WEBVTT - I Can't Bribe A Dock Worker?!

0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:15.320
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:15.360 --> 0:00:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and

0:00:20.120 --> 0:00:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Joie and he.

0:00:24.480 --> 0:00:32.319
<v Speaker 2>Arms You get it. Have you been watching the four

0:00:32.560 --> 0:00:36.440
<v Speaker 2>X markets? The four X markets? You haven't been watching

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 2>the four x markets? You should be live from Studio C.

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:44.400
<v Speaker 2>He dimly let room beg with in the bowels of

0:00:44.479 --> 0:00:48.680
<v Speaker 2>the Armstrong in any communications compound, they were under the tube.

0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Ledge of not talking about tariffs, that's our general manager.

0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Our general manager is the concept of not talking about tariffs.

0:00:57.520 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 2>As I immediately launch into just the tiniest bit of

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:02.080
<v Speaker 2>talk to explain why we're not going to talk about Terrek.

0:01:02.880 --> 0:01:05.880
<v Speaker 2>I was just reading this thing about from some supposed

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 2>expert about the four X markets. It's all capitals FORI

0:01:09.200 --> 0:01:12.680
<v Speaker 2>ex a phrase, I've are a word the term I

0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:14.880
<v Speaker 2>guess it's an acronym I've never seen before in my life.

0:01:14.880 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 2>And how you need to understand those markets. And I mean,

0:01:17.680 --> 0:01:20.160
<v Speaker 2>I knew this weeks ago. I've known this my whole life.

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know much about this stuff. And just because

0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:25.840
<v Speaker 2>it's the number one story in the world right now,

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:28.520
<v Speaker 2>I've decided, you know, I'm not going to try to

0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:32.240
<v Speaker 2>get my AA degree in this by reading up on it.

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 2>It'll come and go as a story. I'll repeat things

0:01:35.360 --> 0:01:37.360
<v Speaker 2>that other smart people say and you can sort it

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:40.280
<v Speaker 2>out on your own or whatever. It's not my area

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:43.279
<v Speaker 2>of expertise or interest for that matter, but I became

0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:45.880
<v Speaker 2>aware of reading a couple of things today from smart people.

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 2>It's just it's so incredibly flipp and complicated. I gotta

0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:54.800
<v Speaker 2>believe the massed, the mass amount of people you hear

0:01:54.840 --> 0:01:58.440
<v Speaker 2>commenting on this don't know what they're talking about. That's

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:00.600
<v Speaker 2>got to be the case anyway.

0:02:02.440 --> 0:02:02.680
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:02:02.720 --> 0:02:06.160
<v Speaker 2>The other one thing that is worth mentioning that happened overnight. Oh,

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 2>Joe's at the Master's Golf Tournament, which is the biggest

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:10.639
<v Speaker 2>golf tournament of the year. If you're not into golf,

0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:12.919
<v Speaker 2>it's a really really big deal, very very hard ticket

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:15.959
<v Speaker 2>to get. He's there today only, but he's uh, he's

0:02:16.000 --> 0:02:20.640
<v Speaker 2>going to call in later, we think overnight. So Uh,

0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 2>Trump announced yesterday, no made a miss. People are reporting

0:02:23.520 --> 0:02:26.400
<v Speaker 2>this wrong. Are tariffs on China are not one hundred

0:02:26.440 --> 0:02:29.760
<v Speaker 2>and twenty five percent, They're one hundred and forty five

0:02:29.840 --> 0:02:31.920
<v Speaker 2>percent or forty eight percent or whatever. It is, but

0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 2>it's much higher. It's a lot, very very high. So

0:02:34.600 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 2>everything going into China, are coming in from China has

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:40.880
<v Speaker 2>a one hundred and forty five percent tariff on it,

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:45.440
<v Speaker 2>close to that. So China announced overnight while you were asleep,

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:48.480
<v Speaker 2>everything going into their country from the United States now

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:51.200
<v Speaker 2>has a one hundred and twenty five percent tariff on it.

0:02:51.480 --> 0:02:53.960
<v Speaker 2>So it is. It was already, but it is now

0:02:54.000 --> 0:02:58.720
<v Speaker 2>a full blown trade war between the two biggest economies

0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:01.880
<v Speaker 2>that have ever existed on playing earth full board trade war.

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:05.200
<v Speaker 2>The analysis beyond that, I'm not capable of doing it.

0:03:05.240 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm not smart enough, but it should be exciting to

0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 2>watch and see what things start to cost to come

0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:11.639
<v Speaker 2>in from China. That is the end of my commentary

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 2>on the trade war. Spilled coffee all over myself driving

0:03:15.320 --> 0:03:19.919
<v Speaker 2>to work today, and I've yet to find a travel

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:22.480
<v Speaker 2>mug sort of thing that I can drink out of successfully.

0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 2>I just can't.

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:28.160
<v Speaker 4>So, I mean, there are quite a few of them.

0:03:29.800 --> 0:03:33.160
<v Speaker 2>The lids on most of them are built in such

0:03:33.200 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 2>a way that you have to tilt your head back

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:38.520
<v Speaker 2>to be able to get the liquid to come out,

0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 2>and then you're staring up in the air and you

0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 2>can't see the road if I drink out of a

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:44.480
<v Speaker 2>regular cup, which is what I've always done, and Joe

0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:46.080
<v Speaker 2>has always said, why don't you have some sort of

0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 2>travel mug with the lid. I just drink out of

0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 2>a regular coffee cup because you can just tilt it

0:03:49.640 --> 0:03:53.480
<v Speaker 2>a little bit to drink. Okay, see look here, I'll

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:57.160
<v Speaker 2>show you. See this lid only flips up this far. Yeah,

0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 2>so it's against my nose already. Okay, so you can't

0:04:00.520 --> 0:04:02.960
<v Speaker 2>get any liquid to come out. It's almost vertical. Still.

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:04.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm problematic. I see that.

0:04:04.800 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 2>So to get liquid to come on, I've got to

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 2>get tilted at least this far. Uh.

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that doesn't work, in which case I'm staring straight

0:04:12.160 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 3>up in the air. Have you considered a straw hot coffee?

0:04:18.560 --> 0:04:22.000
<v Speaker 2>But maybe this is an official Starbucks mug too, and

0:04:22.000 --> 0:04:23.920
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't cheap thirty bucks.

0:04:24.520 --> 0:04:26.440
<v Speaker 4>This is this is quite the conundrum.

0:04:26.720 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Thirty bucks thirty bucks. Yeah, because it's just Starbucks on it.

0:04:33.080 --> 0:04:34.479
<v Speaker 4>I'm disappointed in you.

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:38.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm disappointed in me on a daily basis. The other

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:41.200
<v Speaker 2>thing I wanted to talk about is a corporate training

0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:44.040
<v Speaker 2>that we all have to take. Because I spent a

0:04:44.120 --> 0:04:46.320
<v Speaker 2>good hour and a half yes day on some corporate training.

0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 2>And I know every corporation does that. It is not

0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:51.200
<v Speaker 2>a complaint about my corporation that employs me, and I'm

0:04:51.279 --> 0:04:53.359
<v Speaker 2>very happy about it and the wage we agreed on

0:04:53.440 --> 0:04:55.200
<v Speaker 2>and everything. I have no complaints about that. I know

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:58.640
<v Speaker 2>every corporation does this, so this is not unique. But

0:04:59.000 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 2>everybody I know also complains about it. And this is

0:05:02.120 --> 0:05:04.159
<v Speaker 2>the sort of thing I wish Doge could get rid of.

