<v Speaker 1>and He Raw live from Studio c SE Senor a

0:00:26.480 --> 0:00:28.600
<v Speaker 1>dimly lit room to put them the fowls of the.

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:30.840
<v Speaker 2>Armstrong and Yetty Communications calm down on a.

0:00:30.800 --> 0:00:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Friday where we're happy drunk to start the show and

0:00:34.080 --> 0:00:36.480
<v Speaker 3>by the end of the show we're three quarters drunk.

0:00:36.680 --> 0:00:40.199
<v Speaker 3>Today we're under the tutelage of our general manager, Vladimir

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.559
<v Speaker 3>Also the NFL Draft, which Faamus went to?

0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Which team those are? Those are two very different general managers. Yeah,

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't resist the Vladimir Right's quoting Trump in recent truth.

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 1>But you know, I gotta admit I've spent as much

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 1>time to get through the NFL Draft today as anything else.

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 1>As I do love some football, really, I just have

0:01:06.080 --> 0:01:08.240
<v Speaker 1>never even when I was super into sports, I didn't

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:11.640
<v Speaker 1>understand being so into the draft. It's wrong as often

0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:14.400
<v Speaker 1>as it's right, So I just don't understand why it's

0:01:14.440 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>such a big deal. Yeah, speaking only for myself, I

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't say I'm so into it. I just think, oh wow,

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.240
<v Speaker 1>the Niners got an edge rusher, that's cool. Go with

0:01:23.360 --> 0:01:25.399
<v Speaker 1>Nick Bosa. That could be exciting. But I don't, you know,

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.720
<v Speaker 1>take it seriously. I was still great salt. I was

0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>talking to an NFL insider last night actually about just

0:01:31.200 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 1>brought up the draft and uh and they said, yeah,

0:01:35.480 --> 0:01:38.759
<v Speaker 1>I used to be involved in that, but they moved

0:01:38.760 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 1>it from like a it would be at a bar,

0:01:41.480 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 1>it's now at a stadium, and now it's just a

0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 1>bigger deal. It's like, yeah, so the just individual team's

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:51.880
<v Speaker 1>drafts they do at a giant stadium full of people. Yeah, yeah,

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 1>that's amazing popular com Oh my gosh. Yeah, it's a

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:58.400
<v Speaker 1>spectacle in and of itself. It's it's quite amazing just

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 1>as a business. Yeah, well, listen, I understand why you

0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:06.840
<v Speaker 1>got to keep your sources anonymous, but just just admit it.

0:02:06.880 --> 0:02:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Your fishing buddies with Travis Kelcey, you go out to

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 1>bass fishing with them, tea swizzle makes you boys, a

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.680
<v Speaker 1>couple of sandwiches, lows up the cooler with a couple

0:02:15.680 --> 0:02:18.799
<v Speaker 1>of beers, and he kisses tailor on the cheek, and

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.399
<v Speaker 1>you guys go fishing. I wasn't gonna bring up this

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.120
<v Speaker 1>at this point in the show, but we do kind

0:02:25.120 --> 0:02:27.840
<v Speaker 1>of have breaking news around this. So there's a Time

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:30.200
<v Speaker 1>magazine interview with Trump that came out just like in

0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:31.760
<v Speaker 1>the last couple of hours. I haven't had time to

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 1>read it. It's a magazine, Grandpa, well right, it shows

0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:38.639
<v Speaker 1>how Trump, how old Trump is. Trump gives an interview

0:02:38.680 --> 0:02:41.120
<v Speaker 1>to Time magazine because he thinks Time Magazine's still showing

0:02:41.200 --> 0:02:43.680
<v Speaker 1>up in people's mailboxes and they're putting it on there.

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:47.680
<v Speaker 1>You know, I wonder, well I would if they called me.

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.600
<v Speaker 1>I'd be like, I got like ten minutes on Thursday.

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:54.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm not making fun of Trump for me. No, I

0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>still pay attention to the Evening News, sixty minutes and

0:02:57.160 --> 0:03:01.440
<v Speaker 1>Time Magazine because I'm old anyway, and when the relevance

0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 1>of those things is so diminished, sixty minutes still has

0:03:05.200 --> 0:03:08.560
<v Speaker 1>some power. Time magazine got no juice at this point, none.

0:03:08.720 --> 0:03:11.800
<v Speaker 1>But they did get an interview with Trump and which

0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:15.000
<v Speaker 1>he blames Ukraine for starting the war. But that's not

0:03:15.000 --> 0:03:20.160
<v Speaker 1>the breaking news. Breaking news is whitcough, Trump's negotiator arrives

0:03:20.160 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>in Moscow as one of the senior Russian generals who's

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>planning the war. His car explodes, So I just wondered

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Trump see yesterday he say, you don't know what we're doing.

0:03:31.639 --> 0:03:33.440
<v Speaker 1>And somebody said, you know, you're not putting any pressure

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:35.600
<v Speaker 1>of Russia. You don't know what we're doing. We're doing

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>lots of things you don't know about. And I thought,

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.480
<v Speaker 1>is that one of them? Are we were we sending

0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the signal that we're blown up? Generals will blow up

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:45.120
<v Speaker 1>this general, but we could blow up you. So maybe

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:48.240
<v Speaker 1>you want to come to the table. Oh that strikes

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:49.880
<v Speaker 1>me as a long shot, but it's a hell of

0:03:49.920 --> 0:03:53.400
<v Speaker 1>an intriguing possibility. I don't know how we're going to

0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:56.840
<v Speaker 1>Israel like they do to Orhyme's nuclear scientists. Guy who

0:03:56.960 --> 0:03:59.000
<v Speaker 1>rides up next to the general on a motorcycle, all

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>of a sudden there's a clank on the side of

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.520
<v Speaker 1>his car. What are you doing over there, Kaploly? I

0:04:03.560 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 1>don't know. We found out fairly recently in the New

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 1>York Times that all that early stuff with Ukraine doing

0:04:10.400 --> 0:04:13.760
<v Speaker 1>so well, we organized all that. I mean, we shipped

0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 1>their generals out to where was it, Germany, to another country,

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:19.359
<v Speaker 1>met with US NATO, the best people, you know, the

0:04:19.360 --> 0:04:22.400
<v Speaker 1>best minds and technology that exists, told him, here's what

0:04:22.440 --> 0:04:24.360
<v Speaker 1>you do that hit there hit there, give them all

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:27.800
<v Speaker 1>the intelligence. I don't believe for a second that we

0:04:27.839 --> 0:04:32.599
<v Speaker 1>aren't involved in the pinpointing of these generals to assassinate them.

0:04:32.839 --> 0:04:36.159
<v Speaker 1>Would Trump make such a move given his rhetoric and stances,

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.320
<v Speaker 1>not out loud, not out loud, He wouldn't make that obvious.

0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:43.760
<v Speaker 1>But I no, no at all. Obviously, I'm asking would

0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:46.680
<v Speaker 1>he do it at all? Well, it's being done with

0:04:46.760 --> 0:04:50.280
<v Speaker 1>our help, so he's not stopping it. I mean, I'd

0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.640
<v Speaker 1>be shocked if it's not with our help. I don't know.

