Stop it. It 13 00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 1: had to be him. I mean it looked exactly like him, 14 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: and he made two passes slow. So my son and 15 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: I got a good look at him, and we're like, 16 00:01:18,319 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: that's Vanilla Ice, the great Robbie van Winkle. Yeah, it's amazing. 17 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:24,720 Speaker 1: I said, why I remember that? And can I get 18 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: that out of my head? Stop collaborate and listen, I 19 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 1: yelled out, But he didn't respond in anyway. I was 20 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,039 Speaker 1: hoping to get a response. Too bad. But why is 21 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 1: Ice our general manager today? Well, Immigrations and Customs Enforcement 22 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,160 Speaker 1: in their efforts to round up illegals and criminals and 23 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,399 Speaker 1: criminal illegals is running into more and more opposition, violence, controversy. 24 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: This story is doing nothing but getting bigger. Why do 25 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: you know the real name of Vanilla Ice is a 26 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: good I can't imagine, cannot effing that's funny because I 27 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: came up with my son, I said, what's his real name? 28 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: I said, my partner, Joe always calls these people by third, 29 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: that's right. And he said, I don't know Combs recently 30 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: acquitted in a Manhattan court room. But uh, I said, 31 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: you know who else knows? Is your uncle Joe? Your 32 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,320 Speaker 1: uncle Joe if he was here right now, he'd be 33 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 1: calling him by Also what you say for the olysis 34 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:19,960 Speaker 1: really Robert van Winkle, Roberts nice Lamborghini, Robert. Okay, So 35 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: we got that story. That's a good one. I also 36 00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 1: want to get into at some point the what is 37 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: putin up to? What's his theory? When Trump has clearly 38 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,800 Speaker 1: turned corner on this whole story and he's upping his attacks, 39 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,480 Speaker 1: what read the mind? Of Vladimir Putin, what does he 40 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 1: think is gonna happen here? Yeah, well, that's a great question. 41 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,160 Speaker 1: I suspect he's in a wait and see posture. He's 42 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: not quite sure what will happen given Trump's volatility, and 43 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 1: he wants to find out now he has We've discussed 44 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 1: for years and years. Putin thrusts and thrusts with his sword, 45 00:02:56,600 --> 00:02:59,639 Speaker 1: trying to find weakness and softness, and that's what he's 46 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: doing right now with Trump. 47 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:01,000 Speaker 2: Yeah. 48 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,359 Speaker 1: Well, hey, Ian Bremer had a tweet last night he said, 49 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 1: I think I think Putin's misreading the situation. I think 50 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: he might be two If you been following Trump over 51 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,799 Speaker 1: the years. Iran Sulimani a couple other situations. When Trump 52 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 1: makes the turn, he makes the turn, and he does 53 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:22,440 Speaker 1: things whether the you know, the world likes it or not. Yeah, 54 00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:25,320 Speaker 1: and Ian might be one hundred percent right. But Putin 55 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 1: is kind of the anti Biden. He will go with 56 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: a maximalist policy. He will push hard and push and 57 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: push until he provokes a response. Then he studies the response, 58 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: as opposed to Biden, for instance, who would never do 59 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: anything practically and would just beg people not to do anything. 60 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: So yeah. Yeah. And the danger of that, of course, 61 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:48,280 Speaker 1: is that you push too far, too fast, and you 62 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,280 Speaker 1: have a maniac on the other side who responds in kind. 63 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,840 Speaker 1: Jo calls Trump maniac. Headlines quote, there's quotes, There are quotes, 64 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: so I think it wouldn't be a maniac response and 65 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: be the logical response to stop the the actual maniac putin. 66 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: I also think there's a coordination there. I doubt it's 67 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: an accident that you know, they'll launch a three hundred 68 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 1: drone strike and get the headline biggest strike since war began, 69 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: then launch a three hundred and fifty drone strike two 70 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: days later and get the headline biggest strike since war began. 71 00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 1: That can't be an accident. That they're ratcheting up little 72 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 1: by little so they always get that headline, like two 73 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: nights ago, seven hundred drones, biggest strike since war began. 74 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: That's got to be on purpose. He wants the headline 75 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,920 Speaker 1: around the world. I think he thinks it's going to 76 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: make the world think, Wow, this guy's serious. We better 77 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 1: back off or something. Yeah. Alternate theory. I was just 78 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: reading how the Russians drone building capabilities are increasing in 79 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: an impressive way on an impressive scale, and I wonder 80 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:52,920 Speaker 1: if they're just their capabilities are increasing like that. So yeah, 81 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: they keep setting records because they can, but I don't know, 82 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: could be. McCrone was in London last couple of days, 83 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: meeting with the Prime Minister there and they made some 84 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 1: announcements together that are pretty pretty strong, world changing, possibly 85 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 1: sort of statements out of there. So we'll get to 86 00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 1: that a little bit later. One interesting nugget on that 87 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:16,320 Speaker 1: before we get to the opening clip is they're they're 88 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,360 Speaker 1: in I guess it's in uh what do they meet, 89 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: Buckingham Palace, wherever they meet Parliament? I guess in Parliament. 