0:05:04.720 --> 0:05:10.360
<v Speaker 2>How many man hours are wasted every quarter or every

0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:15.400
<v Speaker 2>year on training for your various industry that, from what

0:05:15.480 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 2>I hear from y'all, is the same as it is

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:21.160
<v Speaker 2>with ours. It's completely worthless. I mean, there's no there's

0:05:21.160 --> 0:05:24.919
<v Speaker 2>no real anything to it. I've always assumed it's just

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:29.880
<v Speaker 2>it's a way to get straight with the lawyers, so

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:33.760
<v Speaker 2>that if suddenly does sexually harass somebody or steal office

0:05:33.760 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 2>equipment or whatever, you can't come back and say, well,

0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:39.920
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know and sue the corporation. The corporation can say, yes,

0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 2>we trained you in this, and you signed a little

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:43.359
<v Speaker 2>certificate that says you were trained in it.

0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't understand the tactic of turning power points with

0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:51.000
<v Speaker 3>words that I can read into a video that I

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:53.320
<v Speaker 3>have to sit through as the words scroll by, and

0:05:53.320 --> 0:05:55.120
<v Speaker 3>I listen to someone else read them to me.

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.880
<v Speaker 2>I wonder, man, ours aren't as long as the governments.

0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 2>I have a friend who works in almost of the

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.280
<v Speaker 2>agency I shouldn't in one of the government agencies, and

0:06:03.320 --> 0:06:06.359
<v Speaker 2>there's a really long I wonder if lawyers said, no,

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:10.159
<v Speaker 2>it's got to be at least forty minutes long for

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.640
<v Speaker 2>courts to believe that you trained them. I wonder if

0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.359
<v Speaker 2>there's something like that, because it does seem, yeah, like

0:06:15.440 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 2>they go out of their way to drag it out

0:06:17.480 --> 0:06:20.040
<v Speaker 2>something you could read in ten minutes. They talk very

0:06:20.120 --> 0:06:22.880
<v Speaker 2>very slowly to make it last longer. Yes. Yeah, back

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 2>in the day, some of them you could actually fast

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:27.760
<v Speaker 2>forward that. Not that I ever did that, but right,

0:06:28.279 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 2>you wouldn't do that, Oh, of course, not because he's conscientious. Yeah,

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:34.440
<v Speaker 2>that's right. Early days of doing these online, you can

0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:36.280
<v Speaker 2>just click to the end. Now you got to let

0:06:36.320 --> 0:06:38.920
<v Speaker 2>them roll in real time. And I assume everybody does

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 2>them the same way I do. You Press play, you

0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:43.279
<v Speaker 2>go do your laundry, you come back. Okay, that one's

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:45.560
<v Speaker 2>that made it to the end. Press play again, come back,

0:06:45.640 --> 0:06:48.880
<v Speaker 2>later until you're done. And everybody does that, and everybody

0:06:49.000 --> 0:06:52.400
<v Speaker 2>knows everybody does that, including the bosses at every company.

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.080
<v Speaker 2>So what are we doing.

0:06:54.279 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 3>It's got to be legal, I know it is, but

0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 3>even so it's a joke.

0:07:00.720 --> 0:07:03.920
<v Speaker 2>It's just it makes me angry on that level. It's

0:07:03.920 --> 0:07:05.839
<v Speaker 2>not the time it takes. I've hated this since I

0:07:05.920 --> 0:07:09.920
<v Speaker 2>was a kid. I don't like pretending. I don't like

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 2>everybody lying to themselves. It's like an orwell thing. I

0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:16.600
<v Speaker 2>just I don't like us all sitting around and pretending

0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:21.239
<v Speaker 2>this isn't silly. It makes me nuts. And everybody knows it's.

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 5>Ridiculous, and your boss knows it's ridiculous, and your boss's

0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:26.840
<v Speaker 5>boss knows it's ridiculous, and yet we all do it

0:07:26.840 --> 0:07:29.120
<v Speaker 5>in every corporation. I don't know how many times you

0:07:29.160 --> 0:07:30.760
<v Speaker 5>have to do it per year, with all the training

0:07:30.880 --> 0:07:32.800
<v Speaker 5>hours and hours of it.

0:07:32.800 --> 0:07:34.560
<v Speaker 2>It makes me crazy. This is the sort of thing

0:07:34.640 --> 0:07:36.880
<v Speaker 2>dods should be able to get rid of. You know,

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:41.160
<v Speaker 2>they tally up every March madness. They say four point

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.000
<v Speaker 2>three billion dollars worth of productivity will be lost this

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.440
<v Speaker 2>year as people fill out their brackets at work. How

0:07:46.480 --> 0:07:50.360
<v Speaker 2>many billions of dollars are productivity are lost from these

0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:55.520
<v Speaker 2>training things that accomplish nothing. Actually, there are studies that

0:07:55.600 --> 0:07:59.880
<v Speaker 2>show that after sexual harassment training, sexual harassment goes up.

0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 2>There have been multiple studies show that. I don't quite

0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:04.800
<v Speaker 2>understand why that would be, because it's like a how too,

0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.119
<v Speaker 2>you're looking hot because you can't say, oh, that's bad.

0:08:11.440 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 2>You see you guys say that and you think that's

0:08:12.800 --> 0:08:14.680
<v Speaker 2>a pretty good line. Is that what happens? I don't

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:15.280
<v Speaker 2>quite understand.

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:16.960
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I haven't tried that one yet.

0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 2>Our main training in our industry first month, So I'm

0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:22.680
<v Speaker 2>sure this is true in whatever industry you are. It's

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:26.520
<v Speaker 2>so like anachronistic or antiquated or whatever about things that

0:08:26.680 --> 0:08:29.520
<v Speaker 2>used to be true years ago or or never occurreding

0:08:29.920 --> 0:08:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Like luckily, Michael, Katie and I have been trained recently

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:37.280
<v Speaker 2>this week not to go down to a dock and

0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 2>bribe a dock worker as they unload a boat, which

0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:43.199
<v Speaker 2>I was really considering doing. Yeah, I was very close

0:08:43.280 --> 0:08:46.040
<v Speaker 2>until I saw that video and then I went, oh,

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.320
<v Speaker 2>I can't do that. I'm not supposed to go down

0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:52.000
<v Speaker 2>to the dock where they unload giant containerships, bribe dock

0:08:52.080 --> 0:08:54.760
<v Speaker 2>workers and bring stuff to the radio stay.

0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 4>I had to come up with something else. It's just awful.

0:08:57.360 --> 0:08:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I'm not complaining about my company. I'm happy with

0:08:59.480 --> 0:09:02.520
<v Speaker 2>my company. I just sang. Every corporation in America does this,

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:04.360
<v Speaker 2>and it's a waste of time and money. Yes, Michael,

0:09:04.559 --> 0:09:07.800
<v Speaker 2>if bosses are listening, I find him joyful and I

0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:09.880
<v Speaker 2>really enjoy this stuff. You wish there were more? Yeah,

0:09:09.920 --> 0:09:13.320
<v Speaker 2>I do. Yes, it's hilarious. I mean it's It would

0:09:13.320 --> 0:09:15.280
<v Speaker 2>be hilarious if it didn't take up so much time.

0:09:16.200 --> 0:09:19.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god. Anyway, if you have those, let me

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:21.320
<v Speaker 2>know what you get trained in in your industry and

0:09:21.320 --> 0:09:23.760
<v Speaker 2>how stupid they are on the text line four one

0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:27.480
<v Speaker 2>five two nine five KFTC. Let's start the show officially.

0:09:27.720 --> 0:09:30.120
<v Speaker 2>We got some good guests today. Whenever Joe's going, I

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:31.719
<v Speaker 2>line up some guests, and we got some good I've

0:09:31.720 --> 0:09:33.520
<v Speaker 2>been wanting to talk to Mikelines for a long time

0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 2>because this is a bunch of military stuff going on.

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 2>We haven't talked to him in weeks. I can't wait

0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:40.560
<v Speaker 2>to do that official start of the show. I'm Jack Armstrong,

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 2>He's Joe Getty on this It is Friday, April the eleventh.

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Here twenty twenty five. We are Armstrong and Geeddy and

0:09:47.520 --> 0:09:49.760
<v Speaker 2>we approve of this program. Let's begin the show. Heading

0:09:49.800 --> 0:09:52.199
<v Speaker 2>into the weekend at Mark.

