1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the 2 00:00:05,760 --> 00:00:10,800 Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty, arm Strong 3 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:18,360 Speaker 1: and Getty and now he Armstrong and Getty. 4 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: For anyone that is taking the bait tonight, stop. 5 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,760 Speaker 1: That is not helpful, go home. 6 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 2: We cannot counter Donald Trump's chaos with our own brand 7 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:40,279 Speaker 2: of chaos. 8 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: And I have seen thousands. 9 00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 2: Of people throughout our city peacefully protesting. For those that 10 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,159 Speaker 2: have peacefully protested, I applaud you. For those that are 11 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,320 Speaker 2: taking the bait, you are not helping and you are 12 00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,040 Speaker 2: not helping the undocumented immigrants in our city. 13 00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,040 Speaker 1: So it's that mayor of Minneapolis who I believe he 14 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: feels like he's becoming a rock star, and he does 15 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: a really good job of putting the product in that 16 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,720 Speaker 1: kind of cowlic on the front to make it just perfect. 17 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: Adolescent Jacob Fry correct, Yes, but is it taking the 18 00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: bait to attack an ice officer with a snowshovel? 19 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 3: Is that taking the bait? Well, I totally get your point. 20 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:26,759 Speaker 1: He, you know, kind of whitewashed what's happening and blamed 21 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,400 Speaker 1: the other side, which we discussed yesterday. It's a classic 22 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: progressive thing. You turned the victim into the perpetrator. Blah 23 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: blah blah. But I think he was right and smart 24 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:41,679 Speaker 1: in what he was saying. Look what he was trying 25 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 1: to say is don't impede the officers, don't block them 26 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: with your car, don't attack them, stop it, you idiots. 27 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 1: From a purely political point of view, he's right. Any 28 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 1: sympathy that would have been gained by peaceful protesting has 29 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: been lost by these people clearly interfering with law enforcement. 30 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: Year I haven't heard any in the last eighteen hours 31 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 1: since this happened dispute that this was a Venezuelan illegal 32 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,480 Speaker 1: gang member the latest shooting if you're not familiar with that, 33 00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: that they tried to apprehend and then he took off 34 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: in his car luckily didn't kill anybody, crashed the car. 35 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,919 Speaker 1: Then when they're trying to apprehend him, a couple of 36 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: people run out of their house. I don't know who. 37 00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: These people were attacking the ice officer with a shovel 38 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:25,560 Speaker 1: and a broom handle. At that point, the officer is 39 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 1: going to have to defend himself somehow. And then somebody 40 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 1: got shot in the leg, and the ice officer and 41 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 1: the illegal Venezuelan are in the hospital right right, So 42 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: getting back to the whole don't take the bait thing, 43 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:45,080 Speaker 1: and this is a perfect situation, the whole Minnesota thing 44 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 1: and the shooting of that they're in a good woman 45 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:51,000 Speaker 1: and the rest of it, where if everybody could calm 46 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,519 Speaker 1: down a little bit and grant, okay, maybe we could 47 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: ratchet this down. Maybe we could talk to you about this, 48 00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: Maybe you guys could cooperate with us here. You know, 49 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 1: we'd all probably be better off than constantly ratcheting things up. 50 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 1: But I think this is absolutely sociologically one of the 51 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: most interesting aspects of this. And I'm going to quote 52 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: Kat Rosenfeld, who wrote is at Felderfield Rosenfield, who writes 53 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,639 Speaker 1: for the Free Press. And it occurs to me that 54 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 1: there are some of my favorite thinkers. Several of my 55 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: favorite thinkers are women. So anybody ever thinks that, you know, 56 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:30,200 Speaker 1: when we talk about women's tendency to substitute their instinctive 57 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 1: caring mechanisms instead of for babies to illegal immigrant gang bangers, 58 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: that for somehow demeaning women. It's not true. I think 59 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: women are wonderful and complicated and the rest of it. 60 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: But Cat Rosenfield is brilliant, and she writes that she, 61 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 1: like everybody, has watched videos of the Good incident, the 62 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 1: Renee Good incident, she says, but much more than the 63 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:58,880 Speaker 1: part where she gets killed. She has watched the parts 64 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: where she was alive, alive over and over again. The 65 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:04,480 Speaker 1: part that fascinates me and haunts me happens earlier, that 66 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: final fleeting moment, just before the car moves forward and 67 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 1: shots ring out. It's the last thing Renee Nicole Good 68 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: would have heard apart from the crack of the gun, 69 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: A familiar voice raised in a defiant cheer. 70 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 3: Drive, Baby Drive. 