WEBVTT - Grunting Like Beasts!

0:00:01.920 --> 0:00:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the

0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:07.810
<v Speaker 1>George Washington Broadcast Center.

0:00:07.850 --> 0:00:10.070
<v Speaker 2>Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty.

0:00:10.250 --> 0:00:17.300
<v Speaker 3>Armstrong and Getty. And now, here's Armstrong and Getty.

0:00:23.770 --> 0:00:26.739
<v Speaker 4>Tiger Woods, he changed his plea from not guilty to

0:00:26.780 --> 0:00:30.800
<v Speaker 4>pleading no contest. Regarding the DUI charge that he was facing,

0:00:30.840 --> 0:00:35.380
<v Speaker 4>the state amended that charge to willful, wanton, reckless driving.

0:00:35.420 --> 0:00:38.550
<v Speaker 4>He pleaded no contest to that. He was fined $ 1, 000,

0:00:37.770 --> 0:00:41.250
<v Speaker 4>and he will lose his license for five years. On

0:00:41.270 --> 0:00:44.130
<v Speaker 4>the other charge for refusing a urinalysis test, so the

0:00:44.150 --> 0:00:46.370
<v Speaker 4>deputies had no way of knowing what kind of medications

0:00:46.430 --> 0:00:49.570
<v Speaker 4>or drugs were in his system at the time, the

0:00:49.620 --> 0:00:53.320
<v Speaker 4>state decided on an adjudication of guilt. And he was

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:57.240
<v Speaker 4>fined $ 500 for that and also losing his license for

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:01.640
<v Speaker 4>five years. Now, those license suspensions will be served concurrently.

0:01:01.700 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>So a total of five years.

0:01:03.220 --> 0:01:05.479
<v Speaker 4>Now, the judge said to him, for the safety of

0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:08.380
<v Speaker 4>the public, if you are caught driving, you will be

0:01:08.540 --> 0:01:11.100
<v Speaker 4>immediately taken back to jail.

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think we all had the same reaction.

0:01:13.390 --> 0:01:15.050
<v Speaker 1>It was the first thing we said on the air

0:01:15.490 --> 0:01:18.830
<v Speaker 1>when the most recent time that Tiger Woods nearly killed somebody.

0:01:19.270 --> 0:01:23.569
<v Speaker 1>How does he still have a driver's license? Well, now, finally,

0:01:23.610 --> 0:01:25.250
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't for the next five years.

0:01:26.490 --> 0:01:27.150
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah.

0:01:27.190 --> 0:01:29.929
<v Speaker 2>Boy, that $ 500 fine's really going to bite home.

0:01:30.430 --> 0:01:32.580
<v Speaker 1>I was going to say, shouldn't there be some sort

0:01:32.620 --> 0:01:35.220
<v Speaker 1>of percentage of your net worth or something at a

0:01:35.300 --> 0:01:36.039
<v Speaker 1>certain point?

0:01:36.860 --> 0:01:38.940
<v Speaker 3>Well, we've talked about this through the years. Isn't there

0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:40.680
<v Speaker 3>a point to a fine? A fine has a point,

0:01:40.740 --> 0:01:42.100
<v Speaker 3>doesn't it? Isn't it a deterrent?

0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:46.670
<v Speaker 2>Right. It's a funny thing that we need to treat

0:01:46.709 --> 0:01:50.430
<v Speaker 2>everybody equally, but a $ 500 fine to me and Tiger

0:01:50.490 --> 0:01:54.330
<v Speaker 2>is a different thing. Never mind the guy who's barely

0:01:54.650 --> 0:01:58.610
<v Speaker 2>scraping by. He's living paycheck to paycheck. It's devastating.

0:01:58.690 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>When I got fined for not having a life jacket

0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>on in one foot of water on Scott Lake in

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:11.899
<v Speaker 1>Scott County, Kansas. $ 250 fine. It was over half my

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:14.899
<v Speaker 1>monthly salary. And I was paycheck to paycheck. I mean,

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:15.940
<v Speaker 1>it was devastating.

0:02:16.430 --> 0:02:16.690
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:02:17.410 --> 0:02:19.230
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it really changed my life. Like, how am

0:02:19.290 --> 0:02:20.450
<v Speaker 1>I ever going to pay this? How am I going

0:02:20.470 --> 0:02:22.780
<v Speaker 1>to make it the next several months? On the other hand,

0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Tiger Woods, I mean, to say he wouldn't notice is, well,

0:02:27.220 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>is saying too much.

0:02:29.220 --> 0:02:29.820
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:02:30.500 --> 0:02:32.980
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, thank God he at least can't drive for a while.

0:02:34.460 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't have a lot of optimism that in five

0:02:36.639 --> 0:02:40.250
<v Speaker 1>years he's going to be much different based on things

0:02:40.290 --> 0:02:41.150
<v Speaker 1>he's said recently.

0:02:41.669 --> 0:02:45.889
<v Speaker 3>Finally, they got him, though, on a WWR rap. Willful

0:02:45.990 --> 0:02:47.030
<v Speaker 3>wanton recklessness.

0:02:47.210 --> 0:02:47.330
<v Speaker 5>Hmm.

0:02:49.660 --> 0:02:53.500
<v Speaker 1>This happened yesterday. Got this from Ian Bremmer's Twitter feed.

0:02:55.260 --> 0:03:02.470
<v Speaker 1>European leaders decided to call last month's airport attack state-sponsored

0:03:02.540 --> 0:03:03.609
<v Speaker 1>terrorism by Russia.

0:03:03.630 --> 0:03:04.630
<v Speaker 3>Do you remember that story?

0:03:04.650 --> 0:03:07.169
<v Speaker 1>It was in Germany, right? Where there was a bomb

0:03:07.250 --> 0:03:12.600
<v Speaker 1>found at their big airport there? They announced it's state-sponsored terrorism.

0:03:12.639 --> 0:03:14.419
<v Speaker 1>That might not seem like a big deal, but it is.

0:03:14.500 --> 0:03:17.519
<v Speaker 1>It's the first time we've seen the European countries make

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:21.510
<v Speaker 1>that sort of charge against Russia. That will demand a response,

0:03:21.550 --> 0:03:26.250
<v Speaker 1>according to Ian. Offensive cyber and espionage are on the menu,

0:03:26.270 --> 0:03:29.710
<v Speaker 1>but it would be crazy if the Europeans didn't respond

0:03:29.750 --> 0:03:34.070
<v Speaker 1>somehow to something they've announced as state-sponsored terrorism against a

0:03:35.330 --> 0:03:35.850
<v Speaker 1>NATO country.

0:03:37.270 --> 0:03:40.030
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they use the term gray zone attacks for these.

0:03:40.250 --> 0:03:43.110
<v Speaker 2>We're not at war exactly, but wow, something blew up

0:03:43.250 --> 0:03:46.530
<v Speaker 2>or our computer system got taken down or, you know,

0:03:46.550 --> 0:03:49.710
<v Speaker 2>a dozen other things that Putin's been trying to inconvenience

0:03:49.790 --> 0:03:53.870
<v Speaker 2>the Europeans furnishing Ukraine with money and weapons. But, I mean,

0:03:53.910 --> 0:03:58.650
<v Speaker 2>if you're bombing an airport, it's pretty much regular war.

0:03:58.870 --> 0:03:59.510
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no kidding.

0:04:00.730 --> 0:04:02.190
<v Speaker 1>I don't know why this is happening all in the

0:04:02.210 --> 0:04:07.500
<v Speaker 1>last 24 hours. So New York City, biggest school district. L.A., U.S.D.,

0:04:07.640 --> 0:04:10.560
<v Speaker 1>second biggest school district, and now just in the last hour,

0:04:10.700 --> 0:04:13.060
<v Speaker 1>Chicago has announced they're going to have all kinds of

0:04:13.100 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>rules around no A.I. in their schools and you can't

0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:17.720
<v Speaker 1>have it on the computers. Why did everybody come to

0:04:17.740 --> 0:04:19.900
<v Speaker 1>that conclusion at the same time? Anyway, I think it's

0:04:19.940 --> 0:04:20.909
<v Speaker 1>probably a good idea.

0:04:20.930 --> 0:04:23.730
<v Speaker 3>Did something tip that off to cause that to happen?

0:04:24.330 --> 0:04:27.710
<v Speaker 2>Did the ultra powerful teachers union go ahead and say, yes,

0:04:27.810 --> 0:04:29.580
<v Speaker 2>you may do that. We will allow it.

0:04:29.810 --> 0:04:33.600
<v Speaker 1>Now, we did get some texts about since Google Classroom

0:04:33.770 --> 0:04:37.720
<v Speaker 1>rules public schools, which I am very unhappy about. I

0:04:37.779 --> 0:04:41.300
<v Speaker 1>had managed to not have a Gmail account or really

0:04:41.339 --> 0:04:44.200
<v Speaker 1>be involved with Google my whole life until my kids

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:46.460
<v Speaker 1>got into school. And then you have to because Google

0:04:46.480 --> 0:04:48.340
<v Speaker 1>Classroom is the only way your kid can be in school.

