WEBVTT - BJs... If You Will 0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:14.800 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 0:00:14.880 --> 0:00:19.880 George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty Armstrong 0:00:19.960 --> 0:00:20.880 and Jettie and. 0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:38.920 Arms from studio ce Ce Signor, a dimly lit room 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:41.159 deeper than the bowels. 0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:46.279 Of the Armstrong in Getty Communications Compound. And hey y'all, midweek, 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:51.960 we're under the two ledge of our general manager Shared values, 0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.120 as in, do we have any anymore? You've gone on 0:00:55.360 --> 0:00:59.680 OPRAH with the general managers? Yeah, you know, I have guilty. 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:05.959 I said, nothing just jumped out, especially today Today's Shared Value, 0:01:06.040 --> 0:01:09.360 so which is very nice. It's a nice it's a 0:01:09.440 --> 0:01:13.520 nice impulse, charitable of you to say thank you. Yes, Yeah, 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:15.080 I just nothing. Nothing leapt out. 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.280 In particular, I could have gone with Daniel Penny, who 0:01:17.319 --> 0:01:21.640 did an interview with Judge Janine of all people, but 0:01:22.160 --> 0:01:24.560 it was actually quite good and compelling, and we'll have 0:01:24.600 --> 0:01:25.360 some clips. 0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:26.839 For you a little bit later on. Yeah, I gotta 0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:28.960 tell you I've been having I having trouble with this 0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:33.440 the last twenty four hours from the experience I had 0:01:33.520 --> 0:01:38.720 with a person very very much like the guy Penny 0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:42.600 ended up choking to death, coming on to my kids 0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:45.880 and me and my family one night, and maybe I'll 0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.560 retell that story later, just because it was so similar, 0:01:48.560 --> 0:01:52.200 and I mean, it was just this close, and I 0:01:52.240 --> 0:01:54.440 think about it way too often. I don't think about 0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:55.880 it every day, but I think about it a lot. 0:01:55.960 --> 0:01:57.600 In the last week or so, I've been thinking about 0:01:57.600 --> 0:02:01.400 it every day. And so I heard the Daniel Penny 0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:03.120 interview and he has talking about how he would have 0:02:03.160 --> 0:02:05.320 been able to live with himself if if the guy 0:02:05.560 --> 0:02:07.880 had hurt somebody and he hadn't done anything about it. 0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:11.519 And so I've gone back and forth over the last 0:02:11.520 --> 0:02:15.560 however many years, it's been of you know, did I overreact, 0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:18.400 did I underreact? All that sort of stuff. And I'm 0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:21.760 thinking I probably should have put my hands on the 0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:27.720 guy and not just hoped that he didn't do anything. 0:02:27.800 --> 0:02:29.560 I was between him and my kids. But if he 0:02:29.600 --> 0:02:32.600 had moved fast, how would I been able to stop him? 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:35.519 I don't know, right, And God dang it, I hope 0:02:35.520 --> 0:02:37.200 you never end up in that situation. One of the 0:02:37.240 --> 0:02:39.560 reasons that so many of us end up in those 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:43.200 situations is we have so many dangerous, freaking people on 0:02:43.240 --> 0:02:46.600 the streets of our cities, correct and so you end 0:02:46.680 --> 0:02:48.120 up in a situation where you have to make a 0:02:48.200 --> 0:02:53.760 judgmentcall of do I instigate this and suffer whatever consequences 0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:57.240 might occur in a blue state or blue city because 0:02:57.280 --> 0:03:00.280 I'm afraid right now for me or my kids, Or 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:05.120 do I wait until they stab, shoot, punch a woman, 0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:07.640 a kid or whatever and then try to subdue them. 0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:11.400 Horrible situation to be in, but it's much more likely 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:14.560 when you got thousands upon thousands of these people walk 0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:18.400 in the streets. The guy that I was involved with 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:20.079 ended up. He had. 0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.400 Smashed a woman's face in a drive through in a McDonald's, 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:27.720 then beating up paramedics, and he'd done this in different states, 0:03:27.760 --> 0:03:31.000 and bet let go in blue states and travel around 0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:31.320 the country. 