WEBVTT - Monkey Attack! 0:00:01.780 --> 0:00:05.600 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio at the 0:00:05.660 --> 0:00:07.640 George Washington Broadcast Center. 0:00:07.700 --> 0:00:11.940 Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty. Armstrong and Getty. And now, 0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:23.169 here's Armstrong and Getty. Oh, it's a brand new week. 0:00:23.230 --> 0:00:27.450 How exciting is that? Oh, boy. Man, anything could happen 0:00:27.470 --> 0:00:27.910 this week. 0:00:28.350 --> 0:00:30.750 Think of all the great things that could happen this week. 0:00:32.740 --> 0:00:35.850 Or all the horrible things that could happen this week. 0:00:37.210 --> 0:00:38.570 I'm betting on the latter. 0:00:39.490 --> 0:00:42.170 You worked so hard to get your life all set up, 0:00:42.490 --> 0:00:43.769 and then this week comes along. 0:00:44.810 --> 0:00:53.300 Monkey attack. The worst possible development. Live from Studio C. C, senor. 0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:55.440 A dimly lit room deeper than the bowels of the 0:00:55.500 --> 0:00:59.440 Armstrong and Getty community. 0:00:59.720 --> 0:01:04.780 This is disturbing. Hold on a second. Some liquid. Do 0:01:04.860 --> 0:01:09.700 I have some liquid? Uh-oh. He's grabbed a mystery liquid. 0:01:09.819 --> 0:01:10.699 He's swinging it down. 0:01:10.840 --> 0:01:11.220 Okay. 0:01:11.520 --> 0:01:15.940 This is kind of disgusting. Is that Friday's coffee? Oh, no. No, no, no, no, no. 0:01:15.959 --> 0:01:17.640 I think that's for cleaning floors. No, no, no, no, no. 0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:21.399 What's disgusting is while I was talking, I became aware 0:01:21.459 --> 0:01:23.420 of a foreign object in my mouth. 0:01:23.440 --> 0:01:24.020 Oh, boy. 0:01:24.060 --> 0:01:27.770 Some sort of food item had dislodged itself from somewhere. 0:01:27.890 --> 0:01:29.610 That's why. And now you're telling us. 0:01:29.990 --> 0:01:35.350 And I have not eaten anything today. So this would 0:01:35.370 --> 0:01:38.950 be something from Sunday. that was floating around in there. 0:01:38.970 --> 0:01:42.979 All right, all right, all right. I found that off-putting. Oh, 0:01:43.020 --> 0:01:44.940 my Lord, we all find it off-putting. I think everybody 0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:45.280 else does. 0:01:45.300 --> 0:01:45.840 Yeah, me too. 0:01:45.860 --> 0:01:48.740 Yeah, thank you. So that's why I had to stop 0:01:48.820 --> 0:01:50.620 and get a little liquid there. Good God, he's a monster. 0:01:50.640 --> 0:01:55.750 Well, so today we're toiling under the title of the show. 0:01:56.090 --> 0:02:00.150 French socialists angered by the results of socialism demand more socialism. 0:02:01.020 --> 0:02:03.800 Or if you prefer this headline, American media pretends the 0:02:03.840 --> 0:02:08.240 above headline isn't plainly true. And from what I understand, 0:02:08.500 --> 0:02:11.260 European media also, as I was listening to one of 0:02:11.280 --> 0:02:15.070 my favorite podcast Trigonometry over the weekend, they say it's 0:02:15.110 --> 0:02:19.730 just getting no coverage in British press, for instance. This 0:02:19.830 --> 0:02:24.640 is one of the all-time, I think, giant stories to 0:02:24.980 --> 0:02:29.880 lack of coverage ratios. I remember seeing the riots in 0:02:29.960 --> 0:02:35.020 France over the weekend were unbelievable. Biggest riots they've had 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:38.859 since May 68 when they almost lost the country. And 0:02:39.060 --> 0:02:45.490 it got almost zero news coverage. I mean, on many newscasts, nothing. 0:02:46.090 --> 0:02:47.790 And then the newscasts where they did cover is that 0:02:48.210 --> 0:02:50.390 rioting in France continues. 0:02:50.750 --> 0:02:53.490 And students demand better conditions in their schools. 0:02:53.530 --> 0:02:56.089 And they show some shouting in other news. And then 0:02:56.330 --> 0:03:02.540 it's like a two-second story. And it's unbelievable. They had many, many, 0:03:02.660 --> 0:03:09.299 many buildings destroyed. Thousands of cops injured. It's just incredible. 