So my 0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.080 kind my kids are kind of in that age. 0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:31.640 Joined My oldest son is in the where you like 0:01:31.800 --> 0:01:34.320 seriously have to start thinking about what you might want 0:01:34.360 --> 0:01:36.800 to do with your life. But my younger son is 0:01:36.880 --> 0:01:40.440 at the kind of more fanciful age of what do 0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:43.560 you want to be when you grow up? And so 0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:46.080 we have these conversations on a regular basis. You know, 0:01:46.280 --> 0:01:47.960 like when you're a really little kid, you want to 0:01:48.000 --> 0:01:52.800 be a I don't know, astronaut or a cowboy. Rearranging 0:01:52.840 --> 0:01:56.720 cattle is honorable work. It is cowboy I actually ended 0:01:56.800 --> 0:01:58.640 up working in a place where I could have been 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:00.960 become a cowboy. That's what I wanted to do. 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:03.840 Are a cowboy, you wear boots on the beach. 0:02:04.080 --> 0:02:07.360 That was the actual job was. I was working at 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.240 the feed lot. And at some point you take the 0:02:09.360 --> 0:02:11.160 do you want to do go the feed truck driver 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:13.200 route or do you want to go the cowboy route? 0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.519 And I went the feed truck driver route because I 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:18.359 wasn't planning on be a cowboys more like a life profession. 0:02:18.400 --> 0:02:21.040 That's not something you just do for a year. That's 0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:25.600 like you're it's going to be your life. But uh, 0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:28.080 I was going to ask everybody before I give. One 0:02:28.120 --> 0:02:30.720 of my youngest son's current plan is which is kind 0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:32.400 of funny for you, what he wants to do is life. 0:02:32.400 --> 0:02:35.320 What did you want to be when you grew up, Katie? 0:02:36.080 --> 0:02:38.320 I wanted to be a marine biologist. 0:02:39.160 --> 0:02:41.959 That's a good one because you saw Seinfeld and that's 0:02:42.000 --> 0:02:44.359 what George Costanza said. He exactly, I've always wanted to 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:46.120 pretend to be a marine biologist. 0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:49.079 I think both of my daughters may have had a 0:02:49.600 --> 0:02:52.519 time where they wanted to do that. You see dolphins 0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:55.720 and sea turtles and all sorts of endearing creatures, and 0:02:56.120 --> 0:02:57.800 you hear the risk you wanted to do. 0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:02.440 Yeah, it's fine profession, And what at what point did 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:04.680 you decide you didn't want to be that or maybe 0:03:04.720 --> 0:03:06.440 you don't even remember, because like some of my stuff, 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:08.600 I don't remember ever making a decision, or it's not 0:03:08.639 --> 0:03:10.320 like I looked into it now. It looks to me like, 0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:12.440 according to the actuary tables, that people died at a 0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:14.080 young age in this profession. And he only make this 0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:16.760 much money, So perhaps I'll turn my gaze towards something else. 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:18.480 That's not the way it usually works. 0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:20.560 But yeah, that's not how it happened. I went from 0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:24.799 marine biologists to archaeologist, and then another good one ended 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:25.440 up in radio. 0:03:27.120 --> 0:03:28.840 Ended up in radio. I don't know if that. 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.359 No, that's because what I ended up actually wanting to do. 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:35.280 Oh, okay, wanting to do that. At what point? At 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:37.160 what point in your life did you decide you wanted 0:03:37.200 --> 0:03:38.240 to be on the radio. 0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.720 Around the time that I was a teenager? So thirteen? 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:44.400 Oksh yeah? Interesting? 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.360 Oh, in love of the Morning show, was listening to 0:03:46.400 --> 0:03:48.800 Rush with my dad all the time. Found out dad 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.080 did some radio, and here we are. 0:03:51.360 --> 0:03:53.040 It's awesome, cool, Michael. 0:03:54.160 --> 0:03:56.240 I also wanted to be in radio as a little kid, 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:58.640 believe or not. But I like the technical stuff. I 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.840 used to take tinker toys and build tall towers all 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:03.760 the way to the ceiling of the house. 