0:04:49.260 --> 0:04:52.650
<v Speaker 1>But Google has Gemini. We all know if you Google something,

0:04:52.710 --> 0:04:56.010
<v Speaker 1>you automatically get some... I don't know. I don't know

0:04:56.029 --> 0:04:57.500
<v Speaker 1>how you're going to keep that off the computers.

0:05:00.180 --> 0:05:02.380
<v Speaker 3>Did Google....

0:05:02.580 --> 0:05:06.119
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's what this texture was hinting. Did Google push this,

0:05:06.839 --> 0:05:12.550
<v Speaker 1>lobbying somebody, teachers' unions or whoever, and so no AI,

0:05:13.650 --> 0:05:16.510
<v Speaker 1>but Google is there already, so Google.

0:05:16.270 --> 0:05:18.070
<v Speaker 3>Will be the only AI for all the students? I

0:05:18.089 --> 0:05:18.370
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:05:19.310 --> 0:05:21.430
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't earlier this year or last year that the

0:05:21.450 --> 0:05:25.070
<v Speaker 2>big study came out that showed every hour kids spend

0:05:25.210 --> 0:05:27.750
<v Speaker 2>on screens in school as opposed to being instructed by

0:05:27.770 --> 0:05:31.609
<v Speaker 2>a human, scores drop. So they're probably on the defensive

0:05:31.650 --> 0:05:33.390
<v Speaker 2>there at Google.

0:05:33.630 --> 0:05:34.029
<v Speaker 3>Shocking.

0:05:34.450 --> 0:05:40.339
<v Speaker 1>And here's a non-important thing. In Argentina, all their soccer matches,

0:05:40.380 --> 0:05:43.840
<v Speaker 1>they call it football, all their soccer matches in Argentina

0:05:43.860 --> 0:05:48.490
<v Speaker 1>will be paused in the 10th minute for a minute-long

0:05:48.529 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>applause all season long in tribute to Messi, who announced

0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:55.660
<v Speaker 1>his retirement the other day. So every soccer match they

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:57.620
<v Speaker 1>have this season, at the 10th minute, because that was

0:05:57.660 --> 0:05:59.979
<v Speaker 1>his number, they'll stop for a full minute of people

0:06:00.020 --> 0:06:02.580
<v Speaker 1>just clapping, and then they'll go back to soccer. I've

0:06:02.620 --> 0:06:04.800
<v Speaker 1>never heard of any sort of tribute that big in

0:06:04.839 --> 0:06:05.299
<v Speaker 1>any sport.

0:06:07.210 --> 0:06:12.010
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah. South America, it's soccer. It's unimaginably important to them.

0:06:12.029 --> 0:06:15.010
<v Speaker 2>He's the greatest star ever, national hero. Still seems a

0:06:15.029 --> 0:06:16.010
<v Speaker 2>little over the top.

0:06:16.070 --> 0:06:16.270
<v Speaker 5>I mean.

0:06:17.339 --> 0:06:21.180
<v Speaker 3>How about at halftime? Quick tip of the cat.

0:06:22.620 --> 0:06:25.710
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, no kidding. Looks a little old and tired to

0:06:25.750 --> 0:06:27.550
<v Speaker 2>me in the tournament, but that's probably because he was

0:06:27.589 --> 0:06:28.150
<v Speaker 2>old and tired.

0:06:28.710 --> 0:06:33.050
<v Speaker 3>You're old and tired. True. Was that an accusation? It's

0:06:33.110 --> 0:06:33.750
<v Speaker 3>an accurate one.

0:06:33.910 --> 0:06:39.070
<v Speaker 1>I got bit by something the night before last. Briefly,

0:06:39.130 --> 0:06:41.890
<v Speaker 1>I was concerned, and I reached up, and there was

0:06:41.910 --> 0:06:44.460
<v Speaker 1>a bat burrowing its way into my mouth. Oh, that

0:06:44.480 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 1>was a different lady.

0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:47.590
<v Speaker 3>That was not me. That was some lady. I got

0:06:47.630 --> 0:06:50.670
<v Speaker 3>bit on the thumb by something. No idea what. Hurts

0:06:50.750 --> 0:06:51.729
<v Speaker 3>like crazy.

0:06:52.570 --> 0:06:55.910
<v Speaker 1>And I sent pictures to all my chatbots, and they

0:06:55.950 --> 0:06:58.450
<v Speaker 1>were really good at trying to identify it and tell

0:06:58.490 --> 0:06:59.770
<v Speaker 1>me what to do and what to watch for.

0:06:59.790 --> 0:07:02.070
<v Speaker 3>It was really handy. Was it a fisher cat?

0:07:02.350 --> 0:07:04.350
<v Speaker 1>All I did was take a picture and give it

0:07:04.370 --> 0:07:06.870
<v Speaker 1>to ChatGPT, and then it was amazing how much information

0:07:06.890 --> 0:07:08.210
<v Speaker 1>it was able to give me off of a picture.

0:07:08.890 --> 0:07:12.070
<v Speaker 1>That's a really cool advancement in technology.

0:07:12.810 --> 0:07:14.710
<v Speaker 3>Well, what's the verdict? What bit you? Do we know?

0:07:14.870 --> 0:07:15.630
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't know.

0:07:16.900 --> 0:07:19.260
<v Speaker 1>It was probably a bomb cap. It hurts way more

0:07:19.280 --> 0:07:21.880
<v Speaker 1>than you would think it would for this lump on

0:07:21.920 --> 0:07:25.460
<v Speaker 1>my thumb from some sort of bite. Possibly a spider,

0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 1>it said, but wasn't sure. The reason I have some

0:07:30.800 --> 0:07:34.920
<v Speaker 1>concern about that sort of injury is my brother came

0:07:34.960 --> 0:07:37.560
<v Speaker 1>within a day of losing his arm over that sort

0:07:37.610 --> 0:07:39.690
<v Speaker 1>of thing once. I've told that story at the time

0:07:39.770 --> 0:07:43.950
<v Speaker 1>where he had a little cut on his arm. And

0:07:43.990 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 1>then it turned into explosive pain.

0:07:45.940 --> 0:07:48.060
<v Speaker 3>He was screaming.

0:07:49.220 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 1>He was in California for a little vacation which ended

0:07:52.500 --> 0:07:54.460
<v Speaker 1>up being in the hospital uh took him to the

0:07:54.520 --> 0:07:57.080
<v Speaker 1>emergency room they admitted him immediately he was in the

0:07:57.300 --> 0:07:59.000
<v Speaker 1>he was in the hospital for like three or four

0:07:59.020 --> 0:08:02.280
<v Speaker 1>days with uh ivs and everything like that because he's

0:08:02.300 --> 0:08:04.780
<v Speaker 1>got some sort of infection from this tiny little wound

0:08:04.820 --> 0:08:06.820
<v Speaker 1>he had so that's always on my mind with these

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:09.620
<v Speaker 1>tiny wounds if they heard and they said if he

0:08:09.730 --> 0:08:12.090
<v Speaker 1>waited another i forget how many hours he'd have probably

0:08:12.130 --> 0:08:14.530
<v Speaker 1>lost his arm they'd have had to take his arm off.

0:08:15.130 --> 0:08:19.290
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that crazy stories freaking everybody out tiny wounds is

0:08:19.310 --> 0:08:20.730
<v Speaker 2>the name of my emo band by the way.

0:08:22.160 --> 0:08:23.680
<v Speaker 3>That's pretty good. Yeah, it is.

0:08:24.500 --> 0:08:25.910
<v Speaker 1>I was going to mention this the other day. I

0:08:25.900 --> 0:08:27.530
<v Speaker 1>almost sent you one to listen to. Are you into

0:08:27.610 --> 0:08:30.460
<v Speaker 1>Midwest emo? That's the latest genre I've become aware of.

0:08:31.350 --> 0:08:33.870
<v Speaker 1>My son's into Midwest emo, and it's something I can

0:08:34.410 --> 0:08:36.890
<v Speaker 1>stand to listen to. He's really into, like, this rap

0:08:36.929 --> 0:08:39.010
<v Speaker 1>that I hate. When we're driving around, I don't like

0:08:39.030 --> 0:08:41.300
<v Speaker 1>that music. But he likes Midwest emo, which is its

0:08:41.340 --> 0:08:43.400
<v Speaker 1>own particular genre, and I kind of dig it, so

0:08:43.420 --> 0:08:44.360
<v Speaker 1>I've been listening to it a lot.

0:08:45.110 --> 0:08:48.340
<v Speaker 2>Young people wearing black complaining about corn a lot.

0:08:48.559 --> 0:08:51.220
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they wear black, but it's just, you know,

0:08:51.280 --> 0:08:52.660
<v Speaker 1>the angst of being a teen.

0:08:53.160 --> 0:08:55.319
<v Speaker 3>It's like a less.

0:08:55.100 --> 0:08:57.890
<v Speaker 1>Dark emo, I think. Which, you know, would fit with

0:08:57.910 --> 0:09:04.500
<v Speaker 1>the whole Midwest vibe. Kind of a little stiffer-spined... coastal emo.

