1 00:00:02,279 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: The economy's terrible entertainment matters. 2 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: I'm apparently a world class cook. 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 1: All that and so much more is coming up tonight, 4 00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:22,040 Speaker 1: and I'm right. Do you ever hear about these professional 5 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: athletes who go broke right away as soon as they retire? 6 00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:27,080 Speaker 2: You ever heard about how they go broke? 7 00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: That. We're going to get to America's economy in a second, 8 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,960 Speaker 1: and I should clarify before we get going. Yes, I 9 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: did forget to put anything in my hair today before 10 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 1: I got on the air. I was on the phone 11 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 1: and just kind of forgot. So that's why it looks 12 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 1: a little differentating. It doesn't matter. I'm practically valid anyway, 13 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 1: who cares. Anyway, back to the economy. We're going to 14 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,600 Speaker 1: talk about America and America's credit rating, but let's go 15 00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,519 Speaker 1: back to the athlete thing, because this will help us 16 00:00:50,600 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: understand it. You see an athlete all these millions of 17 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 1: dollars one hundred million dollar contract here and there, and 18 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,560 Speaker 1: you see them with all the diamond necklaces and mansions 19 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: and Lamborghinis in the world, and you think, my goodness, 20 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: that guy has more money than he can spend. And 21 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 1: then about fifteen minutes after he retires, this happens to 22 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,639 Speaker 1: half of them. Boom bankruptcy declares bankruptcy. Well, how's it happen? 23 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: How is it humanly possible? Well, it's important we understand 24 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: how that happens and what it means when it happens, 25 00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: because this is coming for all of us here in America. 26 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: You know how that happens most of the time with 27 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,680 Speaker 1: these athletes. Let's say they're making a million dollars a month. 28 00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: All right, that's a lot of money, obviously, but let's 29 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: say they're making a million dollars a month, will make 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: it simplistic. They're finding a way to spend. 31 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 2: Two million dollars a month. 32 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: So I'm making all this money to shoot oops, But man, 33 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: I need an extra Lamborghini. I want to rent a 34 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 1: yacht for all my friends. I want to do this. 35 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: I want to do that. I'm spending more than a million. 36 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: I'm spending two million a month. But I'm able to 37 00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: do that. I'm able to keep my head above water 38 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:05,400 Speaker 1: doing that because I'm still making a million a month, 39 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 1: and a million a month, and a million a month 40 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: allows me to cover those interest payments. Let's push this 41 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 1: off a little further. Hey, what about this? What about that. 42 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,359 Speaker 1: I can afford better accountants, I can afford better lawyers. 43 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,360 Speaker 1: So I'm always spending more than I make. But I 44 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: make so much money it gives me the freedom. 45 00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 2: To do that. 46 00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: Now, let's get to us here in America. You see, 47 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:32,000 Speaker 1: the only life you have ever known, the only life 48 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: I have ever known. 49 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:33,440 Speaker 2: I'm forty two. 50 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: The only life we've ever known, no matter your age, 51 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: is this America can spend whatever we want. You realize 52 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 1: how crazy that is. For virtually every other country on 53 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,399 Speaker 1: the planet, and every country in the history. 54 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 2: Of the planet. 55 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: We spend whatever we want, and just like that drunken athlete, 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 1: we don't even think about the cost or overspending, or 57 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: that it may end one day. Because of this, because 58 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:09,399 Speaker 1: our credit rating and the value of our dollar has 59 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 1: been so stellar, and we've always had so much money 60 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,480 Speaker 1: coming in, it has given us the freedom to just 61 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: spend way more than we make every year. No one 62 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: even matts and I about it, No one bets and 63 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 1: Ie about it at all. Here's the problem, though, To 64 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:32,120 Speaker 1: do that, to keep spending money without end, you must 65 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: have the rest of the world agree that your money 66 00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: is stable, that your financial situation is stable. 67 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: And if we ever get to a place where the world. 68 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 1: Doesn't think that's the case anymore. You and I are 69 00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: about to see a reduction in our standard of living 70 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: like you've never seen in your lifetime. If America has 71 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: to start doing what other nations do, and that's live 72 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 1: within its means, it's bankruptcy time, baby, and it's time 73 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: to start opening up our eyes. 74 00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:09,600 Speaker 2: Fitch, one of these. 75 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: Major groups, just downloaded our credit rating from triple A 76 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: to double A. Now what does that mean, Well, you 77 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 1: have a credit score. I have a credit score. Let's 78 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: say your credit score is seven hundred or seven fifty. 79 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: That's a great credit score, seven to fifty. Pay all 80 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: your bills on time. And you walk into a bank 81 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: and you went alone with a seven to fifty credit score, 82 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: you're going to get the best loan rates they have 83 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: to offer. Welcome in, mister Burns, here's three percent for you. 84 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 2: Good work. 85 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: If you walk into that same bank with a six 86 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: hundred credit score, they might say, mister Burns, you can't. 87 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 2: Have a loan for anything. 