Those are two very different general managers. Yeah, 11 00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: I couldn't resist the Vladimir Right's quoting Trump in recent truth. 12 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: But you know, I gotta admit I've spent as much 13 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 1: time to get through the NFL Draft today as anything else. 14 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: As I do love some football, really, I just have 15 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: never even when I was super into sports, I didn't 16 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 1: understand being so into the draft. It's wrong as often 17 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,400 Speaker 1: as it's right, So I just don't understand why it's 18 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: such a big deal. Yeah, speaking only for myself, I 19 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't say I'm so into it. I just think, oh wow, 20 00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:23,240 Speaker 1: the Niners got an edge rusher, that's cool. Go with 21 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 1: Nick Bosa. That could be exciting. But I don't, you know, 22 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,720 Speaker 1: take it seriously. I was still great salt. I was 23 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: talking to an NFL insider last night actually about just 24 00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 1: brought up the draft and uh and they said, yeah, 25 00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:38,759 Speaker 1: I used to be involved in that, but they moved 26 00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: it from like a it would be at a bar, 27 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: it's now at a stadium, and now it's just a 28 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: bigger deal. It's like, yeah, so the just individual team's 29 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: drafts they do at a giant stadium full of people. Yeah, yeah, 30 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: that's amazing popular com Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's a 31 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: spectacle in and of itself. It's it's quite amazing just 32 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: as a business. Yeah, well, listen, I understand why you 33 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,840 Speaker 1: got to keep your sources anonymous, but just just admit it. 34 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: Your fishing buddies with Travis Kelcey, you go out to 35 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,040 Speaker 1: bass fishing with them, tea swizzle makes you boys, a 36 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: couple of sandwiches, lows up the cooler with a couple 37 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,799 Speaker 1: of beers, and he kisses tailor on the cheek, and 38 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,399 Speaker 1: you guys go fishing. I wasn't gonna bring up this 39 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,120 Speaker 1: at this point in the show, but we do kind 40 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: of have breaking news around this. So there's a Time 41 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: magazine interview with Trump that came out just like in 42 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: the last couple of hours. I haven't had time to 43 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:36,200 Speaker 1: read it. It's a magazine, Grandpa, well right, it shows 44 00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 1: how Trump, how old Trump is. Trump gives an interview 45 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 1: to Time magazine because he thinks Time Magazine's still showing 46 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: up in people's mailboxes and they're putting it on there. 47 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: You know, I wonder, well I would if they called me. 48 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 1: I'd be like, I got like ten minutes on Thursday. 49 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: I'm not making fun of Trump for me. No, I 50 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: still pay attention to the Evening News, sixty minutes and 51 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:01,440 Speaker 1: Time Magazine because I'm old anyway, and when the relevance 52 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 1: of those things is so diminished, sixty minutes still has 53 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: some power. Time magazine got no juice at this point, none. 54 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: But they did get an interview with Trump and which 55 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: he blames Ukraine for starting the war. But that's not 56 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: the breaking news. Breaking news is whitcough, Trump's negotiator arrives 57 00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: in Moscow as one of the senior Russian generals who's 58 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: planning the war. His car explodes, So I just wondered 59 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: Trump see yesterday he say, you don't know what we're doing. 60 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: And somebody said, you know, you're not putting any pressure 61 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: of Russia. You don't know what we're doing. We're doing 62 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 1: lots of things you don't know about. And I thought, 63 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: is that one of them? Are we were we sending 64 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: the signal that we're blown up? Generals will blow up 65 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 1: this general, but we could blow up you. So maybe 66 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 1: you want to come to the table. Oh that strikes 67 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 1: me as a long shot, but it's a hell of 68 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 1: an intriguing possibility. I don't know how we're going to 69 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: Israel like they do to Orhyme's nuclear scientists. Guy who 70 00:03:56,960 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 1: rides up next to the general on a motorcycle, all 71 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden there's a clank on the side of 72 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: his car. What are you doing over there, Kaploly? I 73 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:05,400 Speaker 1: don't know. We found out fairly recently in the New 74 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: York Times that all that early stuff with Ukraine doing 75 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,760 Speaker 1: so well, we organized all that. I mean, we shipped 76 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: their generals out to where was it, Germany, to another country, 77 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 1: met with US NATO, the best people, you know, the 78 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: best minds and technology that exists, told him, here's what 79 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: you do that hit there hit there, give them all 80 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,800 Speaker 1: the intelligence. I don't believe for a second that we 81 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,599 Speaker 1: aren't involved in the pinpointing of these generals to assassinate them. 82 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 1: Would Trump make such a move given his rhetoric and stances, 83 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,320 Speaker 1: not out loud, not out loud, He wouldn't make that obvious. 