WEBVTT - Urinating Here, There, Everywhere! 0:00:01.870 --> 0:00:05.710 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the 0:00:05.750 --> 0:00:07.750 George Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.790 --> 0:00:12.049 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. Armstrong and Getty. And now, 0:00:12.450 --> 0:00:17.329 here's Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:17.810 --> 0:00:27.990 The jury is still in deliberation in the Clancy trial 0:00:28.470 --> 0:00:30.790 and could get a verdict today or tomorrow or who 0:00:30.830 --> 0:00:34.229 knows when, but Hasn't had a verdict yet, if you're 0:00:34.250 --> 0:00:38.350 wondering about that. The CIA director visited Moscow the other day. 0:00:38.370 --> 0:00:42.270 That's not a normal thing. Why did he visit? Well, 0:00:42.310 --> 0:00:46.760 we had one report on why. There were two reasons 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:48.860 he went, and I hadn't heard the other one. We'll 0:00:48.880 --> 0:00:51.159 bring that to you in just a little bit. Looking 0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:54.040 forward to that. But first, it's the beloved Friday traditional. 0:00:54.080 --> 0:00:56.100 Let's take a fond look back at the week that was. 0:00:56.160 --> 0:01:00.210 It's Cow Clips of the Week. It's Cow. They call 0:01:00.270 --> 0:01:01.210 it Cow. 0:01:01.410 --> 0:01:05.830 Clips of the Week. It's Cow. Jurors heard from 84 witnesses. 0:01:06.130 --> 0:01:09.560 Prosecutors sought to prove that Lindsay Clancy murdered her three children. 0:01:10.459 --> 0:01:13.060 This young lady did nothing wrong in her life. 0:01:14.100 --> 0:01:17.670 She was a nurse, a daughter, a wife, and a 0:01:17.750 --> 0:01:18.470 darn good mother. 0:01:19.630 --> 0:01:23.970 The majority of people believe that Lindsay Clancy is not 0:01:24.050 --> 0:01:28.809 criminally responsible. President Trump has now imposed a 50% tariff 0:01:28.850 --> 0:01:31.589 on about $ 20 billion in Canadian goods. 0:01:32.590 --> 0:01:34.420 I have a lot of real estate on my ass, 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:36.520 so he has a lot of room to kiss my ass. 0:01:37.600 --> 0:01:40.840 Meta agreeing to pay up to $ 18 billion in a 0:01:40.900 --> 0:01:41.640 landmark deal. 0:01:42.750 --> 0:01:43.809 Meta has agreed. 0:01:43.550 --> 0:01:47.270 To set a default daily time limit of two hours. 0:01:48.470 --> 0:01:51.160 Rescue teams in Nepal are in a race against time 0:01:51.220 --> 0:01:52.860 as they search for any survivors. 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:56.500 The mystery under the streets of New York after three 0:01:56.540 --> 0:01:58.880 men were captured on video climbing out of the New 0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.900 York City sewer system. I'd like to propose that Los 0:02:02.020 --> 0:02:06.400 Angeles consider a pilot program for free hygienic sexual relief clinics. 0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.520 This is the first known time John Ratcliffe has visited 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:20.040 Moscow as CIA director. Well, there's a lesson for those 0:02:20.060 --> 0:02:21.280 who want to become a billionaire. 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:26.910 Be thrifty with whores. And you know how many of 0:02:26.950 --> 0:02:29.410 them brought up Taiwan or national security? 0:02:29.810 --> 0:02:30.630 Not one. 0:02:31.630 --> 0:02:33.980 So you think it's okay for a parent to slash 0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:36.620 his kid's thing? Do you really want to have this conversation? 0:02:36.660 --> 0:02:42.460 Are you circumcised? Yeah, yeah. I literally didn't even know that. Seriously. 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:43.579 By the way, I put books in there. I don't 0:02:43.600 --> 0:02:44.600 know if you saw the photos. 