88 00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,760 Speaker 1: Or they'll say, oh, we'll give you a loan, mister 89 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: Burns for fifteen percent. That's us as a nation right now, 90 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,920 Speaker 1: as the world watches us spend out of control. The 91 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: world is looking on and they're saying, maybe a may okay, 92 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: isn't that great financially anymore? And if only somebody could 93 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: have seen something like this coming. The GOP lined up 94 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: for the last four years, four years and voted yes, 95 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: and voted yes, and voted yes, and voted yes on 96 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: multiple massive spending bills. Truth is, no one cares. Then 97 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: no one's gonna care until the whole house of cards 98 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,560 Speaker 1: come crashing down and everyone's gonna look around and they're 99 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,960 Speaker 1: gonna say, well, how this happened, How this happened. Well, 100 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: here's the hard truth of it. Talk about making you uncomfortable, 101 00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,279 Speaker 1: here's the heart truth of it. When that happens, you 102 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: and I will both have to. 103 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:45,279 Speaker 2: Go look in the mirror and say, that's on me. 104 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: I never demanded better, so I never got better. You 105 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:57,479 Speaker 1: get what you get. Don't throw a fit. And here 106 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 1: we are facing it. Truth is that Democrats and Republicans 107 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 1: both spend like drunken sailors. And this is the craziest 108 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: part about this whole thing. This is the craziest part 109 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: about where we're going. We'll get to the FED in 110 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: a minute. Credit rating wise, and recession wise, and interest 111 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,200 Speaker 1: rates and dollars. But the craziest thing is this what 112 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 1: I'm talking about when it comes to debt. The national 113 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:24,280 Speaker 1: debt getting too high, countries deciding they don't want to 114 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: loan this money anymore, the deflation of the dollar. But 115 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 1: you know what, let's stick with the debt for a minute. 116 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,680 Speaker 1: The national debt is not an opinion thing. What I 117 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: just said is not an opinion. It is a mathematical fact. 118 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 1: We know what exponential growth is. As we pile on 119 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: too much debt. 120 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: It is a fact. If we don't stop doing that, 121 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: we're going. 122 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: To get too much interest on the debt. We won't 123 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: even be able to cover the interest payments. 124 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: The second we. 125 00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: Can't stop, or we can't keep paying our bills with 126 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: a dollar that's worth something, credit rating goes down. Your 127 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: standard of living disappear. My standard of living disappears. What 128 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: I just said is not an opinion. It's a mathematical fact. 129 00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 1: The car is driving towards the cliff. It is driving 130 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 1: one hundred miles per hour towards the cliff. There is 131 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: no guardrail. It's all downhill in open pavement until the 132 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 1: cliff's end. It is a guarantee that car is going 133 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 1: off the cliff and everyone in it's going to die. 134 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 1: And having said that, Republicans and Democrats in Congress, the House, Senate, 135 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: and presidents everyone from Joe Biden to Donald Trump to 136 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Barack Obama to George Bush to Bill Clinton to all 137 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 1: of them, they signed bill after bill after bill after 138 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 1: bill guaranteeing that that car goes real thelmat and wheeze 139 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: right off the cliff. It's a guarantee, and no one 140 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: cares right now, Shoot, you probably barely cares. You sit 141 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: there watching everyone just spends and spends and spends as 142 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:55,960 Speaker 1: if that retirement day for that pro athlete's never gonna come. 143 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,080 Speaker 2: But you don't stay young forever, and it comes. Oh 144 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,440 Speaker 2: did I mention? Here's what the EVENTA FED had to say. 145 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,880 Speaker 3: I'm not expecting this to be, you know, a two 146 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 3: month or three month period. My outlook is that we'll 147 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 3: still be in a restrictive territory well in the twenty 148 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: twenty four and it'll just take a while for the 149 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 3: inflationary pressures that we've seen over the last year and 150 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 3: a half to fully dissipate and get us back to 151 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 3: two percent. 152 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: Another year, year and a half. 153 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 1: Don't worry, you're already suffering eighteen percent inflations, the inflation, 154 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 1: the speds, the Fed, the speds, the Feds are spending 155 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 1: like drunken sailors. Just another year and a half and 156 00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 1: maybe we'll get things back under control. So how's the 157 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: system handling this? How's your world class media handling this? 158 00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: Are they out there saying, Hey, I know we're Democrats 159 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 1: or I know we're Republicans, but we finally need some 160 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:52,199 Speaker 1: spending cuts, not reduction on the spending increases. We need 161 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 1: actual spending cuts to avoid catastrophe, to avoid the car 162 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: going off the ledge. 163 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,280 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, no no. 164 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: They're all running on TV defending Joe Biden telling you 165 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: how wonderful things are. 166 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:06,920 Speaker 4: I do think the economy is going to be a 167 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:14,320 Speaker 4: huge asset. Biden has been maybe too reticent, too modest 168 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 4: to take credit, but I mean where we've come since 169 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 4: the depths of the pandemic is an astounding recovery story. 170 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: Astounding according to what I'm observing. 171 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 5: The economy is booming, Inflation is down, the stock market 172 00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 5: is doing well. People are having an easier time putting 173 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 5: bread on the table, etc. He doesn't seem to be 174 00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 5: getting the credit for that. 175 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 1: And you know what, the wildest thing about all this 176 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: is this is this is Okay, that was all a 177 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: lot to take in. I realize that, but this part 178 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: is the wildest part to me. When that day comes, 179 00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: I think it'll probably be in my lifetime or really 180 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,040 Speaker 1: not shortly, but it could be. But when that day comes, 181 00:09:57,040 --> 00:10:00,559 Speaker 1: remember it's inevitable cars heading towards the cliff. Whether it's 182 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: my life, my kid's life, their kid's life, whatever, it's coming. 