M Jack loves coffee, you know, 61 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: if I'm being honest with myself, because I had some 62 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: at home and then I came here. I'm not sure 63 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 2: after all the money I spent that it's better than 64 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 2: the stuff out of the machine here. 65 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm not positive. Oh no, anyway, So Gavin 66 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 1: Newsom said something about, you know, the hunger is the point. 67 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: Then I came across this, this career nutrition analyst in 68 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: one of your big papers New York Times, Washington Post, 69 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 1: I remember which one called it an intentional policy of 70 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: hunger that the president has created. How crazy is that? 71 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: This idea that, I mean, you joked about it a 72 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: few minutes ago. That right, that's the whole conservative things. 73 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 1: We want people who aren't doing very well to be hungry, 74 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: maybe starve. That's the policy. That's the whole point of 75 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 1: the shutdown. How long can we hold us out until 76 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: people are starving? How could you say that with a 77 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: straight face? 78 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: That has got to just be for eighteen to twenty 79 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 2: four year old IVY League grads or Earth college students. 80 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: What a ridiculous thing to say. 81 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean, it's like a parody of itself, and so 82 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 2: it's got to be intended for aimed at the soft headed, 83 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:56,120 Speaker 2: super enthusiastic progressive youths. 84 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: Well, you know it's in one of the major newspapers. 85 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: They found some career nutritionist who would say that sort 86 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: of crap so they could quote him that it's a 87 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: policy of hunger. So the whole trying to get away 88 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 1: from violence and politics all the time. If you've got 89 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: each side saying there will be no more elections after 90 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,680 Speaker 1: this one, or their policy is starvation, Yes, yeah, you 91 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: could get people pretty worked up. 92 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 2: With that sort of crap, A totalitarian regime that purposely 93 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 2: starves at citizens to death. Yes, I would commit acts 94 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 2: of violence against that way, Sure of. 95 00:05:28,760 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: Course you would. Yeah. The shutdown is both sides thinking 96 00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,960 Speaker 1: there's good. Every time there's a shutdown, it's both sides 97 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 1: thinking they're going to get some sort of political leverage 98 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: out of this, and then they're often wrong. It's just 99 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: how this looks and how it makes people feel. This 100 00:05:44,560 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: is rarely a policy, certainly not a policy of hunger. 101 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: It's an intentional policy of hunger. 102 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 2: Can you believe we get together at our secret meetings 103 00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 2: with Count Dracula and the Texas shooter guy in the Simpsons? 104 00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: Who else was always in those meetings? 105 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 2: Bob milter Burn obviously, Oh and Bob dole inexplicably and 106 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: and oh Krusty clown or right Homer, right, yeah. 107 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 1: But Gavin Newsom actually said that the hunger is the point. Okay, 108 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,279 Speaker 1: So I guess that's still where we are with our politics. 109 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:21,799 Speaker 2: He ay Gavy, just private between you and me, because 110 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: I know you think I'm an a whole I'm not. Actually, 111 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:27,800 Speaker 2: I just think you're a terrible, terrible governor, and I 112 00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:32,480 Speaker 2: say so with glee on a daily basis. Uh, it's 113 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 2: got to be kind of a drag to have to 114 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,320 Speaker 2: court people so stupid that they would fall for that. 115 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 2: To your side, I mean, because I know you're not 116 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 2: a stupid guy at all, So it's got to just 117 00:06:42,640 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: be kind of I don't know, you're slumming it, throwing 118 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: stuff out there. 119 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:49,920 Speaker 1: That's that stupid, But that's the business you're in. We'll 120 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: have to talk about later. Because overnight Israel pounded the 121 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: crap out of Gaza, the whole bunch of bomb and 122 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: then that sort of thing. Where do you think the 123 00:06:58,120 --> 00:06:59,279 Speaker 1: ceasefire is currently? 124 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 2: Oh, they it's back on. They bombed the crap out 125 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 2: of them and then said, all right, cease fires back on. 126 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: Well do you think it'll. 127 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 2: Do? 128 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: You think it'll hold or no? I think the same thing. 