0:02:50.370 --> 0:02:53.630 America does not deserve that. That's my new thing. 0:02:57.480 --> 0:03:01.120 Robot robots in China are breaking human records for speed. 0:03:02.590 --> 0:03:06.769 Far away, away from having robot soldiers. I think five 0:03:06.790 --> 0:03:07.530 to ten years. 0:03:08.570 --> 0:03:11.370 America is waking up without Dolly Parton. 0:03:12.310 --> 0:03:14.710 People are always asking if they're real. 0:03:14.990 --> 0:03:18.410 Oh, I would never. But I would give about a 0:03:18.470 --> 0:03:19.669 year's pay to peek under there. 0:03:22.660 --> 0:03:25.080 The number one Dolly Parton pet peeve. 0:03:25.460 --> 0:03:30.220 Nobody notices I've got a great ass, too. Well, I 0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:34.920 dreamed I saw the silver spaceships fly. 0:03:34.980 --> 0:03:38.940 In the yellow haze of the sun. 0:03:40.030 --> 0:03:42.440 There were children. 0:03:41.690 --> 0:03:44.530 Crying and colors. 0:03:43.910 --> 0:04:11.000 Flying all around the chosen ones. That trio stuff with 0:04:11.120 --> 0:04:14.460 Dolly and Emmylou Harris and Leonard Onstead is pretty good. 0:04:15.140 --> 0:04:17.400 Yeah, I got to listen to more of that. It's fantastic. 0:04:17.600 --> 0:04:21.710 Oh, I was reminded the Chinese robot story that ABC 0:04:21.750 --> 0:04:25.390 was so big on and so cheerful and how wonderful 0:04:25.470 --> 0:04:29.729 it was. ABC News with the bent-nosed jackass David Muir. Well, 0:04:30.770 --> 0:04:33.880 I posed the question, and, you know, I could have 0:04:33.900 --> 0:04:36.160 done some digging, but a fellow's only got so much 0:04:36.200 --> 0:04:40.830 time in the day. Is ABC Disney trying to make 0:04:40.930 --> 0:04:43.950 inroads in China? There's got to be an explanation for 0:04:44.010 --> 0:04:48.270 how it was all cheery, happy, no mention of military 0:04:48.410 --> 0:04:51.790 use for these incredibly advanced robots, nothing. Well, a friend 0:04:51.810 --> 0:04:55.650 of the Armstrong and Getty show said the answer is yes. 0:04:55.790 --> 0:04:57.950 Disney came under the sway of the Chinese Communist Party 0:04:57.950 --> 0:05:00.310 10 years ago when it opened the Shanghai Disney Resort. 0:05:00.810 --> 0:05:03.760 Chinese government holds a 57% stake in the theme park 0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:07.880 in Shanghai. Disneyland is Disney's most profitable overseas park. There 0:05:07.900 --> 0:05:11.450 are hundreds of billions of dollars at stake. About 300 0:05:11.450 --> 0:05:14.850 Shanghai Disneyland employees are active members of the CCP and 0:05:14.890 --> 0:05:17.930 take part in political study sessions and CCP cell groups 0:05:18.310 --> 0:05:19.690 on theme park property. 0:05:19.730 --> 0:05:21.560 That's from the Wall Street Journal. 0:05:21.820 --> 0:05:24.900 Disney also makes a lot of revenues releasing movies in 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:25.640 mainland China. 0:05:25.880 --> 0:05:26.400 There's more. 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:27.839 I mean, I don't think of it as just money, 0:05:27.880 --> 0:05:30.440 but number one enemy of the United States, and you're 0:05:31.000 --> 0:05:35.240 not even going to acknowledge as a news organization. The 0:05:35.710 --> 0:05:41.260 military possibilities for the robots or just for the economy, 0:05:41.300 --> 0:05:43.040 if they have them working in their factories or whatever. 0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.600 We're in a competition with China, as you know, David Muir, 0:05:46.620 --> 0:05:50.940 for the future of the world. And you helped them 0:05:51.000 --> 0:05:53.539 do a puff piece to make it seem like they're 0:05:53.560 --> 0:05:56.800 just making robots that can beat somebody at badminton. Isn't 0:05:56.820 --> 0:05:58.160 that cute? Yeah. 0:05:59.490 --> 0:06:03.030 And our correspondent points out, former ABC News senior correspondent 0:06:03.050 --> 0:06:06.270 Terry Moran complained that ABC slow-walked a news story he 0:06:06.310 --> 0:06:09.020 filed in 2021 about the Wuhan lab leak theory. 