0:09:04.580 --> 0:09:06.140
<v Speaker 1>I guess that's what I would call it.

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:08.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm whiny, but I gotta go to work.

0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:11.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'll be alright. I just didn't point out that

0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:12.660
<v Speaker 1>things aren't as good as they could be. That's kind

0:09:12.679 --> 0:09:15.260
<v Speaker 1>of what it is. I could use a good wine,

0:09:15.380 --> 0:09:16.000
<v Speaker 1>bear with me.

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:17.329
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:09:17.950 --> 0:09:21.110
<v Speaker 2>So, back to the world of sports. Scandal in women's softball.

0:09:23.010 --> 0:09:28.770
<v Speaker 2>University of California, Berkeley, ex-coach quote-unquote pushed one of her

0:09:28.840 --> 0:09:31.460
<v Speaker 2>players into a sexual relationship.

0:09:33.030 --> 0:09:36.050
<v Speaker 3>Two women, imagine. And in softball.

0:09:38.670 --> 0:09:41.429
<v Speaker 2>And it's really not getting a tenth of the attention

0:09:41.480 --> 0:09:43.280
<v Speaker 2>it would be getting if it was a dude coach

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:44.559
<v Speaker 2>and a female player.

0:09:44.580 --> 0:09:48.940
<v Speaker 3>Oh, boy. I'm not laughing. I have allergies.

0:09:49.679 --> 0:09:53.929
<v Speaker 2>So, in the lawsuit, because, of course, there's a lawsuit,

0:09:53.970 --> 0:10:00.839
<v Speaker 2>the player claimed Coach Spencer, let's see, Chelsea Spencer, the coach,

0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 2>made advances on her not too long after she joined

0:10:04.780 --> 0:10:08.420
<v Speaker 2>the softball team as a pitcher in 2023. Coach would

0:10:08.440 --> 0:10:10.480
<v Speaker 2>call and text her every day about personal topics and

0:10:10.500 --> 0:10:13.089
<v Speaker 2>give compliments such as, you're so beautiful and your girlfriend

0:10:13.150 --> 0:10:16.870
<v Speaker 2>is so lucky. Set her up before you know it. Bingo, bango, bongo.

0:10:17.620 --> 0:10:19.950
<v Speaker 2>After a while, the players, like, this is not working

0:10:19.990 --> 0:10:22.110
<v Speaker 2>for me, tried to break it off, led to a

0:10:22.130 --> 0:10:25.150
<v Speaker 2>bitter argument before a game in which the coach allegedly said,

0:10:25.170 --> 0:10:29.010
<v Speaker 2>you're not pitching. And she had to leave the team

0:10:29.050 --> 0:10:32.330
<v Speaker 2>and was removed and missed her senior season of soccer.

0:10:32.370 --> 0:10:33.979
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry, of softball and is now suing.

0:10:34.200 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Those of us who are straight probably haven't fully appreciated

0:10:37.059 --> 0:10:42.440
<v Speaker 1>how much different the sports experience would have been if

0:10:42.520 --> 0:10:51.099
<v Speaker 1>you're It's constantly around super hot people of the opposite sex.

0:10:52.020 --> 0:10:53.140
<v Speaker 1>I don't know how that would work in a sport.

0:10:53.160 --> 0:10:54.320
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to come up with it because it would

0:10:54.360 --> 0:10:56.679
<v Speaker 1>be 50-50 or whatever. You're the only guy in a

0:10:56.700 --> 0:10:57.939
<v Speaker 1>team full of hot chicks.

0:10:57.700 --> 0:10:58.660
<v Speaker 3>Or whatever it would be.

0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:00.630
<v Speaker 1>But it would be the dynamic could be so much

0:11:00.750 --> 0:11:03.110
<v Speaker 1>different than, you know, every team I ever played on.

0:11:03.130 --> 0:11:03.710
<v Speaker 3>It was all dudes.

0:11:04.350 --> 0:11:09.290
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, the vast majority of elite athletes are straight.

0:11:09.330 --> 0:11:10.870
<v Speaker 3>There's nothing to compare it to, really.

0:11:10.990 --> 0:11:15.610
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but it would be distracting if in Little League

0:11:15.650 --> 0:11:18.859
<v Speaker 1>Baseball or whatever sport I was ever in, I was

0:11:18.890 --> 0:11:22.590
<v Speaker 1>surrounded by really fit, hot people I was sexually interested in.

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:27.059
<v Speaker 3>I never had to think about it at all. That's

0:11:27.100 --> 0:11:32.339
<v Speaker 3>got to be more of a hurdle than I've ever

0:11:32.460 --> 0:11:33.200
<v Speaker 3>really considered.

0:11:34.820 --> 0:11:35.260
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:11:35.620 --> 0:11:37.180
<v Speaker 3>Then you got the whole locker room thing.

0:11:37.460 --> 0:11:39.520
<v Speaker 1>So we're going to go to the locker room and

0:11:39.540 --> 0:11:43.300
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to see these, you know, hot fit women

0:11:43.540 --> 0:11:46.970
<v Speaker 1>that I'm playing sports with all the time. That's interesting.

0:11:47.550 --> 0:11:48.150
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah.

0:11:48.390 --> 0:11:50.550
<v Speaker 2>So getting back to the coach and the scandal and everything,

0:11:50.850 --> 0:11:52.910
<v Speaker 2>which of course will get no attention in the mainstream

0:11:52.929 --> 0:11:56.050
<v Speaker 2>media because, you know, directionally it's wrong. You can't criticize,

0:11:56.690 --> 0:11:59.390
<v Speaker 2>you know, one of your, your, you know, totem pole

0:11:59.410 --> 0:12:01.760
<v Speaker 2>of intersectionality groups in this case, lesbians.

0:12:02.300 --> 0:12:04.890
<v Speaker 3>But, Everybody involved is an adult.

0:12:06.590 --> 0:12:09.790
<v Speaker 2>I'm firing the coach because she took it out on

0:12:09.809 --> 0:12:12.929
<v Speaker 2>the pitcher that they were breaking up. I'm not sure

0:12:12.970 --> 0:12:18.070
<v Speaker 2>I'm firing her because they got together. If everybody's an adult,

0:12:18.130 --> 0:12:20.719
<v Speaker 2>although I know colleges have strict rules against that because

0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:22.060
<v Speaker 2>that sort of thing can easily get.

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:23.920
<v Speaker 3>Out of hand. You don't understand power dynamics.

0:12:25.179 --> 0:12:26.679
<v Speaker 2>I kind of do, but.

0:12:29.790 --> 0:12:32.110
<v Speaker 2>Well, I suppose if they have a rule against coupling

0:12:32.130 --> 0:12:33.770
<v Speaker 2>with your players, you've got to follow the rule or

0:12:33.790 --> 0:12:34.809
<v Speaker 2>you get thrown out on your ear.

0:12:36.390 --> 0:12:38.330
<v Speaker 1>That can't be a rule that you can hold to.

0:12:38.350 --> 0:12:41.890
<v Speaker 1>There's got to be a lot of don't do it openly, right?

0:12:41.910 --> 0:12:44.000
<v Speaker 1>There's got to be plenty of coupling that goes on.

0:12:44.340 --> 0:12:44.860
<v Speaker 3>Has to be.

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 2>Let me check the Bill of Rights. There is that

0:12:48.420 --> 0:12:51.600
<v Speaker 2>right to mess with somebody's genitals. No, I'm not seeing it.

0:12:51.620 --> 0:12:54.380
<v Speaker 2>There is no such right, sir. Follow the rules or

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 2>you're fired.

0:12:57.160 --> 0:13:00.300
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it would be difficult to police that, I gotta believe.

0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:04.190
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if you know anything about that. Maybe

0:13:04.210 --> 0:13:06.490
<v Speaker 1>you're a gay person who played sports. Is that a

0:13:06.550 --> 0:13:07.350
<v Speaker 1>constant thing?

0:13:07.370 --> 0:13:08.650
<v Speaker 2>Oh, that?

0:13:08.790 --> 0:13:09.550
<v Speaker 3>Okay. Yeah.

0:13:10.530 --> 0:13:13.569
<v Speaker 2>I was just thinking about the whole adults having sex

0:13:13.610 --> 0:13:14.670
<v Speaker 2>thing in college.

0:13:14.750 --> 0:13:16.340
<v Speaker 3>I don't know where I stand on that.

<v Speaker 2>Armstrong and Getty.

0:14:31.950 --> 0:14:33.950
<v Speaker 5>And, you know, we have a guy named Ken Paxton.

0:14:34.910 --> 0:14:37.610
<v Speaker 5>And some people don't like the way he dresses or

0:14:37.670 --> 0:14:40.110
<v Speaker 5>some people don't like the way he interviews or talks.

0:14:40.900 --> 0:14:42.230
<v Speaker 3>But you know the one thing about him?

