Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Jetty and he Armstrong and Getty.

4
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 3: Four Los Angeles residents are facing charges in a highly

5
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 3: unusual case of insurance fraud. They allegedly donned a bear costume,

6
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:36,040
Speaker 3: vandalized their own luxury cars, captured it all on home surveillance,

7
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 3: and then filed one hundred and forty thousand dollars in claims.

8
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:44,520
Speaker 3: Insurance investigators became suspicious, and it wasn't long before detectives

9
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 3: made the grizzly discovery of a bear suit in the

10
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:49,560
Speaker 3: suspects home.

11
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,559
Speaker 1: So wow, any way to take all the fun out

12
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: of it? Be nice joke?

13
00:00:54,360 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 4: No, we had that story yesterday for you, noro reporting

14
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 4: it in serious tones.

15
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: I find odd, But go ahead. I'm sorry, I'm dispirited.

16
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:10,880
Speaker 1: I will try to get it back.

17
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know.

18
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 4: I want to hear the details on this story because

19
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 4: I haven't how good a bear costume wasn't Where do

20
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:21,319
Speaker 4: you get I have seen many bear costumes, and I

21
00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 4: will tell you this is your upper tier of bear costume.

22
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 1: On the other hand, here's the scam. These guys take

23
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 1: luxury cars, including a twenty ten Rolls Royce Ghost, and

24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: rip the hell out of the interior of it and

25
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: claim a bear did the damage for the insurance money.

26
00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: I guess they're they're clever. Plot though, is not merely

27
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 1: to take garden tools or carpentry items or.

28
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 2: What have you and destroy the interior.

29
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: By the way, we'll be getting too much more significant

30
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: fare in a little bit, but particularly given the attention

31
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: on our k and his hilarious dead bear prank, which

32
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 1: to me in no way negates his validity as a nominee.

33
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 2: Anyway, Joe was anti vax so these good good wait

34
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 2: make that leaf. That's an Olympian leaf.

35
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: Anyway, So these guys, clever, clever scamas, we're not just

36
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: gonna rip it up and claim, hey, we're in tall

37
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 1: with our Rolls Royce and I don't know a bear

38
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: got and not just rip it up. But they were

39
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:32,239
Speaker 1: going to cleverly create evidence so their insurance claim would

40
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: go through by having one of their buddies done a

41
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 1: bear suit and be seen rummaging around the car. Well,

42
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: two things tipped off authorities. Number One, they went to

43
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:50,800
Speaker 1: a biologist who said that's a guy in a bear

44
00:02:50,880 --> 00:03:02,320
Speaker 1: suit number two. Number two. Further investigation unveiled two more

45
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: claims involving other super luxury cars, all on the same

46
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: day in location in Lake Arrowhead in the Tahoe region.

47
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 4: Wow, it's amazing how dumb criminals often are. Oh yeah, wow,

48
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: So the bear suit part is dumb. But so you

49
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 4: were gonna do it multiple times in one day?

50
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,440
Speaker 2: Correct? Think that nobody would catch on?

51
00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 1: What?

52
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 2: It's pretty odds.

53
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 4: It doesn't happen very often that animals get into cars

54
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 4: and do damage and the insurance company has to pay out.

55
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:37,160
Speaker 4: But it happened to you multiple times in one day.

56
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 4: I'll be danged. What a weird coincidence? Harry your checks?

57
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 4: Is that how they thought it would play out?

58
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: They rarely seen vandal bear, which is mostly seen in Canada.

59
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: Right right, stop facing my luxury car. Beer?

60
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,440
Speaker 4: So I don't remember we talked about this yestherday. So

61
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: did one of them pretend to catch it on video

62
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 4: or did they park somewhere where they knew there would

63
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 4: be video surveillance? Well, they they made the video. Yeah,

64
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,840
Speaker 4: has anybody seen the video? Has that been released?

65
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: It? You've seen it? Katie? How's it. Look I did

66
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: see the video.

67
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 4: It looks like they parked the car right with an

68
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,760
Speaker 4: eyeshot of a ring camera.

69
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 1: Okay, it's okay, so they all right, oh wait a minute,

70
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:24,559
Speaker 1: is that the actual video?

71
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 2: But there it is.

72
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm gonna say now I'm watching it.

73
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:28,920
Speaker 2: Oh.

74
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: There he is rampaging around in his bearra costume.

75
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,599
Speaker 2: Would have been funny. Oh you know, right, so funny.

76
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:42,520
Speaker 1: So he starts in a fairly convincing all fours ish

77
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,400
Speaker 1: scratching and.

78
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 2: Pawing around thing.

79
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:46,800
Speaker 1: But then at one point he just sits down and

80
00:04:46,880 --> 00:04:51,200
Speaker 1: turns in a way that is unmistakably human.

81
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 2: Oh that is so funny.

82
00:04:54,120 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 1: As yeah, re zips up the chest of beer suit

83
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,680
Speaker 1: and then goes back to work mauling the poor car.

84
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,360
Speaker 2: Contest is funny. Oh my god, Oh my god.

85
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 4: I want to know more about these people who came

86
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 4: up with this hilarious idea and then thought they could

87
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,440
Speaker 4: pull it off multiple times in one day. And then,

88
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,640
Speaker 4: of course, because they got we're gonna get one hundred

89
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 4: and forty thousand dollars, I think, okay, so how many

90
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 4: others or four of you and you're so you're gonna

91
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,760
Speaker 4: go off and live your unbelievable life of your dreams

92
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 4: on the forty.