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Ukraine's developed some capabilities, but there's a

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:58.040
<v Speaker 1>whole lot of mirk here, no doubt, a whole lot

0:04:58.080 --> 0:05:00.080
<v Speaker 1>of mirk. Oh, it'll be many years before we know

0:05:00.160 --> 0:05:03.479
<v Speaker 1>the true story. Anyway, that's enough of that. If we're

0:05:03.520 --> 0:05:05.919
<v Speaker 1>getting back briefly to sixty minutes, you said they still

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:09.719
<v Speaker 1>have power, yes, but it's now red and says going

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:13.640
<v Speaker 1>to low power mode. True, he didn't. We haven't talked about.

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean, how about the fact that they got rid

0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.240
<v Speaker 1>of their producers or he stepped down because he said

0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>he no longer has the autonomy to do whatever he

0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:22.839
<v Speaker 1>wants and they used to have. So we were talking

0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 1>about sixty Minutes. This is some inside baseball stuff for

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 1>US media people. But we were talking about a couple

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:30.640
<v Speaker 1>of episodes of sixty Minutes where it was like, whoa

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>was this Fox? I mean, where they were really on

0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:37.400
<v Speaker 1>the other side of where they usually are in story

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion on both stories, I don't remember which

0:05:40.360 --> 0:05:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the stories were, but where they were both, to my mind,

0:05:43.200 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 1>on the right side of the story, the correct side

0:05:45.320 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 1>of the story, which I believe followed directly on the

0:05:48.360 --> 0:05:50.400
<v Speaker 1>heels of a couple of weeks that were just like

0:05:50.680 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 1>watching an episode of Morning Joe. I mean, they were

0:05:53.360 --> 0:05:56.320
<v Speaker 1>so far off it was ridiculous. And this guy steps

0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:58.479
<v Speaker 1>down and says he no longer has the ability to

0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 1>do what he wants. I think forced on him those

0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:04.840
<v Speaker 1>more balanced shows, and he said I quit. Yeah, he

0:06:04.960 --> 0:06:08.160
<v Speaker 1>said as much. And other insiders are lak Sherry Redstone,

0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:14.920
<v Speaker 1>the new chairman of Viacom well good, the paramount ESPN

0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.880
<v Speaker 1>plus whatever the hell conglomerate runs it now is says

0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:20.160
<v Speaker 1>telling him what to do and what not to do. Yeah. Well,

0:06:20.320 --> 0:06:22.680
<v Speaker 1>she said she was very unhappy with a couple of

0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:25.800
<v Speaker 1>pieces that they had done, and I'm sure she was.

0:06:26.080 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 1>They were outrageous, and we were screaming about him on

0:06:28.480 --> 0:06:31.840
<v Speaker 1>that Monday morning after. But I think this is a

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:35.640
<v Speaker 1>win win. She says, no, that was way too left.

0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:37.719
<v Speaker 1>He says, I'm gonna do what I want, or I leave.

0:06:37.880 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 1>She says, fine, he leaves. So maybe sixty Minutes will

0:06:42.160 --> 0:06:44.799
<v Speaker 1>get a little closer to what they've always been. Left,

0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:48.600
<v Speaker 1>but not like they were a month ago. Right, I

0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:50.960
<v Speaker 1>could easily see. I don't even remember the dude's name.

0:06:50.960 --> 0:06:55.080
<v Speaker 1>He's semi legendarian. Pardon me. Sixty Minutes has been on

0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:57.920
<v Speaker 1>since we were born and we're old. They've had three

0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:02.039
<v Speaker 1>people run the thing, and he was the number three. Yeah,

0:07:02.040 --> 0:07:04.680
<v Speaker 1>but what I was gonna say is he is thoroughly

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:08.680
<v Speaker 1>entrenched in the media elite. It's entirely possible he went resistance.

0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:12.920
<v Speaker 1>He decided we're abandoning any pretense of both sides. We're

0:07:12.920 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna fight the resistance. Trump is Hitler, blah blah blah.

0:07:15.640 --> 0:07:18.040
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, all right, if they straighten it out, great,

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:20.800
<v Speaker 1>If not, they will continue to vanish into the dustbin

0:07:20.880 --> 0:07:24.520
<v Speaker 1>of history. He probably also thought they would never let

0:07:24.520 --> 0:07:27.200
<v Speaker 1>me go, and he was wrong. Many many of us

0:07:27.280 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 1>have had that situation in life. I didn't think I

0:07:32.440 --> 0:07:34.760
<v Speaker 1>was unfireable my first radio job where I was the

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:36.720
<v Speaker 1>program director, but I didn't think the place could run

0:07:36.720 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 1>without me. This was one of the great lessons in

0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:42.720
<v Speaker 1>my life. I was working. I was killing myself, Thank you, Gladys.

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.360
<v Speaker 1>I was killing myself at that radio station. I mean

0:07:46.800 --> 0:07:49.560
<v Speaker 1>literally working seventy hours a week while being a full

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:51.320
<v Speaker 1>time college student because I just didn't think the place

0:07:51.360 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 1>could run without me. I did everything, and no, man,

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 1>they'll miss me when I was gone. And then I left,

0:07:56.080 --> 0:07:57.920
<v Speaker 1>and you know what, they just kept on chugging along.

0:07:58.000 --> 0:08:00.320
<v Speaker 1>They found different ways to do it. One of the

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 1>best lessons of my life to find that out. Yeah,

0:08:05.520 --> 0:08:11.400
<v Speaker 1>now what are you doing, dude? Everybody replaceable ever rebody?

0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:16.520
<v Speaker 1>Well quite literally, I mean, are you familiar with the

0:08:16.560 --> 0:08:19.440
<v Speaker 1>whole life cycle and how long human beings have been around?

0:08:19.440 --> 0:08:23.280
<v Speaker 1>And nobody can hunt mast it onni like me. This

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:30.400
<v Speaker 1>tribe is gonna starve about me and my spear. That's hilarious.

0:08:31.400 --> 0:08:33.959
<v Speaker 1>Let's start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 1>getting on this. It is Friday, April twenty fifty, year

0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:39.680
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty five. We are Armstrong in getting We approve

0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:42.320
<v Speaker 1>of this program. All right, then let's get into it.

0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 1>The show begins officially now. According to FCC rules regulations,

0:08:45.760 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 1>at Mark were the.

0:08:47.200 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 4>First pick in the twenty twenty five NFL Draft, the

0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:55.440
<v Speaker 4>Tennessee Titans select Cameron warn Quart alone.

0:08:55.760 --> 0:09:02.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, Ohman will own for his ability to escape

0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:05.560
<v Speaker 1>the rush and throw deep down field. That will either

0:09:05.840 --> 0:09:10.400
<v Speaker 1>launch the Tennessee Titans into the upper realms of the NFL,

0:09:10.640 --> 0:09:13.400
<v Speaker 1>or he'll be a bust and be on five different

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:15.040
<v Speaker 1>teams and out of the league by the time he's

0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:18.360
<v Speaker 1>twenty nine, or anything in between, or anything in all

0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 1>equally likely. Yes, ye, exactly, yes. You would think it'd

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:24.920
<v Speaker 1>be easier to predict who is gonna do well and

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.880
<v Speaker 1>who wasn't than it is. It's it's shocking. I mean,

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:33.040
<v Speaker 1>it's the same freaking sport. Yeah, but it's it's it's wild.