0:14:42.490 --> 0:14:46.150
<v Speaker 5>He was the best attorney general in this country for

0:14:46.250 --> 0:14:51.290
<v Speaker 5>the last 10 years or more. The most effective, the

0:14:51.330 --> 0:14:53.990
<v Speaker 5>hardest working. He was the best attorney general in the

0:14:54.030 --> 0:14:59.580
<v Speaker 5>United States. And so I don't care about an interview

0:14:59.780 --> 0:15:01.700
<v Speaker 5>and I don't care about the way he dresses.

0:15:02.820 --> 0:15:04.860
<v Speaker 1>Hey, do you need to say that about the way

0:15:04.900 --> 0:15:08.730
<v Speaker 1>I dress if you're on my side? This is Trump's

0:15:08.830 --> 0:15:13.150
<v Speaker 1>choice to be the Republican nominee in Texas, who's currently

0:15:13.190 --> 0:15:18.020
<v Speaker 1>behind to the Democrat, Tallarico. Trump went on to say this.

0:15:18.580 --> 0:15:22.020
<v Speaker 5>We're going to go to Texas and work for Ken Paxton,

0:15:22.060 --> 0:15:25.460
<v Speaker 5>who's a great guy. I mean, so Ken Paxton, you

0:15:25.500 --> 0:15:27.760
<v Speaker 5>might not like the way he dresses. And I say this,

0:15:27.840 --> 0:15:29.600
<v Speaker 5>it's so insulting to him, but I might as well

0:15:29.620 --> 0:15:29.920
<v Speaker 5>say it.

0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:30.660
<v Speaker 3>Why?

0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:32.210
<v Speaker 5>You might not like the way he looks.

0:15:32.250 --> 0:15:33.330
<v Speaker 3>You might not love his look.

0:15:34.070 --> 0:15:37.710
<v Speaker 5>You might not love his television interviews. But he was

0:15:37.770 --> 0:15:40.610
<v Speaker 5>the best attorney general in the country, perhaps. He was

0:15:40.690 --> 0:15:43.510
<v Speaker 5>one of the best in the entire country. And that

0:15:43.570 --> 0:15:46.470
<v Speaker 5>speaks a lot louder than the suit he's wearing that

0:15:46.490 --> 0:15:47.500
<v Speaker 5>doesn't look so great.

0:15:49.440 --> 0:15:52.220
<v Speaker 2>I follow this stuff for a living. I'm very familiar

0:15:52.260 --> 0:15:54.420
<v Speaker 2>with this race. I've never heard anybody comment on the

0:15:54.460 --> 0:15:59.550
<v Speaker 2>guy's suit. Could you quit bringing up my suit? Well,

0:15:59.610 --> 0:16:03.170
<v Speaker 2>it saves you bringing up his impeachment by the Republican

0:16:03.210 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 2>House in the legislature in Texas.

0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:08.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm blanking on who's our old friend, used to work

0:16:08.260 --> 0:16:13.600
<v Speaker 1>for the Examiners with the Dispatch Now, political guest.

0:16:13.740 --> 0:16:15.260
<v Speaker 3>David Drucker? David Drucker.

0:16:16.010 --> 0:16:19.210
<v Speaker 1>Hey, Hanson, for some reason, you press your button and

0:16:19.250 --> 0:16:21.070
<v Speaker 1>release it so fast. This is all I get from

0:16:21.090 --> 0:16:21.990
<v Speaker 1>you in my ear.

0:16:22.290 --> 0:16:22.590
<v Speaker 7>Bah!

0:16:23.420 --> 0:16:26.920
<v Speaker 3>That's all I hear is a noise. David Drucker, yes.

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:29.280
<v Speaker 1>I saw David Drucker this morning on one of your

0:16:29.320 --> 0:16:34.060
<v Speaker 1>shows saying, Paxton is one of the most corrupt politicians

0:16:34.080 --> 0:16:40.480
<v Speaker 1>he's ever followed. Your mileage may vary. Some of you

0:16:40.520 --> 0:16:43.650
<v Speaker 1>are big fans, I guess. Anyway, Karl Rove is not

0:16:43.670 --> 0:16:46.670
<v Speaker 1>a fan. Karl Rove follows Texas politics pretty closely. He

0:16:46.710 --> 0:16:50.000
<v Speaker 1>was on Brian Kilmeade's show yesterday and said this about

0:16:50.360 --> 0:16:54.780
<v Speaker 1>Paxton's efforts at trying to be the Republican senator from Texas.

0:16:55.300 --> 0:16:58.440
<v Speaker 8>Paxton, remember, the week leading up to the 4th of July,

0:16:58.460 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 8>he was in Washington the week before the 4th of

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:04.619
<v Speaker 8>July on that weekend. No fundraiser that I can find.

0:17:04.960 --> 0:17:07.940
<v Speaker 8>And then on Tuesday, he was seen leaving for Iceland

0:17:07.960 --> 0:17:10.320
<v Speaker 8>with his latest girlfriend. And then the two of them

0:17:10.380 --> 0:17:14.080
<v Speaker 8>spent the 4th of July celebrating in London, England. Now, look,

0:17:14.140 --> 0:17:16.619
<v Speaker 8>we have London, Texas. It's out in the West Exit,

0:17:16.640 --> 0:17:18.439
<v Speaker 8>not a big town. But if he wanted to go

0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:20.760
<v Speaker 8>to London, he should have gone to London, Texas, rather

0:17:20.820 --> 0:17:24.199
<v Speaker 8>than London, England. Time is running out. If the president

0:17:24.240 --> 0:17:27.919
<v Speaker 8>wants to have Paxton win, he needs to be tossing

0:17:27.940 --> 0:17:30.640
<v Speaker 8>a lot of money Paxton's way so that ads can

0:17:30.660 --> 0:17:34.369
<v Speaker 8>be run that depict Tallarico as the far left winger

0:17:34.410 --> 0:17:37.770
<v Speaker 8>that he is. If not, Tallarico is going to run

0:17:37.810 --> 0:17:40.710
<v Speaker 8>the message of My opponent is the most corrupt politician

0:17:40.730 --> 0:17:43.970
<v Speaker 8>in Texas history, all the way to the victory line.

0:17:44.190 --> 0:17:47.970
<v Speaker 1>So Paxton, for whatever reason, is not taking campaigning nearly

0:17:48.010 --> 0:17:50.190
<v Speaker 1>as seriously as you ought to if you're in a

0:17:50.190 --> 0:17:50.870
<v Speaker 1>close race.

0:17:50.690 --> 0:17:51.760
<v Speaker 3>To be a U.S. senator.

0:17:52.410 --> 0:17:56.080
<v Speaker 2>Tallarico's raised many multiples more money than Paxton, who just

0:17:56.119 --> 0:17:57.060
<v Speaker 2>hasn't really worked at it.

0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:57.360
<v Speaker 4>I guess.

0:17:57.580 --> 0:18:01.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, other Republican senators are not throwing money Paxton away

0:18:01.980 --> 0:18:04.540
<v Speaker 1>because they don't like him. And they're like, hey, Trump,

0:18:04.560 --> 0:18:06.660
<v Speaker 1>you chose this guy. Spend your own money on this,

0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:10.350
<v Speaker 1>is what's going on behind the scenes. Well, Trump has it.

0:18:10.690 --> 0:18:12.830
<v Speaker 1>Trump has tons of money, but so far he's not

0:18:12.890 --> 0:18:14.490
<v Speaker 1>opened up the checkbook.

0:18:18.090 --> 0:18:19.250
<v Speaker 2>Armstrong and Getty.

0:18:21.250 --> 0:18:24.910
<v Speaker 1>Wow, Tucker Carlson came about as close to endorsing El-Sayed

0:18:24.990 --> 0:18:26.510
<v Speaker 1>as you could get without endorsing him.

0:18:26.530 --> 0:18:29.250
<v Speaker 3>I'll get you that quote coming up a little bit later.

0:18:29.770 --> 0:18:32.540
<v Speaker 2>Wow, Cutter must be writing him some really good checks

0:18:32.600 --> 0:18:36.280
<v Speaker 2>or something. Uh, this happened the other day on CNN

0:18:36.320 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 2>of all places, and I like it for a couple

0:18:38.540 --> 0:18:41.699
<v Speaker 2>of reasons. The content, number one, obviously, which you're about

0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:45.100
<v Speaker 2>to hear, but secondly, it is a fellow by the

0:18:45.140 --> 0:18:50.140
<v Speaker 2>name of Camille Foster, who is arguing with Jamel Hill,

0:18:51.119 --> 0:18:55.260
<v Speaker 2>leftist commentator, about capitalism and racism and that sort of thing.

0:18:55.340 --> 0:18:58.780
<v Speaker 2>I prefer the term free markets, so does everybody else, but, um...

0:18:59.420 --> 0:19:01.720
<v Speaker 2>And the dynamic I like is, you know, she's a

0:19:01.770 --> 0:19:05.570
<v Speaker 2>youngish black woman. He's a youngish black man. Because in America,

0:19:05.710 --> 0:19:07.889
<v Speaker 2>if a white fella gets on there and argues in

0:19:08.010 --> 0:19:14.190
<v Speaker 2>favor of the free markets, it's clearly racism or something, something, something. Anyway,

0:19:14.210 --> 0:19:16.120
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't look as good. So I kind of like

0:19:16.130 --> 0:19:19.380
<v Speaker 2>that that's all neutralized. And I hope you enjoy this

0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:20.320
<v Speaker 2>as much as I did.

