WEBVTT - Stiff Arm Him Right In The Beard 0:00:11.000 --> 0:00:15.240 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:19.960 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and 0:00:20.079 --> 0:00:35.720 Petty and he arms Ronget. I have a moral dilemma 0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:39.720 a few minutes ago. We'll have to discuss momentary early 0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:43.720 in the day, for it really is live from Studio 0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:47.479 C see san a dimly lit room deeper than the 0:00:47.560 --> 0:00:50.800 bowels of the Armstrong and Getty Communications compound. And hey 0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:53.840 y'all today on Tuesday, we're under the tutelage of our 0:00:53.880 --> 0:00:59.360 general manager. So many choices today. You have no idea 0:00:59.400 --> 0:01:02.240 the pressures face and choosing the general manager on a 0:01:02.320 --> 0:01:06.360 day like today where the smug Ignoramus Jimmy Kimmel comes 0:01:06.400 --> 0:01:10.280 back to TV. You've got the whole tail and all 0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:14.360 autism press conference yesterday, which was something else. You got 0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.120 all sorts of stuff going on. But we've got to 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.440 go with this our general manager. The United Nations the 0:01:20.640 --> 0:01:27.560 greatest ratio of expense to productivity in the history of mankind. Yeah, 0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:31.520 no kidding, As George Bush once called them, a meaningless 0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:36.480 debating society, which is pretty close to true, meaningless and 0:01:36.560 --> 0:01:40.720 incredibly expensive debating society. Yes, and what did you call Kimmel? 0:01:40.800 --> 0:01:46.800 That was appropriate? Smug Ignoramus, He's smug anyway. If you're 0:01:46.959 --> 0:01:52.360 like a Douglas Murray type, Doug is a little smug. 0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.320 I've been accused of smugging this myself, But Douglas Murray's brilliant, 0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:03.800 absolutely brilliant. If you're Neil Ferguson, you're a little smug. Okay, 0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:06.840 I get it, I get it. If you're Jimmy Kimmel, 0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:10.760 your dumb as a dog. You don't know anything about anything. 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:12.840 You just got a few talking points you saw on 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:16.280 Blue Sky. And yet he comes off like the master 0:02:16.400 --> 0:02:20.800 of all, you know, the subtlety of thought. Hey, before 0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:24.520 I get to my dilemma, I'll never understand why the 0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:27.760 late night talk shows get so much conversation at all. 0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:31.040 I was gonna trust it off yesterdayar it really is. 0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:33.200 It's a hangover from when those shows matter. I was 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:35.560 gonna try to see if Chat and GPT could come 0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:37.800 up with me for a list of other shows that 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.040 have an audience of a million. I'll bet there are 0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.480 fifty shows with an audience the same size that you've 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:47.040 never even heard the name, let alone watched. That would 0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.120 be amusing yeah, I'll bet you're right, because it's like 0:02:49.160 --> 0:02:51.360 a million people that watch each of those shows, so 0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:55.240 whipping cares. I got bad news for you, America. Johnny 0:02:55.240 --> 0:02:59.000 Carson is passed and will not return. Letterman still kicking, 0:02:59.120 --> 0:03:03.040 but will not right. I don't know. If it's a 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.760 moral dilemma, if it's a courage dilemma, I don't know. 0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:09.040 But anyway, So, there was a street person standing at 0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:10.920 the front door of the building when I was walking in. 0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.000 If that always gets your day off