183 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,959 Speaker 2: The day's coming. When that car. 184 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: Goes zoom, what should happen is the people who've run 185 00:10:09,960 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: the country, the Democrats and Republicans who spin us into disaster, 186 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: who've run the country, they should, in that moment, have 187 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 1: a joint press conference where they all stand side by 188 00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: side on the television set and they tell you how 189 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 1: sorry they are and this is our fault. 190 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: And how could we do this? 191 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: But you know, call me cynecal I think when that 192 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: day finally gets here, they're just going to blame something else, 193 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: and half the public will go along with it. You 194 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 1: know what they're blaming high gas prices on right now? 195 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 2: Just watch this. This is probably what they'll do when 196 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 2: the debt takes us off the cliff. 197 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 6: Have you noticed a recent surgeon gas prices this summer? 198 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,079 Speaker 6: Join the club. You're not alone. The national average price 199 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 6: of a gallon of regulars now three dollars and eighty 200 00:10:55,840 --> 00:10:58,440 Speaker 6: three cents. That's about thirty cents more than it was 201 00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 6: just a month ago. One big factor might surprise you. 202 00:11:01,679 --> 00:11:05,199 Speaker 6: It seems this summer's extreme heat is playing a role. 203 00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, those gas prices are high because of climate change. 204 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 1: All that may have made you uncomfortable, but I am right. 205 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,559 Speaker 1: We're going to talk to the great President of Freedom 206 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 1: works in just the moment before we talk to him. 207 00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 2: Maybe you're a little anxious at the moment. 208 00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,200 Speaker 1: Maybe you're sitting there thinking about that car zooming towards 209 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: the cliff, and you're gonna have trouble sleeping tonight. Well, 210 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: I've got some news for you about me. Let me 211 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: just talk about me for a second.

I strongly disagree 233 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 7: with Fitch's decision, and I believe it is entirely unwarranted. 234 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: Okay, well, Janet Yellen's an idiot and a liar, but 235 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean she's necessarily wrong here. 236 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 2: Who are these Fitch people? 237 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:09,480 Speaker 1: Why are they downgrading our credit rating? 238 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 2: What do we do? 239 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,440 Speaker 1: Joining me now, Adam Brandon, president of the Great Freedom Works. Okay, Adam, 240 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: before we get into Janet Yellen, tell me about this Fitch. 241 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: I've never met this guy. 242 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,679 Speaker 8: So Fitch is a rating agency. 243 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 9: They're one of these people who go out there and 244 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 9: they take a look at a company or a government 245 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:28,840 Speaker 9: and their debt and be like and they kind of 246 00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 9: graded as in you have top of the pile, like, hey, 247 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 9: they're going to be able to pay back their bills 248 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 9: or they're going to be like some of my old 249 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 9: college roommates that I would loan five dollars to and 250 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,160 Speaker 9: they get junk ratings. 251 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 8: So you put that together. 252 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 9: The United States has historically had triple A credit ratings, 253 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 9: but what Fitch looked at our debt and they're like, 254 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 9: I don't know, you know, we're about ten years from now, 255 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 9: We're going to have fifty trillion dollars in debt and 256 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,160 Speaker 9: they're giving us a high rating AA plus. But they're 257 00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 9: looking at all this debt getting piled on and there 258 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 9: doesn't seem to be any and it's not changing anytime soon. 259 00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,640 Speaker 9: So they're saying, hey, United States, we worry you're going 260 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 9: to be able to pay back your debt in the future. 261 00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:09,079 Speaker 9: And that's the warning that they're giving. 262 00:14:11,080 --> 00:14:14,240 Speaker 1: And this is one of the most frustrating parts about 263 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: the debt talk to me, is it's all so inevitable 264 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: and obvious. I mean, it's not partisan even it's black 265 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: and white. It's dollars and cents. At one point in time, 266 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:24,440 Speaker 1: we're not going to have enough money to pay the 267 00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 1: interest on the debt. That's a mathematical fact. It really 268 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what your opinion on it is or my 269 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:31,240 Speaker 1: opinion on it. It's in the numbers. And yet there's 270 00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 1: no indication that we're even going to get a slight 271 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: reduction in spending. Ever. 272 00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 9: Well, that's what I always take a lot of heart 273 00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 9: in what the House Freedom Caucus is doing and how 274 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 9: they're at least trying to raise the issue in fight. 275 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 9: And it's amazing that they're even within their own Republican party. 276 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 9: I mean, this is a bipartisan problem that created all 277 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 9: of this debt and this spending. And you do have 278 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,840 Speaker 9: just a handful of folks within the House right now 279 00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 9: that are like, whoa, whoa, whoa, we actually need to 280 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 9: start lowering our spending rates, to start cutting where possible. 281 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 9: And you hear numbers that sound big, like one hundred 282 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 9: billion dollars, but it's not really that big of a 283 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,320 Speaker 9: number when you look at the thirty some trillion we have, 284 00:15:10,480 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 9: but you have to start somewhere. And there's a lot 285 00:15:14,280 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 9: of threats to the United States, and this one is 286 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 9: a threat that's around the corner. It's not today, maybe 287 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 9: a few years from now, but pretty. 288 00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,320 Speaker 8: Soon we're going to be there. 289 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 9: And if we wait until the crisis happens, it may 290 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 9: be too late then. And this is how great countries 291 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 9: get ruined. It's not some foreign invader, it's that they 292 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 9: go broke from the inside and rot from the inside. 