I don't again, stop feeding the beast. Yeah, now, 94 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: I am certainly not on the side of the left 95 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: who wants a scalp or a resignation or a firing 96 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,160 Speaker 1: or whatever. You know, they made a mistake that seemed 97 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: to have no significant repercussions. Thank god. Let's see how that. Yeah, 98 00:05:39,640 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: thank god?

I was watching Fox and Friends and Brian 102 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,599 Speaker 1: Kilmead was making the point that the day after we 103 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 1: attacked the Hooties and it was the largest military extra 104 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: size of Trump's second term, which only a couple months old, 105 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 1: but still. 106 00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:06,520 Speaker 2: And worth noting, long long, long overdue. 107 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely completely justified, easily justified. But got no news coverage. 108 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: Kill Mead was pointing out. He said, the next day 109 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: he came into work and he's like, there's like page 110 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: fifteen of the New York Times.

It got no coverage. Now all 113 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,280 Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's at what time did the plane 114 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: leave the you know, all that sort of stuff like it. 115 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: Now it's a utmost you know, national importance.

I can't. 121 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: I can't operate that way just because Joe Biden did 122 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: this or that or whatever, and making the list one 123 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:53,800 Speaker 1: hundred things that they did that were awful and light 124 00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: about and the media covered up all true.

So this morning, this is not 178 00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: an important news story, but I thought it's kind of interesting. 179 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: Megan Markle, Harry's wife, Oh, has got a new show, 180 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,240 Speaker 1: and it's at least six weeks since I heard that name, 181 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: and you ruined the streak. She wants to be called 182 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: Meghan of Whales now or something like that, and I thought, okay, great, 183 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 1: you can say whatever you want. I'll call you whatever 184 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: I want.

I mean it's getting 191 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 1: beat up fairly good, like in social media and everything 192 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,000 Speaker 1: like that. And they got into a bit of an 193 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: argument on NPR, the host and then the guest that 194 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: they had on, because the guest said the pushback against 195 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 1: Megan Markle is racism, but the host said, I have 196 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: to push back on you a little bit. 197 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:35,479 Speaker 2: I think it's sexism. 198 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 1: Oh, that's beautiful, funny, because it couldn't be that the 199 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 1: show is craft or that she's just an insufferable presence 200 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,040 Speaker 1: by everybody.

