1
00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio the George

2
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:10,760
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong

3
00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:18,079
Speaker 1: and Getty, I know he Armstrong and Yetty.

4
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 2: Kim Kardashian's chilling testimony about being bound, gagged, and held

5
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,840
Speaker 2: at gunpoint when masked men burst into her hotel room

6
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: in Paris. Kardashian in Paris facing the suspects in court

7
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 2: they're accused of stealing more than six million dollars in

8
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 2: jewelry during the heist in twenty sixteen. She told the

9
00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:40,760
Speaker 2: court she absolutely thought she was going to die.

10
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, that did.

11
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 3: That didn't get as much attention as it probably should

12
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 3: have at the time, I guess because a lot of

13
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:48,400
Speaker 3: people have kind of a knee jerk dislike of Kim

14
00:00:48,479 --> 00:00:50,519
Speaker 3: Kardashian in that whole thing, or.

15
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: Assume everything they do is a publicity stunt, right, But

16
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:55,560
Speaker 1: she should remember that was one of the questions at

17
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: the time.

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 3: She legit had a gun to her head and thought

19
00:00:57,680 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 3: she was going to die and had every reason to think.

20
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: So that's rough. AnyWho, I travel with very few jewels,

21
00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:08,640
Speaker 1: practically none, no, exactly none.

22
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:11,199
Speaker 3: Isn't that something here in Paris, but you gotta bleak

23
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 3: bring six million dollars worth of jewels with you so

24
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:16,080
Speaker 3: you can go out to eat at night.

25
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:17,759
Speaker 1: That's some lifestyle.

26
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:22,480
Speaker 3: The other big trial going on, that one's going on

27
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 3: in Paris. The other big one that's getting so much

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: attention is going on in New York today. And p

29
00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 3: Diddy's girlfriend is back on the stand no longer. They're

30
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 3: a strange I believe at this point your.

31
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 1: Friend married and has soon to be two kids with

32
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: her husband.

33
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's on the stand again. And some of the

34
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,520
Speaker 3: testimony from that we'll get from Katie Green a little

35
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 3: bit later as that all comes out.

36
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 1: Also a couple of presidential retrospectives. I'm excited about. A

37
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: list of foreign gifts to the president, from elephants to

38
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: in line skates, which we briefly referenced yesterday. And also

39
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: a history of presidents getting played by Vladimir Putin embarrassing.

40
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: And there's a one more. Oh, the whole the plain

41
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: thing is not going to happen, as we'll discuss going forward,

42
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 1: but a handful of stories affectionately known as bengo bango

43
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: bongo behind the scenes, just stuff that's worth touching on.

44
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: If not talking about at lengths, but the headline women

45
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:23,320
Speaker 1: are drinking more and doctors are worried. Women are experiencing

46
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 1: rising alcohol related deaths at a much faster clipped than men.

47
00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 1: Men's drinking is more or less stayed the same, but

48
00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:33,679
Speaker 1: women who turned thirty five between twenty eighteen and twenty

49
00:02:33,800 --> 00:02:38,160
Speaker 1: nineteen were nearly sixty percent more likely to report recent

50
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 1: binge drinking or alcohol use disorder symptoms than women who

51
00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 1: turned similar age in the nineties, according to a twenty

52
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:48,679
Speaker 1: twenty three report published in the journal Addiction, So more

53
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 1: liver disease suspected. This could be contributing to rising rates

54
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,640
Speaker 1: of breast cancer and other cancers. Why would that be

55
00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: not having kids? You think that's it? Yeah, I don't.

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:04,919
Speaker 1: I don't know that to be true. If I just.

57
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 3: Amzer change in that from I mean, like we were

58
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 3: comparing it to the fifties, sure, but compared to the nineties,

59
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,840
Speaker 3: has there been a major change in that? Uh?

60
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 1: You well, yeah, birth rates are declining and when you

61
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,640
Speaker 1: have children is getting older and older. I don't have

62
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 1: the numbers in front of me, but that's indisputable, I think,

63
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,239
Speaker 1: And just you know, as a dad who my kids

64
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,519
Speaker 1: are grown, but I'm having to deal with children. Is

65
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: a disincentive to get hammered in a lot of cases

66
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: at a lot of times a day, you know, and

67
00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 1: just you can't if you're you know, doing what you're

68
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 1: supposed to be.

69
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 3: I think it's culturally changed a lot too. It would

70
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 3: have been insane. I think, like, not that many years

71
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 3: ago for moms at a Little league game to have

72
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 3: some drinky poohs in their cups while they're watching, And

73
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: now I think it's kind of expected.

74
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:03,640
Speaker 1: I've hanness. I got to admit as a cocktail enthusiast,

75
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:09,360
Speaker 1: I'm astounded by that. I'm shocked by it. And my kids,

76
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 1: you know, we're playing sports seven to twenty years ago,

77
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,279
Speaker 1: so it's not like I had kids in the nineteen thirties. Yeah,

78
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,440
Speaker 1: the idea of boozing at a game, I would be

79
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: shocked by. But maybe I'm naive. Beer, spirit and wine

80
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 1: companies have worked to bring in more women customers for

81
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: the obvious reasons. Some research said the alcohol industry is

82
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 1: marketing directly toward women country music. Maybe you blame country music, hm,

83
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 1: I certainly do, But are are they marketing toward women

84
00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: because they are a market or did the industry create

85
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: a market. Probably a bit of both. Anyway, Gal's be careful.