0:09:52.240 --> 0:09:57.319
<v Speaker 6>Texas is investigating Kellogg's over his healthy products containing artificial

0:09:57.360 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 6>flavors and dies. Come on, please, you should know it's

0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:03.360
<v Speaker 6>not healthy when they have to spell fruit with two o's.

0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, give me a smile. You're going to miss

0:10:08.760 --> 0:10:10.720
<v Speaker 2>the dies when they're gone. Maybe they're all killing us.

0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:13.320
<v Speaker 2>Maybe the dyes are giving us cancer and they should go.

0:10:13.400 --> 0:10:15.440
<v Speaker 2>But you get rid of the dies, and everything's just

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:19.360
<v Speaker 2>kind of a gray or a brown, not appetizing. Yeah,

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:20.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't think people are going to enjoy that. What

0:10:20.960 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 2>color would a pop tart be in its natural form

0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:24.680
<v Speaker 2>and all the ingredients so that it'd be some sort

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:27.720
<v Speaker 2>of gray sludge instead of a brown crust. I think

0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 2>same with your fruit loops. Some of the other guests,

0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:34.720
<v Speaker 2>we were going to talk to somebody about this giant

0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:39.560
<v Speaker 2>legislation bill that they're trying to get through. Possibly some

0:10:39.640 --> 0:10:42.960
<v Speaker 2>of this terrorist stuff is to hide the fact that

0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:45.360
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to renew the Trump tax cuts, which is

0:10:45.400 --> 0:10:48.640
<v Speaker 2>a really really big deal for everybody who pays taxes

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:54.240
<v Speaker 2>and for the economy and the Democrats hate it. I

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.520
<v Speaker 2>paid my tax bill yesterday for the year, wrote the

0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:59.360
<v Speaker 2>biggest check I've ever written in my life. And I

0:10:59.559 --> 0:11:02.079
<v Speaker 2>just gotta love taxes. Gotta love them. And then when

0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:03.720
<v Speaker 2>you come to work and talk about all the ways

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:04.720
<v Speaker 2>that they waste your taxes.

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:05.120
<v Speaker 3>MMMM.

0:11:05.559 --> 0:11:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Makes it even more enjoyable when you find out that

0:11:08.600 --> 0:11:11.520
<v Speaker 2>big chunk of money that you spent is being used unwisely.

0:11:11.679 --> 0:11:15.720
<v Speaker 2>M Doesn't that feel good? Warms your warms and cockles

0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:17.600
<v Speaker 2>your heart. Anyway, We've got a lot of good stuff

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 2>on the way text with those corporate trainings that you

0:11:20.000 --> 0:11:23.280
<v Speaker 2>do please, and we've got clips of the week coming up. Also,

0:11:23.360 --> 0:11:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Katie's headlines all the way stay with us. Just from

0:11:29.040 --> 0:11:35.840
<v Speaker 2>the Seattle Times. Rii's new CEO has apologized for his

0:11:36.000 --> 0:11:41.320
<v Speaker 2>endorsement of President Trump's Secretary of the Interior. Wow, God

0:11:41.320 --> 0:11:42.920
<v Speaker 2>of world do we live in? Well? ARII is a

0:11:42.920 --> 0:11:45.720
<v Speaker 2>pretty uh hippie dippy store. I really like it, But

0:11:45.840 --> 0:11:48.679
<v Speaker 2>they couldn't handle Trump's Secretary of Interior. Whoever the heck?

0:11:48.760 --> 0:11:50.960
<v Speaker 2>That is? All right, let's find out what the headlines

0:11:51.000 --> 0:11:51.760
<v Speaker 2>are with Katy Green.

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:54.120
<v Speaker 3>All right, Well, this is the top story everywhere, but

0:11:54.120 --> 0:11:58.480
<v Speaker 3>from USA Today. Tech company ceo among six killed in

0:11:58.600 --> 0:12:00.840
<v Speaker 3>New York City helicopter crash.

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:02.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, part of the reason, it's the top stories that

0:12:02.760 --> 0:12:04.440
<v Speaker 2>happened in New York, So things that happen in New

0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:06.079
<v Speaker 2>York always end up being the top story. It's a

0:12:06.160 --> 0:12:09.880
<v Speaker 2>terrible story, but it has no greater significance to anyone's life.

0:12:10.240 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 4>The video is awful.

0:12:11.920 --> 0:12:15.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the picture I mean, I've had. I've taken pictures

0:12:15.520 --> 0:12:19.079
<v Speaker 2>like that with my brothers and my parents when we

0:12:19.080 --> 0:12:23.240
<v Speaker 2>were kids, and with my family. The family picture they

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.079
<v Speaker 2>take for you right before you get on the helicopter

0:12:25.120 --> 0:12:26.760
<v Speaker 2>trip and then there are a few minutes later they

0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:29.440
<v Speaker 2>were dead. What a horrible, horrible deal. The road just

0:12:29.480 --> 0:12:31.680
<v Speaker 2>broke off you. That's the end of that.

0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.559
<v Speaker 4>Yeah. From the Associated Press.

0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:39.720
<v Speaker 3>US stocks dive as euphoria on Wall Street reverts to

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.400
<v Speaker 3>fear about US China trade war.

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I'm gonna read a little thing from a Wall

0:12:45.120 --> 0:12:47.240
<v Speaker 2>Street Journal's editorial board about that.

0:12:47.559 --> 0:12:53.000
<v Speaker 3>Coming up From CNN, Supreme Court says Trump administration must

0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:57.120
<v Speaker 3>quote facilitate release of man wrongly deported to L.

0:12:57.200 --> 0:12:58.120
<v Speaker 4>Salvador prison.

0:12:58.559 --> 0:13:01.800
<v Speaker 2>That's a heck of a deal. To their credit, the

0:13:01.880 --> 0:13:04.800
<v Speaker 2>Trump people announced that they had made a mistake. Once

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:09.439
<v Speaker 2>they figured it out, they didn't claim that they didn't.

0:13:10.640 --> 0:13:12.560
<v Speaker 2>But now the Supreme Court is saying it's on them

0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:14.480
<v Speaker 2>to try to figure out how to get the guy back.

0:13:14.720 --> 0:13:18.840
<v Speaker 2>So is the guy currently in that horrible prison, that's

0:13:19.000 --> 0:13:22.240
<v Speaker 2>one of the worst prisons on earth. Good God, he

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:24.600
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't want to be there in there for an hour,

0:13:24.720 --> 0:13:28.559
<v Speaker 2>let alone weeks. No, geez, he's gonna and you know

0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:31.880
<v Speaker 2>when he comes back, Oh, he will be on sixty

0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:35.520
<v Speaker 2>minutes or the you know, George Stephanopolis will have him

0:13:35.559 --> 0:13:38.439
<v Speaker 2>on ABC this week, or he'll be everywhere.

0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:38.640
<v Speaker 4>Meet the press.

0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he'll be Yeah, he'll be all over the place,

0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:43.319
<v Speaker 2>just to make Trump look horrible with his whole deportation

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:44.840
<v Speaker 2>day From.

0:13:44.720 --> 0:13:49.080
<v Speaker 3>The New York Times, Trump envoy arrives in Russia, seeking

0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:51.480
<v Speaker 3>to rekindle Ukraine.

0:13:51.040 --> 0:13:54.720
<v Speaker 2>War talks, which are nowhere.

0:13:56.160 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 4>From the Guardian.

0:13:58.160 --> 0:14:06.800
<v Speaker 3>Law eight olymp adds swimming and sprints to mixed gender categories,

0:14:08.880 --> 0:14:11.760
<v Speaker 3>so they're gonna instead of having men's and women's and

0:14:11.920 --> 0:14:14.240
<v Speaker 3>because of this whole trans thing now they're just saying, oh,

0:14:14.280 --> 0:14:15.920
<v Speaker 3>you guys all do it together, not.