0:03:09.940 --> 0:03:12.940 And for instance, I've got the New York Times coverage 0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:15.900 of it, which as usual has five people working on 0:03:15.940 --> 0:03:21.760 it and very, very nice writing and very professional, blah, blah, blah. 0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:27.370 But they completely miss all of the truths in the story. 0:03:28.150 --> 0:03:33.190 The blindness, whether it's willful or ignorance or ideological blindness, 0:03:33.310 --> 0:03:36.589 I don't know. It is astonishing the extent to which 0:03:36.610 --> 0:03:39.160 they've missed the point. which we will explain to you 0:03:39.390 --> 0:03:43.430 in precise detail. And it's not difficult to understand at 0:03:43.570 --> 0:03:45.730 all what's going on there. You know, I gave you 0:03:45.750 --> 0:03:48.290 half of it. The other half is political, like directly 0:03:48.470 --> 0:03:54.730 electoral politics, political. But it's absolutely comprehensible exactly what's going 0:03:54.790 --> 0:03:57.510 on there. And the American media and European are willfully 0:03:57.530 --> 0:03:57.990 blind to it. 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:02.830 Man, that one beautiful building from the 1880s that got 0:04:02.970 --> 0:04:06.710 burnt down. It survived both world wars, being bombed by 0:04:06.790 --> 0:04:10.460 Germans and all these different things, but couldn't survive the 0:04:10.750 --> 0:04:11.760 fall of socialism. 0:04:12.920 --> 0:04:16.960 Islamists and communists and looters, right? Man, and just. 0:04:18.290 --> 0:04:20.450 Twitter was about the only place, from what I understand, 0:04:20.470 --> 0:04:22.409 that you could find any news coverage on the thing. 0:04:22.450 --> 0:04:24.030 So I was taking it in quite a bit over 0:04:24.050 --> 0:04:25.940 the weekend there. But, yeah, we will talk about it 0:04:25.950 --> 0:04:30.520 more later. There's an O.J. Simpson development, which you don't 0:04:30.580 --> 0:04:32.700 expect out of nowhere. New York Times wasn't big on 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:33.500 that yesterday. 0:04:33.520 --> 0:04:36.840 Has he risen from the dead to kill more? Now, 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:37.950 that would be a story. No, this guy.... 0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:46.030 Joseph Joy Ippolito, forget about it, who's emerged, this drug 0:04:46.070 --> 0:04:50.870 trafficker who very well may have helped O.J. with the murders, 0:04:51.870 --> 0:04:54.270 came home that night to his brother's house, blood on 0:04:54.290 --> 0:04:56.980 his hands with a bag his brother dispatched of, et cetera, 0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:59.360 et cetera. The New York Times had this story yesterday. 0:04:59.680 --> 0:05:03.040 He certainly helped with the cover-up, O.J. You may recall Mr. 0:05:03.100 --> 0:05:08.460 Ippolito. He was there that night. Yes? No? I'm just saying. Yeah. 0:05:08.580 --> 0:05:13.240 I know, Juice. Juice. Juice. Oh, boy. Multiple murderer O.J. 0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:13.880 Simpson there. 0:05:14.220 --> 0:05:18.120 And then, so we'll get into that story. That's pretty interesting. 0:05:18.180 --> 0:05:20.740 If you got the O.J. thing and have always wondered, 0:05:20.760 --> 0:05:22.440 maybe he had help that night. Maybe that's how he 0:05:23.650 --> 0:05:26.450 dispatched of two people so quickly and could never find 0:05:26.510 --> 0:05:31.630 the murder weapon, etc. Also, the midterm elections are two 0:05:31.670 --> 0:05:34.909 weeks from tomorrow, and I can't wait until it's over 0:05:35.089 --> 0:05:37.560 so that we can stop hearing about it and maybe 0:05:37.630 --> 0:05:40.280 pretend that there's other news in the world. 