0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.780 The network ran his story past. 0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:14.080 Anthony Fauci, and it ended up on the air but 0:06:14.300 --> 0:06:17.920 cut to shreds, in Moran's words, by the heavy hand 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:18.820 of censorship. 0:06:18.940 --> 0:06:22.570 You ran a news story by Anthony Fauci before you 0:06:22.610 --> 0:06:24.150 ran it? That's unbelievable. 0:06:24.730 --> 0:06:24.950 Yeah. 0:06:26.050 --> 0:06:27.690 Okay, we're not done with Clips of the Week. We 0:06:27.730 --> 0:06:30.800 need to take a look at Millennials. And their inability 0:06:30.940 --> 0:06:37.620 or unwillingness to pronounce T's. Here's a millennial saying Dolly Parton. 0:06:38.720 --> 0:06:44.630 Dolly Parton. Oh my God, my skin is crawling. Dolly Parton. 0:06:44.910 --> 0:06:45.830 It's a. 0:06:47.330 --> 0:06:48.150 Cultural thing. 0:06:48.350 --> 0:06:54.220 I guess the way gay guys talk a certain way sometimes. 0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:55.300 Lisp. 0:06:56.620 --> 0:06:59.490 Because my son doesn't pronounce T's, but he hasn't going 0:06:59.529 --> 0:07:03.710 back to when he was little. And the way that 0:07:03.750 --> 0:07:06.970 nobody else in the family does. Let me hear it again. 0:07:07.630 --> 0:07:08.450 Dolly Parton. 0:07:08.730 --> 0:07:11.490 I almost find it difficult to talk like that. Dolly Parton. 0:07:11.650 --> 0:07:14.180 It's a little bit painful for me to do that. 0:07:14.330 --> 0:07:15.520 You're going to pull a muscle. 0:07:15.780 --> 0:07:15.980 Yeah. 0:07:16.500 --> 0:07:19.440 To try to leave the T out. Dolly Parton. 0:07:19.660 --> 0:07:22.060 Oh, please stop playing that. It really bothers me. 0:07:22.060 --> 0:07:22.200 Yeah. 0:07:24.640 --> 0:07:26.540 As I've mentioned before, the first time I ever heard 0:07:26.580 --> 0:07:29.380 that was in a singer in a band who's from 0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:36.890 the Los Angeles area. I'm uncertain about Dolly Parton. 0:07:38.430 --> 0:07:41.730 Was that before or after we had that news person 0:07:41.770 --> 0:07:44.010 in Charlotte who did that and it drove us nuts? 0:07:44.300 --> 0:07:45.360 She didn't pronounce her T's. 0:07:46.440 --> 0:07:48.300 She was from Baltimore? 0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:49.240 I don't remember. 0:07:50.100 --> 0:07:53.440 I think there's a weird accent in Baltimore. It's totally unique. 0:07:55.200 --> 0:07:55.760 Yeah, I don't know. 0:07:56.220 --> 0:08:00.830 But it needs to stop. Obviously, a crisis that needs 0:08:00.850 --> 0:08:03.090 to be dealt with. Wanted to mention this to you. 0:08:04.710 --> 0:08:06.790 You've probably heard by now, if you follow the news, 0:08:06.910 --> 0:08:11.360 and clearly you do, that the CIA director, John Radcliffe, 0:08:11.390 --> 0:08:13.640 had landed in Moscow very briefly the other day. It 0:08:13.660 --> 0:08:17.140 was the first time a CIA director had been to 0:08:17.240 --> 0:08:20.880 Russia since Biden sent his CIA director right before the 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:24.090 war with Ukraine started. To warn Putin off. Obviously, that 0:08:24.130 --> 0:08:27.310 did not work. Why did our CIA director go there? Well, 0:08:27.870 --> 0:08:30.810 I was assuming we were assuming that maybe it was 0:08:30.830 --> 0:08:35.040 to warn him off. Attack in a NATO country, because 0:08:35.059 --> 0:08:36.579 that had been a big front page story in The 0:08:36.600 --> 0:08:40.100 New York Times that Putin was preparing to move on Moldova, 0:08:40.820 --> 0:08:42.830 maybe some other countries. And that was part of it. 0:08:42.960 --> 0:08:45.559 The other part was and I thought this was really interesting. 