293 00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: Will this stop? Do we have any chance to stop that? 294 00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 1: You know what a better question I think I should 295 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: probably ask you is that I think we both know 296 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: it's not going to stop. What's going to happen the 297 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,880 Speaker 1: day that bubble bubble finally pops, the day foreign government's 298 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,160 Speaker 1: foreign entities stop saying no, America, I will not give 299 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 1: you another loan to pay for social security. What's going 300 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: to happen here in this country. 301 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 9: You've seen previews that this happens around the world. A 302 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,360 Speaker 9: few years ago, this happened in Greece. And when when 303 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 9: Greece couldn't pay its debts the credit ratings came in, 304 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 9: what did Greece have to do overnight has to slash 305 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 9: its spending. So instead of adjusting the rate of growth 306 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 9: the Social Security from three percent to two percent, you 307 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 9: cut Social Security by thirty forty percent overnight. If you've 308 00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 9: got to keep paying your debts, so we're going to 309 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 9: have to continue to pay the interest on our debts. However, 310 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 9: you're going to look at all the money we're spending 311 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 9: on the military that's going to be reduced overnight. Everything 312 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 9: has to be abruptly changed overnight. And then one thing 313 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 9: that the United States has been so fortunate to have 314 00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 9: is this status of the dollar as the reserve currency. 315 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 9: But if you're in a financial crisis and you lose 316 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 9: that ability to have the dollar as the reserve currency, 317 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 9: all of a sudden, we're going to not be able 318 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 9: to issue. 319 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 8: All of this debt. 320 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 9: And so that looks at dramatic overnight cuts which would 321 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 9: lead to an absolute catastrophe in just a massive readjustment. 322 00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 9: And this is what happened to Argentina. Argentina was a 323 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,680 Speaker 9: rich country at one point. Now it's an economic basket case. 324 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 9: That's what happens now. I have a little bit more 325 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:11,479 Speaker 9: hope that as a country we can rise to this 326 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 9: occasion and we can start to address our debt situation. 327 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 8: But I wouldn't hold my breath. 328 00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:19,600 Speaker 2: Hold up. 329 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 1: Well, you know what, Hey, we got a golden opportunity 330 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: right now. We have a GOP house, and we have 331 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: all these appropriations. 332 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 2: Meaning's coming up right now. 333 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: Surely the GOP is going to be out there cut 334 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 1: and spending to make sure we can get back on 335 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:32,200 Speaker 1: the fiscal track. 336 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,640 Speaker 9: Well, that's what you would hope to see happen coming 337 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,920 Speaker 9: up here in the next several months. Unfortunately, it's probably 338 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:42,400 Speaker 9: going to be Republican and Republican arguing because again you 339 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,920 Speaker 9: have I point to people like Chip Roy of Texas 340 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:49,880 Speaker 9: Congressman Ship Roy. He takes spending so seriously, and we'll 341 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 9: just see, Like, to me, it makes good politics, Like 342 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,640 Speaker 9: let's just be honest with the American people. We've got 343 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,639 Speaker 9: a real financial crisis. Let's talk to the American people 344 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 9: and be like, hey, let's we got to start to 345 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,480 Speaker 9: deal with this. There's no better time than right now 346 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 9: to start to deal with this question. Everyone knows it's true, 347 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 9: and so you can have this. You can have this 348 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:10,920 Speaker 9: conversation now, or we can continue to pretend that there's 349 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,560 Speaker 9: nothing and hey, after the next election and the election 350 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 9: after that will finally start to deal with spending. But 351 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 9: you know, we may be done with dealing with spending, 352 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 9: but spending's not done with us. And so this is 353 00:18:21,359 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 9: going to come home, and eventually it's probably going to 354 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 9: be you and me are and it's definitely going to 355 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:27,280 Speaker 9: be my children. I mean, this is a moral issue 356 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,280 Speaker 9: to me. Did you have to start dealing with this problem? 357 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 8: Now? 358 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:36,200 Speaker 2: Do you think the voters understand this at all? 359 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: Because the truth is there hasn't been an any incentive 360 00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,040 Speaker 1: for Republicans to cut spending. We know Democrats won't. Republicans 361 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,080 Speaker 1: don't either, because when they spend like drunken sailors, the 362 00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,600 Speaker 1: voters will time and time again go back to the 363 00:18:48,640 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: booth and vote for the same guy who just voted 364 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: for the latest. 365 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 2: Trillion dollar bill. Maybe the voters deserve what's coming. 366 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 9: The way I look at it is you have to 367 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,199 Speaker 9: be honest with the voters, and I'm not sure the 368 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:03,399 Speaker 9: Washington class has been honest when you talk about the 369 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:05,880 Speaker 9: spending battles that we're having. Look, you got to start 370 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 9: talking about entitlements, You got to start talking about a 371 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,439 Speaker 9: social security You have to start talking about medicare you 372 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 9: have to start talking about defense, You have to start 373 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:17,119 Speaker 9: talking about the ways that we're financing our government. I 374 00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 9: actually have in my experience when when I travel around 375 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 9: the country meeting with grassroots activists, they want to have 376 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 9: this conversation. 377 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 8: They want they care. 378 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 9: If I remember I was there at the beginning of 379 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,040 Speaker 9: the Tea Party movement. We were having these conversations back then, 380 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 9: and I think it's you got to separate yourself from 381 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 9: the hot button politics of the day to this long term, 382 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 9: more sober conversation. And I actually think the politicians that 383 00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 9: will begin to focus on that long and sober conversation. 