0:05:41.930 --> 0:05:46.190 There is, but most of it's depressing. So we could 0:05:46.230 --> 0:05:53.529 talk about baseball, football, the falling of the leaves, very scenic, 0:05:54.010 --> 0:05:57.469 putting away your shorts and grabbing your hoodies, the fall, 0:05:57.510 --> 0:06:00.450 the autumn. I love the autumn. Let's not talk about 0:06:00.470 --> 0:06:07.300 the news. Yeah, I get that. But I suppose we 0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:12.040 will anyway. How about the utterly unholy, perhaps the worst, 0:06:12.140 --> 0:06:15.279 most evil idea I've heard in recent decades? The idea 0:06:15.420 --> 0:06:21.680 of a Trump-Putin-Xi summit to decide the fate of Ukraine. Why, 0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:28.610 that's horrifying. You left a name out. Zelensky? Yeah. Not invited. 0:06:29.890 --> 0:06:33.570 The idea that China, Russia, and Trump will get together 0:06:34.110 --> 0:06:37.710 and come up with a ending to that war without 0:06:37.750 --> 0:06:41.230 Zelensky involved is really something. We still have the question mark, 0:06:41.250 --> 0:06:46.470 which I honestly think this could turn into a giant 0:06:46.529 --> 0:06:53.620 people-are-following-it-everyday story of the who turned off the communication that 0:06:53.660 --> 0:06:56.279 was necessarily through Starlink or whatever that other company is 0:06:56.740 --> 0:07:00.739 to help Ukraine defend itself. They got the hell bombed 0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:04.080 out of them last night, and it continues, and it 0:07:04.140 --> 0:07:08.420 seems like Russia... Putin feels like, man, we're close. We're 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:10.060 close to getting him to fall. We just got to 0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:13.180 kill enough civilians that they give up. And Trump's on 0:07:13.220 --> 0:07:16.120 our side now. And that still could turn into a 0:07:16.360 --> 0:07:18.800 giant scandal. Did Trump order that to slow down? 0:07:18.820 --> 0:07:22.300 Did Elon do it? See, it's funny. I don't get 0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.230 where you're coming from. I think everybody knows Trump did it. 0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:28.000 I don't think there's any dispute of that, is there? 0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:31.490 We've stopped warning them about incoming attacks now. 0:07:32.590 --> 0:07:37.810 Well, I think when that becomes openly talked about, because 0:07:37.850 --> 0:07:41.300 there are enough Republicans that don't dig what's going on 0:07:41.310 --> 0:07:45.100 with this whole Russia story. The executive order that Trump 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.440 signed over the weekend to ignore the Lindsey Graham law. 0:07:48.800 --> 0:07:51.000 Yeah. And I mean, I saw Ted Cruz. 0:07:51.060 --> 0:07:53.620 I mean, who backs Trump more than Ted Cruz? I 0:07:53.640 --> 0:07:55.320 saw Ted Cruz on one of the shows yesterday. It 0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:57.940 was a hardcore against that. So I just think the 0:07:58.790 --> 0:08:03.050 throttling of the information, the buying diesel from Russia, and 0:08:03.170 --> 0:08:06.130 the executive order overturning the Lindsey Graham law are going 0:08:06.150 --> 0:08:07.920 to be, I think they're about to explode as a 0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:08.940 huge story. 0:08:09.280 --> 0:08:14.020 I think so. You have Republican senatorial candidates disavowing all 0:08:14.040 --> 0:08:16.340 of that on the trail at this point, which has 0:08:16.700 --> 0:08:18.130 been a rarity up to this point. 0:08:18.970 --> 0:08:23.690 Splitting with Trump, as they say. So you think it 0:08:23.750 --> 0:08:26.940 has been solved? I was looking in some quarters where 0:08:26.980 --> 0:08:30.820 they still think that Elon did it on his own, which. 