WEBVTT - It's The Jigginess! 0:00:01.880 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:10.760 Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arm Strong 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:12.520 and Getty and he. 0:00:15.400 --> 0:00:19.880 Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:23.760 --> 0:00:26.120 Was getting a coffee at a kiosk at this conference 0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:28.640 center and I asked an American guy who is right 0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:31.120 next to me, what brought you here to Rheid And 0:00:31.200 --> 0:00:35.360 he said, money. There is so much money at this 0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:38.840 conference center that is going in both directions. You've got 0:00:39.360 --> 0:00:43.400 Saudi companies that are investing in the US, American companies 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.880 that are investing in Saudi Arabia. 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:47.160 There's just a lot more. 0:00:47.040 --> 0:00:51.159 To the US and Saudi relationship now than just Saudi 0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:56.000 rather security guarantees and oil sales. The Crown Prince wants 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:59.080 Saudi Arabia to be a major player on the world stage, 0:00:59.120 --> 0:00:59.960 and they. 0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:02.600 Are so I thought this was kind of interesting Peter 0:01:02.680 --> 0:01:05.160 Deucey's report about why Trump is in Saudi Arabia and 0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:07.800 what's going on there. All the American business people are there. 0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:11.320 There's such a level of you know, finance and investment 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.920 that most of us never get within a thousand miles 0:01:14.920 --> 0:01:17.720 of or pay attention to that goes on with the 0:01:18.080 --> 0:01:19.160 big time movers and shakers. 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:20.160 Here's a little more, Peter. 0:01:20.040 --> 0:01:22.120 Do I wonder, oh, I wonder if NBS is aware 0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:26.000 of the importance of a good, solid talk radio industry 0:01:26.400 --> 0:01:28.600 in Saudi Arabia. I'd be happy you do head that 0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.039 up for I don't know one hundred million dollars, but 0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:32.959 I'm a want to be reasonable about it. 0:01:33.880 --> 0:01:35.680 So we expect the next couple of days to look 0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:37.959 like this when it comes to investment in the US. 0:01:38.000 --> 0:01:40.920 Saudi Arabia's got the six hundred billion pledged over the 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:44.279 next four years. Cutter has two hundred to three hundred 0:01:44.319 --> 0:01:46.880 billion expected to be announced on this trip. Plus you 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:50.040 got the four hundred million dollar jumbo jet. And then 0:01:50.440 --> 0:01:52.880 when we get to the United Arab Emirates, they say 0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:56.200 one point four trillion dollars pledged to the US over 0:01:56.200 --> 0:01:57.559 the next ten years. 0:02:00.840 --> 0:02:03.160 You know, all that sounds good, but in what form? 0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:05.840 In what way? I mean, if they're just plowing money 0:02:05.880 --> 0:02:10.560 into the US stock market that's investing in American companies, Yeah, 0:02:10.600 --> 0:02:12.440 significant way, But I mean, where else are you going 0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:13.160 to have your money? 0:02:13.680 --> 0:02:16.240 Yeah? I don't quite understand any more From Peter Doocy. 0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:19.280 I have traveled the world with President Biden and been 0:02:19.360 --> 0:02:24.279 too many international conferences with him. They were all political conferences. 0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:28.320 This is not a political conference. This is a business conference, 0:02:28.360 --> 0:02:31.400 and it is key to the third pillar of the 0:02:31.440 --> 0:02:35.359 Trump platform. He's already got doze looking at savings. He's 0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:38.960 got the tariffs looking to level the playing field, and 0:02:39.000 --> 0:02:42.680 now here he's got international businessmen and the leaders of 0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:47.480 golf states promising huge checks to the United States and 0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:48.640 companies there. 0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:50.440 So this is kind of interesting. 