0:14:16.160 --> 0:14:19.840
<v Speaker 2>All of them. They'll still have the men's one one

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 2>hundred meter, but they're also have a mixed version.

0:14:21.760 --> 0:14:24.000
<v Speaker 4>They're going to have a mixed gender version.

0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:27.920
<v Speaker 2>With the same participants or different participants.

0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:30.920
<v Speaker 3>I they didn't get into all that detail. They were

0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:32.880
<v Speaker 3>just talking about the events themselves.

0:14:32.920 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Wow. Unless they go out of their way to rig

0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:39.880
<v Speaker 2>it is, aren't the dudes just gonna dominate that?

0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:42.280
<v Speaker 4>You'd think like they usually would?

0:14:42.400 --> 0:14:46.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like they do? Yeah, right, you know, in case

0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:49.040
<v Speaker 2>you're not aware of this, like the best high school

0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:54.400
<v Speaker 2>boys can beat the best women in the world Olympic records.

0:14:54.400 --> 0:14:57.840
<v Speaker 2>It's just just a fact. I didn't know the Olympics

0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 2>were in LA in twenty twenty eight.

0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:01.800
<v Speaker 4>That's kind of yeah.

0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:05.960
<v Speaker 3>This one from the Athletic MLB Insider says the billion

0:15:06.080 --> 0:15:09.760
<v Speaker 3>dollar ballplayer could arrive by twenty thirty.

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Billion dollar contract. Wow.

0:15:14.480 --> 0:15:15.960
<v Speaker 4>This one from California Globe.

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 3>Former VP Kamala Harris consults with Hillary Clinton on possible

0:15:21.680 --> 0:15:25.680
<v Speaker 3>governor run in twenty twenty six. She's also meeting with

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:27.480
<v Speaker 3>Biden and Butt Edge Edge.

0:15:28.000 --> 0:15:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Why would you meet with Joe Biden about anything? I

0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.640
<v Speaker 2>would think she would know better. I mean, I can

0:15:32.720 --> 0:15:36.520
<v Speaker 2>understand her meet with Hillary and other people, But as

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 2>she tries to decide whether she wants to run for

0:15:38.880 --> 0:15:43.440
<v Speaker 2>governor in California. Basically, her thinking is, probably, is it

0:15:43.840 --> 0:15:47.960
<v Speaker 2>one while I win, will I be embarrassed? Well, I

0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:51.600
<v Speaker 2>absolutely embarrassed. The embarrassed and the embarrassment would come in

0:15:51.720 --> 0:15:55.240
<v Speaker 2>not getting the nomination. I think other Democrats run in

0:15:55.360 --> 0:16:01.120
<v Speaker 2>Californians think, yeah, you're You're ridiculous. New York Times had

0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:05.160
<v Speaker 2>some pretty scathing stuff about her yesterday and how Democrats

0:16:05.200 --> 0:16:07.680
<v Speaker 2>around the country don't want her around. They don't think

0:16:07.720 --> 0:16:10.080
<v Speaker 2>she helps. She walks out on the stage with.

0:16:10.000 --> 0:16:11.920
<v Speaker 4>You from page six.

0:16:12.440 --> 0:16:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Jack Nicholson offered his home to ex wife during La Fires.

0:16:17.320 --> 0:16:18.480
<v Speaker 4>Quote heartbreaking, Lee.

0:16:18.520 --> 0:16:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Sweet, that was nice.

0:16:20.080 --> 0:16:21.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's one of my favorite actors of all time.

0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:24.880
<v Speaker 3>This one from the New York Post.

0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:27.000
<v Speaker 4>This sketchy drink.

0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:31.400
<v Speaker 3>Order immediately puts every bartender on high alert. Quote scanning

0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:32.920
<v Speaker 3>for the nearest security guard.

0:16:33.640 --> 0:16:37.920
<v Speaker 2>What drink is it? Well, I yes, sir, No, I

0:16:37.920 --> 0:16:38.840
<v Speaker 2>don't have a guess.

0:16:38.840 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 4>The Long Island iced tea.

0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:42.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh, because it's got so much booze in it.

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 3>They say, people drinking those are looking to black out.

0:16:45.720 --> 0:16:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean I was aware of that back when

0:16:48.160 --> 0:16:49.760
<v Speaker 2>I used drink if I was with somebody who's drinking

0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Long Island iced teas, I realize you are going to

0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:52.280
<v Speaker 2>get wasted.

0:16:52.400 --> 0:16:53.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, red flag.

0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:59.320
<v Speaker 3>And finally, the Babylon Bee protesters remain unaffected by Trump's

0:16:59.520 --> 0:17:01.120
<v Speaker 3>shower deregulation.

0:17:01.240 --> 0:17:02.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I want to talk about that. That gets a

0:17:02.960 --> 0:17:05.720
<v Speaker 2>lot of joking. But don't be messing with our water pressure,

0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:11.600
<v Speaker 2>you nanny staters. And that's so red. That's what the

0:17:11.640 --> 0:17:14.359
<v Speaker 2>founding fathers had in mind, is the federal government deciding

0:17:14.359 --> 0:17:16.840
<v Speaker 2>how much water pressure you should have in your shower. Okay,

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:18.199
<v Speaker 2>we got clips of the week coming up in a

0:17:18.200 --> 0:17:23.160
<v Speaker 2>lot more armstrong and getty. Thank you to the texture

0:17:23.200 --> 0:17:26.639
<v Speaker 2>that had the same drinking coffee problem out of a

0:17:26.720 --> 0:17:29.800
<v Speaker 2>mug I had and suggested, the yetti coffee mug is

0:17:29.840 --> 0:17:32.200
<v Speaker 2>the best. The way you'd turn it to the side,

0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:33.679
<v Speaker 2>you'd have to tip it up so much. There you go.

0:17:33.880 --> 0:17:35.920
<v Speaker 2>That might be my answer today. Those are expensive, though.

0:17:37.720 --> 0:17:39.840
<v Speaker 4>Not more expensive than your Starbucks got thirty.

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:44.040
<v Speaker 2>Bucks probably not mm got this text. I don't know

0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:45.960
<v Speaker 2>if I agree with them, but it's a decent point.

0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.919
<v Speaker 2>I would gladly stay in an El Salvador in prison

0:17:48.960 --> 0:17:51.879
<v Speaker 2>for three weeks to earn the payout that he's gonna

0:17:51.920 --> 0:17:55.520
<v Speaker 2>get from this lawsuit. I hadn't thought about that. It

0:17:55.600 --> 0:18:04.840
<v Speaker 2>could be epic apic. He's he could be the one

0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:10.080
<v Speaker 2>of the bigger payouts ever. Yeah, I don't know. It

0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:12.560
<v Speaker 2>could be pretty awful. And that is Salvador in prison

0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:16.200
<v Speaker 2>if you get out alive. But yeah, he is gonna

0:18:16.200 --> 0:18:18.760
<v Speaker 2>get a ton of money. I hadn't even thought about that.

0:18:19.000 --> 0:18:21.320
<v Speaker 2>And the interview circuit, Oh my god, get ready for that.

0:18:22.240 --> 0:18:24.400
<v Speaker 2>We got a whole bunch of great texts about your

0:18:24.400 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 2>corporate training that are both humorous and interesting. Got Wall

0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:32.000
<v Speaker 2>Street Journal editorial board weighing in on the tariffs, maybe

0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:34.359
<v Speaker 2>one aspect of it you hadn't thought of before, and

0:18:34.480 --> 0:18:36.320
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of good stuff to get to some great

0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.520
<v Speaker 2>guests today. But first we need to take a fond

0:18:39.600 --> 0:18:41.679
<v Speaker 2>look back at the week that was. We call it

0:18:41.760 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 2>cow Its clips up the week.

0:18:43.880 --> 0:18:49.160
<v Speaker 1>The Silent Riot has begun talk.

0:18:51.119 --> 0:19:07.360
<v Speaker 7>Which and that's it. Connecticut is back off top.