0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:47.360 I remember this is from The New York Times, Wall 0:08:47.380 --> 0:08:52.640 Street Journal, either one. We don't believe Putin's advisors are 0:08:52.660 --> 0:08:57.319 giving him honest assessments of the war's toll. He doesn't 0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:01.440 actually know what we know about how many people are dying, 0:09:01.480 --> 0:09:06.040 how little land they've gotten, all the different things that 0:09:06.140 --> 0:09:09.500 has changed the White House assessment from Russia's clearly going 0:09:09.520 --> 0:09:11.660 to win to, hey, Ukraine could win this. 0:09:12.640 --> 0:09:16.080 A brief aside, you may recall, and this was weeks ago, 0:09:16.140 --> 0:09:20.790 we went through an incredibly interesting account of how endemic 0:09:20.850 --> 0:09:25.260 corruption is in the Russian military and that even low-level 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:29.300 commanders at the squad level, at the larger groups, as 0:09:29.540 --> 0:09:33.800 you go up, everybody's making money hand over fist on 0:09:33.940 --> 0:09:36.660 bribes on the front lines. 0:09:36.700 --> 0:09:37.520 That's probably part of it. 0:09:38.020 --> 0:09:42.530 The guys who report upward lie constantly as they steal. 0:09:43.090 --> 0:09:45.370 So Radcliffe didn't meet with Putin. He met with his 0:09:45.790 --> 0:09:50.130 counterpart over there, the guy that runs the FSB. which 0:09:50.170 --> 0:09:53.740 is their CIA sort of thing over there, and probably 0:09:53.800 --> 0:09:56.480 laying out that stuff too. Hey, we're just letting you know, 0:09:57.770 --> 0:09:59.930 our intelligence shows you got a whole bunch of corrupt 0:09:59.970 --> 0:10:02.510 people stealing stuff. You guys are actually losing. Do you 0:10:02.550 --> 0:10:04.840 realize that you're losing this many troops? Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. 0:10:05.100 --> 0:10:07.340 Does Putin know that? And they're just hoping that the 0:10:07.380 --> 0:10:10.120 information could get past some of the sycophants who don't 0:10:10.140 --> 0:10:12.740 want to tell Putin the truth and actually get to Putin, 0:10:12.760 --> 0:10:15.459 which would help him maybe decide that this ain't worth it. 0:10:15.740 --> 0:10:17.360 He isn't going to come out ahead on this deal. 0:10:18.010 --> 0:10:21.150 Spies make their living knowing everything they can about the 0:10:21.370 --> 0:10:24.290 other spies. And I wonder if Ratcliffe and company had 0:10:24.330 --> 0:10:29.230 some perception that this bloke, um, who's, uh, what agency 0:10:29.330 --> 0:10:31.030 is he with? Cause they got a couple of different ones. 0:10:31.070 --> 0:10:33.030 It doesn't matter, but I wonder if they perceived that 0:10:33.050 --> 0:10:35.840 this guy seems to be a straight dealer. Well, an 0:10:35.910 --> 0:10:39.000 actual Patriot who wants the truth, right? 0:10:39.059 --> 0:10:42.140 And as they wrote in the times, because Putin himself 0:10:42.220 --> 0:10:45.819 was an intelligence guy. Some officials said they hope that Mr. Putin, uh, 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:50.900 Former KGB intelligent officer himself would see a message from 0:10:50.940 --> 0:10:54.080 the CIA director as more urgent and credible than any 0:10:54.100 --> 0:10:57.370 other communications through normal diplomatic channels. That's pretty interesting stuff. 0:10:57.920 --> 0:11:02.690 I mean, that's like spy movie stuff right there. Plus, 0:11:02.790 --> 0:11:04.790 and were you going to get into the other purpose 0:11:04.870 --> 0:11:07.830 of his? Now, I think the Journal and others are 0:11:07.870 --> 0:11:11.690 reporting the second priority was to tell them Article 5 0:11:11.690 --> 0:11:16.240 is alive and well. And if you attack an Article 0:11:16.240 --> 0:11:20.130 5 member, even if it's little Moldova or Estonia, is 0:11:20.170 --> 0:11:22.770 Moldova part of NATO? No, they're not. 0:11:22.929 --> 0:11:25.430 But you attack Estonia, you're attacking all of us. 0:11:25.750 --> 0:11:26.670 That has not changed. 