0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:52.840 So Peter Deucy just said right there, this is a 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:55.960 business conference, not a political conference. We've got a clip 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:58.640 now to play for you, which is from just a 0:02:58.680 --> 0:03:02.119 little bit ago, trumping a long speech and got into 0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:05.000 the topic of Iran and then giving up their nuclear 0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:07.400 program and coming to the table and all that sort 0:03:07.400 --> 0:03:10.240 of stuff, which fits in with all this because Saudi 0:03:10.280 --> 0:03:14.600 Arabia wants to be intertwined with the United States and Israel, 0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.760 and same with h Qatar and u A. They don't 0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:19.040 want to be part of the whole. They want to 0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.079 they don't want to be part of the Iran thing. 0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:23.560 They want to be a counterbalance to the whole Iran thing. 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:25.280 But so here's Trump talking about Iran. 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:28.040 I want to make a deal with Iran. If I 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.320 can make a deal with Iran, I'll be very happy 0:03:30.360 --> 0:03:33.240 if we're going to make your region and the world's 0:03:33.240 --> 0:03:36.720 a safer place. But if Iran's leadership rejects this olive 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.320 branch and continues to attack their neighbors, then we will 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:46.200 have no choice but to inflict massive maximum pressure drive 0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:51.240 Iranian oil exports to zero like I did before. If 0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:56.560 you know that they were a virtually bankrupt country because 0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:59.080 of what I did, they had no money for terror, 0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:02.600 they had no money for or Hamas or Hezbollah, and 0:04:02.680 --> 0:04:05.800 take all action required to stop the regime from ever 0:04:05.920 --> 0:04:08.320 having a nuclear weapon. 0:04:08.400 --> 0:04:11.120 Iran will never have a nuclear weapon. 0:04:15.160 --> 0:04:20.159 So if you remember Saudi Arabia and Israel, we're about 0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:25.280 to normalize relationship relations between the two, like the day 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:29.719 before October seventh happened and then that all went out 0:04:29.720 --> 0:04:33.760 the window. Now is gonna be the biggest seismic shift 0:04:33.760 --> 0:04:37.760 in the Middle East in like five hundred years. That 0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:39.240 was gonna be a really really big deal, and that 0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:42.320 all fell apart. But that's I'll bet that happens before 0:04:42.360 --> 0:04:43.279 Trump's turn is over. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.240 Yeah, it fell apart, and or it was just shoved 0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:47.560 to the back of the fridge. 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.440 It's amazing that they Saudis thought not it's too hot, right, 0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.720 I know, it's amazing that they still the Jordanians, the Egyptians. Ever, 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:56.520 they still have to cater to the crazies. 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:02.640 Yeah, yeah, I think our low information voters are low 0:05:02.640 --> 0:05:06.679 information if you're like in the hinterlands of these various 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:12.160 Islamic republics where they're fundamentalists and haters of the West 0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.080 and the Jews and the rest of it, the rulers 0:05:14.120 --> 0:05:16.640 are thinking, man, we just want to do some business here. 0:05:17.320 --> 0:05:19.839 They've got to keep a lid on those people getting 0:05:19.920 --> 0:05:24.080 completely crazy. So, yeah, they've got to to pretend to 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.040 be just completely concerned with the Palestinian issues. We need 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:30.640 a two state solution. We need a solutionator. I'm very concerned, 0:05:30.720 --> 0:05:31.679 even though they never. 0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.000 Do anything or you end up assassinated or with the 0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:37.200 revolution in the streets at the least, right, right, So 0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:39.400 all they give is lip service, but they feel like 0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.120 they have to give it, you know, that whole they 0:05:41.120 --> 0:05:43.920 will never ever have a nuclear weapon is interesting because 0:05:43.960 --> 0:05:47.400 I was just reading about a handful of senators, including 0:05:47.400 --> 0:05:51.760 Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, and Katie Britt introduced a resolution 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:57.000 like hardcore against any enrichment of uranium because Trump it 0:05:57.080 --> 0:05:59.200 seemed a little squishy on that the other day. 