Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Getty arm Strong, and
Speaker 1: Jetty and he.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 3: A judge gave the man who attempted to assassinate Brett
Speaker 3: Kavanaugh only eight years in prison after he began identifying
Speaker 3: as a woman. You don't say, said the Menendez sisters.
Speaker 1: That's a good joke.
Speaker 2: That is a good joke.
Speaker 1: That's a well crafted joke. Yeah, I've got a question
Speaker 1: about upf's ultra processed foods. Joe has been trying to
Speaker 1: scarce about for quite some time. And I'm sure it's
Speaker 1: true that whenever you're eating something that's got a list
Speaker 1: of fifty ingredients, you can't have no idea what they are,
Speaker 1: that it's probably not good for you. And lately they've
Speaker 1: been saying that, like this is really really bad for us, right,
Speaker 1: Like this could be this could be a lot of
Speaker 1: what all our problems are obesity and health.
Speaker 2: This isn't it food addiction.
Speaker 1: But I often think in addition to all the ingredients,
Speaker 1: just stuff that's like sealed in a bag or whatever
Speaker 1: is probably that. But like the kettle chips, like the
Speaker 1: healthier potato chips. You get to look at the ingredients
Speaker 1: and it's just potatoes, oil, salt. That's the only thing
Speaker 1: on there. Does that mean it is an ultra processed
Speaker 1: or is it just a slightly better versionable because it's
Speaker 1: still in one of those bags sealed up that the
Speaker 1: food would stay fresh for the next one hundred and
Speaker 1: fifty years, which.
Speaker 4: Doesn't do those The more you know, basic down to
Speaker 4: earth potato chips, do they have that long shelf life?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know that either.
Speaker 2: Actually, it's all.
Speaker 4: Better for you than the ones that have a zillion
Speaker 4: ingredients chemicals and stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I actually bought some chips. I was watching the
Speaker 1: Tucker Carlson nine to eleven documentary that I assume is
Speaker 1: going to end up. It was the Jews. I haven't
Speaker 1: finished it yet, but Tucker was doing an endorsement, just
Speaker 1: like we do on the radio, for some healthy chip
Speaker 1: and I actually talked me into it. I bought someone.
Speaker 1: They come in the mail this week and I'll try
Speaker 1: them out. I'm all for trying to get away from
Speaker 1: that ultra process stuff. Eat eat way way frough. Been
Speaker 1: looking at my bread. It's hard to buy bread. Bread's
Speaker 1: a tough one because my experience has been if you
Speaker 1: buy bread that doesn't have a million ingredients, it's fresh
Speaker 1: for like a day. Either got to eat that day
Speaker 1: and make your sandwich or forget about it.
Speaker 4: I eat homemade whole grain bread because I'm better than you.
Speaker 4: And yeah, we keep it in the freezer because we
Speaker 4: have to. You you bring it out and let it
Speaker 4: thaw on the countertop if you're going to walk the
Speaker 4: dog or something like that, or pop it in the
Speaker 4: toaster for a minute, minute and a half just to
Speaker 4: get the you know, frostiness off of it. But yeah,
Speaker 4: you have to at least refrigerate it and probably freeze it.
Speaker 1: I don't know if I can plan that far ahead
Speaker 1: on my bread.
Speaker 2: If a minute, don't you just no, no, no, a minute?
Speaker 1: It takes it only takes a minute to thaw out
Speaker 1: your bread.
Speaker 2: Yeah, in a toaster? Sure, Oh, you totally in it
Speaker 2: and a half?
Speaker 1: Okay, yes, Michael, don't you just eat a white wonderbread
Speaker 1: and that's all you eat. That's generally what I've been eating.
Speaker 1: But I'm trying to get away from the ultra processed food,
Speaker 1: and bread's a tough one.
Speaker 2: I love sandwiches man, I think you'll be happy with it.
Speaker 4: So a little featurete here might have to go into
Speaker 4: the next segment, but that's fine. Politico was out with
Speaker 4: a report a private polling memo run by the DNC.