71 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:19,720 Speaker 1: The speaker of these words is Rebecca Good, Renee Good's wife, 72 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,040 Speaker 1: who can be seen in the video standing in outside 73 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: the car, filming the immigration people, etc. We've all seen 74 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,680 Speaker 1: it in the aftermath, is shooting a blurry image circulating 75 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 1: on social media, Rebecca sitting on the icy curb with 76 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: her dog, slumped in grief and horror, covered in blood. 77 00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 1: This is a woman who just made what is probably 78 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: the worst mistake of her life. Almost certainly, and unlike 79 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: Renee Good, will have to live with it. And then 80 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: she gets into the fact that Rebecca's last words to 81 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: her wife would become a rarer shock test that sorts. 82 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 1: An ice agent had already told Good to get out 83 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:52,120 Speaker 1: of her car, making drive baby drive an act of 84 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: explicit non compliance. On the right, comentitor seized on this 85 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,520 Speaker 1: as a particularly potent, if tragic example of just what 86 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: happens when resistance liberal fooling around turns into finding out. 87 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: Including Christy Nome, we all remember what she said on left. Meanwhile, 88 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: the fact that Good was trying to drive away only 89 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 1: added fuel to the fire of the existing outrage. Since 90 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: when is a summary execution considered an appropriate penalty for 91 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: failing to comply, especially for a thirty seven year old 92 00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,360 Speaker 1: mom in an SUV who committed no crime. And isn't 93 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: this America or protesting authoritarian tyranny is kind of our birthright. 94 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: The notion that Good would be able to drive away 95 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 1: from the scene just as easily as she drove into it, 96 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: and that the armed agents commanding her to exit a 97 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 1: vehicle could be safely ignored, is as understandable as it 98 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: is misguided. And here's where she gets to her point. 99 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: The product of a world in which activism and political 100 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:47,680 Speaker 1: conflict had become disneyfied what was once an organized, strategic 101 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: movement with high stakes and concrete political aims, has evolved 102 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: today into sort of an intermural sport for all comers, 103 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: from influencers to wine moms to aging boomers who prefer 104 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: protest marches to pickleball, and if the ease of participation 105 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 1: has swelled the ranks of activists to include anyone with 106 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 1: an Instagram account. It is also given the entire enterprise 107 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 1: a distinct veneer of unreality, like a theme park populated 108 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: by actors who spend their days LARPing as cops or cowboys, 109 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: then retire at night to a dorm where they eat 110 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 1: pizza and hook up with a guy who plays their nemesis. 111 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: In twenty twenty six, political protest, even political violence might 112 00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: feel like a party or a movie. But the one 113 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: thing it rarely feels is serious. And still it's too late. 114 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 1: Then you know, I don't want to read all day. 115 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: But one of the last things she mentions in this 116 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: section is that the grieving wife, covered with blood reportedly 117 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,360 Speaker 1: screamed after good was shot, why do you have real bullets? 118 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: The notion that ICE agents would have anything but real 119 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: bullets in their guns may seem astonishing, but it surely 120 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,119 Speaker 1: speaks to a Renee Good, an ordinary woman in middle 121 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:58,599 Speaker 1: aged soul surviving parent, ended up behind the wheel of 122 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: a car in the middle of the engaged in a confrontation, 123 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: the true stakes of which she's so devastatingly misapprehended. 124 00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 3: Quit your radical LARPing. 125 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's the most interesting thing I've heard 126 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: in the last week about all this stuff, because I 127 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: think it's really really true. It seems like a show 128 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 1: on television, and then you want to be part of 129 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: the show. And then if you sit there with a 130 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: bunch of people with guns at some point and you're 131 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: blocking them in, which is we talked about the other day, 132 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: you can't block in cops because that's how an ambush happens, 133 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 1: and they have to take it that way. Yeah. Yeah, 134 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: And because we're not about clickbaiting or anger you know 135 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 1: what do you call it anger feeding around here? I 136 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 1: just want I want America to be great and free 137 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 1: and people to be happy in the economy to be good. 138 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: Kevin Williamson, who's another brilliant guy and a great writer. 139 00:07:56,360 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 1: He's a good old Texas conservative, very libertarian bench. He 140 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 1: writes for The Dispatch. These days, he's written for a 141 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 1: bunch of conservative islets. He wrote a column I think 142 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 1: it was yesterday that was absolutely murderously critical of militarized policing. 