84 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:43,760 Speaker 1: But I no, no at all. Obviously, I'm asking would 85 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: he do it at all? Well, it's being done with 86 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: our help, so he's not stopping it. I mean, I'd 87 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,640 Speaker 1: be shocked if it's not with our help. I don't know. 88 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. Ukraine's developed some capabilities, but there's a 89 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,040 Speaker 1: whole lot of mirk here, no doubt, a whole lot 90 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:00,080 Speaker 1: of mirk. Oh, it'll be many years before we know 91 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:03,479 Speaker 1: the true story. Anyway, that's enough of that. If we're 92 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 1: getting back briefly to sixty minutes, you said they still 93 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 1: have power, yes, but it's now red and says going 94 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: to low power mode. True, he didn't. We haven't talked about. 95 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,520 Speaker 1: I mean, how about the fact that they got rid 96 00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: of their producers or he stepped down because he said 97 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,920 Speaker 1: he no longer has the autonomy to do whatever he 98 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: wants and they used to have. So we were talking 99 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: about sixty Minutes. This is some inside baseball stuff for 100 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 1: US media people. But we were talking about a couple 101 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 1: of episodes of sixty Minutes where it was like, whoa 102 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:34,080 Speaker 1: was this Fox? I mean, where they were really on 103 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 1: the other side of where they usually are in story 104 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: in my opinion on both stories, I don't remember which 105 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: the stories were, but where they were both, to my mind, 106 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: on the right side of the story, the correct side 107 00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: of the story, which I believe followed directly on the 108 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: heels of a couple of weeks that were just like 109 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: watching an episode of Morning Joe. I mean, they were 110 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: so far off it was ridiculous. And this guy steps 111 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 1: down and says he no longer has the ability to 112 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 1: do what he wants. I think forced on him those 113 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,840 Speaker 1: more balanced shows, and he said I quit. Yeah, he 114 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 1: said as much. And other insiders are lak Sherry Redstone, 115 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:14,920 Speaker 1: the new chairman of Viacom well good, the paramount ESPN 116 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: plus whatever the hell conglomerate runs it now is says 117 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: telling him what to do and what not to do. Yeah. Well, 118 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: she said she was very unhappy with a couple of 119 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 1: pieces that they had done, and I'm sure she was. 120 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: They were outrageous, and we were screaming about him on 121 00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,840 Speaker 1: that Monday morning after. But I think this is a 122 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: win win. She says, no, that was way too left. 123 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,719 Speaker 1: He says, I'm gonna do what I want, or I leave. 124 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: She says, fine, he leaves. So maybe sixty Minutes will 125 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,799 Speaker 1: get a little closer to what they've always been. Left, 126 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:48,600 Speaker 1: but not like they were a month ago. Right, I 127 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 1: could easily see. I don't even remember the dude's name. 128 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: He's semi legendarian. Pardon me. Sixty Minutes has been on 129 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 1: since we were born and we're old. They've had three 130 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 1: people run the thing, and he was the number three. Yeah, 131 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: but what I was gonna say is he is thoroughly 132 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: entrenched in the media elite. It's entirely possible he went resistance. 133 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 1: He decided we're abandoning any pretense of both sides. We're 134 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: gonna fight the resistance. Trump is Hitler, blah blah blah. 135 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, all right, if they straighten it out, great, 136 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: If not, they will continue to vanish into the dustbin 137 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: of history. He probably also thought they would never let 138 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: me go, and he was wrong. Many many of us 139 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: have had that situation in life. I didn't think I 140 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: was unfireable my first radio job where I was the 141 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 1: program director, but I didn't think the place could run 142 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:38,880 Speaker 1: without me. This was one of the great lessons in 143 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: my life. I was working. I was killing myself, Thank you, Gladys. 144 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,360 Speaker 1: I was killing myself at that radio station. I mean 145 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 1: literally working seventy hours a week while being a full 146 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 1: time college student because I just didn't think the place 147 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: could run without me. I did everything, and no, man, 148 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: they'll miss me when I was gone. And then I left, 149 00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: and you know what, they just kept on chugging along. 150 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: They found different ways to do it. One of the 151 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 1: best lessons of my life to find that out. Yeah, 152 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: now what are you doing, dude? Everybody replaceable ever rebody? 153 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: Well quite literally, I mean, are you familiar with the 154 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,440 Speaker 1: whole life cycle and how long human beings have been around? 155 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: And nobody can hunt mast it onni like me. This 156 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 1: tribe is gonna starve about me and my spear. That's hilarious. 157 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 1: Let's start the show officially.