Speaker 4: I think one of their big consultant groups are pushing
Speaker 4: their candidates to go on the offense on crime ahead
Speaker 4: of the twenty twenty six mid terms because that's one
Speaker 4: of their weakest electoral issues, and that is I'm not
Speaker 4: sure exactly how they're going to go about that, but
Speaker 4: it was shared exclusively with Politico. The battle Ground District
Speaker 4: survey from Global Strategy Group nonprofit blah blah Blah offers
Speaker 4: a bleak assessment of Democrats. Starting point nine percent of
Speaker 4: the likely voters surveyed want their Congress member to take
Speaker 4: steps to keep them safe, but only thirty eight percent
Speaker 4: trust Democrats over Republicans with that task. Voters also reported
Speaker 4: preferring Republicans to Democrats with preventing and reducing crime and
Speaker 4: cracking down on violent crime, gaps that grew among swing voters,
Speaker 4: but the voters swung toward Democrats in all four categories
Speaker 4: after hearing messaging acknowledging crime is a problem and showing
Speaker 4: steps the party is taken to increase safety. Specifically, pollsters
Speaker 4: cited cracking down on gun trafficking and strengthening firearm background checks,
Speaker 4: and if you emphasize that the Democrats are doing that,
Speaker 4: the poll numbers change a lot. Plus the persuasion efforts
Speaker 4: include criticisms of GOP cuts to gun violence prevention funding,
Speaker 4: the Trump administration's attempts to roll back firearm regulations, and
Speaker 4: Republicans ties to pro gun groups. So the whole gun
Speaker 4: control thing is about to be one of the loudest
Speaker 4: issues in America again. But when you gave him just
Speaker 4: a little talking to, there was a double digit swing
Speaker 4: among voters. So they're going to be hammering on that apparently,
Speaker 4: and sending around the usual spate of speakers calling for
Speaker 4: gun control, which will never and has never squared with
Speaker 4: the Second Amendment. But they don't talk about that because
Speaker 4: they don't care. They just want to win the next election.
Speaker 1: Are you moving on from polling because I have an
Speaker 1: interesting poll thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good, go ahead.
Speaker 1: This was on CNN yesterday. This is about Trump's approval
Speaker 1: rating in general. This was on CNN again. They're pointing
Speaker 1: out that he's hanging around the mid forties. And I'll
Speaker 1: just quote the analyst they had on CNN as they
Speaker 1: had the numbers up on the board, Trump is basically
Speaker 1: doing what the American people thought that he was going
Speaker 1: to do. If you look at the numbers, Trump is
Speaker 1: basically the steadiest favorability rating at this point in the
Speaker 1: presidency of any president on record, and it's basically where
Speaker 1: he was a year ago, good enough to get him
Speaker 1: reelected at the time. All the news, almost all of
Speaker 1: it negative about Trump. He's just hung around forty three
Speaker 1: forty four percent, steadier than any president that has been
Speaker 1: recorded through the first nine months. And he was at
Speaker 1: this number when he got reelected. So that's pretty amazing.
Speaker 1: I don't know, it is amazing. I don't know if
Speaker 1: that's just because our dials are stuck regardless of who
Speaker 1: it is, or it's something special about Trump or whatever.
Speaker 2: But yeah, yeah, it's it's interesting.
Speaker 4: Nonetheless, So, speaking of crime, Jason Riley, brilliant columnist for
Speaker 4: the Wall Street Journal who wrote a great book, he
Speaker 4: just wrote another thing, a column about public housing and
Speaker 4: how miserable how the progressives insisted that the poor black
Speaker 4: neighborhoods be torn down in the fifties and sixties especially,
Speaker 4: literally torn down everybody given what the government said their
Speaker 4: place was worth, and then all put in giant public
Speaker 4: housing projects. That was the progressive solution to the black
Speaker 4: poverty problem. And I'd really like to get into this
Speaker 4: at length, but the one point he makes that is
Speaker 4: incredibly powerful is, Yeah, they gave him the minimum a
Speaker 4: judge would let them, the government give them for their properties.
Speaker 4: They missed out on every penny of future appreciation of
Speaker 4: the value of those properties. They lost their businesses. There
Speaker 4: was a great system of upward mobility within those black neighborhoods.
Speaker 4: There's like totally stunted upward mobility in the progressive designed
Speaker 4: public housing projects and the public financing thing. Anyway, that's
Speaker 4: a discussion for another day. But he wrote a couple
Speaker 4: of weeks ago, and I held on to it because
Speaker 4: it's so good. He's talking about policing and how more
Speaker 4: policing means less crime, and black people proportionately have way
Speaker 4: bigger benefits than any other people in America from more policing,
Speaker 4: not the opposite.
Speaker 2: It's great for them.
Speaker 4: And he talks about Brandon Johnson saying that we can't
Speaker 4: arrest our way out of poverty, and we need more
Speaker 4: affordable housing, not more police. And then Jason gets into
Speaker 4: my favorite part of this. That point of view is
Speaker 4: held widely on the left that crime can mostly be
Speaker 4: blamed on poverty. You hear it all the time in
Speaker 4: blue states. In this respect, it's the mayor's views that
Speaker 4: are out of touch. Not only are most poor people
Speaker 4: not criminals, but the most impoverished communities in the US
Speaker 4: are not the most violent. Further, violent crime was significantly
Speaker 4: lower in earlier eras when poor Americans were materially much
Speaker 4: worse off than they are today. If anything, more evidence
Speaker 4: points to crime driving poverty than the other way around.