143 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 1: He hates it. His premise, which hanging over simplify, is 144 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: that if you dress people like the military and equip 145 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,240 Speaker 1: them like the military, they're going to start acting like 146 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: the military. Do we want militarized police enforcement except where 147 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 1: it's extremely necessary. We talked about this years ago when 148 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 1: some of the small towns around here were for a 149 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: variety of reasons of funding and everybody get you know, 150 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: getting kind of like your mini tanks and all these 151 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 1: different sort of stuff. A lot of it was when 152 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: I rock in Afghanistan right down right, there was a 153 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 1: tremendous amount of military equipment available, and somebody said, can 154 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 1: the copsy is this? What the hell do you need 155 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 1: that for in this particular town? When are you ever 156 00:08:58,320 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: gonna need that? And yeah, it puts people on it. 157 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 1: So you had a conducting arraid in Falujah vehicle to 158 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: serve a warrant on a guy who had, you know whatever, 159 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:11,360 Speaker 1: he didn't show up for his shoplifting trial. Yeah, it's 160 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:17,200 Speaker 1: a question at least worth asking. So it would seem 161 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:23,319 Speaker 1: we purchased our government purchased a brain scrambler, like the 162 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,439 Speaker 1: Russians apparently had that, those scrambling brains of Americans, and 163 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,199 Speaker 1: now we can scramble brains. More details on that story 164 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,560 Speaker 1: that we had for you the other day. Pretty interesting 165 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,440 Speaker 1: modern technology, yipes. You know. One final note on the 166 00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota LARPing thing, because I left this out. The vibe 167 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: in the video, she writes, is strangely casual. It's chaotic, 168 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,640 Speaker 1: but strangely casual. Ye Good's wife is in the videos 169 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:49,640 Speaker 1: heckling the officers. You want to come at us, I say, 170 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 1: go get yourself some lunch, big boy, ballsy and confident 171 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,160 Speaker 1: and absolutely certain that nothing bad could possibly come up, 172 00:09:56,240 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: right right. That's not the way normal people would react 173 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 1: to I'm in a situation there's cops. I mean, most 174 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: of us we get pulled. I think I only know 175 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: my own stuff. You get pulled over for speeding. It's 176 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: a little bit of a you know, I'm gonna make 177 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: sure my hands are up here, everybody knows what's going on. 178 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say yes sir and hand them the stuff 179 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,480 Speaker 1: they asked or especially because blocking in vehicles is a 180 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,559 Speaker 1: well known ambush tactic, and a bunch of cops and 181 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 1: federal officers have been hit with vehicles intentionally just in 182 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:27,720 Speaker 1: the last few months. So the idea that this is 183 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 1: a fun activity without any possible negative repercussions is it's delusional. 184 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: Speaking of delusional, Candice Owens believes Charlie Kirk is a 185 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 1: time traveling something or other. We talked about that earlier. 186 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 1: We got a bunch of text replies that we're interesting. 187 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: Well revisit that a little bit. You heard him, right, folks, 188 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: a time traveler. We got other stuff to talk about. 189 00:10:54,000 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: To stay here. It's official. John Hart is the coach 190 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: of the New York Giants football team. 191 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 3: Yay or boo, I don't care. Let's second the other day. 192 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 1: How we treat like celebrities or people like that with 193 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: you don't think about their real lives, like the fact 194 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: that he and his wife and they've raised kids in 195 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 1: the Baltimore area for two decades and now are gonna 196 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:19,599 Speaker 1: pick up and move to another town like lots of 197 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: us do. It's not like nobody has to, but eh, 198 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,320 Speaker 1: that's not the easiest thing in the world. It's not 199 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: just like you lost a cool job. Now you got 200 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: another cool job. It'd be pretty disruptive anyhow. It's also 201 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: official Candice Owens is a nut she thinks, or a 202 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: brilliant manipulator. A nuts you're right, you're right away always 203 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,080 Speaker 1: got to hold out that likelihood, which is probably the 204 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,079 Speaker 1: most likely thing. So this got a fair amount of 205 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 1: attention for people who follow this sort of thing. After 206 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: all the things she's said about her friend, the assassinated 207 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk, she now thinks he's a time traveler. 208 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 4: Charlie died, Yes, like I said, it was related to 209 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,679 Speaker 4: this organization, and I think we would all agree that 210 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,800 Speaker 4: his death and the manner that they did it changed 211 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,719 Speaker 4: the world in ways that I don't think we can 212 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 4: fully realize. Are certainly not in a way that I 213 00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 4: can articulate. You just cannot pretend that all of this 214 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 4: is one big, unhappy coincidence. It's entirely plausible, I think 215 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 4: plausible that they knew something about Charlie and that's why 216 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 4: they had him marked. 