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:04.719 Demanding a complete dismantlement and destruction of Vran's nuclear program 0:06:04.760 --> 0:06:09.880 in any agreement, and Trump seemed, you know, he didn't 0:06:09.880 --> 0:06:12.640 mention enrichment there, but that was pretty unequivocal. 0:06:13.720 --> 0:06:16.520 Yeah, I think he means it. I guarantee Israel means it. 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:20.000 They see it as not an option to let Ran 0:06:20.040 --> 0:06:20.880 get a nuclear weapons. 0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:21.320 So that's good. 0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:23.960 That's going to come to a head here today, tomorrow, 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:26.599 next week, soon, can't be too long. 0:06:27.160 --> 0:06:30.039 I know Old BB is really wondering this stuff about 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:34.040 negotiating with Iran again. Are you just making it clear 0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:36.800 you're willing to negotiate before you bomb the Bejesus out 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.159 of him or let us or are you like soft 0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:40.760 unbombing the Bejesus out of them? 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:45.240 Just on I guess this is a tangent same area 0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:45.719 of the country. 0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:48.400 So I'm still making my way through the audio book 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:53.520 Thirteen Days by Lawrence Wright about the Middle East. Piece 0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:56.320 talks when Carter was president, with begging from Israel, so 0:06:56.440 --> 0:06:59.520 dot from Egypt and Jimmy Carter putting it together, and 0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.360 it is. It's all damned interesting in a number of ways, 0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.240 partially because all the issues are exactly the same issues 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.520 as now for the most part, and have been for 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.240 forever in the Middle East. But since we got all 0:07:10.240 --> 0:07:13.240 these other negotiations going on, right, we got negotiations with Iran, 0:07:13.480 --> 0:07:16.440 we got negotiations between Hamas and Israel. We're trying to 0:07:16.440 --> 0:07:20.720 do what we're doing with Putin and Zelensky and stuff 0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:22.720 like that. You know, a lot of these high level negotiations. 0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:25.320 And I'm a big fan of Lawrence Writes writing anyway, 0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:27.840 his stuff, But he's got the day by day of 0:07:27.880 --> 0:07:30.560 these thirteen days of negotiations, and. 0:07:31.920 --> 0:07:33.200 The history. 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:40.320 Brings you like the most sanitized adult four hundred level 0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:45.400 college class version of these negotiations, But they're so much 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:51.440 more like a husband and wife fighting over something than 0:07:51.600 --> 0:07:54.200 that in reality. And the day by day and the 0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:57.680 number of times that these people that had risen to 0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:01.920 such a high level of running their and understanding politics 0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:03.880 and the dynamics of this and that and everything like that, 0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:08.360 who would get angry and cuss at somebody and want 0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:09.960 up a piece of paper and throw it in the 0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:13.680 trash or say I'm leaving or whatever. I mean, just 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:17.120 like a husband and wife in a dysfunctional marriage fighting. 0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:21.040 It's so much more that than it is ever revealed 0:08:21.080 --> 0:08:23.320 to us, and you just have to fight through that, 0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:25.240 I guess. So like the sort of thing that happened 0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:27.600 with Trump and Zelenski on the couch, that sort of 0:08:27.640 --> 0:08:32.600 thing happened daily with Carter and began and sadat behind 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:33.320 closed doors. 