Speaker 4: And this is the part that my god, I wish
Speaker 4: the Republican Party was any good at communicating with people.
Speaker 4: Merchants are more likely to abandon lawless neighborhoods.
Speaker 2: How many times have we seen that recently? All the
Speaker 2: damn time.
Speaker 4: Where operating costs are hire, taking employment opportunities and economic
Speaker 4: activity with them. As businesses leave, the tax based shrinks,
Speaker 4: property values decline, and public services suffer. In the forties
Speaker 4: and fifties, the homicide rate for black mails fell by
Speaker 4: double digits, and black incomes rose faster than white incomes.
Speaker 2: This is the forties and fifties.
Speaker 4: Safer neighborhoods are conducive to upward mobility, and police help
Speaker 4: keep neighborhoods safe. And then my favorite part is this,
Speaker 4: We are not going to eliminate crime or poverty anytime soon,
Speaker 4: but there are better and worse ways to address both.
Speaker 4: Family makeup and education play important roles in reducing social pathology.
Speaker 2: Cultural habits and attitudes matter.
Speaker 4: Single parent households were a minority of all Black households
Speaker 4: for most of the twentieth century. The welfare state expansion
Speaker 4: of the sixties and seventies, which subsidized irresponsible, self destructive behavior,
Speaker 4: led to social retrogressions that some Black communities still haven't
Speaker 4: recovered from more than fifty years later.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I have very strong opinions about this whole thing.
Speaker 1: I think the breakdown of the American family is the
Speaker 1: cause of tons of our problems. And nobody wants to
Speaker 1: talk about it because they feel like it be mean,
Speaker 1: or they're participating themselves.
Speaker 2: Or they're blaming the victim or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and nobody wants to talk about it. Hey, households
Speaker 1: to stay together, do way better kids do better, parents
Speaker 1: do better, everybody does better, neighborhood does better. It's just
Speaker 1: better all the way around. But that's not a popular
Speaker 1: thing to talk about.
Speaker 4: And then one of the last things Jason writes on
Speaker 4: this topic, he quotes our hero, the great thinker Thomas Sowell,
Speaker 4: another black man, what it's worth but soil remarked, when
Speaker 4: you take away stable families, decent schools, and safe streets,
Speaker 4: there's nothing left stable families, decent schools, and safe streets.
Speaker 4: How are the Democrats doing on those three things? I'll
Speaker 4: let you answer for yourself. It's good to talk about
Speaker 4: people would listen to. And Jason Riley, yeah, you know.
Speaker 4: And one final that we don't really have time for this,
Speaker 4: but a study has come out that there's there's an
Speaker 4: old saying among lefties that zip code is destiny.
Speaker 2: And it turns out that complete bunk.
Speaker 4: It all has to do with family, education and safety.
Speaker 1: What does that mean? Zip code is destinied that like
Speaker 1: where you were born, it determines your life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, Well, it's nice.
Speaker 4: It's a zip code is destiny, and that's the major
Speaker 4: source of inequality in the US. The rich stay rich,
Speaker 4: the poor stay poor, and you've got to get the
Speaker 4: poor kids, uh, you know, bust them to other neighborhoods
Speaker 4: and other schools and stuff like that, and some of
Speaker 4: that may be somewhat effective sometimes. But again, to your point,
Speaker 4: nobody wants to talk about the family.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a depressing topic but very very true. And
Speaker 1: there's a goodzillions of stats to back it all up.
Speaker 2: By the way, Yeah, it's funny.
Speaker 4: I don't find it depressing because there's a solution. It's
Speaker 4: when I don't see a solution that I get depressed. Now,
Speaker 4: getting people to actually talk about that solution in an
Speaker 4: honest way is going to be a hell of a battle, But.
Speaker 1: I'd say the solution. Is there any thoughts on that
Speaker 1: text line? Four one, five two nine KFTC.
Speaker 5: And some lebron fans feeling the letdown tonight After King
Speaker 5: James's highly anticipated.
Speaker 1: Announcement turned out to be an.
Speaker 5: Ad for a collaboration with Hennessy Koonyak, James tease the
Speaker 5: reveal yesterday, spending sending ticket prices for the Los Angeles
Speaker 5: Lakers final regular season home game skyrocketing. Has fans speculated
Speaker 5: he could announce his retirement.
Speaker 1: Yeah, kind of a silly little gimmick. But I was
Speaker 1: doing a little sports rating yesterday with the idea that
Speaker 1: this really signals that Lebron James is no longer the
Speaker 1: leader of the LA Lakers. It's Luka Doncics team now.