217 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 3: So this is so long in rambling. 218 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: He he belonged to a conspiracy of time travelers and 219 00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,719 Speaker 1: they were keeping track of him, the agents were, and 220 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: when he was going to withdraw the funding from a 221 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 1: turning point or something. The Jews, the Jews and the 222 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 1: Time Travelers had Charlie Kirk killed, and then he and 223 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: Loki took on Owen Wilson and were running through the 224 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 1: halls and it got very confusing. So I saw the 225 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: trailer today. Yet it's very action packed. So we got 226 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 1: a number of responses of that the conversation we had 227 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,600 Speaker 1: last hour. I listened to Candace Owens for the same 228 00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: reason I listened to Bigfoot podcasts. Funny, we also got this. 229 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 1: Every follower of Nick Fuentes and Candice Owens are supporters. 230 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: Some people follow because it's a train wreck. I followed 231 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: Gavin Newsenom and definitely not a supporter. Followed Candace for 232 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:10,679 Speaker 1: a while for that reason, but she went too far 233 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:12,480 Speaker 1: off the rails. That is one thing you got to 234 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: keep in the mind with the controversial crowd. So if 235 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 1: Tucker has, however, many million followers on Twitter, what percentage 236 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,360 Speaker 1: of them are there for the train wreck and to 237 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:26,239 Speaker 1: see what crazy. 238 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:26,560 Speaker 3: Stuff he says? 239 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:28,680 Speaker 1: Like I am more or less it's not because I 240 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 1: believe everything Tucker says and can't wait for the next 241 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: video he puts out fair enough, and it's hard to 242 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: know the percentage on those. You have to recognize the 243 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: difference between the voice of God and the voice of Satan. 244 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 1: This sounds like functional mental illness. It's hard for a 245 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: healthy person to create this s offhand. I don't know. 246 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. 247 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 1: I've read enough about scientists who study this sort of thing, 248 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: who can tell you the formula for stringing people along 249 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,120 Speaker 1: and if they can figure it out, somebody very very bright, 250 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,320 Speaker 1: like a Tucker Carlson or a Candas Owns can figure 251 00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,320 Speaker 1: it out. And there's a hell of a lot of 252 00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 1: money in it. Cannistone's is just following the doctor Jean 253 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: Scott method of keeping an audience off to google that 254 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know that reference. Now, she 255 00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:09,360 Speaker 1: sounds like a cult leader. I know that you will 256 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: never put this on the air, But by going after Canda, 257 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: you're wrong. But by going after Candace and your conspiracy 258 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 1: theorists all morning, you're proving how much of a Jewish 259 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: apologist this show really is. 260 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 3: And why don't you just cover for them forever? Ah, 261 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: you busted us? Is that you busted us? 262 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 1: Is that trolling? 263 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:29,680 Speaker 3: Or is it? 264 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,000 Speaker 1: Or do you believe that that we're like working for 265 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,440 Speaker 1: the Jews somehow. What do you think that note is? 266 00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I actually don't know. There's so much 267 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: trolling going on. I just don't know well, And it's 268 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 1: so hard to even parody what's going on in the 269 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 1: world because it's also not to a certain extent, like 270 00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:50,040 Speaker 1: last segment, everybody's LARPing constantly. 271 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 3: It's then it's never ending larp. I'm playing the. 272 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: Role of this, and you're playing the role of that. 273 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: Now I'm going to play the role of this. First 274 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,800 Speaker 1: you clipped it, then you misinterpret what she said. What 275 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: have you, guys become? I feel betrayed listening to you, guys. 276 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,440 Speaker 1: Sorry to hear that. She did not call Turning Point 277 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 1: USA a time traveling cabal. She said she felt like 278 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,400 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk was like a time traveler. He somehow knew things. 279 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: She thought. Okay, all right, you have no idea what 280 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 1: you're talking about, Candice Owens. Why bring it up if 281 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: if you're understanding about what she's saying is so limited? Okay, 282 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 1: all right, congratulations having been ensnared in her web of 283 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,400 Speaker 1: rhetorical madness. But I've got you, Joe. I've got to 284 00:15:33,440 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: assume that people at the highest levels of the Republican Party. 