384 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,320 Speaker 9: I think Americans are ready for an adult conversation and 385 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,399 Speaker 9: adult debate on how you solve this problem because this 386 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,439 Speaker 9: is to me, the greatest threat that's coming down to 387 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,800 Speaker 9: our country. If you want to know how the history 388 00:19:55,840 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 9: books are going to write the demise of the United States, 389 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 9: chances are we follow our solves out and we go 390 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 9: bro we have the opportunity to solve that problem. 391 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 1: Adam, I hope we can. I hope we can solve 392 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 1: this problem. I truly do. But let's let me ask 393 00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 1: the ultimate hot button question, because you brought it up 394 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 1: and then I'll let you go entitlements. 395 00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: Look, everyone, everyone. 396 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: Loves to say I want to cut spending, especially Republicans, 397 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:25,119 Speaker 1: cut spending, cut spending. And then you tell that person 398 00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,439 Speaker 1: who's seventy years old, Yeah, we're gonna have to do 399 00:20:27,480 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: something about social security. 400 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,720 Speaker 2: What that's outrageous? 401 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 1: Then social Security and Medicare are like two thirds of 402 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:35,719 Speaker 1: the budget. 403 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 8: Correct. 404 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:39,600 Speaker 9: Well, here's the good news on that is that if 405 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,080 Speaker 9: you start talking to younger voters, they're willing to make 406 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 9: some kind of deal or adjustment. And I think, I 407 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 9: look at my parents, they're in their eighties. They need 408 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 9: social Security and Medicare. We're not going to change the 409 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 9: system for those people who depend on it right now. 410 00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 9: But you start making long term changes, you start looking 411 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:56,720 Speaker 9: at what do we do right now that you start 412 00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 9: to have a tiered system. I mean, it makes no 413 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 9: sense to me we're trying to preserve a system like 414 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 9: social Security when it makes far more sense to put small, 415 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 9: younger workers into a system where they get to invest 416 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,360 Speaker 9: their savings into the stock market that's going to do 417 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 9: so much better for them in the long run. And 418 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 9: on things like healthcare, this is where you got to 419 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 9: lean on more innovation, you've got to learn lean on 420 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,600 Speaker 9: some technology, you got to lean on some disruptions. 421 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 8: So it's not that we have no options, and it's 422 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 8: not just cut or not to cut. 423 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:25,399 Speaker 9: It's just we have to start getting real creative in 424 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,760 Speaker 9: how you address these problems. And we're not even having 425 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:28,920 Speaker 9: that conversation yet. 426 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,840 Speaker 1: No, Adam, thank you, boss, I appreciate you. 427 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 8: Hey, thanks for coming or thanks for having me. 428 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:39,920 Speaker 2: Bethug all right. 429 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 1: Entertainment, you know I consider sports part of that too. 430 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,360 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. We'll talk a little bit about that. 431 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 1: How ours got so rotted out here in a moment. 432 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: Before we get to that, let's get to this making preparations. 433 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,560 Speaker 1: As you just heard Adam say, it's going to happen 434 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 1: in our lifetime, if not a virtual guarantee for our kids. Chaos, 435 00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:07,520 Speaker 1: Let's accept it. Let's be adults here. Let's accept chaos 436 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:11,000 Speaker 1: is coming. You can just money wise, it is.

Entertainment matters. 449 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: If you've watched this show for any length of time, 450 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: you know we will talk about that early and often. 451 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 1: Entertainment matters a lot. We should never, ever, ever dismiss it, 452 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 1: and for so long people on the right, myself included, 453 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 1: have dismissed it. How many times have you seen some 454 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 1: professional athlete or some actor be outspoken that's always left 455 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 1: wing about politics, and you said to yourself, or maybe 456 00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: you said to a friend, no one cares what he thinks, 457 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: Oh cares what some actor thinks. No one cares about 458 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,879 Speaker 1: what the sports guy's thinking. That that's not true. People 459 00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:34,879 Speaker 1: do care these people. You can argue obviously that they 460 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 1: shouldn't be lifted to their position they are in our society. 461 00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 1: But you can argue all you want they are lifted 462 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 1: to that position. When Lebron James says something stupid, which 463 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: he does quite often, people do listen. Millions and millions 464 00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:51,240 Speaker 1: and millions of people do listen. 465 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 2: And I was thinking about this earlier. 466 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:57,239 Speaker 1: I just kicking it out of my head and I'm 467 00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 1: gonna ask Steve Days about this next. Do you remember 468 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: do you remember how funny commercials used to be? I'm 469 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: not doing this Grandpa back in my day thing, but 470 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: especially sports commercials. You watch a football game, how great 471 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 1: the commercials used to be. The stupid Budweiser frogs, the 472 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 1: Terry Tait commercial where he's an office linebacker wiping people out. FedEx. 473 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,520 Speaker 1: FedEx used to have the funniest commercials on television. You 474 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,160 Speaker 1: would sit down and when the commercials came on, yes, 475 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: you would see a product advertising, but you would be entertained. 476 00:24:29,280 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 1: Today it's either big Pharma or tranny lives matter. 477 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:34,359 Speaker 2: It's all that crap. 478 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: Why Because the Communist understood the entertainment matters. Sports matter. 479 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: That's why they ruined it. That's why all these athletes 480 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,920 Speaker 1: are comediescum now, all of them. The US women's national 481 00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: team for soccer. I had to explain to my sons, 482 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:55,400 Speaker 1: even though we obviously don't watch a lot of women's 483 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 1: soccer in the house, because who would but the women's 484 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: soccer team was still very, very pop in this country. 