129 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 2: I've always thought, unfortunately, that Hamas has zero interest in peace, 130 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:17,960 Speaker 2: and I'm really beginning to believe that the Arab States 131 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 2: are not willing to bring the pressure to bear it 132 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: would take to get the dead enders to give up fighting. 133 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 2: So Israel's back to it's only alternative, which is just 134 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,920 Speaker 2: decimate Hamas to whatever extent is possible so they get 135 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 2: whatever costs Hamas. 136 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 1: Somebody with Hamas killed an IDF soldier on Tuesday. That's 137 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,480 Speaker 1: what Israel was responding to. They're also angry about one 138 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:44,200 Speaker 1: of the hostages remains that were returned having been murdered 139 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:50,640 Speaker 1: and or tortured to death. They have videostarved, actual starvage 140 00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 1: they have video of and I don't know what they 141 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 1: were up to here. Hamas had taken the body to 142 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 1: a location, dug a hole, put the body in the hole, 143 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,679 Speaker 1: then call the Red Cross and said, hey, we found 144 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 1: a body. What was that all about, boy, I don't know. 145 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: I don't know. 146 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 2: But they also one of them they were trying to 147 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,760 Speaker 2: turned over. They had already turned over another part of them. 148 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: But they're trying to cover it up for some reason 149 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: or maybe that maybe that's what it was. Maybe it 150 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: was trying to make it seem like two bodies, so 151 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 1: it was two locations. Maybe that's what was going on there. 152 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: But Israel was very upset about that for obvious reasons 153 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 1: because you're not, you know, honoring your indo the deal 154 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: if you're doing that sort of thing. 155 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 2: No, Hamas, for their part, was just buying enough time 156 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:36,440 Speaker 2: to somehow reconstitute their forces. They're being just obliterated, and 157 00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: so said, we got to agree to anything to buy 158 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 2: buy ourselves some time, including returning hostages, and that's what 159 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: they did. We need to get to probably the world's 160 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,040 Speaker 2: lead story, which will be in our opening clip by 161 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 2: starting the show officially. 162 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 1: I'm Jack Armstrong.

That was 340 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:13,440 Speaker 1: in what twenty eighteen, And that was before the pitch clock, 341 00:18:13,520 --> 00:18:16,879 Speaker 1: and it lasted like an hour and a half longer, right, 342 00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 1: So that makes a huge difference having the pitchclock in there. 343 00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 1: Toronto won last night. By the way, I'm continuing to 344 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: wear of my Dodgers hat because I think it's giving 345 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: Toronto luck. I'm rooting for the Blue Jays. I can't 346 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: believe how many people I've run and ran into yesterday 347 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: bleary eyed talking about having stayed up and watched that game. 348 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: So you're and this has been our trademark through the years, 349 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: angering everyone yes by wearing a Dodgers hat, annoying non 350 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: Dodgers fans and then rooting against the Dodgers, which has 351 00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: got to be profoundly annoying to Dodgers fans as you 352 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,000 Speaker 1: were there. I like that plucky Blue Jays team. I 353 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: think they're awesome. Many Who series is tied and it 354 00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: will be going back to Canada, which my son is 355 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: very angry about. Canada can't win our World series makes 356 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: it very angry, which I understand completely. Yes, So we 357 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 1: mentioned yesterday the Amazon announcing fire and a whole bunch 358 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: of people, and then later in the day there was 359 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: stuff came out about Target and then this ups story 360 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 1: where they're getting what a forty eight thousand something like that, 361 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: just a huge number of layoffs that they're gonna have 362 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:15,560 Speaker 1: come across a number of stories. And then I've got 363 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: a personal anecdote that fits in with this. So a 364 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 1: couple of different articles I've read in reaction to this 365 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 1: where experts economists are like huddling together, gathering trying to 366 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 1: figure out what exactly is happening this week, what is 367 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,919 Speaker 1: going on? There's not a clear cut, simple explanation for 368 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 1: why this has happened all the time, all of a sudden, 369 00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 1: for most of twenty twenty five, the job market was 370 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,719 Speaker 1: described