285 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: You're trying to figure out the same thing I've been 286 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 1: trying to figure out is how much hef do these 287 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 1: people actually have? How much do we have to court 288 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 1: that audience right? How many of our willers? You you 289 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: have to just not run them off, I think is 290 00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: what everybody's concluded. You don't have to embrace them exactly, 291 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,560 Speaker 1: other than you know, you have lunch with Nick Fantes 292 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: and you have Tucker over and whatever. 293 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,840 Speaker 3: You just make gestures there's a friendliness. 294 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: Then you think, oh my god, what a bunch of nutjobs, 295 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: and then more or less ignore them, just politically. 296 00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 3: To keep the coalition together. 297 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: Everybody's reporting now in this basketball scandal that has come 298 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: out today with it's now college basketball Division one college basketball, 299 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: quite a few players too many players that were shaving 300 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: points apparently over the last couple of seasons. We'll get 301 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:30,360 Speaker 1: more details as they come out. Yeah, indeed, I wanted 302 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 1: to grab that article and I've lost it. So I 303 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: think the difference between I'll just speak for myself, a 304 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,000 Speaker 1: guy like me, cynical world weary having observed this sort 305 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: of thing over and over again, and a lot of 306 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:43,360 Speaker 1: people who fall for it is. 307 00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 3: I understand. 308 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,280 Speaker 1: I've said many times every good scam is eighty to 309 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 1: ninety percent truth. It's that last ten to twenty percent 310 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 1: that makes it a scam. And I think a lot 311 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 1: of people like fall in love with the eighty to 312 00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 1: ninety percent that is truth and think, but no, I 313 00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: can't believe. No, it's not a scam, because look at 314 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 1: all these things they said were true. You're just still 315 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:07,600 Speaker 1: a little naive about the way scams work. But I 316 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: don't have time to flesh out the thought. I have 317 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 1: to leave it there. 318 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, a couple of interesting stories for you this half hour. 319 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 3: I think. 320 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 1: I hope you can stick around if you miss a podcast. 321 00:17:15,119 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty on the. 322 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 6: Main Armstrong and Getty, the testro introduces a Letta for 323 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 6: autonomous blood collection. The patient inserts a cartridge with labeled 324 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 6: blood collection tubes. A green light indicator guides the patient 325 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:34,360 Speaker 6: for correct arm placement. Aletta uses a combination of near 326 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 6: infrared and ultrasound to identify a suitable vein and will 327 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 6: not attempt to vene puncture unless one is foul. This 328 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,919 Speaker 6: approach allows Aletta to successfully puncture almost every patient, regardless 329 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 6: of skin tone. Body type or challenging veins. Using Doppler ultrasound. 330 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 6: Aletta also accurately distinguishes between veins and arteries. Oh my god, 331 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 6: it's the optimal vein is identified with take your time. 332 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 6: The needle is inserted with some millimeter robotic precision. The 333 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 6: needle is not visible for the patient. The patient cannot 334 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 6: see or feel the tubes filling and being changed. Once complete, 335 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 6: a letter removes the needle and applies a band. 336 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: Listen to the music. Listen to the music. Its fantasticstic 337 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 1: ghitaria that this robot phlebotomist is going to come in 338 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: and start jabbing me, puncturing me with a one hundred 339 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,680 Speaker 1: percent successful punctuary. Well, I could puncture you one hundred 340 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:31,280 Speaker 1: percent of the Conte's old. Still nothing counts so much 341 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 1: as blood. I have come up with a name for 342 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: my new seven member heavy metal band featuring five guitars. 343 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: It is ven A puncture, yes Na puncture. 344 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:43,879 Speaker 7: Well, and watching the video, it's like a horror movie 345 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 7: because it's this machine. Well, it's this machine and you 346 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 7: stick your. 347 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: Arm into a hole. 348 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 3: So I've seen a similar video online. 349 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 7: But go on, I walked, I walked, No, I didn't walk. 350 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 7: I ran right into that one. I'll see your point. 351 00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: So, I mean, it's a horrific the idea that, Okay, 352 00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 1: it's going to line up the veins for me and 353 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: can tell the difference between veins and arteries and blah 354 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: blah blah, but just sticking your arm in a hole 355 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: and hope for the best. Yeah, the idea of. 356 00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 7: Well, the idea is you can't see it, right, that's 357 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 7: supposed to make it more comfortable. 