0:04:04.120 --> 0:04:06.880 Yeah, that's interesting. We've worked with you for twenty five 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:08.280 years and I didn't know that. 0:04:08.480 --> 0:04:10.760 Yeah, it was a little kid, but I would play. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.640 I remember i'd have a little record player of official 0:04:13.680 --> 0:04:15.400 price record player and now pretend I was a DJ, 0:04:15.520 --> 0:04:18.240 but I always Yeah, I ended up wanting to play 0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:20.320 with you know, buttons and things like that. 0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.800 So that's kind of what I'm doing now. Yeah. 0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:23.120 Cool. 0:04:23.800 --> 0:04:28.000 Yeah, with great skill and a plumb Joe Getty. 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:38.200 Fairly standard American Midwestern boy, a cycle of paleontologist, hockey player, 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:46.800 baseball player, professional musician, lawyer. 0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:51.320 Than this dead end job. Do you you know there 0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:54.520 was definitely a progression. Do you remember why you changed 0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:58.200 your mind on various stuff? Because I don't. 0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:03.560 I think running up against reality honestly realizing I'm not 0:05:03.640 --> 0:05:06.840 really good enough for that and I have other interests. 0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:10.200 Now, I think it was as simple as that. Yeah, 0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:11.920 I mean, if I go way back to the beginning, 0:05:11.920 --> 0:05:14.520 I think it was cowboy. Now. For a very long time, 0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:17.240 I wanted to be a carpenter and I really liked 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:20.080 working with building stuff and all that sort of things. 0:05:20.120 --> 0:05:24.440 Still do, but like, I don't remember it any at 0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.599 any point deciding, I don't know, I probably hit my 0:05:26.640 --> 0:05:29.080 thumb a lot, so maybe i'll I mean, I just, 0:05:29.160 --> 0:05:31.800 you know, just stopped being my interest for whatever reason. Yeah, 0:05:31.839 --> 0:05:34.080 I think that's it. You just develop other interests, get 0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:36.840 passion for something else. I was hardcore. I was going 0:05:36.839 --> 0:05:39.360 to join the Marines for most of high school. I mean, 0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:40.680 this wasn't even when I was a little kid. I 0:05:40.680 --> 0:05:44.120 mean that was just absolutely my plan. Why change that, 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:48.440 I don't know, huh, I honestly don't know. It has 0:05:48.480 --> 0:05:52.000 something to do with hearing about a radio program. I 0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:58.000 think I was I was in I never did any 0:05:58.040 --> 0:06:03.520 sort of like drama musical stuff until my senior year 0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.880 of high school, and I did that and I got 0:06:07.000 --> 0:06:11.440 kind of sucked into that world of performing entertaining the 0:06:11.480 --> 0:06:14.320 adulation that comes with it. And then I heard about 0:06:14.360 --> 0:06:18.160 a radio program at a nearby community college where practically 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:20.640 everybody who went there found a full time job in radio. 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:22.640 At least that was the stat at the time. Which 0:06:22.680 --> 0:06:25.680 is amazing now. It was true then but impossible now. 0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:28.640 There's not three full time radio jobs available in the country. 0:06:30.920 --> 0:06:32.920 But I just thought, oh, that'd be awesome. I always 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:34.920 had listened to radio, always liked the idea of being 0:06:34.920 --> 0:06:36.400 on the radio, and then I was full speed on 0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:38.720 that after that. But I don't remember why I changed 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.320 my mind like that. You would think you'd remember that, 0:06:42.480 --> 0:06:43.000 but I don't. 0:06:43.440 --> 0:06:47.159 The Marines thing, yes, unless it's you know, as I said, 0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:49.960 you just develop other passions and you kind of get 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:50.560 led away. 0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:55.000 And I've sometimes wondered what my life would have been 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:56.320 like if I had gone that direction. I kind of 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:59.480 wish I would have, just for the challenge of it 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.039 and everything that comes with it. But I'm really happy 0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.520 with the way things turned out in my career this way, 