That will either 167 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:10,400 Speaker 1: launch the Tennessee Titans into the upper realms of the NFL, 168 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: or he'll be a bust and be on five different 169 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: teams and out of the league by the time he's 170 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: twenty nine, or anything in between, or anything in all 171 00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: equally likely. Yes, ye, exactly, yes. You would think it'd 172 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: be easier to predict who is gonna do well and 173 00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: who wasn't than it is. It's it's shocking. I mean, 174 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 1: it's the same freaking sport. Yeah, but it's it's it's wild. 175 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: Some people dominating college sports are nobody can't even make 176 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: the team in the NFL. And and then you got 177 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 1: your players who were you know, you kind of heard 178 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 1: of them, and then they're just And of course Tom 179 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,360 Speaker 1: Brady the most successful player in NFL history. He was 180 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 1: a sixth round draft choice. Sixth round. Every team passed 181 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 1: on him five times. Combination of your gifts of physical 182 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:01,640 Speaker 1: mental motivation. Why is the way you fit into a 183 00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 1: team a scheme? The coaches? You get? It's all very complicated. Yeah, 184 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,920 Speaker 1: they had a lot of money invested in trying to 185 00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 1: figure that out. Yep, forty nine Ers quarterback, last pick 186 00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:16,199 Speaker 1: in the draft. Oh really irrelevant? Yeah yeah, brock Purty, Sure, 187 00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 1: who is he from? Where? No? Brock Purty who Drafter Year? Yeah? 188 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 1: I thought they got a new guy. I thought that's 189 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: what he meant. No, No, they got an edge rusher, Jack, 190 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: the rangey sophomore from Georgia that's known for his ability 191 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 1: to all lootolf on some lot then and get to 192 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 1: the quarterback. But that's it. Yeah, that's a perfect example. 193 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:37,679 Speaker 1: Brock perty who is a quarterback who makes it to 194 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: the super Bowl? Was the last pick, so every single 195 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: team had a chance to pick him multiple times and said, no, no, 196 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: I tell you who, We're not picking that dumb ass. 197 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: All right, you know what, I'd rather pick a monkey 198 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 1: than that young man. All right, are there any monkeys 199 00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 1: on the draft board? How about can we take your 200 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: it guy because we hear he's really good. We kind 201 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: of need an it No point in grabbing him because 202 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 1: our football inflator has been our balls are sicky lately? 203 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: Can we can we draft a better football inflator instead 204 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: of rock party? You don't want that, especially heading into 205 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: the weekend. So we got a lot more on the 206 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: We got clips of the week this hour. Stay with us. 207 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 4: A new study says that paper straws aren't as eco 208 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,440 Speaker 4: friendly as you think, but hey, at least they don't 209 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,839 Speaker 4: work and make everything taste like paper. Researchers analyze dozens 210 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 4: of different brands of paper straws and found that they 211 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,839 Speaker 4: contain forever chemicals, which are chemicals named after how long 212 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 4: it takes to drink a milkshake through a paper straw. 213 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 1: How many times has that happened? Where the paper straw 214 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: turns out to be as bad for the environment or 215 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: you as the plastic straw. The plastic bag is worse 216 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 1: than the paper bag, and then the carryon bag is 217 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: worse than most of it, worse than both of them. 218 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 1: Or electric vehicles do more harm than the environment in 219 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 1: the roads than they I mean, over and over again, 220 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 1: this has happened emotion not logic. That explains so many 221 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: things that are pushed by the left. I want to 222 00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: help the environment, paper bags, cut down trees. Let's use 223 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: plastic bags. Whoa, whoa. Let's think about this for a second. No, 224 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: we need to save the environment. Just come on. And 225 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 1: you know what's funny about a lot of this stuff 226 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 1: is I share their goals. Sure, of course, I think 227 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: we all do. But I think it's worth asking will 228 00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: that work when you're choosing a policy. Good Lord, I 229 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:44,319 Speaker 1: think it's as simple as that. Sometimes, So Katie cannot 230 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 1: be with us for her usual segment. Yes, her equipment. 231 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna use this indelicate phrase now, but I hear 232 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: people use this phrase a lot, like goals with jobs 233 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: who make money. No, we need more delicacy, not less. 234 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: Her radio equipment crapped the bed. How do we feel 235 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:07,320 Speaker 1: about that phrase? Does my cringe not tell you? Can 236 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,319 Speaker 1: you not read my cringe? I take from its context 237 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: that that's a negative occurrence. I I'm not aware of 238 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: this being a common situation for people in real life. No, 239 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: thank goodness, at least not at this stage of my life. 240 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: Or yeah, not since I've made a very coarse, well 241 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 1: and uncommon. So I'm just surprised I've heard it for 242 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,640 Speaker 