90 00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm a big London I the ferris wheel go round 91 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: and round. I enjoy the view. Wherever they met, there 92 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: are two great, big paintings, one of them of when 93 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: Napoleon's defeated Waterloo at the hands of the Brits and 94 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: then a different major British beat in the French like 95 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: three hundred years ago painting. And I guess in the 96 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: past they've covered those paintings up when the leader of 97 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 1: France would come it's like, you know, don't rub their 98 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:56,919 Speaker 1: face in it. But in this time they didn't and 99 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if that's a big 100 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 1: deal or not. I don't know if they'll harbor would 101 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: you would you still be upset about Napoleon's the feet? 102 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 1: If you're Macrone, I just find that hard to believe. 103 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 1: You know, if I steal my buddy's wife, I'm probably 104 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:10,920 Speaker 1: not gonna have her greet him at the door every 105 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,359 Speaker 1: time he comes. Well, how about you know what I mean, 106 00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: how about two hundred and fifty years later, let's let 107 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: buy guns. I would think you should have fought better friendship. 108 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 1: All right, let's get down to business. Anyway, let's get 109 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: to start the show. Officially. We got a good one today. 110 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: I'm Jack Armstrong.

What conflicts violence and 119 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: at work? Kind of opening clip? Was that? What was that? 120 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,679 Speaker 4: The world's greatest golf fight of all time. 121 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:13,720 Speaker 1: Golf course. Yeah, let me take over here. So golf 122 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,680 Speaker 1: course fights a great online genre for videos of things 123 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: at work. Here a couple of factors. Let's let me 124 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: get out the telestrainer. You got a lot of males, 125 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: You got a lot of men out there. Okay, I'm guessing. 126 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: There we go. I'm circling the men feeling. There's one 127 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: more element that's common. There is frequently alcohol on the 128 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: golf course. People drink beer. Here's a picture of a beer. 129 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: Let me circle the beer, draw a line to the men. 130 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,400 Speaker 1: The men consumed the beer, and then somebody hits golf 131 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: ball which could really hurt somebody or even consumably kill them. 132 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 1: Sure into another group and or are just playing very 133 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:54,160 Speaker 1: slowly and get ribbed over and over again. Testosterol plus 134 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,560 Speaker 1: alcohol plus golf course equals fisticuffs. But I haven't seen 135 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: the video, Katie, that we go. I'm sorry, we go 136 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: live to our golf fight correspondent, Katie Green. 137 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: Thank you, Joe Eddy. 138 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 4: Yes, you can see the fight video at Katie's corner 139 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 4: at Armstrong Eddy dot com. These two guys, it was 140 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 4: the situation you just mentioned playing too slow. The group 141 00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 4: of guys behind them are the ones that you're you're hearing. 142 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 3: Get off the course. They're yelling at them. 143 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, is that to get your face beat in a fence? 144 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: Playing too slow? Uh no, but you could be urged 145 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 1: to speed it up. The golf course management ought to 146 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: step in. The marshals how to come out and deal 147 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: with that. But anyway, so no they obviously no, you 148 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 1: don't run up to them and punch him in the face. 149 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: Things escalate, yes, words are exchanged. 150 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 4: This video started clearly well into this conflict, but the 151 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 4: two guys that are playing. 152 00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,960 Speaker 3: Too slow are also clearly way too drunk to be 153 00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 3: out there, and. 154 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 4: The smaller of the two decides to charge at the 155 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 4: really big, angry guy who's telling them to. 156 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 1: Move it along, who happens to be. 157 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 4: NFL star or NHL star. Excuse me, Nick TARNASKI. 158 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: Don't fight hockey players. Oh. My brother used to manage 159 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: a bar in Wichitah where the minor league hockey team 160 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: would come afterwards, and regularly people would get in fights 161 00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: with hockey players, not realizing they were fighting hockey players 162 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 1: who fight for a living. That's how you get paid 163 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 1: to do. His fight you don't want to fight people 164 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 1: who get paid to fight.