0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:16.960

<v Speaker 8>brought the extinct dire wolf back to life, a species

0:19:24.920 --> 0:19:28.680
<v Speaker 8>that hasn't walked the earth since the Stone Age. May

<v Speaker 4>Is this hold On?

0:19:35.240 --> 0:19:39.439
<v Speaker 2>Is that counsel for the case? And that ELAW's a

0:19:39.480 --> 0:19:42.439
<v Speaker 2>car manufacturer. But he's not a car manufacturer, He's a

0:19:42.440 --> 0:19:43.320
<v Speaker 2>car assembler.

0:19:44.440 --> 0:19:48.359
<v Speaker 3>Elon Musk calling President Trump's top trade advisor dumber than

0:19:48.400 --> 0:19:49.240
<v Speaker 3>a sack of bricks.

0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:53.280
<v Speaker 2>We do picking cut we are. You can't pay us

0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:54.560
<v Speaker 2>enough to file a plantation.

0:19:55.640 --> 0:19:58.520
<v Speaker 7>On Saturday, protesters took to the streets in the city,

0:19:58.680 --> 0:20:02.560
<v Speaker 7>all across the country's picking out against the Trump administration's moves.

0:20:03.480 --> 0:20:05.879
<v Speaker 4>The silent riot has begun.

0:20:05.960 --> 0:20:08.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, I'm sorry.

0:20:12.440 --> 0:20:13.000
<v Speaker 4>I'm telling you.

0:20:13.080 --> 0:20:16.360
<v Speaker 9>These countries are calling us up, kissing my ass.

0:20:17.480 --> 0:20:21.720
<v Speaker 2>There's no postponing. They are definitely stay in place. But

0:20:21.880 --> 0:20:26.199
<v Speaker 2>now it's our turn to do the ripping. The s

0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and P five hundred losing more than five trillion dollars

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:30.679
<v Speaker 2>in value in just two days.

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:33.560
<v Speaker 4>Whose throat do I get to choke if this proves

0:20:33.560 --> 0:20:34.119
<v Speaker 4>to be wrong.

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:37.280
<v Speaker 2>I know what the hell I'm doing. I know what

0:20:37.320 --> 0:20:39.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing, and you know what I'm doing too.

0:20:40.280 --> 0:20:43.640
<v Speaker 3>The President announces he's putting a ninety day pause on.

0:20:43.520 --> 0:20:47.600
<v Speaker 2>Most of his tariff. It's the bond market. Those markets

0:20:47.680 --> 0:20:49.280
<v Speaker 2>weren't imploding last night.

0:20:50.400 --> 0:20:53.800
<v Speaker 9>Well, I thought that people were jumping a little bit

0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:54.880
<v Speaker 9>out of line.

0:20:54.920 --> 0:20:59.080
<v Speaker 2>They were getting yippie. You know, the bond market right

0:20:59.119 --> 0:21:00.000
<v Speaker 2>now is beautiful.

0:21:01.119 --> 0:21:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Any of you in the media clearly missed the art

0:21:04.119 --> 0:21:04.640
<v Speaker 3>of the deal.

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:11.720
<v Speaker 2>This was his strategy. Spacing off and daydreaming is incredibly

0:21:11.760 --> 0:21:15.920
<v Speaker 2>important as a sleep. Hope you are well or all no?

0:21:16.240 --> 0:21:22.200
<v Speaker 2>On the Oh wow, we had to relive that moment.

0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:26.919
<v Speaker 2>Joe called that do you have the short version of

0:21:26.920 --> 0:21:30.080
<v Speaker 2>that handy the Joe called that the worst moment in

0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:32.359
<v Speaker 2>thirty years of working together.

0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:37.119
<v Speaker 3>Hope you are well or all no? On the something

0:21:37.119 --> 0:21:38.680
<v Speaker 3>you were trying to say, Narwals.

0:21:38.880 --> 0:21:41.439
<v Speaker 2>Something happened with my mouth. I don't remember what I

0:21:41.440 --> 0:21:41.960
<v Speaker 2>was trying to say.

0:21:42.119 --> 0:21:43.480
<v Speaker 4>You're trying to say the word alternative.

0:21:43.640 --> 0:21:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but for whatever reason, man, my tongue like swoll

0:21:46.440 --> 0:21:48.879
<v Speaker 2>to twice its normal size immediately, like I got stung

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:49.640
<v Speaker 2>by a bee or something.

0:21:49.920 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 4>Are well or all no?

0:21:52.800 --> 0:21:53.040
<v Speaker 8>On the.

0:21:55.080 --> 0:21:56.919
<v Speaker 4>You know the we're here laughing at you?

0:21:57.000 --> 0:21:58.800
<v Speaker 3>And then the amountic concern that came in on like

0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:01.679
<v Speaker 3>Facebook and Twitter, like is Jack is Jack okay, you know,

0:22:01.720 --> 0:22:03.280
<v Speaker 3>you know all the signs of like a you know.

0:22:03.280 --> 0:22:06.119
<v Speaker 4>A medical emergency. I'm like, right, thank, he's fine.

0:22:06.359 --> 0:22:06.520
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:22:06.720 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Remember years ago that woman that started talking really funny

0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:14.000
<v Speaker 2>like that she was having a stroke on camera and

0:22:14.160 --> 0:22:16.719
<v Speaker 2>I was not. But it is a little disturbing. I mean,

0:22:16.760 --> 0:22:21.439
<v Speaker 2>when you when you talk for a living for whatever reason,

0:22:21.480 --> 0:22:23.800
<v Speaker 2>if you're born with a brain that that doesn't happen

0:22:23.920 --> 0:22:27.240
<v Speaker 2>very often. It's disturbing if it happens, because you know,

0:22:27.400 --> 0:22:30.159
<v Speaker 2>some people can't do that, like if you're a if

0:22:30.200 --> 0:22:32.399
<v Speaker 2>you're a you know, if I as a politician running

0:22:32.400 --> 0:22:34.560
<v Speaker 2>for all, if you're in a debate presidential debate and

0:22:34.600 --> 0:22:36.680
<v Speaker 2>you do what I did right there? Play that again.

0:22:37.080 --> 0:22:40.159
<v Speaker 2>I hope you are well or all now on the

0:22:40.760 --> 0:22:44.680
<v Speaker 2>men that happen with Joe Biden, right, but I mean

0:22:44.880 --> 0:22:47.120
<v Speaker 2>that would get put to music and they'd be talking

0:22:47.119 --> 0:22:50.680
<v Speaker 2>about it on Jimmy Kimmel. I hope you are well

0:22:51.640 --> 0:22:54.240
<v Speaker 2>or all? No, all, my god, it almost hurts for

0:22:54.320 --> 0:22:56.119
<v Speaker 2>me to hear it because I can like feel my

0:22:56.240 --> 0:22:59.960
<v Speaker 2>mouth just oh that was rough.

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:00.879
<v Speaker 4>Well, it was funny.

0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:03.040
<v Speaker 3>Was Michael following you into the newsroom asking if you

0:23:03.080 --> 0:23:04.320
<v Speaker 3>wanted him to drive you home.

0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:11.880
<v Speaker 2>I was just concerned. Oh wow, yeah, I heard about

0:23:11.920 --> 0:23:14.639
<v Speaker 2>that yesterday from a few people. I'm okay, I think,

0:23:14.800 --> 0:23:17.520
<v Speaker 2>and although I've never done that before, if it happens

0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:19.720
<v Speaker 2>again today, I'll probably have to go see a doctor

0:23:19.760 --> 0:23:23.240
<v Speaker 2>of some sort. I hate to get into this on

0:23:23.320 --> 0:23:26.720
<v Speaker 2>a Friday, but I want to bring this up. Just see,

0:23:26.760 --> 0:23:30.639
<v Speaker 2>have your eyeballs out for it, and you can text,

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:32.880
<v Speaker 2>emailert I was about to say, call, we haven't taken

0:23:32.880 --> 0:23:35.879
<v Speaker 2>a call in years. Text or email next week if

0:23:35.920 --> 0:23:38.040
<v Speaker 2>you come across this. So the Wall Street Journal pointing

0:23:38.040 --> 0:23:42.439
<v Speaker 2>out this is their editorial board. What investors know is

0:23:42.480 --> 0:23:47.199
<v Speaker 2>that the trade war China announced overnight they're up in

0:23:47.359 --> 0:23:49.840
<v Speaker 2>They're tariffs on American goods coming into one hundred and

0:23:49.880 --> 0:23:52.520
<v Speaker 2>twenty five percent. Now, so you know you're not paying that.