by an economist as a no hire, no fire 371 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,359 Speaker 1: job market, and they expected it to last for a while, 372 00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: a stretch of time where you probably couldn't find a 373 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:50,879 Speaker 1: job if you're looking for one, but if you got one, 374 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: you're probably gonna be able to hang on to it. 375 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:55,000 Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, that fragile balance has 376 00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:59,479 Speaker 1: been shifting, and they're not consensus as to why, at 377 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 1: least a to the MarketWatch article that I'm looking at 378 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,240 Speaker 1: right here, and they're kind of in a h They 379 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: weren't expecting this to happen over the last seventy two hours, 380 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 1: these announcements to be made, and so they're trying to 381 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: figure out exactly what is going on that combined with this. 382 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 1: Anidote anecdote not an antidote. An antidote is what you 383 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,399 Speaker 1: need if those diseased monkeys get a hold of you. 384 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,000 Speaker 1: Any need that quick? Yes. An anecdote is a singular 385 00:20:25,040 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 1: story that may or may not represent a larger theme, 386 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: such as this somebody who works in a variety. It's 387 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:35,680 Speaker 1: a complicated I'm not sure I quite understand, but it's 388 00:20:35,680 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: a retirement planning sort of thing where you got your 389 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: full one K and you're deciding how to use it, 390 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: or some people taking money out of the four kay anyway, 391 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 1: person texted me and said, people are panicked right now 392 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 1: that their job is really stressful because there's so many 393 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 1: people that are like really in a panic looking to 394 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 1: dip into their four oh one K because they're coming 395 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: up short in a variety of places. Oh and looking 396 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 1: at again and they're having to try to talk them 397 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: into talk them out of the idea of doing that, 398 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:05,840 Speaker 1: but they're stuck they come up short. Then you combine 399 00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 1: that with that story that Katie had in her headlines 400 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:11,200 Speaker 1: just a few minutes ago. And I don't know where 401 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: this fits in historically, but right now, about half of 402 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: the average American paycheck is spent within forty eight hours 403 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 1: of payday, with over a third gone in twelve hours. Millennials, 404 00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 1: not surprisingly, they're spending the fastest, burning through forty percent 405 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,840 Speaker 1: of their earnings within the first twelve hours, which is 406 00:21:30,840 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: more than any of the other generations. That's not surprising 407 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 1: that the younger end is doing that, But that sounds 408 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 1: like catching up on bills to me. Of course, it is, yeah, absolutely, 409 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: it is. It's like I gotta spend I gotta make 410 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: my car payment, my rent, my credit card, whoever you 411 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: owe money, I got to pay them like right now 412 00:21:48,160 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 1: because I'm behind and penalties are adding up and whatever 413 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 1: else the situation is. And then we had that stat 414 00:21:54,400 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 1: not that many weeks ago where the number of people 415 00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,720 Speaker 1: sixty or ninety days behind on their car payment was 416 00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,240 Speaker 1: a high. It's ever been all of those things together, 417 00:22:04,440 --> 00:22:07,199 Speaker 1: you know, trying not to be the radio show you 418 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,320 Speaker 1: tune into to make you feel scared and miserable every 419 00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:12,600 Speaker 1: single day. But I got a bad feeling. I mean, well, 420 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 1: first of all, my life experience is when the stock 421 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:18,399 Speaker 1: market setting a record every single day, buckle up, something 422 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 1: is about to happen. 423 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:24,119 Speaker 2: Well, especially when everybody is admitting, yeah, it's really just 424 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,040 Speaker 2: AI companies driving the rise in the stock market. Everything 425 00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: else is kind of stagnant, including consumer spending. I mean, 426 00:22:31,800 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 2: that's just it's so obvious what's going on here. I 427 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:40,520 Speaker 2: read a big analysis or try to very in depth 428 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:47,920 Speaker 2: analysis of the AI boom, bubble or boom, and nobody's sure. 429 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: A couple of economies there are. There are two economies. 