5: I heard Marco Rubio say it on the news. The

157
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,560
Speaker 5: days of just with impunity, loading up a boat full

158
00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,600
Speaker 5: of drugs and taking them. The United States are over,

159
00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 5: Those days are over. Well, that's the message we're trying

160
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 5: to send. That will greatly curb the drug traffic as

161
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 5: they realize, not a lot of people are going to

162
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 5: take the job if you're just rolling up there in

163
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 5: the ocean, beautiful day, not a cloud pow.

164
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:15,079
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah.

165
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 5: You know.

166
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 4: One final thought on this, And if I were a

167
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,320
Speaker 4: more ambitious fellow, I would have written some sort of

168
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 4: book about this that people would have ignored propatly. But

169
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,120
Speaker 4: and I used this phrase for the first time, ages

170
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 4: and ages ago, and it had to do that's funny.

171
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 4: I remember it was something Hillary Clinton was pitching. I

172
00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 4: don't remember specifics of it, but it's the question of

173
00:09:36,360 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 4: necessity versus nicety. And this goes back to the whole

174
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 4: good times create soft people. Soft people create bad times.

175
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 4: Bad times create tough people. Tough people create good times.

176
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 4: You know, circle that I think is impossible.

177
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: That's right. Our general manager was good times. That's right.

178
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,319
Speaker 1: Ain't we lucky? We got them good times? Anyway?

179
00:09:57,640 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 4: Eh So we as a got to the point and

180
00:10:02,640 --> 00:10:06,960
Speaker 4: the woke thing and just the you know, the old

181
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 4: school lefty thing when it was really really in charge,

182
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 4: emptying out the prisons in California, for instance.

183
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: California is a great example of it.

184
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 4: The policies of California as a state right now, or

185
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 4: a great example of You are so comfortable and affluent,

186
00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 4: you go after that final percent and a half of

187
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 4: just fairness and goodness and gentleness and equity and whatever,

188
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,240
Speaker 4: and blah blah blah, and you completely forget the stuff

189
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 4: you're supposed to do. You got criminals running wild in

190
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,720
Speaker 4: the streets, you got people shooting up and crapping in

191
00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,319
Speaker 4: parks in front of children.

192
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: You are so obsessed with.

193
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 4: Nicety, you completely forget about necessity.

194
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 6: Ah.

195
00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,000
Speaker 4: And I don't have an answer on this. I'm noodling

196
00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 4: it through. And I find it really interesting.

197
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 5: Is that snuffing of that boat full presuming their intelligence

198
00:10:58,880 --> 00:10:59,559
Speaker 5: was excellent.

199
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: There's always a chance of getting it wrong too right.

200
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:06,119
Speaker 4: It was guys going out tarp and fishing, but presuming

201
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,280
Speaker 4: that their their intelligence was as excellent as they say.

202
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,840
Speaker 5: That feels a little bit like a return to let's

203
00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,199
Speaker 5: deal with necessity.

204
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 1: That's an interesting one.

205
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,000
Speaker 5: We'll talk more about that later. And if you haven't

206
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 5: seen the video, it is. Well, it's about what you'd expect. Well,

207
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 5: we'll have no time to talk about it later. We've

208
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 5: got to talk about the Epstein file release, the controversy

209
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 5: and the hearings, and we need this, like God, we

210
00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:35,280
Speaker 5: need to start the show officially. We got a fun

211
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,840
Speaker 5: little clip. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty on this.

212
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:41,679
Speaker 5: It is Hey, my dad's birthday Wednesday, September third of

213
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,200
Speaker 5: the year, twenty twenty five. He's eighty eight years old.

214
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 5: We are armstrong in getting we approve of this program.

215
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:48,720
Speaker 5: Happy birthday, Jacks.

216
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 1: Dad. Haven't seen you in ages. Hope you're well. God

217
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 1: bless you.

218
00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,880
Speaker 4: All Right, let's begin before the FCC drones us from

219
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:54,959
Speaker 4: the sky for starting late.

220
00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,720
Speaker 1: Is that here we go? Oh yeah, now under Trump,

221
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: here we go. At Mark, we had.

222
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 2: Met up because I was going to sell him my sneakers.