0:08:33.460 --> 0:08:34.040 Oh, boy. 0:08:35.020 --> 0:08:42.460 Wow, his categorical denial of it. And the statements from 0:08:42.500 --> 0:08:46.640 the White House would suggest what I just said. But 0:08:47.080 --> 0:08:49.179 if I'm missing something, I'm more than happy to hear it. 0:08:49.220 --> 0:08:51.880 But it seems to me just absolutely clear. It's all 0:08:51.940 --> 0:08:57.280 of a piece. I mean, the various moves you mentioned, 0:08:57.300 --> 0:09:01.580 the diesel deal, the suspending of the sanctions, the Lindsey 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:06.179 Graham Act, etc. This, you know, saying Zelensky's the problem, 0:09:06.220 --> 0:09:10.990 not Putin. And then that, denying them the defensive shield. 0:09:12.010 --> 0:09:14.209 It's all of a piece, yeah. It all fits. 0:09:14.570 --> 0:09:18.770 By the way... And a different topic that involves Elon Musk. Well, 0:09:18.790 --> 0:09:20.570 first of all, some more of the fallout from that 0:09:20.790 --> 0:09:24.040 rocket car spaceship thingy that he unveiled last week and 0:09:24.059 --> 0:09:28.449 the all the pushback on that that I find. Combination 0:09:28.490 --> 0:09:32.800 of depressing and hilarious. Elon announced, so we've been asking 0:09:32.820 --> 0:09:36.240 the while, okay, so this universal high income, when AI 0:09:36.280 --> 0:09:38.260 starts causing everybody to lose their jobs, how is this 0:09:38.280 --> 0:09:41.640 going to work? Who's going to fork over the money 0:09:41.700 --> 0:09:43.500 or gather the money or hand it out and everything? 0:09:44.080 --> 0:09:48.930 And Elon announced that he's going to give kids shares 0:09:49.130 --> 0:09:53.770 of SpaceX starting later this year or starting next year. 0:09:53.830 --> 0:09:56.790 And that's how universal high income is going to work. 0:09:57.550 --> 0:10:02.050 Anthropic made a similar pledge. So individuals are going to 0:10:02.630 --> 0:10:03.599 decide on their own? 0:10:03.620 --> 0:10:05.200 Okay. 0:10:05.860 --> 0:10:08.559 Yeah, they're going to try to buy us off so 0:10:08.580 --> 0:10:11.040 we don't go Frenchman in the streets. 0:10:13.320 --> 0:10:16.260 That would break with history if all the richest companies 0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:17.920 in the world all of a sudden just decide to 0:10:18.300 --> 0:10:19.880 give over lots of their profits to people. 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:28.400 To stave off outrage over being unemployed and unemployable. Yes, 0:10:28.480 --> 0:10:30.000 it's an interesting strategy. 0:10:30.100 --> 0:10:32.120 I'd say, well, I've talked more about that. Elon announced 0:10:32.160 --> 0:10:35.689 it yesterday. So that's a heck of an interesting story. 0:10:36.330 --> 0:10:38.670 Let's start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe 0:10:38.690 --> 0:10:41.990 Getty on The Citizen. Why children only? Only children get 0:10:42.030 --> 0:10:45.110 the space. How about lazy old people just asking for 0:10:45.150 --> 0:10:47.809 a friend? Or people that weren't lazy but had a 0:10:47.850 --> 0:10:49.490 job that got replaced by AI. 0:10:49.570 --> 0:10:51.830 I thought they were supposed to get some of this money. 0:10:53.270 --> 0:10:55.860 Not so much. Next generation? Next generation. You're out of luck. 0:10:56.880 --> 0:10:58.099 I'm Jack Armstrong. He's Joe Getty. 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:01.040 On this Monday, October 19th, the year 2026, we are 0:11:01.160 --> 0:11:03.380 Armstrong and Getty, and we approve of this program. 0:11:04.070 --> 0:11:06.010 All right, then, let's get down to work. It is 0:11:06.050 --> 0:11:08.540 Monday after all. The show begins officially according to FCC 0:11:08.580 --> 0:11:09.800 rules or eggs at mark. 0:11:10.080 --> 0:11:15.660 The tourist office in Lyon engulfed in flames. Businesses ransacked. 0:11:15.660 --> 0:11:20.260 600 police officers injured. More than 2,000 people were arrested. 0:11:21.179 --> 0:11:24.390 Much of the anger directed at their leader, Emmanuel Macron, 0:11:24.750 --> 0:11:28.250 who faced backlash for attending the Celine Dion concert with 0:11:28.290 --> 0:11:30.569 his wife on the eve of the protests. 