Speaker 1: Lebron is a role player, because that is not the
Speaker 1: sort of thing you do as the season is starting
Speaker 1: in just a few days. Pretend you're going to retire,
Speaker 1: have everybody on your team and the coach and management
Speaker 1: thinking what this is, and it turns out you're promoting
Speaker 1: something to make your richer. That's not cool.
Speaker 4: He must really just enjoy the challenge of building businesses.
Speaker 4: I mean, like your Lebron's James and you're George's Clooney
Speaker 4: that don't match any money yeah or never will yeah,
Speaker 4: but they just enjoy the challenge of it.
Speaker 1: I guess that's fine. But you can't on the eve
Speaker 1: of a new season. Hint, you're retiring just for fun
Speaker 1: to promote a product with your teammates, Like what, that's not.
Speaker 2: Cool unless you don't care anymore.
Speaker 1: Unless you don't care, you know, that's why it's not
Speaker 1: his team anymore. That's not his main focus anymore. I
Speaker 1: guess is the point different? LA story. This is wild,
Speaker 1: this is breaking news. They've arrested a guy and charged
Speaker 1: him with starting the deadly Palisades fire in California. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: which you know all along it's been talked about. It
Speaker 1: was lightning or whatever started all these fires. A man
Speaker 1: was arrested Tuesday, killed twelve people, destroyed a huge swath
Speaker 1: of some of the most expensive property and nicest property
Speaker 1: in America. Twenty nine year old idiot of Florida, Florida
Speaker 1: man was charged with destruction property by means of fire.
Speaker 1: If felon need it carries a up to a twenty
Speaker 1: year prison sentence. Should be more neat near his home
Speaker 1: in Florida. He was arrested scheduled to make his first
Speaker 1: appearance in court this coming Wednesday. It'll be interesting to
Speaker 1: hear what they actually have on him and why they
Speaker 1: think he did.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The Palisades Fire was began on January seventh last year,
Speaker 1: burned twenty three thousand acres, which is absolutely amazing.
Speaker 2: Well, in all the death, that's surely twenty years.
Speaker 4: No, he's got to be put away forever, or put
Speaker 4: him on the rack or something.
Speaker 1: Quartered I'll put him on the rack. That seems like
Speaker 1: a good idea. How much time by got Michael?
Speaker 2: Not about a minute thirty?
Speaker 1: So yesterday the other day, where am I all like
Speaker 1: a target or something like it? Beautiful sunny day, A
Speaker 1: Camaro pulls in windows down, ACDC, back in black, blasting
Speaker 1: out the windows. Oh yeah, and I told my teenage
Speaker 1: sons that exact thing has been happening since nineteen eighty one.
Speaker 1: A beautiful full spring day Camaro with its windows down,
Speaker 1: blasting back in black from ac DC. Correct, But that's
Speaker 1: wild that that was happening when I was their age,
Speaker 1: and it's still happening today.
Speaker 4: The hairstyle may have changed slightly, or the length of
Speaker 4: the person's socks.
Speaker 2: Other than that, everything's the same.
Speaker 1: Everything's exactly the same. You're doing it for the same reason,
Speaker 1: you're enjoying it in the same way, with the same
Speaker 1: male hormones and wants and needs flowing through your brain.
Speaker 4: And you know, I'm not big on nostalgia at all,
Speaker 4: but I have memories tied to when that album came
Speaker 4: out and the people I was hanging out with in
Speaker 4: the baseball team I played for, and how we would
Speaker 4: have beer soaked poker games and just listen to.
Speaker 2: That that album is just good times.
Speaker 1: You're not big on nostalgia. You don't like looking back
Speaker 1: fondly on things.
Speaker 2: Oh I do.
Speaker 4: I just I tend not too much, probably too little
Speaker 4: in the great in the words of the great Neil Peart,
Speaker 4: I let the past go too fast.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't want to revel in today, which is
Speaker 1: kind of sucky.
Speaker 2: I don't know. I try to make days less sucky
Speaker 2: and like good ish.
Speaker 1: Eh, we got we got, we got more, we got
Speaker 1: to get to so s take.
Speaker 2: It armstrong and getty.
Speaker 1: So yesterday was the anniversary, as you know, of two
Speaker 1: years ago October seventh, the the horror that Hamas unleashed
Speaker 1: on Israel, and for some people it was a moment
Speaker 1: to restate their allegiance to Hamas, particularly like the young
Speaker 1: college crowd across the country, with a number of fairly
Speaker 1: big demonstrations, a little frustrating, highly annoying. You come off
Speaker 1: as crazy people in many cases. You're about to hear
Speaker 1: one right now. So there's this guy named Nate Friedman,
Speaker 1: young Jewish man by the way, but he's got a
Speaker 1: popular YouTube channel where he interviews some of these idiots
Speaker 1: and exposes him for their idiocy. He comes across. I
Speaker 1: believe this was at the New York protest. New York
Speaker 1: had a pretty damn big Hamas support protest yesterday, which
Speaker 1: is troubling. Anyway, this particular guy was flying some sort
Speaker 1: of gaze for Hamas flag or.