86
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 1: It's bad for your health, but it makes marginal looking

87
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: guys better looking, trust me, and more interest makes annoying

88
00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 1: people less annoying. Now, I want to get to the

89
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,160
Speaker 1: ongoing budget negotiation stuff briefly. A quick note. Yeah, the

90
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,720
Speaker 1: judge has reduced these sentence for the Menendez brothers. Their

91
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: life sentence is now fifty years to life, making them

92
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 1: eligible for parole. And indeed, uh, there's some belief that

93
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 1: the judge is gonna turn them loose. They've served thirty

94
00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: five years of a fifty year to life sentence. Now

95
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 1: with the new sentence, have been doing lots of volunteer work.

96
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 1: You've kept their noses clean, have helped other people find

97
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 1: themselves in prison. Blabba, haven't murdered any parents zero zero.

98
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 1: Well there's technicality there, but yeah and so and they've

99
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,839
Speaker 1: had family members come and testify. Yeah, they're good fellows.

100
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 1: You out to turn them live. I saw that yesterday

101
00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 1: on the news.

102
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,160
Speaker 3: So yeah, family members who had lived there in the house,

103
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: a new mom and dad. Really, well, who are now testifying?

104
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 3: You gotta let them out? Let them out. Our family

105
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:53,039
Speaker 3: has been wrecked by this. Who would be good for

106
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 3: the family? Let them out? What an interesting story. I

107
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 3: haven't watched any of the Netflix stuff or been following this,

108
00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 3: so I haven't gotten pulled the Menndez brother thing.

109
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: I just kind of had been assuming all along they weren't.

110
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,719
Speaker 3: Going to get out. But Gavin Newsom's got a decision

111
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,920
Speaker 3: to make. From what I understand from the news last night,

112
00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:09,559
Speaker 3: Well here's bad news.

113
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 1: Eric and Lyle. First of all, thanks for listening to

114
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 1: the Armstrong and Getty show, and thanks for not shotgunning

115
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: anybody lately. But Fellas, his decision will be based on

116
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 1: one thing and one thing only. Will it help him

117
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 1: get into the White House or hurt his chances to

118
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: get elected president. It will have nothing to do with you,

119
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: your crimes, your reform, the Lord Jesus Christ, California's laws

120
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 1: and traditions, nothing but his lust for the Oval Office.

121
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 3: Interesting. You're probably right. So do you think this helps

122
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:41,880
Speaker 3: him nationally or hurts him? Probably not a huge deal

123
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 3: either way.

124
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't, Yeah, I don't. I haven't thought about

125
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 1: this case much. I haven't watched the documentaries, partly because

126
00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: it's become increasingly clear to me, having followed the saga

127
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 1: of a handful of documentaries, and like super popular podcasts,

128
00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:59,359
Speaker 1: you can by selectively editing and shading and leaving once

129
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: this end, leaving that out, you can wildly mislead people. Yeah,

130
00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: and I don't particularly feel like getting misled.

131
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 3: So anyway, So you brought up a little bit ago

132
00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 3: that Republicans are becoming Democrats around this whole medicaid thing

133
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: in the budget and everything that's going.

134
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: On among other programs. Yeah, so it's kind of interesting.

135
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: Today the New York Times is a big battle going

136
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,239
Speaker 3: on in the opinion pages. This is in just Today's

137
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: New York Times. There's a guest essay by Josh Howley,

138
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: the very trumpy senator from Missouri. Don't cut Medicaid. Republicans

139
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,080
Speaker 3: should embrace their working class voters.

140
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,080
Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah.

141
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 3: And then there's a guest essay from Robert F. Kennedy,

142
00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: doctor OZ and a couple other people in the Trump

143
00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,280
Speaker 3: White House.

144
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 1: If you want welfare and can work, you must.

145
00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 3: As leaders of the agencies that oversee the largest welfare

146
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 3: programs in the nation, we fear that welfare has become

147
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: a trap of dependency. So you got that side coming

148
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:04,080
Speaker 3: out of the Trump crowd on that, and then this

149
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 3: guest essay, what medicaid cuts would do to my rural

150
00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 3: hospital small town America depends on healthcare systems like mine.

151
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 3: I'm not sure we'll be able to keep our doors

152
00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 3: open if the Republican Congress cuts Medicaid.

153
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: I need to come up with a name for that argument,

154
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 1: because I bring it up semi regularly. The last argument

155
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,600
Speaker 1: is the argument that we have become so dependent on

156
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 1: a bad, perverse program you can't end it. We must

157
00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 1: continue a bad perverse policy, right.

158
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 3: That's what I was thinking yesterday when I was watching

159
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,840
Speaker 3: the governor of New Mexico on one of the Sunday shows.

160
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 3: Because they have the most people on Medicaid in New

161
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 3: Mexico of any state for some reason.

162
00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, because it's wildly liberal. So embrace the Obamacare expansion

163
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: of Medicaid wholeheartedly, which then brings in lots and lots

164
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 1: of federal dollars.