223
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: He just wanted to sniff my feet and I didn't

224
00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 2: feel comfortable with that. I mean, you could have my

225
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: sneakers all you want. I mean, I don't care. I'm

226
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,000
Speaker 2: not wearing them. You know, they're just stinky old sneakers.

227
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 2: But people like weird things. And I met him down

228
00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,160
Speaker 2: in the parking garage, he did a three point turn

229
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 2: and actually hit me with a car ran me over.

230
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,680
Speaker 2: I've met a lot of people who have foot fetishes.

231
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,760
Speaker 2: Nobody has ever done anything to this caliber. Mary.

232
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 5: There's a lot there, and we don't get her, so,

233
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 5: you know, I thought there was plenty there.

234
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,600
Speaker 1: And then the whole running are over thing.

235
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 5: We don't have time to break it down now, we

236
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,040
Speaker 5: don't have to play that again later and point by

237
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,920
Speaker 5: point break down the whole guy says he wants to

238
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,720
Speaker 5: buy your sneakers online, you meet him in a parking garage.

239
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 4: Not sure that's the best idea. And I'm sorry my

240
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 4: headphone s glitched out, Michael. Did she say she was

241
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 4: or was not comfortable with that hole?

242
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,240
Speaker 1: Rain? She wasn't.

243
00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 5: I was not. Ah, we'll get to that story later.

244
00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: In a hole?

245
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 4: Where are you going, Jenny? I got a guy sniffing

246
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 4: my feet in a parking garage? Oh my god, Oh

247
00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:09,960
Speaker 4: my god.

248
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 5: How about that parade that China put on that was

249
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 5: one of the biggest military parades, maybe the biggest military

250
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,880
Speaker 5: parade in world history. As a little scary, and we

251
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 5: got that a whole bunch of other stuff to talk

252
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 5: about today. I hope you can stay here.

253
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:29,839
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, I is.

254
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,679
Speaker 5: Not going to take over the world and force all

255
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,120
Speaker 5: of us out of our jobs, at least as long

256
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:38,480
Speaker 5: as I can type into a computer the whole nine yards.

257
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,839
Speaker 1: And if I accidentally write mine yards, it.

258
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,800
Speaker 5: Just thinks that's what I want because it's completely unfamiliar

259
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 5: with the phrase. So until they can fix all that,

260
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 5: or if I write the word, if I write this

261
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 5: happened either day, happy birthday, and it was birth bu

262
00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 5: day or something like that, and.

263
00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,679
Speaker 1: It can't figure out what I want.

264
00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 4: It's not going to take over the world yet, right, Yeah,

265
00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 4: you know, it's funny, the ebb and flow of the

266
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:10,959
Speaker 4: it's going to take everybody's jobs by the end of

267
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 4: the year. Oh no, it's not not even close. It'll

268
00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 4: be fine. Yeah, nope, nope, nope, nope. Entire restructuring of

269
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,160
Speaker 4: the economy, what's that. No, everything will be fine. I mean,

270
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:19,760
Speaker 4: back and forth.

271
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,440
Speaker 1: It's just right. Oh my god, it's nuts.

272
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 4: But yeah, I'm I'm less concerned than I was six

273
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 4: months ago that there will be massive changes to the

274
00:14:29,200 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 4: workforce and therefore society, therefore our politics, therefore everything in

275
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 4: the short term.

276
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:36,000
Speaker 1: But who knows.

277
00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't claim to. I think the timing is

278
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:39,800
Speaker 5: different than I thought it might be. I think it

279
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 5: will happen, but it might be twenty five years from

280
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,000
Speaker 5: now instead of next June.

281
00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 4: I wonder interesting piece that came across about how China

282
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 4: is approaching the whole AI thing differently. They are not

283
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 4: going hardcore at the generalized artificial intelligence is that the

284
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 4: term people use. We're the things learned to think for them.

285
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,920
Speaker 4: Else they're just like really concentrating on applications of what

286
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 4: we have right now.

287
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 5: You can talk about that more later. Quick rundown of

288
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 5: the headlines. Katie is off today.

289
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 4: And we'll love to have her back as soon as

290
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 4: possible as she deals with and I don't I think

291
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 4: we're cool. I always want to protect her privacy, but

292
00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,920
Speaker 4: she's been so open about the fertility thing. And I

293
00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:23,080
Speaker 4: will just tell you this. I feel like a reasonably

294
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 4: well informed guy. But I did not have a single

295
00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 4: clue as to the difficulty and complexity of the whole

296
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:31,360
Speaker 4: IVF thing.