0:23:53.200 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 2>But if that causes all kinds of buyers in China

0:23:56.560 --> 0:23:58.320
<v Speaker 2>to think, well, I'm not going to buy the American

0:23:58.359 --> 0:24:01.920
<v Speaker 2>good anymore. I'll buy the same version from somewhere else,

0:24:02.400 --> 0:24:04.720
<v Speaker 2>then our companies are selling a lot stuff, so that

0:24:04.960 --> 0:24:07.000
<v Speaker 2>less stuff, so that will have an effect. Also. Anyway,

0:24:07.080 --> 0:24:09.680
<v Speaker 2>let me just read this. I keep interrupting myself. What

0:24:09.720 --> 0:24:12.320
<v Speaker 2>investors know is that the trade wars far from over,

0:24:12.359 --> 0:24:15.760
<v Speaker 2>and damage persists even with the ninety day pause. The

0:24:15.760 --> 0:24:19.440
<v Speaker 2>tariffs that continue are the largest tax increase in the

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:22.840
<v Speaker 2>United States since nineteen eighty two. They're bigger than Bill

0:24:22.840 --> 0:24:26.600
<v Speaker 2>Clinton's ninety three tax increase and George HW Bush's nineteen

0:24:26.680 --> 0:24:30.640
<v Speaker 2>ninety tax increase. Taxes are antigrowth. The Wall Street Journal

0:24:30.680 --> 0:24:33.000
<v Speaker 2>is saying what a lot of people say is that

0:24:33.119 --> 0:24:37.400
<v Speaker 2>tariffs are taxes in effect, because when you say there

0:24:37.480 --> 0:24:39.880
<v Speaker 2>is a tariff of x percent on things coming from

0:24:39.880 --> 0:24:45.240
<v Speaker 2>a country, the company involved that has to pay this

0:24:45.359 --> 0:24:49.199
<v Speaker 2>tariff passes it along to the consumer because you have

0:24:49.280 --> 0:24:54.600
<v Speaker 2>no choice because you're already operating as leanly as you

0:24:54.840 --> 0:24:58.880
<v Speaker 2>possibly can if you've got any competition. So a good

0:24:59.000 --> 0:25:00.720
<v Speaker 2>chunk of it is going to be paid by us.

0:25:00.760 --> 0:25:02.480
<v Speaker 2>So the reason I wanted to throw that out there is,

0:25:03.080 --> 0:25:07.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, when when will you I start seeing these

0:25:07.160 --> 0:25:11.240
<v Speaker 2>things showing up in products that we buy, Like you

0:25:11.280 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 2>go to Amazon and pick something out and say, WHOA,

0:25:13.680 --> 0:25:16.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't remember that costing that much. Remember what inflation

0:25:16.280 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 2>was like every time you went to the grocery store

0:25:19.440 --> 0:25:22.040
<v Speaker 2>or McDonald's or whatever, and you go, WHOA, that's how

0:25:22.119 --> 0:25:24.920
<v Speaker 2>much is that going to start happening again here in

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:27.880
<v Speaker 2>the next couple of weeks with everything from China every

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:30.359
<v Speaker 2>time you go to Walmart or whatever. I I I

0:25:30.480 --> 0:25:32.840
<v Speaker 2>hope not. And if it does, what is that going

0:25:32.920 --> 0:25:36.159
<v Speaker 2>to do to Are people willing to hang with it?

0:25:36.200 --> 0:25:39.080
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we have the clip. I don't know if I

0:25:39.080 --> 0:25:44.480
<v Speaker 2>can find it quickly. It's blah blah blah blah blah.

0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:48.480
<v Speaker 2>Is him Hanson? What did he call the whole thing?

0:25:48.640 --> 0:25:51.040
<v Speaker 2>It wasn't growing pains, but it was a it was

0:25:51.080 --> 0:25:53.960
<v Speaker 2>a term sort of like that that we're going to

0:25:54.000 --> 0:25:58.840
<v Speaker 2>have to go through over the next couple of weeks.

0:25:58.880 --> 0:26:02.639
<v Speaker 2>I'll find it plane. But he had a term for

0:26:02.680 --> 0:26:05.920
<v Speaker 2>what we're gonna, what we're gonna, what this is, what

0:26:05.960 --> 0:26:09.640
<v Speaker 2>this period is going to be like. So we think

0:26:09.680 --> 0:26:11.840
<v Speaker 2>we're in very good shape. We think we're doing very

0:26:11.880 --> 0:26:13.120
<v Speaker 2>well again.

0:26:13.160 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 9>There'll be a transition cost, transition cost and transition problems,

0:26:18.359 --> 0:26:20.439
<v Speaker 9>but in the end it's going to be it's going

0:26:20.480 --> 0:26:23.239
<v Speaker 9>to be a beautiful thing. We're doing again what we

0:26:23.280 --> 0:26:28.280
<v Speaker 9>should have done many years ago. We'll let it get

0:26:28.280 --> 0:26:32.240
<v Speaker 9>out of control, and we allowed some countries to get

0:26:32.720 --> 0:26:35.720
<v Speaker 9>very big and very rich at our expense.

0:26:35.800 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not gonna can't let that happen, can't.

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:40.440
<v Speaker 9>It's not a sustainable formula.

0:26:41.240 --> 0:26:45.479
<v Speaker 2>Uh, transition costs, that's what he's calling the extra what

0:26:45.560 --> 0:26:48.879
<v Speaker 2>we'll all be paying for a while, with the theory

0:26:48.960 --> 0:26:51.639
<v Speaker 2>being his theory being that China is gonna come around,

0:26:51.680 --> 0:26:54.159
<v Speaker 2>They're going to stop screwing what this the way they have,

0:26:54.320 --> 0:26:55.959
<v Speaker 2>and then everything will go back to the way it

0:26:56.080 --> 0:26:58.760
<v Speaker 2>was and we'll have won the battle. Wall Street Journal

0:26:58.880 --> 0:27:01.120
<v Speaker 2>editorial board getting back to that quickly says, by far,

0:27:01.119 --> 0:27:03.480
<v Speaker 2>the biggest problem in the global trading system is the

0:27:03.520 --> 0:27:07.879
<v Speaker 2>abuse of free trade rules by the authoritarian regime in China.

0:27:08.160 --> 0:27:12.360
<v Speaker 2>Mister Trump's scattershot tariff policy won't solve that problem so far.

0:27:12.440 --> 0:27:14.280
<v Speaker 2>He's hurting his own cause in country more than he's

0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:17.560
<v Speaker 2>hurting Chinese Communist Party. Well, I hope they're wrong and

0:27:17.600 --> 0:27:19.399
<v Speaker 2>Trump is right. Since this is the world that we

0:27:19.440 --> 0:27:21.800
<v Speaker 2>live in. We'll all go through this together and we'll

0:27:21.800 --> 0:27:25.400
<v Speaker 2>see if this transition phase gets us to a better

0:27:25.440 --> 0:27:27.960
<v Speaker 2>place and we all think it was worth it or not.

0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:31.080
<v Speaker 2>And I think it will be pretty obvious to everyone

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:33.560
<v Speaker 2>which of those outcomes we get here. And I don't

0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:35.639
<v Speaker 2>know if this will take week, month, weeks, months or years.