165
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:59,679
Speaker 3: My angle is just this happens a lot with government programs.

166
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 3: You come up with the worst case scenario and then

167
00:09:03,840 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 3: feel like that needs to apply to everyone forever because.

168
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 1: Of the worst case scenario. Yeah, that's not the way

169
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: to make a policy. Yeah, what do we call it

170
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: the heroin addiction argument? It's easier to give up heroin

171
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,280
Speaker 1: than it is to give up a giant program that

172
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:27,200
Speaker 1: is funding you know, a lot of your critical medical

173
00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 1: institutions right just because you let it and it's handy,

174
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: it's great.

175
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 3: It frees up money to hand out to other cronies.

176
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 3: But your overall point is definitely right. If Josh Howley

177
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 3: and in his crowd gets a way of look, the

178
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: Republican Party is now the party of the working class

179
00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 3: and the lava working class.

180
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:45,000
Speaker 1: They want the free the medicare.

181
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:50,679
Speaker 3: Then there's nobody fighting for go out there and get

182
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,560
Speaker 3: a job that supplies you with health insurance. Nobody's pushing

183
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 3: that idea or even just to because a lot of

184
00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 3: the Republican proposals right now are a little half asked.

185
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 3: From my point, you so to even touch it risk

186
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 3: somebody being able to demogog it and saying you're.

187
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: Trying to take a food out of the mouths of

188
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 1: starving children. So let's not even touch it. In fact,

189
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,960
Speaker 1: let's grow it. It would help with the working class.

190
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:17,720
Speaker 1: What do you think And you've touched on this before,

191
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 1: there are no political parties. Now, the so called parties

192
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 1: are just an expression of whoever is at their head

193
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:26,119
Speaker 1: at that point. So you can have a complete switcheroo.

194
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,360
Speaker 1: Are we, like, I don't know, four years away from

195
00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: the Democrats being hardcore physical conservatives could be if they

196
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 1: think that's the way to take power. Nobody has any principles,

197
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 1: right hmmm? I think now you know what I would

198
00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,920
Speaker 1: like to announce my retirement today. I'm retiring from the

199
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:48,000
Speaker 1: world of talk radio because ideas don't matter anymore. My

200
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 1: retirement will commence on a date nonspecific in the future.

201
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: I announced that I am quitting at some point because

202
00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,920
Speaker 1: there's no point I am despairing. I've just Michael, make

203
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: a note, make a note of the time and the date. Okay,

204
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:08,160
Speaker 1: Joe despaired on May the fourteenth, twenty twenty five. It's

205
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 1: a Wednesday. That's a good day to despair on, isn't it. Eh?

206
00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:13,599
Speaker 1: You know?

207
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 3: Or you could just not talk about medicare leave that

208
00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,199
Speaker 3: out of your conversation, which probably seems like a good

209
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 3: idea to.

210
00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: Me, and pretend we're not spending our children and grandchildren

211
00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:33,720
Speaker 1: into debtors prison. All right, fine, fine, oh whatever, Michael

212
00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:37,560
Speaker 1: make the note Jack also despairs, apparently about a minute later.

213
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: One minute later. Well, despairing does tend to drag people

214
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: with you, you know, it's it's a vortex of gloom. True. True.

215
00:11:48,880 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 1: You hang around people like that, they will suck you down. Right.

216
00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:53,280
Speaker 1: We got more in the Waista here.

217
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,080
Speaker 4: So, according to a new book, Joe Biden couldn't even

218
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 4: recognize George Clooney at a fundraiser last June, leaving the.

219
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:08,079
Speaker 1: Star quote shaken to his core. But don't worry, George.

220
00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 4: When Joe ran into Obama, he told him he loved

221
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:17,080
Speaker 4: him in driving Miss Daisy.

222
00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 3: By the way. George Clooney then wrote an op and

223
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:21,000
Speaker 3: about that. We all remember that. So yet I'm yet

224
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 3: to hear one even slightly surprising nugget from that book,

225
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:30,400
Speaker 3: anything that even brushes up against new information coming up

226
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 3: from The New York Times, The Three Secrets to Falling

227
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 3: in Love with exercise.

228
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: This could change your life, Oh please? First of all,

229
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: breaking news, breaking news, The news breaks the Donkey Breeze.

230
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: In one of the most violent political texts towards the

231
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:57,520
Speaker 1: center in American history, Gathy Newsome, the oily one says

232
00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 1: he wants the state of California to stop enrolling low

233
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,040
Speaker 1: income I legal immigrants in a state funded health care program.

234
00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 1: Newsom reverses course on taxpayer funded healthcare for illegal immigrants.

235
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:17,400
Speaker 3: How bold, how bold to come out against free health

236
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 3: care for illegals.

237
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: Good lord, yeah, a lowe in cal Unicornia. That's shocking. Well,

238
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: I remember when he.

239
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,839
Speaker 3: Kind of hinted that maybe he thought dude shouldn't be

240
00:13:32,880 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 3: in girls' sports, and the left wing went nuts. I'll

241
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 3: be interested to see what the uh if he gets

242
00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 3: attacked for this.