297
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:32,160
Speaker 1: No, it's funny.

298
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 5: It was such a political football there for a while

299
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 5: with JD Vance and something he said or whatever during

300
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:43,160
Speaker 5: the presidential campaign. No, I had no idea IVF is

301
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:49,160
Speaker 5: so complicated and longed and not always pleasant. I didn't

302
00:15:49,200 --> 00:15:49,680
Speaker 5: know any.

303
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:50,240
Speaker 1: Of the stuff.

304
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, in fact, damn near always unpleasant. But you know

305
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 4: so quickly look at headlines. We mentioned the US military

306
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 4: struck of Venezuela and drug vessel in the South Caribbean, Kirkblowie.

307
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 4: We'll talk about that more to come, I'm sure, especially

308
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:09,120
Speaker 4: if it keeps happening. Let's see. You know what, I

309
00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 4: don't have the bandwidth for third world disasters in these

310
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 4: god forsaken as whole countries. I'm not happy it happened

311
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 4: Landslide and darfour, but I just don't have the bandwidth.

312
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:27,160
Speaker 5: How about this one, on which I don't quite understand.

313
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,680
Speaker 5: Google avoided harshest penalties and landmark search monopoly ruling.

314
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,640
Speaker 4: What happened there? Candid course case been dragging on for

315
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 4: a court case. I've been dragging on forever about Google's

316
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 4: relationship with Apple and it buying its way to being

317
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 4: the default search engine. And the net result is Google

318
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 4: has to share a whole bunch of their info that

319
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:54,480
Speaker 4: they've gathered over the years with other companies, which is interesting.

320
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a slap on the wrist.

321
00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 4: Is the wrong term for a civil settlement like this,

322
00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,480
Speaker 4: or a civil judge like this, but it was a

323
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 4: fraction of the worst case scenario. Jony Ernsteiowa not going

324
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 4: to run again at the end of her turn, probably

325
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,280
Speaker 4: because it's useless being in Congress at this point, or

326
00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:17,520
Speaker 4: the Senate fat dopey communist Jerry Nadler also going to retire,

327
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 4: go away. Let's see another headline. We talked about this yesterday.

328
00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:24,320
Speaker 4: Seventy percent of Americans say it's no longer true that

329
00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 4: if you work hard you'll get ahead.

330
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 5: And here's the important thing. Then one point three billion

331
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 5: dollar powerball drawing tonight. Wait a minute, I have a

332
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:34,439
Speaker 5: new plan. Armstrong and getty.

333
00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:39,560
Speaker 7: A massive show of force by China America's top adversaries

334
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,600
Speaker 7: attending a military parade in Beijing, sending a strong message

335
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:48,320
Speaker 7: that there's an alternative world order now competing with US domination.

336
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 6: Chinese President Jean Shinping is hosting world leaders, including russia

337
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,760
Speaker 6: Is Vadimir Putin and North Korea's Kim Jong un. Kim

338
00:17:56,840 --> 00:18:00,119
Speaker 6: arrived on a train so heavily planted with armor, it

339
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 6: reportedly moves on average just thirty seven miles an hour.

340
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 5: So the train is so heavy, so that it can

341
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:11,919
Speaker 5: withstand an explosion or attack of any kind, that it

342
00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 5: can barely move, kind of like the leader himself.

343
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 1: Right, so heavy he can barely move. Anybody attacked the

344
00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:22,159
Speaker 1: leader of North Korea. I don't know.

345
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 5: I think you get pretty paranoid when you're a dictator

346
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:26,120
Speaker 5: and you're surrounded by people all the time. It probably

347
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 5: would like to kill you. Yeah, final stray note. I

348
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 5: like the way David Panel what's his name?

349
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:34,240
Speaker 1: Is that his name?

350
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 4: Ian Panel? I like the way he says adversary. Yeah, adversary, well,

351
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 4: because they're adverse to you. I like that better than

352
00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,719
Speaker 4: the American adversary. I'm becoming a brit bit by bit.