to him still 0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:17.200 there a good adrenaline soaked start. Well, he was right 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:19.480 at there at the front door, and I thought, I'm 0:03:19.480 --> 0:03:21.480 gonna open the door and he's gonna follow me in? 0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:24.600 Is it my job to push him back out? Do 0:03:24.720 --> 0:03:26.680 I let him walk in the building where he then 0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:29.440 has free run of the entire building? Almost certainly a 0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.519 crazed drug addict. I mean, what am I supposed to 0:03:32.600 --> 0:03:35.640 do here? Luckily he turned away when I went in 0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:37.960 the door because I don't know, his dog was talking 0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:41.720 to him or whatever, and he got distracted. But would 0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:43.640 what would you do? Would you let him follow you in? 0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.160 I mean, it's not well, you're shaping your head, Michael. 0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:49.680 What would you do. I agree we shouldn't let him 0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:51.320 come in, But what would you do? Are you gonna say, 0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:53.680 I'm sorry, sir, you can't come in Like you're in 0:03:53.800 --> 0:03:59.480 charge of security? Do you have an appointment? I once 0:03:59.520 --> 0:04:03.360 asked a guy who was making it clear that he 0:04:03.400 --> 0:04:04.760 was going to follow me in because I had a 0:04:04.840 --> 0:04:08.200 key fob and he didn't, you know, prior to the 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.960 crackadaw on, And I said, do you have a reason 0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.920 to be in the building or something like that, and 0:04:14.040 --> 0:04:16.479 he said, yeah, I'm with the crew remodeling up on 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:18.279 the fourth floor. Okay, but he probably didn't look like 0:04:18.320 --> 0:04:22.760 a crazed street person. Good point. Yeah, he was definitely scruffy, 0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:26.279 but kind of you know, working man scruffy, right, yeah, 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:28.919 construction guy. I would I would I have said that 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:31.720 to people. Well, And he had the look of you 0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:34.719 could have a conversation with right. This guy had the 0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:38.520 look of there's no conversation to be had, right. Uh, Katie, 0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:40.800 you duck in and you hold the door closed until 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.839 it clicked. I shoulder, That magnetic thing kicks back in shoulder. 0:04:44.680 --> 0:04:47.200 I pulled the door closed. Hang on a stiff farm. 0:04:49.200 --> 0:04:52.040 I've been in this exact situation, and I walked around 0:04:52.080 --> 0:04:54.200 the building to the other door just to avoid it. 0:04:54.520 --> 0:04:57.520 You know, that's not a bad idea, right there, that's 0:04:57.520 --> 0:04:59.360 not a bad I read there. I sniff arm him 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:04.440 right in the beer, right right, snap his head back. 0:05:04.560 --> 0:05:06.480 I did the thing I often do when I approach 0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:08.360 a street person. I taped. Okay, I do have my 0:05:08.440 --> 0:05:10.080 knife with me if I end up in a fight 0:05:10.160 --> 0:05:12.799 for my life, because that's just part of the world 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:17.240 we've created where you have to semi regularly wonder. I 0:05:17.279 --> 0:05:18.680 wonder if I'm about to be in a fight for 0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.720 my life because you get to just hang around as 0:05:21.720 --> 0:05:25.440 a crazy person. Bums and junkies everywhere in America. You 0:05:25.480 --> 0:05:28.360 can have this too. Vote Kevin Newsom at twenty eight 0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:33.039 No kidding, all right, So Hanson, what would you do? 