243
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:44,079
Speaker 1: Under Newsom's oily new plan, the state would not end

244
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 1: coverage for illegal immigrants who are already enrolled in medical However,

245
00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:53,520
Speaker 1: the state would begin charging adults with quote unsatisfactory immigrant status.

246
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:58,319
Speaker 1: It's so cute, a monthly premium of one hundred dollars

247
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:03,400
Speaker 1: beginning in twenty twenty. Wow, So two years from now,

248
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: if you have quote unquote unsatisfactory immigrant status, two years

249
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: from now, you'll be charged a monthly one hundred dollars premium.

250
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,880
Speaker 3: Good luck running for president on illegals should get free healthcare.

251
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: So you perform that program. We're taking on the challenges,

252
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 1: we're leading the nation.

253
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 3: Okay, So to have time for this, Michael, it's kind

254
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 3: of about three minutes.

255
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:26,280
Speaker 1: It's kind of funny.

256
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,920
Speaker 3: Their headline is the opposite of kind of what they

257
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 3: say right in the article three secrets to falling in

258
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 3: love with exercise, and one of the secrets is don't

259
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,120
Speaker 3: expect to be in love with exercise, so not a

260
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,920
Speaker 3: minute that makes sense.

261
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: Don't try to love every moment.

262
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 3: Many people think you should reach a point where you

263
00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,960
Speaker 3: just love each and every second of every exercise, and

264
00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 3: you love every exercise, the idea that everybody who's exercising

265
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 3: loves it all the time. I exercise very regularly, especially

266
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 3: when I don't have whooping cough.

267
00:14:56,240 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: But I hate it.

268
00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 3: I've hated every second of running I've ever done in

269
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:04,080
Speaker 3: my life. I've never one step ever. You're doing it

270
00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:06,320
Speaker 3: for other reasons, so don't expect to love it or

271
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 3: I guess their point is, don't think that everybody else

272
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: that's doing it loves it and there's something wrong with you.

273
00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 3: Strive for momentum, not motivation. Don't wait for the motivation

274
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 3: to come along. Just do it on a daily basis

275
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 3: until it becomes a habit, and then you've got momentum

276
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 3: and it'll just carry you along as opposed to is

277
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,680
Speaker 3: I just don't feel like it today. Well that's just

278
00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,360
Speaker 3: you know, Yeah, that's a bad emotion. We all hate that.

279
00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I need to, but I don't want to.

280
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 3: And you get past that. Has anybody ever regretted when

281
00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 3: they overcame that feeling, whether it's for exercising or finally

282
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 3: cleaning the kitchen or mowing the lawn or whatever.

283
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 1: It is, No, absolutely not right.

284
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 3: And man it takes once you get over the hump

285
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 3: and gets started, it's so easy. Yeah, but that hump, man,

286
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:59,120
Speaker 3: it's quite the hump. And then this one, sorry mel

287
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 3: Brooks reference there. This one doesn't apply to me. Maybe

288
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 3: it applies to you. Find a community. One reason that

289
00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:10,040
Speaker 3: exercise makes us happy is that Foster's connections others. So

290
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,080
Speaker 3: join a running club or a zoomba class or whatever

291
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:14,520
Speaker 3: it is. You do it, and do it with other people.

292
00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 3: That'll bring you happiness.

293
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: Don't look at me, don't talk to me, all right,

294
00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:18,880
Speaker 1: to pretend I'm the hareplace.

295
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 3: When I show up to the gym and it's completely empty,

296
00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 3: I think awesome. I don't think oh darna, I wish

297
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 3: I had more people to hang out with. Where's my community?

298
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 1: Well, the title of that article shouldn't be how to

299
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,440
Speaker 1: fall in love with exercising. It ought to be how

300
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: to deal with the arranged marriage of exercise. Look, he's

301
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:43,400
Speaker 1: a decent enough guy. No, I don't love him. I'm

302
00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,400
Speaker 1: not really attracted to him, but my parents and his

303
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,960
Speaker 1: parents have decided it'd be a good match. So here

304
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: we are, where the where are the freeways?

305
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 3: Trump gave an astounding foreign policy speech yesterday that got

306
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 3: zero coverage because I guess the media takes him seriously.

307
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 3: We can touch on that at some point, among other things.

308
00:17:04,720 --> 00:17:06,040
Speaker 3: I hope you can stick around if you miss a

309
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,680
Speaker 3: segment get our podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand.

310
00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty.

311
00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 4: Bill Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan Hudson came in third in the

312
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 4: Miss main pageant. She lost points during the Q and

313
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 4: A when she mentioned her charity work taking care of

314
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:22,800
Speaker 4: the elderly.

315
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: Oh, the shots just keep on coming. So plenty of

316
00:17:34,119 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 1: really serious, fair important to consider coming up, including well,

317
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 1: this isn't that serious, but this is my favorite lead

318
00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: of an article I've come across in a long time.

319
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: Lead sentence. Michael Royer has been secretly tossing his wife's

320
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: socks into the trash for.

321
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 3: Years, secretly tossing his wife socks in the trash for years.