1: a long time in the world of golf. Oh really, 243 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: maybe it started there. I was two up with two 244 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,040 Speaker 1: to play, and then I blanked the bed. Yeah I 245 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 1: won't even because I am a man of refinement. I 246 00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: will not join you in the gutter. Wow. Yeah, it 247 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,240 Speaker 1: is becoming more more popular, more common. Soon as I 248 00:13:58,240 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: heard my mom say it, that's when I know it's 249 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: going mainstream. That's a pretty good standard. It's very unlikely 250 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 1: it will happen. God bless her. So because Katie is 251 00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 1: not available and her equipment has indeed lost control of 252 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:13,440 Speaker 1: its I can't even finish that sentence. It would have 253 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: been really funny, but I just can't go there anyway. So, 254 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 1: just taking a quick look at who's reporting what New 255 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 1: York Times leads story is heg sets, personal phone use 256 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 1: creative vulnerabilities. Even the Wall Street journal is talking about 257 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: the chaos at the Pentagon, and I want to get 258 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,040 Speaker 1: into it in some depth later. I think there is 259 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 1: truth to both the idea that there is turmoil at 260 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: the Pentagon and also that the swamp Monster doesn't want 261 00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: her a former and it's going to do everything it 262 00:14:48,520 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: can to throw up resistance. Absolutely I believe to be true. 263 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:56,160 Speaker 1: The headline the Wall Street journal polygraph threats, leaks and infighting, 264 00:14:56,440 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: the chaos inside hegxets Pentagon. New York Post is talking 265 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: about some guy falling out of the draft. Oh it's 266 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 1: an old Shador Sandard's falling out. New York Post is 267 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 1: a weird paper. It does some brilliant, super serious journalism 268 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: and some of the most ridiculous stuff I've ever seen. 269 00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: Pakistani and Indian troops exchanged fire along the line of 270 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 1: control separating their two countries overnight. These are a couple 271 00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 1: of nuclear powers, giant militaries, and unfriendly neighbors who are 272 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: divided by religion. This is my lead nominee for a 273 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,080 Speaker 1: story nobody's paying attention to that could be a gigantic 274 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 1: story in roughly six weeks, right, yeah, no doubt Who's 275 00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,200 Speaker 1: being of international relations? Do you have more on that? Sorry? No, 276 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 1: I was going to back up to the New York 277 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 1: Post their cover today, which I had in front of me. 278 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: I don't right now, but is something about your general manager. 279 00:15:55,720 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 1: It was Trump yaling Vladimir and it was basically making 280 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 1: Trump for sticks and stones, will break my bones for 281 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 1: just you know, hey, stop Vladimir and having echoes of 282 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 1: Biden's don't, which is you know, it's a a that's 283 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: a fairly painful critique. I think of Trump and I'm 284 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 1: as covery of week twenty four hours. For Trump, it 285 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: had a very strong whiff of don't of Joe Biden, 286 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 1: don't to me oof. That is that is critical. My 287 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,560 Speaker 1: real sticking point with this is that, and I've come 288 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: across a couple of my favorite commentators who agreed completely 289 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: the idea that look, both countries want peace is simply 290 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,920 Speaker 1: not true. No, it's not at all. And that is 291 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 1: what Trump and witcoffin company have been asserting over and 292 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 1: over again. I don't see that at all. Speak speaking 293 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 1: of Russia, thirty seconds left. Russian military court on Thursday 294 00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: sentenced Dive and Popov, former Russian commander who'd criticized senior 295 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,960 Speaker 1: mid military leaders, to five years in a penal colony 296 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: for fraud in corruption, that sort of thing. That's the 297 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: beauty of running an oligarchy where everybody is corrupt. Chijin 298 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:12,040 Speaker 1: Ping will tell you this, If you need to get 299 00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: rid of somebody, you just point your finger and say 300 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,879 Speaker 1: he's corrupt. He's thinking everybody's corrupt around here, right. We 301 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: got clips of the week coming up Armstrong and Getty. 302 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 1: Fifty world leaders are headed to Rome right now, including 303 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:31,040 Speaker 1: President Donald Trump. He's on his way to Italy for 304 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 1: the big Pope funeral tomorrow. He'll be there. Zelenski will 305 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:39,000 Speaker 1: be there. Prince William because his dad, the King, is 306 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: ill or something. But anyway, lots of world Joe Biden's 307 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: going to be there. Is Pope Francis here, Pope Francis, 308 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: where are you come on? Is? Joe Biden will be there. 309 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: He is Yeah, highest ranking Catholic we've ever had. Yeah, 310 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,719 Speaker 1: Joe Biden will be there. Jean Paul the second I 311 00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 1: was told, John Paul the Second was here. Yeah. Boy, 312 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 1: I've got a couple of stories on his mental decline. 