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:06.719 so I wouldn't want to mess with it too much. 0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.280 But yeah, sometime, when Elon gets the right rocket, I 0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:11.240 will travel to the parallel universe where I joined the 0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:14.960 Marine Corps, see where I ended up. Here's my son's 0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:18.960 current plan. He wants to double up on his school work. Currently, 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:22.400 he does a combination of homeschool and independent study. He's 0:07:22.400 --> 0:07:27.040 not in a traditional school setting. He is he wants 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:28.960 to double up on his school work. He wants to 0:07:30.280 --> 0:07:33.960 pass the GED at sixteen so he'll have his high 0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:37.040 school education. Then he wants to spend two years getting jacked. 0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.320 And wow, there was a twist there. Did not see 0:07:41.360 --> 0:07:41.760 that coming? 0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:44.320 Did not That was not on my Bengo card. 0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.000 Yeah, me, neither. It made me laugh out loud, just 0:07:47.040 --> 0:07:49.240 like this yesterday when he told me this is my plan. 0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:51.560 Now I'm gonna double up my studying so i can 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:53.560 get my GED at sixteen. Then I'm gonna spend two 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:54.520 years getting jacked. 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:57.920 Yeah, all right, So now he's educated in Swollen and 0:07:57.920 --> 0:07:58.760 then what next? 0:07:58.760 --> 0:08:00.480 And then he's going to join the mill because he 0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:03.800 wants to do like my brother Jeff, who was career military, 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:06.040 because he's seen somebody do the other end of it. 0:08:07.000 --> 0:08:10.000 He also it's just an odd he's a different sort 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:12.280 of human being in it. He seems to understand like 0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.080 time horizons as a kid, the way that you only 0:08:15.160 --> 0:08:18.160 usually do as an adult. But to him, twenty years 0:08:18.200 --> 0:08:20.200 in the military where you get you know, the all 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:22.160 the benefits that come with him. He thinks I'd only 0:08:22.200 --> 0:08:24.280 be thirty eight, so it's just see, I'd have all 0:08:24.280 --> 0:08:26.200 these other opportunities to do this, and that it's like, 0:08:26.480 --> 0:08:28.680 that's not usually the way you think when you're young. Now, 0:08:28.680 --> 0:08:30.360 you know, being thirty eight seems like you might as 0:08:30.400 --> 0:08:32.000 well be dead, So there's no way I'm going to 0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:32.640 commit to do it. 0:08:32.840 --> 0:08:34.640 But that's the way he looks at that. That is 0:08:35.000 --> 0:08:40.760 utterly unique. I now continually reminded my kids of that reality, 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:43.080 because it does not seem that way when you're young. 0:08:43.240 --> 0:08:48.040 I remember being practiced, not panic stricken, but extremely concerned 0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:50.559 at age twenty two and a half that I wasn't 0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:54.600 completely certain what I wanted to do, right right, go 0:08:54.640 --> 0:08:56.920 off and do something for five years. Then you'll be 0:08:57.080 --> 0:09:01.440 twenty seven and a half. Oh, you know, from this perspective, 0:09:01.440 --> 0:09:03.440 it's crazy. But man, that is that is so nuts. 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:06.000 That he's in a good way that he's got that perspective. 0:09:06.080 --> 0:09:08.840 Well, you know, because we all just went through all 0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.360 our different iterations of things we want to do. I 0:09:11.360 --> 0:09:14.800 don't expect him to stay on this plan, but he's 0:09:14.840 --> 0:09:17.199 been with it for quite a while. He's always asking 0:09:17.200 --> 0:09:20.599 my brother about the military. This military then, and it 0:09:20.640 --> 0:09:23.720 would it's actually a good plan if you if you 0:09:23.800 --> 0:09:27.240 can handle the idea at a young age of twenty 0:09:27.320 --> 0:09:29.240 year commitment or something, and you don't have to commit 0:09:29.320 --> 0:09:31.800 for twenty years at a time. You sign up for 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:32.600 chunks at a time. 0:09:32.960 --> 0:09:36.520 But uh, boy, understanding that age is that's amazing. 0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:38.400 Because you're so young when you're thirty eight. Good lord, 0:09:38.720 --> 0:09:39.280 Oh my gosh. 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:41.720 I just had a conversation with a girl over the weekend. 0:09:41.800 --> 0:09:46.040 She lost her job unfortunately on Friday, and she's losing it. 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.200 She is twenty six years old. 