322
00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:01,480
Speaker 1: He throws away your socks, clandestine sock chuck her because

323
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: she's wearing socks that are all worn out and he

324
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 1: it's about clutter in general. Yeah, I thought it was

325
00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:11,480
Speaker 1: pretty interesting. But anyway, back to Bill Belichick. In is

326
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:16,800
Speaker 1: incredibly young pageant queen gold digging or whatever she's up to.

327
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:20,399
Speaker 3: Girlfriend really states something or other because she has a

328
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,920
Speaker 3: eight million dollars in real estate.

329
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:27,000
Speaker 1: Now at age twenty four. How'd that happen?

330
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:27,280
Speaker 3: Oh?

331
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:34,600
Speaker 1: Oh, anyway, so she is rapidly becoming a national figure,

332
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:40,080
Speaker 1: a universally known figure who is mostly on the receiving

333
00:18:40,200 --> 00:18:44,399
Speaker 1: end of jokes, which is interesting. Andrew Styles, who writes

334
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,919
Speaker 1: with a pen dipped in sarcasm, I'm afraid for the

335
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 1: Free Beacon. His headline is Jordan Hudson outshined and outclassed

336
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 1: by a historic transgender contestant. It's so called beauty pageant.

337
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 1: Jordan Hudson, the widely despised girlfriend of cheating NFL coach

338
00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick's despised, That's what I'm saying. I do a

339
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:11,000
Speaker 1: despiser well, you're not widely You're just you. She's the

340
00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 1: punchline of jokes that I get. Yeah, I think despised

341
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,200
Speaker 1: might be a little strong. I think. So I see

342
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: what's going on?

343
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 3: You wrote with a gypton sarcasm. Doesn't everybody see what's

344
00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 3: going on here? Seems like a trade off on both ends. Yeah, yeah,

345
00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 3: this is pretty funny, though. The widely despied play state

346
00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 3: humiliating third or over the weekend at the so called

347
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:37,280
Speaker 3: beauty pageant in Maine, one of America's least attractive states. Well, like,

348
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,280
Speaker 3: I'll let you yesterday and then I promise I will

349
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 3: shut up so you can.

350
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: Get to the writing. But like, shut up, don't. I

351
00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 1: don't care. Like I mentioned yesterday, I found it interesting as.

352
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:47,719
Speaker 3: I read a little about the whole pageant world and

353
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:53,280
Speaker 3: how you can All you have to do is like

354
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 3: get a post office box for a certain amount of time,

355
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 3: and you can compete in that state as if you're

356
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 3: from that state and there's a a bunch of women

357
00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 3: that are constantly like you finished second in Maine. Next year,

358
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,840
Speaker 3: you know, you establish a post office box in Indiana

359
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,159
Speaker 3: and compete there and hope that you win, so that

360
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,200
Speaker 3: you can go to the and it's just you know that,

361
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 3: that's just that world.

362
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, it reminds me of like the your amateur championships

363
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,480
Speaker 1: in golf. The guy who wins the California State am

364
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:22,920
Speaker 1: might be from Missouri, for instance. Yeah, it's not always

365
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 1: that way. I remember when I when I was in.

366
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 3: College, the local girl from Colby, Kansas, she won Miss

367
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 3: Colby set down with the seven thousand people, she won

368
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 3: the county fair thing, and then the state and then

369
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 3: became Miss American.

370
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,600
Speaker 1: It was a really big deal. So every once in

371
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 1: a while that does happen. Back when there was purity

372
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: to American beauty pageants, Well that doesn't.

373
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 3: Seem incredibly tawdry. I mean, beauty pageants are dumb anyway. Anyway,

374
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,280
Speaker 3: back to your story, Howell.

375
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: In second place contestant, the winner, even Benjamin are significantly

376
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,960
Speaker 1: class year and more attractive than Hudson. According to a

377
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 1: Washington Free Beacon analysis, the top two finishers were not

378
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,440
Speaker 1: the only contestants who outshoon Hudson in terms of class

379
00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:03,600
Speaker 1: and attractive Isabelle Saint Cyr, who absolutely slayed as the

380
00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 1: first trans queen in pageant history, finished in the top

381
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: ten on paper but some beauty experts were stunned that

382
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 1: she placed behind Hudson, who does not openly identify as trans.

383
00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:20,320
Speaker 1: Wait a minute, Wait a minute. Let's see Hudson a

384
00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,399
Speaker 1: former cheerleader at Bridgewater State University, or in second place

385
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,879
Speaker 1: at the Miss Main competition in twenty twenty four. So

386
00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,200
Speaker 1: she's slid now to third because the trans person jumped

387
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:35,240
Speaker 1: in there. Let's see. The University of North Carolina, where

388
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 1: Belichick serves as the head football coach, reportedly banned Hudson

389
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,720
Speaker 1: from attending practices. Quote. She is the worst person I've

390
00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,280
Speaker 1: dealt with on this earth, and I've dealt with actual sociopaths,

391
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 1: A person close to the situation told sports journalist Pablo Torre,

392
00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 1: Oh my god, maybe there's more to this than I thought.

393
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,640
Speaker 1: Members of Belichick's family are deeply worried about how detrimental

394
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,360
Speaker 1: this is a quote, How detrimental Jordan can be, not

395
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 1: just for North care lineup, of Bill's legacy, reputation, everything

396
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: he has built and worked for over decades. That's a quote,

397
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,920
Speaker 1: according to Torri, the sports journalist, who has also reported

398
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,679
Speaker 1: that Hudson has attempted, with varying degrees of success, to

399
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,639
Speaker 1: force her way into commercials starring Belichick by showing up

400
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 1: on set and demanding to be on camera.