0:27:35.760 --> 0:27:39.240
<v Speaker 2>It's not gonna take years, probably more like weeks or

0:27:39.320 --> 0:27:43.040
<v Speaker 2>months anyway. Corporate training seems to be a thing for

0:27:43.080 --> 0:27:45.800
<v Speaker 2>a lot of y'all. Some of these examples are hilarious.

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:49.760
<v Speaker 2>They're all more or less stupid in a waste of time.

0:27:50.080 --> 0:27:51.760
<v Speaker 2>So we'll get to some of that coming up, and

0:27:52.000 --> 0:27:53.680
<v Speaker 2>some great guests an hour too. Hope you can stick

0:27:53.680 --> 0:27:58.159
<v Speaker 2>around today. Well, listen to this.

0:27:58.320 --> 0:28:02.359
<v Speaker 6>Trump just signs an executive to make America's showers great

0:28:02.400 --> 0:28:06.480
<v Speaker 6>again with more powerful shower heads that no longer restrict

0:28:06.560 --> 0:28:09.720
<v Speaker 6>water flow. Yeah, the goodness is more powerful shower heads.

0:28:09.520 --> 0:28:11.399
<v Speaker 2>Around the way. Bad news. They're home made in China.

0:28:11.440 --> 0:28:14.560
<v Speaker 2>So I mean, that's just that we can't win. I

0:28:14.960 --> 0:28:17.280
<v Speaker 2>don't mind the joke, but I don't understand why people

0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:20.840
<v Speaker 2>mock Trump for wanting to do away with that. The

0:28:20.880 --> 0:28:25.719
<v Speaker 2>federal government shouldn't be involved in how much water pressure

0:28:25.760 --> 0:28:29.000
<v Speaker 2>you have in your shower head. That's insane. Why do

0:28:29.080 --> 0:28:31.800
<v Speaker 2>you think that's funny that he wants to get rid

0:28:31.920 --> 0:28:33.040
<v Speaker 2>of those restrictions?

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:36.840
<v Speaker 3>He should that they mocks They mock it because it

0:28:36.920 --> 0:28:39.760
<v Speaker 3>is Trump. That's the only reason this was Biden.

0:28:39.800 --> 0:28:42.680
<v Speaker 2>They'd be like, oh, yeah, there's plenty of people think

0:28:42.720 --> 0:28:44.880
<v Speaker 2>the federal government should be involved under every aspect of

0:28:44.920 --> 0:28:46.640
<v Speaker 2>your life all the time because they know better. But

0:28:46.960 --> 0:28:49.160
<v Speaker 2>it's so crazy anyway, I don't want to get a

0:28:49.200 --> 0:28:52.000
<v Speaker 2>hung up on that. I started the hour by talking

0:28:52.000 --> 0:28:54.520
<v Speaker 2>about the corporate training I had to do yesterday, once

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:58.600
<v Speaker 2>again reiterating I love my company, h and I realize

0:28:58.640 --> 0:29:00.920
<v Speaker 2>this is something you have to do. All kinds of

0:29:01.280 --> 0:29:04.680
<v Speaker 2>speaking of federal laws and ridiculousness that they make companies do.

0:29:04.760 --> 0:29:06.600
<v Speaker 2>Every company does it, so I's just thrown it out

0:29:06.640 --> 0:29:08.320
<v Speaker 2>there to those of you who also have to do

0:29:08.360 --> 0:29:12.440
<v Speaker 2>corporate training. That is a complete waste of time and productivity.

0:29:12.680 --> 0:29:15.200
<v Speaker 2>And everyone knows it at every level. That's why it

0:29:15.280 --> 0:29:18.400
<v Speaker 2>makes me insane that goes on. The employee knows it,

0:29:18.480 --> 0:29:21.320
<v Speaker 2>your boss knows it, your boss's boss knows it. Yet

0:29:21.360 --> 0:29:24.000
<v Speaker 2>we all do it makes me crazy. Anyway, We got

0:29:24.000 --> 0:29:26.640
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of texts. I work in radiology in a hospital.

0:29:26.680 --> 0:29:29.680
<v Speaker 2>I have to take a basic radiation safety thing every

0:29:29.760 --> 0:29:32.160
<v Speaker 2>year just in case I forgot everything I was taught

0:29:32.160 --> 0:29:35.520
<v Speaker 2>in college, and use every single day. The module is

0:29:35.520 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 2>the equivalent of telling an orthopedic surgeon that humans have bones.

0:29:40.880 --> 0:29:44.160
<v Speaker 2>Grocery store employees have it the worst, redundant, long, silly

0:29:44.200 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 2>training programs that last at least an hour. Every industry

0:29:48.640 --> 0:29:51.280
<v Speaker 2>thinks theirs are the worst. I'm sure yours are bad,

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:54.080
<v Speaker 2>just like ours are. They're a complete waste of time

0:29:54.200 --> 0:29:56.960
<v Speaker 2>and money, and everybody knows it, and yet we keep

0:29:57.040 --> 0:30:00.640
<v Speaker 2>doing them. A few days ago, our schoo district made

0:30:00.720 --> 0:30:02.800
<v Speaker 2>us spend thirty minutes at a faculty meeting watching a

0:30:02.880 --> 0:30:05.640
<v Speaker 2>video about the dangers of on the job indoor heat

0:30:05.680 --> 0:30:08.760
<v Speaker 2>exposure for teachers. I learned that when you're hot and thirsty,

0:30:08.760 --> 0:30:13.040
<v Speaker 2>you should drink some water. Yeah, but again, it's to

0:30:13.080 --> 0:30:16.440
<v Speaker 2>get the lawyers off your back, because if you got

0:30:16.480 --> 0:30:18.640
<v Speaker 2>woozy from being thirsty and fell and hit your head,

0:30:19.760 --> 0:30:21.280
<v Speaker 2>you could go in front of a jury full of

0:30:21.400 --> 0:30:24.000
<v Speaker 2>idiots and make the claim that I didn't know I

0:30:24.000 --> 0:30:25.960
<v Speaker 2>was supposed to drink. The school never told me. And

0:30:26.040 --> 0:30:28.719
<v Speaker 2>the school has to pay you, you know, five million dollars,

0:30:28.840 --> 0:30:30.520
<v Speaker 2>and so they have these kinds of trainings. That's what

0:30:30.640 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 2>drives it all. We've got to find our way out

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:36.600
<v Speaker 2>of this. I'm a technician in a small shop for

0:30:36.640 --> 0:30:39.640
<v Speaker 2>a large corporation. I love this one. My manager actually

0:30:39.680 --> 0:30:42.640
<v Speaker 2>takes all the mandatory training for all of us so

0:30:42.680 --> 0:30:45.640
<v Speaker 2>that we don't lose actual production time. So the manager

0:30:45.960 --> 0:30:49.600
<v Speaker 2>probably sits at a computer and just keeps placking, clicking

0:30:49.640 --> 0:30:52.720
<v Speaker 2>play play, play play play on everybody's training, so it

0:30:52.760 --> 0:30:56.080
<v Speaker 2>will show up as having taken because he understands what

0:30:56.200 --> 0:30:58.239
<v Speaker 2>a complete waste of time it is.

0:30:58.640 --> 0:31:01.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but at the end of the day, you're still

0:31:01.040 --> 0:31:03.240
<v Speaker 3>losing productivity because he's sitting there doing that.

0:31:05.120 --> 0:31:08.080
<v Speaker 2>True. I don't like this one. I hope this doesn't

0:31:08.080 --> 0:31:10.080
<v Speaker 2>come to us soon. I work for the City of

0:31:10.120 --> 0:31:13.120
<v Speaker 2>San Francisco. The mandatory videos we get now after each

0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:16.080
<v Speaker 2>segment ask you questions that if you miss just one,

0:31:16.520 --> 0:31:19.320
<v Speaker 2>you have to start the segment over because on our

0:31:19.560 --> 0:31:25.800
<v Speaker 2>all I did it again on all our tests, like

0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:28.239
<v Speaker 2>if you get fifty percent, you pass. Yeah. So I mean,

0:31:28.280 --> 0:31:29.840
<v Speaker 2>I just guess. I don't listen to any of it.