353
00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 5: Okay, President g there at the biggest parade the world

354
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:52,240
Speaker 5: has ever seen, biggest military parade flanked by leaders from

355
00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:58,080
Speaker 5: twenty six countries. Yes, that's quite a few people that think,

356
00:18:58,119 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 5: you know, we better be kind of in the whole

357
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 5: sphere of China is they're a pretty big power. And

358
00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 5: most importantly it was President she Vladimir Putin.

359
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:09,960
Speaker 1: And then Kim Jung un.

360
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 5: I don't know why that seems so significant to people,

361
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,439
Speaker 5: but apparently it is because he doesn't usually go to

362
00:19:15,480 --> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 5: these sorts of things. Trump in the midst of the

363
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,480
Speaker 5: whole parade, which we'll tell you more about a little

364
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:25,320
Speaker 5: bit truthed out a wish to President she and the

365
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,919
Speaker 5: Chinese people have a great and lasting day of celebration,

366
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 5: before adding, please give my warmest regards to Vladimir Putin

367
00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 5: and Kim Jung Un as you conspire against the United

368
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,640
Speaker 5: States of America.

369
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 1: Wow. That's it. It got a little sarcastic at the end. Wow.

370
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,080
Speaker 5: The military display was just absolutely if you haven't seen

371
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 5: the videos, it's just it's unbelievable all the stuff that

372
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 5: was there. She's speech. First of all, their rewriting history.

373
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 5: Putin's been doing this for a long time. She and

374
00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 5: Putin together now are rear writing the end of World

375
00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 5: War two, or what World War two was, and their

376
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 5: version which a lot of the people will only hear

377
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 5: or be taught, World War two was Russia and China

378
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 5: getting together to defeat Japan. That was what World War

379
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 5: two was. And aren't they fantastic for having defeated Japan?

380
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:22,359
Speaker 5: China and Russia. That's funny, that's not the way I

381
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,919
Speaker 5: remember it. She's speech about that was followed by a

382
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 5: display of the expanding military arsenal under his command, including

383
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 5: new hypersonic nuclear capable missiles that we don't have and

384
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 5: unmanned combat platforms that strengthened China's abilities to deter the

385
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,560
Speaker 5: United States to project power. They displayed for the first

386
00:20:42,640 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 5: time their nuclear triad with the ability to attack any

387
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:51,919
Speaker 5: place in the world with nuclear weapons from sea, land,

388
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 5: or air, which they had never displayed before. And if

389
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,040
Speaker 5: you mean you want to do something scary, I did

390
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 5: just this the other day. I did a Google search

391
00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,840
Speaker 5: on hypersonic weapons on like Washington Post.

392
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:03,480
Speaker 1: Or New York Times.

393
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 5: Start reading the articles about where we are versus Russia

394
00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,080
Speaker 5: and China. It's freaking frightening.

395
00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I hate the idea of us actually getting into

396
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 4: a kinetic war at this point, and not that you know,

397
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,880
Speaker 4: we'd be a pushover or anything like that, but I

398
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 4: think we are.

399
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: You know, the old.

400
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,359
Speaker 4: Boxer who's been retired from fighting for a while and

401
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 4: still thinks, you know, I could whoop these youngsters, but

402
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 4: hasn't been tested in a big way. Certainly, the capabilities

403
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,479
Speaker 4: of our special forces and you know, the things we

404
00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 4: are involved in right now, they're the elite, they're the

405
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 4: best in the world.

406
00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 1: Best. It's ever been. But in terms of mass, mass.

407
00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 4: Forces weaponry, I'm not sure we're as well equipped as

408
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 4: we feel like we have.

409
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 1: Well, I wonder I've been wondering this for quite a while.

410
00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 5: If we get attacked by someone, is the story is,

411
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,040
Speaker 5: oh my god, we're attacked.

412
00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:00,960
Speaker 1: What do we all want ally together to do?

413
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,400
Speaker 5: Or is the story whoever's president caused it? And half

414
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 5: the country is not on board with whatever the response is,

415
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,640
Speaker 5: and it just becomes a domestic political issue, like.

416
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 4: And or starts wearing the T shirts of the country

417
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,240
Speaker 4: that attacked us in a show of how they hate

418
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:16,960
Speaker 4: the current guy.

419
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: Right.

420
00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,080
Speaker 5: I wonder that Mark Alprin, writing in his newsletter today,

421
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,720
Speaker 5: if a charismatic American president can unite the nation in

422
00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 5: service of unmatchable United States economic might and global cultural influence,

423
00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:33,160
Speaker 5: Uncle Sam wins otherwise dot dot.