0:11:34.670 --> 0:11:38.550 Celine Dion's in town. On the eve of the protests? 0:11:38.590 --> 0:11:41.350 What does that mean? What, it was protest eve or something? 0:11:41.770 --> 0:11:45.090 He got tickets to the show? His old lady was already, 0:11:45.130 --> 0:11:47.710 remember she slapped him down on that airplane? He's trying 0:11:47.730 --> 0:11:48.590 to make it up with her. 0:11:49.510 --> 0:11:52.130 Yeah, I didn't realize it was the eve of, you 0:11:52.150 --> 0:11:54.170 don't know the protests are coming the next day and 0:11:54.190 --> 0:11:55.850 going to be so violent. What, are you supposed to 0:11:55.890 --> 0:11:59.410 cancel your concerts the night before unexpected events? 0:11:59.490 --> 0:12:02.800 I don't understand that. Right. Now, Macron is, I will 0:12:02.840 --> 0:12:06.260 grant you, a panty-wearing, cheese-eating, surrender-monkey socialist. 0:12:06.320 --> 0:12:10.290 He did give a, I thought, tepid speech yesterday in 0:12:10.330 --> 0:12:14.510 an attempt to calm people down. Them ain't just high 0:12:14.550 --> 0:12:18.050 school kids unhappy with the size of their classrooms out there. 0:12:17.890 --> 0:12:20.459 In the streets burning things down. No, indeed. 0:12:20.480 --> 0:12:23.600 God, there's some horrible looting videos. I mean, that always 0:12:23.640 --> 0:12:27.280 happens when you have chaos, the people who just want stuff. 0:12:27.940 --> 0:12:31.620 But busting out the windows and doors of fancy stores 0:12:31.660 --> 0:12:37.290 and fancy cities and stealing all the, you know, what's 0:12:37.370 --> 0:12:38.650 a fancy brand handbag? 0:12:38.970 --> 0:12:39.949 The Louis Vuitton bags. 0:12:40.010 --> 0:12:42.189 The Louis Vuitton bags and everything like that. That ain't 0:12:42.210 --> 0:12:46.110 because you don't have air conditioning in your math classroom. 0:12:47.290 --> 0:12:49.830 I got myself a nice gym bag. I mean, when 0:12:49.850 --> 0:12:51.770 there's looting going on, if everybody's doing it, why not 0:12:51.809 --> 0:12:52.770 join in? That's what I said. 0:12:53.050 --> 0:12:55.310 We've got Katie's headlines on the way next and more 0:12:55.330 --> 0:12:56.689 of a deep dive in some of those stories. 0:12:56.730 --> 0:13:03.089 I hope you can stay here. Armstrong and Getty. I 0:13:03.090 --> 0:13:03.390 read an. 0:13:03.390 --> 0:13:06.750 Interesting piece from a smart guy that I like on 0:13:06.820 --> 0:13:09.660 why France can't really crack down because they let it 0:13:09.700 --> 0:13:10.760 go so far. 0:13:11.660 --> 0:13:13.540 You can't really crack down at this point. We'll have 0:13:13.559 --> 0:13:15.870 to talk more about that later. Let's figure out who's 0:13:15.890 --> 0:13:18.390 reporting what. It's the lead story with Katie Green. Katie, 0:13:18.450 --> 0:13:20.030 hit it. All right. At the top of all the 0:13:20.070 --> 0:13:22.770 alphabet networks, it is Russia-Ukraine. 0:13:22.830 --> 0:13:26.150 Starting with CBS, Trump accuses Zelensky of not wanting to 0:13:26.270 --> 0:13:31.020 end the war sparked by Russia's full-scale invasion. ABC, Russia 0:13:31.040 --> 0:13:35.479 targets Kyiv with ballistic missiles, strikes, energy facilities, and more, 0:13:35.580 --> 0:13:40.520 says Ukraine. And CNN, Trump slams Zelensky after Ukraine defies U.S. 0:13:40.559 --> 0:13:44.400 President with major attack on Russia. What is he supposed 0:13:44.420 --> 0:13:49.650 to do? Capitulate. That would be much more convenient for Mr. Trump. 0:13:52.350 --> 0:13:56.050 The backstop of this being that, like, the buy in 0:13:56.309 --> 0:13:59.179 Russian oil ain't going to make much difference anyway. I mean, 0:13:59.460 --> 0:14:02.640 if this is all a midterm play, it's not going 0:14:02.660 --> 0:14:05.140 to make enough of a difference with enough time left 0:14:05.200 --> 0:14:06.120 to have any effect. 0:14:06.740 --> 0:14:08.380 Oh, no. The price of diesel might drop by a 0:14:08.420 --> 0:14:11.110 few cents. Temporarily. 0:14:12.580 --> 0:14:17.280 From The Guardian, Macron criticizes far-left violence after days of 0:14:17.370 --> 0:14:20.610 unrest and 2,400 arrests across France. 