0:11:27.790 --> 0:11:30.010 Yeah, that was probably, I don't believe what you're seeing 0:11:30.150 --> 0:11:34.160 on CNN, that Trump won't. doesn't value NATO and won't 0:11:34.300 --> 0:11:35.280 uphold Article 5. 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:35.640 We will. 0:11:35.990 --> 0:11:38.130 Oh, I'm sure the spooks in Russia said, oh, we 0:11:38.150 --> 0:11:40.450 know CNN lie constantly. 0:11:40.670 --> 0:11:41.469 Who would watch that? 0:11:41.730 --> 0:11:43.380 Who watches CNN, they said. 0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:45.439 Who watches that, Borscht? 0:11:49.730 --> 0:11:53.430 The only thing I remember in terms of their words 0:11:53.510 --> 0:11:55.570 over there, because they use the Cyrillic. Is that the 0:11:55.590 --> 0:11:59.010 word alphabet? It's not the same as ours. If I 0:11:59.130 --> 0:12:01.890 saw the symbol for bathroom, I would still recognize it, 0:12:01.890 --> 0:12:03.610 because it took me a long time when I was 0:12:03.630 --> 0:12:06.630 in Russia to figure out. You know, I'm in Mexico. 0:12:06.670 --> 0:12:07.670 I know what a baños is. 0:12:07.710 --> 0:12:08.230 I can find that. 0:12:08.470 --> 0:12:11.790 But I didn't know what it was. It took me days. 0:12:12.300 --> 0:12:14.860 I'm just wandering the various rooms. Can I be in here? 0:12:15.500 --> 0:12:17.239 Urinating here, there, everywhere. Oh. 0:12:19.940 --> 0:12:23.619 Oh, boy. At some point this hour, I want to 0:12:23.660 --> 0:12:28.800 get to, I asked Claude. Oh, there's a projection out 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:32.530 about Claude's finances. Blow your mind. We'll get to that next. 0:12:32.870 --> 0:12:35.949 And then yesterday, I asked Claude, after all the conversations 0:12:35.970 --> 0:12:37.990 we've had for the last year or however long it's been, 0:12:39.070 --> 0:12:42.600 what are my character defects? What are my flaws? And 0:12:42.630 --> 0:12:44.360 what it told me is dang interesting, and I think 0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.520 you could do the same thing. So, lots on the way. 0:12:46.600 --> 0:12:54.220 Stay here. Armstrong and Getty. What? I just saw that clip. 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.240 We were just talking about how we're bored with all 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:58.040 these airplane stories that they hit us with the news 0:12:58.080 --> 0:13:00.800 all the time. I just saw the Delta flight from L.A. 0:13:00.820 --> 0:13:05.290 to Boston needs to land. The captain needs to go 0:13:05.309 --> 0:13:07.390 to the hospital. We'll have to play that later. The 0:13:07.429 --> 0:13:10.150 captain's flying the plane. I need to get to a 0:13:10.190 --> 0:13:13.110 doctor right now. That's a bad thing to happen. 0:13:13.150 --> 0:13:15.350 No kidding. Yikes. 0:13:15.370 --> 0:13:18.170 So reference this at the very end of yesterday's show 0:13:18.270 --> 0:13:19.770 and didn't really have time to squeeze it in, but 0:13:19.809 --> 0:13:21.470 I found it just super interesting. 0:13:22.110 --> 0:13:22.910 They're doing all. 0:13:22.809 --> 0:13:25.330 Sorts of amazing research into the human brain these days, 0:13:25.650 --> 0:13:29.930 and they've identified a couple of circuits in your brain 0:13:29.950 --> 0:13:34.890 that work together to judge whether an outcome is actually 0:13:34.950 --> 0:13:42.010 within your control or not. Okay. One circuit linked to, 0:13:42.130 --> 0:13:44.110 it's a long name and you'll forget it immediately, that 0:13:44.150 --> 0:13:46.710 part of the brain, builds a running sense of how 0:13:46.790 --> 0:13:52.270 controllable a situation is. Then a second circuit linking to 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:58.320 a prefrontal region with reward-related midbrain structures uses that sense 0:13:58.360 --> 0:14:01.000 of control to decide how much to learn from an outcome. 