0:19:20.380 --> 0:19:20.980
<v Speaker 3>First clip, Michael.

0:19:21.700 --> 0:19:25.160
<v Speaker 7>It's one thing to not think capitalism is what isn't

0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:28.220
<v Speaker 7>working ideally it's another thing entirely to insist that it

0:19:28.320 --> 0:19:31.340
<v Speaker 7>is oppressive that it is bound up with white supremacy

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:35.550
<v Speaker 7>i've always i've always preferred i've always preferred adam smith's

0:19:35.590 --> 0:19:39.689
<v Speaker 7>description of capitalism as the natural system of liberty the

0:19:39.790 --> 0:19:42.870
<v Speaker 7>idea that people can own property that they can exchange

0:19:42.910 --> 0:19:45.410
<v Speaker 7>it freely with one another for profit that they can

0:19:45.510 --> 0:19:48.490
<v Speaker 7>find ways to put their resources to good use those

0:19:48.570 --> 0:19:51.720
<v Speaker 7>private property and and profit in a way that is

0:19:51.840 --> 0:19:54.340
<v Speaker 7>actually beneficial to everyone else, that there can be gains

0:19:54.400 --> 0:19:58.340
<v Speaker 7>from trade that are mutually beneficial. These are foundational ideas

0:19:58.400 --> 0:20:01.960
<v Speaker 7>that have created more wealth than any other system in

0:20:02.030 --> 0:20:02.790
<v Speaker 7>human history.

0:20:05.920 --> 0:20:08.230
<v Speaker 2>We didn't have as much of her as I was hoping,

0:20:08.270 --> 0:20:10.010
<v Speaker 2>but I think it comes up in the next clip.

0:20:10.550 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 3>That is what capitalism is. That is not white supremacy.

0:20:13.140 --> 0:20:14.399
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't always work that way.

0:20:15.420 --> 0:20:20.000
<v Speaker 7>I've just described the actual, I've actually just described the

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:24.379
<v Speaker 7>basic facts of the economics. Slavery is an institution that

0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:27.479
<v Speaker 7>is older than writing. It predates capitalism. The notion that

0:20:27.590 --> 0:20:29.810
<v Speaker 7>white supremacy and all these other things are bound up

0:20:29.869 --> 0:20:33.070
<v Speaker 7>with capitalism in an intrinsic and fundamental way is so

0:20:33.150 --> 0:20:36.790
<v Speaker 7>absurd and laughable that it barely needs to be defended.

0:20:37.250 --> 0:20:38.610
<v Speaker 6>What do you mean it barely needs to be defended?

0:20:38.630 --> 0:20:40.169
<v Speaker 7>It barely needs to be defended. You actually have to

0:20:40.250 --> 0:20:42.950
<v Speaker 7>articulate what the connection is. How are these two things

0:20:42.990 --> 0:20:45.689
<v Speaker 7>the same? I'm talking about private property, the right to

0:20:45.750 --> 0:20:48.070
<v Speaker 7>exchange and sell it with whoever you like. But you're

0:20:48.090 --> 0:20:50.010
<v Speaker 7>talking about capitalism in the purest form of how it was.

0:20:49.950 --> 0:20:52.119
<v Speaker 2>Intended to work versus how it was actually working.

0:20:52.230 --> 0:20:54.460
<v Speaker 7>I'm talking about how it's working right now today. What

0:20:54.480 --> 0:20:57.140
<v Speaker 7>is the white supremacist dynamic of private property?

0:20:57.160 --> 0:20:57.700
<v Speaker 5>It's not working.

0:20:57.960 --> 0:20:58.879
<v Speaker 1>I think that's the problem.

0:21:00.820 --> 0:21:04.220
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, see, they don't have an answer. But I appreciate

0:21:04.260 --> 0:21:08.729
<v Speaker 2>him trying... Because somebody somewhere might look and say, well,

0:21:09.020 --> 0:21:10.939
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, he's a black fellow. Of course, you know,

0:21:11.500 --> 0:21:14.720
<v Speaker 2>the left would say, well, he's just embraced white supremacy.

0:21:14.820 --> 0:21:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Remember Larry Elder? Talk to your host, politician, writer. He's

0:21:18.619 --> 0:21:22.220
<v Speaker 2>the black face of white supremacy. But I appreciate Mr.

0:21:22.260 --> 0:21:23.460
<v Speaker 2>Foster trying anyway.

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:28.720
<v Speaker 1>You wouldn't think he could get into this situation where

0:21:31.350 --> 0:21:33.670
<v Speaker 1>on one side of the ledger you got capitalism, which

0:21:33.730 --> 0:21:38.040
<v Speaker 1>you can... come up with criticisms of the way it's

0:21:38.080 --> 0:21:40.380
<v Speaker 1>being implemented here and there and come up with examples

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:44.719
<v Speaker 1>but overall you've got the has lifted more people out

0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:49.480
<v Speaker 1>of poverty and than any other system by a gazillion

0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:52.060
<v Speaker 1>percent everything i mean there's so many positive things but

0:21:52.100 --> 0:21:53.619
<v Speaker 1>you can come up with the example we're on the

0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:56.650
<v Speaker 1>other side of the ledger you've got has failed every

0:21:56.710 --> 0:21:59.990
<v Speaker 1>single time and killed hundreds of millions of people right

0:22:00.790 --> 0:22:02.850
<v Speaker 1>how do you how is i don't understand how you

0:22:02.869 --> 0:22:04.590
<v Speaker 1>end up in a discussion about this but.

0:22:04.710 --> 0:22:09.070
<v Speaker 2>We still do To quote philosopher Sidney Hook, I was

0:22:09.109 --> 0:22:12.909
<v Speaker 2>guilty of judging capitalism by its operations and socialism by

0:22:12.970 --> 0:22:17.210
<v Speaker 2>its hopes and aspirations. Capitalism by its works and socialism

0:22:17.250 --> 0:22:22.140
<v Speaker 2>by its literature. You know, that's what they do. Yeah,

0:22:22.240 --> 0:22:26.820
<v Speaker 2>it's frustrating. It's almost funny to see people fall for

0:22:26.840 --> 0:22:29.359
<v Speaker 2>the same scam over and over and over again, no

0:22:29.400 --> 0:22:32.350
<v Speaker 2>matter how many times they step on the rake and

0:22:32.380 --> 0:22:33.750
<v Speaker 2>it smashes them in the face.

0:22:36.060 --> 0:22:40.780
<v Speaker 1>The DSA came out yesterday and officially endorsed that woman

0:22:40.800 --> 0:22:44.560
<v Speaker 1>that's running against Mayor Bass in Los Angeles for mayor.

0:22:45.520 --> 0:22:47.679
<v Speaker 3>Nithya, I'd like a bowl of ramen.

0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:52.070
<v Speaker 1>Ramen. She's not a DSA member, but she has her endorsement.

0:22:52.390 --> 0:22:54.330
<v Speaker 3>So that might be a good way. She might as

0:22:54.369 --> 0:22:55.889
<v Speaker 3>well be. She's a communist. That might be a good

0:22:55.930 --> 0:22:56.750
<v Speaker 3>way to split.

0:22:59.330 --> 0:23:01.900
<v Speaker 1>The hairs or whatever to stay out of trouble. Don't

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>become an official member. Then you don't have to answer

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:07.940
<v Speaker 1>for everything on their platform. But you get their endorsement.

0:23:07.960 --> 0:23:09.050
<v Speaker 3>That's what El Saeed is doing, yeah.

0:23:09.430 --> 0:23:12.310
<v Speaker 1>You get their endorsement, which is a nod to all

0:23:12.330 --> 0:23:14.649
<v Speaker 1>the voters out there. And she's actually with us, so

0:23:14.670 --> 0:23:17.850
<v Speaker 1>don't worry about her. And speaking of El Sayyad, are

0:23:17.869 --> 0:23:19.510
<v Speaker 1>you ready for El Sayyad or do you have.

0:23:19.430 --> 0:23:19.770
<v Speaker 2>More on that?

0:23:19.810 --> 0:23:20.210
<v Speaker 3>Sure, yeah.

0:23:21.330 --> 0:23:27.100
<v Speaker 1>So El Sayyad, he's an Islamofascist more than he's a socialist.

0:23:27.800 --> 0:23:31.179
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because you can't get elected being an Islamist, but

0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:33.980
<v Speaker 2>you can as a socialist. So that's what Islamists do.

0:23:34.050 --> 0:23:35.510
<v Speaker 2>They put on the garb of the socialist.

0:23:35.900 --> 0:23:39.490
<v Speaker 1>So you got Fetterman, the senator from Pennsylvania. He's a Democrat,

0:23:39.530 --> 0:23:41.530
<v Speaker 1>and he will be a one-term Democrat because he is

0:23:41.570 --> 0:23:43.869
<v Speaker 1>going to lose. When is he finally up?

0:23:43.930 --> 0:23:44.310
<v Speaker 3>Two years?