358 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,080 Speaker 1: But then it's like in theory is great. I don't 359 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 1: know if they're going to bite it up now. That's 360 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 1: the other thing, you know. It reminds me of the 361 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: analysis of the Supreme Court hearing about the gender bending 362 00:19:29,400 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: Madison's forces. If you accept that trans girls are girls, well, 363 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 1: and it's a completely different argument. So the entire question 364 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,520 Speaker 1: of this boils down to does it work the same 365 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 1: the way they say. 366 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 3: It does or doesn't it? How about your. 367 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:49,239 Speaker 1: Well, I've had some iffy phlebotomish too, jacket. There are 368 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 1: no blanking bargain. Definitely, if this thing uses ultrasound and 369 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: infrared and whatever to locate deep breath, perfect a perfect 370 00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:02,199 Speaker 1: vein and then less than a millimeter in with precision 371 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 1: and the NASA directed the space age science. That sounds 372 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: good to me, but if it doesn't work, it's a 373 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: blanket night. Or how about it works really well, but 374 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 1: every once in a while goes on the fritz. 375 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 7: Well that's what I liked, is the one line in 376 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 7: there goes and it successfully. It sets on the successful 377 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 7: blood draws on most patients. 378 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: So what about the other ones where they I have 379 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 1: a little a medical thing a company that I deal with, 380 00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: and they needed some blood and they sent me this 381 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:37,199 Speaker 1: little thing to slap on my arm. Have you ever 382 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: done that before? No, sir, is a little It looked 383 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 1: like a little box and I just was supposed to 384 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: slap it on my arm and felt nothing, absolutely nothing, 385 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 1: And then blood started to flow into a little vial 386 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,879 Speaker 1: there and then I pulled it out and put it 387 00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:55,560 Speaker 1: in the prepaid FedEx epanol envelope and sent it back 388 00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: to them. But I mean, it had no feeling whatsoever. Zero, 389 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: And I think, how did it do that? And it 390 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,560 Speaker 1: was supposed to, like measure just the few millimeters it 391 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: takes to get blood, and maybe this man can do it. 392 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: Bill Gates communicates to you through that chip. 393 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,199 Speaker 1: That's the way that works, But I I, you know, 394 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:15,919 Speaker 1: I wish I could always get blood in such a 395 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:18,040 Speaker 1: painless way as this thing I used through the mail. 396 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: So maybe this oh interesting? Yeah, I suspect it's coming 397 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 1: better than some half assed phlebotomists. Yeah. Usually that's an 398 00:21:27,480 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 1: excellent point. Ninety four percent of punctures, the other six 399 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 1: percent of being hospitalized for their physical and emotional injuries 400 00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 1: by the model that never uses the word vein or puncture. 401 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: Oh boy, coming up. Grave robbery is spreading across America, 402 00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:50,960 Speaker 1: and it's not a joke. Gee of yours, signs your 403 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,479 Speaker 1: society's crumbling. I gotta believe that, you know, toward the 404 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: top thought this was interesting. Callum Borcher's terrific writer in 405 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 1: the Wall Street Journal. White collar workers shouldn't dismiss a 406 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: blue collar career change. And he's talking about and this 407 00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: will just increase my friends, layoffs and stagnant wages. Have 408 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,199 Speaker 1: a hell of a lot of white collar workers feeling 409 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,879 Speaker 1: stuck applying for one hundred and fifty desk jobs without 410 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 1: without luck getting one interview and it doesn't pan out. Meanwhile, 411 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: your blue collar industries face a labor shortage. Yeah, that 412 00:22:22,800 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 1: came up with Trump the other night when he was 413 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: at the Ford plant, the uh tony what's his name? 414 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:34,880 Speaker 1: Said Ford saying that they just can't get enough mechanics. Yeah, 415 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:38,639 Speaker 1: there are complications to that specific field. Takes you a 416 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,840 Speaker 1: long time, You've got to have a lot of expensive tools, 417 00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. 418 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 3: But there are plenty of examples. 419 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 1: I mean, in fact, they give some here and they admit, look, 420 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: depending on your age, there are some blue collar jobs, 421 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,120 Speaker 1: so called blue collar jobs that are you know, tough 422 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,159 Speaker 1: on your back and your knees, and you don't have 423 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: forever to do them. And how hard it is for 424 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: traditional white collar folk like tech, finance, media marketing to 425 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: go to the blue collar world because of the prejudices 426 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 1: we and micro and others have been talking about for 427 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 1: a very long time. I was going to say, the 428 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 1: cultural part is going to be more important than the 429 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 1: other stuff. There's just a lot of people that can't 430 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: imagine their kid doing a blue collar job. That would 431 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 1: just be a disappointment to the whole family. What if 432 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 1: the neighbors found out right exactly? Yeah, And that was 433 00:23:27,240 --> 00:23:30,160 Speaker 1: one of the more insidious parts of the