0:14:20.630 --> 0:14:22.610 Man, the cow is out of the barn on that 0:14:22.670 --> 0:14:25.090 whole thing. Yeah, we'll explain exactly what's going on. 0:14:25.130 --> 0:14:28.430 You will never figure it out listening to the lame 0:14:28.490 --> 0:14:31.430 stream of media. Wow. 0:14:32.610 --> 0:14:36.900 From Fox News, Trump says Netanyahu needs to be re-elected 0:14:37.020 --> 0:14:39.260 or else the United States will have to finish the 0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.260 job against Iran alone. 0:14:43.410 --> 0:14:46.860 Trump's very popular in Israel. 0:14:47.360 --> 0:14:52.160 So, like a campaign ad. NBC. 0:14:52.900 --> 0:14:58.190 Americans are anxious, pessimistic, and deeply unhappy with Trump ahead 0:14:58.210 --> 0:14:59.970 of the midterms, according to Poll. 0:15:01.590 --> 0:15:04.410 I don't know that I'm anxious or deeply unhappy. Do 0:15:04.450 --> 0:15:07.110 I have to be all those things? I am somewhat 0:15:07.290 --> 0:15:12.450 anxious and mildly unhappy. Okay. New York Post. 0:15:13.090 --> 0:15:16.930 Elon Musk vows to give SpaceX shares to every child 0:15:17.010 --> 0:15:19.610 in America in 2027. 0:15:19.610 --> 0:15:25.520 Also teases more to come. Yeah, that's interesting. Has that 0:15:25.580 --> 0:15:26.500 ever happened before? 0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:30.680 An individual giving out money to every... What will be 0:15:30.700 --> 0:15:31.960 the mechanism for that? 0:15:32.920 --> 0:15:35.980 Has Elon read the childhood classic, Give a Mouse a Cookie? 0:15:37.300 --> 0:15:39.760 Because I think we may have that dynamic at play, too, 0:15:39.900 --> 0:15:42.660 once you establish a precedent. I'm sure he has read 0:15:42.710 --> 0:15:45.530 that at night to any of his 15 kids before 0:15:45.550 --> 0:15:51.130 they get to go to sleep. Heartwarming. From the Wall 0:15:51.170 --> 0:15:51.810 Street Journal. 0:15:52.330 --> 0:15:56.310 Socializing at college is so fraught that it requires paperwork 0:15:56.390 --> 0:15:57.290 before partying. 0:15:57.310 --> 0:16:02.280 What? I want to hear that story. Wow. Starts off 0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:02.740 with a. 0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.620 To get into a party at Stanford University, they had 0:16:05.700 --> 0:16:09.300 to recite a consent pledge. 0:16:10.030 --> 0:16:12.090 Gotcha. They're just kind of talking about these little things happening. 0:16:12.130 --> 0:16:18.430 Trying to avoid the problems, right? Right, yeah. Wow. And finally, 0:16:19.190 --> 0:16:20.070 the Babylon Bee. 0:16:20.890 --> 0:16:25.420 Tiger Woods, unimpressed with Roadster as he's flipped dozens of vehicles. 0:16:25.440 --> 0:16:28.340 There you go. Yes. Yes. 0:16:28.820 --> 0:16:33.830 The crowd that was angered or thought it was horrifying 0:16:34.030 --> 0:16:39.980 that a trillionaire invented a rocket car. I find interesting. 0:16:40.400 --> 0:16:42.280 Love to talk about that also. I don't want to 0:16:42.300 --> 0:16:45.280 be around you people. No, they're borderline mentally ill. And 0:16:45.640 --> 0:16:47.380 no fun, certainly. We've got a lot on the way. 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:48.680 If you miss anything, get the podcast. 0:16:49.280 --> 0:16:50.460 Armstrong and Getty. 0:16:51.960 --> 0:16:55.160 How did they skip the immigrant-owned buildings but attack all 0:16:55.200 --> 0:16:56.840 the Jewish-owned buildings. 0:16:56.780 --> 0:17:00.160 In some of your big cities of France? What's going 0:17:00.250 --> 0:17:02.950 on there? What's that got to do with School funding. 0:17:03.380 --> 0:17:06.230 Anyway, more on that in Hour 2 of the Armstrong 0:17:06.290 --> 0:17:07.010 and Getty Show. 0:17:07.910 --> 0:17:08.410 Oh, boy. 0:17:08.430 --> 0:17:09.950 A bunch of other things we want to get to. 0:17:09.970 --> 0:17:12.090 I don't know if you watched any NFL over the weekend. 0:17:12.350 --> 0:17:16.730 The worst team in all of the NFL is probably 0:17:17.010 --> 0:17:17.490 the L.A. 0:17:17.570 --> 0:17:18.050 Chargers. 