424
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,000
Speaker 1: Dot Yeah, I would agree.

425
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, And honestly, I don't think Trump's the guy to

426
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:44,959
Speaker 4: do it. I love a lot of what he's doing domestically, but.

427
00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:44,640
Speaker 5: But neither is going to be Gavin Newsom or Kamala

428
00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 5: Harris or whoever follows. That's a hell of a comparison,

429
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 5: But that's.

430
00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 1: Where we are.

431
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,439
Speaker 5: That's who We're going to elect someone like Jady Vance,

432
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 5: j D Maybe Vance.

433
00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:56,200
Speaker 1: Maybe.

434
00:22:56,560 --> 00:23:00,520
Speaker 5: Anyway, the parade was frightening on every damned level, and

435
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:06,320
Speaker 5: things are changing quickly. The world order is changing, maybe

436
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 5: has changed. I was happy to hear on NPR today

437
00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 5: they had former ambassador to China. I think I don't

438
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:13,879
Speaker 5: remember what the guy's name was, but he said on

439
00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:19,480
Speaker 5: NPR the United States cannot allow China to dominate that

440
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 5: part of the world. He just stated that on NPR,

441
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:25,520
Speaker 5: which I'm happy to hear. I don't know if we

442
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,160
Speaker 5: can stop it from happening, but I'm glad that even

443
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,920
Speaker 5: on super progressive NPR, that was the take.

444
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:34,520
Speaker 1: That is interesting.

445
00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 4: So a quick rundown of what you saw if you

446
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 4: were in Beijing for the big parade. They trotted out

447
00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 4: ten thousand troops, which is plenty. Beijing as the world's

448
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 4: largest active army estimated at about two million personnel. Wow,

449
00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 4: not battlefield tested, so who knows. Formations in the parade

450
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 4: included Chinese China's cyber Space Force and arrow Space Force,

451
00:23:59,119 --> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 4: both brand new branches. They have a cyber Space Force, yes,

452
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:09,960
Speaker 4: Cyberspace Force and Aerospace Force computers in space branches of

453
00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 4: the military.

454
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 1: China.

455
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,360
Speaker 4: That couple of phrases could loom large in a few

456
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 4: years anyway, China, leader in hypersonic missile technology, showed off

457
00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:23,880
Speaker 4: its new arrivals from its ying G series jack, which

458
00:24:23,920 --> 00:24:27,480
Speaker 4: State me he described as a strategic hammer for defending

459
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:28,959
Speaker 4: China's maritime interests.

460
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: I don't want to be condescending, nor be or not.

461
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: I'll hit you with my strategic hammer, nor the opposite,

462
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:39,399
Speaker 1: whatever that would be.

463
00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:42,640
Speaker 5: About hypersonic missiles, we've thrown around that term and maybe

464
00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,160
Speaker 5: all of you don't know what those are, but those

465
00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:47,199
Speaker 5: are the missiles that can fly so fast and so

466
00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:52,240
Speaker 5: low that are super fantastic. Modern radar equipment can't pick

467
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 5: them up. Yeah, can't pick them up. They could send

468
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 5: a missile around the world so fast, so low, it

469
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 5: could drop a nuke on loss A Angels before we

470
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,719
Speaker 5: even know that a missile has been sent. So they

471
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:08,280
Speaker 5: mentioned that the YJ nineteen missile features air inlets that

472
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:10,160
Speaker 5: you can see under the nose cone that appear very

473
00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 5: similar to those of Russian hypersonic cruise missiles powered by

474
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:17,440
Speaker 5: air breathing jet engines known as a scram jet. Hypersonic

475
00:25:17,480 --> 00:25:20,120
Speaker 5: weapons can travel at extreme speeds to better evade most

476
00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 5: air defenses.

477
00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: To your point, it's an improvement.