Obama years 434 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:34,400 Speaker 1: in my opinion, was he in particular and people who 435 00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: think like him really pushed the idea that anything other 436 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: than a college education is a nightmare and an insult 437 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:46,080 Speaker 1: and hurtful. And you know, let's eliminate these programs for 438 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, shop class and job training programs. I can't well, 439 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 1: what's the word, I can't remember, And let's make everything 440 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 1: college prep in school anyway, not to get distracted with 441 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:59,880 Speaker 1: my Dislike Barack Obama, it can take years to master 442 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,480 Speaker 1: trade and make good money at it. Starting in your 443 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,639 Speaker 1: thirties and forties leaves a shorter window. A bruised ego 444 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 1: is in the only obstacle to a career change. But 445 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 1: they mentioned there are jobs. I just got interjected. I 446 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:14,439 Speaker 1: mean that might be true for some things. But I know, 447 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,639 Speaker 1: I personally know people who have gone to some of 448 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: these places where they'll pay you to go to school 449 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: because they're so desperate for welders or certain sort of 450 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,120 Speaker 1: tech stuff like mechanics, sort of stuff that's high tech. 451 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 1: And they paid them and it's like a six month 452 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: school and they start making decent money right away. It 453 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 1: wasn't a build a career over a decade, right sort 454 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 1: of situation. Crash Champions, a car repair chain with about 455 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: six hundred and fifty shops in thirty eight states is. 456 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 3: Hungry for service advisors. 457 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: You assess the damage, estimate the cost to fix it, 458 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: oversee the process. You don't need to sweat under the hood. 459 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:47,720 Speaker 1: You just need to know a. 460 00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:48,399 Speaker 3: Lot about cars. 461 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: And for those who don't, there's a six months of 462 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: six month apprenticeship program starting salaries roughly sixty grand, which 463 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 1: would be a pay cut, a pretty good pay cut 464 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,400 Speaker 1: for a lot of white collar workers. But service advisors 465 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: can double salaries in eighteen months. According to the CEO, 466 00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: it would be and that can often lead to becoming 467 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 1: the GM of a choperate. It's not a pay cut 468 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: if you're making zero well, right right, If you want 469 00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: to live in the real world where your job no 470 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,880 Speaker 1: longer exists, it's not a pay cut. It's a pay 471 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,679 Speaker 1: increase from what you currently have zero to sixty thousand 472 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,920 Speaker 1: dollars a year, right right. 473 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's tough to transcend the reality you took 474 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 5: to be permanent. 475 00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's to massive change happened, and I worry greatly 476 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: that I'm going to have to deal with that in 477 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: the last quarter of my life. Is everything gets turned 478 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: completely upside down right right, And I don't blame people 479 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: for struggling to do that, having been raised with certain 480 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,720 Speaker 1: expectations and seeing the world as it is and told 481 00:25:57,720 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 1: over and over again that this is the way you 482 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: should live here life. You internalize that stuff, you believe it. 483 00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:04,360 Speaker 1: You believe it to your bone, well sure, and bones, 484 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,800 Speaker 1: not just one bone, multiple bones. And our job is 485 00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:09,400 Speaker 1: not to depress or scare you, although I could see 486 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: how you'd tune in and think that is our job, 487 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: or we see. 488 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 3: It as our goal. 489 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 1: I was reading about the hyper inflation in Germany leading 490 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: up to World War Two, but hyper inflation they had 491 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:24,840 Speaker 1: in Venezuela, Iran. It leads to such an unrest because 492 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 1: and try to imagine this for yourself, not only for 493 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 1: young people, is a horrible but how about your fifty 494 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 1: You've worked your life, you've accumulated, you know, your money, 495 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:36,520 Speaker 1: little by little, tried to do the right thing, and 496 00:26:36,560 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden, it's worthless. You're at square one. 497 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 1: Everything you've built, your entire life is gone. That happens 498 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: with hyperinflation. All the time you talk about having to 499 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: adjust to a new reality, What all that I did, 500 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: my whole life is for nothing, nothing, I got nothing 501 00:26:54,720 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 1: advice as I made all everything I started completely over right, Well, 502 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: you're gonna have to give me a moment. Yeah, and 503 00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: a bottle. And they mentioned that like in security firms, 504 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: it's about twenty twenty five dollars an hour to be 505 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 1: an unarmed security agent in a lot of different places, 506 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. But you can quickly rise up and 507 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: become a manager and earn six figures. And then finally 508 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 1: this the CEO of this security firm who dropped out 509 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,200 Speaker 1: of college, argues, people make too much of professional distinctions. 