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.159 You let him follow you in or do you become 0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:41.479 you know, I'm the cop, Hanson's cop all the way 0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:44.320 you've been spending all that time in a gym. Come 0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:47.719 on now, just don't feel like report of my job 0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:51.560 description to fight my way in the door and keep 0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:56.640 pop and keep junkies out right, Hanson suggested a lake 0:05:56.760 --> 0:05:59.960 kick to the back of the thigh. Oh yeah, sweeping 0:06:00.160 --> 0:06:02.880 leg kick one of these. Yeah exactly. Oh yeah, that's 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:08.159 a good maneuver. See I had to let him in 0:06:08.160 --> 0:06:10.880 and put in a put him in a competing radio station, 0:06:11.120 --> 0:06:13.159 so just there you go. Put him in the other studio. 0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:17.320 I told him, here, press that button that turns the 0:06:17.440 --> 0:06:20.120 mic on. Hef the breeze is down the hall, Go 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:24.440 in there and say whatever you want to those people. Ye. Yeah, 0:06:24.560 --> 0:06:26.520 I don't know. I probably wouldn't have let him follow 0:06:26.600 --> 0:06:29.520 me in, just out of my own safety. But right, 0:06:30.120 --> 0:06:32.000 so that's enough of that. Trump is speaking at the 0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:36.720 UN today. Who knows what he will say and if 0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:39.400 it makes any difference whatsoever. I don't think it's good 0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:41.720 news that all these countries have joined in with there 0:06:41.760 --> 0:06:44.599 needs to be a Palestinian state. It certainly gives Israel 0:06:44.680 --> 0:06:49.240 less cover in coming days, months, and years anytime they're 0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.000 trying to do anything if the whole world says, hey, 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:56.040 there's supposed to be a country there, right. I read 0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:58.920 some great analysis. I wish I'd come up with this myself, 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.880 but it it made it clear that all of these 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:05.760 recognitions of the Palestinian state, whatever the hell that means, 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:10.720 is purely a gesture of disapproval toward Israel. It is 0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:15.080 purely a punishment of Israel because the Macrones of the world, 0:07:15.160 --> 0:07:18.400 the keer Starmer's whatever halfwit is in charge of Canada 0:07:18.520 --> 0:07:23.080 right now, they know there's no Palestinian state and aren't 0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:29.560 going to be. It is a truly and merely symbolic gesture. Yeah, 0:07:29.640 --> 0:07:34.280 I'd say so. Like all the questions you had yesterday, Okay, uh, 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:37.720 what are the boundaries? What's the government? 0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:38.480 Uh? 0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:44.040 What are their laws? Tell me about this Palestinian state 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:50.280 of yours? WHOA well, when do you suggest it starts? Well? Right, yeah, 0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:54.560 And it's it's more than a little disturbing that world leaders, 0:07:54.600 --> 0:08:00.600 including our feckless allies, engage in that sort of foolish 0:08:01.120 --> 0:08:03.320 isn't aren't there you know, I'm asking the good folks. 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:08.280 Aren't there enough real problems out there without people engaging 0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:13.480 in that sort of useless cynical symbolism. Well, part of 0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:16.000 it is just to buy off their own Muslim populations 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:19.280 and their own progressive left, just to try to neutralize 0:08:19.320 --> 0:08:21.680 that to whatever extent they can. But I tell you what, 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:26.840 you know, whether in life are in politics, you compromise 0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:31.080 your principles to buy off you know, one constituency or 0:08:31.120 --> 0:08:35.199 another enough and you end up putting no principles. A 0:08:35.240 --> 0:08:37.440 little bit later, I took in a podcast yesterday with 0:08:37.600 --> 0:08:40.480 a