313 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: As more and more folks are speaking openly, it was 314 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,040 Speaker 1: one hundred percent the plan to just drag the senile 315 00:18:12,080 --> 00:18:15,199 Speaker 1: old mummy across the finish line, then figure out what 316 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 1: to do, because everybody knew what was happening, including the 317 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:23,199 Speaker 1: American people. So the fact that the Sharad continued as 318 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: a mark of true desperation or insanity or something. I mean, 319 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: it is the plan that could not work. In a 320 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,080 Speaker 1: couple of moments, while I didn't have any interest in 321 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,520 Speaker 1: the NFL draft. I do have some interest in who 322 00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:40,160 Speaker 1: ends up being the pope, and I have an opinion, 323 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: though it might now unfounded. So the Catholic Church draft 324 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 1: is the one you're watching. And okay, fine and dandy, 325 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 1: But first let's take a fond look back at the 326 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: week there was. It's cow clips of the Week for 327 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 1: all the beautiful creerdos. I'm having a party ever eat 328 00:18:56,080 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: a poondry huh week, We're in a way. Mo wouldn't 329 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,200 Speaker 1: let us out of the car and it would not move. 330 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 4: He would not let us out, and he was coming 331 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:12,359 Speaker 4: back down toward this and he goes run. 332 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,320 Speaker 1: He's got a gun. Yo, you gotta be kidding me. 333 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: Walmart now has this big locked up Holy yeah, we 334 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 1: on TV. That's that olive oil you've been drinking. No, hey, 335 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 1: take the matches with you. She got to the stop 336 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,760 Speaker 1: sign where she proceeded to kick a solo cup out 337 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: of the side of the mail truck. Just look at 338 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: CNN's Fear and Greed Index. We're in fear territory right now. 339 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 1: President Trump lashing out at Ukraine's president. Yeah, I thought 340 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:49,200 Speaker 1: it might be easier to deal with Selenski. So far, 341 00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: it's been harder, but that's okay. I'm not sure you 342 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: know what concessions Putin will ever be willing to make, 343 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: but he surely hadn't made very many so far. A 344 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: lot happening here. 345 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 4: There is a lot of change happening inside Iran. It 346 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 4: Disgruntled former employees are peddling things to try to save 347 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 4: their ass. 348 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: Tesla announcing it's profits have plunged a staggering seventy one percent. 349 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: My time, aucation it's doge will drop significantly. The US 350 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 1: Treasury Secretary Scott Vessen said behind closed doors that he 351 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: sees the US China train war as unsustainable. I'm not 352 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 1: gonna say, oh, I'm going to play hardball with China. 353 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: I'm going to play hardball with you. President. She no. No. 354 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 4: In the budget I will present to you, we will 355 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,680 Speaker 4: try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal. 356 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 1: Aliens whore arrested for crimes. 357 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 4: We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also 358 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,120 Speaker 4: a nation of laws. 359 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,959 Speaker 1: Today we're going to have a reading of Pride Puppy. 360 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: It doesn't get more innocent than a children's alphabet book. 361 00:20:55,040 --> 00:21:01,080 Speaker 1: For all the beautiful queerdos dancing over the Rainbow Bridge. 362 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: I suspect there are a lot of non religious parents 363 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: who were into all that. Thrilled about this. By the way, 364 00:21:07,160 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: eat more beans, good for you, make America healthy again 365 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,680 Speaker 1: and flagelent. But it's good for it. You got to 366 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: ease into it. That's the key with beans. Ease into it. Anyway, 367 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 1: that's the key with beans. There's so much to unpack there. 368 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:23,280 Speaker 1: I was struck by Bill Clinton's use of the term 369 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 1: illegal aliens as the president. I happen to be watching 370 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:28,800 Speaker 1: a special report with Brett Bear last night, and I 371 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: think it was David Spunt was the reporter was talking 372 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: about some illegal aliens related story, and he started to 373 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:41,879 Speaker 1: say immigrants, and he corrected himself to say migrants. I 374 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,520 Speaker 1: continue to be amazed at folks, even on the right, 375 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: their willingness to let the left impose language upon them 376 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,400 Speaker 1: and apparently not even know it's being done. 377 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 2: And then how about that news report about the book 378 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 2: Pride Puppy, which is the focus of that Supreme Court case, 379 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,400 Speaker 2: in which the news reporter says, what could be more 380 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:05,600 Speaker 2: innocent than a children's alphabet book? 381 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:08,960 Speaker 1: You really pretending you don't know? It's about the fact 382 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: that there's drag queen stuff in the book, and you're 383 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: not allowed to opt out of it. Come on now, 384 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: S is for sun and sodomy. It's a nice, innocent 385 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 1: children's book. You people are either so stupid you ought 386 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: to be in the care of the state, or just 387 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:30,919 Speaker 1: obnoxiously dishonest. Speaking of obnoxious, one more quick note. I 388 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:34,480 Speaker 1: love this Andrew Styles writing in The Free Beacon, A 389 00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:37,679 Speaker 1: belatedly Happy Earth Day to anyone who missed it. That 390 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:41,399 Speaker 1: was apparently I don't know. Twenty day is twenty second 391 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: somewhere around there's Earth Day. I forget it every year. 392 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: It's a nothing. But Andrew uses the S word and 393 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,399 Speaker 1: I don't approve, so I'll just say poop. But he 394 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,160 Speaker 1: says blated happy Earth data to anyone who gives up poop. 395 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 1: If CNN's chief climate correspondent Bill Weir is right, he 396 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,399 Speaker 1: definitely isn't. But for the sake of the argument, it 397 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: could be the last one we'll ever get to celebrate. 