93
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: Thousand dollars each that you got out of the insurance company.

94
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:31,279
Speaker 2: I mean, what in the hell?

95
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, scumbags aren't much for long term planning in

96
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 1: my experience.

97
00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 2: But yeah.

98
00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,160
Speaker 1: Now, the way this is worded in LA magazine is

99
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: that these subjects reportedly swindled insurance companies out of one

100
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: hundred and forty and thirty nine dollars before being apprehended.

101
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 2: Wow. So evidently their claims were paid.

102
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: And then it got kicked up to the fraud department

103
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: at the insurance companies.

104
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 2: I guess I don't know.

105
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 4: So you're telling me if you had looked at that

106
00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,400
Speaker 4: video and didn't know the story, If you heard the

107
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,680
Speaker 4: story a bear broke into a car and rampage around,

108
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 4: ruin it, which is not impossible, happens in cabins all

109
00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 4: the time. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, would you have immediately said,

110
00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,599
Speaker 4: wait a second if you hadn't known it was a

111
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 4: guy in a bear costume, do you think.

112
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 1: Hang on, I'm watching the Oh, the moment I'll make

113
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 1: sure you see this during the commercials, But the moment

114
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 1: he sits down and turns it also clearly shows that

115
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,039
Speaker 1: it's a bear suit loose bear suit because of the

116
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 1: way that the as you like you're sitting but you turn,

117
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:39,120
Speaker 1: the way the fabric creases is so obviously somebody wearing

00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,520
Speaker 1: it low rent bear.

119
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 2: Costume, a loaded medium runt. They were not a particularly

120
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,040
Speaker 2: good letter costume. Is the problem.

121
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, well he doesn't fill it out because he's.

122
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,640
Speaker 2: That you needed a fat or dude.

123
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,200
Speaker 1: Oh no, that is just so funny way and when

124
00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 1: he sits and turns, oh, that's beautiful. We don't post

125
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 1: this video at Armstrong Engeddi dot com so you can

126
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,120
Speaker 1: you can watch it and enjoy with your friends and family.

127
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 4: And keeping with your axiom about people and their intelligence

128
00:07:11,560 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 4: and crime.

129
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: Ah. Yes, my old.

130
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 1: Buddy Drew, the career FBI agent who once said to me, Joe,

131
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: if you want proof that you're not smart enough to

132
00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,160
Speaker 1: pull off a life of crime, it's that you're considering

133
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 1: a life in crime, right, And like.

134
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 2: You said, they're not usually in the long term planning.

135
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 4: But I've been thinking since I was a kid, when

136
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 4: I would ever hear about various robbery stuff like that,

137
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 4: I thought, Okay, unless you keep committing these crimes, which

138
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 4: you'll eventually get caught. You're not set for life because

139
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 4: you got a thousand or ten thousand or fifty thousand dollars.

140
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:46,320
Speaker 4: You're not set for life. What are you gonna do now,

141
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,559
Speaker 4: you idiot? You know you're set for a little while.

142
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 4: Then you go and come up with your next kper.

143
00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 4: I guess that's got to be the thinking. I don't

144
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:55,760
Speaker 4: live and work among those people, so I don't know.

145
00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 4: But and or they're just junkies that are so desperate

146
00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 4: to score they will do anything. I've known a lot

147
00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,000
Speaker 4: of people who live one weekend at a time. I mean,

148
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: all you got to do is have a fun weekend.

149
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,760
Speaker 4: This you don't even think past Saturday night.

150
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, Nancy Pelosi gets four pinocchios from the Washington Post.

151
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 1: Then at the bottom of the hour, we will dive

152
00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: back into the cabinet appointments President former future president Trump

153
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 1: has offered up and some of the controversies around it.

154
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,319
Speaker 1: I suspect I will offend everyone. But if you want panderin,

155
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 1: go elsewhere. I just I can't do it. Not gonna

156
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 1: do it.

157
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:37,720
Speaker 4: You see, kids, they went out and bought a bear costume.

158
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 4: You have to spend money to make money. It's an investment.

159
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 4: You'd put it down on your sheet as an investment

160
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 4: in the corporation.

161
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: Katie, I need your opinion on this. As always, whenever

162
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,200
Speaker 1: the show gets into aesthetics, I would like, you know,

163
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:55,599
Speaker 1: the womanly perspective for ages. As a kid, I dreamed,

164
00:08:56,080 --> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: dreamed of having the full gorilla costume dream for Halloween.

165
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,240
Speaker 1: It's a beautiful dream and it has to do with

166
00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: my great affection for like the nineteen thirties comedies and

167
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: like Abbot and Castello, the Marx Brothers, Three Stooges and

168
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: stuff like that. A guy in a gorilla costume is

169
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: just funny. Winter Home Run, I'm starting to feel like

170
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:25,640
Speaker 1: maybe bear costume is even more. I just is there

171
00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: more opportunity.

172
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 4: For humor more? I think bear costume is funnier. Yeah,

173
00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 4: A really good bear costume really good because you're always

174
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 4: on your hind legs walking around like a human.

175
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 1: That's great, right, And you know, I could go to

176
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 1: Halloween and Judy could be like a pot of honey

177
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 1: or something like that.

178
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,240
Speaker 2: I mean, that would be kind of cute.

179
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,680
Speaker 1: Judy could be a singer that you're following around, or

180
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,240
Speaker 1: she could be a woman with a Kayak for folks

181
00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: you know familiar with that meme.