401
00:22:17,000 --> 00:22:19,400
Speaker 3: I imagine his response, whether he said it out loud

402
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,000
Speaker 3: or not, is I know what I'm doing. I'm an

403
00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,359
Speaker 3: old man. I'm in love with a young, hot woman.

404
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 3: I'm having the time of my life. I got what

405
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 3: she wants, I'm getting what I want. I got money,

406
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 3: I got everything I got. However, many years of you

407
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 3: know life left, I'm as happy right now as i've

408
00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 3: been ever.

409
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:42,760
Speaker 1: So shut up, nne ya, Yeah, I wonder I wonder so.

410
00:22:42,800 --> 00:22:47,679
Speaker 1: Speaking of relationships, Michael Royer has been secretly tossing his

411
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 1: wife's socks into the trash for years, not her everyday pairs,

412
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,119
Speaker 1: but the size fourteen ones her mom orders his gifts

413
00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 1: from fast fashion sites like Tamu, your wife, We're done, Airely,

414
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: your wife wears size fourteen sucks? Yeah, it's funny you're

415
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 1: married two sasquatch. I read this and I'm like, whoa,

416
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: whoa whoa journalist, dude? That clet sentence raises more questions

417
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 1: than provides answers. Right number one, what does a woman

418
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: has a size fourteen feet or not?

419
00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:21,000
Speaker 3: No?

420
00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:26,320
Speaker 1: Okay, why the hell is her mom ordering her gigantic

421
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: socks from Chinese fast fashion outfits. This is the article

422
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:36,879
Speaker 1: you've missed, the article you know, long, long, long ago.

423
00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 1: Dan Hughes, who was a teacher at Parkland Community College

424
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 1: in Champagne, Illinois, who taught the one radio class I

425
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:49,479
Speaker 1: ever took. He was doing a unit about interviewing, and

426
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 1: again a wonderful guy and a wonderful teacher. But he said,

427
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,439
Speaker 1: you hear this all the time, the interviewers who don't listen.

428
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:59,479
Speaker 1: They just are so busy contemplating their next question. And

429
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:04,679
Speaker 1: his his example was something the effect of when did

430
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 1: you discover the joints of coin collecting? Well, I think

431
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 1: it was when I was abducted by aliens and I

432
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 1: was probed for a number of hours and they handed

433
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: me a coin on my way out of spaceship, and

434
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 1: I've loved coin collecting ever since. Really, how many coins

435
00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:27,679
Speaker 1: do you have? And I feel like that sentence is

436
00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 1: of a similar order. Yeah, But anyway, this guy buries

437
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:37,000
Speaker 1: her wildly gigantic socks under garbage to avoid detection because

438
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: she'll never wear them. And it's a big article about

439
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:46,119
Speaker 1: how clutter can be an emotional like weapon or turf

440
00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 1: well weapon, a turf gathering technique used in relationships, and

441
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 1: I read this whole article. Here's one guy's got a

442
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 1: bunch of Gi Joe action figures and comic books from

443
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,960
Speaker 1: his parents house, now competing for space with the clothing

444
00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: his wife bought on sale Bob, much of which has

445
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,640
Speaker 1: never been worn. I got through this article thinking, man,

446
00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 1: these are a bunch of crazy people.

447
00:25:11,600 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 3: Well on just the clothes thing, though, I think that

448
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:19,520
Speaker 3: in every relationship there's likely to be stuff where there

449
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 3: are things she wears you'd rather she didn't, not your

450
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 3: favorite and vice versa, or ridiculously.

451
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,919
Speaker 1: Worn T shirts. I'm raising my hand over here, but

452
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to get rid of it because like

453
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 1: one of my kids gave it to me, or that was,

454
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:37,800
Speaker 1: you know, the first radio station we ever worked at together,

455
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:40,280
Speaker 1: or whatever. I think I'm not going to toss that

456
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: T shirt. But yeah, it's kind of worn.

457
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 3: But in terms of actually wearing something, I mean, there's

458
00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:47,639
Speaker 3: all you know, there's probably things Judy likes to see

459
00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: you in more than others, yes, but might not say

460
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:54,880
Speaker 3: it's not my favorite pair of pants you ever wear

461
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 3: or something.

462
00:25:56,760 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, So here's another aspect of this another weird avenue.

463
00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:09,720
Speaker 1: Here's a cup size fourteen socks. Why is her mother

464
00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 1: every her gigantic socks? What is she trying to say?

465
00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,880
Speaker 1: I mean, sucks so patently useless and gigantic you throw

466
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: them away and she doesn't notice. That is your story,

467
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:26,520
Speaker 1: no kidding, not that these folks in this twist have

468
00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:31,000
Speaker 1: a probationary zone started as a single empty drawer and

469
00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 1: has now grown to so you can put stuff in

470
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 1: there that I think we ought to get rid of,

471
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: you ought to get rid of, and it stays in

472
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:40,919
Speaker 1: there for a couple of months, and when the area

473
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: is full, then you go through. It strikes me as

474
00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:47,240
Speaker 1: a little formalistic and odd, but you know.