Our text line is four one 221 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: five two nine five KFTC. We're coming up on the 222 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: one year anniversary of one of the craziest several days 223 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,640 Speaker 1: in US history, the one year anniversary of Trump almost 224 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: being assassinated and then immediately into the Republican Convention and 225 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: Biden and the debate and you know everything that followed. 226 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:47,720 Speaker 1: But six Secret Service personnel were suspended yesterday around that 227 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 1: and I got some inside information about that. That's really 228 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: damned interesting. I didn't know there was anything new to 229 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,960 Speaker 1: learn about that, But we'll get to that coming up. 230 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:02,479 Speaker 1: What could they have learned or acted upon so recently 231 00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: that they shouldn't have known within seventy two hours. It's 232 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: not like twelve hours. That's the question in my mind. Right. 233 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,320 Speaker 1: We will answer it, I hope. First though, let's figure 234 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 1: out who's reporting what. It's the lead story with Katie 235 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:18,679 Speaker 1: Green Katie Take it Away, starting. 236 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 3: With NBC News. 237 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 4: Texas flood's death toll rises to one hundred and twenty 238 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 4: as rescue operations. 239 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 1: Shift to recovery phase. Do you have much time for 240 00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: the trying to turn this into a political issue. I 241 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:34,000 Speaker 1: just do not. I've not spent much effort on that. No, 242 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: I've been aware of it. It's disgusting, it's obvious. It's 243 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: there's on the Democrats side, they're stretching it as far 244 00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:44,360 Speaker 1: as they possibly can to blame Greg Abbott and Ted 245 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: Cruz and climate change and whatever. Right. I saw a 246 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 1: good list yesterday. It was just from National Review that 247 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:55,680 Speaker 1: a number of over the last couple of decades, natural 248 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,240 Speaker 1: disasters that happened when a Republican president that becomes a 249 00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: giant political issue, and what the Republican president did wrong 250 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,600 Speaker 1: versus natural disasters that happened when a Democrats president, and 251 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: it's just chalked up to nature, right, or it's still 252 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:13,280 Speaker 1: Republican's fault because of climate change for instance, rights or 253 00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 1: something like that. Yes, either way, it's Republican's fault. 254 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:21,760 Speaker 4: ABC News Russia kills two in Kiev in quote obvious 255 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 4: escalation of terror according to his Zelenski exactly. 256 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: That was my point is it's an obvious escalation. It's 257 00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 1: like I'm going further. I'm going to go even further 258 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: in spite of what Trump is saying. So what is 259 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 1: the plan there from Putin? That's a fascinating story. 260 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 3: CNN. 261 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,080 Speaker 4: Biden's physician refuses to answer questions from Republicans and House 262 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,800 Speaker 4: probe of former president's mental fitness. 263 00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, not surprising. He was never going to say anything 264 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 1: between HIPPA and the Fifth Amendment. It's just this is silly. 265 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:58,680 Speaker 1: It's yes, he was completely senile, and everybody from the 266 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: family to the cabin to the closest advisors hid it 267 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,680 Speaker 1: from the American people and lied constantly with the complicity 268 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: of the press. Guilty. And this is the third or 269 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,480 Speaker 1: fourth time this has happened in the last one hundred years, 270 00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: so it's not exactly brand new as a strategy. And 271 00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: understand me, I'm not saying it's not a huge deal 272 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 1: in scandalous and terrible, but we all know with one 273 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: hundred percent certainty, and we know who was involved, including 274 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 1: this doctor's die job is highly suspicious. Just ready to 275 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:35,880 Speaker 1: go for exercises. Hair. Oh, it's terrible. It has like 276 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 1: the haircut of an eight year old boy in nineteen 277 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: sixty four. I mean, it's just a terrible look. But no, 278 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 1: nothing is going to come up. That's an interesting critique. 279 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 3: From the Washington Post. 280 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 4: Trump announces fifty percent tariff on Brazil, citing the trial. 281 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:59,560 Speaker 1: Of President Yeah, that's not my favorite Trump story from. 282 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 4: The New York Jealous ex wife allegedly spied on former 283 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 4: husband and new family inside of home for over seven 284 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 4: hundred hours by tapping into ring cameras. 