182
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,720
Speaker 2: I vote bear suit. Yeah, okay, let the gorilla dream go.

183
00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,880
Speaker 2: I vote suit. You know what, You're right.

184
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: That is one of the main parts of maturing in

185
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:05,599
Speaker 1: life is you've got to figure out which dreams to

186
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 1: let go. There are going to be some tears tonight,

187
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 1: but it's time to move on.

188
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:10,520
Speaker 2: You'll be okay.

189
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 4: Joe says he's going to offend everyone in your opinions

190
00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 4: about Matt Gaets and other Trump picks. So that's fantastic

191
00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,360
Speaker 4: for me. Straight business model.

192
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:27,000
Speaker 5: The way Divide administration announced this week that will find

193
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 5: oil and gas companies for emitting methane. And now New

194
00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 5: Jersey is scrambling to come up with a new smell.

195
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,560
Speaker 4: New Jersey is stinky in places New Yorkers like. Making

196
00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:47,400
Speaker 4: fun of New Jersey means nothing to the rest of

197
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 4: the country, really.

198
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 1: Correct, correct, If you have not tooled along the turnpike,

199
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 1: it means nothing to you. And yet is it enough

200
00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: part of the culture that people chuckle.

201
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 4: I don't know, only from watching sitcoms as a kid,

202
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 4: where they'd make fun of New Jersey meant nothing to me.

203
00:11:06,840 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.

204
00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: Having spent a great deal of time in New Jersey.

205
00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: I'll tell you that it is stinky and urban in

206
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,400
Speaker 1: a lot of places, and absolutely gorgeous and rural in

207
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: a lot of places too. But anyway, it's enough New

208
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: Jersey talk. There's part of me that doesn't want to

209
00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 1: bother with this next story.

210
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,480
Speaker 2: But Nancy Pelosi.

211
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,200
Speaker 1: And your little dog too, Yeah, no kidding, just got

212
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:37,440
Speaker 1: fact checked by the Washington Post for pinotios, as I

213
00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,559
Speaker 1: prefer to pronounce it. She was talking to the cackling,

214
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: horrible hens of the View, which really, I'm willing to

215
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,880
Speaker 1: do a carve out on the First Amendment if we

216
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:52,640
Speaker 1: can get the View off the air. I am willing

217
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:56,680
Speaker 1: to risk my most dearest, my closely held principle.

218
00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:00,560
Speaker 2: But anyway, so she's on the View the other day.

219
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: Well, actually there are a couple of things she said.

220
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,199
Speaker 1: But she told The New York Times during a recent

221
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: interview quote, I don't think we were clear enough by

222
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,680
Speaker 1: saying fewer people came in under President Biden than under

223
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:14,559
Speaker 1: Donald Trump.

224
00:12:15,320 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: It's clarity the message.

225
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 1: And if that's what Ernie's talking about, and that was

226
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: Joe Manchin's talking about, we weren't clearing a message as.

227
00:12:22,280 --> 00:12:24,160
Speaker 2: To what things are, then I agree with that.

228
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 1: So she's saying they lost the election because they weren't

229
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: clear enough about immigration, that fewer people and I quote

230
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 1: came in under Biden then came in.

231
00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,840
Speaker 4: Under Trump, and then she started shrieking, a melting, a melting.

232
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 1: The Washington Post published a fact check on Wednesday and

233
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 1: noted it was a documented fact and I quote that

234
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,840
Speaker 1: at least four times as many migrants. When did we

235
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: start saying migrants, folks? Why do we let them change

236
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: the language?

237
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: Anyway?

238
00:12:57,080 --> 00:13:00,400
Speaker 1: At least four times as many illegal immigrants entered the

239
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,880
Speaker 1: United States under Biden than under Trump. Well, she was

240
00:13:03,960 --> 00:13:06,599
Speaker 1: quite fewer, more than four times, as Manny.

241
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 2: Too.

242
00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 4: In her defense, I would say, uh, most people don't

243
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,559
Speaker 4: read the fact check column in the Washington Post. A

244
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 4: lot more people God help us watch the view or

245
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 4: read the New York Times or hear the quote from

246
00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 4: the New York Times or whatever.

247
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

248
00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,560
Speaker 4: So you know a lot of politicians have figured out

249
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:34,160
Speaker 4: say whatever you want to say.

250
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,959
Speaker 1: A spokeshole for the soulless lying Old Hag said that

251
00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:42,840
Speaker 1: Wousey was refording to deportations during the interview, not illegal

252
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,679
Speaker 1: immigrants coming into the country, as she unequivocally stated, but

253
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: she meant deportations.

254
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 2: Oh my goodness.

255
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: Sold RFK juniors up for HHS secretary. I was just

256
00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 4: looking up at Fox News and I assume this is

257
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 4: what they're talking about. They got a stat up there,

258
00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 4: according to the CDC, forty percent of kids have at

259
00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 4: least one chronic condition.

260
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 2: Now it is shocking, it is shy.

261
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,400
Speaker 4: So here's where RFK Junior gets some purchase and probably

262
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 4: why so many of the MAGA crowd or just people

263
00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 4: in general are willing to listen to him.

264
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: Joe, and I've been saying this for years.

265
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 4: Why isn't it like the biggest story in America that

266
00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:32,600
Speaker 4: everybody with kids has like at least one kid that

267
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 4: has anxiety or ADHD or is on the autism spectrum

268
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:38,720
Speaker 4: or something like every family.