0:08:33.360 --> 0:08:34.400 We just didn't see that. 0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:36.679 We saw the you know, we saw the piece of 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.319 the handshake at the end with grown ups acting in 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.439 dignified ways. Now there was a lot more. You're a liar, 0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:44.640 no eur, a liar squirrel you. Oh yeah, I well, 0:08:44.720 --> 0:08:47.240 squirrel you and you know, knock stuff off the table 0:08:47.280 --> 0:08:49.480 and storm out, and you know, there's a lot more 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:51.840 of that that goes on than we ever see. 0:08:52.360 --> 0:08:55.360 That's that's funny. I'm picturing we've all seen this picture 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:59.480 or video many times of the US and the Chinese 0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:02.360 are getting together to have some big negotiation, and they're 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:06.160 at this big rectangular table and night ones on each side, 0:09:06.200 --> 0:09:08.600 and they got their little microphones and they're all like 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:13.719 smiling barely for the photo op and looking just kind 0:09:13.760 --> 0:09:16.320 of vaguely positive. And I always think as soon as 0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.400 those cameras are off, what happens? 0:09:18.520 --> 0:09:22.280 That is so so like Carter would get to bed 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.440 at four o'clock in the morning after being over at 0:09:24.480 --> 0:09:27.160 Sadat's place in his T shirt in his underwear, saying, 0:09:28.480 --> 0:09:30.440 you gotta get rid of that crazy guy that gives 0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.079 you all the advice, because Saddana had this like some 0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:37.840 sort of weird resputant like character who claimed that he 0:09:37.880 --> 0:09:40.360 could make his heart beat stop and all this different 0:09:40.400 --> 0:09:42.880 sort of stuff that would give Saddad all this advice, 0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:44.760 and Carter be like, you gotta get rid of this guy. 0:09:44.800 --> 0:09:46.400 And then Carter would go to bed. He'd climb into 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.040 bed at four in the morning next to Ozon and say, 0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.640 you know what the problem is. I think Began's a psychopath. 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:52.000 That's what the problem is. 0:09:52.160 --> 0:09:52.880 I mean, it's just it. 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:56.400 It's so not the way it's presented to us on 0:09:56.480 --> 0:09:58.760 the White House lawn when they shake hands and sign 0:09:58.800 --> 0:10:04.080 a deal. It's just it's personalities. It's exactly like you know, 0:10:04.160 --> 0:10:06.720 a fight with your boss or your brother or a 0:10:06.760 --> 0:10:09.240 guy in the golf course or whatever. He gets down 0:10:09.280 --> 0:10:16.760 to the most childish, vengeful, hurt feelings sort of stuff. 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:18.600 Wow, Wow. 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.480 Oh, I know, I find that interesting. 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:23.920 So that's what you got a piece together with, you know, 0:10:24.000 --> 0:10:26.960 Putin and Zelensky or net and Yahoo and whoever the 0:10:27.000 --> 0:10:28.720 hell he's dealing with or whatever. 0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:32.520 Yeah. Yeah, And then you've got that whole dynamic where 0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:37.560 the language of diplomacy is so incredibly careful in public 0:10:38.679 --> 0:10:42.800 and so Genteel and co. Did, but behind the scenes 0:10:42.800 --> 0:10:45.679 they're screaming at each other and starmount of room. 0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:47.880 Oh the number of times they said, I'm this is stupid. 0:10:47.920 --> 0:10:49.880 I'm not doing this anymore, and Noil said I'm leaving. 0:10:50.040 --> 0:10:54.000 Pack up your things, we're leaving. And then they the 0:10:54.240 --> 0:10:56.880 next morning they wouldn't bring it up again. And Carter think, 0:10:57.080 --> 0:10:59.000 I guess they didn't mean that, or they're pretending they 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:01.160 didn't mean that, or I'll just pretend it didn't happen. 0:11:01.200 --> 0:11:02.679 We'll see if they pretend it didn't happen. 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.360 Man, I'd pay a dollar for some sort of transcript 0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:10.360 even of the recent two days of talks between the 0:11:10.480 --> 0:11:14.040 US and Chinese sides. Oh yeah, rob those giant punitive 0:11:14.440 --> 0:11:18.480 tariffs down to much more modest levels. What happened there? 0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:24.079 Great example, we're getting the very dignified high level complicated 0:11:24.160 --> 0:11:27.679 conversation presented to us, but behind the scenes there might 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.480 have been a lot of what the hell are you doing? 