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:38.160
<v Speaker 1>Some people dominating college sports are nobody can't even make

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.720
<v Speaker 1>the team in the NFL. And and then you got

0:09:41.760 --> 0:09:43.720
<v Speaker 1>your players who were you know, you kind of heard

0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 1>of them, and then they're just And of course Tom

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:50.360
<v Speaker 1>Brady the most successful player in NFL history. He was

0:09:50.360 --> 0:09:54.200
<v Speaker 1>a sixth round draft choice. Sixth round. Every team passed

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 1>on him five times. Combination of your gifts of physical

0:09:58.880 --> 0:10:01.640
<v Speaker 1>mental motivation. Why is the way you fit into a

0:10:01.679 --> 0:10:06.200
<v Speaker 1>team a scheme? The coaches? You get? It's all very complicated. Yeah,

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:07.920
<v Speaker 1>they had a lot of money invested in trying to

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:10.920
<v Speaker 1>figure that out. Yep, forty nine Ers quarterback, last pick

0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:16.199
<v Speaker 1>in the draft. Oh really irrelevant? Yeah yeah, brock Purty, Sure,

0:10:16.360 --> 0:10:21.480
<v Speaker 1>who is he from? Where? No? Brock Purty who Drafter Year? Yeah?

0:10:21.480 --> 0:10:22.760
<v Speaker 1>I thought they got a new guy. I thought that's

0:10:22.800 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 1>what he meant. No, No, they got an edge rusher, Jack,

0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 1>the rangey sophomore from Georgia that's known for his ability

0:10:30.440 --> 0:10:32.960
<v Speaker 1>to all lootolf on some lot then and get to

0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 1>the quarterback. But that's it. Yeah, that's a perfect example.

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:37.679
<v Speaker 1>Brock perty who is a quarterback who makes it to

0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:40.440
<v Speaker 1>the super Bowl? Was the last pick, so every single

0:10:40.520 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 1>team had a chance to pick him multiple times and said, no, no,

0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 1>I tell you who, We're not picking that dumb ass.

0:10:47.640 --> 0:10:51.480
<v Speaker 1>All right, you know what, I'd rather pick a monkey

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:55.200
<v Speaker 1>than that young man. All right, are there any monkeys

0:10:55.200 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 1>on the draft board? How about can we take your

0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.400
<v Speaker 1>it guy because we hear he's really good. We kind

0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:02.560
<v Speaker 1>of need an it No point in grabbing him because

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:06.600
<v Speaker 1>our football inflator has been our balls are sicky lately?

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.280
<v Speaker 1>Can we can we draft a better football inflator instead

0:11:10.559 --> 0:11:13.840
<v Speaker 1>of rock party? You don't want that, especially heading into

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 1>the weekend. So we got a lot more on the

0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:21.080
<v Speaker 1>We got clips of the week this hour. Stay with us.

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.280
<v Speaker 4>A new study says that paper straws aren't as eco

0:11:28.400 --> 0:11:31.440
<v Speaker 4>friendly as you think, but hey, at least they don't

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:35.839
<v Speaker 4>work and make everything taste like paper. Researchers analyze dozens

0:11:35.840 --> 0:11:37.600
<v Speaker 4>of different brands of paper straws and found that they

0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:40.839
<v Speaker 4>contain forever chemicals, which are chemicals named after how long

0:11:40.840 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 4>it takes to drink a milkshake through a paper straw.

0:11:44.679 --> 0:11:49.240
<v Speaker 1>How many times has that happened? Where the paper straw

0:11:49.320 --> 0:11:52.200
<v Speaker 1>turns out to be as bad for the environment or

0:11:52.240 --> 0:11:55.760
<v Speaker 1>you as the plastic straw. The plastic bag is worse

0:11:55.840 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 1>than the paper bag, and then the carryon bag is

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 1>worse than most of it, worse than both of them.

0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:04.560
<v Speaker 1>Or electric vehicles do more harm than the environment in

0:12:04.600 --> 0:12:06.839
<v Speaker 1>the roads than they I mean, over and over again,

0:12:06.880 --> 0:12:10.760
<v Speaker 1>this has happened emotion not logic. That explains so many

0:12:10.800 --> 0:12:13.400
<v Speaker 1>things that are pushed by the left. I want to

0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:17.360
<v Speaker 1>help the environment, paper bags, cut down trees. Let's use

0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:20.520
<v Speaker 1>plastic bags. Whoa, whoa. Let's think about this for a second. No,

0:12:20.600 --> 0:12:24.880
<v Speaker 1>we need to save the environment. Just come on. And

0:12:25.240 --> 0:12:27.600
<v Speaker 1>you know what's funny about a lot of this stuff

0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 1>is I share their goals. Sure, of course, I think

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:35.280
<v Speaker 1>we all do. But I think it's worth asking will

0:12:35.400 --> 0:12:40.560
<v Speaker 1>that work when you're choosing a policy. Good Lord, I

0:12:40.600 --> 0:12:44.319
<v Speaker 1>think it's as simple as that. Sometimes, So Katie cannot

0:12:44.360 --> 0:12:49.160
<v Speaker 1>be with us for her usual segment. Yes, her equipment.

0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:52.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna use this indelicate phrase now, but I hear

0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:55.319
<v Speaker 1>people use this phrase a lot, like goals with jobs

0:12:55.360 --> 0:12:59.880
<v Speaker 1>who make money. No, we need more delicacy, not less.

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.800
<v Speaker 1>Her radio equipment crapped the bed. How do we feel

0:13:02.800 --> 0:13:07.320
<v Speaker 1>about that phrase? Does my cringe not tell you? Can

0:13:07.360 --> 0:13:12.319
<v Speaker 1>you not read my cringe? I take from its context

0:13:12.440 --> 0:13:18.800
<v Speaker 1>that that's a negative occurrence. I I'm not aware of

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:24.079
<v Speaker 1>this being a common situation for people in real life. No,

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:26.720
<v Speaker 1>thank goodness, at least not at this stage of my life.

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 1>Or yeah, not since I've made a very coarse, well

0:13:31.440 --> 0:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and uncommon. So I'm just surprised I've heard it for

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:40.640
<v Speaker 1>a long time in the world of golf. Oh really,

0:13:40.760 --> 0:13:44.080
<v Speaker 1>maybe it started there. I was two up with two

0:13:44.120 --> 0:13:47.040
<v Speaker 1>to play, and then I blanked the bed. Yeah I

0:13:47.080 --> 0:13:50.840
<v Speaker 1>won't even because I am a man of refinement. I

0:13:50.880 --> 0:13:54.040
<v Speaker 1>will not join you in the gutter. Wow. Yeah, it

0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:58.240
<v Speaker 1>is becoming more more popular, more common. Soon as I

0:13:58.240 --> 0:13:59.800
<v Speaker 1>heard my mom say it, that's when I know it's

0:13:59.800 --> 0:14:03.120
<v Speaker 1>going mainstream. That's a pretty good standard. It's very unlikely

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:06.520
<v Speaker 1>it will happen. God bless her. So because Katie is

0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:10.040
<v Speaker 1>not available and her equipment has indeed lost control of

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:13.440
<v Speaker 1>its I can't even finish that sentence. It would have

0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:17.559
<v Speaker 1>been really funny, but I just can't go there anyway. So,

0:14:17.760 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 1>just taking a quick look at who's reporting what New

0:14:19.920 --> 0:14:23.320
<v Speaker 1>York Times leads story is heg sets, personal phone use

0:14:23.440 --> 0:14:27.880
<v Speaker 1>creative vulnerabilities. Even the Wall Street journal is talking about

0:14:27.920 --> 0:14:31.960
<v Speaker 1>the chaos at the Pentagon, and I want to get

0:14:31.960 --> 0:14:35.040
<v Speaker 1>into it in some depth later. I think there is

0:14:35.320 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 1>truth to both the idea that there is turmoil at

0:14:40.800 --> 0:14:46.040
<v Speaker 1>the Pentagon and also that the swamp Monster doesn't want

0:14:46.040 --> 0:14:48.440
<v Speaker 1>her a former and it's going to do everything it

0:14:48.520 --> 0:14:51.680
<v Speaker 1>can to throw up resistance. Absolutely I believe to be true.