269
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:43,040
Speaker 1: I know, Why isn't that a bigger crisis. Something's causing

270
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: that And or is obese. Yeah, new stats out on

271
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:53,800
Speaker 1: obesit yesterday that were horrific. But that was like nobody

272
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,160
Speaker 1: when I was a kid, and you always get the

273
00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,400
Speaker 1: pushback of well they just didn't diagnose it, which is

274
00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 1: true a little, but not near enough to cover everything

275
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: that's going on now. Yeah, So That's where RFK Junior

276
00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: gets a lot of attention because he at least raises

277
00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:13,040
Speaker 1: it to the you know, four a long fire level

278
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:15,560
Speaker 1: that it should be at. I don't know if his

279
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: you know prescriptions are anywhere close to correct, but something's

280
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:21,520
Speaker 1: causing it, and I don't know if it's microplastics like

281
00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: he talks about all the time, or elastic in your

282
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 1: underwear as I hear, or all kinds of different things

283
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 1: right right, And we're getting very, very close to the

284
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 1: very thing I wanted to talk about next hour, So

285
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: I won't weigh in here. I'm sorry, not next hour,

286
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:38,320
Speaker 1: next segment in which I will offend everybody, but I

287
00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: want to talk about Trump's various appointments and the discussion

288
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:45,280
Speaker 1: around them. Speaking of dietary stuff, though big news study

289
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: has come out, take it as seriously as you like.

290
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 2: It's from the University of Chicago.

291
00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: Intermittent fasting is not the health hack many people hoped

292
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: it would make.

293
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 4: It's the greatest thing I've ever done and I will

294
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 4: never stop it. Why Because it's the only diet that's

295
00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 4: ever worked for me.

296
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 1: Bingo Gringo. They said it's actually pretty effective for losing weight.

297
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: It's the only girl ever worked in my life. And

298
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,320
Speaker 1: it's so simple. I'm a very simple person. So I

299
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:12,320
Speaker 1: don't start eating till two.

300
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 4: I quit it seven I've lost weight and kept it

301
00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 4: off for three years.

302
00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 2: Then you eat like a malnourished lion.

303
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 4: Then, unfortunately, I have an incredibly awful diet. If I

304
00:16:22,360 --> 00:16:24,400
Speaker 4: if I ate better food during that period of time,

305
00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 4: I would be quite healthy.

306
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 2: But I do not. Yeah, actually, science agrees with you completely.

307
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 1: It's a pretty effective way to lose weight for a

308
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: lot of folks for a limited time. But you know

309
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: that's if you get the weight off. You got the

310
00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 1: weight off. But there is like everything these days online.

311
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: A cult grew around it that it could lower your

312
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 1: inflammation levels, lengthen your life span, blah blah.

313
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:45,080
Speaker 2: Blah blah blah.

314
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,880
Speaker 1: Some evidence suggests fasting can make it harder to build

315
00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: and retain muscle.

316
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,120
Speaker 4: But I'm in the best shape I've been in my

317
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:56,920
Speaker 4: entire life right now. That's all I can say by

318
00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 4: anecdotal evidence. One man says, I sure eat crap during

319
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 4: that period of time. If I could straighten that out, man,

320
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 4: would I feel good? Two o'clock comes and I eat

321
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 4: garbage for five hours which is horrible. Joe offends everyone.

322
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 4: That's our new segment coming up.

323
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,560
Speaker 2: Next, Armstrong and Getty.

324
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 1: Trump is really filling out his administration at a rapid

325
00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 1: pace now. He made seven of these announcements yesterday alone,

326
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: the last of which happened last night right.

327
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,320
Speaker 2: Here in Florida. Regarding North Dakota Governor Doug Bergham, I

328
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,480
Speaker 2: won't tell you the name of is the exact name.

329
00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 2: I think he's an incredible person.

330
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 5: Might be something like Burgham Burgham.

331
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 2: He's from North Dakota. He's going to be announced tomorrow

332
00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 2: for a very big position. He's going to head the

333
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 2: Department of Interior, and he's going to be fantastic. That's

334
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 2: a Trump doing a joke. I think it's interesting the way.

335
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 4: I think it's interesting the way Fox treats all of

336
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:59,119
Speaker 4: the nominees with roughly the same weight as if the

337
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:02,000
Speaker 4: rest of the country. He is not saying holy crap

338
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,919
Speaker 4: to Matt Gates, Tulci Gabbard to a certain extent, the

339
00:18:04,960 --> 00:18:08,119
Speaker 4: Defense Secretary, and certainly RFK Junior. But on a lot

340
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 4: of their news shows they just announced Monnie also Menjie.

341
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: He mentioned RFK.

342
00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 4: Junior for AHHS secretary and Doug Burgham to run Interior

343
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,520
Speaker 4: and other news.

344
00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 2: Whoa, whoa, whoa, Wait a second, this is a big story.

345
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:28,119
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, I feel very lucky liberated to not have

346
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,320
Speaker 1: to I don't worry about that sort of stuff. I mean,

347
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:32,720
Speaker 1: they obviously don't want to ruffle any white house feathers.

348
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:35,960
Speaker 1: Nobody's no white house feathers. Give a damn what I say.

349
00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:37,720
Speaker 1: So it's fun.

350
00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 4: One thing before it just starts talking to you should

351
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 4: know about the AHHS. Thing is we talked to who

352
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 4: was the secretary of HHS.