398 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 1: So here's who this guy is. He did not even 399 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 1: about it. Even by low standards of mainstream journalism. Weir 400 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: is a horribly obnoxious liberal weirdo. It's best known for 401 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 1: naming his son River after conceiving him quote in a lighthouse, 402 00:23:17,080 --> 00:23:20,720 Speaker 1: and for celebrating the Yes, I know, I should probably 403 00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:23,720 Speaker 1: pause after every you know phraser. There's too much coming here, 404 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 1: too fast. Yeah, conceive your kid in a lighthouse? Is 405 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 1: that some sort of poetic something or other I don't understand. 406 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:33,199 Speaker 1: Or maybe the phallic nature of the White House gave 407 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,920 Speaker 1: him a lighthouse, given an idea. I don't know. But see, 408 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: he conceived his son in a lighthouse and named him River, 409 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:42,000 Speaker 1: all right. Ah, And he's known for celebrating the child's 410 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: birth by publishing an absurdly long and absurdly public letter 411 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: apologizing to the child for bringing him into a polluted 412 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:53,160 Speaker 1: world full of greedy corporations and climate change skeptics. Oh, 413 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:55,720 Speaker 1: a letter of apology to your baby when it's born. 414 00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: Oh oh, that's that's too much. But wait, there's more 415 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: days before the election. In last year, we're told the 416 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: CNN audience that life on Earth may cease to exist 417 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 1: if Kamala Harris loses. If that's the case, and it 418 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 1: certainly isn't, Democrats probably shouldn't have nominated such awful candidates, 419 00:24:16,720 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 1: says Andrew Styles. And it's a good point. So that 420 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: person CNN's climate chief climate correspondent. That's worth knowing. That's 421 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: worth knowing. So the their main person that's going to 422 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:33,040 Speaker 1: tell you about the hurricane and how it's because of 423 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 1: climate change is obviously crazy. I mean that is the 424 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,240 Speaker 1: display of a crazy person. Yeah, he is a full 425 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:47,399 Speaker 1: blown the sky is falling wacky doodle. Yeah wow. Speaking 426 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,840 Speaker 1: of media institutions whose battery is flashing red CNN, please, 427 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 1: Oh hey, I didn't. I don't even pay much attention 428 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,920 Speaker 1: to them anymore at all. That is wild. I would 429 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: like to know more. I'm gonna have to dig that 430 00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: up because he's probably explained the I'm sure very poetic 431 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 1: and deep significance of conceiving your baby in a lighthouse, 432 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:15,879 Speaker 1: but writing a letter of apology to the kid, it 433 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,239 Speaker 1: is so self aggrandize. It is it is. It is 434 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: all look at me, look at me, look at me, 435 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: all of it. And then that weird thing that we 436 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 1: talk about a lot where however, this got flipped upside 437 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: down somewhere in the eighties or nineties or never happened 438 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,920 Speaker 1: because being resilient and tough used to be cool. That's 439 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:38,120 Speaker 1: how you got attention. Now, the more hurt you are 440 00:25:38,320 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 1: by the world. The more un afraid. Yeah, the more 441 00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,679 Speaker 1: afraid you are, the more attention you get. So the 442 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: more social currency you get, the more approval you get. 443 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: I had to write a letter of apology to my 444 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:54,679 Speaker 1: baby for bringing them into a polluted world where the 445 00:25:54,720 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: corporations are Oh my god, Ah, I've got to throw up. 446 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 1: You know. I was gonna say, is there We're gonna 447 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,680 Speaker 1: have to clean that up? I was gonna say, is 448 00:26:03,720 --> 00:26:06,360 Speaker 1: there a good solid term for a fellow like him? 449 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: I think snowflake is about as good as it gets. 450 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: But crazy you're crazy? Or or or cry bully is 451 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: another term. I really like the people who constantly are 452 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: whining about how put upon and afraid they are, and 453 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:24,639 Speaker 1: yet they're vicious bullies. Cry bully. That's what this Bill 454 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:28,400 Speaker 1: Weir is. What a show that's wild. I look forward 455 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: to him telling me about the next tornado and how 456 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 1: that represents climate change. Now that I know his backstory, 457 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 1: I do have an opinion on who I think should 458 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 1: be the pope that I want to talk about at 459 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 1: some point. But we do have mail bag on the 460 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: way and lots of good stuff you want to weigh 