0:03:31.360 --> 0:03:34.560 He was exactly the same sort of guy as this. Yeah, 0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.000 and you know, God to help you again that you're 0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:38.920 never in that situation because you got to figure out 0:03:39.120 --> 0:03:41.360 what do I do here? Do I actually fight this 0:03:41.400 --> 0:03:43.600 person and then good? 0:03:43.680 --> 0:03:47.440 Then good luck, especially as a public figure like me, 0:03:47.800 --> 0:03:51.080 So I'm fighting a homeless person, he gets hurt. Imagine 0:03:51.080 --> 0:03:53.640 how that could be portrayed in the news, right, especially 0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:56.280 if he was physically smaller than you or something like that, 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.680 or he was a noted, you know, Michael Jackson in 0:04:00.320 --> 0:04:03.240 or something right, right, they produced one picture of them 0:04:03.280 --> 0:04:06.160 looking gentle and innocent, and it could be a nightmare. 0:04:06.280 --> 0:04:08.640 Yeah, but I'm gonna read some of the stuff that 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:12.320 was put out yesterday about this guy that Pennin choked 0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.920 out and his background and some of the things people 0:04:14.960 --> 0:04:17.520 are saying about him now. And the fund that is 0:04:17.560 --> 0:04:21.080 being a gather to go fund me to raise money 0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:23.960 for some sort of statue or fund or scholarship or 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:28.279 whatever for this guy who lived a life of scumbaggery right, 0:04:28.760 --> 0:04:30.560 reminds me of George Floyd exactly. 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:32.599 He didn't deserve to die, but the idea that it 0:04:32.640 --> 0:04:36.279 was some sort of hero is just ridiculous. It's astounding. 0:04:36.560 --> 0:04:40.120 I don't know. But we allow these to thing, we 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:41.760 allow these people to be on the streets. There's gonna 0:04:41.839 --> 0:04:45.320 this is gonna happen more, not less. Oh yeah, absolutely, Yeah. 0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:48.840 What really really galls me is the inability or unwillingness 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.720 to tell the truth about this so called homeless situation. 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:54.520 Elon Musk Ashley if all people just had an excellent 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:56.400 tweet about it to describing it, and we'll get to 0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:59.039 that in a little bit. But the I've got to 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.200 believe either it's that ideology is so clouded the minds 0:05:02.200 --> 0:05:05.000 of people on the left, or there's so much damn 0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:08.920 money being made you cannot get them to say out 0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:12.680 loud it's primarily a drug addiction problem. The so called 0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:19.880 homeless problem is in vast measure a drug problem. We're 0:05:19.960 --> 0:05:23.240 not people who were working hard and paying the rent 0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.400 and then they had one medical pill and then they're 0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:27.440 out and they can't afford housing. I mean, there are 0:05:27.520 --> 0:05:29.480 people like that, and I'm more than happy to help them, 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:31.640 but the vast majority. 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:34.200 Are a drug addict. The percentages are high enough of 0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:36.599 it being a drug problem that it did to be 0:05:36.640 --> 0:05:39.000 perfectly okay to only refer to it as a drug 0:05:39.040 --> 0:05:42.320 problem and not refer to it as an almost problem at all. Exactly. Yeah, 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:44.440 why are we doing the inverse of the truth. 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:47.159 It's like, you know, I'm always railing about letting the 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:50.200 left define the language that you use. We ought to 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.320 be calling them drug addicts, and if ten to fifteen 0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:56.640 percent are not, then you throw the caveat in. 0:05:57.320 --> 0:06:02.000 We really should come up with a a societal decision 0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:08.000 on this. Mentally ill, okay, if you if you're mentally 0:06:08.000 --> 0:06:10.240 ill because you use so many drugs, or you use 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:13.320 so many drugs your brain no longer works. What is that? 0:06:13.920 --> 0:06:15.760 What are we gonna call that? What are we gonna 0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.479 do with those people? So I heard you'll not let 0:06:18.560 --> 0:06:20.800 them run around on the streets hurting people for for 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:26.200 certain I heard, uh, one of the best analogies I've 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.520 ever heard on this. Yesterday I was listening to the 0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:32.160 National Review podcast. Rich Lowry said, can you imagine if 0:06:32.160 --> 0:06:35.480 we let people with Alzheimer's just walk wander the streets? 