0:14:01.580 --> 0:14:04.210 In other words, they've identified the parts of your brain 0:14:04.250 --> 0:14:07.050 that are firing, doing their thing, And it was kind 0:14:07.070 --> 0:14:11.490 of an ingenious experiment involving orange dots and blue dots. 0:14:12.190 --> 0:14:16.660 But anyway, if people perceived, wait a minute, I got 0:14:16.700 --> 0:14:19.560 that wrong. I know that was right. There's something wrong 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:23.220 with this test. Their brains behaved in a different way 0:14:23.600 --> 0:14:27.160 than if they actually legitimately were getting it wrong. And 0:14:27.260 --> 0:14:30.390 they identified the whole, all right, I'm just going to 0:14:30.430 --> 0:14:30.930 let this go. 0:14:31.010 --> 0:14:33.710 It's out of my control. It's fine. I'm not going 0:14:33.730 --> 0:14:34.510 to worry about it so much. 0:14:35.190 --> 0:14:37.410 And they also got into the fact that when people 0:14:37.450 --> 0:14:39.510 were right, the part of their brain was like, yeah, 0:14:39.550 --> 0:14:40.570 you're damn right, I'm right. 0:14:40.910 --> 0:14:42.230 But then if they got the next. 0:14:42.170 --> 0:14:46.310 One wrong, it was like, this thing doesn't work right. So, 0:14:46.350 --> 0:14:48.950 you know, the success has a thousand fathers, or I 0:14:48.970 --> 0:14:51.390 don't know, it's one of those old sayings. But the whole, 0:14:52.410 --> 0:14:54.670 you know, to care about the things I can't affect, 0:14:54.730 --> 0:14:56.980 not care, and the grace to know the difference, all that. 0:14:57.510 --> 0:14:59.570 They've kind of identified the part of the brain that 0:14:59.610 --> 0:15:00.170 does that. 0:15:00.270 --> 0:15:02.710 And so I'm guessing like everything else with human beings, 0:15:02.990 --> 0:15:07.190 it works better one direction or the other for different people. 0:15:07.210 --> 0:15:11.170 Because clearly some people are better at letting things go 0:15:13.130 --> 0:15:15.470 that they have no control over than other people. 0:15:16.150 --> 0:15:16.600 Right. 0:15:17.270 --> 0:15:18.760 That's really interesting. 0:15:19.500 --> 0:15:21.280 And as we get further down this road, I hate 0:15:21.300 --> 0:15:23.100 to skip to the end in the middle, but.... 0:15:24.650 --> 0:15:29.310 If somebody has their don't-do-crimes cortex, it's like you can't 0:15:29.350 --> 0:15:30.000 even find it. 0:15:30.030 --> 0:15:32.370 It's so tiny. They're practically deformed. 0:15:33.250 --> 0:15:35.470 I mean, you still have to keep them away from society, 0:15:35.510 --> 0:15:38.070 but that would certainly change our perception of criminality. 0:15:38.090 --> 0:15:45.150 Go ahead. One of my favorite sayings on accepting the 0:15:45.190 --> 0:15:48.250 things you cannot change is the difference between a problem 0:15:48.290 --> 0:15:51.410 and a fact. A problem has a solution of some 0:15:51.460 --> 0:15:54.380 sort of. If it doesn't have a solution, there's nothing 0:15:54.420 --> 0:15:55.110 you can do about it. 0:15:55.180 --> 0:15:56.000 It's a fact. 0:15:56.340 --> 0:15:58.500 It's not a problem. Looking at it a problem is 0:15:58.540 --> 0:16:00.500 the wrong way to look at it. It's a fact. 0:16:01.260 --> 0:16:03.710 Right, right. It's so funny. 0:16:04.090 --> 0:16:08.050 During the brief and fascinating commercial break right before this segment, 0:16:08.550 --> 0:16:10.650 my wife texted me with some bad news. 0:16:11.210 --> 0:16:15.600 And not like bad, bad, but damn, really? That level 0:16:15.640 --> 0:16:19.380 of bad news. And I thought, wow, I can't do 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:20.320 anything about this. 0:16:20.340 --> 0:16:20.900 Hmm. 0:16:21.710 --> 0:16:23.510 And, you know, I came to terms with it pretty quickly. 