461 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,320 Speaker 1: in on anything. Our text line is four one five 462 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: two nine five KFTC. David Ignatius of the Washington Post, 463 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: one of the more respected senior sort of geopolitical analyzers 464 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: in America, writes for the as I said, You've got 465 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:07,400 Speaker 1: a fairly optimistic article today about Trump's plan to try 466 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: to end this war. Seems to think it's got a 467 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: real shot, which is interesting. Interesting. Indeed. Also, who's the 468 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: strongest war hawk against Iran in Washington, d C. Here's 469 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:25,359 Speaker 1: a hint. He's a giant, bald headed Democrat. Oh stay 470 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: with us, right, yeah, yeah, here's your freedom loving quote 471 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,160 Speaker 1: of the day. I was flipping through my many collections 472 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: of fabulous quotes and I came across one of the 473 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,359 Speaker 1: worst freedom loving quotes of the day I've ever seen. 474 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: It's terrible, and it explains a lot. This is from 475 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: Fdr Franklin Deleanor, Socialist Roosevelt. True individual freedom cannot exist 476 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:51,199 Speaker 1: without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and 477 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships 478 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: are made. M Well, now that last part is not 479 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 1: like completely untrue. If you have a desperate populace, they're 480 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 1: desperate to be led to something or other. But the 481 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: idea that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security 482 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: and quote unquote independence. Therefore, we're going to make a 483 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: lot of people dependent on the government and they'll have 484 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: true freedom. That is one of the most perverse statements 485 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. That's interesting. I wonder if he believed that, 486 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: if he thought, you know, if I give people enough 487 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:30,399 Speaker 1: that they don't want freedom from want, then they'll be free. 488 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:35,199 Speaker 1: Interesting now because I try to see both sides. In 489 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: the era, the actual era of the actual Hitler and 490 00:28:38,680 --> 00:28:44,360 Speaker 1: the fascists, etc. Yes, those people were economically really downtrodden 491 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,000 Speaker 1: and looking for an answer, and he was saying, we 492 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 1: don't want people to be so desperate they're looking for 493 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: an extreme answer. I get that, but it's the first 494 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 1: part that strikes me as perverse. You dropped an h bam. 495 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,400 Speaker 1: Have you seen the back and forth between Bill Maher 496 00:28:57,520 --> 00:29:00,720 Speaker 1: and Larry David. I have not overhe We'll have to 497 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 1: get We'll have to get into that later, good lord. 498 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: And ironically, not far down the list of my quotes 499 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: about freedom, here's Eleanor Roosevelt his bride. Freedom makes a 500 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility 501 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: for the person who is unwilling to grow up the 502 00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 1: person who does not want to carry his own weight. 503 00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,880 Speaker 1: This is a frightening prospect. Man. I'd take old eleanor 504 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,280 Speaker 1: ten times out of ten over the old man. Was 505 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: she a softball player? Yes? Yeah, allegedly okay yeah. Batted 506 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: from both sides, they said, mail bag an unfortunate exchange. 507 00:29:38,280 --> 00:29:40,080 Speaker 1: Drop us a note, would your mail bag at Armstrong 508 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: and gedddy dot com Going with the lighter fare mostly 509 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,719 Speaker 1: first of all, this Kevin from Kevin, even though I'm 510 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: fairly sure you guys aren't the Babylon p I'd like 511 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 1: to submit the following headlines. Nonetheless, UK braces for violence 512 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: in the wake of India Pakistan conflict. The subhead local 513 00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: politicians now arming their underage harems in preper for urban warfare, 514 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: a reference to the India Pakistan budding conflict and many 515 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 1: of the EMMA grees from those countries in the UK. 516 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: And that could get pretty spicy. Two nuclear powers, Yeah yeah, 517 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: how about this from oh Concluding, I pray our discussion 518 00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: of papoosas the national dish of El Salvador, I guess 519 00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: and said to be delicious by Jesson Wiley, Texas. We're 520 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 1: the best thing that ever had happened to papoosas or whatever. 521 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: Hell this is from Denzel. My girlfriend usually gives me 522 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:45,480 Speaker 1: papoosa on my Birthdayzell, be better than that, my friend. Oh, 523 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: that's okay on a Friday. No other day do better 524 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 1: than that. Yeah, that's a rough joke. Huh. How about 525 00:30:51,400 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 1: this from Sean. We were discussing yesterday. Jack brought us 526 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:59,720 Speaker 1: some insight about the things that will doom a relationship 527 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:04,800 Speaker 1: and how most couples have only roughly three arguments that 528 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: they have over and over again. Maybe this particular's change, 529 00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: but it's essentially the same argument. Yeah, that's fascinating, Sean Wrights. 