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:50.000 Oh boy, She's like, I'm. 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:50.960 Already twenty six. 0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:53.559 I went, first of all, shut up about already being 0:09:53.600 --> 0:09:54.240 twenty six. 0:09:54.400 --> 0:09:58.360 Okay, not for that, Yeah, yeah, Second, you're fine, go 0:09:58.440 --> 0:10:00.640 find the twenty three year old who to hear that 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:02.160 the rest of us not so much. 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:07.560 Yeah, that's pretty funny. But I had never heard anybody 0:10:07.600 --> 0:10:09.840 who had the plan of taking two years off to 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:13.920 get jacked. Yeah. 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:17.720 So, just as an aside on a semi serious note, 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:20.520 it's one of the reasons I really believe in mentoring 0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:25.839 programs and am like crazy super passionate about not papering 0:10:25.880 --> 0:10:31.040 over deficiencies in schools in like inner city areas, rough 0:10:31.040 --> 0:10:34.240 areas wherever schools are suffering, and then just admitting the 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:41.160 kids anyway because my and Jack knows this story, the 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:43.520 fact that it didn't even occur to me to pursue 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.160 a career in radio until I was at a band 0:10:46.200 --> 0:10:48.320 rehearsal and one of the guitar players said he was 0:10:48.320 --> 0:10:50.280 going to his radio class, and I thought, oh, is 0:10:50.320 --> 0:10:52.040 that how you do that? I'd be better than him, 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.440 and I enrolled in a radio class. It was as 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:57.520 if I'd spent my entire life wandering around saying, you know, 0:10:57.679 --> 0:11:00.600 I'd really like to cure people of disease and by 0:11:00.640 --> 0:11:03.880 pharmacology and knives don't bother me. And I understand that 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:07.280 surgery is important, and boy oh boy, I like science 0:11:07.320 --> 0:11:08.520 and again healing people. 0:11:08.679 --> 0:11:11.320 And it never occurred to me to be a doctor. 0:11:11.760 --> 0:11:16.120 I mean, it was that dense that it had never 0:11:16.160 --> 0:11:18.520 occurred to me. It just didn't. For some reason, I 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:20.160 thought they import. 0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:23.160 Space aliens to do that, or you're hatched, or I 0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:26.120 don't know someone. By God, it never occurred to me. No, 0:11:26.160 --> 0:11:27.800 you just make a couple of basic steps and then 0:11:27.840 --> 0:11:30.000 you explore it. And the fact that I could have 0:11:30.200 --> 0:11:34.319 that that's lack of vision. 0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:37.000 Just because I didn't know what those steps were. 0:11:37.800 --> 0:11:39.520 I realized there are lots and lots of kids like 0:11:39.559 --> 0:11:42.640 that that are kind of doomed to not pursue their 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:45.559 dreams or even understand what their dreams are because they 0:11:45.600 --> 0:11:49.480 haven't seen somebody do it. And so that's what's so 0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:52.120 important about mentoring programs. And like the NFL one of 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:55.160 the best Super Bowl ads this is the day after 0:11:55.200 --> 0:11:56.600 the Super Bowl, we're taping this. 0:11:57.559 --> 0:11:59.800 One of the best ones was that I am somebody. 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:02.520 Or they go into neighborhoods and they tell kids, Hey, 0:12:02.520 --> 0:12:04.840 this is a real possibility people like you do this. 0:12:05.080 --> 0:12:10.400 I think those are great. Yeah, that's a weird thing 0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:16.640 about the human mind. It's putting limitations on yourself just 0:12:16.679 --> 0:12:21.400 for like things you aren't aware of a variety of 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:24.600 area areas, and it's just it's odd. Yeah, I can't 0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:30.199 explain it. It's just weird. Little kid walking around in 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:33.679 a lab coat and just fascinated by disease. 0:12:34.080 --> 0:12:36.559 I just wish you could do something with that. 0:12:37.320 --> 0:12:42.360 Yeah, I guess I'll go manage a grocery store. Armstrong, 0:12:49.679 --> 0:12:51.719 the armstrong and getty sharp. 0:12:56.920 --> 0:12:59.760 British woman, recently said againness world record by finishing an 0:12:59.800 --> 0:13:02.600 ice marathon in less than five hours while wearing a 0:13:02.640 --> 0:13:06.120 polar bear costume, it beat the previous record of no 0:13:06.160 --> 0:13:07.040 one's ever done that. 0:13:12.320 --> 0:13:17.520 Did they get the record? Of course you did. That's funny. 0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.680 Seth Myers was a big fan of Norm McDonald, and 0:13:19.720 --> 0:13:21.600 that is a Norm MacDonald joke right there. 