485 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 1: Like fifteen minutes ago, they were America's sweethearts. A look 486 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,240 Speaker 1: at all the cuecos playing soccer, win it and all 487 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,480 Speaker 1: we love them. Everyone had a high opinion of US 488 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:15,640 Speaker 1: women's soccer. Today at least half the country hates their guns. Why, well, 489 00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: here's Megan Rappino. 490 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:24,080 Speaker 2: The moment's kneeling were difficult for you, Yeah, it was. 491 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 2: It was people's reaction. 492 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 10: Or a little bit. 493 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 11: Yeah, obviously knowing you know, especially after the first time 494 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 11: that I did it, you know, knowing how angry people were. 495 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 11: But also it was difficult and heavy. But I had 496 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 11: this immense sense of pride and responsibility in doing that. 497 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 11: So I think that's where the strength of doing it 498 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 11: a number of times came from. 499 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: Our athletes are all left as activists. Now that's really 500 00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 1: what matters to them. Our society, our culture has rotted 501 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 1: to a point where that's what's incentive eyed and so 502 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: now that's what they prioritize above all. Megan Rappino is 503 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:12,120 Speaker 1: a champion. She just blew the game, got eliminated from 504 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: the World Cup. 505 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,240 Speaker 2: What's she most proud of? This is what she had 506 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 2: to say. 507 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,959 Speaker 10: But when you reflect on the impact you've made on 508 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 10: this team. Is there a memory that stands out to 509 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:34,439 Speaker 10: you right now in this moment? Oh, I mean probably 510 00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 10: equal pay chance, equal pay chance. 511 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 1: All those young girls watching soccer players. How many young 512 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 1: soccer players women are watching this show right now? How 513 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,080 Speaker 1: many watch her? And you aspire to maybe be on 514 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: the women's national team. Maybe maybe you go to college 515 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 1: on a scholarship, one day, win a championship looking up 516 00:26:56,200 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: to her, what's she gonna say? Greatest part was when 517 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: I wind about having equal pay even though we don't 518 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:06,040 Speaker 1: bring in the same money the men's team does. That's 519 00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 1: what America's entertainment and sports have become. They were infected 520 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: and taken over because once again we didn't conserve it. 521 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,959 Speaker 1: We called ourselves conservatives for so long, but wed nothing. 522 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 1: We failed to conserve any of our cultural institutions. 523 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 2: And while we. 524 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 1: Were complaining that nobody cared what the athlete thinks, No 525 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: one cares what the actor thinks, the Communists were looking 526 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:35,280 Speaker 1: and they were understanding, Oh, people very much do care 527 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 1: what the actor and athlete thinks. Let's go take it over. 528 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even go into NASCAR. We just got done 529 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:46,200 Speaker 1: suspending a driver because he liked a meme, a funny 530 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 1: meme of George Floyd. 531 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: That's NASCAR. That's not women's soccer. 532 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,560 Speaker 1: That's mister Red, White and Blue Patriot, Nashcar. Oh yeah, 533 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,359 Speaker 1: that's how far sports has fallen. The corporate world has 534 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 1: fallen in this country. We'll talk to Steve Das about 535 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,399 Speaker 1: some of this stuff here just the moment before we 536 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 1: talked to Steve, Let's talk about the air. 537 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: You breathe the air I breathe. 538 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,680 Speaker 1: You know why it smells so good after you walk outside. 539 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 1: There's been a thunderstorm and you walk outside and you 540 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 1: smell it near It smells great, doesn't it. Let's because 541 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: the air got cleaned. It's part of how God cleans 542 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,560 Speaker 1: the air. You know that you can have that inside 543 00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,800 Speaker 1: of your home without the rain water damage. Eating pure thunderstorm. 544 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,119 Speaker 1: They clean your air. It scrubs it for you, no 545 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: filters to replace. It's just this little black box. You 546 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,480 Speaker 1: plug it in the outlet in the wall. It fixed 547 00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: my allergies, but the viruses, mold and he odors in 548 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: your air, Eating pure kills them all. They sell three 549 00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:46,520 Speaker 1: packs two hundred dollars off. 550 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,640 Speaker 2: Go get a three pack. You'll end up not owning 551 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 2: nine like I do. 552 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:52,440 Speaker 1: But go get a three pat put one where you sleep, 553 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 1: one where your kids sleep, one in the kitchen, living room, 554 00:28:55,760 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 1: eatenpuredeals dot com code. 555 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 2: Jesse's how you get that discount? All right, we'll be back. 556 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: College football. I bet you think we'd never lead with that. Well, 557 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: we've never talked college football, well, not much on the show. 558 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: But Steve Days, obviously great host, made the movie Nefarious, 559 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: best selling author. He was talking a lot about it 560 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: today and he talks about it so much it intrigued 561 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,400 Speaker 1: me why it actually matters? 562 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:30,120 Speaker 2: Why you and I should maybe care? 563 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: Steve. Okay, first, let's lead with this for the non 564 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: sports fans, college football realignments. 565 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 2: What is that? What are you even talking about? 566 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 12: What's happening is you're watching a bunch of giant corporations 567 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 12: called conferences in college football are consolidating into mega corporations. 568 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 12: Does that storyline sound familiar to you at all, Jesse? 569 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 12: Do you work in an industry at all where maybe 570 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,480 Speaker 12: this occurred in a previous era to try to hold 571 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:03,960 Speaker 12: off tech logical advances and rather than admit certain free 572 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:06,760 Speaker 12: market realities. What's going on with college football as a 573 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 12: metaphor for what's happening on an institutional level all together. 