478
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,000
Speaker 4: In the design blah blah blah blah, which delivers a

479
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 4: hypersonic glide vehicle, a projectile that is propelled to with

480
00:25:29,480 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 4: a high altitude before streaking down toward its target, maneuvering

481
00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 4: to make its path less predictable. You had your D

482
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:43,199
Speaker 4: five FC intercontinental ballistic missiles. It can strike anywhere in

483
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:47,720
Speaker 4: the world. Aerial drones were on display. Now these are

484
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 4: the big drones, like our reaper and predator drones. I

485
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:55,000
Speaker 4: think those are the right names are they're unmanned fighter jets. Essentially,

486
00:25:55,720 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 4: they had a bunch of those of various sorts, jet fighters, bombers, helicopters,

487
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 4: a carrier based fighters, anti drone. Air defense systems were

488
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 4: trotted by the appear to be laser beams, new high

489
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:17,960
Speaker 4: power laser and microwave weapons designed intercept targets such as

490
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 4: drones and cruise missiles. You know, it's interesting, pretty Star

491
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 4: Wars looking too. It's pretty inter cool looking.

492
00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 5: It's pretty interesting to me that we had this debate

493
00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:29,520
Speaker 5: what a couple of months ago when Trump had that

494
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,080
Speaker 5: military parade, and whether or not that was appropriate or

495
00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 5: not war mongering in this or that our number one

496
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:42,000
Speaker 5: adversary or adversary on planet Earth just had a giant

497
00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:44,959
Speaker 5: military play parade to show us what they've got. Why

498
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,640
Speaker 5: wouldn't we show them what we've got?

499
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 4: Well, and the idiotic left the argument would be, well,

500
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 4: we want to be different from them.

501
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,119
Speaker 1: That's not an argument. Shut up.

502
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: I also think that in the real world, not the

503
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:08,000
Speaker 4: Ivory Tower of academia, which is so sick and perverse

504
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 4: and ought to be blotted from the planet, and not

505
00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 4: in the lefty media, which is scarcely better. In the

506
00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:19,119
Speaker 4: real world, when normal people look at their team and

507
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:22,280
Speaker 4: how cool the team is, and how well equipped it is,

508
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:26,760
Speaker 4: and how our taxes have been spent for stuff other

509
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,960
Speaker 4: than waste and crap, that makes you happy, makes you

510
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 4: feel good, makes you want to say, look at our team.

511
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:35,080
Speaker 1: Hell yeah.

512
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,760
Speaker 4: As the NFL seasons about to kick off, I'm in

513
00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 4: favor of it again. We've lapped so far into this

514
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 4: for like academic professorial seeking of being the most.

515
00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:48,919
Speaker 1: Enlightened people we can possibly be.

516
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,479
Speaker 5: The big tough guy who does not give a single

517
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 5: f about being enlightened is gonna kick down our door

518
00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 5: and take all our stuff and laugh as we but

519
00:27:57,960 --> 00:28:03,960
Speaker 5: we blubber Geopolitically speaking, this is not a game for

520
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,600
Speaker 5: college professors. It's a game for big, tough, well trained

521
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:13,679
Speaker 5: guys with great gear. You saying shut up, says me.

522
00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:17,240
Speaker 5: You saying shut up, that's not an argument, reminded me.

523
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 5: I was watching a Jerry Seinfeld, a new one the

524
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,879
Speaker 5: other night, and he said, people.

525
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:31,680
Speaker 1: Who say it is what it is, why are you alive? Yeah?

526
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,480
Speaker 5: I happen to disagree with him on that point. I do, dude,

527
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,880
Speaker 5: I kind of like the phrase. But oh yeah, well

528
00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 5: it's it's an ancient sentiment. It means the same thing

529
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:44,440
Speaker 5: as amen essentially, so be it. I must accept it anyway.

530
00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 4: More interestingly to me anyway, about Jerry Seinfeld, I guess

531
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,440
Speaker 4: he got in quote unquote the Internet trouble for about

532
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 4: a cup of coffee. Internet trouble, oh for some you

533
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 4: know bit he did, and some columnists. I wish I

534
00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:02,920
Speaker 4: had the name, because they deserve whatever slander I can generate.

535
00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 1: I think it was a New York Times guy.

536
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 4: Somebody it was a fairly big name, said, you know,

537
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,320
Speaker 4: Jerry Seinfeld. I don't even find him funny. Oh goodness,

538
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 4: I don't know Okay, all right, yeah, okay, Jerry Seinfeldt

539
00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:19,720
Speaker 4: isn't funny. The Beatles didn't write any good songs. Whatever,

540
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 4: shut up, you shut up to.

541
00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:27,080
Speaker 1: Why are you alive? Okay, we got Joe's mailbag. Next.