So in like 312 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: a year they've gone from everyone must drive an electric 313 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:06,879 Speaker 1: car too. 314 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 2: I'm setting fire to electric. 315 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 1: Car and people wonder why they get no respect idiots. 316 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: The NPR hearing was something we got some highlights for you. 317 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 1: I guarantee you're gonna like Armstrong and Getty. So I 318 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 1: mock these stupid congressional hearings all the time. They are 319 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 1: often like most of the time, like practically all the time, 320 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 1: a waste of time and nothing has learned. But that 321 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: is not the case yesterday. In my opinion, with talking 322 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: to the leader of NPR, what do you think I 323 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: would agree it was an excellent opportunity to expose a 324 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: truly evil person for her true evil, and I think 325 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: that was done. I'm not sure how many people will 326 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: see or hear this, but I'm glad it happened. Well, 327 00:17:51,560 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: we had the clip of her a couple of years ago, 328 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: I mean when she was named to lead NPR and 329 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: there was that clip going around from a Ted talk 330 00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 1: where she discussed, you know, the truth is getting in 331 00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:06,200 Speaker 1: the way these days of the truth is a distraction 332 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: from us accomplishing what we need to accomplish. Right, so 333 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: we already knew. She added weird views of the world. 334 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,920 Speaker 1: But anyway, this is Representative Brandon Gill and his questioning 335 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: of the leader of NPR and a hearing yesterday, and 336 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: it's all about trying to justify two Republicans why they 337 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,960 Speaker 1: should get federal funding. That's you know, it's kind of 338 00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,159 Speaker 1: a doge thing. But here we go. 339 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 3: Do you believe that America is addicted to white supremacy? 340 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,439 Speaker 5: I believe that I tweeted that, and as I've said earlier, 341 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 5: I believe much of my thinking has evolved over the 342 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 5: last half decade. 343 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 3: It has evolved. Why did you tweet that? 344 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,679 Speaker 5: I don't recall the exact context, sir, so I wouldn't 345 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 5: be able to. 346 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:47,160 Speaker 3: Say, Okay, do you believe that America believes in black plunder? 347 00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:48,360 Speaker 3: And White Democracy. 348 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 6: I don't believe that, sir. 349 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,959 Speaker 3: You tweeted reference to a book you were reading at 350 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 3: the time, apparently the Case for Reparations. 351 00:18:57,840 --> 00:18:59,360 Speaker 6: I don't think I've ever read that book, sir. 352 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 3: You tweeted about it. You said you took a day 353 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,360 Speaker 3: off to fully read The Case for Reparations. You put 354 00:19:06,359 --> 00:19:08,399 Speaker 3: that on Twitter in January twenty twenty. 355 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 6: I apologies, I don't recall that. 356 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:15,040 Speaker 5: I didn't no doubt that your tweet there is correct, 357 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 5: but I don't recall that. 358 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: Okay, is it possible to forget reading a long nonfiction book. 359 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,679 Speaker 1: I don't think so that you tweeted I've taken the 360 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: day off to read this scarely. No. Now occasionally I will, 361 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,959 Speaker 1: you know, have the punchline last, and then sometimes I announce, 362 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 1: you know, I'm gonna break format and do the punchline first. 363 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: This is true Joe Getty innovation. Here's the punchline in 364 00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,040 Speaker 1: the beginning part of the middle. Here's what you need 365 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: to remember as you listen to the rest of these clips. 366 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: And this is a quote from James Lindsay. Marxists just lie. 367 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 1: They lie so overtly and blatantly that people begin to 368 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: question their own perceptions. It works because no one expects 369 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: another person to lie so overtly. They don't believe shared truth. 370 00:20:00,840 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: They use words as weapons. Until you learn to keep 371 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:07,119 Speaker 1: this in mind during interaction, you will get continue to 372 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: get played. They rely on you implicitly assuming that they 373 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: have good intentions and are aiming at shared truth, and 374 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 1: so dialogue can be productive. That's a deception. For Marxists 375 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,399 Speaker 1: like Catherine Mayer, dialogue is not a way of attaining truth. 376 00:20:20,440 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: It is a form for manipulation. She is lying every word. 377 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 1: Well you think we got a Marxist running in pr 378 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,160 Speaker 1: oh one hundred percent? Well certainly? Well, yeah, a neo Marxist, 379 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,680 Speaker 1: and that she believes Western civilization should be torn down. 380 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 1: She believes absolutely every single thing that she's asked about 381 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 1: and denies in this herac and Sary Moore. 382 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 3: Do you believe that white people and inherently feel superior 383 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 3: to other races? I do not. You don't. You tweeted 384 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 3: something to that effect. You said I grew up feeling superior. Ha, 385 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 3: how wide of me? Why did you tweet that? 386 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 5: I think I was probably reflecting on what it was 387 00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 5: to be to grow up in an en where I 388 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 5: had lots of advantages. 389 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 3: It sounds like you're saying that white people feel superior. 390 00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 5: I don't believe that anybody feels that way, sir. I 391 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 5: was just reflecting on my own experiences. 392 00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 3: Do you think that white people should pay reparations? 393 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:13,440 Speaker 5: I've never said that, sir. 394 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 3: Yes you did. You said it in January of twenty twenty. 395 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 3: You tweeted, yes, the North, yes, all of us, Yes, America, Yes, 396 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 3: our original collective sin and unpaid debt. Yes, reparations, yes 397 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 3: on this day. 398 00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 5: I don't believe that was a reference to fiscal reparations, sir. 399 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 3: What kind of reparations was it a reference to. 400 00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 5: I think it was just a reference to the idea 401 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 5: that we all owe much to the people who came 402 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 5: before us. 403 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 3: Right. That's a bizarre way to frame what you tweeted. Okay, 404 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,040 Speaker 3: how many how much reparations have you personally paid? 405 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 6: Sir? 406 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,200 Speaker 5: I don't believe that I've ever paid reparations. 407 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 3: Okay, just for everybody else, I'm not asking anyone. Seems 408 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 3: to be what you're suggesting. 