353
00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 1: That we had on I couldn't remember, but I just

354
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 1: told this story to some friends last night because we

355
00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,919
Speaker 1: had them. I remember my opening, Joe, We'll go ahead.

356
00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I was just gonna say. I said, yeah,

357
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,400
Speaker 1: we were really hoping for the Secretary of Defense, but

358
00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 1: you know, we'll talk to you.

359
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,159
Speaker 2: And he said, my budget's a lot bigger.

360
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 4: Which it is, two trillion dollar budget for HHS that

361
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,200
Speaker 4: RFK Junior would be running if he gets a jump

362
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 4: two trillion dollar budget.

363
00:19:09,520 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 2: Wow, Medicare and medicaid.

364
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 1: That's why it's an enormous department with enormous responsibilities for

365
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 1: health and food and drugs and all sorts of stuff.

366
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 2: So I want to talk about.

367
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: The nominations in general, and some of the more controversial ones,

368
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,879
Speaker 1: and some of the conversation that's going out going on

369
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 1: out there, including Donald J. Trump pushing the Senate had

370
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,520
Speaker 1: better be ready to just go ahead and do recess

371
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: appointments for me.

372
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,360
Speaker 2: So, yes, the.

373
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:46,160
Speaker 1: President gets to appoint his cabinet, and the Senate advises

374
00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:50,800
Speaker 1: and consents and in short approves his nominees. Given a

375
00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,040
Speaker 1: great deal of deference to the president because he got

376
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,200
Speaker 1: elected to head up the executive branch, and he gets

377
00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 1: to choose who he wants to help him within reason,

378
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 1: and if especially senators of his own party say yeah, yeah,

379
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 1: I kind of see what you're going with with a

380
00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:13,920
Speaker 1: Matt Gates or something. But he's a scumbag and he's

381
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 1: dangerous for the country. And sorry, but I'll bet you

382
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: got somebody else back there you could, you could nominate.

383
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 1: Why don't you do that. That's exactly what they're gonna do,

384
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,200
Speaker 1: and that's exactly what they should do.

385
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 2: It's irresponsibility.

386
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,679
Speaker 1: Now we could get into the hole as Trump sincerely

387
00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: nominating gets or is this three to five dimensional chess,

388
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: depending on who's describing it. I was trying to understand

389
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: what five dimensional chests might be. I mean, you got

390
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:41,800
Speaker 1: back for it up down through time, yes, and then

391
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: and I don't throw a wormhole and you end up on.

392
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 2: Saturday and all quantum mechanics.

393
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: Oh lord, well, I'm I'm a wasted don't include me

394
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:51,960
Speaker 1: in the conversation.

395
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:57,240
Speaker 2: But that's it's absolutely appropriate. And nobody knows that yet either.

396
00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,000
Speaker 2: What's that? Nobody knows that yet.

397
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 4: Whether it was a sincere nomination or a sacrificial lamb

398
00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:05,919
Speaker 4: or whatever everybody's guessing.

399
00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

400
00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,960
Speaker 1: I could turn out to be wrong, but I think

401
00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,720
Speaker 1: the Gates thing will will end before it begins. He

402
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: will either voluntarily withdraw his name at Trump's behest, or

403
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,480
Speaker 1: the Trump administration will just get winned. He's gonna get

404
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:25,160
Speaker 1: four votes, I mean total, and Trumpell withdraw it. It's

405
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:28,199
Speaker 1: a terrible nomination. And Gates is an idiot. Oh, he's

406
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,480
Speaker 1: probably not an idiot, but he's morally reprehensible.

407
00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: He was barely a lawyer.

408
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,240
Speaker 4: I mean, he did go to law school and pass

409
00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 4: the bar, but he was a lawyer for like a

410
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 4: year and did almost nothing at this firm. And then

411
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 4: his rich family, well connected dad was in government, already

412
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 4: started him on his path to being a congress person.

413
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 4: And so, yeah, I don't know how much law experience

414
00:21:51,440 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 4: you need to have to be attorney general, but it

415
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:54,760
Speaker 4: seems like it'd.

416
00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:56,320
Speaker 2: Be pretty good to have a fair amount.

417
00:21:57,760 --> 00:21:59,880
Speaker 1: And then the other thing that I've heard that really bob,

418
00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,240
Speaker 1: and there are some people taking this seriously, is what

419
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:07,160
Speaker 1: Trump said. And this is from the moment he came

420
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,119
Speaker 1: down the escalator. What I've been saying a lot of

421
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:14,040
Speaker 1: good ideas. He doesn't get the importance of adhering to

422
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:14,840
Speaker 1: the Constitution.

423
00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:17,000
Speaker 2: Neither did Biden.

424
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,400
Speaker 1: For what it's worth, Biden knowingly constantly crapped on the Constitution,

425
00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 1: discore political points like the it's a metaphor.

426
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,720
Speaker 2: To score points like on the student loan forgiveness that.

427
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,840
Speaker 1: He knew from moment one the Supreme Court would have

428
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:36,640
Speaker 1: to smack down. But he and this is disgusting, even

429
00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: more disgusting than my metaphors to score political points, forced

430
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 1: the courts to knock down his utterly unconstitutional policies, and

431
00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:54,639
Speaker 1: then bad mouthed to courts, thereby undermining America's faith in

432
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 1: what is a brilliant judicial system, for all its flaws.