0:11:29.520 --> 0:11:31.440 This is ridiculous on either side. 0:11:32.400 --> 0:11:35.000 Well, and or the way it felt to me was 0:11:35.559 --> 0:11:37.880 the Americans probably said, look, our guy felt like he 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.280 couldn't back down, and the Chinese said, yeah, our guy 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:43.040 can't back down. All right, how about we both backed 0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:46.839 down on three one, two three, and the tariffs just 0:11:46.920 --> 0:11:51.280 got lowered. I mean that given the depth of our 0:11:51.400 --> 0:11:54.800 issues and the complexity of the problems, blah blah blah. 0:11:54.840 --> 0:11:57.000 The fact that in two days they said this is nuts. 0:11:57.000 --> 0:12:00.280 Can we call this off? Let's call this off? It 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:01.400 says something. 0:12:01.640 --> 0:12:04.200 Nobody seems to give any chance to Zolensky and Putin 0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:08.920 actually meeting in Turkey. Zelensky's gonna show up. Nobody thinks 0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:10.880 Putin will show up. Is that your where you think 0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:11.360 you are on that? 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.480 Yeah, that's what I've been predicting all along. I just 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:16.760 don't in a weird way, because this was Putin's idea, 0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:20.000 rich yeah right, yeah, Well, but Zelensky in a weird 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.760 way made it his own by saying, one hundred percent on. 0:12:22.800 --> 0:12:25.120 There there, let's do this even without the cease fire. 0:12:25.200 --> 0:12:28.080 I'm there, but he made it clear yesterday. I'm not 0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:30.520 meeting with anybody but Putin because Putin's going to send 0:12:30.559 --> 0:12:34.360 Lavra or somebody. And I think Zolensky is doing the 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:36.840 right thing by saying no, no. I think it puts 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:39.800 Putin in a bad position. I think this is really 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:41.880 going to make it look like he's the obstacle. I 0:12:41.920 --> 0:12:43.240 don't know how he himself out. 0:12:43.160 --> 0:12:45.240 Of this, which he clearly is obviously. 0:12:45.400 --> 0:12:47.920 Yeah, yeah, all right, we got more on the waistay 0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:54.360 here man that MBS is pretty happy with himself. He 0:12:54.480 --> 0:12:56.960 is pretty happy with himself. But are he's like thirty 0:12:56.960 --> 0:12:59.920 five years old though pretty you don't remember? Is he 0:13:00.000 --> 0:13:03.479 youngish for a world leader? And it's richer than Criesus 0:13:03.480 --> 0:13:08.760 of old and has kingly powers right and a harrem 0:13:09.160 --> 0:13:10.480 And if you get on the wrong side of him, 0:13:10.480 --> 0:13:12.160 he'll have your bone saw it into pieces. 0:13:12.640 --> 0:13:15.880 Barbara, all right, he justed he probably has to sit 0:13:15.960 --> 0:13:19.440 himself down every night and say, hey, you gotta be humble. 0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:20.160 It's important. 0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:21.040 Can't bone. 0:13:22.200 --> 0:13:26.959 You can't bone? Sorry, Jack Ashy, come across right exactly, exactly, 0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:29.920 have a little mercy. Oh great one, I'm calling myself. 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:31.840 Oh great one, that's funny. 0:13:31.840 --> 0:13:35.280 How anyway, yeah, what a what an interesting existence that 0:13:35.360 --> 0:13:37.520 must be as a human being. So a couple of 0:13:37.559 --> 0:13:40.800 things that are completely a political and interesting I think. Oh, 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.720 coming up next segment, the Pope's brother called Nancy Pelosi 0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:49.880 a sea. Oh what that's not very post brother ish? 0:13:50.000 --> 0:13:50.240 Is it? 0:13:50.679 --> 0:13:52.040 Not a lot of Christian mercy? 0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:52.280 There? 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:54.160 Say what? 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:58.760 The Pope's brother called Nancy Pelosi a sea? Drop the 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:02.800 sea bomb on her? So stay tuned Live team coverage. 0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:12.360 Ah wow wow. So some scientists at the University of 0:14:12.360 --> 0:14:17.959 Connecticut are studying how our brain process is music and 0:14:18.120 --> 0:14:22.360 as a music freak and arguably musician, and you know, 0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:25.640 since I was a little kid just I'm fascinated by music, 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:30.760 I find this very very interesting. And then they talk 0:14:30.800 --> 0:14:34.160 about how music makes us tap our feet and feel 0:14:34.320 --> 0:14:39.960 emotions which out consciously exactly yes, the jigginess, and we 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:44.880 don't decide to do that. And interestingly, I guess neurologists thought, well, 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:47.360 the whole tap in your feet and moving was about 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:50.360 your brain predicting what comes next in a song. It's 0:14:50.480 --> 0:14:53.520 it sees the pattern, blah blah blah. Well, no, it's actual, 0:14:53.880 --> 0:14:58.000 it's about actual physical patterns forming in your neural circuits. 