409 00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: I heard that I was not very familiar with Brandon Gill. 410 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: He is at the top of my list now of 411 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: guys to support and keep an eye on I will 412 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:08,200 Speaker 1: contribute to his reelection campaign. That is, he could barely 413 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 1: stop himself from giggling at one point because he was 414 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: just astounded at the blatancy of her lying, Well, we're 415 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: supposed to believe that a highly educated woman in the 416 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 1: news business is not familiar with the term reparations and 417 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 1: how it's normally used. No, when I use reparations, I 418 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 1: just mean we owe them something. I don't mean, I know, 419 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 1: a debt to those who's come before us. No reparations. 420 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 1: Oh that's what that means. Oh, what did you mean? Money? 421 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: Even though I guarantee I could find eight hundred versions 422 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: of them covering the California reparation story and all the 423 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,879 Speaker 1: money involved. Take it home, Brandon, take it home, buddy. 424 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: Do you believe that looting is morally wrong? 425 00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:54,119 Speaker 5: I believe that looting is illegal, and I refer to 426 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 5: it as counterproductive. 427 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:56,200 Speaker 6: I think it should be prosecuted. 428 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 3: You believe it's wrong, though, of course, of course, then 429 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:03,120 Speaker 3: why did you refer to it as counterproductive? A very different, 430 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 3: very different way to describe it. 431 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 5: It is both morally wrong and counterproductive, as well as 432 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:08,600 Speaker 5: being tweeted. 433 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 3: It's hard to be mad about protests in reference to 434 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:16,240 Speaker 3: the BLM protests not prioritizing the private property of a 435 00:23:16,320 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 3: system of oppression. You didn't condemn the looting, you said 436 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 3: that it was counter productive. NPR also promoted a book 437 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 3: called in Defensive Looting. Do you think that that's an 438 00:23:27,119 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 3: appropriate use of taxpayer dollars? 439 00:23:29,520 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 5: I'm unfamiliar with that book, sir, and I don't believe 440 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 5: that was at. 441 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: Tweeted that you read that book. 442 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 6: But I don't believe that I did read that. 443 00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,679 Speaker 1: Oh my god, yeah, oh my god, that is something 444 00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: the person running in PR is in that furthest gosh, 445 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: maybe half percent of Americans' political views. Yes, yeah, she 446 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: is an avowed would be destroyer of American and Western civilization. 447 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: She has dedicated her life to that goal. I am 448 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: one hundred percent confident of that statement. Well, and then 449 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,479 Speaker 1: then what's the structure of NPR that gave her that job. 450 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know how the board works, or 451 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: the hiring process or whatever. What is Obviously people that 452 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 1: wanted someone like her, and then you got all kinds 453 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,439 Speaker 1: of people who work beneath her who have gone along 454 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,080 Speaker 1: with all of that and been fine with it. Apparently 455 00:24:22,160 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 1: except for that one guy whatever his name was, in 456 00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 1: DC that remember he quit, He resigned, and he let 457 00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 1: us all know that that was a break. After leinner, 458 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 1: he was talking about how NPR had changed over the 459 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 1: years that he had been there, and but yeah, so 460 00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: you've got an entire structure that has to exist for 461 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:43,840 Speaker 1: her to be in charge of it for multiple years. 462 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 1: Excellent point. Yeah, the problem is not her per sae. 463 00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 1: It reminds me of what I was saying. Remember when 464 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:54,119 Speaker 1: Clouding Gay of Stanford University was in the process of 465 00:24:54,400 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: being run out of town, partly for being a serial 466 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: plagiarizer and an undistinguished academic, and people were like, how 467 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: is she the president of Harvard? That seems like a 468 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 1: bad decision. I was trying to communicate with people. She's 469 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: not president in spite of her being a mindless parrot 470 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 1: of woke doctrine. She's president of Harvard because of that. 471 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,840 Speaker 1: That's how she got the job. And of course she's 472 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: a plagiarizer. The entire field of woke social science is 473 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 1: repeating the religious incantations of that secular religion. 474 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 2: So no, you're not supposed to break ground, you're supposed 475 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 2: to repeat it. 476 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 1: You know what I would like to know did NPR 477 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:42,639 Speaker 1: cover this at all? Did they cover this in twenty 478 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:49,200 Speaker 1: four hours or did they present it didn't happen. Well, Katie, 479 00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 1: if you have a minute to dig into that, I'd 480 00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: love to hear that. And if they, if they reported it, 481 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: how did they handle it right? 482 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 2: Did I see this on the evening newscast last night? 483 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,399 Speaker 1: Dang it? I took in so much news because I 484 00:26:01,400 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 1: saw this footing around clips on Twitter with people who 485 00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 1: lean right just absolutely loving all this stuff. But I 486 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: don't know if it made CBS Evening News, ABC Evening 487 00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: News at all. 488 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 2: It should. 489 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:15,560 Speaker 1: I know, people like nice, smart people who are friends 490 00:26:15,560 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: of mine, who like look at me wide eyed, like 491 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: I'm some sort of nut. If I suggest that NPR 492 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 1: is biased, even to suggest that it's biased, let alone 493 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: anywhere within her realm, which is beyond biased, you're into 494 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: crazyville the stuff she's talking about. But I suggest that, well, NPR, 495 00:26:35,359 --> 00:26:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, and they just they look at me like 496 00:26:37,359 --> 00:26:40,960 Speaker 1: I'm some sort of right wing, crazy conspiracy person. To 497 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,440 Speaker 1: think NBR is biased, well, isn't to that woman? Wow, 498 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,919 Speaker 1: the power of perspective, it's amazing. You can't overestimate how 499 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,720 Speaker 1: important it is. Katie's answer to my query right after 500 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 1: a word for our friends, that's simply say own security. 501 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:57,399 Speaker 2: Use that as a tease. 502 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 1: Katie's answer next, I feel like I already did that, 503 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:06,280 Speaker 1: but you know whatever.