285 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:17,120 Speaker 1: Wow, oh wow, funny. I was just closing the tab 286 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 1: we were talking about yesterday about how all of your 287 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 1: smart devices are constantly reporting on you constantly, But I 288 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: hadn't thought of that. I would like to hear more 289 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: about the whole smart device spying on me thing. I 290 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: had a friend who was really big on putting tape 291 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 1: over their cameras and uh and or short circuiting the 292 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 1: audio speaker and stuff like that. And I thought that 293 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: was paranoid, but maybe not. 294 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 4: And finally, from the Babylon b after tsa shoe policy change, 295 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 4: production finally resumes at Crazy Mohammed's shoebomb factory. 296 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: Oh whoa, whoa, whoa, that's that's etchy. Alright, I appreciate it. Yeah, 297 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: As Joe made the point the other day, if the 298 00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:00,440 Speaker 1: guy had tried twenty five years ago to blow up 299 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 1: a plane with earbuds that were bombs, you wouldn't be 300 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 1: allowed to take earbuds on a plane, and everybody would 301 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,879 Speaker 1: be listening to their audio through their speaker out loud 302 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: and carrying on their conversation, walking through security with shoes 303 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: on all this time. So it's just, you know, it's 304 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 1: kind of an odd reaction the way we do things. 305 00:17:19,000 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 1: There's plenty of news to get to and we'll do 306 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 1: that coming up if you miss it. Gets the podcast 307 00:17:25,160 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty. 308 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,240 Speaker 2: A new declaration in Mexico gives nineteen cats roaming the 309 00:17:31,280 --> 00:17:38,440 Speaker 2: Presidential Palace food and care forever. That's cute in gratitude, 310 00:17:38,480 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 2: the cats will act like they want you to rub 311 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,560 Speaker 2: their belly. Then if you do, claw the Bejesus out 312 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:43,080 Speaker 2: of your arm. 313 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: True, I do not understand you people who feed feral cats. Ah, 314 00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 1: we got a couple in my neighborhood. Luckily it's a 315 00:17:53,080 --> 00:17:56,959 Speaker 1: couple of blocks from my house, but my son actually 316 00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: got attacked. As overstating it, but the cat ran at him, 317 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: jumped on him and scratched up his legs. So that 318 00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 1: is an attack. It's an attack. But I don't want 319 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: to make it sound like he was attacked by a 320 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:09,919 Speaker 1: lion or something. But it was a cat and he 321 00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 1: got scratched up, and nobody wants that to happen. It 322 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,439 Speaker 1: did easy feral cats. And every night, it seems like 323 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: around sundown when everybody's out walking their dogs in the 324 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 1: neighborhoods full of people like that, there's always different people 325 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 1: gathered around this one tree putting food out for these cats, 326 00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 1: and they just are amazed by the existence of these 327 00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 1: feral cats and feeding them and nourishing their lives. They're wild, 328 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 1: dangerous cats. And well, okay, yeah, that that's another element. 329 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:47,520 Speaker 1: But there's I could how about I should pick you 330 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 1: up in my car.

Drive you to the local shelter where there 332 00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:54,800 Speaker 1: are like a thousand really nice house cats that are 333 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: going to be put to sleep that you could take 334 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: in if you want that. Aren't going to attack anyone, 335 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 1: You feral cat people, What is your deal? I know 336 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 1: there's a similar phenomenon in my neighborhood. There are a 337 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,439 Speaker 1: group of gals. There may have been a dude involved, 338 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: but I think it was all gals who actually built 339 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:17,760 Speaker 1: built a clandestine shelter for the feral cats, like a 340 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: house for them, and when it was discovered, it was like, 341 00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,600 Speaker 1: you can't do that. But they're utterly dedicated to feeding 342 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 1: and medicating they. I think they have a spade neutered, 343 00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: which is good. Well, that's great, but I don't get 344 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 1: it at all. Yeah. I mean, if you have a 345 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 1: like a big rat problem or something, all right, we 346 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 1: can talk. But yeah, I don't. I don't get you. 347 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:43,159 Speaker 1: Let me tell you this, the faral cat invites me. 348 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: If I can't, I'm gonna kick the living crap out 349 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 1: of that thing. Well, you murdered a rooster for attacking 350 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 1: your son. I don't need to be gets off scott Free. 351 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:56,280 Speaker 1: I need to be attacked by wildcats. No, no, I 352 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,760 Speaker 1: think that would have been dealt with harshly in my 353 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 1: Anny who I got us off track? Yes you did. So. 354 00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: We mentioned briefly the inevitable, idiotic, immoral politicization of the 355 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: Texas floods. America does have a problem with emergency warning systems, 356 00:20:18,840 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 1: as the people of Pacific Palisades. I actually have a 357 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: bunch of different examples of that, and I do want 358 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: to get to that. We seem unable as a country 359 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,280 Speaker 1: to come up with a way to have emergency warnings 360 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: that work well. I was talking to a radio insider 361 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:40,679 Speaker 1: who said everything in the emergency broadcast system worked the 362 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 1: way it is designed to work around this particular story. 