0:23:45.450 --> 0:23:49.530
<v Speaker 1>Because he's polling horribly among other Democrats, forever speaking the truth.

0:23:49.590 --> 0:23:55.220
<v Speaker 1>But he yesterday offered $ 50, 000 of his own money for

0:23:55.300 --> 0:23:57.580
<v Speaker 1>El Sayed to hold a rally with Piker on 9-11.

0:23:59.380 --> 0:24:01.000
<v Speaker 3>That's some good trolling right there.

0:24:01.359 --> 0:24:01.540
<v Speaker 5>Wow.

0:24:01.560 --> 0:24:02.600
<v Speaker 3>Oof.

0:24:06.609 --> 0:24:11.149
<v Speaker 1>Tucker Carlson, on the other hand, had some guests on,

0:24:12.270 --> 0:24:15.969
<v Speaker 1>and they were discussing El Sayed running for Senate in

0:24:15.990 --> 0:24:18.330
<v Speaker 1>Michigan against Mike Rogers, and Tucker Carlson said he would

0:24:18.369 --> 0:24:21.760
<v Speaker 1>not vote for Mike Rogers, the Republican at gunpoint, calling

0:24:21.820 --> 0:24:25.280
<v Speaker 1>him a tool of Israel, and praised El Sayed for

0:24:25.420 --> 0:24:30.219
<v Speaker 1>taking on AIPAC. Tucker agreed with his guests that El

0:24:30.240 --> 0:24:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Sayed is running an America First campaign and said they

0:24:33.260 --> 0:24:36.159
<v Speaker 1>would bet on him to win. Then Tucker said no

0:24:36.240 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 1>one should be further from a position of power than

0:24:38.300 --> 0:24:43.550
<v Speaker 1>Mike Rogers. So he didn't endorse El-Sayed, but that's pretty close.

0:24:44.310 --> 0:24:46.010
<v Speaker 3>Sure. Yeah.

0:24:46.350 --> 0:24:50.030
<v Speaker 2>And it's all about the Jews and Israel.

0:24:50.050 --> 0:24:51.770
<v Speaker 3>So you're going to vote for an Islamist.

0:24:52.270 --> 0:24:54.890
<v Speaker 1>I don't know who Tucker's audience is. He's got a big,

0:24:54.930 --> 0:24:57.780
<v Speaker 1>giant audience. I don't know who that is, I guess.

0:24:57.800 --> 0:25:00.300
<v Speaker 1>So is it Jew-hating radicals?

0:25:01.520 --> 0:25:02.220
<v Speaker 3>Republicans?

0:25:02.880 --> 0:25:05.939
<v Speaker 2>Or impressionable young men, yeah, who lean right and are

0:25:05.960 --> 0:25:14.230
<v Speaker 2>looking for truths. And instead they get Cutter-sponsored anti-Semitism from Tucker,

0:25:14.570 --> 0:25:15.590
<v Speaker 2>who's apparently.

0:25:15.230 --> 0:25:17.530
<v Speaker 3>Lost his mind. Well, that's a troubling situation. He hasn't

0:25:17.550 --> 0:25:19.890
<v Speaker 3>lost his mind, he's lost his soul. He's made lots

0:25:19.930 --> 0:25:20.170
<v Speaker 3>of money.

0:25:23.380 --> 0:25:26.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, troubling times. I don't know if you've noticed.

0:25:26.660 --> 0:25:27.240
<v Speaker 3>I'd say.

0:25:27.940 --> 0:25:30.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh, back to the whole DSA thing or not DSA.

0:25:30.700 --> 0:25:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Another guy who hasn't gotten really any national attention, Michigan

0:25:33.359 --> 0:25:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Democratic congressional candidate William Lawrence, who in the past has

0:25:39.380 --> 0:25:46.810
<v Speaker 2>called for destroying the American way of life. He resigned

0:25:46.950 --> 0:25:50.449
<v Speaker 2>from the DSA a couple of weeks ago so he

0:25:50.470 --> 0:25:53.270
<v Speaker 2>could deny that he was a member of it. He's

0:25:53.310 --> 0:25:55.230
<v Speaker 2>part of the Keep It in the Ground movement to

0:25:55.290 --> 0:26:01.390
<v Speaker 2>halt fossil fuels movement. and he says, well, he actually

0:26:01.430 --> 0:26:03.230
<v Speaker 2>talks about how you have to deceive people as to

0:26:03.250 --> 0:26:05.980
<v Speaker 2>your real views to get where you want to go.

0:26:06.060 --> 0:26:09.139
<v Speaker 2>He said that about the Green New Deal. We were

0:26:09.180 --> 0:26:10.780
<v Speaker 2>quiet for a period of time, and that was a

0:26:10.820 --> 0:26:13.480
<v Speaker 2>political choice, and it came with contradictions, but it was

0:26:13.520 --> 0:26:15.619
<v Speaker 2>clear you weren't going to hold back the reality that

0:26:15.640 --> 0:26:19.869
<v Speaker 2>we need to keep it in the ground. Let's see.

0:26:21.050 --> 0:26:25.869
<v Speaker 3>Where does he say that stuff about....

0:26:26.650 --> 0:26:31.449
<v Speaker 2>Um, he wants to, I've got the quote somewhere, but

0:26:31.470 --> 0:26:33.830
<v Speaker 2>he wants to destroy the American way of life as

0:26:33.869 --> 0:26:35.770
<v Speaker 2>it exists. So lovely fellow.

0:26:38.210 --> 0:26:40.850
<v Speaker 1>So earlier in the show, if you weren't listening, we

0:26:40.869 --> 0:26:44.530
<v Speaker 1>got onto the topic of, um, people are talking less.

0:26:44.910 --> 0:26:48.930
<v Speaker 1>Human beings are talking less. And it's dropped quite a bit.

0:26:48.970 --> 0:26:49.730
<v Speaker 1>There's been a.

0:26:50.030 --> 0:26:50.730
<v Speaker 3>What was the stat?

0:26:50.730 --> 0:26:51.230
<v Speaker 8>25?

0:26:51.230 --> 0:26:52.030
<v Speaker 3>I think 28%.

0:26:52.030 --> 0:26:56.470
<v Speaker 1>It was 20-something. 28% drop in the last 15 years

0:26:56.950 --> 0:27:02.150
<v Speaker 1>in the number of words we say per day. Driven

0:27:02.210 --> 0:27:05.560
<v Speaker 1>mostly by the young. So we got into the conversation

0:27:05.619 --> 0:27:10.260
<v Speaker 1>about Gen Z not talking much. The headline of the

0:27:10.320 --> 0:27:12.540
<v Speaker 1>article was about the Gen Z stare, which I don't

0:27:12.560 --> 0:27:16.780
<v Speaker 1>know if I'd ever... Really contemplated that. But it's just

0:27:16.820 --> 0:27:18.420
<v Speaker 1>the idea that we're talking this. So we got this

0:27:18.480 --> 0:27:20.739
<v Speaker 1>text from a Gen Zer, which I thought I would

0:27:20.760 --> 0:27:26.640
<v Speaker 1>throw into the conversation. It sounds to me a bit

0:27:26.700 --> 0:27:29.500
<v Speaker 1>like kids today don't know how to shoe a horse

0:27:29.740 --> 0:27:30.379
<v Speaker 1>from you guys.

0:27:31.780 --> 0:27:32.619
<v Speaker 3>We text more.

0:27:32.820 --> 0:27:35.000
<v Speaker 1>I haven't called a pizza place or ordered out in

0:27:35.020 --> 0:27:36.580
<v Speaker 1>a decade as I do it all online.

0:27:36.800 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 3>That's why we talk less. Well, you did.

0:27:39.680 --> 0:27:44.030
<v Speaker 1>You did credit the Internet. But yeah, that's that is

0:27:44.130 --> 0:27:46.950
<v Speaker 1>why I don't I don't know that I was confused

0:27:47.030 --> 0:27:50.770
<v Speaker 1>as to in what way people were talking less because, yeah,

0:27:50.830 --> 0:27:53.629
<v Speaker 1>people hang out alone a lot more with their phone.

0:27:53.650 --> 0:27:55.450
<v Speaker 3>And then there is the you can do so much

0:27:55.490 --> 0:27:56.369
<v Speaker 3>stuff online.

0:27:57.290 --> 0:28:01.389
<v Speaker 2>True. But friend, I guarantee my friends and I, no

0:28:01.410 --> 0:28:06.810
<v Speaker 2>matter how busily you text, exchanged five to 12 times

0:28:06.890 --> 0:28:10.450
<v Speaker 2>as many words by actually speaking to each other as

0:28:10.490 --> 0:28:10.780
<v Speaker 2>you do.

0:28:12.030 --> 0:28:14.450
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I don't think he was arguing that they speak less.

0:28:14.510 --> 0:28:16.930
<v Speaker 1>It's just that who cares? It's just like you don't

0:28:16.950 --> 0:28:18.989
<v Speaker 1>need to shoe a horse anymore. I think that was

0:28:19.010 --> 0:28:19.430
<v Speaker 1>the argument.