430 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,680 Speaker 2: There's the tech economy right now and the rest of us, 431 00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,120 Speaker 2: and the tech economy is surging the rest of us 432 00:22:58,119 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 2: not so much. 433 00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 1: Reading from CBS News quoting a couple of different financial publications, 434 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,000 Speaker 1: the announcements from Amazon and ups and Target could be 435 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: signaling that the Fed has good reason to be worried 436 00:23:13,240 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 1: about the job situation across the country. No question, this 437 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 1: is a shift. No hire, no fire is a thing 438 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:22,239 Speaker 1: of the past. I like the way things come and 439 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: go so fast. You know, a week ago, you get 440 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,160 Speaker 1: no it's a no hire, no fire economy, and then 441 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 1: a week later it's a thing of the past. All right. 442 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: I hadn't even heard the term. And it's over right, 443 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: I know, I didn't even get to enjoy saying it, 444 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,320 Speaker 1: and it's over These are major layoffs, the kind of 445 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: which we only see in periods of real change in 446 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: the economy. Okay, again, maybe buckle up. Maybe I don't. 447 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,440 Speaker 1: That's that about half of people spend half their paycheck 448 00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: within forty eight hours. Broh, I know it's always that way. 449 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 1: I don't. It didn't get into comparing. 450 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: It to the past, Yeah, which kind of takes the 451 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 2: fun out of exactly. So my question about your last 452 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,160 Speaker 2: sentence A couple of sentences ago. You only see these 453 00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,760 Speaker 2: sorts of layoffs and periods of great change. Is this 454 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 2: just another period of great change the sort of which 455 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 2: we're kind of used to, or is this mostly AI 456 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 2: driven change. 457 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 1: I don't know the UPS. It's a whole bunch of 458 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: drivers and people like I used to do for UPS 459 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 1: stacking boxes as many tens of thousands of the forty 460 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,640 Speaker 1: eight thousands. But that doesn't mean it's not AI related. 461 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're getting hit by something AI, you 462 00:24:32,119 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: might have to cut costs everywhere, right. 463 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,440 Speaker 2: Yeah. The article in the journal why UPS is increasingly 464 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:42,400 Speaker 2: turning to gig drivers for deliveries. The company has cut 465 00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 2: thousands of drivers as it tries to improve profitability. Instead 466 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 2: of the iconic brown trucks, UPS has been funneling smaller, 467 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,200 Speaker 2: lower value parcels to gig drivers who use their personal 468 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,199 Speaker 2: vehicles to make deliveries, part of a push by the 469 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 2: company to reduce expenses that's involved, excuse me, buyouts and 470 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 2: layoffs thirty four thousand drivers and warehouse workers. 471 00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 1: As you mentioned, the only possible advantage of getting older, 472 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 1: and I'm telling you you gotta search to try to 473 00:25:11,520 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: find any upside to getting older, is you have been 474 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: through a number of things before, and I remember the 475 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,119 Speaker 1: big crash two thousand and five was the housing market crash, 476 00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,639 Speaker 1: and then two thousand and eight the whole bailout crash. 477 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: But I remember a guy we worked with, a very 478 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: successful guy, owned a big business, and he said, I 479 00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 1: got a whole bunch of employees buying houses. I know 480 00:25:33,040 --> 00:25:35,960 Speaker 1: what they make. They shouldn't be able to buy a house. 481 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 1: Something's going on here. I just my point being that 482 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 1: these little anecdotal things you come across in your life 483 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:48,120 Speaker 1: can be pretty good indicators ahead of the giant front 484 00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:51,040 Speaker 1: page Wall Street Journal alerts you to it story. Like 485 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: this person I know who works in four to one 486 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 1: cases said, people are panicked, and it's an unusual situation 487 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: where people are all of a sudden and like I 488 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:02,399 Speaker 1: need to dip into my four to one K to 489 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:04,679 Speaker 1: make payments. That means something. 490 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 2: Oh that's exactly the same sort of beast as our 491 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 2: old friend, the business owner saying that, Yeah, I remember 492 00:26:12,400 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 2: that these people are buying big houses and I know 493 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 2: what they make. There's something odd happening. Yeah, yeah there is. 494 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 2: We won't relitigate that, but yeah, there is quick court 495 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 2: from our friends that simply save home security. You have 496 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,439 Speaker 2: stuff you want to protect it. I certainly your loved 497 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 2: ones and the castle that is your home.