In fact, our reference for the truth might 576 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 7: be a distraction that's getting in the way of finding 577 00:30:51,560 --> 00:30:53,760 Speaker 7: common ground and getting things done. 578 00:30:53,920 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: Wow, she should be. 579 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 2: Now, Michael, I know you got diabetes. 580 00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 1: But the executive producer handsOn is raving about the cookies 581 00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:07,120 Speaker 1: out there.

I've been fired from good jobs 624 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: for much less than the mistake made by Waltz. I'm 625 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: not sure he should be fired for that, but I 626 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,880 Speaker 1: think the lies under oath should be fireable offenses for sure. 627 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,560 Speaker 1: If there were lies and then we got this gotten 628 00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 1: several like this, Bob says, you continue to give oxygen 629 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,720 Speaker 1: something that is not consequential. That's why it's still alive. 630 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:48,720 Speaker 1: If you talk about something else, then it moves on 631 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,040 Speaker 1: don't be part of the mainstream media. You're ignoring far 632 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 1: more consequential stories. If you keep talking about it, or 633 00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: if you stop talking about it, it will die. Two things, Bob. 634 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: Number one, we are not ignoring far more consequential stories. 635 00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: We have four hours and we deal with a lot 636 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 1: of different stuff. And secondly, I wish we had that 637 00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:11,320 Speaker 1: much influence, but we don't. We're commenting on the game 638 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:14,520 Speaker 1: being played. We're trying to learn it, we're trying to 639 00:34:14,600 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: understand it. Not just cheerleading all the time. But you 640 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 1: know it's not for everybody. Kevin from Beautiful Plastic, Plasterville, California. 641 00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 1: Just as a lot of news that you get on 642 00:34:25,560 --> 00:34:27,760 Speaker 1: the news, we get on the news just because it's interesting. 643 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:31,120 Speaker 1: You don't find it interesting that they have a when 644 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:34,560 Speaker 1: they're discussing war plans, they get together on a commercial 645 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:35,600 Speaker 1: chat thing like that. 646 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:37,440 Speaker 2: I found that fascinating. I didn't know that. 647 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: Accidentally include Jeffrey Goldberg, although I have a theory on 648 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,240 Speaker 1: that I want to share next hour and I'm pretty 649 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:46,560 Speaker 1: confident about it. But yeah, we don't always cheerlead. We 650 00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,240 Speaker 1: just find things interesting and want to understand what's happening 651 00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: around here. At the Armstrong and Getty Show. Anyway, Hey, 652 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: Big Freedom and Old Simple Jack? Do I have this right? 653 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 1: What we learned from the World Happiness ratings methodology We 654 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:59,399 Speaker 1: talked about this hour four in the show I Think 655 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:02,520 Speaker 1: yesterday if you didn't catch it Gravit Fi podcast Armstrong 656 00:35:02,560 --> 00:35:04,919 Speaker 1: and Getty on demand our four Yes dray My one 657 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:09,360 Speaker 1: mob review scintillating what we learned from the World Happiness 658 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 1: ratings methodology is that Scandinavian socialism doesn't create happiness. It 659 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,120 Speaker 1: creates hopelessness, as in no hopes or aspirations for making 660 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,719 Speaker 1: a better life for oneself. I guess if you're living 661 00:35:19,719 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 1: as a quasi surf working as state supported job until 662 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 1: you retire on a government pension, you probably see that 663 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,120 Speaker 1: as the pinnacle of life's possibilities. I guess this helps 664 00:35:28,120 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: explain why nearly every major company founded in the last 665 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,520 Speaker 1: fifty years as American not European. We hear in the 666 00:35:33,520 --> 00:35:36,000 Speaker 1: States still have the entrepreneurial spirit to go out and 667 00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 1: make a better life. Being high on the World Happiness 668 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,959 Speaker 1: Ratings sounds like an economic death knell. Anyway, Oh and two, 669 00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:48,080 Speaker 1: and we don't have time to play the you'll frequently 670 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 1: hear people, especially on emails.