person who is an expert and written a book 0:08:40.520 --> 0:08:49.960 about your mass shooters, assassin type people that do the 0:08:50.040 --> 0:08:53.760 high profile, spectacular killings of themselves and others, and it's 0:08:53.840 --> 0:08:55.520 what it's worth. I ran into the same thing. I 0:08:55.520 --> 0:08:59.000 found it fascinating. Yeh, yeah, I'd say so. So we'll 0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:01.319 take a look at that fits in with, you know, 0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:05.760 some of the events that have happened in recent weeks. Absolutely. Yeah, 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:07.960 I'm anxious to hear your your favorite parts of it 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.680 are the most intriguing parts to you, because again I 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:14.400 thought it was super insightful. And there's one other thing 0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:16.160 I wanted to tease. I don't remember. It was Keith 0:09:16.160 --> 0:09:19.560 Oberman's an a hole. But that's not really new news. No, 0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:24.960 that's not a tease. In addition to what he said 0:09:25.040 --> 0:09:27.240 last week, Keith Oberman, he used to have a very 0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:29.920 highly rated show on MSNBC. Okay, we'll get into that 0:09:29.960 --> 0:09:35.640 more later. Uh. The the biggest carrier of Kimmel affiliates 0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:39.000 says they're not gonna air Kimmel the Second hasn't made 0:09:39.000 --> 0:09:44.160 a choice yet, haven't hasn't publicized that choice yet, hasn't 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:48.400 publicized it. That's an excellent distinction. But so we'll see 0:09:48.400 --> 0:09:50.280 how that plays out throughout the day. Lots of stuff 0:09:50.320 --> 0:09:52.680 on the way, Katie's headlines on the way. Next, here's 0:09:52.720 --> 0:10:00.840 our text line four one five nine five KFTC. Holy Now, 0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:03.120 I don't know if I'm stealing a headline from you, Katie. 0:10:03.120 --> 0:10:06.800 This is breaking news. Swatting hoaxes have led Secret Service 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:11.080 agents as to three hundred servers capable of crippling New 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:16.120 York City's cell phone system. That news is just breaking. 0:10:16.240 --> 0:10:19.920 That sounds pretty damned interesting to me. Oh boy, well 0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:23.959 that's super great. I'm in the process of shipping all 0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.080 my guitars to my son in case I die in 0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:30.040 FCC prison because you failed to officially start the show. Yeah, 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:33.160 way to go, Jack, last segment. Yeah, thanks a lot. Trump. 0:10:34.160 --> 0:10:36.640 The FCC is on the war path, and you jab 0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:39.960 them in the eye. Well in a jab the junkie 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.480 in the eye, but you jabbed the FCC in the eye. 0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:48.600 And the show. Yeah, Katie open to start a family 0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:50.760 and she's going to be an FCC Chaiels. Yeah, I 0:10:50.760 --> 0:10:52.240 think I think only I go to prison. So I 0:10:52.280 --> 0:10:54.280 think you're on the hook, off the hook, we can 0:10:54.520 --> 0:10:56.439 we'll justify against you. We could do it now. I'm 0:10:56.480 --> 0:11:00.199 Jack Armstrong, He's Jo Getti on this. It is Twoday day, 0:11:00.200 --> 0:11:02.680 September twenty third, the year twenty twenty five or Armstrong 0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.600 and getting and we approve of this program. All right, 0:11:04.679 --> 0:11:07.120 let's begin the show officially according to SEC rules. Rags 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:07.600 at Mark. 0:11:07.760 --> 0:11:08.560 Yeah, Brian. 