433
00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 1: Utterly unforgivable. Okay, so it's absolutely both sides. But Trump,

434
00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,560
Speaker 1: do you know what recess appointments are. It's mostly a

435
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:12,879
Speaker 1: historical you know, what's the word artifact, anomaly, throwback, an achronism.

436
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:18,480
Speaker 1: That's that an acronism back when the Senate was only

437
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: in session like half the year and it took three

438
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:25,280
Speaker 1: weeks on horseback to get from you know, Georgia to

439
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:29,359
Speaker 1: d C to cast a vote. If the Secretary of

440
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,239
Speaker 1: Defense died or something, and we're at war with the

441
00:23:32,280 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 1: Indians or Britain or both, or France or whatever, the

442
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:40,400
Speaker 1: president could make a temporary recess appointment, and traditionally those

443
00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,760
Speaker 1: people have served like up to two years. But that

444
00:23:42,840 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 1: was an an achronism of a vanished age, and it

445
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: gets around the constitutional check and or balance that says, look,

446
00:23:54,480 --> 00:24:01,639
Speaker 1: the Senate has to approve these important appointments. And a

447
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: lot of Ultramaga type people are saying the president won big,

448
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 1: he won a mandate, he gets who he wants, and

449
00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 1: if the Senate doesn't like it, they can pound sand

450
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,120
Speaker 1: all right, First of all, do you understand, as Jack

451
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: often points out, if you establish this precedent, what you

452
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: have done the next time a Democrat wins, and a

453
00:24:25,640 --> 00:24:29,159
Speaker 1: democrat is going to win down the road, I mean,

454
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:30,920
Speaker 1: would you like to fill in the blank or I can,

455
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 1: or I would hope most of our folks listening are

456
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,919
Speaker 1: understand the system well enough to understand. You let some

457
00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 1: lunatic democrat, you know, appoint Rachel or what was the

458
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: Dylan mulvaney secretary of Education, and yeah, for instance, and

459
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,160
Speaker 1: you know whatever Hollywood to George Clooney's the secretary of Defense,

460
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,000
Speaker 1: and it just no, no, by God odd cherish the

461
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:03,119
Speaker 1: checks and balances?

462
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:06,639
Speaker 2: Are they inconvenient to your guy? Sometimes? Yeah?

463
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:11,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, in the same way, you know, being honest and principle,

464
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: it's kind of an inconvenience when you see a guy

465
00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,000
Speaker 1: drop one hundred dollar bill. You know what, you could

466
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,640
Speaker 1: have one hundred dollars if it wasn't for your stinking mortals.

467
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 1: But listen, it's an inconvenience. It's a it's a hill

468
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:27,960
Speaker 1: Trump has to climb to get his nominees through. And

469
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 1: is it possible that the swamp can slow down Trump's

470
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 1: righteous efforts to clean up the swamp by rejecting some

471
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,399
Speaker 1: of his most righteous swamp cleaners.

472
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:43,800
Speaker 2: Yep, that's true.

473
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,679
Speaker 1: That's not a good enough excuse to chuck the constitution.

474
00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 4: Please, I haven't spent a fair amount of time last

475
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:56,760
Speaker 4: night in social media and going from super maga to

476
00:25:56,800 --> 00:26:01,359
Speaker 4: super maga person who was so excited about Matt Gates

477
00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,000
Speaker 4: being the Attorney General. My question would be, and maybe

478
00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,720
Speaker 4: you can text if you're that sort of person, because

479
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,160
Speaker 4: I was sincerely asking, is it because you don't believe

480
00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 4: that he's the scumbag that he's being portrayed to be,

481
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,879
Speaker 4: or you don't care.

482
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:16,360
Speaker 2: Maybe you don't care.

483
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:17,919
Speaker 4: You think if he'd take a wrecking ball to the

484
00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 4: Justice Department, his personal life doesn't matter to you.

485
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,560
Speaker 2: Or do you think it's a deep state.

486
00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:29,119
Speaker 4: Fake news attempt to tear him down, these stories about

487
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 4: the young girls and the way too much sex and

488
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 4: drugs and all that sort of stuff.

489
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'd be curious to hear. I am interested. I

490
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,200
Speaker 2: don't actually know the answer.

491
00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,679
Speaker 4: I just don't understand because I saw an awful lot

492
00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 4: of you know, Christian Cross's prayer included thank God for

493
00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:46,320
Speaker 4: Matt Gates.

494
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,680
Speaker 2: He's a freaking scumbag. He's a bad guy.

495
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 4: You don't want him around your family or your church,

496
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:53,920
Speaker 4: or your wife or your daughter.

497
00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,639
Speaker 2: Or anybody. Tell your sons and your granddad.

498
00:26:57,760 --> 00:27:00,320
Speaker 4: Now if you hear them away from my dog is

499
00:27:00,359 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 4: I don't care about his personal life. I just want

500
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,720
Speaker 4: the Justice Department to, you know, have an outsider comman.

501
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,119
Speaker 2: Okay, at least that's an argument.

502
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,639
Speaker 1: But I've got a big fat on the other hand,

503
00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 1: okay for you, and you're gonna you're gonna like it.

504
00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:14,479
Speaker 2: If you hated the far previous stuff, you're gonna like it.

505
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: But after a quick word from our friends that simply

506
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,399
Speaker 1: save home security. All of us love our families, we

507
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:23,000
Speaker 1: want to protect our homes. There's no better time to act.

508
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,840

Speaker 4: preventing crime before it even happens. If someone's lurking around

517
00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 4: acting suspiciously, there are agents watching them, seeing them in

518

Speaker 4: chance to break in.