0:16:23.530 --> 0:16:26.590 I'm still unhappy about it. But somebody else neurologically, their 0:16:26.610 --> 0:16:28.150 brain might work completely differently. 0:16:28.330 --> 0:16:30.590 The salmon you're having flown in fresh from Maine is 0:16:30.630 --> 0:16:31.430 going to be an hour late. 0:16:31.910 --> 0:16:34.900 Oh, yes, yes, yes. And I have a soiree planned. 0:16:36.500 --> 0:16:39.440 But like in golf, for instance, you see this a 0:16:39.500 --> 0:16:43.870 lot or sports in general. Some people, including me, especially 0:16:43.930 --> 0:16:47.380 as a younger man, I'm a hothead. I was a hothead. 0:16:47.460 --> 0:16:49.720 One of the few advantages of getting older that's gone 0:16:49.740 --> 0:16:50.600 away to a large extent. 0:16:50.660 --> 0:16:50.850 Low T. 0:16:51.420 --> 0:16:54.680 And people I know who are like my son, who 0:16:55.080 --> 0:16:58.810 are born as placid as a trickling stream through the mountains, say, 0:16:58.830 --> 0:17:00.990 it's not that important. 0:17:01.030 --> 0:17:02.490 Why don't you just calm down? 0:17:03.210 --> 0:17:05.889 And, you know, I think more and more life, we're 0:17:05.910 --> 0:17:07.130 going to find out, is like that. 0:17:08.280 --> 0:17:10.460 I got my best example of something I could not accept. 0:17:10.540 --> 0:17:12.500 I just could not make that turn. Maybe I'll bring 0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:15.379 that up. Claude, good Claude conversation coming up. 0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:16.460 Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:20.629 A family is furious after they ordered their daughter a 0:17:20.660 --> 0:17:25.210 Mary Poppins costume and instead received one of Kim Jong-un. 0:17:28.109 --> 0:17:31.390 In the company's defense, I understand the mix-up. Both only 0:17:31.450 --> 0:17:33.590 allow their people a spoonful of sugar. 0:17:33.609 --> 0:17:41.190 Mmm. So before we get into our use of Claude 0:17:41.260 --> 0:17:45.100 to point out our flaws, this about Anthropic, and that 0:17:45.160 --> 0:17:50.700 is the company that is behind Claude, the chatbot and AI. 0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:54.820 And Elon said Anthropic has got the best AI out 0:17:54.859 --> 0:18:01.020 there a couple of weeks ago. Had you heard this? Anthropic, 0:18:01.800 --> 0:18:05.590 which is going public. is about to tell investors that 0:18:05.609 --> 0:18:10.909 it expects to generate $ 30 trillion in revenue. That's what 0:18:10.950 --> 0:18:18.550 it expects. Anthropic expects to generate $ 30 trillion in revenue. 0:18:19.090 --> 0:18:21.210 To give you a context to that number, the Wall 0:18:21.250 --> 0:18:28.230 Street Journal points out, The 191 technology companies in the 0:18:28.450 --> 0:18:32.949 S & P 1500 brought in $ 2. 4 trillion in revenue 0:18:33.030 --> 0:18:34.650 last year added together. 0:18:35.050 --> 0:18:36.010 Good God. 0:18:36.250 --> 0:18:42.260 So almost 200 tech companies in the market last year 0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:46.160 generated $ 2. 4 trillion. Anthropic says it's going to generate $ 30 trillion. 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:53.939 If that happens, obviously... All the rules of investing and 0:18:54.060 --> 0:18:56.419 economics and everything are up in the air and you 0:18:56.460 --> 0:18:58.280 got to refigure them all out, right? 0:18:59.200 --> 0:18:59.700 Right. 0:19:00.100 --> 0:19:02.760 I mean, if you had money in that company and 0:19:04.109 --> 0:19:09.050 that happened, would you need to... I don't even know 0:19:09.090 --> 0:19:11.270 what it would do to your investment. 0:19:11.850 --> 0:19:16.409 I'm taking all of that with a shake or a salt, obviously, but. 0:19:17.010 --> 0:19:21.170 Well, it would seem if they're exaggerating by... 30 times 0:19:21.270 --> 0:19:23.149 it's still an amazing deal. 0:19:24.230 --> 0:19:25.600 Invest in my hot dog stand. 