542
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:36,800
Speaker 5: Hey, there's a new video game out called Take Us North,

543
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 5: in which you let players players help migrants cross the border.

544
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:46,720
Speaker 5: Oh boy, why does everybody go out of their way

545
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,400
Speaker 5: to poke other people and create a controversy and whatever?

546
00:29:51,120 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 5: Here's your freedom loving quote of the day. It's from

547
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,520
Speaker 5: Dallen Oaks, who was a religious leader and former Utah

548
00:29:56,600 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 5: Supreme Court justice, to our scene earlier today. This is

549
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:04,959
Speaker 5: really an interesting quote.

550
00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 4: I know that relative poverty and hard work are not

551
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:15,680
Speaker 4: greater adversities than affluence and abundant free time. One more time,

552
00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 4: I know that relative poverty and hard work are not

553
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,120
Speaker 4: greater adversities than of affluence and abundant free time.

554
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 1: And who said that? Dallan Oakes, who is a Utah

555
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 1: Supreme Court justice. The idea that.

556
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 4: Having to work hard and get ahead is a blessing

557
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,760
Speaker 4: compared to being affluent and having lots of free time

558
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 4: in terms of your development as a human being.

559
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 5: I would agree with that that's been my experience. Yeah,

560
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,640
Speaker 5: I do not do well with free time. More on

561
00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:54,160
Speaker 5: that theme through mailbag more fairly, swiftly. I don't want

562
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 5: to beat this to death, but bratt wrights guys. The

563
00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:01,280
Speaker 5: poll you discussed yesterday regarding people's outlook on the future

564
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:04,200
Speaker 5: reminded me of this thing. This part easy times make

565
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,680
Speaker 5: for soft people. My kids have grown up very easy

566
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 5: compared to me, and especially compared to my father and grandfather.

567
00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 1: I don't think my kids have ever had a blister.

568
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 4: Their easy life has made them soft and unwilling to

569
00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 4: put in any effort.

570
00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 5: I could have written that email that would.

571
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,480
Speaker 1: Put my experience so far. Are you I forgot to say?

572
00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 4: Drop this note mail bag at Armstrong and yetty dot com.

573
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,000
Speaker 1: Moving on. Don't think my kids have ever had a blister.

574
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,240
Speaker 1: I don't think my kids had at either.

575
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:30,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

576
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,720
Speaker 4: Valerie Rights Jack, I loved hearing about your visit to

577
00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,440
Speaker 4: your dad's home in Iowa. My mom was born in

578
00:31:35,480 --> 00:31:37,760
Speaker 4: nineteen twenty two grew up in a small coal mining

579
00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 4: town in Wyoming. Growing up in the modern suburb of

580
00:31:40,840 --> 00:31:43,200
Speaker 4: Big City, I was fascinated by my mom's grandmas and

581
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 4: ant's reminiscences about their life. It was a hard life,

582
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,920
Speaker 4: but they did not complain, was the frequently spoken theme.

583
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,720
Speaker 4: They spoke fondly about their lives, laughed, shared memories. Mom

584
00:31:53,800 --> 00:31:56,120
Speaker 4: said that at Christmas there is a community event where

585
00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 4: each child received a silver dollar and an orange, So

586
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:04,640
Speaker 4: we got a diamond an orange peel at my events. Well,

587
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 4: or you lived like a queen and her grandma actually

588
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:09,440
Speaker 4: was a teacher at one of those one room schools

589
00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,200
Speaker 4: like your dad attended.

590
00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:13,040
Speaker 5: Well, that kind of fits in with that quote. Oh yeah,

591
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,479
Speaker 5: you probably did this on purpose. You're a crafter of magic.

592
00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:17,480
Speaker 5: But that really fits in with that quote that you

593
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:20,680
Speaker 5: open with about affluence and you know, and leisure.

594
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's funny. Was my dad and his sister

595
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:27,320
Speaker 1: were telling all the stories. There was no that was

596
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 1: awful or that was so hard or anything. It was.

597
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 1: It was all kind of smiling, wistfully looking back on

598
00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: that lifestyle. Yeah, yeah, may be happy it was over.

599
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,320
Speaker 4: Just out of curiosity all all parents, especially, you know,

600
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 4: if your kids are grown, what is your most cherished

601
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,720
Speaker 4: memory with each of your children? You know, you might

602
00:32:49,760 --> 00:32:51,280
Speaker 4: have to think about it. I'd have to think about it.