0:14:52.600 --> 0:14:56.160
<v Speaker 1>The headline the Wall Street journal polygraph threats, leaks and infighting,

0:14:56.440 --> 0:15:03.320
<v Speaker 1>the chaos inside hegxets Pentagon. New York Post is talking

0:15:03.360 --> 0:15:05.600
<v Speaker 1>about some guy falling out of the draft. Oh it's

0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:09.240
<v Speaker 1>an old Shador Sandard's falling out. New York Post is

0:15:09.280 --> 0:15:13.360
<v Speaker 1>a weird paper. It does some brilliant, super serious journalism

0:15:13.360 --> 0:15:15.160
<v Speaker 1>and some of the most ridiculous stuff I've ever seen.

0:15:15.480 --> 0:15:19.400
<v Speaker 1>Pakistani and Indian troops exchanged fire along the line of

0:15:19.440 --> 0:15:23.200
<v Speaker 1>control separating their two countries overnight. These are a couple

0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:29.720
<v Speaker 1>of nuclear powers, giant militaries, and unfriendly neighbors who are

0:15:29.720 --> 0:15:34.240
<v Speaker 1>divided by religion. This is my lead nominee for a

0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>story nobody's paying attention to that could be a gigantic

0:15:38.200 --> 0:15:43.400
<v Speaker 1>story in roughly six weeks, right, yeah, no doubt Who's

0:15:43.440 --> 0:15:46.200
<v Speaker 1>being of international relations? Do you have more on that? Sorry? No,

0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 1>I was going to back up to the New York

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Post their cover today, which I had in front of me.

0:15:51.600 --> 0:15:55.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't right now, but is something about your general manager.

0:15:55.720 --> 0:16:00.160
<v Speaker 1>It was Trump yaling Vladimir and it was basically making

0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>Trump for sticks and stones, will break my bones for

0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:07.080
<v Speaker 1>just you know, hey, stop Vladimir and having echoes of

0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Biden's don't, which is you know, it's a a that's

0:16:13.800 --> 0:16:17.680
<v Speaker 1>a fairly painful critique. I think of Trump and I'm

0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:20.800
<v Speaker 1>as covery of week twenty four hours. For Trump, it

0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.760
<v Speaker 1>had a very strong whiff of don't of Joe Biden,

0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:29.440
<v Speaker 1>don't to me oof. That is that is critical. My

0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.560
<v Speaker 1>real sticking point with this is that, and I've come

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>across a couple of my favorite commentators who agreed completely

0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:40.400
<v Speaker 1>the idea that look, both countries want peace is simply

0:16:40.440 --> 0:16:42.920
<v Speaker 1>not true. No, it's not at all. And that is

0:16:42.960 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 1>what Trump and witcoffin company have been asserting over and

0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:50.560
<v Speaker 1>over again. I don't see that at all. Speak speaking

0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:55.280
<v Speaker 1>of Russia, thirty seconds left. Russian military court on Thursday

0:16:55.440 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>sentenced Dive and Popov, former Russian commander who'd criticized senior

0:16:59.680 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 1>mid military leaders, to five years in a penal colony

0:17:03.320 --> 0:17:06.000
<v Speaker 1>for fraud in corruption, that sort of thing. That's the

0:17:06.000 --> 0:17:10.520
<v Speaker 1>beauty of running an oligarchy where everybody is corrupt. Chijin

0:17:10.560 --> 0:17:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Ping will tell you this, If you need to get

0:17:12.160 --> 0:17:13.960
<v Speaker 1>rid of somebody, you just point your finger and say

0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:17.879
<v Speaker 1>he's corrupt. He's thinking everybody's corrupt around here, right. We

0:17:17.960 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 1>got clips of the week coming up Armstrong and Getty.

0:17:22.840 --> 0:17:27.800
<v Speaker 1>Fifty world leaders are headed to Rome right now, including

0:17:27.840 --> 0:17:31.040
<v Speaker 1>President Donald Trump. He's on his way to Italy for

0:17:31.160 --> 0:17:34.880
<v Speaker 1>the big Pope funeral tomorrow. He'll be there. Zelenski will

0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:39.000
<v Speaker 1>be there. Prince William because his dad, the King, is

0:17:39.160 --> 0:17:41.840
<v Speaker 1>ill or something. But anyway, lots of world Joe Biden's

0:17:41.880 --> 0:17:45.600
<v Speaker 1>going to be there. Is Pope Francis here, Pope Francis,

0:17:45.640 --> 0:17:50.680
<v Speaker 1>where are you come on? Is? Joe Biden will be there.

0:17:50.880 --> 0:17:54.960
<v Speaker 1>He is Yeah, highest ranking Catholic we've ever had. Yeah,

0:17:55.040 --> 0:17:57.719
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden will be there. Jean Paul the second I

0:17:57.800 --> 0:18:01.160
<v Speaker 1>was told, John Paul the Second was here. Yeah. Boy,

0:18:01.280 --> 0:18:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I've got a couple of stories on his mental decline.

0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 1>As more and more folks are speaking openly, it was

0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:12.040
<v Speaker 1>one hundred percent the plan to just drag the senile

0:18:12.080 --> 0:18:15.199
<v Speaker 1>old mummy across the finish line, then figure out what

0:18:15.280 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 1>to do, because everybody knew what was happening, including the

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:23.199
<v Speaker 1>American people. So the fact that the Sharad continued as

0:18:23.240 --> 0:18:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a mark of true desperation or insanity or something. I mean,

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:31.960
<v Speaker 1>it is the plan that could not work. In a

0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 1>couple of moments, while I didn't have any interest in

0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.520
<v Speaker 1>the NFL draft. I do have some interest in who

0:18:37.600 --> 0:18:40.160
<v Speaker 1>ends up being the pope, and I have an opinion,

0:18:40.560 --> 0:18:45.200
<v Speaker 1>though it might now unfounded. So the Catholic Church draft

0:18:45.280 --> 0:18:48.200
<v Speaker 1>is the one you're watching. And okay, fine and dandy,

0:18:48.240 --> 0:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>But first let's take a fond look back at the

0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.399
<v Speaker 1>week there was. It's cow clips of the Week for

0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:56.040
<v Speaker 1>all the beautiful creerdos. I'm having a party ever eat

0:18:56.080 --> 0:19:03.119
<v Speaker 1>a poondry huh week, We're in a way. Mo wouldn't

0:19:03.160 --> 0:19:05.200
<v Speaker 1>let us out of the car and it would not move.

0:19:05.600 --> 0:19:08.879
<v Speaker 4>He would not let us out, and he was coming

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:12.359
<v Speaker 4>back down toward this and he goes run.

0:19:12.680 --> 0:19:16.320
<v Speaker 1>He's got a gun. Yo, you gotta be kidding me.