It doesn't 499 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 2: just wait till somebody's already broken in like old systems. 500 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 2: It stops the crime before it starts with combination of 501 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 2: AI security cameras that identify the threat and simply Safe 502 00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 2: professional monitoring agents. 503 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: Simply Safe is the home security I use to keep 504 00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 1: my home safe, my family safe, just like other four 505 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,160 Speaker 1: million other Americans. And you should try it out. Sixty 506 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: day money back guarantee, no long term contracts. There's no 507 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,800 Speaker 1: reason why you shouldn't try it simply and the simply 508 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: say means simple to set up, simple to. 509 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 2: Use, and unlike other symptoms systems, rather simply Safe doesn't 510 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 2: need you to see an alert and confront the intruder yourself, 511 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 2: or wait for the cops who think it's a false alarm. 512 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:13,879 Speaker 2: With their twenty four to seven monitoring agent. It's like 513 00:27:13,920 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: having a security guard stationed right outside your home. It's 514 00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 2: really amazing technology. Right now, you good folks can save 515 00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:23,439 Speaker 2: fifty percent on simply Safe home security systems at simply 516 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 2: safe dot com slash armstrong.

There's no safe like 518 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 2: simply safe. 519 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:34,480 Speaker 1: I have long said that the worst reporting that exists 520 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 1: is economic reporting, and if you dig into it much, 521 00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,919 Speaker 1: it's they love to run with headlines and then you 522 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 1: get into the details and it's like one guy said, maybe. 523 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 1: And I remember a friend of mine who is getting 524 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: his graduate degree in economics, and I just asked him 525 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: something about it and he said, yeah, tell me something. 526 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 1: He said, it's all theory, and it's always stuck in 527 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: my head because it is. It's all theory, and often 528 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: backward looking theory. Something happens nobody predicted, and then they 529 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,240 Speaker 1: come up with a theory for why it happened, but 530 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 1: not for predicting the next big thing. Yeah. 531 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 2: I remember being so frustrated as I almost had a 532 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 2: double major in economics in college, but it was the 533 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,640 Speaker 2: equivalent of a minor where I went and class after 534 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 2: class I would take and think, I'm not going to 535 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 2: remember a lick of this, and even if I did, 536 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 2: it's useless. What are we doing here? The dismal science, 537 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:30,080 Speaker 2: as they say, you still got the whole supply and demand. 538 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,719 Speaker 2: Oh that that part quite useful, Yes, that is very 539 00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 2: has and why rent control is utterly idiotic and price 540 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 2: controls always have been, always will be. Yeah, that sort 541 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 2: of thing, although you know every generation needs to relearn 542 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: that one. 543 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, Mark Mark Kalpernois does the jokes. There's only two 544 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: economists that understand the global economy, and unfortunately they disagree, right, 545 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: is very true. 546 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 2: One more interesting note from the UPS story. I did 547 00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: not know this UPS. This is a logistics expert on 548 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 2: former UPS executive ups Achilles Heel is lightweight residential packages 549 00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 2: that don't offset the labor expense because everything's priced by 550 00:29:14,160 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 2: weight and size and everything. So that's interesting. Well, that's 551 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,880 Speaker 2: what they're farming out to these gig workers. 552 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:25,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, they're not keeping up with Amazon and FedEx Amazon, 553 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: which you know, the gigworker thing. Amazon has had to 554 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,479 Speaker 1: have a huge effect on shipping with their model of 555 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:34,880 Speaker 1: We're going to hire sketchy people in crappy cars to 556 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 1: drive into your neighborhood, dig through their trunk and find 557 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,320 Speaker 1: a box and put it on your porch. That's not 558 00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 1: always my experience, but. 559 00:29:43,400 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: Sometimes it is, as you you know, dead vault your 560 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 2: door as you see them approach in your house. 