0:17:18.570 --> 0:17:21.389 The last time the Chargers were 0-6 to start a 0:17:21.450 --> 0:17:24.530 season in 2000, their quarterback was a young man named 0:17:24.630 --> 0:17:25.290 Jim Harbaugh. 0:17:26.310 --> 0:17:26.629 Oh, my. 0:17:26.810 --> 0:17:30.070 Yeah, that's rough. And unfortunate to parallel. And now he's 0:17:30.109 --> 0:17:33.380 the coach, in case you're not an NFL fan. Wanted 0:17:33.400 --> 0:17:37.949 to hit you with this before we get into actual content. 0:17:39.270 --> 0:17:43.050 I thought this was really good. Every single person you 0:17:43.090 --> 0:17:45.730 meet in your daily life is fighting a hidden battle 0:17:45.770 --> 0:17:48.750 that you know nothing about. Send them a Zoom meeting 0:17:48.810 --> 0:17:50.690 link for an 8 a.m. call on a Monday morning 0:17:50.730 --> 0:17:51.530 and finish them off. 0:17:54.310 --> 0:18:04.640 Oh, there was a twist. That is bitterly hilarious. It is. God, 0:18:04.700 --> 0:18:09.220 that's so good. That is funny. Nasty. 0:18:09.280 --> 0:18:14.220 So it's not like it's just Entertainment Tonight or what's 0:18:14.240 --> 0:18:17.230 that show, TMZ, that's covering this. 0:18:17.670 --> 0:18:23.090 New York Times, Sunday edition, Times exclusive. The O.J. 0:18:23.130 --> 0:18:26.490 Simpson trial wrapped 31 years ago, but the LAPD cold 0:18:26.510 --> 0:18:31.270 case has been following new leads. And one of the 0:18:31.310 --> 0:18:34.710 most interesting parts of the whole thing is this Joey 0:18:34.850 --> 0:18:36.469 Joseph Jojo Ippolito. 0:18:36.490 --> 0:18:37.840 Forget about it. 0:18:37.990 --> 0:18:41.870 Who may have been the accomplice and accomplice to OJ's 0:18:41.950 --> 0:18:45.810 murder of his ex-wife and her friend who just was 0:18:45.859 --> 0:18:51.160 trying to return the glasses. You all remember the crime. Ippolito, 0:18:51.220 --> 0:18:54.300 a convicted drug trafficker with organized crime connections, was also 0:18:54.359 --> 0:18:56.960 acquainted with Simpson and Al Cowlings. 0:18:57.020 --> 0:18:57.919 That is known. 0:18:58.590 --> 0:19:00.850 And here's what's emerged according to the New York Times. 0:19:01.890 --> 0:19:06.760 Ippolito's brother, Sam, told the New York Times that Joey 0:19:06.840 --> 0:19:09.820 returned home on the night of the murders with blood 0:19:09.960 --> 0:19:13.880 on his hands. Now, even when you're an organized crime, 0:19:14.119 --> 0:19:16.040 I gotta believe when you walk in the door with 0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:17.820 blood on your hands, it's notable. 0:19:18.700 --> 0:19:21.790 Big night? Well, yeah. Oh, I didn't know you were 0:19:21.810 --> 0:19:22.810 working tonight. Sure. 0:19:24.130 --> 0:19:28.740 A mysterious bag, according to Sam. That is the brother. 0:19:30.160 --> 0:19:33.239 Joey carried a bag containing something heavy. He allegedly put 0:19:33.260 --> 0:19:35.580 his clothes inside it and asked Sam to dispose of it. 0:19:35.660 --> 0:19:37.580 And I suppose if you have a brother in organized crime, 0:19:38.060 --> 0:19:40.200 when you're in organized crime, somebody says you dispose of 0:19:40.240 --> 0:19:44.570 a bag, you just do it. Right. Sam claims he 0:19:44.590 --> 0:19:46.730 threw the bag into a dumpster near a construction site 0:19:46.750 --> 0:19:49.310 in Los Angeles. Investigators have never recovered the knife used 0:19:49.350 --> 0:19:54.560 in the killings. previously secret information newly unsealed federal records 0:19:54.619 --> 0:19:59.000 reveal that joey subsequently became a government informant and provided 0:19:59.080 --> 0:20:02.280 authorities with information about simpson's alleged disposal of the murder 0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:05.950 weapon A possible connection to the Bronco chase would be 0:20:06.030 --> 0:20:09.060 that investigators also examined whether Ippolito was involved in plans 0:20:09.080 --> 0:20:11.300 to help Simpson escape the country. 0:20:12.580 --> 0:20:15.580 Which he was very, very good at, having busted out 0:20:15.619 --> 0:20:16.720 of jail once or twice. 