0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Walmart now has this big locked up Holy yeah, we

0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:25.120
<v Speaker 1>on TV. That's that olive oil you've been drinking. No, hey,

0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:29.119
<v Speaker 1>take the matches with you. She got to the stop

0:19:29.200 --> 0:19:32.760
<v Speaker 1>sign where she proceeded to kick a solo cup out

0:19:32.760 --> 0:19:36.680
<v Speaker 1>of the side of the mail truck. Just look at

0:19:36.680 --> 0:19:41.320
<v Speaker 1>CNN's Fear and Greed Index. We're in fear territory right now.

0:19:42.240 --> 0:19:46.680
<v Speaker 1>President Trump lashing out at Ukraine's president. Yeah, I thought

0:19:46.800 --> 0:19:49.200
<v Speaker 1>it might be easier to deal with Selenski. So far,

0:19:49.240 --> 0:19:53.280
<v Speaker 1>it's been harder, but that's okay. I'm not sure you

0:19:53.320 --> 0:19:56.280
<v Speaker 1>know what concessions Putin will ever be willing to make,

0:19:56.280 --> 0:19:59.560
<v Speaker 1>but he surely hadn't made very many so far. A

0:19:59.600 --> 0:20:01.080
<v Speaker 1>lot happening here.

0:20:01.680 --> 0:20:06.240
<v Speaker 4>There is a lot of change happening inside Iran. It

0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.440
<v Speaker 4>Disgruntled former employees are peddling things to try to save

0:20:09.480 --> 0:20:10.200
<v Speaker 4>their ass.

0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:14.800
<v Speaker 1>Tesla announcing it's profits have plunged a staggering seventy one percent.

0:20:15.760 --> 0:20:20.600
<v Speaker 1>My time, aucation it's doge will drop significantly. The US

0:20:20.680 --> 0:20:23.720
<v Speaker 1>Treasury Secretary Scott Vessen said behind closed doors that he

0:20:23.840 --> 0:20:27.960
<v Speaker 1>sees the US China train war as unsustainable. I'm not

0:20:28.000 --> 0:20:30.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna say, oh, I'm going to play hardball with China.

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:33.119
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to play hardball with you. President. She no. No.

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:36.240
<v Speaker 4>In the budget I will present to you, we will

0:20:36.280 --> 0:20:39.680
<v Speaker 4>try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal.

0:20:39.359 --> 0:20:40.880
<v Speaker 1>Aliens whore arrested for crimes.

0:20:41.800 --> 0:20:44.720
<v Speaker 4>We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also

0:20:44.760 --> 0:20:46.120
<v Speaker 4>a nation of laws.

0:20:47.280 --> 0:20:49.959
<v Speaker 1>Today we're going to have a reading of Pride Puppy.

0:20:50.840 --> 0:20:54.080
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't get more innocent than a children's alphabet book.

0:20:55.040 --> 0:21:01.080
<v Speaker 1>For all the beautiful queerdos dancing over the Rainbow Bridge.

0:21:01.520 --> 0:21:03.840
<v Speaker 1>I suspect there are a lot of non religious parents

0:21:03.920 --> 0:21:07.120
<v Speaker 1>who were into all that. Thrilled about this. By the way,

0:21:07.160 --> 0:21:09.359
<v Speaker 1>eat more beans, good for you, make America healthy again

0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:11.680
<v Speaker 1>and flagelent. But it's good for it. You got to

0:21:11.680 --> 0:21:14.320
<v Speaker 1>ease into it. That's the key with beans. Ease into it. Anyway,

0:21:14.320 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 1>that's the key with beans. There's so much to unpack there.

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I was struck by Bill Clinton's use of the term

0:21:23.320 --> 0:21:26.520
<v Speaker 1>illegal aliens as the president. I happen to be watching

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:28.800
<v Speaker 1>a special report with Brett Bear last night, and I

0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:31.760
<v Speaker 1>think it was David Spunt was the reporter was talking

0:21:31.800 --> 0:21:35.840
<v Speaker 1>about some illegal aliens related story, and he started to

0:21:35.880 --> 0:21:41.879
<v Speaker 1>say immigrants, and he corrected himself to say migrants. I

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:46.520
<v Speaker 1>continue to be amazed at folks, even on the right,

0:21:47.080 --> 0:21:50.879
<v Speaker 1>their willingness to let the left impose language upon them

0:21:51.160 --> 0:21:55.400
<v Speaker 1>and apparently not even know it's being done.

0:21:55.520 --> 0:21:57.520
<v Speaker 2>And then how about that news report about the book

0:21:57.560 --> 0:22:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Pride Puppy, which is the focus of that Supreme Court case,

0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:03.400
<v Speaker 2>in which the news reporter says, what could be more

0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:05.600
<v Speaker 2>innocent than a children's alphabet book?

0:22:06.040 --> 0:22:08.960
<v Speaker 1>You really pretending you don't know? It's about the fact

0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:12.600
<v Speaker 1>that there's drag queen stuff in the book, and you're

0:22:12.600 --> 0:22:14.520
<v Speaker 1>not allowed to opt out of it. Come on now,

0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:19.080
<v Speaker 1>S is for sun and sodomy. It's a nice, innocent

0:22:19.240 --> 0:22:23.600
<v Speaker 1>children's book. You people are either so stupid you ought

0:22:23.600 --> 0:22:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to be in the care of the state, or just

0:22:25.400 --> 0:22:30.919
<v Speaker 1>obnoxiously dishonest. Speaking of obnoxious, one more quick note. I

0:22:30.960 --> 0:22:34.480
<v Speaker 1>love this Andrew Styles writing in The Free Beacon, A

0:22:34.520 --> 0:22:37.679
<v Speaker 1>belatedly Happy Earth Day to anyone who missed it. That

0:22:37.880 --> 0:22:41.399
<v Speaker 1>was apparently I don't know. Twenty day is twenty second

0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 1>somewhere around there's Earth Day. I forget it every year.

0:22:45.480 --> 0:22:49.320
<v Speaker 1>It's a nothing. But Andrew uses the S word and

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:51.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't approve, so I'll just say poop. But he

0:22:51.400 --> 0:22:54.160
<v Speaker 1>says blated happy Earth data to anyone who gives up poop.

0:22:54.400 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 1>If CNN's chief climate correspondent Bill Weir is right, he

0:22:57.560 --> 0:23:00.399
<v Speaker 1>definitely isn't. But for the sake of the argument, it

0:23:00.440 --> 0:23:03.000
<v Speaker 1>could be the last one we'll ever get to celebrate.

0:23:03.560 --> 0:23:06.120
<v Speaker 1>So here's who this guy is. He did not even

0:23:06.160 --> 0:23:09.760
<v Speaker 1>about it. Even by low standards of mainstream journalism. Weir

0:23:10.000 --> 0:23:13.040
<v Speaker 1>is a horribly obnoxious liberal weirdo. It's best known for

0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:16.600
<v Speaker 1>naming his son River after conceiving him quote in a lighthouse,

0:23:17.080 --> 0:23:20.720
<v Speaker 1>and for celebrating the Yes, I know, I should probably

0:23:20.720 --> 0:23:23.720
<v Speaker 1>pause after every you know phraser. There's too much coming here,

0:23:23.800 --> 0:23:26.679
<v Speaker 1>too fast. Yeah, conceive your kid in a lighthouse? Is

0:23:26.720 --> 0:23:30.639
<v Speaker 1>that some sort of poetic something or other I don't understand.