0:31:29.880 --> 0:31:31.560
<v Speaker 2>I don't read it. I've never listened to or read

0:31:31.600 --> 0:31:33.719
<v Speaker 2>any of the training. I guess on all the multiple

0:31:33.760 --> 0:31:35.560
<v Speaker 2>choice questions, and I've always passed.

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:31:38.680 --> 0:31:40.960
<v Speaker 2>I work for a large municipal water district. Yes, the

0:31:40.960 --> 0:31:43.720
<v Speaker 2>corporate trainings can be extremely ridiculous. But really gets me

0:31:44.080 --> 0:31:47.000
<v Speaker 2>is by company, they always start off with the reminder

0:31:47.000 --> 0:31:49.440
<v Speaker 2>of the group that words can be weapons and the

0:31:49.440 --> 0:31:53.719
<v Speaker 2>interest of equity, be mindful of using patriarchal terms, gender neutral,

0:31:53.760 --> 0:31:56.120
<v Speaker 2>et cetera, et cetera. The speech is always used even

0:31:56.160 --> 0:31:58.960
<v Speaker 2>when the subject matter isn't controversial in any way. It's

0:31:59.120 --> 0:32:02.719
<v Speaker 2>my numbingly idiotic and usually causes eye rolls and laughter

0:32:02.880 --> 0:32:07.080
<v Speaker 2>among the attendees. A large municipal water district and they

0:32:07.120 --> 0:32:10.480
<v Speaker 2>start their training with remember not to use patriarchal terms.

0:32:10.760 --> 0:32:14.360
<v Speaker 2>What the hell. I'm in low level data entry that

0:32:14.440 --> 0:32:16.920
<v Speaker 2>never travels, but I had to know how to not

0:32:17.000 --> 0:32:22.640
<v Speaker 2>mess with experiency reports or bribe people overseas. That's hilarious.

0:32:23.000 --> 0:32:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I like this one my corporate training. I work for

0:32:26.080 --> 0:32:29.640
<v Speaker 2>a Japanese manufacturer. I'm in the heating and air conditioning division,

0:32:29.920 --> 0:32:32.080
<v Speaker 2>but I have to take all the training about not

0:32:32.240 --> 0:32:35.440
<v Speaker 2>selling weapons to terrorists in foreign countries. It's hilarious.

0:32:35.760 --> 0:32:37.400
<v Speaker 4>I can see how I can get, you know, mixed

0:32:37.440 --> 0:32:37.800
<v Speaker 4>in there.

0:32:37.920 --> 0:32:40.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because that's what I was talking about earlier, and

0:32:40.160 --> 0:32:42.160
<v Speaker 2>how we have to be trained every year to not

0:32:42.320 --> 0:32:46.080
<v Speaker 2>go down to the dock as they unload cargo ships

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:50.000
<v Speaker 2>from other countries and pay off dock workers or something.

0:32:50.080 --> 0:32:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Hu And then you have to check. I understand not

0:32:52.920 --> 0:32:58.440
<v Speaker 2>to bribe dock workers, I promise. How does this happen

0:32:58.480 --> 0:33:02.160
<v Speaker 2>in every industry in the country. God, that's funny. How

0:33:02.240 --> 0:33:05.480
<v Speaker 2>much time I got, Michael depends on how you keep eating? Yeah,

0:33:05.840 --> 0:33:09.960
<v Speaker 2>good point. Yet two and a half do I do?

0:33:10.040 --> 0:33:11.360
<v Speaker 2>I want to get to this story and not. I'm

0:33:11.360 --> 0:33:14.120
<v Speaker 2>afraid it's going to sidetrack me. I just came across

0:33:14.160 --> 0:33:16.959
<v Speaker 2>this and I find it astounding. This is from the

0:33:17.000 --> 0:33:19.000
<v Speaker 2>New York Times. You'd think it was the New York

0:33:19.040 --> 0:33:23.800
<v Speaker 2>Post or some sort of rag that says stuff like

0:33:23.840 --> 0:33:26.800
<v Speaker 2>this is from the New York Times. The person who

0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:30.240
<v Speaker 2>died and boarded an R train subway at around eight pm.

0:33:30.240 --> 0:33:32.840
<v Speaker 2>According to law enforcement officials with knowledge of the matter,

0:33:33.200 --> 0:33:35.920
<v Speaker 2>it was unclear on Thursday win or how the person died,

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:38.760
<v Speaker 2>So somebody got on the subway eight in the evening

0:33:38.760 --> 0:33:42.080
<v Speaker 2>and died. A man entered the same train car around

0:33:42.120 --> 0:33:46.280
<v Speaker 2>eleven at the White How South Ferry station. According to

0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:49.200
<v Speaker 2>the official, within forty five minutes, the man saw the

0:33:49.240 --> 0:33:53.200
<v Speaker 2>dead man and began to rummage through his pockets. Okay,

0:33:53.240 --> 0:33:54.600
<v Speaker 2>so you go over to a guy that appears to

0:33:54.600 --> 0:33:56.400
<v Speaker 2>be passed out or dead and you start rummaging through

0:33:56.400 --> 0:33:59.120
<v Speaker 2>his pockets, that's one thing. The man then began to

0:33:59.200 --> 0:34:04.080
<v Speaker 2>have sex with the body, according to officials and documents. Okay.

0:34:04.440 --> 0:34:06.800
<v Speaker 2>The episode occurred as New York City subways have become

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:10.480
<v Speaker 2>a subject of national debate, with the Trump administration's Transportation

0:34:10.560 --> 0:34:13.960
<v Speaker 2>secretary pointing them out as examples of poor governance. They

0:34:14.000 --> 0:34:16.120
<v Speaker 2>have been on the site of several high profile random

0:34:16.120 --> 0:34:18.680
<v Speaker 2>attacks that have shocked the city, but crime dropped the

0:34:18.719 --> 0:34:20.399
<v Speaker 2>record blows in the first three months of the year,

0:34:20.440 --> 0:34:23.600
<v Speaker 2>they say. But anyway, as Byron new York The Washington

0:34:23.600 --> 0:34:25.880
<v Speaker 2>Examiner points out, sounds like the New York Times is

0:34:26.160 --> 0:34:34.240
<v Speaker 2>against subway necrophilia. How in the world are there enough

0:34:34.440 --> 0:34:39.839
<v Speaker 2>people willing to have sex with a corpse? Not only that,

0:34:40.160 --> 0:34:42.840
<v Speaker 2>you gotta be in the mood immediately and willing to

0:34:42.880 --> 0:34:45.600
<v Speaker 2>do it in public that if you come across a

0:34:45.640 --> 0:34:47.360
<v Speaker 2>dead body first, here's my chance.

0:34:48.239 --> 0:34:51.560
<v Speaker 4>I've been waiting for this my whole life found one, right.

0:34:52.360 --> 0:34:55.319
<v Speaker 2>How crazy is that? That is?

0:34:55.400 --> 0:34:55.880
<v Speaker 4>Ah?

0:34:55.960 --> 0:34:59.800
<v Speaker 2>Is that? What percentage of people that get on subways

0:35:00.200 --> 0:35:01.880
<v Speaker 2>want to have sex with a dead body? That's what

0:35:01.920 --> 0:35:06.799
<v Speaker 2>I would like to know. Thank you, Michael. Oh my god,

0:35:06.840 --> 0:35:09.080
<v Speaker 2>what a horrible story. There are more details of that

0:35:09.120 --> 0:35:10.799
<v Speaker 2>I'll have to get to later. We got some great

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:13.800
<v Speaker 2>guests an hour two that I look forward to talking

0:35:13.800 --> 0:35:16.000
<v Speaker 2>to about a bunch of important stuff, and they know

0:35:16.040 --> 0:35:17.600
<v Speaker 2>more about it than I do. If you miss a