363 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 1: It's just some of the stuff that we talked about 364 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: the other day. People go to these camps specifically to 365 00:20:50,960 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 1: get away from their smartphones. So everybody puts their smartphones 366 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 1: away and or both. You're somewhere where you don't get 367 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: smart phone signal, and you know, we've all come to 368 00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 1: rely on our smartphones for any information. So if people 369 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: are going to put those away, what's your alert system 370 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,879 Speaker 1: going to be? I didn't talk about I grew up 371 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: in the middle of nowhere where you had town siren 372 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:17,680 Speaker 1: for all kinds of different things, and that's been done 373 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:20,800 Speaker 1: away with a lot of places because of the smartphone 374 00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: alert system. You'd feel like, well, you don't need the 375 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,239 Speaker 1: town siren anymore. But the town siren's pretty good if 376 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,399 Speaker 1: you don't have your phone. And if you're in a 377 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 1: very rural area like Kirk County, Texas, the river country 378 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:35,920 Speaker 1: there but is pretty heavily populated in the summertime with campers, 379 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: what sort of systems you need there? And one had 380 00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,439 Speaker 1: been green lighted to be studied or something, but they 381 00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 1: hadn't gotten around to building it yet. But Wall Street 382 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:53,520 Speaker 1: Journal was talking about how time after time, like fire 383 00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:55,639 Speaker 1: evacuation warnings in the Alta d in the neighborhood of 384 00:21:55,800 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: La arrived too late. Across the Pacific, Maui's outdoor sirens 385 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,040 Speaker 1: never sounded two years ago, remember that when those horrific, 386 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: deadly wildfires approached the edge that's Hawaiian Island. And they 387 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:12,919 Speaker 1: give a couple more examples too. But between the over 388 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 1: lapping patchwork of technologies that Jack was just discussing, and 389 00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 1: let's not leave out radio AM, radio especially which is 390 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: still a major part of the emergency broadcast system and 391 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: worked pretty well. But obviously you've got to have your 392 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: radio on. So anyway, it's a real change. Seconding you 393 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: telling me a bunch of children campers didn't have AM 394 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: radios with them at camp? What fun is camp without 395 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:40,120 Speaker 1: listening to AM radio? Please? Can we listen to talk radio? 396 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:41,239 Speaker 4: Now? 397 00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: We've got a go canoeing? 398 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 3: What do armstrong? 399 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,120 Speaker 1: You get? You think of the tariffs right right? Poor 400 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: little kids denying them that pleasure. So anyway, what we 401 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,520 Speaker 1: do about this, if we do anything about it, and 402 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:58,160 Speaker 1: we probably won't, is anybody's guess. But I am tempted 403 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 1: to advocate something exceedingly simple and technology free like the 404 00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,840 Speaker 1: town siren. Now how that applies in a rural area 405 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,680 Speaker 1: like this. There are ways to adapt it, I would think. 406 00:23:15,960 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: But if you have catastrophic flood issues in a particular 407 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,679 Speaker 1: area and everybody knows it, you have one tower that 408 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 1: has a siren, and the emergency management to people in 409 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 1: that county have the responsibility to set it off every mile. 410 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 1: Cases they don't, every so many miles you do because 411 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,719 Speaker 1: you can hear these sirens. Having grown up with this, 412 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,720 Speaker 1: you can hear them for a very long way away. 413 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: We lived several miles outside of town, and we heard 414 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: the noon whistle every day. Yeah. Another related story on 415 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: the I was taking shots at left wing wackadoodles only 416 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: moments ago on the quote unquote, I guess right wing 417 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 1: conspiracy theory side of things. They are running hot and heavy, 418 00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 1: and this poor son of a gun he runs. His 419 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:09,360 Speaker 1: name is Augustus Dorico. He's a young entrepreneur, a scientist. 