Speaker 4: Something frans or Oh that was his flag?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Is that the one that's kind of pink and blue
Speaker 2: and brown?
Speaker 1: I must admit I don't keep up on that sort
Speaker 1: of thing. But Nate Friedman talked to the well, I
Speaker 1: guess it's a she because he says he's a transit. Anyway,
Speaker 1: he talked to the person.
Speaker 7: So is this this is the translag this is the
Speaker 7: Palestinian flag mixed with the pants? Okay, what do you
Speaker 7: say to those who say that trans people.
Speaker 8: Would be killed in Palestine?
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know about that, but I know
Speaker 6: that I'm standing here today. At least fifty percent of
Speaker 6: the guys in government needs to be trans women like
Speaker 6: Muhammad himself. Mohammad herself was head sacked a trans lesbian.
Speaker 8: Muhammad was a woman.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Islam is a trans idea, it's a trans religion.
Speaker 6: It Mohammad herself was a proud trans lesbian.
Speaker 7: And Iran the morality police, and and also in Gaza
Speaker 7: they kill trans people, Like do you think that that's
Speaker 7: not true?
Speaker 6: Or I mean I think they're secretly Jews if they
Speaker 6: do that. They because no Muslim would actually do that,
Speaker 6: like Islam is a gay religion.
Speaker 7: They asked, they asked Muslims in Gaza what you would
Speaker 7: do with trans people? They say they we don't have
Speaker 7: that here.
Speaker 6: We kill those people. I mean, I don't know, but
Speaker 6: that's why we need to protest harder. That we need
Speaker 6: at least fifty percent of the Palestinian government to be
Speaker 6: trans women.
Speaker 1: How do we make don't so you know, how many
Speaker 1: people does that person represent in terms of their intelligent
Speaker 1: knowledge of the subject, et cetera. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: think a lot larger than I'd be comfortable with me.
Speaker 1: But that guy shouldn't be involved in anything anything at all.
Speaker 4: Yeah, how do you feed yourself? How do you get
Speaker 4: through the day being that good nuts and ignorant? You know,
Speaker 4: there are more sophisticated versions of that. I would like
Speaker 4: to ask, you know, a less looney young queer or
Speaker 4: like transactivist about the whole You know, Islam is unbelievably
Speaker 4: intolerant and by the way, is in fundamentalist Islamic countries,
Speaker 4: they utterly reject the idea of the rights of women,
Speaker 4: I mean completely reject them.
Speaker 2: Doesn't that bother you?
Speaker 4: I'm sure they'd come out with some evasive answer to that,
Speaker 4: that their professor's taught them that that is just because
Speaker 4: of the colonialism that they suffered under or something.
Speaker 9: I suppose, right, I mean, the ability of human beings
Speaker 9: to ignore what is clearly true to cling to an
Speaker 9: ideology is amazing and terrifying.
Speaker 1: If you got best case scenario with Gaza, it's still
Speaker 1: not going to be a friendly place for the LGBTQ
Speaker 1: community almost certainly, no, and probably not much for women's rights.
Speaker 2: Certainly not no.
Speaker 1: I mean they've the last time they had an election,
Speaker 1: they voted for Hamas for crying out loud. Anyway, this
Speaker 1: guy wants fifty percent of the new Gaza government to
Speaker 1: be trans women.
Speaker 2: I mean, can I ask what about trans men? What
Speaker 2: the hell is going on here?
Speaker 1: What an odd request? Anyway, he goes on, how.
Speaker 8: Do we make that happen?
Speaker 6: I mean, we have to protest, we have to push
Speaker 6: put pressure on the Jews who control the world to
Speaker 6: make this happen, Like they own everything. We have to
Speaker 6: make this. Are you Jewish? No, I'm Italian and Muslim.
Speaker 8: So Jews own everything?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 1: How do you think?
Speaker 6: How do you think that happened?
Speaker 1: How did Jews start owning everything?
Speaker 6: I don't know. They use their dark magic. I guess like.
Speaker 7: I'm Jewish and I would like to have some magic,
Speaker 7: but I don't feel like I have any magic. How
Speaker 7: do you think I can access this dark magic?
Speaker 6: I don't know. If you're maybe using your magic on
Speaker 6: me right now?
Speaker 7: No, if I am the first time ever hearing about magic.
Speaker 6: Because we used to have like the thing where you
Speaker 6: would tie a stone to the leg of a witch
Speaker 6: and dunk her in the water, and if she floated,
Speaker 6: she was a witch.
Speaker 7: Should we do that with Jews?
Speaker 9: Yes?