0:11:09.840 --> 0:11:13.160 Profession No, No, I said, no, not you you're cenn 0:11:13.200 --> 0:11:15.840 you effect this Go ahead, Brian, I want to go 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:19.280 back to there you go as part of the press 0:11:19.280 --> 0:11:21.240 conference just day around tailand oh, I think in that 0:11:21.280 --> 0:11:24.040 big announcement we'll play a little bit of that. Trump says, 0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:29.600 don't take it. It's not worth the risk. Even if 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:32.520 RFK Junior said, well, in these specific certain sense, you 0:11:32.520 --> 0:11:34.800 shouldn't take it, and Trump said, I don't see why 0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.120 the point of taking the risk because Trump's like an 0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.640 anti He doesn't take He doesn't no caffeine, no booze, 0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:43.200 no smoking. I don't think he takes medicine either, if 0:11:43.240 --> 0:11:45.160 he can avoid it. It's one of those people. Yeah, 0:11:45.240 --> 0:11:49.320 he asked, McDonald's just mc donalds. Yeah, right, hell's not Yeah, 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:52.040 all of his advisors behind him were like, we didn't 0:11:52.160 --> 0:11:56.559 say that that. No, oh boy, about the tail and 0:11:56.640 --> 0:12:00.680 all thing. All right, but I think it'll come and go. Well, 0:12:00.679 --> 0:12:02.560 I don't know. We can talk about it later. There 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:04.160 will be a fair number of women who are afraid 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.800 to take any aced of minafin product during pregnancy because 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:12.040 of that. Consult your doctor. Toughen out. That's what he said, 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:17.000 toughen out. Oh boy, it's not quite anyway. Let's figure 0:12:17.000 --> 0:12:19.160 out who's reporting what. It's the lead story with Katie Green. 0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.400 Katie alrighty guys, starting with The New York Times, Jimmy 0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:25.040 Kimmel's show to return to ABC tonight. 0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:31.200 You, Oh, America rejoices. You know, it's like Trump lashing 0:12:31.240 --> 0:12:33.720 out at CNN speaking of things that have no real 0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:37.839 significance anymore. Just lash out at them. Don't like swatting a. 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:43.480 Mosquito speaking of CNN from CNN. US is blocking Iranian 0:12:43.520 --> 0:12:47.240 diplomats in United States from shopping at Costco. 0:12:47.600 --> 0:12:50.040 There you go, right, huh, that's right, you're gonna have 0:12:50.120 --> 0:12:54.439 to pay. You can't buy in bulk, are right? All right? 0:12:55.800 --> 0:12:57.920 You call me the Great Satan. You can't shop in 0:12:57.960 --> 0:13:02.920 our stupendous superstores. Take that from the Washington Post. 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:07.439 Drone flights shut down airports in Denmark and Norway as 0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:09.280 anxiety over Russia sores. 0:13:10.760 --> 0:13:15.840 Yeah, like big nasty military, well piloted drones, couple of 0:13:15.840 --> 0:13:19.160 major airports in northern Europe. Wow, I didn't know that. Okay, 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:22.120 that's a heck of a story from NBC. 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:26.440 Trump to address un AS divisions with allies deep in 0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:28.520 over Palestinian statehood. 0:13:29.520 --> 0:13:32.440 Yeah. Boy, for all the attention that that's going to 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:37.960 get today, that question of Russia pushing NATO further and 0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:40.960 further every day, That's that's the where the decision needs 0:13:41.000 --> 0:13:42.920 to be made. That's where they need to get together 0:13:42.960 --> 0:13:44.480 in corners and figure out what they're going to do. 0:13:45.520 --> 0:13:48.520 And I still maintain that most of these statements of 0:13:48.600 --> 0:13:51.480 solidarity with the Palestinian state are just trying to buy 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:55.280 off the Muslim populations and the progressive left in the 0:13:55.320 --> 0:14:00.640 various countries England, France, Canada, whatever from US say today. 0:14:01.120 --> 0:14:03.240 White House says, TikTok. 0:14:02.920 --> 0:14:06.040 Reaches deal to keep operating in the United States under 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:07.360 American ownership. 0:14:07.960 --> 0:14:10.200 Okay, it's all about the algorithm. Is the algorithm going 0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:10.880 to be the same or Not. 0:14:13.240 --> 0:14:18.320 From the Washington Times, intelligence chief warns of Chinese threats 0:14:18.360 --> 0:14:19.040 in space. 