561 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: Oh oh, they're an Amazon driver. Oh okay by the 562 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 1: final final, final note. 563 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:57,760 Speaker 2: The push to lower labor costs at UPS not going 564 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 2: down well with the International Brotherhood of Omamsters, who represents 565 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 2: three quarters the UPS is four hundred thousand employees in 566 00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:06,360 Speaker 2: the US. 567 00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 1: The buyouts. 568 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 2: According to union guys, the buyouts were aimed at replacing 569 00:30:10,760 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 2: older and higher paid drivers who make forty five bucks 570 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 2: an hour with younger drivers who make twenty three dollars 571 00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 2: an hour. It's Hamster's General President Sean O'Brien, the combative. 572 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:24,200 Speaker 2: Sean O'Brien said, UPS is trying to weasel its way 573 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: out of creating good union jobs here in America and 574 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 2: particularly that's in particularly. That's one way to look at it, Sean. 575 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 2: The other way is now your bloated freaking contracts are unsustainable. 576 00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, or the competition came along and somehow they're doing 577 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: it cheaper, so you can't pay people forty five dollars 578 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: an hour anymore. Those days are over, which happens in 579 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 1: in Free particularly. I used to lift boxes for UPS. 580 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: It has a good paying job. The benefits were amazing, 581 00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: absolutely amazing, best benefits I ever had, one hundred percent 582 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: no deductible on all my medical It's too bad. I 583 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: was young and healthy. I should have gotten all my 584 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: teeth polled or a new pancreas or something or both both. 585 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 1: Get the teeth and pancrease combo package mail bag on 586 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: the way, and a bunch of other stuff. Stay here. 587 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 1: We're very pro free market around here. For some reason, 588 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,280 Speaker 1: the kind of downer economic news we're just talking about 589 00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 1: drove me to the Reddit anti work site that I 590 00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:27,479 Speaker 1: like to check in on regularly, with the numb nuts 591 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:29,960 Speaker 1: and their numb nut ideas about not having to work. 592 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: I've already got a couple of great posts I want 593 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 1: to share with you in an hour two. I'm glad 594 00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:35,720 Speaker 1: you thought of that. It's been too long. 595 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 2: Also, I went with kind of a silly general manager today. 596 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 2: At the beginning of the show, we always appointed an 597 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 2: honorary general manager. I really should have gone with Maria 598 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:49,880 Speaker 2: Corina Machado, who just won the Nobel Peace Prize, the 599 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: democracy activist from Venezuela. What she has said about Trump 600 00:31:55,640 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: blasting the Venezuelan drug boats out of the water will shot. 601 00:31:59,240 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 4: Oh. 602 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: I can't wait to hear this. And I didn't fully 603 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: appreciate her until sixty minutes pointed out what she's been 604 00:32:04,960 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 1: doing the other night. 605 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, she is a person of enormous courage. Yeah, yeah, 606 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:12,880 Speaker 2: really fantastic. Here's your freedom loving quote of the day 607 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,320 Speaker 2: in her honor. Today we start a series of quotes 608 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 2: about dictators and dictatorships, This one from Churchill. You see 609 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 2: these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of 610 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 2: their soldiers and the truncheons of their police. Yet in 611 00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 2: their hearts there is an unspoken fear. They are afraid 612 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 2: of words and thoughts. Words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home, 613 00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 2: all the more powerful because forbidden, they terrify them. 614 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: Had some good Churchillian stuff, gives it out your blood. 615 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 1: Go get them with me mailbag. 