0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:21.920 A federal prosecutor describes Ippolito, Joey Ippolito, as an exceptionally 0:20:21.980 --> 0:20:26.300 valuable informant. But apparently prosecutors in Simpson's murder trial never 0:20:26.380 --> 0:20:30.500 presented his information to the jury. Former prosecutor Marsha Clark... 0:20:31.119 --> 0:20:33.750 who's still kicking, was asked by the New York Times 0:20:34.330 --> 0:20:36.899 about this. And she said she had no knowledge of 0:20:36.970 --> 0:20:39.439 Ippolito and believed she would have been informed if he 0:20:39.460 --> 0:20:40.780 had provided credible evidence. 0:20:41.950 --> 0:20:46.050 My understanding of it was, so Joey Ips, do they 0:20:46.090 --> 0:20:48.590 ever give us, you got to have a good mob nickname. 0:20:48.750 --> 0:20:52.270 Come on. Anyway, so I'm calling him Joey Ips. So 0:20:52.369 --> 0:20:54.730 as it turns out, Joey Ips, who can't go like 0:20:54.790 --> 0:20:58.280 three weeks without committing a crime, busted out of prison, 0:20:58.500 --> 0:21:00.840 minimum security, and then he did a bunch more crimes 0:21:00.900 --> 0:21:03.340 and got arrested again. And the reason he was, whatever 0:21:03.359 --> 0:21:08.140 they said, an incredibly valuable and reliable commentator, whatever they said, 0:21:08.460 --> 0:21:10.360 was because he was looking at going to prison for 0:21:10.520 --> 0:21:12.780 a long time and said to the authorities, I will 0:21:12.840 --> 0:21:16.139 tell you everything about everything. If you'll keep me out 0:21:16.180 --> 0:21:17.780 of jail, I don't want to go back to jail. 0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:21.179 So he just ratted out everybody on every topic he 0:21:21.220 --> 0:21:24.690 could think of. But that was like eight months. That's right, folks. 0:21:24.750 --> 0:21:26.710 It went on that long. That was months and months 0:21:26.730 --> 0:21:30.350 and months into the OJ trial. And the prosecution had 0:21:30.450 --> 0:21:34.760 already rested. And so, like, Marsha Clark says, nah, there's 0:21:34.800 --> 0:21:37.940 nothing there. Other people say, well, it was too late, really. 0:21:38.900 --> 0:21:40.639 And we didn't want to distract the jury because it 0:21:40.680 --> 0:21:47.140 was an open and shut case. Sorry, mouth full of water. 0:21:47.320 --> 0:21:49.060 That's a pretty interesting point. 0:21:50.359 --> 0:21:55.260 You had reason to assume, as the prosecutors, this is 0:21:55.300 --> 0:21:58.830 a two-foot putt, so we don't need to get more complicated. 0:21:58.920 --> 0:22:01.389 Oh, yeah, yeah. It's funny, reading the New York Times 0:22:01.450 --> 0:22:04.730 article about this, I was reminded of the overwhelming amount 0:22:04.780 --> 0:22:09.940 of evidence. I mean, it was just stunning. If O.J. 0:22:09.980 --> 0:22:13.960 had videotaped the actual crime, horrifying thought, it would have 0:22:13.980 --> 0:22:18.070 been just 10% more evidence. Anyway, yeah, so at that point, 0:22:18.090 --> 0:22:19.910 to introduce very late in the trial, oh, and there 0:22:19.930 --> 0:22:21.790 may have been a second guy to the jury. They 0:22:21.810 --> 0:22:25.850 would have said, wait, what? So, yeah, they passed, according 0:22:25.890 --> 0:22:26.150 to some. 0:22:26.450 --> 0:22:30.180 Joey has been dead since 2006, by the way. So 0:22:30.220 --> 0:22:34.040 he will not be on 60 Minutes Sunday night telling 0:22:34.080 --> 0:22:39.840 his story. If this turned out to be true, does this... Well, 0:22:39.859 --> 0:22:40.609 I guess what makes it. 0:22:42.780 --> 0:22:44.580 Well, what does make it interesting, if it turns out 0:22:44.600 --> 0:22:47.500 to be true? It would shut the door on who 0:22:47.520 --> 0:22:49.270 did it, but there aren't that many people that wonder 0:22:49.310 --> 0:22:54.659 who did it. Well, practically nobody. Including black people at 0:22:54.700 --> 0:22:59.639 this point. Right. Right. Overwhelmingly. Yes. Yes. But this does 0:22:59.800 --> 0:23:04.720