603
00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:54,280
Speaker 4: One that pops to mind is something my daughter and

604
00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:59,320
Speaker 4: I did. That was very, very difficult cherish that memory,

605
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:03,080
Speaker 4: all sorts of fun times at amusement parks and stuff.

606
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:04,800
Speaker 4: You'd have to remind me that to even happened.

607
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 1: I don't.

608
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 4: I didn't get We didn't get satisfaction out of it.

609
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:11,720
Speaker 4: We got amusement out of it. And I'm pro amusement,

610
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:17,600
Speaker 4: trust me. Satisfaction is different thing. Yeah, moving along unless

611
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:18,040
Speaker 4: you have more.

612
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 5: Satisfaction is way more valuable and deeper in the better

613
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,760
Speaker 5: feeling long term than amusement. God, amusement is almost worthless.

614
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 5: It's barely okay in the time and has no lasting memory.

615
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 5: It's just a breath you take before you go off

616
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 5: and seek more satisfaction. I think Ryan from Houston with

617
00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 5: a really good and perceved email.

618
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,880
Speaker 4: The title is we are Doomed, Ryan. I'm not in

619
00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:46,680
Speaker 4: the mood. Maybe later, maybe another time, but good stuff.

620
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:50,880
Speaker 4: I would like to hear it. Yeah, Nick in Minnesota, right, guys,

621
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 4: I heard you talking about how you think Trump's tariffs

622
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:54,840
Speaker 4: on India are doing more harm than good and driving

623
00:33:54,840 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 4: them into the arms of China. Just wanted your take

624
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 4: on what you think Trump should do about them buying

625
00:33:58,800 --> 00:34:01,240
Speaker 4: Russian oil the whole reason he cranked up the tariffs

626
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:04,719
Speaker 4: over the last month or so, he was because they

627
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,600
Speaker 4: would not stop buying Russian oil. If, as you've said

628
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:09,680
Speaker 4: many times, we need to put more pressure on Russia

629
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,399
Speaker 4: to stop the Ukraine War, I don't see a better

630
00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 4: way to do it than trying to starve the Russian

631
00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,680
Speaker 4: war machine of funds. Well, that's absolutely true, Nick, You know,

632
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 4: I don't mean to be snarky. He imposed the tariffs

633
00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,080
Speaker 4: and drove India into the arms of Shijin Ping and

634
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 4: Vladimir Putin, and they're still buying Russian oil and will continue.

635
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:29,000
Speaker 1: So A.

636
00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,120
Speaker 4: It didn't work. B. That's what makes this stuff hard.

637
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 4: It's almost like, you know, parenting or whatever. You can

638
00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 4: only exert so much negative pressure before you've alienated somebody

639
00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 4: to the point that you have no effect on them anymore.

640
00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 5: You gotta be careful, right. There's also though the bad

641
00:34:54,320 --> 00:34:56,239
Speaker 5: outcome might have been gonna happen no matter what.

642
00:34:56,400 --> 00:35:00,439
Speaker 4: Anyway, that's absolutely true. Yeah, Nick, I'm not saying you're wrong.

643
00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:06,319
Speaker 4: I'm just saying this stuff is hard and well, and

644
00:35:06,360 --> 00:35:10,960
Speaker 4: it takes really really smart, perceptive people to do it well.

645
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 1: And that's why they're legends of history, honestly, and finally

646
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,840
Speaker 1: this Margaret.

647
00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:22,400
Speaker 5: Margaret went to the cracker barrel played the IQ test game,

648
00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 5: the new one. Not only Jack, everybody gets a trophy

649
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:29,000
Speaker 5: verbiage on it. No more calling you a moron.

650
00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 4: Or an ignoramus No, it's everybody's a winner in this game.

651
00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:36,840
Speaker 4: But it's cheap Chinese made and the word embarrassed is

652
00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:40,319
Speaker 4: embarrassingly spelled incorrectly on the game.

653
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,200
Speaker 5: I heard that, yeah, and it's cheap plastic now instead

654
00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:43,960
Speaker 5: of the way it used to be.

655
00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:47,080
Speaker 1: Oh man, the good times are long on America. Come on,

656
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:49,200