0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:33.199
<v Speaker 1>Or maybe the phallic nature of the White House gave

0:23:33.240 --> 0:23:35.920
<v Speaker 1>him a lighthouse, given an idea. I don't know. But see,

0:23:35.960 --> 0:23:38.639
<v Speaker 1>he conceived his son in a lighthouse and named him River,

0:23:39.119 --> 0:23:42.000
<v Speaker 1>all right. Ah, And he's known for celebrating the child's

0:23:42.000 --> 0:23:45.200
<v Speaker 1>birth by publishing an absurdly long and absurdly public letter

0:23:45.600 --> 0:23:49.440
<v Speaker 1>apologizing to the child for bringing him into a polluted

0:23:49.480 --> 0:23:53.160
<v Speaker 1>world full of greedy corporations and climate change skeptics. Oh,

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:55.720
<v Speaker 1>a letter of apology to your baby when it's born.

0:23:56.160 --> 0:24:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Oh oh, that's that's too much. But wait, there's more

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:04.400
<v Speaker 1>days before the election. In last year, we're told the

0:24:04.400 --> 0:24:09.120
<v Speaker 1>CNN audience that life on Earth may cease to exist

0:24:09.200 --> 0:24:12.919
<v Speaker 1>if Kamala Harris loses. If that's the case, and it

0:24:12.960 --> 0:24:16.720
<v Speaker 1>certainly isn't, Democrats probably shouldn't have nominated such awful candidates,

0:24:16.720 --> 0:24:19.200
<v Speaker 1>says Andrew Styles. And it's a good point. So that

0:24:19.400 --> 0:24:25.200
<v Speaker 1>person CNN's climate chief climate correspondent. That's worth knowing. That's

0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:31.000
<v Speaker 1>worth knowing. So the their main person that's going to

0:24:31.080 --> 0:24:33.040
<v Speaker 1>tell you about the hurricane and how it's because of

0:24:33.080 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 1>climate change is obviously crazy. I mean that is the

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:40.240
<v Speaker 1>display of a crazy person. Yeah, he is a full

0:24:40.800 --> 0:24:47.399
<v Speaker 1>blown the sky is falling wacky doodle. Yeah wow. Speaking

0:24:47.400 --> 0:24:51.840
<v Speaker 1>of media institutions whose battery is flashing red CNN, please,

0:24:52.040 --> 0:24:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh hey, I didn't. I don't even pay much attention

0:24:54.560 --> 0:24:57.920
<v Speaker 1>to them anymore at all. That is wild. I would

0:24:57.960 --> 0:24:59.600
<v Speaker 1>like to know more. I'm gonna have to dig that

0:24:59.680 --> 0:25:04.480
<v Speaker 1>up because he's probably explained the I'm sure very poetic

0:25:04.600 --> 0:25:08.680
<v Speaker 1>and deep significance of conceiving your baby in a lighthouse,

0:25:09.160 --> 0:25:15.879
<v Speaker 1>but writing a letter of apology to the kid, it

0:25:16.000 --> 0:25:20.239
<v Speaker 1>is so self aggrandize. It is it is. It is

0:25:20.400 --> 0:25:22.119
<v Speaker 1>all look at me, look at me, look at me,

0:25:22.440 --> 0:25:24.240
<v Speaker 1>all of it. And then that weird thing that we

0:25:24.280 --> 0:25:27.880
<v Speaker 1>talk about a lot where however, this got flipped upside

0:25:27.920 --> 0:25:30.520
<v Speaker 1>down somewhere in the eighties or nineties or never happened

0:25:30.600 --> 0:25:33.920
<v Speaker 1>because being resilient and tough used to be cool. That's

0:25:33.960 --> 0:25:38.120
<v Speaker 1>how you got attention. Now, the more hurt you are

0:25:38.320 --> 0:25:41.359
<v Speaker 1>by the world. The more un afraid. Yeah, the more

0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:44.679
<v Speaker 1>afraid you are, the more attention you get. So the

0:25:44.680 --> 0:25:47.800
<v Speaker 1>more social currency you get, the more approval you get.

0:25:47.960 --> 0:25:49.879
<v Speaker 1>I had to write a letter of apology to my

0:25:49.960 --> 0:25:54.679
<v Speaker 1>baby for bringing them into a polluted world where the

0:25:54.720 --> 0:25:58.040
<v Speaker 1>corporations are Oh my god, Ah, I've got to throw up.

0:25:58.920 --> 0:26:01.120
<v Speaker 1>You know. I was gonna say, is there We're gonna

0:26:01.119 --> 0:26:03.680
<v Speaker 1>have to clean that up? I was gonna say, is

0:26:03.720 --> 0:26:06.360
<v Speaker 1>there a good solid term for a fellow like him?

0:26:06.680 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I think snowflake is about as good as it gets.

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:13.720
<v Speaker 1>But crazy you're crazy? Or or or cry bully is

0:26:13.760 --> 0:26:17.240
<v Speaker 1>another term. I really like the people who constantly are

0:26:17.560 --> 0:26:20.520
<v Speaker 1>whining about how put upon and afraid they are, and

0:26:20.640 --> 0:26:24.639
<v Speaker 1>yet they're vicious bullies. Cry bully. That's what this Bill

0:26:24.720 --> 0:26:28.400
<v Speaker 1>Weir is. What a show that's wild. I look forward

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:30.800
<v Speaker 1>to him telling me about the next tornado and how

0:26:30.800 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 1>that represents climate change. Now that I know his backstory,

0:26:34.240 --> 0:26:36.240
<v Speaker 1>I do have an opinion on who I think should

0:26:36.240 --> 0:26:37.600
<v Speaker 1>be the pope that I want to talk about at

0:26:37.640 --> 0:26:39.879
<v Speaker 1>some point. But we do have mail bag on the

0:26:39.880 --> 0:26:41.280
<v Speaker 1>way and lots of good stuff you want to weigh

0:26:41.280 --> 0:26:43.320
<v Speaker 1>in on anything. Our text line is four one five

0:26:43.359 --> 0:26:53.399
<v Speaker 1>two nine five KFTC. David Ignatius of the Washington Post,

0:26:53.440 --> 0:26:58.480
<v Speaker 1>one of the more respected senior sort of geopolitical analyzers

0:26:58.640 --> 0:27:01.680
<v Speaker 1>in America, writes for the as I said, You've got

0:27:01.720 --> 0:27:07.400
<v Speaker 1>a fairly optimistic article today about Trump's plan to try

0:27:07.440 --> 0:27:10.760
<v Speaker 1>to end this war. Seems to think it's got a

0:27:10.800 --> 0:27:15.119
<v Speaker 1>real shot, which is interesting. Interesting. Indeed. Also, who's the

0:27:15.200 --> 0:27:20.840
<v Speaker 1>strongest war hawk against Iran in Washington, d C. Here's

0:27:20.880 --> 0:27:25.359
<v Speaker 1>a hint. He's a giant, bald headed Democrat. Oh stay

0:27:25.400 --> 0:27:28.880
<v Speaker 1>with us, right, yeah, yeah, here's your freedom loving quote

0:27:28.880 --> 0:27:31.160
<v Speaker 1>of the day. I was flipping through my many collections

0:27:31.160 --> 0:27:34.080
<v Speaker 1>of fabulous quotes and I came across one of the

0:27:34.119 --> 0:27:37.359
<v Speaker 1>worst freedom loving quotes of the day I've ever seen.