475
00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,280
Speaker 3: My plan is I hope that I die before I

476
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 3: ever have to get to any of that stuff, and

477
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 3: then somebody else will I don't know, halts charge somebody

478
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:55,400
Speaker 3: to halt to the dop.

479
00:26:55,960 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: I'm never gonna make those decisions while I'm alive. Jo

480
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: Getty's wife occasionally goes into his closet and throws away

481
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:12,200
Speaker 1: the doll sized pants that his sister orders him. Oh boy,

482
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,720
Speaker 1: here's here's another one. Here's this eighty year old gal

483
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 1: she enlists her daughter in law to smuggle out stuff

484
00:27:20,000 --> 00:27:22,920
Speaker 1: her husband wouldn't want to part with. I mean, that's

485
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 1: going to be a problem, although you know, you're like

486
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: smuggling my stuff out of the house under the cover

487
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: of our loved ones. Yeah, put this in your person,

488
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,639
Speaker 1: get rid of it. On the other hand, they mentioned

489
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 1: that this guy's accumulated over a thousand golf balls on

490
00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 1: his walks near a local course.

491
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:40,960
Speaker 3: Yeah. I'm not good at throwing stuff away. So I've

492
00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 3: had it happen before where things got thrown away without

493
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 3: my consent, and I kind of think, yeah, kind of

494
00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:51,400
Speaker 3: glad that happened.

495
00:27:53,440 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I for some reason, Yeah, I just thought it

496
00:27:58,040 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 1: was interesting that it was some point, some marriage council

497
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,840
Speaker 1: or somebody ways in says, yes, this can this can

498
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:06,640
Speaker 1: be a proxy for emotional space in.

499
00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 3: The probably three time divorced marriage counselor yeah, probably so.

500
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: Yes, he likes to dominate the closet with his GI

501
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,840
Speaker 1: Joes as a way of symbolizing that he needs more

502
00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: r right, Hey, you know what, And it's funny with

503
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 1: like the g I Joe's, Well they did, they're gaining value.

504
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,439
Speaker 1: They could really be worth something someday. You know what,

505
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,159
Speaker 1: else could be an index fund. Put your money in

506
00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: the mixed fund and empty your damn closet.

507
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,520
Speaker 3: I'm looking right out here at New York Post headline.

508
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,040
Speaker 3: Right here, chat GPT is my therapist, and it's more

509
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 3: qualified than the human could be.

510
00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,520
Speaker 1: You should give it a whirl. I'm using it to

511
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:43,400
Speaker 1: planification right now. It's like I'm in love. I'm so

512
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 1: enthused about it.

513
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,920
Speaker 3: I do want to maybe kick off our three with this.

514
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,960
Speaker 3: A couple of things Trump said yesterday. I'll be interested

515
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:53,400
Speaker 3: to see if you agree or not. He gave a

516
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 3: major presidential foreign policy speech in the Middle East about

517
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 3: the way America has been interacting.

518
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 1: With the world. The last well are our adult lives.

519
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,000
Speaker 1: I demand you tell us more about this personally interesting

520
00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:08,040
Speaker 1: and you're right, it got so little comfort zero among

521
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:11,240
Speaker 1: other things on the way, stay here Armstrong.

522
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 5: Major League Baseball removed its lifetime ban on seventeen deceased people,

523
00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,720
Speaker 5: including Pete Rose and shoeless Joe Jackson, two of the

524
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,560
Speaker 5: most famous players previously banned for gambling on Major League Baseball.

525
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 5: In response to an application filed by Pete Rose's family,

526
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:33,920
Speaker 5: Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred wrote, quote, obviously a person no

527
00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 5: longer with us cannot represent a threat to the integrity

528
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:36,720
Speaker 5: of the game.

529
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:37,400
Speaker 1: Unquote.

530
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,040
Speaker 5: This means Rose and anyone who gets a lifetime ban

531
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,760
Speaker 5: can now become eligible for Hall of Fame consideration after

532
00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:47,000
Speaker 5: they die. They still, of course have to get voted

533
00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:47,920
Speaker 5: into the Hall of Fame.

534
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 1: Key thing is you have to die, though, So yeah,

535
00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: step one kind of takes the fun out of it,

536
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,560
Speaker 1: doesn't it. Fifteen other guys, that's interesting. I wonder who

537
00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:59,920
Speaker 1: they were. I'm sure information is available. Secondly, I want

538
00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,000
Speaker 1: if Jake Tapper's about to write a book about how

539
00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 1: he's just discovered that Pete Rose was a great hitter,

540
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 1: but he gambled, Yeah, more on that later.

541
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:09,800
Speaker 3: Quickly off the top of your head. Don't think about

542
00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:12,120
Speaker 3: it for more than two seconds. How old is Honey Booboo?

543
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 1: Twenty eight?

544
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 3: She's nineteen. Okay, she's only nineteen because she's a pretty

545
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 3: young kid. When she became famous in Toddler's and Tiara's

546
00:30:25,680 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 3: was the original show. She was one of those pageant girls,

547
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,480
Speaker 3: and then she had such a personality that they turned

548
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 3: it into a reality show. Here comes Honey Booboo that

549
00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 3: focused specifically on.