530 00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: My wife and I sometimes joke about how there's an 531 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: argument we always have, but luckily it's about something we 532 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 1: both think is stupid. What if your number three argument 533 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 1: is over what the number three argument actually is? Oh wow, 534 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: you just can't settle that. What if argument number two 535 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 1: is why did I ever marry you? Oh? Lord, that's 536 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 1: a tough argument. On the topic of Greenland Ice, let's 537 00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: see different. Kevin Rights, Hey, a big freedom and perpetually 538 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 1: sick Jack Kevin the Texas Marine with a thought on 539 00:31:43,560 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 1: those paying big money for Greenland's soon to be our 540 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,560 Speaker 1: new estate, or so I hear ice. Yeah, we were 541 00:31:49,560 --> 00:31:52,959 Speaker 1: talking about this yesterday. People paying exorbitant rates for you know, 542 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:57,280 Speaker 1: centuries old, eons old ice from Greenland. Those paying two 543 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 1: hundred and eighty bucks for a drink merely because it 544 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: contains one hundred thousand year old ice. Reminds you of 545 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: something I once read. The question isn't why a fool 546 00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: and his money are easily parted. The question is how 547 00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 1: the fool and his money got together in the first place. 548 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: All right, Yeah, that's interesting. The perpetually sick Jack, a 549 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,760 Speaker 1: friend of mine brought this up the other day, said, 550 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 1: you know how many times you've been sick in the 551 00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: last like six months? And I don't keep track, but yeah, 552 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 1: way too often. And they asked, does having cancer change 553 00:32:28,600 --> 00:32:30,479 Speaker 1: your immune system so you get sick more often? I think, 554 00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: I am. I don't know that I've ever. I was 555 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:34,640 Speaker 1: going to do a little research on that, but yeah, 556 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 1: I have gotten fairly sick, way too many times in 557 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: the last year. You know what it feels to me. 558 00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: And I haven't done a statistical with that word again, 559 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 1: is statistical study on this. But it seems to me 560 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:53,440 Speaker 1: that your lads are ill a lot too, having raised 561 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: three kids myself and I have you formed a theory 562 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,720 Speaker 1: in my head, utterly without dad to support it, that 563 00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:03,680 Speaker 1: there's something about your immune system that's a little different 564 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 1: than other folks. Maybe genetically speaking. It's not shocking, not 565 00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:11,840 Speaker 1: that genetic difference. Never gets sick. My mom got sick once, 566 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: so I don't know where this comes from. Skips a 567 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 1: generation or two. Who knows anyway, get well soon. Let's 568 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:22,960 Speaker 1: see Jack is a menace, writes there recently mentioned Jess 569 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:25,960 Speaker 1: and Wiley Texas. Joe, you must find a way to 570 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,719 Speaker 1: strange Ac during mail bag. He's always interrupting my excellent 571 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: emails with his outbursts. I suggest enlisting Katie to exist. 572 00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 1: Next time he interrupts, have her punch him right in 573 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 1: the neck. She'll be fine. He won't hit a girl 574 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,240 Speaker 1: on moral grounds. Hi, he doesn't even believe men should 575 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:43,880 Speaker 1: hit women during Olympic sanctioned boxing matches. Jack ps and 576 00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:46,560 Speaker 1: this is my favorite part. If you don't want the pain, 577 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: stay in your lane. Wow. I'm gonna use that in 578 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:58,240 Speaker 1: the future. And finally, this Lisa from Beautiful Elverta talking 579 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: about child stars as we were earlier in the week, 580 00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: specifically referencing Haley Joel osmond I was recently visiting a 581 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,120 Speaker 1: friend in Texas for her daughter's baby shower, she writes. 582 00:34:08,160 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 1: One of the women shared a story of her friend's 583 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: three year old daughter, who told her little friend that 584 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,680 Speaker 1: she wouldn't be joining her at preschool because quote, I 585 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: make too much money at home. What out of the 586 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: mouths of babes huh? The woman explained, the girl's parents 587 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,520 Speaker 1: dress her up and do activities which they post on 588 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,480 Speaker 1: social media, for which they are paid well by having 589 00:34:26,480 --> 00:34:29,279 Speaker 1: so many followers. The mother of the baby shower mom 590 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:31,560 Speaker 1: to be, said she thought her daughter should go back 591 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 1: to work maintaining her more than comfortable income while her 592 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,680 Speaker 1: husband stayed home to raise the baby. He'd do so 593 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: many things with the baby that he could post. So sad. 594 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:47,359 Speaker 1: And then she talks about a friend whose child has 595 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: a physical deformity, but she has close to two hundred 596 00:34:51,480 --> 00:34:55,440 Speaker 1: thousand followers, the theme being yes, she has this handicap, 597 00:34:55,480 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 1: but we still do great things together. Blah blah blah. 598 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: She got a check for over five grand a couple 599 00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:04,439 Speaker 1: of months ago for a month for one month. Why 600 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 1: it's insane and hard to turn down? Once the spigot opens. Wow, 601 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 1: that's the modern child star. You're right, the Internet, social media, 602 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: you're right. Will it have similarly unsavory repercussions for the 603 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 1: child down the road? I don't know. No, we don't. 604 00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 1: That's really interesting. Hey, if you missed a segment with 605 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand Armstrong and Getty