510 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,359 Speaker 1: I hate using the terms white collar and blue collar. 511 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: Well will those terms even mean in five years? No kidding, Yeah, 512 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,200 Speaker 1: you're right, you're right. We probably need to do away 513 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 1: with those. Here's the part that depresses you. Grave robbery 514 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 1: is spreading across America. Opioid abuse and the rising value 515 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 1: of bronze or among the factors driving themed thieves to 516 00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: loot cemeteries. And they start in scenic Compton, California, of course, 517 00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: lading the nation, showing a way to the future, chunkies 518 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 1: on every corner, and grave robbery. 519 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:08,480 Speaker 3: That's the California promise. Cavin for President ruin the entire. 520 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:14,520 Speaker 1: Country grave robbery. So in Compton alone, thieves have damage. 521 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: You're stolen nearly sixteen hundred headstones and plaques in the 522 00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 1: last couple of years. We got hit in January, says 523 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,679 Speaker 1: the operator of Woodlawn Celestial Gardens. We got hit in December, 524 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,720 Speaker 1: we got hit in November. We won't be replacing them. 525 00:28:28,720 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: We can't afford that. We can barely take care of 526 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: the cemetery. Across the country. New York, more than one 527 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,159 Speaker 1: hundred and seventy thousand dollars worth of bronze vases and 528 00:28:37,200 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: markers were stolen from a big cemetery. 529 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 3: Oh, that was in Minneapolis, in Minneapols. 530 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:49,080 Speaker 1: This reminds me of Indiana. Even this is another one 531 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: of those things where that's funny. You've been able to 532 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:55,840 Speaker 1: have gravestones and bronze plaques for two hundred years in 533 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,280 Speaker 1: this country. You just did. Nobody even gave it a 534 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,560 Speaker 1: second thought. You just could. You can't. 535 00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 3: Sounds an awful lot like that's funny. 536 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 1: You could just have toothpaste on the shelf for the 537 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: last two hundred years and it was fine. But now 538 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: you've got to put it behind lock class. Huh. Times change, 539 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,880 Speaker 1: No policies changed and you get the results. Yeah, in 540 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: societies and shared values change and crumble. In my very 541 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: conservative neck of the woods, my wife reported to me, 542 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: they're starting to put some of the more stolen items 543 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: behind lock and key now for the first time, echoing 544 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: the blue cities of America. And now you gotta lock 545 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,240 Speaker 1: people up. You see, that's the way you saw that. 546 00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: You lock up freaking criminals for. 547 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 3: What committing crimes? 548 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: Wow, you're part of the patriarchy, white supremacy, the overincarceration 549 00:29:42,040 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 1: of America.

We think at the cost of it 615 00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:28,160 Speaker 1: says eight figures, which should be at least ten million 616 00:33:28,200 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: dollars according to people familiar with the matter, from people 617 00:33:34,360 --> 00:33:38,640 Speaker 1: who who had the backpacks. It's like a portable backpack 618 00:33:38,760 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: size thing we could was probably like a Russian oligarch 619 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,320 Speaker 1: or somebody like that who had access to the technology 620 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:50,040 Speaker 1: and just wanted to score, you know, or needed money 621 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:55,000 Speaker 1: for the Ukraine effort.

But how 625 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 1: about the fact that it's a portable, backpacked sort of 626 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,480 Speaker 1: thing that you can wear around amidst pulsed radio frequency energy. 627 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:12,680 Speaker 1: For more than a year, we've had this and we've 628 00:34:12,719 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: been practicing it and possible used it down in Venezuela 629 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: the other day as there were reports of people having 630 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:26,000 Speaker 1: the brain scrambled down there, some of the guards of Omaduro. Damn. Yeah, 631 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: it might not be necessary to ever shoot anybody ever 632 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 1: again in warfare, no kidding, they scramble your brains.

The actor, 647 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 1: who's fifty nine years old, told cops he called for 648 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,919 Speaker 1: an Uber Black after having dinner with a friend late 649 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 1: Sunday night and asked the driver to take him home. 650 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 1: At some point during the ride, Keeper Sutherland asked the 651 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: driver to pull over and let him out. According to 652 00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,560 Speaker 1: the uber driver, Sutherland then threatened to kill him if 653 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: he didn't pull over. The driver then called nine one. 654 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: Happened between those two things, That's what I mean.

So there you go. By the way, I 662 00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: didn't know this. He he uh had bumped a guy 663 00:36:01,920 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: and broke his nose because he had actually the guy 664 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:10,800 Speaker 1: had actually dently bumped into Keeper Subbalin's date once.