0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:23.640 Their modernization pace is alarming. Ooh boy, what are you 0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:25.520 trying to do to me today? Give me a heart attack. 0:14:27.040 --> 0:14:30.480 China attacking on every front that can think of. Wake up, America, 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.520 wake up and smell the soy sauce. 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:40.160 From the New York Post, Connecticut said ban first cousin marriages, 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:43.960 which are still legal in at least sixteen states. 0:14:46.680 --> 0:14:49.360 You know, nobody's getting married at all or having sex, 0:14:49.480 --> 0:14:55.760 So go ahead. Eaden's second cousins are getting married. I'm 0:14:55.760 --> 0:14:57.800 gonna have to dig into that. Send me that story, Katie, 0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:01.720 because I'm just curious as to why, why, now, why 0:15:01.720 --> 0:15:03.640 did Connecticut all of a sudden to say, damn it, 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:07.800 that's it. Well, maybe not looking at birth rates and thinking, 0:15:08.080 --> 0:15:10.800 you know, unless it's clearly a horrible idea, let's just 0:15:11.080 --> 0:15:13.280 let's not put up any barriers the family. 0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:20.360 Starting from study fines, college students' test scores soared after 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:21.240 chat GPT. 0:15:21.840 --> 0:15:29.080 They're writing not so much. Okay, that's pretty interesting. Yeah, 0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:31.680 I was reading about a subculture of college students. High 0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:33.560 school students too or refuse to use it at all. 0:15:33.920 --> 0:15:38.080 They insist on learning the old school way, and they're 0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:40.040 taking on a hell of a challenge. They're a fairly 0:15:40.080 --> 0:15:42.520 small minority, I guess, but they will run the world. 0:15:45.000 --> 0:15:49.720 And finally, from the Babylon b more winning, Trump orders 0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:53.920 bombing of ship smuggling thirty thousand kilos of pumpkin spice 0:15:54.040 --> 0:15:55.120 into the United States. 0:15:58.120 --> 0:16:00.640 I had ending up for Americans against that bully. I 0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:02.640 have it out with that flavor right now. I can't. 0:16:02.720 --> 0:16:08.000 It's everywhere and it's driving me crazy already. Yeah, so 0:16:09.080 --> 0:16:11.400 you mentioned in chat GPT. I was big on that 0:16:11.480 --> 0:16:13.320 for a while and I still am. So I've got 0:16:13.560 --> 0:16:18.800 chat GPT, Claude and Grock now that I compare every 0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:21.960 question with I should get Gemini I on there and 0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.880 see who I like the best. He's one of my favorite. 0:16:24.880 --> 0:16:27.360 Pundits said they like Claude the best, so I was 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:31.200 trying that out. They are all subtly different. They're definitely 0:16:31.200 --> 0:16:36.200 different around copyright stuff. Like I was doing some research 0:16:36.240 --> 0:16:39.600 on art that I was talking to somebody about well 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:42.080 last night, and a couple of them will not give 0:16:42.120 --> 0:16:44.680 you the image. I'm sorry, that's copyrighted. We can't show 0:16:44.720 --> 0:16:46.960 you that. Whereas chat GPT is like, yeah, here's eight 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:49.400 different versions. So I'm you know, it just just shows 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.760 you how there's the rules are all over the place 0:16:51.800 --> 0:16:54.720 on this stuff. I'm a computer. I don't need a lawyer. 0:16:54.760 --> 0:16:57.240 I show you anything you want. Yeah. Speaking of which, 0:16:57.360 --> 0:17:03.040 the copy shop employee you refuse to print a Charlie 0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:06.280 Kirk poster and got fired. Isn't that just like the 0:17:06.400 --> 0:17:09.840 Denver baker who wouldn't make gay cupcakes or what have you. 0:17:10.400 --> 0:17:12.560 We've had people emailing about that. I would love to 0:17:12.600 --> 0:17:14.920 talk about that. Why it is different? Okay, cool, Well 0:17:14.920 --> 0:17:16.760 we'll do that next and a whole bunch of other stuff. 