574 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 12: From nineteen eighty four, when the Supreme Court said that 575 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 12: the NCAA could no longer regulate who was on TV 576 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 12: and how often that that was antitrust. From nineteen eighty 577 00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 12: four until twenty fourteen, with the advent of the college 578 00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:27,479 Speaker 12: Football Playoff, few pursuits in America better exemplified free market 579 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 12: principles than college football. Everybody was making money hand over fist. 580 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:36,080 Speaker 12: There was innovation, There was diversity both Every conference had 581 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 12: its favorite broadcasters and networks. Every even on the field, 582 00:30:39,800 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 12: the schematic differences. You know, you go back and watch, 583 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:44,720 Speaker 12: you know, black and white footage of the game pre 584 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:47,400 Speaker 12: and post World War Two, everybody's running the same offense. 585 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 12: Now now there's a lot more diversity and innovation, both 586 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,880 Speaker 12: in terms of the corporate structure and also the on 587 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 12: the field product. It becomes the second most popular sport 588 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 12: in America. And then in twenty fourteen it decides we 589 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 12: need real playoff and it creates the second largest TV 590 00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 12: rights event in the country other than the Olympics and 591 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 12: the Super Bowl. And at that point the money became 592 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:13,960 Speaker 12: so obvious and so huge that it just refused. At 593 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,240 Speaker 12: the same time, all these progressive presidents refused to adapt, 594 00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,840 Speaker 12: and so now the players are still the labor. They're 595 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 12: still operating under a generation's old paradigm of an education 596 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 12: for playing, even though the quality of that education is 597 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,640 Speaker 12: in the toilet. As you talk about a lot, the 598 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:30,720 Speaker 12: quality education's out worth the paper it's printed on in 599 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 12: many cases, and then the amount of money they're generating 600 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 12: compared to the value of that education. The model is 601 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 12: upside down. And so the same presidents who pay Bernie 602 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 12: Sanders fifty grand to come in and you go on 603 00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 12: and on about injustice, don't want to advance or evolve 604 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 12: the business model of the players at all. This allows 605 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:54,480 Speaker 12: the hard left media to pick these players as Jay 606 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,080 Speaker 12: Guavera testimonies, and so now they're all victims, even though yes, 607 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 12: they deserve more. But let's face it, these guys are 608 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,640 Speaker 12: in a charmed life compared to everybody else on these campuses. 609 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,760 Speaker 12: But now they're all victims. And so this entire thing 610 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 12: now is caught in the nexus of hard left media 611 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 12: that doesn't believe in reform, that doesn't believe in polishing 612 00:32:12,560 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 12: stained glass windows, but destroying them. Only the most radical 613 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 12: solutions will work, and the fact that it believed it 614 00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 12: could ignore free market economics for so long. At the 615 00:32:22,840 --> 00:32:26,760 Speaker 12: same time, there's technological innovations with streaming. What's happened here 616 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 12: is a metaphor for what is happening in virtually every 617 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 12: other sector of our economy and culture, and college football 618 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 12: is just maybe the most high profile example of it. 619 00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 1: Okay, well, so we can better understand how it's going 620 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: to end with the other parts of our culture. 621 00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 2: How does this end for college football? 622 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 12: Steve Well, you can either live by free market principles 623 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 12: or die by something that will be even worse than 624 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 12: what they will enact. I think a lot of times 625 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,720 Speaker 12: on the right Jesse, over the years we have preached 626 00:32:57,280 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 12: markets as a salvationary construct. 627 00:32:59,600 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 8: They are not. 628 00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:04,480 Speaker 12: Free Markets do not lift societies out of their immorality. 629 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:08,760 Speaker 12: We are for free markets in acknowledging the immorality of people, 630 00:33:08,840 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 12: meaning that we need options, competition, checks and balance. As 631 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 12: human nature cannot be trusted, it must be incentivized. You know, 632 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 12: these people called the Pilgrims landed here seven hundred years ago, 633 00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 12: and they wanted They wanted to live out the Book 634 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 12: of Acts and keep everything in common and the young 635 00:33:23,280 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 12: men didn't want to work for the old men, and 636 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,080 Speaker 12: that first winter half of them died. And the next winner, 637 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 12: John Winthrop was like, shoot, man, I got to incentivize 638 00:33:29,440 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 12: the young men to work. 639 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 8: So here's what we're going to do. 640 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 12: Everybody, Like in the twelve tribes of Israel, everybody, every 641 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 12: clan gets their own piece of land. The bigger clans 642 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 12: get bigger piece of land. They got more mouths to feed. 643 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 12: But the bigger your harvest next fall, the more lands 644 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 12: you will get. He incentivizes them to work. He incentivized 645 00:33:46,560 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 12: them to achieve. 646 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 8: What happened. 647 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 12: America was born with that decision. We have chosen to, 648 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 12: on one hand, act as if free markets just magically 649 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 12: make people moral. They don't, or we've acted as if 650 00:33:57,440 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 12: free markets themselves are immoral. 651 00:33:59,480 --> 00:33:59,840 Speaker 8: They're not. 652 00:34:00,280 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 12: They're actually a construct that understands the morality of the 653 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 12: human condition. But on these college campuses, at the same 654 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:10,680 Speaker 12: time that they were reaping in these billions of dollars Jesse, 655 00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 12: all of their curriculum, all of their ideology, was preaching 656 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:17,240 Speaker 12: against the very thing that was causing them to get wealthy. 657 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 12: Sooner or later, that center cannot hold. Eventually, the reality 658 00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:22,320 Speaker 12: of your worldview comes calling. 659 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 1: Okay, Steve, these institutions they've taken over are so critical 660 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 1: to us as a nation, beyond well beyond college football. 