0:19:25.640 --> 0:19:28.460 We could make $ 40 billion. I mean, I don't even 0:19:28.500 --> 0:19:31.109 know how to... And the person said, oh, no, no, no. 0:19:31.440 --> 0:19:33.859 My hot dogs are so amazing. I would think, I 0:19:35.220 --> 0:19:36.879 don't know how to process this. I don't know what 0:19:36.920 --> 0:19:37.600 to say. 0:19:37.619 --> 0:19:38.660 I don't want to... Well, right. 0:19:38.760 --> 0:19:42.210 As the Free Press wrote... You've blown my mind. 0:19:42.590 --> 0:19:42.770 Right. 0:19:42.830 --> 0:19:46.909 As the Free Press wrote, hmm, okay. Well, $ 30 trillion. 0:19:46.930 --> 0:19:49.770 What kind of one-world government is Claude planning? Tune in 0:19:49.810 --> 0:19:52.800 next week for episode one of my 75-part series on 0:19:52.840 --> 0:19:56.860 the Claude-occupied government. But no kidding, what kind of power 0:19:56.880 --> 0:19:59.359 would a company that generates $ 30 trillion have? 0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:04.060 Well, if they had power because they'd made hot dogs 0:20:04.100 --> 0:20:06.680 that delicious that they sold that many of them, that 0:20:06.740 --> 0:20:09.859 would be enormous power. But if it was the power 0:20:10.000 --> 0:20:18.180 of information and computing and communication, no, it's a dystopian nightmare. 0:20:18.480 --> 0:20:21.859 Somebody's got to put the paddles to George Orwell, wake 0:20:21.900 --> 0:20:23.859 him up, and say, hey, we need you again. 0:20:24.700 --> 0:20:28.740 How about old-fashioned lobbying? They could give each congressperson a 0:20:28.920 --> 0:20:32.910 million dollars. And it wouldn't be. 0:20:32.850 --> 0:20:35.290 A drop in the bucket. No, they could give them 0:20:35.290 --> 0:20:36.389 $ 10 billion. 0:20:36.580 --> 0:20:36.780 True. 0:20:36.880 --> 0:20:37.320 Good point. 0:20:38.760 --> 0:20:39.859 Gee, many Christmas. 0:20:40.619 --> 0:20:42.060 Do you have a point to make before I move on? 0:20:42.700 --> 0:20:43.859 I don't. I have zero points. 0:20:44.180 --> 0:20:49.159 Okay. So, I wish I had more confidence in how 0:20:49.200 --> 0:20:51.500 many of you are using chatbots at all. I bring 0:20:51.540 --> 0:20:53.280 it up with some people, and they're like, oh, yeah, 0:20:53.300 --> 0:20:56.570 I've been using them forever. They're fantastic. And then I 0:20:56.609 --> 0:20:59.020 mention it to some other people, and they... Not only 0:20:59.060 --> 0:21:00.639 don't use them, but some of you have such a 0:21:00.900 --> 0:21:05.040 negative reaction to anything that is a chatbot. It just 0:21:05.140 --> 0:21:08.920 makes you angry that anybody would ask a chatbot a 0:21:08.980 --> 0:21:12.280 question and then listen to it, which I don't quite get. 0:21:12.300 --> 0:21:17.720 I mean, it doesn't have to be like therapy stuff, 0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:22.800 marriage advice stuff. If you ask Claude, like I said 0:21:22.820 --> 0:21:25.570 the other day, I'm hating how much money I'm spending 0:21:25.619 --> 0:21:27.440 on rent. Would it be a better idea to buy 0:21:27.460 --> 0:21:29.970 a house at this point It did all kinds of 0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:34.320 research instantly on California, the housing market, all kinds of 0:21:34.340 --> 0:21:36.899 different stuff, and came back to me with actually an 0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:38.679 article from the Wall Street Journal from the other day 0:21:38.700 --> 0:21:42.620 that I'd missed where they said it may not be 0:21:42.660 --> 0:21:44.859 a good idea to buy a house again in California 0:21:44.920 --> 0:21:48.860 for many, many years and explained why. But anyway, there's 0:21:48.900 --> 0:21:50.939 all kinds of stuff like that that these chatbots are 0:21:51.480 --> 0:21:54.660 brilliant at. Trust us. They're incredible. 0:21:55.400 --> 0:21:55.840