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:25.200 The way that's worded, well, that reminds me. It's one 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:28.480 of my favorite weird experiences. And it's hard to explain 0:13:28.600 --> 0:13:30.839 exactly why it was so delightful. But when we were 0:13:30.840 --> 0:13:34.000 walking back and forth to the convention hall in Milwaukee 0:13:34.120 --> 0:13:38.320 this past summer, and we walked going in opposite directions 0:13:38.320 --> 0:13:42.600 on the sidewalk, walked past these climate protesters who were 0:13:42.679 --> 0:13:46.360 clearly not pleased to be there and weren't really enthusiastic 0:13:46.400 --> 0:13:48.719 about their work. But they were walking around with their 0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:51.920 polar bear costume that they were going to don to 0:13:52.000 --> 0:13:55.960 make some vague point about climate change. And the guy 0:13:56.000 --> 0:13:58.440 walking around with walking by with the big polar bear 0:13:58.480 --> 0:14:01.440 head under his arm, looking miserable like anybody going off 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:07.760 to their crop crappy job. Another day, another friggin day, 0:14:07.800 --> 0:14:08.920 we're in the polar. 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:11.600 Bear ahead and the heat to make some point about 0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:13.319 climate change. I guess. 0:14:15.440 --> 0:14:21.040 They all just looks so miserable anyway, A couple of 0:14:21.320 --> 0:14:25.920 stories from the world of health. This is interesting and 0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:28.240 I've my mom used to talk about this, God Rest 0:14:28.320 --> 0:14:31.080 your soul. And I remember in college how like finals week, 0:14:31.160 --> 0:14:33.960 everybody would get sick either that week or after it 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:34.480 or whatever. 0:14:34.520 --> 0:14:37.320 And what was it? Working too art, staying up too late? 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:37.800 What was it? 0:14:39.280 --> 0:14:42.240 Scientists are getting more are getting closer to understanding how 0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:48.640 psychological stress hijacks the body's immune defenses. And they're talking 0:14:48.680 --> 0:14:51.880 specifically about allergies and skin diseases here, but it applies 0:14:51.880 --> 0:14:54.920 to a lot of different things. Psychological stress and pairs 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:59.360 specialized immune cells and called microphages by making them forget 0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:02.840 quote unquot how to clean up certain scales cells in 0:15:02.880 --> 0:15:05.480 the skin, leading to worse allergy symptoms that can persist 0:15:05.480 --> 0:15:09.560 for up to a week after the stressful event. Our 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:13.760 researchers discover the stress hormones again, with the hormones underappreciated 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:16.880 create a kind of cellular memory and immune cells, offering 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:20.120 the first molecular explanation for why stress can worsen allergic 0:15:20.160 --> 0:15:23.040 skin conditions like ezema after stress. 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:26.520 So that's interesting. And I remember the same experience too, 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.960 final as week of getting sick. Uh, it's interesting that 0:15:31.120 --> 0:15:37.000 a moderate level of stress does this and it breaks 0:15:37.000 --> 0:15:39.480 down our immune system and we get sick. But people 0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:43.480 were under tremendous stress, their body goes into some sort 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:49.720 of superman mode. Because I've seen this, I've known people 0:15:49.720 --> 0:15:51.160 who have done this scene this before, Like a guy 0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:53.720 who was taking care of his wife when she was 0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:56.040 like at the end of her life, and he was 0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:58.200 taking care of her all the time, and then she 0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.240 died and he immediately is in the hospital. Was some 0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:04.120 sort of liver disease thing that his body had been 0:16:04.160 --> 0:16:08.000 completely ignoring the whole time because he was needed. I mean, 0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:09.720 he was in a very stressful then. I've I've heard 0:16:09.720 --> 0:16:12.800 of that sort of thing before. So yeah, yeah, really interesting. 0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:20.320 Moving along quickly, the ability to detect spoiled food, which 0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:22.240 is a particular interest, probably to Katie. 