Speaker 2: Okay?
Speaker 7: Should we do that with Jews across the whole world everywhere?
Speaker 6: And there's the other one where you're like, put the
Speaker 6: Bible on one scale and the jew on the other,
Speaker 6: and if they're lighter than the Bible, they're a witch.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right.
Speaker 4: So he's an interesting combination of he could only exist
Speaker 4: in the twenty first century and his attitudes are from
Speaker 4: the fourteenth century.
Speaker 2: What's going on.
Speaker 1: There right right?
Speaker 2: Which is drown dark magic in the Jews? What right?
Speaker 1: There has never been a point in history really where
Speaker 1: they were going to put up with the whole trans thing.
Speaker 1: But you are in favor of drowning witches.
Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no, you don't understand, sir. And
Speaker 4: I realize you're sporting a little lipstick. You're a dude. Look,
Speaker 4: be a gay dude, be an effeminate dude. You're a dude. Anyway,
Speaker 4: you understand when they taught you that at school, that
Speaker 4: was to point out how ludicrous it was.
Speaker 2: Stay with me.
Speaker 4: Now, if the person floated, they were a witch and
Speaker 4: they'd be put to death. What if they didn't float,
Speaker 4: they would drown and be dead? Does that not strike
Speaker 4: you as an odd judicial system?
Speaker 2: Now you go? Now you talk a bit seriously.
Speaker 1: So this guy's a half a nut, maybe three quarters
Speaker 1: of another might be a full ninety. But what he
Speaker 1: says in this next clip, if a white Southern drawled
Speaker 1: guy in a MAGA cap said, it would be national
Speaker 1: news and it caused Joe Biden to run for president.
Speaker 1: Listen to this, So we just kill all the Jews, though,
Speaker 1: I think so?
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, we need to throw Yeah, am I.
Speaker 7: I'm a zion I don't talk to about Well, we're we're,
Speaker 7: we're we're on YouTube too.
Speaker 6: Can I look up what you do on YouTube?
Speaker 1: But you need us having a conversation.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I'll do it later.
Speaker 7: So okay, so we should call a juics. How should
Speaker 7: we kill all the Jews?
Speaker 6: We should throw the Jew down the well so that
Speaker 6: my country at least can be free.
Speaker 1: So what is your country and what cher is their country?
Speaker 10: Well?
Speaker 6: America, America's the country, also Palestine.
Speaker 1: But also Palestine. He says, Okay, that's enough of this idiot.
Speaker 4: Well, not only would it be a white supremacist saying
Speaker 4: something horrific like that, it would be in the midst
Speaker 4: of a giant demonstration who agreed with him, that agreed
Speaker 4: with him.
Speaker 1: He just flat out said we should kill all the Jews.
Speaker 1: And that doesn't make national news or whatever because we
Speaker 1: just dismiss them as all other college kids. They don't
Speaker 1: know anything or what? Why Why did Charlottesville google it?
Speaker 1: If you don't remember it? Why was Charlotte'sville enough to
Speaker 1: make Joe Biden run for president? When I saw the
Speaker 1: hate in their eyes, the venom, when they are chanting,
Speaker 1: they will not replace us. I knew this country. I
Speaker 1: couldn't let this happen to my country. Why was that
Speaker 1: such a moment, a turning point in history for you?
Speaker 1: But all of these college and numbnuts flatly staying saying
Speaker 1: we need to kill all the Jews, Just well, what
Speaker 1: are you gonna do? Young people? You know how they are.
Speaker 4: You know, I'm flipping through the New York Times just
Speaker 4: looking for any coverage of any of the demonstrations in
Speaker 4: New York City calling for the death of Jews and
Speaker 4: the death of Israel and up with Islamic supremaciism.
Speaker 2: I'm looking for it in Vain. I'm not finding it in.
Speaker 1: New York, the biggest Jewish population in the world outside
Speaker 1: of Israel.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, nothing.
Speaker 1: Why are more Jewish people pressuring the New York Times
Speaker 1: and CBS News say hey, there are people on the
Speaker 1: street over there, like right outside the window. You can
Speaker 1: see them from here from Rockefeller Center, you can see him.
Speaker 1: They want me to be dead.
Speaker 2: It seems like a news story.
Speaker 4: Arab mediators believe Hamas could be open to partially disarming.
Speaker 4: That's like one of the first headlines on the whole topic.
Speaker 4: But nothing on the demonstrations.
Speaker 1: I think Israel should say back, We'll blow off your junk,
Speaker 1: just like we did with uh HESB. We'll blow your
Speaker 1: junk off, right, you want your junk blown off?
Speaker 2: Careful picking up your remote control? Yeah? Wow, Okay, I
Speaker 2: just it's frustrating.