0:17:16.760 --> 0:17:18.159 It's going to be a pretty big news day, So 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:22.840 I hope you can stick around. Armstrong and Getty. 0:17:24.440 --> 0:17:28.520 That campaign that you all launched pretending that you were 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:34.840 going to cancel Hulu while secretly racing through four seasons 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:39.320 of only murders in the building. I really was congratulations, 0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:43.000 wasn't it? Wasn't it interesting to try and figure out 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:46.600 all the tentacles Disney has in your daily life. It's 0:17:46.640 --> 0:17:50.680 one thing to swear off cruises, but the Avengers. 0:17:50.840 --> 0:17:53.800 Nah, how is. 0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:56.080 It possible that by getting rid of one company? I 0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:59.639 can't watch Winnie the Pooh or Monday Night Football. 0:18:02.480 --> 0:18:04.119 That is pretty funny when you think about now, oh, 0:18:04.160 --> 0:18:07.000 I'm gonna boycott Disney. Oh are you if you looked 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:10.920 into what that means? Right? Why were they gonna boycott 0:18:10.960 --> 0:18:16.040 Disney because canceled Kimmel? All right? Yeah, that was the 0:18:16.119 --> 0:18:18.760 hottest story among back crowd for the last week. So 0:18:18.800 --> 0:18:22.600 people were, so, you're gonna cancel your Hulu your Disney trip, 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:26.400 not watch the Avengers or Monday Night Football or yeah, 0:18:26.480 --> 0:18:29.800 that's his point. You got a boycott Disney, A tiny 0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:34.840 flash in a stupid pan. You know, you probably don't 0:18:34.840 --> 0:18:37.400 remember this. A couple of years ago, I came across 0:18:37.520 --> 0:18:41.320 a really good comprehensive chart. I guess it was of 0:18:41.880 --> 0:18:46.440 Disney Corporation and it's holdings, and as I was describing 0:18:46.480 --> 0:18:52.600 at the time, it makes Exxon or GM look like 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:57.199 your corner coffee shop. It is all the stuff, you know, 0:18:58.359 --> 0:19:00.679 lots of media stuff is John Store was pointing out 0:19:00.760 --> 0:19:05.760 that you didn't realize hotels all in conference centers all 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:09.840 over the world branded Disney and many not branded Disney. 0:19:10.280 --> 0:19:16.920 MANU factoring just accounting processing, just like they have their 0:19:17.160 --> 0:19:20.359 The mouse is not a mouse he's an eight hundred 0:19:20.400 --> 0:19:27.640 pound gorilla, giant soul crushing just calculating corporation. The fact 0:19:27.680 --> 0:19:29.960 that they've still got the image of facts the happiest 0:19:29.960 --> 0:19:32.879 pleasure on earth come with your smile at kids is 0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:35.720 really quite an accomplishment. You almost have to admire it. 0:19:35.840 --> 0:19:39.040 That's right. I'm a pretty big effing deal. Move out 0:19:39.040 --> 0:19:43.120 of the way. Oh crush you. I I crushed goofy. 0:19:44.160 --> 0:19:45.800 You don't hear much from him anymore? 0:19:45.880 --> 0:19:46.320 Do Yeah? 0:19:46.760 --> 0:19:51.080 Jeez? Put his head and device. I got a follow 0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.879 up on the banning marriages among first cousins in Connecticut. 0:19:55.000 --> 0:19:57.520 Gotta follow on that story. Didn't see that coming from 0:19:57.560 --> 0:20:00.600 one angle of the controversy. That actually what makes sense 0:20:00.600 --> 0:20:04.920 to me. Why would you ban gay first cousins from 0:20:04.960 --> 0:20:07.880 getting married. It's all about having kids, So I can't 0:20:07.920 --> 0:20:09.719 a couple of dudes who are first cousins who fall 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:12.439 in love with each other a little weird, uh, decided 0:20:12.480 --> 0:20:16.680 to get married. Why not make Thanksgiving dinner a little uncomfortable. 