00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've been working on this technology like crazy, and

522
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,479

00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:33,040
Speaker 1: Jose Joe's dropping a two kill a ton truth bomb.

534
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 1: Here it comes.

535
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:39,000
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, brace yourselves. Here's the deal.

536
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 1: And we're not going to agree on Matt Gates if

537
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,280
Speaker 1: you love the guy, We're just never going to. But

538
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: I will tell you this, those of you who are

539
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:54,520
Speaker 1: saying there's going to be huge pushback on any Trump nominee,

540
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:59,640
Speaker 1: that's actually going to effect change true one hundred percent tury.

541
00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:01,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah that.

542
00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: And am I willing to accept a little loose canonism,

543
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:11,520
Speaker 1: like a term I just made up being a loose cannon.

544
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: I mean, like RFK Junior. There are times I thought

545
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,440
Speaker 1: he's come off as a nut job, but some of

546
00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:24,360
Speaker 1: his core messages about big pharma, about big food, about

547
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: what our kids eat and the way our kids eat,

548
00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:31,320
Speaker 1: he's right about that stuff. I'm looking forward to the

549
00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 1: hearings on RFK Junior because he's an interesting case for me.

550
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,320
Speaker 2: Pete Hagsath, Department of Defense.

551
00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: His orientation isn't lobbyists and the military industrial complex. His

552
00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: orientation is our heroes and our success as a military,

553
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: pairing it down, making it twenty first century, you know,

554
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:59,360
Speaker 1: fast moving, light on our feet, embracing technological change. I

555
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,600
Speaker 1: don't know that he's the right guy for the job,

556
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: but yeah, they're incredibly powerful forces that don't want any

557
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:08,640
Speaker 1: of that, and I'm intrigued by his choice. So yeah,

558
00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 1: Trump got a mandate to shake things up. But the

559
00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 1: way I look at it, it's like a Venn diagram.

560
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,800
Speaker 1: Trump chose him, you know, and then you got a

561
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 1: circle that will shake things up, and then there's a

562
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 1: circle of is not a reprehensible human being or a

563
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:33,960
Speaker 1: crack pot? And sorry if he's a Trump choice and

564
00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:37,840
Speaker 1: he would shake up DC. But he's a crackpot or

565
00:30:37,840 --> 00:30:40,800
Speaker 1: a reprehensible human being. No, he doesn't have my support.

566
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 1: And I thank God for the Constitution.

567
00:30:43,640 --> 00:30:44,600
Speaker 2: And I want to tell you what.

568
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 1: We can find people who are going to do the

569
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,680
Speaker 1: first couple of things who aren't the second couple.

570
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 2: Of guys or women.

571
00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:51,880
Speaker 1: It can be done.

572
00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,480
Speaker 4: There's gonna be a lot of reporting around all of

573
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:59,600
Speaker 4: these big candidates, particularly Gates, RFK Junior and Tulsea Gabbard.

574
00:31:00,120 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 4: All your big uh anti Donald publications are going to

575
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,320
Speaker 4: be digging into their lives a lot.

576
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:07,560
Speaker 1: Oh the final thing, A lot of people point to

577
00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:10,840
Speaker 1: George W. Busher did a recess appointment that was back

578
00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 1: when pre Harry Reid there was a filipbuster against appointments,

579
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,440
Speaker 1: and they just wouldn't vote.

580
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 2: They refuse to.

581
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: Vote on his guy that doesn't exist anymore. Fifty one

582
00:31:20,280 --> 00:31:20,840
Speaker 1: gets her done.

583
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:24,560
Speaker 4: Fifty one gets her done. I like the way you

584
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:29,120
Speaker 4: rhymed it. The I'm saying really good, thanks, thank you,

585
00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:31,200
Speaker 4: uh you those of you from Matt Gates. You either

586
00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,360
Speaker 4: don't believe the stuff or you don't care. Text line

587
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,200
Speaker 4: four one five two nine five KFTC.

588
00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:39,560
Speaker 5: He's angry.

589
00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 2: He's angry, little elf. Mike Tyson. I thought that was

590
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,560
Speaker 2: a q slab, buddy, But tomorrow you're gonna knock the

591
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:49,360
Speaker 2: fuck out.

592
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:58,960
Speaker 4: Part That sounds are way more WWE than actual boxing.

593
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:00,640
Speaker 2: So Mike Olaora out of my mouse.

594
00:32:00,640 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 4: So Mike Tyson slapped Jake Paul at the way in,

595
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 4: and then that's Jake Paul's reaction.

596
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 2: It's personal. Now, okay, so how do you watch this thing?

597
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,160
Speaker 4: The Jake Paul Mike Tyson fight won't air like most

598
00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:20,120
Speaker 4: boxing pay per views. It'll take place tonight. It's at

599
00:32:20,160 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 4: at and T Stadium in Texas on Netflix. If you

600
00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 4: have Netflix, you get to watch. That's the way that

601
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,280
Speaker 4: works for net flicks subscribers. The entirety of the event

602
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,240
Speaker 4: will be free. If you don't have Netflix, then you

603
00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,720
Speaker 4: will need one to watch the fight. It's just whether

604
00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:41,760
Speaker 4: you have Netflix or not. Now we were just discussing. Now,

605
00:32:42,320 --> 00:32:44,600
Speaker 4: Usually like this sort of thing, there's like all kinds

606
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 4: of these preliminaries. They try to drag it out to

607
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,480
Speaker 4: get in as many commercials as possible.