Speaker 1: So do you have any idea, Like if I could
Speaker 1: ask Jakeem Jeffreys or some high level democrat on the left,
Speaker 1: why was Charlottesville a turning point in history? But these
Speaker 1: numb nuts? Fine? What would he say?
Speaker 4: Is he being honest in this scenario or is he
Speaker 4: being Hakeem Jeffrey's politician?
Speaker 1: Um?
Speaker 4: Because I could give you both versions, but well both
Speaker 4: the honest version.
Speaker 1: The honest one is pretty simple, I think.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the honest version was Charlottesville was a handful of
Speaker 4: numb nuts, but it gave us a great opportunity to
Speaker 4: portray Trump supporters and Republicans in general as racist bigots
Speaker 4: and get them on their their heels.
Speaker 2: So that was really really useful for us.
Speaker 4: This one's not a lot of these people are our allies,
Speaker 4: So no, we're not gonna call them out.
Speaker 2: Were you? And I follow up?
Speaker 4: So, do you actually think Charlottesville was those half wits?
Speaker 4: Was like a significant movement. He'd say, oh no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 4: they're just super useful.
Speaker 2: For us politically.
Speaker 1: That means it's disappoint that's a disappointing answer.
Speaker 4: Well, wake up, grow up, grow up and wait, or
Speaker 4: wake up first and grow up and understand. That's what
Speaker 4: politics is these lions. It's like that Jay Jones monster
Speaker 4: running for Attorney General in Virginia who openly espouses violence
Speaker 4: against Republicans because only when they suffer personally and watch
Speaker 4: their children die in their arms will they be ready
Speaker 4: to change policies. This guy's serious about this, and the
Speaker 4: Democratic Party is with them for Attorney General of Virginia.
Speaker 1: I don't know. You don't want to grow up first?
Speaker 1: Then wake up? Wake up, then grow up?
Speaker 2: Well, you'd hate to miss your formative years being asleep.
Speaker 1: Wake up, grow Do you take anything to sleep, melatonein
Speaker 1: or anything like that?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: No, well, yes, Scotch, that's a good that's that's a
Speaker 1: pretty accurate true answer. I guess yeah, because you're not
Speaker 1: that played a role in going to sleep at night.
Speaker 2: Definitely, yeah, it does. Absolutely, it doesn't do any good
Speaker 2: for your quality your sleep.
Speaker 1: That's twy you dismissed moment like, oh god, no.
Speaker 2: What taken something for sleep? I didn't. I don't dismiss it.
Speaker 2: I just I never have. I haven't needed to.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I take a tiny amount, like a
Speaker 1: tiny amount, but I think I really think I've just
Speaker 1: convinced myself that it plays a role. I'm not sure
Speaker 1: it doesn't anything.
Speaker 2: It doesn't do any.
Speaker 1: Yes, Katie, I've started.
Speaker 10: I've actually had to start taking unism and it works
Speaker 10: like a charm for me.
Speaker 1: I don't know that. I thought that was a charity
Speaker 1: that helped hungry children. What is Unison.
Speaker 10: It's just an over the counter sleep aid and I
Speaker 10: started actually taking it about five days ago and it's
Speaker 10: working wonderfully.
Speaker 1: What's it got in it?
Speaker 6: Uh?
Speaker 1: I mean sleep juice.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 4: Judy was taken or doctor our general care what do
Speaker 4: you call it? Primary care? Doctor recommended a little benadryl
Speaker 4: and she was doing that for a while and it
Speaker 4: worked great.
Speaker 2: Then it kind of stopped working.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 2: The classic your kid is, you know, overtired and needs
Speaker 2: to go to sleep. Here you take it or take
Speaker 2: a little sip of that.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it contains things that I can't pronounce, but it
Speaker 10: is non habit forming which I was a big fan of.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: My only problem with that is there's a lot of
Speaker 1: things they've claimed throughout the years or non habit forming,
Speaker 1: but they absolutely are habit forming, whether physically or psychologically.
Speaker 2: Luckily, alcohol is not one of those.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Well, like the melatonin things, it seems like reasonable
Speaker 1: that it would make sense that, like if you took
Speaker 1: three milligrams and it made you drowsy, six milligrams would
Speaker 1: make you drowsy year And I was under that. I
Speaker 1: just was assuming that along. Then we got an email
Speaker 1: from a doctor a while back said no, no, it's
Speaker 1: a weird thing about like if you cross a line,
Speaker 1: it does you more harm than good. It keeps you awake.
Speaker 1: You want to take a tiny amount. So that's when
Speaker 1: I started taking to take like one and a half
Speaker 1: milligrams or something, which is barely anything, and in my mind,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it does anything.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, when I was a baby in Italy, uh,
Speaker 4: the Italian parents, if the kid had teething pain, they
Speaker 4: would dip their finger in their wine and the kid
Speaker 4: would like suck the wine off the finger. It's a
Speaker 4: tiny amount, but it helped his painkiller and the kid
Speaker 4: would be like, you know what I'm turning in.