0:28:19.730 --> 0:28:22.610
<v Speaker 2>Well, but his arguments didn't address mine. You're interacting with

0:28:22.830 --> 0:28:27.550
<v Speaker 2>everybody much, much less than people used to for all

0:28:27.570 --> 0:28:28.250
<v Speaker 2>of human history.

0:28:28.770 --> 0:28:31.510
<v Speaker 1>Well, and the point of the article was that it

0:28:32.030 --> 0:28:36.560
<v Speaker 1>changes our brain to not talk in ways that might

0:28:36.580 --> 0:28:38.380
<v Speaker 1>not be good. I guess we'll find out, because that's

0:28:38.400 --> 0:28:39.600
<v Speaker 1>the direction we're clearly going.

0:28:40.000 --> 0:28:41.100
<v Speaker 3>If it's dropped that much in 15 years.

0:28:42.730 --> 0:28:46.470
<v Speaker 1>Where will it be 15 years from now? You say

0:28:46.540 --> 0:28:48.460
<v Speaker 1>roughly three words a day. Ouch.

0:28:50.160 --> 0:28:52.160
<v Speaker 3>Occasionally, if you stub your toe, you might still say that.

0:28:52.980 --> 0:28:53.680
<v Speaker 3>Grunt like an ape.

0:28:54.020 --> 0:28:54.260
<v Speaker 8>Yes.

0:28:54.720 --> 0:28:54.940
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:28:55.020 --> 0:28:57.720
<v Speaker 2>We're heading back to down the evolutionary ladder.

0:28:58.050 --> 0:29:01.110
<v Speaker 3>That's really interesting. I had not.

0:29:01.890 --> 0:29:06.350
<v Speaker 1>I was completely unaware of this one. I bet that

0:29:06.990 --> 0:29:08.820
<v Speaker 1>completely news. A lot of other things that, you know,

0:29:08.840 --> 0:29:11.240
<v Speaker 1>you get hit with statula, you, you were, you've observed it.

0:29:11.280 --> 0:29:12.360
<v Speaker 3>You knew it was going that direction.

0:29:12.660 --> 0:29:15.780
<v Speaker 1>I was not aware that we've dropped off and talking

0:29:15.880 --> 0:29:19.220
<v Speaker 1>that much, but it makes sense. Once I hear it,

0:29:19.460 --> 0:29:21.980
<v Speaker 1>although one thing I've got to correct in my life,

0:29:22.480 --> 0:29:25.469
<v Speaker 1>other people do it for me. Mostly I'm texting with

0:29:25.530 --> 0:29:27.530
<v Speaker 1>a dude the other day of a complex topic. And

0:29:27.550 --> 0:29:29.310
<v Speaker 1>then all of a sudden the phones ring and rings

0:29:29.350 --> 0:29:31.290
<v Speaker 1>and I pick it up and I say, yeah, good idea.

0:29:31.690 --> 0:29:32.290
<v Speaker 3>What are we doing?

0:29:34.680 --> 0:29:38.550
<v Speaker 1>Having this long conversation with our thumbs waiting for the

0:29:38.570 --> 0:29:40.840
<v Speaker 1>other one to reply let's wrap this up on the phone.

0:29:41.040 --> 0:29:42.600
<v Speaker 1>And then you end up talking about other stuff and

0:29:42.620 --> 0:29:44.340
<v Speaker 1>laughing and all kinds of different things also.

0:29:45.100 --> 0:29:45.420
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:29:45.460 --> 0:29:45.720
<v Speaker 5>Yes.

0:29:45.800 --> 0:29:47.560
<v Speaker 3>Associating with other humans. Yeah.

0:29:48.400 --> 0:29:51.920
<v Speaker 2>With all due respect to our pizza ordering friend, it's unhealthy, period.

0:29:56.420 --> 0:30:00.350
<v Speaker 1>I wonder where it will be in 15 years. If

0:30:00.390 --> 0:30:02.570
<v Speaker 1>it stays on the same trajectory. And there's no reason

0:30:02.610 --> 0:30:03.810
<v Speaker 1>to think it's not going to.

0:30:06.970 --> 0:30:09.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm not a fan. Not a fan of the

0:30:09.640 --> 0:30:10.980
<v Speaker 2>modern world. The internet.

0:30:11.660 --> 0:30:12.840
<v Speaker 3>AI. All of it.

0:30:13.260 --> 0:30:18.820
<v Speaker 2>We peaked as humanity in roughly 1999. We'll just be grunting? Yeah,

0:30:18.840 --> 0:30:24.150
<v Speaker 2>just grunting like beasts. Terrified of each other. I mean,

0:30:24.650 --> 0:30:26.870
<v Speaker 2>you talk about it going down the same road. I'm

0:30:26.910 --> 0:30:29.470
<v Speaker 2>sure that kid would say, yeah, I haven't ordered a

0:30:29.490 --> 0:30:31.200
<v Speaker 2>pizza on the phone for a long time. So it

0:30:31.700 --> 0:30:37.540
<v Speaker 2>frightens you. You're afraid of it. That's not good. It's

0:30:37.600 --> 0:30:41.580
<v Speaker 2>an utterly, it could not be an easier transaction. And

0:30:41.620 --> 0:30:45.000
<v Speaker 2>yet you fear it. So it's not the act of

0:30:45.100 --> 0:30:49.510
<v Speaker 2>texting that is my problem. It's the fear that y'all have.

0:30:49.640 --> 0:30:52.310
<v Speaker 2>It's not good for you. I worry about you. I'm

0:30:52.330 --> 0:30:54.690
<v Speaker 2>not judging you while I am a little. I worry

0:30:54.730 --> 0:30:55.070
<v Speaker 2>about you.

0:30:55.460 --> 0:30:57.100
<v Speaker 1>I don't know if this is true or not, but

0:30:57.120 --> 0:31:00.700
<v Speaker 1>then the town I live in that's full of college kids,

0:31:00.720 --> 0:31:04.890
<v Speaker 1>because it's a college town, almost all of the restaurants

0:31:04.930 --> 0:31:09.550
<v Speaker 1>have the touchscreen to order when you go up. And, like,

0:31:09.710 --> 0:31:12.110
<v Speaker 1>town next door to me, same restaurant, same chain. They

0:31:12.130 --> 0:31:15.030
<v Speaker 1>don't have the touchscreen. And my son says, it's because

0:31:15.070 --> 0:31:18.760
<v Speaker 1>all these college kids, particularly a certain kind of college girl,

0:31:19.080 --> 0:31:20.860
<v Speaker 1>they don't want to talk to the cashier person.

0:31:21.260 --> 0:31:24.440
<v Speaker 3>They want to order on the thing. I hate it.

0:31:24.720 --> 0:31:26.480
<v Speaker 1>I like it when there's a person, I'll get the

0:31:26.560 --> 0:31:30.610
<v Speaker 1>number two with fries and whatever. I'd rather do that

0:31:30.690 --> 0:31:33.450
<v Speaker 1>than punch through the screen. But he thinks the young

0:31:33.470 --> 0:31:35.370
<v Speaker 1>people prefer the punching through the screen so they don't

0:31:35.390 --> 0:31:36.610
<v Speaker 1>have to interact with a human.

0:31:37.710 --> 0:31:41.610
<v Speaker 3>If that's true, that's wild. I risk my case.

0:31:42.840 --> 0:31:45.360
<v Speaker 2>A word from our friends at Blue Collar Dollar. If

0:31:45.400 --> 0:31:47.500

0:32:40.580 --> 0:32:43.080
<v Speaker 3>We are giving away Jimothy rookie cards.

0:32:43.240 --> 0:32:45.580
<v Speaker 1>Everybody who comes through the gates, there's 20,000 of them.

0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:46.620
<v Speaker 3>This is what it'll look like.

0:32:46.940 --> 0:32:49.180
<v Speaker 6>What you do is you have to take it out

0:32:49.280 --> 0:32:51.220
<v Speaker 6>of the protective sleeve, just like when you were a kid.

0:32:51.540 --> 0:32:54.280
<v Speaker 3>Not every Jimothy card is created equally.

0:32:54.560 --> 0:32:57.950
<v Speaker 6>There are 100 silver cards.

0:32:57.770 --> 0:32:58.350
<v Speaker 3>On the right.

0:32:58.930 --> 0:33:01.670
<v Speaker 2>And what you see on the left, the one of

0:33:01.850 --> 0:33:03.270
<v Speaker 2>one gold Jimothy card.

0:33:06.500 --> 0:33:12.190
<v Speaker 1>The Seattle Mariners embracing the Jimothy craze with trading cards.

0:33:12.910 --> 0:33:15.950
<v Speaker 3>And they're not all created equally, as you heard there. Oh, yeah.

0:33:15.970 --> 0:33:19.170
<v Speaker 3>You got the silver and you got one gold. Wow, super.

0:33:19.490 --> 0:33:22.630
<v Speaker 3>So it's a picture, I assume, of Jimothy on the front.