550
00:30:34,800 --> 00:30:40,000
Speaker 1: Her and her obese mom. She just did an interview

551
00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 1: with People magazine.

552
00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 3: I'm reading this actually from Fox News, in which she

553
00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:48,800
Speaker 3: says she never saw a single dime of money from

554
00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:54,680
Speaker 3: that TLC reality show her mom Tookanah wow, Mama June, Right,

555
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,680
Speaker 3: Mama June, who is kind of a train wreck drug addict,

556
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 3: spent all the money, bad person, And it seems like

557
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,640
Speaker 3: Honey Boobo's actually doing pretty well and is the This

558
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,720
Speaker 3: is a very common thing. A lot of you probably

559
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 3: know this in super dysfunctional families. There's often one kid

560
00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:15,320
Speaker 3: that for whatever reason just doesn't follow the pattern and

561
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 3: understands they're in mayhem from a very young age and

562
00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:20,960
Speaker 3: gets out of it. And Honey Booboo seems to be

563
00:31:21,040 --> 00:31:22,080
Speaker 3: one of those people.

564
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,200
Speaker 1: And decides, my life's not going to be like yes, yeah, yeah,

565
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: she seems to good for her, Yeah, it is.

566
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,240
Speaker 3: It sucks that she, you know, was clearly the driving

567
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:32,080
Speaker 3: force of that whole thing, and all the money was taken, including.

568
00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,720
Speaker 1: Your mom, by that moniker anymore.

569
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 3: No, but when she she wasn't Dancing with the Stars

570
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,720
Speaker 3: a few years back and got thirty five thousand dollars

571
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 3: for that, But Mama June stole that also, Oh my

572
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 3: nice job, Mama June.

573
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:47,840
Speaker 1: Yes, Katie, you have a honey booboo comment. Yes, it

574
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,840
Speaker 1: looks like Mama June has a new show called Mama

575
00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:55,280
Speaker 1: June Family Crisis. Yeah all right, Oh boy, you are

576
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 1: scraping the true mung at the bottom of the barrel

577
00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:06,480
Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, who's watching that? Oh? I'm amazed by

578
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:07,320
Speaker 1: who watches that.

579
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,400
Speaker 3: There's so much content of every kind and a lot

580
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:13,560
Speaker 3: of people who have, you know, a million followers or

581
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,320
Speaker 3: make this much money or whatever, And I think, how

582
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 3: are there enough people taking in enough content for all

583
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:21,200
Speaker 3: of these different things?

584
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 1: And how do you find it that's you know, the

585
00:32:24,680 --> 00:32:28,080
Speaker 1: good stuff. But I guess it's because everybody has access

586
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 1: to it all the time. So the math works somehow. Like,

587
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,160
Speaker 1: for instance, I was I was on a guitar lesson

588
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:38,480
Speaker 1: thing yesterday that came across my YouTube feed. This is

589
00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 1: actually kind of interesting. But he's a big deal in

590
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,120
Speaker 1: the in the guitar lesson world. It's basically out a

591
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,360
Speaker 1: TV show is a charming, good looking guy where he

592
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: gives guitar lessons and he's got several million followers and

593
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 1: clearly makes looking at his house and his lifestyle pretty good,

594
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,520
Speaker 1: living off of this anyway.

595
00:32:55,640 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 3: He called out a number of fake famous YouTube guitar players,

596
00:33:01,000 --> 00:33:03,600
Speaker 3: and I'm sure this is true with other instruments too.

597
00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: Who it's all fake.

598
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 3: They they they record everything at a slow speed, then

599
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,200
Speaker 3: speed it up and then act like they can play

600
00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 3: this stuff and then try.

601
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: To sell people guitar lests.

602
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,320
Speaker 3: And it's become a thing within that world of like

603
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 3: people really hating each other and everything like that and

604
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,840
Speaker 3: making serious enemies. But that's the thing you can do, apparently,

605
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 3: you could, like I could play the piano incredibly slowly,

606
00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,520
Speaker 3: then speed it up, stay on pitch, because you can

607
00:33:32,560 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 3: do that, and then and then make.

608
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,680
Speaker 1: It look like I can play like that. You just struck.

609
00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 3: You know.

610
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 1: If you talk to some you know, chimp scientists whatever

611
00:33:41,800 --> 00:33:47,440
Speaker 1: you call them, biologists, I guess, and ask them why

612
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:51,360
Speaker 1: would chimps fight? They could give you like five six

613
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 1: reasons that haven't changed in a thousand years. Human beings

614
00:33:54,840 --> 00:34:00,320
Speaker 1: invent new reasons to hate each other every day, right

615
00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:03,400
Speaker 1: might be our greatest gift, our big old brains. That's

616
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,880
Speaker 1: what we spend each our time doing, coming up with

617
00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 1: reasons to hate people.

618
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 3: But there's got to be a limit to content creators

619
00:34:11,120 --> 00:34:13,200
Speaker 3: even with good content that there's an audience for it,

620
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,600
Speaker 3: isn't there doesn't there have to be, or or we

621
00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,840