616 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,560 Speaker 2: Truviason note won't you mail bag at Armstrong and Getty 617 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 2: dot com Ryan from Euston Rights, Dear cold Warrior and 618 00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 2: old simple Jack. Old simple Jack has said he wants 619 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 2: a car with the air conditioning. You just slide the 620 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 2: blue slide to get colder, in the red side to 621 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,400 Speaker 2: get warmer, and Emmanuel crank for the windows. But what 622 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: does he buy a cyber truck? Then he goes out 623 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:18,120 Speaker 2: and buys a fancy coffee maker. I claim old simple 624 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 2: Jack needs to come clean and admit he is old 625 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 2: fancy Jack. 626 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 1: The cyber truck is a good blast the coffee thing, though. 627 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: That is simple. That's like basic. The most basic coffee 628 00:33:29,080 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: making you can get is starting with the being grinding 629 00:33:31,800 --> 00:33:34,120 Speaker 1: and up hot water, et cetera. Figuring out how to 630 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: do it yourself. Yeah. Maybe, but yeah, the cyber truck 631 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:39,560 Speaker 1: makes sense. 632 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 2: Eric for Mosa, last name from beautiful Astoria, Oregon. Right, 633 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,040 Speaker 2: So that's the former name of Taiwan, Formosa. 634 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: Way back in the day. 635 00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 2: Guys, When it comes to the idea of defending Taiwan 636 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 2: against the predations of the PRC, I believe it is 637 00:33:56,480 --> 00:33:59,320 Speaker 2: worth emphasizing that the Republic of China, aligned with the 638 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 2: US since its formation in nineteen eleven, is more important 639 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 2: than a supplier of high tech chips. Taiwan is virant 640 00:34:05,640 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 2: liberal democracy, vibrant liberal democracy that deserves protection from not 641 00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:12,320 Speaker 2: just US, but it's friends in Asia as well. 642 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:14,280 Speaker 1: Japan. Korea. 643 00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 2: Well, we no longer have an official devents treaty with Taiwan. 644 00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:19,240 Speaker 2: If you get a chance to visit there, you'll understand 645 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,440 Speaker 2: we have no better friends than that country. Whoops, did 646 00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:25,240 Speaker 2: I call the island of Taiwan a country. Darn tootin 647 00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 2: I did. No. 648 00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: I agree with you, but I think the reality, at 649 00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: least right now is the world is not willing to 650 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,920 Speaker 1: fight China for it. Yeah, just like the world is 651 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: not willing to fight Russia for Ukraine. I'm afraid you 652 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 1: are correct. Frequent correspondent Paolo says, Guys, I'm not sure 653 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: if you've mentioned this. Bill Gates is changing his tune 654 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:47,960 Speaker 1: on climate change. No, we've been wanting to get to 655 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:51,280 Speaker 1: that store. We haven't yet to cover up his Epstein files. Oh, 656 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:54,360 Speaker 1: for God's sake, let's see polar rights. Bill Gates is 657 00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:57,240 Speaker 1: a pretty influential voice on climate change. He now suggests 658 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: that we're too narrowly focused on reducing emissions, that we 659 00:35:00,280 --> 00:35:03,600 Speaker 1: should spend more time on mitigation, on adopting adapting to 660 00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:06,040 Speaker 1: a warmer world, and on improving the lives of those 661 00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:11,919 Speaker 1: most affected. You know, Bill Gates, as a young garage. 662 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:15,719 Speaker 2: Geek, was super crazy smart about writing software, and he 663 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 2: built Microsoft and became for a while the world's richest men. 664 00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 2: Certainly still one of the world's most rich men still. 665 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:25,640 Speaker 2: But he could have asked me, and I'd have told 666 00:35:25,719 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 2: him that five years ago, you've just come around to 667 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 2: that bill, that all of the yelling and marching and 668 00:35:32,840 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: chanting and stupid laws and stupid blue cities has not 669 00:35:36,840 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 2: put a dent in global emissions, and then a slight 670 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:42,319 Speaker 2: rise in temperature is a reality we just have. 671 00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 1: To deal with. 672 00:35:43,239 --> 00:35:45,600 Speaker 2: Welcome.

Oh boy, oh boy, sell your parka, 675 00:35:55,400 --> 00:36:01,360 Speaker 2: buy some shorts. That's my climate change policy. It's simple, 676 00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 2: it's effective and inexpensive. 677 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: It's not very expensive. 678 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:12,840 Speaker 2: Okay, sweetheart, aren't you on the you're demonstrating for Hamas. 679 00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:16,399 Speaker 1: Now right, that's your new gig video just hit a 680 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:22,799 Speaker 1: stock market record that I find frightening.