661 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 2: As you know, you talk about this all the time 662 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 2: on your great show. 663 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:41,160 Speaker 1: What's the solution taking back the institutions or just saying 664 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:43,680 Speaker 1: screw it and building our own institutions. 665 00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 12: I think the first thing that must happen is punishment. 666 00:34:47,520 --> 00:34:50,760 Speaker 12: The reality is that we don't have the wherewithal yet. 667 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 12: There's a few companies and they advertise a lot on 668 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 12: shows like You and I that are at the you know, 669 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 12: the trailblazing edge, the dawn of the birth of a 670 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,480 Speaker 12: parallelic economy. But we don't have a generation to rebuild 671 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:04,879 Speaker 12: these things. I mean, the clock here, this thing called 672 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 12: America is ticking right now. And so what we need 673 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,439 Speaker 12: is something that would shock the system. What we need 674 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,360 Speaker 12: is to punish people for doing bad things. For example, 675 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 12: the conversation that was held last week. We have to 676 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 12: understand that a generation of young people were essentially victims 677 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 12: of predatory lending, told they had to go to college 678 00:35:23,760 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 12: or they were less of a person. And now they've 679 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 12: got degrees that mean nothing and all kinds of and 680 00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 12: that is that they have one and all kinds of 681 00:35:29,840 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 12: debt they can't pay back. Now, we can't just pay 682 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 12: off their debt because that makes the people who did 683 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,120 Speaker 12: pay their debts subsidize. 684 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 2: Them as well. 685 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 12: So who should pay make the universities pay put it 686 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 12: on them. These are now leans against. You want more funding, 687 00:35:44,360 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 12: you want more funding from the state, these are leans 688 00:35:46,239 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 12: against that you're going to pay. These are offsets. We 689 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:52,680 Speaker 12: need to start punishing people for poor behavior. That's the 690 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 12: number one thing that has to happen. The idea that 691 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 12: we have a generation now to just go out and 692 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 12: build our own thing. I wish we did. This is 693 00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 12: something we should it had started twenty years ago. We don't. 694 00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 12: These institutions they're like tumors. They metastasized. They're too embedded 695 00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:07,960 Speaker 12: in the culture. We need to come up with remedies 696 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,760 Speaker 12: now that make punishment happen so they fear making poor 697 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:13,000 Speaker 12: or immoral decisions. 698 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 1: Steve, I was thinking about this the other day. I 699 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:20,360 Speaker 1: was actually talking about this last week. I was thinking 700 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 1: about the old Terry Tait commercials. Do you remember the 701 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 1: Terry Tait office linebacker commercials? The Rebok ones where the 702 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 1: linebacker would run through the office smearing everybody on Sundays 703 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: and they were like the funniest, greatest things ever. And 704 00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: I was talking to my kids about this, and I 705 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 1: pulled them up on YouTube and I was showing my kids. 706 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,279 Speaker 1: I said, I just want you to understand. This used 707 00:36:39,280 --> 00:36:42,000 Speaker 1: to be entertainment in this country. This used to be sports, 708 00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: Like you could sit down and I could go get 709 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:46,400 Speaker 1: some chicken wings while you watch the commercials on a Sunday. 710 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: And I thought about this. This weekend, the women's soccer 711 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 1: team crapped all over America and lost Nascars of course 712 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,799 Speaker 1: in the news because one of their drivers liked some 713 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: offensive George Floyd meme. I want my kids to have 714 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: that again, to have what you and I add. And 715 00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:05,359 Speaker 1: it's gone, but it's freshly gone. So can we get 716 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 1: it back. 717 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:08,080 Speaker 8: Only through punishment. 718 00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 12: People have to have to feel the sting of bad 719 00:37:11,239 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 12: decisions if they don't. You and I know this as parents. 720 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 12: You and I know this as entrepreneurs with our own 721 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,040 Speaker 12: shows in this space, whatever you incentivize you will get 722 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 12: more of you. Whatever you de incentivize, you will get 723 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 12: less of. Right now, there is really outside of a 724 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 12: few examples like what's happening with bud light and a 725 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 12: few other things. There are no real examples of people 726 00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 12: being punished for bad behavior, and until that changes, you're 727 00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:37,920 Speaker 12: just going to get more of this. 728 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: He is Steve Days of the Great Steve Day Show. 729 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 2: Thank you, brother.

I do the same thing 788 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:39,160 Speaker 2: you do. 789 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: I get on my phone and I'm looking up recipes, 790 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:43,399 Speaker 1: recipe after recipe after recipe, and. 791 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:44,960 Speaker 2: They're all different, all of them. 792 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: Got to cook it at two twenty five, got to 793 00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:49,280 Speaker 1: cook it at one pint eighty, cook it for four hours, 794 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,040 Speaker 1: cook it for twenty four hours, cook it for a while, 795 00:40:52,080 --> 00:40:55,200 Speaker 1: then cover it, don't cook it or don't cover it. 796 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 1: If it million different things. So here's what I did. 797 00:40:57,800 --> 00:40:59,680 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna tell you what I did. And yes, 798 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: that's what it looks like. And by the way, for 799 00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,840 Speaker 1: those people saying it's burnt, that's called bark. Your brisket 800 00:41:05,920 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 1: better looked like that after you smoke it, by the way, 801 00:41:07,960 --> 00:41:12,840 Speaker 1: all right, I put mine on the smoker, pellet smoker, 802 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 1: no big deal. 803 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 2: I put mine on the smoker. 804 00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:20,120 Speaker 1: About eleven hours at one eighty. But I had a 805 00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: temperature probe in it, monitoring the temperature the whole time 806 00:41:23,040 --> 00:41:26,000 Speaker 1: one eighty about eleven hours. Then I decided it was 807 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,000 Speaker 1: probably where I wanted it to be, but it couldn't 808 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 1: get there at attempt. So I was trying to get 809 00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 1: it to two o two.