0:27:37.400 --> 0:27:40.359
<v Speaker 1>It's terrible, and it explains a lot. This is from

0:27:40.560 --> 0:27:46.800
<v Speaker 1>Fdr Franklin Deleanor, Socialist Roosevelt. True individual freedom cannot exist

0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:51.199
<v Speaker 1>without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and

0:27:51.240 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 1>out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships

0:27:54.280 --> 0:27:58.800
<v Speaker 1>are made. M Well, now that last part is not

0:27:58.960 --> 0:28:03.400
<v Speaker 1>like completely untrue. If you have a desperate populace, they're

0:28:03.440 --> 0:28:06.320
<v Speaker 1>desperate to be led to something or other. But the

0:28:06.400 --> 0:28:10.320
<v Speaker 1>idea that true individual freedom cannot exist without economic security

0:28:10.359 --> 0:28:13.359
<v Speaker 1>and quote unquote independence. Therefore, we're going to make a

0:28:13.400 --> 0:28:15.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of people dependent on the government and they'll have

0:28:15.720 --> 0:28:18.440
<v Speaker 1>true freedom. That is one of the most perverse statements

0:28:18.440 --> 0:28:21.040
<v Speaker 1>I've ever seen. That's interesting. I wonder if he believed that,

0:28:21.160 --> 0:28:25.000
<v Speaker 1>if he thought, you know, if I give people enough

0:28:25.720 --> 0:28:30.399
<v Speaker 1>that they don't want freedom from want, then they'll be free.

0:28:31.240 --> 0:28:35.199
<v Speaker 1>Interesting now because I try to see both sides. In

0:28:35.280 --> 0:28:38.640
<v Speaker 1>the era, the actual era of the actual Hitler and

0:28:38.680 --> 0:28:44.360
<v Speaker 1>the fascists, etc. Yes, those people were economically really downtrodden

0:28:44.360 --> 0:28:47.000
<v Speaker 1>and looking for an answer, and he was saying, we

0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:49.000
<v Speaker 1>don't want people to be so desperate they're looking for

0:28:49.040 --> 0:28:52.200
<v Speaker 1>an extreme answer. I get that, but it's the first

0:28:52.200 --> 0:28:55.120
<v Speaker 1>part that strikes me as perverse. You dropped an h bam.

0:28:55.240 --> 0:28:57.400
<v Speaker 1>Have you seen the back and forth between Bill Maher

0:28:57.520 --> 0:29:00.720
<v Speaker 1>and Larry David. I have not overhe We'll have to

0:29:00.720 --> 0:29:02.840
<v Speaker 1>get We'll have to get into that later, good lord.

0:29:03.040 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 1>And ironically, not far down the list of my quotes

0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:10.560
<v Speaker 1>about freedom, here's Eleanor Roosevelt his bride. Freedom makes a

0:29:10.640 --> 0:29:14.280
<v Speaker 1>huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility

0:29:14.480 --> 0:29:16.680
<v Speaker 1>for the person who is unwilling to grow up the

0:29:16.680 --> 0:29:18.760
<v Speaker 1>person who does not want to carry his own weight.

0:29:18.960 --> 0:29:22.880
<v Speaker 1>This is a frightening prospect. Man. I'd take old eleanor

0:29:22.960 --> 0:29:25.280
<v Speaker 1>ten times out of ten over the old man. Was

0:29:25.320 --> 0:29:30.280
<v Speaker 1>she a softball player? Yes? Yeah, allegedly okay yeah. Batted

0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:37.760
<v Speaker 1>from both sides, they said, mail bag an unfortunate exchange.

0:29:38.280 --> 0:29:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Drop us a note, would your mail bag at Armstrong

0:29:40.080 --> 0:29:42.920
<v Speaker 1>and gedddy dot com Going with the lighter fare mostly

0:29:43.080 --> 0:29:46.719
<v Speaker 1>first of all, this Kevin from Kevin, even though I'm

0:29:46.720 --> 0:29:48.560
<v Speaker 1>fairly sure you guys aren't the Babylon p I'd like

0:29:48.600 --> 0:29:52.600
<v Speaker 1>to submit the following headlines. Nonetheless, UK braces for violence

0:29:52.640 --> 0:29:56.920
<v Speaker 1>in the wake of India Pakistan conflict. The subhead local

0:29:56.960 --> 0:30:01.440
<v Speaker 1>politicians now arming their underage harems in preper for urban warfare,

0:30:03.480 --> 0:30:07.800
<v Speaker 1>a reference to the India Pakistan budding conflict and many

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:10.920
<v Speaker 1>of the EMMA grees from those countries in the UK.

0:30:11.320 --> 0:30:16.000
<v Speaker 1>And that could get pretty spicy. Two nuclear powers, Yeah yeah,

0:30:17.280 --> 0:30:21.440
<v Speaker 1>how about this from oh Concluding, I pray our discussion

0:30:21.480 --> 0:30:26.240
<v Speaker 1>of papoosas the national dish of El Salvador, I guess

0:30:26.240 --> 0:30:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and said to be delicious by Jesson Wiley, Texas. We're

0:30:30.200 --> 0:30:32.960
<v Speaker 1>the best thing that ever had happened to papoosas or whatever.

0:30:33.000 --> 0:30:38.360
<v Speaker 1>Hell this is from Denzel. My girlfriend usually gives me

0:30:38.520 --> 0:30:45.480
<v Speaker 1>papoosa on my Birthdayzell, be better than that, my friend. Oh,

0:30:45.560 --> 0:30:48.400
<v Speaker 1>that's okay on a Friday. No other day do better

0:30:48.440 --> 0:30:51.360
<v Speaker 1>than that. Yeah, that's a rough joke. Huh. How about

0:30:51.400 --> 0:30:54.800
<v Speaker 1>this from Sean. We were discussing yesterday. Jack brought us

0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:59.720
<v Speaker 1>some insight about the things that will doom a relationship

0:31:00.360 --> 0:31:04.800
<v Speaker 1>and how most couples have only roughly three arguments that

0:31:04.880 --> 0:31:08.240
<v Speaker 1>they have over and over again. Maybe this particular's change,

0:31:08.240 --> 0:31:12.040
<v Speaker 1>but it's essentially the same argument. Yeah, that's fascinating, Sean Wrights.

0:31:12.120 --> 0:31:14.000
<v Speaker 1>My wife and I sometimes joke about how there's an

0:31:14.080 --> 0:31:16.400
<v Speaker 1>argument we always have, but luckily it's about something we

0:31:16.440 --> 0:31:19.920
<v Speaker 1>both think is stupid. What if your number three argument

0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:25.680
<v Speaker 1>is over what the number three argument actually is? Oh wow,

0:31:26.400 --> 0:31:29.680
<v Speaker 1>you just can't settle that. What if argument number two

0:31:29.720 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 1>is why did I ever marry you? Oh? Lord, that's

0:31:33.360 --> 0:31:36.760
<v Speaker 1>a tough argument. On the topic of Greenland Ice, let's

0:31:36.800 --> 0:31:40.680
<v Speaker 1>see different. Kevin Rights, Hey, a big freedom and perpetually

0:31:40.680 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 1>sick Jack Kevin the Texas Marine with a thought on

0:31:43.560 --> 0:31:46.280
<v Speaker 1>those paying big money for Greenland's soon to be our

0:31:46.360 --> 0:31:49.560
<v Speaker 1>new estate, or so I hear ice. Yeah, we were

0:31:49.560 --> 0:31:52.959
<v Speaker 1>talking about this yesterday. People paying exorbitant rates for you know,

0:31:53.200 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>centuries old, eons old ice from Greenland. Those paying two

0:31:57.360 --> 0:31:59.560
<v Speaker 1>hundred and eighty bucks for a drink merely because it

0:31:59.560 --> 0:32:01.720
<v Speaker 1>contains one hundred thousand year old ice. Reminds you of

0:32:01.760 --> 0:32:04.360
<v Speaker 1>something I once read. The question isn't why a fool

0:32:04.400 --> 0:32:06.640
<v Speaker 1>and his money are easily parted. The question is how

0:32:06.680 --> 0:32:09.240
<v Speaker 1>the fool and his money got together in the first place.