0:33:23.550 --> 0:33:25.860
<v Speaker 3>And he has a little Mariners hat on. And then

0:33:25.890 --> 0:33:28.920
<v Speaker 3>there are stats on the back. What's on the back

0:33:28.940 --> 0:33:34.000
<v Speaker 3>of the card for Jimothy? He's squinting. Runs the 40 and, well,

0:33:34.040 --> 0:33:35.240
<v Speaker 3>pretty slow because he's deformed.

0:33:35.260 --> 0:33:42.030
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's like an animal species information about raccoons. Debut 2026,

0:33:42.030 --> 0:33:43.730
<v Speaker 1>throws all fours.

0:33:44.570 --> 0:33:44.850
<v Speaker 3>Nice.

0:33:45.670 --> 0:33:46.050
<v Speaker 5>Bats?

0:33:46.490 --> 0:33:47.510
<v Speaker 3>No, it's a raccoon.

0:33:51.220 --> 0:33:52.080
<v Speaker 2>It has no thumbs.

0:33:52.540 --> 0:33:56.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh, my God. That's a good one, Jimothy Trading Cards.

0:33:57.360 --> 0:33:57.479
<v Speaker 8>Yeah.

0:33:59.010 --> 0:34:01.790
<v Speaker 3>I've got to admit, it's funny. I love stuff like that.

0:34:02.030 --> 0:34:04.550
<v Speaker 3>We need stuff like that. We need more stuff like that.

0:34:04.650 --> 0:34:06.930
<v Speaker 2>Apparently, one of those cards sold for $ 21, 000.

0:34:06.490 --> 0:34:10.090
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, the gold card. The one the little girl got it.

0:34:12.860 --> 0:34:15.080
<v Speaker 3>Was that just somebody being nice to a little girl?

0:34:15.719 --> 0:34:16.000
<v Speaker 6>Oh, no.

0:34:16.340 --> 0:34:16.520
<v Speaker 5>No.

0:34:16.980 --> 0:34:19.160
<v Speaker 3>It's a collector's item, clearly. All right.

0:34:21.550 --> 0:34:23.770
<v Speaker 1>New museum opening up in Los Angeles. I love me

0:34:23.790 --> 0:34:28.150
<v Speaker 1>a good museum. Big museum fan. And George Lucas's museum

0:34:28.170 --> 0:34:31.509
<v Speaker 1>that he's been trying to get going forever finally opens up.

0:34:31.550 --> 0:34:36.330
<v Speaker 1>The Lucas Museum, which is focus is going to be

0:34:36.830 --> 0:34:41.109
<v Speaker 1>narrative art, which art critics are angry about because that's

0:34:41.170 --> 0:34:42.130
<v Speaker 1>not a category.

0:34:42.150 --> 0:34:43.370
<v Speaker 3>He just invented that.

0:34:44.410 --> 0:34:46.819
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, it's got all kinds of different stuff. I read

0:34:46.860 --> 0:34:50.049
<v Speaker 1>a lot about this last night. Because I do like

0:34:50.110 --> 0:34:52.169
<v Speaker 1>museums and I've been to all the L.A. museums many,

0:34:52.210 --> 0:34:53.709
<v Speaker 1>many times. And I'll go to this one. It opens

0:34:53.770 --> 0:34:55.549
<v Speaker 1>up in late September. I'm not going to go right

0:34:55.590 --> 0:34:59.190
<v Speaker 1>away because I am not going to stand in line.

0:34:59.270 --> 0:35:01.089
<v Speaker 1>So I can be somebody who says, oh, you haven't been.

0:35:01.210 --> 0:35:01.790
<v Speaker 3>It's amazing.

0:35:02.750 --> 0:35:04.450
<v Speaker 1>I'll go ahead and went to the crowd bins out

0:35:04.469 --> 0:35:06.569
<v Speaker 1>and then I'll go. But have you seen pictures of

0:35:06.590 --> 0:35:08.470
<v Speaker 1>the building? Stunning.

0:35:08.890 --> 0:35:13.320
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely. It's a billion dollar project. A billion dollars.

0:35:14.530 --> 0:35:16.530
<v Speaker 1>One of our favorite parts of this story, of course,

0:35:16.590 --> 0:35:18.420
<v Speaker 1>is that he really wanted to have it in his

0:35:18.700 --> 0:35:22.839
<v Speaker 1>hometown of the Bay Area, but they just wouldn't let

0:35:22.880 --> 0:35:23.550
<v Speaker 1>him build it.

0:35:23.640 --> 0:35:24.380
<v Speaker 3>I mean, all.

0:35:24.360 --> 0:35:27.609
<v Speaker 1>Kinds of different problems and complaints and this and that

0:35:27.690 --> 0:35:29.910
<v Speaker 1>and hang-ups and bureaucracy, and he finally said.

0:35:30.290 --> 0:35:32.930
<v Speaker 3>Fine. You don't want it? I'll take it somewhere else.

0:35:33.230 --> 0:35:35.850
<v Speaker 1>I was going to build a billion-dollar museum. It's going

0:35:35.870 --> 0:35:37.529
<v Speaker 1>to be one of the great museums in the world.

0:35:37.770 --> 0:35:39.610
<v Speaker 1>People are going to come from all over. It was

0:35:39.630 --> 0:35:41.740
<v Speaker 1>going to be beautiful. It was going to be amazing.

0:35:41.910 --> 0:35:43.030
<v Speaker 1>But I'll put it somewhere else.

0:35:43.480 --> 0:35:46.480
<v Speaker 3>Suck it. Nice. And he took it to Los Angeles.

0:35:47.140 --> 0:35:47.299
<v Speaker 5>Yep.

0:35:47.739 --> 0:35:48.980
<v Speaker 3>And it's on 11 acres.

0:35:49.080 --> 0:35:52.700
<v Speaker 1>And the views from inside it, like the cafe, which

0:35:52.739 --> 0:35:55.620
<v Speaker 1>are up top of downtown Los Angeles, are supposed to

0:35:55.640 --> 0:35:58.640
<v Speaker 1>be spectacular. So the museum itself, like the Getty is,

0:35:58.700 --> 0:36:02.140
<v Speaker 1>if you've ever been there. Just the museum itself. If

0:36:02.160 --> 0:36:04.160
<v Speaker 1>there was no art in it, it'd be worth going to.

0:36:04.780 --> 0:36:08.320
<v Speaker 1>And it looks like a spaceship because, you know, George Lucas.

0:36:08.920 --> 0:36:11.090
<v Speaker 1>And there's lots of cool space stuff in there. But

0:36:11.110 --> 0:36:15.230
<v Speaker 1>it's all kinds of different art. They're Van Goghs. They're

0:36:16.050 --> 0:36:18.669
<v Speaker 1>just your normal art. And then all kinds of pop

0:36:18.710 --> 0:36:22.230
<v Speaker 1>culture stuff. And the collection seems amazing. But I was

0:36:22.310 --> 0:36:25.930
<v Speaker 1>liking the angle of art critics. Really angry about this

0:36:26.489 --> 0:36:31.840
<v Speaker 1>made-up category of narrative art. Designed to lend false coherence

0:36:31.880 --> 0:36:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and gravitas to a wildly varied collection that mostly tracks

0:36:35.800 --> 0:36:41.420
<v Speaker 1>aspects of the birth and gestation of modern mass media imagery. Okay,

0:36:41.560 --> 0:36:42.680
<v Speaker 1>says the art critic.

0:36:43.140 --> 0:36:43.700
<v Speaker 3>A-hole.

0:36:43.780 --> 0:36:46.040
<v Speaker 1>The fact that you'll see a Van Gogh next to

0:36:46.100 --> 0:36:50.140
<v Speaker 1>the inventor of the Kewpie doll is infuriating.

0:36:50.840 --> 0:36:51.170
<v Speaker 2>Is it?

0:36:52.810 --> 0:36:54.890
<v Speaker 3>I'm infuriated. I can barely contain myself.

0:36:56.410 --> 0:36:59.900
<v Speaker 1>That there's no pecking order for the classics versus, okay,

0:37:00.120 --> 0:37:01.700
<v Speaker 1>if this is the sort of thing that makes you mad,

0:37:02.060 --> 0:37:04.200
<v Speaker 1>congratulations on your very cush life.

0:37:04.320 --> 0:37:05.830
<v Speaker 3>But I look forward to going to the museum and

0:37:05.850 --> 0:37:06.800
<v Speaker 3>I'll talk about it after I do.

0:37:07.620 --> 0:37:09.700
<v Speaker 2>I would like to ask those art critics, has there

0:37:09.719 --> 0:37:12.009
<v Speaker 2>been a moment of your life where you weren't trying

0:37:12.030 --> 0:37:15.370
<v Speaker 2>to act superior to someone or everyone?

0:37:15.390 --> 0:37:16.750
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what it feels like to not have

0:37:16.770 --> 0:37:19.230
<v Speaker 3>your panties in a wad? It's very comfortable. Oh, it's

0:37:19.370 --> 0:37:23.700
<v Speaker 3>so comfortable. You can stand. It's great. No chafing. If

0:37:23.719 --> 0:37:26.160
<v Speaker 3>you miss a segment, get the podcast Armstrong and Getty