Speaker 1: That's what Bill Cosby was doing to his dates. Wasn't
Speaker 1: it that sort of the sleep juice? That's that's what
Speaker 1: you need. I need something with some sleep juice in it.
Speaker 1: The steepification came up Jackson, the jack go waging in
Speaker 1: one stayed asleep and has been asleep for quite some time.
Speaker 1: Now we will finish strong next. You know, we haven't done.
Speaker 1: You know, I was just look at our list of things.
Speaker 1: We haven't played. We haven't listened to the elderly protesters
Speaker 1: singing this land is your land in Portland. I haven't
Speaker 1: heard this yet. How this sounds? Can we hear that?
Speaker 8: That is twelve Michael, So.
Speaker 1: You know, the worst thing that happened in America, It
Speaker 1: was a great thing that happened America. Civil rights movement
Speaker 1: was fantastic. It was the right thing needed to happen,
Speaker 1: good result. But the fact that it worked with the
Speaker 1: help of hippies has led everybody to believe that that's
Speaker 1: the answer to causing social change. It wasn't that this
Speaker 1: is clearly something that needed to happen. You know, majority
Speaker 1: of people came around to what obviously you know, fit
Speaker 1: in with our the way we believe America to be
Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah blah blah. It wasn't because of
Speaker 1: the songs, or the chanting, or the or the sandals.
Speaker 1: It wasn't because of those things. Those are the beards.
Speaker 1: The beards, those elements don't need to be present to
Speaker 1: cause social change. I would argue the banjo was an
Speaker 1: impediment to social justice exactly, not a cause of it. Yes, exactly,
Speaker 1: we got civil rights despite the banjo, not because of
Speaker 1: the banjo. That's what we need to learn.
Speaker 4: I'm with Christy nome Klipsas sixty two, Michael, come on,
Speaker 4: hit it, come on speak truth to power. Course.
Speaker 11: One of the things I've been dealing with all day
Speaker 11: here in Portland is a bunch of pansies that are
Speaker 11: elected into political office who won't make a decision to
Speaker 11: keep their citizens safe. This mayor is gonna wait until
Speaker 11: somebody gets violently hurt or killed. He's gonna have blood
Speaker 11: on his hands because he sat around and thought too long,
Speaker 11: because he's too scared of the political ramifications of making
Speaker 11: a big decision to keep his city safe.
Speaker 2: It actually does sound pretty accurate.
Speaker 1: We say this is an interesting time and I got
Speaker 1: a lot more on that, but Portland will still be
Speaker 1: what it is tomorrow. Talk about it. Then, I suppose final.
Speaker 8: Thought we flashy wow you before that song?
Speaker 1: Oh the entire show usually Oh I am I have attention,
Speaker 1: but that song makes me Lord, here's your this is arrestment,
Speaker 1: this is all go down hr together. Here's the holds
Speaker 1: for final thoughts, Joe Getty.
Speaker 4: Let's get a final thought from everybody and the crew
Speaker 4: to wrap up the show. How about Michael Angelower, technical
Speaker 4: director leading us off.
Speaker 2: Michael, Well, Jack's comments just made me forget my final thoughts.
Speaker 2: So all I know is it is Prime Day and
Speaker 2: it was something about a Christmas list.
Speaker 1: It's Prime Day. Yeah, today's Prime Day. I don't know
Speaker 1: what that means. I've seen it in Amazon Prime YEP.
Speaker 1: A bunch of discounts.
Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, we make people pay for commercials. My
Speaker 4: Katie Green are s themed Newswoman. As a final thought, Katie, we.
Speaker 10: Used to call people pansies all the time when I
Speaker 10: was in high school, and I'm bringing it back that
Speaker 10: she just reminded.
Speaker 1: Me of how great of a slam that is. Pansy's
Speaker 1: a pretty good term.
Speaker 2: That's a great term.
Speaker 4: There are a lot of terms I'm stealing, Jack Slot.
Speaker 4: There are a lot of terms that we were told
Speaker 4: for years are racist or bigoted, or impolite or rude
Speaker 4: or whatever we shouldn't use. And you know, I tend
Speaker 4: to be a polite person in real life, but now
Speaker 4: calling it like it is, I don't care who I offend.
Speaker 4: Here on out brace yourselves, Jack.
Speaker 1: Final thought, I kind of did mine. It was come
Speaker 1: in on my engorgement or.
Speaker 4: Black there over crying out Michael, why do you have
Speaker 4: an off button for his microphone?
Speaker 1: I'm strong, wrapping up another grueling for our work to