0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:24.400 You had no such thing to you get a cold enough, 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:25.920 hot enough, you keep eating it. 0:16:26.440 --> 0:16:30.160 Oh boy, Katie got some funky chick can yesterday and 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:35.000 it made her sick. But this electric tongue can taste 0:16:35.120 --> 0:16:35.880 spoiled milk. 0:16:36.480 --> 0:16:39.120 Humans, Where do I get one of these? I tell 0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:42.160 you what. You give the old lady the electric tongue, 0:16:42.320 --> 0:16:45.640 It'll make a bigger young again. Huh. Now, I bring 0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.120 up this story nearly to use the term electric tongue. 0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:49.840 Sure, can I plug it into my cigarette lighter and 0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:54.240 bring it in the car. Don't it'll distract you while 0:16:54.280 --> 0:16:56.960 you're driving. You're liable to have a fatal wreck. They're 0:16:57.000 --> 0:17:00.720 detecting spoiled food electronically. That's it. You get to say 0:17:00.760 --> 0:17:06.919 electric tongue. And then, finally, major new study shows that 0:17:07.080 --> 0:17:10.320 sedentary work is linked to about a forty percent increase 0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:13.919 in insomnia symptoms. The problem being eighty percent of the 0:17:13.960 --> 0:17:19.520 workforce has does sedentary work, non physically demanding work. 0:17:20.960 --> 0:17:22.920 And I found one that's battery powered. I can take 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:23.359 it hiking. 0:17:24.040 --> 0:17:29.359 Oh boy, oh boy, I'm not going to look in 0:17:29.440 --> 0:17:29.880 your tent. 0:17:31.600 --> 0:17:39.840 Jack Armstrong and Joey, The Armstrong and Getty Show, The 0:17:40.119 --> 0:17:41.520 Armstrong and Getty Show. 0:17:42.080 --> 0:17:47.080 You haven't seen Amelia Perez the movie Nobody has, even 0:17:47.080 --> 0:17:51.919 though it's been nominated for the second most oscars of 0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:56.520 any movie in motion picture history and is up for 0:17:56.560 --> 0:18:00.000 Best Picture, and according to Vulture magazine or website, it's 0:18:00.040 --> 0:18:03.560 currently the most likely movie to win Best Picture. Of 0:18:03.600 --> 0:18:07.159 course it is it stars a trans person. The Hollywood's 0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:09.480 not gonna give a trans movie Best Picture? Are you 0:18:09.560 --> 0:18:09.960 kidding me? 0:18:11.000 --> 0:18:15.520 Currently twenty four on Rotten Tomatoes twenty four percent ranking, 0:18:15.600 --> 0:18:18.760 which is abysinsal. 0:18:18.560 --> 0:18:20.320 You tried too hard with this one. 0:18:21.640 --> 0:18:26.760 Well, it's being hailed jack as the greatest, most nakedly 0:18:26.960 --> 0:18:30.440 Oscar baby movie ever produced. Yeah, they went too far, 0:18:30.600 --> 0:18:32.639 like I said, Yeah, they dished away over the top 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:36.840 with it. But not only that. The real and this 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:40.600 is let me depart for a second. This is the 0:18:40.640 --> 0:18:46.680 final fatal self beclownment of Hollywood, and I am more 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:48.040 delighted than I can tell. 0:18:48.400 --> 0:18:51.320 Yeah, that's awesome anyway, So half. 0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:53.720 Of the story is that it is the most blatantly 0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:58.040 Oscar baby woke movie Hollywood has ever come up with. 0:18:58.440 --> 0:19:02.160 But the hilarious part is it's also terrible, but they've 0:19:02.240 --> 0:19:07.000 still rewarded it with this stunning number of nominations, including 0:19:07.040 --> 0:19:11.080 the first ever nomination for Best Actress for a trans woman. 0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:13.960 That's a dude, by the way. Yeah, it's gonna get 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:17.440 me to watch the Oscars because I want to hate 0:19:17.480 --> 0:19:19.760 watch it. When they stand up there and give their 0:19:19.800 --> 0:19:23.359 acceptance speeches and everybody just standing ovations all over the place. 0:19:23.400 --> 0:19:26.040 It's good. Yes, remember that one year the Super Bowl 0:19:26.240 --> 0:19:28.520 where all the ads were so woke and you got 0:19:28.560 --> 0:19:31.600 some little girl climbing over the border wall. 0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:35.560 To get a Coca cola, or right, oh my god, 0:19:36.320 --> 0:19:37.320 that kind of Oscars. 0:19:37.880 --> 0:19:38.160 Yeah. 0:19:38.280 --> 0:19:41.399 Charlie Cook of The National Review recently unleashed a screed 0:19:41.440 --> 0:19:45.600 that contained roughly these words. The idea that we should 0:19:45.600 --> 0:19:49.480 restructure our constitutional order because George Floyd died is a 0:19:50.200 --> 0:19:53.119 is it not a very compelling or argument anyway? But 0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:55.399 pop culture is more than willing. 0:19:55.520 --> 0:19:55.920 It's there. 0:19:56.000 --> 0:20:00.520 They're feverish to win the approval of their their lefty overlords. Anyway, 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:03.600 where was I? So it is just nakedly Oscar baid. 0:20:03.680 --> 0:20:07.000 It's unwatchable, it's hilarious. It's bombed in Mexico. Here is 0:20:07.040 --> 0:20:09.600 the plot. Friends, Oh oh, you know what I wanted 0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:11.760 to say you were talking about?