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:39.599 Oh? Great point, and said, well, you know they have Alzheimer's. 0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:42.440 It's not our job, to our business to put them 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:45.320 in a home. What are we gonna against the is 0:06:45.520 --> 0:06:48.479 what is what is the literal difference between somebody with 0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:51.920 Alzheimer's or a different kind of mental illness caused by 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.880 doing too much meth where they can't take care of themselves. 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:57.200 Tell me what the difference is. But there's no way 0:06:57.279 --> 0:07:01.040 you'd let somebody with Alzheimer's just wander the streets. Yeah, 0:07:01.120 --> 0:07:01.640 it's a shame. 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:05.560 It's it's troubling because there's no constituency, there's no lobbyist 0:07:05.640 --> 0:07:08.000 for the mentally ill. They can't bribe any Congress people 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.240 to find a way to thread the needle. And it's 0:07:12.240 --> 0:07:15.480 a difficult needle. Of the asylums of the past, with 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:20.760 their excesses and their abuses, nobody disagrees that they had problems. 0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.640 But then this progressive view that took hold in the 0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:25.840 sixties that we don't need those anymore because the drugs 0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:29.400 are miraculous, the mental illness drugs, And so I'll give 0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:29.920 them lithium. 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.880 They'll be great. We're gonna close all the mental hospitals. 0:07:31.960 --> 0:07:34.880 We'll just open a center on this corner, in this 0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:38.520 street corner, and people go. It failed miserably, completely miserably. 0:07:38.800 --> 0:07:41.480 But and this may ring a bell. Having instituted a 0:07:41.480 --> 0:07:45.360 government program that failed miserably, it remains in effect. 0:07:46.640 --> 0:07:50.240 Yeah, anyway, we've got a lot from that Daniel Penny interview, 0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:53.200 which is pretty darned interesting. So join me. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:56.760 Please, no more use in the term homeless bums and junkies. 0:08:01.280 --> 0:08:03.600 DJs, if you will. So we got a lot more 0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:06.240 on that later. What is the other big story that 0:08:06.280 --> 0:08:09.320 I wanted to mention? Oh, how about how about Israel? 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.480 So Syria used to have a military, Like four days ago, 0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:16.160 Syria had a navy, an army, and an air force. 0:08:16.400 --> 0:08:19.760 Today they got none of those. They got no air bases, 0:08:20.040 --> 0:08:22.200 they got no ships. They're all at the bottom of 0:08:22.560 --> 0:08:25.800 some body of water over there. I don't know my geography. 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.440 Army disappeared and all the stuff that the army had 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:33.920 has all been blown up. Five hundred air strikes from 0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:38.280 Israel since Sunday has completely destroyed the Syrian military. Isn't 0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:38.760 that something? 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.439 It is amazing Israel calculating that, Hey, if the lunatics 0:08:42.480 --> 0:08:44.520 take charge, we don't want them to have access to 0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:47.040 these weapons, So goodbye weapons. 0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:51.080 Wow. Yeah, I wonder if we're in favor of that 0:08:51.200 --> 0:08:54.160 or helping them out on that. We might be wrong. 