0:20:16.760 --> 0:20:19.879 That's where the controversy comes in. So anyway, more on 0:20:19.960 --> 0:20:23.359 that and a whole bunch of other stuff later. Wow. Okay, So, 0:20:23.520 --> 0:20:26.560 speaking of controversies, I found this very interesting, particularly because 0:20:26.600 --> 0:20:28.919 we got a couple of females asking about it. Uh. 0:20:29.520 --> 0:20:34.359 You remember the Colorado bake shop who refused to make 0:20:34.400 --> 0:20:39.439 a gag for a gay wedding, And there have been 0:20:39.480 --> 0:20:41.680 a couple other cases like this. There was a giant 0:20:41.760 --> 0:20:45.400 Supreme Court ruling, right and which what did they rule 0:20:45.480 --> 0:20:49.120 that he could say no to making the cake? Yeah? Absolutely, yeah, 0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:52.000 And I'm getting to that it was made a huge 0:20:52.040 --> 0:20:54.840 cause by the left who was screaming no, it's discrimination, 0:20:55.280 --> 0:21:00.000 and what the Supreme Court decided quite correctly in my opinion, 0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:02.240 And I don't have the decisions in front of me, 0:21:02.280 --> 0:21:04.520 So forgive me if my paraphrasing is a little off, 0:21:04.640 --> 0:21:09.400 actual attorneys, But if you are asking somebody to engage 0:21:09.640 --> 0:21:16.919 in create the creative arts, an act of sell of 0:21:17.040 --> 0:21:21.199 expression and creation, as opposed to say, pressing go on 0:21:21.240 --> 0:21:27.240 a copy machine, they cannot be compelled to engage in 0:21:27.280 --> 0:21:31.119 that speech because compelled speech is as bad as censored speech. 0:21:31.640 --> 0:21:36.400 So you cannot force me to write a song or well, 0:21:36.440 --> 0:21:39.080 you cannot compel me to agree to write a song 0:21:39.560 --> 0:21:43.960 zorin mum, danmi will save New York. I won't do it. 0:21:44.160 --> 0:21:46.840 I won't take money for it. I won't create that. 0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:52.080 And that's good because the First Amendment protects you against 0:21:52.119 --> 0:21:55.040 compel spe But you couldn't say I won't sell you 0:21:55.720 --> 0:22:00.160 this cardboard to make signs, because that's a commodity. It's 0:22:00.200 --> 0:22:04.240 not a creative expression. So you got this case in Kalamazoo, Michigan, 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:09.080 one of our more amusingly named cities in America. Kalamazoo. 0:22:10.080 --> 0:22:12.119 Here's this twenty one year old duty. He's the head 0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:15.119 of the Kalamazoo Young Republicans. He's running errands, getting ready 0:22:15.160 --> 0:22:18.600 for a vigil honoring Charlie Kirk. One of his stops 0:22:18.760 --> 0:22:21.840 was at his local office depot to print a poster 0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:25.440 that was a picture of Charlie in black and white 0:22:25.440 --> 0:22:29.400 and said the legendary Charlie Kirk nineteen ninety three twenty five. 0:22:31.000 --> 0:22:36.080 And some folks there at the home depot refused to 0:22:36.160 --> 0:22:42.320 print it, calling it propaganda. Okay, so two and a 0:22:42.320 --> 0:22:45.199 home depot fired the employees initiative of public apology. So 0:22:45.240 --> 0:22:47.879 there are two levels of two questions here. One is 0:22:47.920 --> 0:22:49.960 the first time men, sure they did, I'm sure they've 0:22:49.960 --> 0:22:53.879 got Hey, just if somebody comes in and wants to 0:22:53.880 --> 0:22:56.479 make just make the freaking copy and send them up 0:22:56.480 --> 0:23:00.119 a Dorria, freaking morh, nobody cares what you think, and 0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:03.399 concluding me, I think you are go go. So anyway, 0:23:03.560 --> 0:23:06.320 there's two questions here. The first one is the First 0:23:06.359 --> 0:23:08.800 Amendment question, which I think I've more or less dealt with. 0:23:09.440 --> 0:23:12.800 Pressing go on copy machine is not the same as 0:23:13.160 --> 0:23:18.440 painting a portrait, writing a song, painstakingly decorating a cake, 0:23:18.760 --> 0:23:22.959 which is an artistic expression. And the second question is, 0:23:23.080 --> 0:23:25.920 and there are people on the left saying, oh, you conservatives, 0:23:25.960 --> 0:23:28.840 you're defending the baker, blah blah blah. But no, are 0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:31.080 these poor guys you can fire from the home people. No. 0:23:31.200 --> 0:23:35.760 The second question is does a giant corporation must they 0:23:36.520 --> 0:23:41.399 employ jackasses? We will say, I'm not hitting go on 0:23:41.480 --> 0:23:44.159 this printer couse, I don't like your politics. It's a 0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:50.879 completely different question. I would suggest that a bakery that's 0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:54.280 not a owned and operated by the cake decorator. But 0:23:54.320 --> 0:23:56.600 if it's some big industrial bakery, I'm working for one 0:23:56.600 --> 0:23:58.800 of the big grocery stores that also does cake decorator. 0:23:58.840 --> 0:24:03.840 Costco does, don't they anyway? Uh? If I'm a cake 0:24:03.880 --> 0:24:07.800 decorator for Costco and I say, well, sorry, not going 0:24:07.840 --> 0:24:11.120