0:14:58.520 --> 0:15:01.600 So these university guys have discovered that our brain cells 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:06.680 physically synchronize with musical sounds, creating stable patterns that affect 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:10.640 our entire body. It's what they call neural resonance theory 0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:15.840 or NRT. We propose that people anticipate musical events not 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:19.040 through predictive neural models, but because brain body dynamics physically 0:15:19.080 --> 0:15:24.480 embody musical structure, and different people react in different ways. 0:15:26.360 --> 0:15:30.480 And obviously you'd need like years of training to understand 0:15:30.480 --> 0:15:36.840 what some of this stuff actually means. But it's a 0:15:36.840 --> 0:15:40.080 scientific approach that explains how your body, your brain processes 0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.960 music using fundamental physics principles rather than abstract prediction. Blah 0:15:43.960 --> 0:15:47.000 blah blah. That it's all very technical, but the idea 0:15:47.120 --> 0:15:50.000 is your brain is so into the music it like 0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:55.640 organizes itself and is playing along in a rhythmic way 0:15:55.680 --> 0:15:58.640 with the music the way that they can observe. First 0:15:58.640 --> 0:16:01.800 of all, have you ever known anybody without any rhythm? Yes? 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:05.160 I knew, and I've known people are completely unable to 0:16:05.160 --> 0:16:06.680 carry a tune too. 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:09.960 That I get the no rhythm. For some reason, it 0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:11.600 seems hard for any gross. But I knew one guy 0:16:11.680 --> 0:16:13.800 my first room main in college. He had zero rhythm, 0:16:13.920 --> 0:16:16.680 like he could not clap his hands to like a 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:20.600 simple song. Wow, how interesting. No, I just didn't rest 0:16:20.760 --> 0:16:22.160 with him like that. There was a beat. 0:16:22.960 --> 0:16:27.600 Yeah, yeah, huh. You know I I've known for a 0:16:27.680 --> 0:16:30.840 very long time I respond to music differently than I 0:16:30.880 --> 0:16:36.160 think like average people to. For one, I, until you know, 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:40.760 the latter part of my life, I could not ignore music. 0:16:41.640 --> 0:16:46.440 I could not not be completely distracted by it, to 0:16:46.480 --> 0:16:50.440 the point that like music during acts of love was 0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:55.120 a bad idea. Really yeah, oh yeah, I can't ignore it. 0:16:55.120 --> 0:16:56.640 It's it's it's odd. 0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:59.160 Or that was your excuse for poor performance. 0:17:00.440 --> 0:17:04.400 Please please, When I die, there's just gonna there are 0:17:04.400 --> 0:17:11.600 gonna be odes sung to my prowess. Anyway, more on 0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:16.280 this to come. We're out of time. Dang it, Armstrong 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:16.919 and Getty. 0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:19.400 I mean, I'll tell you a story. 0:17:19.440 --> 0:17:23.800 Friend of mine who's a business man, very very very 0:17:24.520 --> 0:17:26.439 top guy. Most of you would have heard of him, 0:17:26.840 --> 0:17:33.320 a highly neurotic, brilliant businessman, seriously overweight, and he takes 0:17:33.359 --> 0:17:37.960 the fat the fat shot drug and he called me 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:42.560 up and he said, uh, President, he calls me he 0:17:42.600 --> 0:17:44.480 used to call me Donald. Now he calls me president, 0:17:44.520 --> 0:17:47.080 So that's nice respect. But it's a rough guy, smart guy, 0:17:48.680 --> 0:17:50.320 very successful, very rich. 0:17:50.640 --> 0:17:52.159 I wouldn't even know how we would. 0:17:51.880 --> 0:17:54.280 Know this, but because he's got comments the president, could 0:17:54.320 --> 0:17:57.679 I ask you a question. What I'm in London and 0:17:57.720 --> 0:18:01.120 I just paid for this damn fat drug take. I said, 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:05.120 it's not working, they said, He said. 0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:07.720 I just paid eighty. 0:18:07.400 --> 0:18:11.679 Eight dollars and in New York I pay thirteen hundred dollars. 0:18:11.720 --> 0:18:13.240 What the hell is going on? 0:18:14.440 --> 0:18:14.800 He said? 0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:18.120 So I checked. Okay, So that's a part of Trump's 0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:24.480 unleashing his executive order. Yesterday, the lower pharmacy Drugs down 0:18:24.480 --> 0:18:28.479 a story about his fat neurotic friend who takes a 0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:33.639 fat shot, highly, very rich, highly neurotic, calls me president anyway, 0:18:33.720 --> 0:18:34.879 so he wants the fat drug. 0:18:35.040 --> 0:18:40.479 I said, it's not oranging. What a unique style. 