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:55.959 We might be giving them all the coordinates for all 0:08:56.000 --> 0:08:56.200 I know. 0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:00.360 Oh probably yeah, yeah, Although with Biden you never or no, 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:02.920 and this will be my final thought. Then we probably 0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:07.120 ought to start the show officially because Biden's FCC is 0:09:07.120 --> 0:09:12.440 still in charge and they are draconian. Uh Iran, who 0:09:12.520 --> 0:09:19.760 unleashed Hamas on October seventh, may have absolutely sowed the 0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:22.600 seeds of their own undoing Amalas. 0:09:22.120 --> 0:09:25.240 And soon maybe could be more on that later. So 0:09:25.320 --> 0:09:27.680 let's start the show officially. As Joe said, I'm Jack Armstrong. 0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:29.679 He's Joe Getty on this. It is Wednesday. We're two 0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.400 weeks from Christmas today. I got to remind myself of this. 0:09:32.640 --> 0:09:35.960 You gotta quit screwing around man. Time is up. Gotta 0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:38.120 get your shopping done. Stop yelling at me. I'm yelling 0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.840 at me. All right, Oh god, I gotta get my 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:44.680 act together. They're twenty twenty four. We are armstrong. 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.360 Seriously, seriously, what was the first and name of the 0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:50.040 year you've first uttered that sentence to yourself? 0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:53.800 I was eight, Probably we are armstrong. You're getting we 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:55.760 approve of this program? Yeah, me too. 0:09:55.840 --> 0:09:58.679 All right, here we go officially according to FCC rules regulations. 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.000 This is exciting, isn't it. Let's start at Mark. 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:02.560 I love company holiday parties. 0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.679 You get to be with people that you work with 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:08.120 all day long for more hours, and you get to 0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.760 say I love your ugly Christmas sweater and they're like, 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:13.400 that's just my sweater. And you get to be like, hey, 0:10:13.440 --> 0:10:16.440 remind me, do you go buy Steve or Steven? And 0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:19.560 he's like it's Mark, And your boss tries to crack 0:10:19.559 --> 0:10:23.520 a joke and everyone around them does the employment laughter, Like. 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:29.680 There's more to that bit too. 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:36.880 Employment oh that's clever stuff. Oh we haven't had Paul Tarro. 0:10:37.440 --> 0:10:39.640 We haven't had a real Christmas party in years. I 0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:40.160 miss him. 0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:41.880 Actually before the show we were talking about it and 0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:43.680 everybody was thankful, but we don't have them. But I 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:46.800 miss him. I think it's good for the camaraderie. It 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:51.280 changes everything, you know, that couple of hours of getting 0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:53.400 together and having a few drinks and meeting the wife 0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:55.440 or meeting the husband or whatever and talking to them 0:10:55.480 --> 0:10:58.800 about something other than work. Right, Yeah, I would agree. 0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.400 It was always one of those man we've got to go, honey, 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:02.959 are you and then you get there and it's fun. 0:11:03.480 --> 0:11:04.800 Uh, you're right because we. 0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.600 Used to work with a lot of really cool, creative 0:11:07.679 --> 0:11:12.280 people and the Christmas party somewhat oh yeah, yeah, real ravers. 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.040 I's around some people last couple of days who had 0:11:15.080 --> 0:11:17.439 these great Christmas parties they were telling stories about and 0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.839 I thought, oh, yeah, that still happened someplaces.

It's from C. S. 0:12:10.600 --> 0:12:14.400 Lewis in his fabulous book That Hate, Hideous Strength, from 0:12:14.400 --> 0:12:18.280 the antagonist, Why you fool?

He buys his paper for the 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.240 football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out 0:12:32.240 --> 0:12:34.600 of windows and the corpses found in Mayfair flats. 0:12:34.880 --> 0:12:37.240 He is our problem. We have to recondition him. 0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:39.720 But the educated public, the people who read the high 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:43.480 brow weeklies, they don't need reconditioning. They're right, they're all right, 0:12:43.960 --> 0:12:45.959 all right already.