608
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:49,680
Speaker 2: But Netflix doesn't have.

609
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 4: Commercials like that, so there's no reason to drag it

610
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 4: out to make more money, right, don't you think it's

611
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:56,720
Speaker 4: all about subscriptions?

612
00:32:56,840 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, or so you'd think they would.

613
00:33:00,280 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 1: It would be in their interest to have a good,

614
00:33:01,760 --> 00:33:04,600
Speaker 1: punchy no pun intended event. So in the future the

615
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 1: next one, people say, yeah, that last one was great.

616
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 4: I would assume they're gonna do a lot of promotions

617
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,600
Speaker 4: for other shows that they have on or coming up,

618
00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:14,240
Speaker 4: like you know, internal Netflix stuff, like to remind you

619
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 4: the comedy special with Nate Bargatzi. He's got a new

620
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:18,880
Speaker 4: one coming out Friday night on Netflix. I gotta believe

621
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 4: there's gonna be a lot of that sort of stuff. Yeah,

622
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:26,000
Speaker 4: but yeah, i'd believe him wanting more rather than wear

623
00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 4: people out and think I wish I hadn't done this.

624
00:33:28,960 --> 00:33:30,000
Speaker 2: I have no idea.

625
00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:35,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, so is there an undercart I mean, is like

626
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:40,959
Speaker 1: mister Beast gonna beat up George Foreman, I don't know.

627
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 2: That's pretty of.

628
00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,719
Speaker 1: TikTok is gonna fight Joe Fraser. Joe Fraser even with us,

629
00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:46,080
Speaker 1: I don't know.

630
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:49,840
Speaker 2: I think he's past that is pretty funny.

631
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 1: Jordan Peterson's gonna fight mam and Ali's daughter. I'm betting

632
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:03,920
Speaker 1: on Layla. So if I as I've mentioned several times

633
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 1: this week.

634
00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 4: I'm speaking at my son's high school today for career Day,

635
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:13,400
Speaker 4: and I've wrestled a little bit with how much I should,

636
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:16,640
Speaker 4: you know, encourage people to get into basically show business,

637
00:34:16,680 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 4: because while one, it is very fun and can be

638
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 4: lucrative if you're successful at it, it, it isn't.

639
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:23,640
Speaker 2: For most people.

640
00:34:25,160 --> 00:34:27,600
Speaker 4: And uh, and it's a long slog and a and

641
00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,880
Speaker 4: a in a bit of a gamble, but that aside.

642
00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,600
Speaker 4: I was trying to I was going put together an

643
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,960
Speaker 4: outline of what I'm going to talk about, and uh,

644
00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 4: because I got to kill thirty minutes somehow. And my

645
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 4: son is really concerned about how I'm gonna dress. He said,

646
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:42,280
Speaker 4: don't wear a suit, Dad, Please don't wear a suit.

647
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:44,719
Speaker 4: So I'm not wearing a suit.

648
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 2: I told him. I said, I'm gonna come in. I'm

649
00:34:46,120 --> 00:34:47,000
Speaker 2: gonna wear a hat backward.

650
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 4: I'm gonna come in with my hat on and then

651
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 4: turn around backwards so everybody knows I'm cool.

652
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:55,319
Speaker 1: He was really groaning over these ideas, and I've come

653
00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:57,080
Speaker 1: up with a rap, so I know how I know

654
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,400
Speaker 1: how kids your age, I corryt so you really like

655
00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 1: to talk, but but you want to make money, be

656
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,600
Speaker 1: kind of smart, to make sure you're funny, yeah, or

657
00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:05,359
Speaker 1: something like that.

658
00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:06,400
Speaker 2: Wow.

659
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 4: So with the hat on backwards in my wrap, I

660
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 4: think I'll really bring the high school kids to me, which,

661
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 4: of course it horrified my son.

662
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 2: Did he express to you why he was anti suit?

663
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 4: He wants to look like a cool job, not like

664
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 4: a you know, because when you're young, I did.

665
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 2: Were in a suit. Seems kind of stayed or something.

666
00:35:26,440 --> 00:35:27,719
Speaker 2: I don't know what it is. I don't remember what

667
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,359
Speaker 2: it was when I was I don't remember being young.

668
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:31,719
Speaker 4: One weird thing about talking to high schoolers is as

669
00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 4: an older parent, I graduated high school forty years ago,

670
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 4: so it's not like a lot of the parents who

671
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:40,120
Speaker 4: were there, who graduated high school, you know, twenty some

672
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,320
Speaker 4: years ago. You can kind of remember it and relate

673
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:44,720
Speaker 4: to these people. I mean, life is so much different

674
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:46,719
Speaker 4: than when I went to high school. It's like being

675
00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 4: in a different planet. What if you were like really

676
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 4: tight warm up pants in a tank.

677
00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:56,879
Speaker 2: Top tank top and be a good look. I'm gonna

678
00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 2: give the there's the door speech. That's my plan. I'm

679
00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 2: going to walk in. There's the door. No, there's the door.

680
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:06,920
Speaker 1: You hear me? If you're not serious about this, there's

681
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:11,800
Speaker 1: the door. Oh wait, wow, you're making my skin crawl.

682
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 2: The whole class gets up. The whole class gets up

683
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:15,799
Speaker 2: and leaves. Cool.

685
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 4: a break or something. We'll go to the lunch room