0:18:41.480 --> 0:18:43.880 Yeah, And we can dig into this a little more tomorrow. 0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:47.120 Trump's drug price crack down, like his trade war, could 0:18:47.160 --> 0:18:49.879 be more bark than bite. A lot of limitations and 0:18:49.880 --> 0:18:52.320 a lot of way companies can get around the various 0:18:52.359 --> 0:18:54.200 things he's talking about. But I don't know, I don't know. 0:18:54.320 --> 0:18:56.080 I'm not in the mood to deal with that, especially 0:18:56.080 --> 0:18:59.119 with the Pope's brother dropping a sea bomb on Nancy 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:02.439 Pelosi's stage and we'll give to that. Uh So, I 0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:07.400 thought this was amusing. Interesting. They're calling it AI colonialism. 0:19:09.320 --> 0:19:13.359 AI writing suggestions, just the whole AI thing because so 0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:16.679 much of it was developed in the United States, is 0:19:16.800 --> 0:19:22.119 pushing Indian users in particularly in India, toward Western writing styles, 0:19:23.359 --> 0:19:25.680 and so much of AI is based on machine learning 0:19:25.680 --> 0:19:29.760 in the English language, particularly American sources. That it's it's 0:19:29.760 --> 0:19:33.680 said to be erasing cultural nuances and specific details about traditions, food, 0:19:33.760 --> 0:19:39.000 and festivals. It's a homogenizing effect of they call it 0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:47.280 AI colonialism again whatever, when Indians use the AI writer 0:19:47.440 --> 0:19:50.000 actually this is this is not about like being mad 0:19:50.160 --> 0:19:51.359 or a cause or anything. 0:19:51.359 --> 0:19:51.920 I don't care. 0:19:53.359 --> 0:19:56.720 I just think it's interesting linguistically. This is not intended 0:19:56.760 --> 0:19:59.520 to be a controversy. It's just interesting. For instance, when 0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:02.800 Indian used AI writing assistance, they not only adopt more 0:20:02.800 --> 0:20:06.560 westernized vocabulary choices, but also change fundamental aspects of their 0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:10.239 writing style, like using different sentence structures and descriptions that 0:20:10.280 --> 0:20:14.679 reflect Western viewpoints rather than Indian cultural perspectives. For example, 0:20:14.720 --> 0:20:18.720 when describing traditional Indian festivals. With AI assistants, users produce 0:20:18.800 --> 0:20:24.040 more generic descriptions focused on family gatherings and celebrations, rather 0:20:24.080 --> 0:20:28.840 than including specific cultural elements like religious rituals or regional variations. 0:20:31.000 --> 0:20:37.840 I suspect this still all get worked out. Let's see 0:20:40.080 --> 0:20:43.000 by comparing writing from oh, here it is, let's see. 0:20:43.000 --> 0:20:45.560 The research team conducted experiments with one hundred and eighteen 0:20:45.560 --> 0:20:50.320 participants evenly between India and the US. Participants completed culturally 0:20:50.359 --> 0:20:54.240 grounded writing tasks with topics ranging from describing favorite foods 0:20:54.240 --> 0:20:58.240 and celebrities to festivals and formal workplace emails. Half received 0:20:58.280 --> 0:21:03.080 autocomplete suggestions from gpdash four oh as they wrote. Others 0:21:03.080 --> 0:21:07.120 wrote without AI assistance. By comparing writing from all four groups, 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:11.920 researchers identified clear patterns of cultural homogenization with AI assistance, 0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:15.560 or Indian writing became significantly more similar to American writing patterns. 0:21:15.680 --> 0:21:19.280 The initial AI suggestions were consistently Western biased, the first 0:21:19.280 --> 0:21:23.159 food items suggested was always pizza or sushi, and the 0:21:23.200 --> 0:21:27.600 first suggested festival was invariably Christmas, regardless of what the 0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:29.160 users were trying to write about. 0:21:29.240 --> 0:21:30.240 Well, that's pretty funny. 0:21:30.600 --> 0:21:34.520 That is pretty funny. Yeah, so we gathered for the 0:21:34.600 --> 0:21:39.879 big festival of Christmas with pizza. I'm a Hindu. I 0:21:40.000 --> 0:21:43.800 live in Calcutta and we gathered around inn ate sushi. 0:21:45.800 --> 0:21:50.200 No Ai mind drone damn business. So anyway, that's just interesting. 0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:52.560 It'll work itself out and it'll take all of our 0:21:52.640 --> 0:22:01.800 jobs and we'll be indigened. Anyway. Chris Donaldson is a 0:22:02.160 --> 0:22:04.560 uh wait a minute, that's right, that's all right. Hang 0:22:04.600 --> 0:22:07.200 on a second. No, that's the sorry speaking of Ai, 0:22:07.320 --> 0:22:09.240 that's got laid out all funky. That's the name of 0:22:09.280 --> 0:22:14.000 the journalist. Oh my lord, what just happened? 0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:14.560