0:32:09.360 --> 0:32:13.920
<v Speaker 1>All right, Yeah, that's interesting. The perpetually sick Jack, a

0:32:13.920 --> 0:32:15.760
<v Speaker 1>friend of mine brought this up the other day, said,

0:32:15.880 --> 0:32:17.640
<v Speaker 1>you know how many times you've been sick in the

0:32:17.720 --> 0:32:23.120
<v Speaker 1>last like six months? And I don't keep track, but yeah,

0:32:23.160 --> 0:32:28.600
<v Speaker 1>way too often. And they asked, does having cancer change

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:30.479
<v Speaker 1>your immune system so you get sick more often? I think,

0:32:30.560 --> 0:32:32.600
<v Speaker 1>I am. I don't know that I've ever. I was

0:32:32.600 --> 0:32:34.640
<v Speaker 1>going to do a little research on that, but yeah,

0:32:34.680 --> 0:32:38.840
<v Speaker 1>I have gotten fairly sick, way too many times in

0:32:38.880 --> 0:32:42.200
<v Speaker 1>the last year. You know what it feels to me.

0:32:42.200 --> 0:32:45.200
<v Speaker 1>And I haven't done a statistical with that word again,

0:32:45.280 --> 0:32:49.040
<v Speaker 1>is statistical study on this. But it seems to me

0:32:49.120 --> 0:32:53.440
<v Speaker 1>that your lads are ill a lot too, having raised

0:32:53.480 --> 0:32:57.800
<v Speaker 1>three kids myself and I have you formed a theory

0:32:57.800 --> 0:33:00.720
<v Speaker 1>in my head, utterly without dad to support it, that

0:33:01.120 --> 0:33:03.680
<v Speaker 1>there's something about your immune system that's a little different

0:33:03.760 --> 0:33:07.680
<v Speaker 1>than other folks. Maybe genetically speaking. It's not shocking, not

0:33:07.800 --> 0:33:11.840
<v Speaker 1>that genetic difference. Never gets sick. My mom got sick once,

0:33:11.960 --> 0:33:14.160
<v Speaker 1>so I don't know where this comes from. Skips a

0:33:14.200 --> 0:33:18.680
<v Speaker 1>generation or two. Who knows anyway, get well soon. Let's

0:33:18.680 --> 0:33:22.960
<v Speaker 1>see Jack is a menace, writes there recently mentioned Jess

0:33:23.000 --> 0:33:25.960
<v Speaker 1>and Wiley Texas. Joe, you must find a way to

0:33:26.080 --> 0:33:28.719
<v Speaker 1>strange Ac during mail bag. He's always interrupting my excellent

0:33:28.720 --> 0:33:32.040
<v Speaker 1>emails with his outbursts. I suggest enlisting Katie to exist.

0:33:32.160 --> 0:33:34.400
<v Speaker 1>Next time he interrupts, have her punch him right in

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:36.360
<v Speaker 1>the neck. She'll be fine. He won't hit a girl

0:33:36.400 --> 0:33:39.240
<v Speaker 1>on moral grounds. Hi, he doesn't even believe men should

0:33:39.280 --> 0:33:43.880
<v Speaker 1>hit women during Olympic sanctioned boxing matches. Jack ps and

0:33:43.960 --> 0:33:46.560
<v Speaker 1>this is my favorite part. If you don't want the pain,

0:33:47.240 --> 0:33:52.800
<v Speaker 1>stay in your lane. Wow. I'm gonna use that in

0:33:52.840 --> 0:33:58.240
<v Speaker 1>the future. And finally, this Lisa from Beautiful Elverta talking

0:33:58.240 --> 0:34:01.240
<v Speaker 1>about child stars as we were earlier in the week,

0:34:01.520 --> 0:34:06.080
<v Speaker 1>specifically referencing Haley Joel osmond I was recently visiting a

0:34:06.080 --> 0:34:08.120
<v Speaker 1>friend in Texas for her daughter's baby shower, she writes.

0:34:08.160 --> 0:34:09.680
<v Speaker 1>One of the women shared a story of her friend's

0:34:09.680 --> 0:34:12.080
<v Speaker 1>three year old daughter, who told her little friend that

0:34:12.080 --> 0:34:14.680
<v Speaker 1>she wouldn't be joining her at preschool because quote, I

0:34:14.760 --> 0:34:17.920
<v Speaker 1>make too much money at home. What out of the

0:34:17.960 --> 0:34:21.239
<v Speaker 1>mouths of babes huh? The woman explained, the girl's parents

0:34:21.360 --> 0:34:23.520
<v Speaker 1>dress her up and do activities which they post on

0:34:23.560 --> 0:34:26.480
<v Speaker 1>social media, for which they are paid well by having

0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:29.279
<v Speaker 1>so many followers. The mother of the baby shower mom

0:34:29.320 --> 0:34:31.560
<v Speaker 1>to be, said she thought her daughter should go back

0:34:31.560 --> 0:34:34.160
<v Speaker 1>to work maintaining her more than comfortable income while her

0:34:34.200 --> 0:34:36.680
<v Speaker 1>husband stayed home to raise the baby. He'd do so

0:34:36.800 --> 0:34:42.200
<v Speaker 1>many things with the baby that he could post. So sad.

0:34:43.080 --> 0:34:47.359
<v Speaker 1>And then she talks about a friend whose child has

0:34:47.400 --> 0:34:51.320
<v Speaker 1>a physical deformity, but she has close to two hundred

0:34:51.480 --> 0:34:55.440
<v Speaker 1>thousand followers, the theme being yes, she has this handicap,

0:34:55.480 --> 0:34:58.480
<v Speaker 1>but we still do great things together. Blah blah blah.

0:34:58.520 --> 0:35:01.520
<v Speaker 1>She got a check for over five grand a couple

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:04.439
<v Speaker 1>of months ago for a month for one month. Why

0:35:04.440 --> 0:35:08.200
<v Speaker 1>it's insane and hard to turn down? Once the spigot opens. Wow,

0:35:08.600 --> 0:35:14.040
<v Speaker 1>that's the modern child star. You're right, the Internet, social media,

0:35:14.120 --> 0:35:19.920
<v Speaker 1>you're right. Will it have similarly unsavory repercussions for the

0:35:19.960 --> 0:35:22.120
<v Speaker 1>child down the road? I don't know. No, we don't.

0:35:22.320 --> 0:35:24.440
<v Speaker 1>That's really interesting. Hey, if you missed a segment with

0:35:24.440 --> 0:35:28.280