420 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 1: He's started a cloud seating company, rain Maker, that had 421 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: actually been operating in Texas, not terribly far from you 422 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 1: know where the terrible flooding occurred. Uh And and because 423 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,280 Speaker 1: of this, the Internet has decided that he caused the 424 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 1: catastrophic flooding and is responsible for the murder of all 425 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 1: those children. Oh my god. Of course, as he pointed out, 426 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:37,960 Speaker 1: the most the most successful experiment in the history of 427 00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 1: our country, our company rather yielded a like an infinitesimal 428 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:47,600 Speaker 1: uh fraction the rainfall that came right. I was gonna say, 429 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,439 Speaker 1: much Ley, we couldn't do that if we wanted. My 430 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,440 Speaker 1: knowledge of cloud seating is that it's not that effective. 431 00:24:55,240 --> 00:25:02,240 Speaker 1: So yeah, he's not the blame uh one. Prominent conspiracy 432 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 1: influencer on X in a post that received two point 433 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 1: six million views. I'm gonna try to figure out who 434 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 1: it was. Meet Augustus Dorico, twenty five year old tech 435 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 1: pro and thel fellow who founded the weather modification startup 436 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: brain Maker. Why is a billionaire funding private weather experiments 437 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: in Texas? Texas got biblical flooding, fake weather, fake hurricanes, 438 00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: fake flooding, fake fake fake, wrote Republican congressional candidate Candice 439 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:35,159 Speaker 1: Taylor on X. And this guy's getting death threats round 440 00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: the clock. I don't like the term weather modification. I 441 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 1: don't think we need to be doing that. Yeah, yeah, 442 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:44,639 Speaker 1: so the Internet goes wild. And one more story. We 443 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 1: don't have time for this, but I thought it was 444 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:50,719 Speaker 1: really interesting. Chris Martz wrote a piece for The Free Beacon. 445 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:56,160 Speaker 1: He is, he's got a degree in meteorological science, and 446 00:25:56,640 --> 00:26:03,120 Speaker 1: he just by following the evidence, became very skeptical of 447 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 1: the conventional claims about climate change and man causing it 448 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: and what could be done about and that sort of stuff, 449 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 1: a topic we've talked about many, many times. And he 450 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 1: was shocked. And most of this piece is about how 451 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: he has been targeted and ridiculed and docked, and people 452 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 1: have tried to ruin his career and the rest of 453 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:31,440 Speaker 1: it merely for asking difficult questions about data. And it's 454 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 1: now happened a couple of times, I think with enough 455 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: clarity that all of us are starting to wake up 456 00:26:35,760 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: to it. The COVID thing was a perfect example. The 457 00:26:41,359 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 1: very nature of science is questioning what was believed before 458 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 1: and experimenting and looking at data and uncovering new truths. Wrong. 459 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 3: Wrong. 460 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: The sun revolves around the Earth and we're sticking with that. 461 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: Anybody who says any different should be hung upside down, right, 462 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,560 Speaker 1: And one of the highest goals of some science is 463 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 1: to figure out that what we used to believe is wrong. 464 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,240 Speaker 1: That's what science is. But here are a couple of 465 00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 1: examples where any questioning of the conventional wisdom is treated 466 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: like heresy. And I use that term advisor, right. Yeah, 467 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: it is challenging the very god we worship. And you 468 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 1: will be banned, you'll be except communicated, you will be 469 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 1: burnt at this steak. And they haven't actually set this 470 00:27:28,760 --> 00:27:31,439 Speaker 1: guy on fire yet. But career wise, it's been a 471 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 1: hell of a battle that quasi religious like poisoning of 472 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 1: science and what it is. We've seen that a couple 473 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 1: of times now. And whenever you see that man get 474 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: you get your your spider sense up, or your fur 475 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,960 Speaker 1: on the back of your neck, or getting a fighting 476 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:53,400 Speaker 1: posture or I don't know, load your weapons. Uh load. 477 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: That is an unholy perversion of science. And no, I 478 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,199 Speaker 1: don't work for an oil company. I don't care what 479 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: the truth is. I just want to know what the 480 00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:06,679 Speaker 1: truth is. I represent science and that's the last effing 481 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: thing you represent. You wuhan virus modifying murderer. Wow? Wow, 482 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: I stand by those words. There's a new Superman movie 483 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,720 Speaker 1: out that's getting a lot of attention. Maybe tell you 484 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 1: about that coming up if you're that oh oh oh, 485 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 1: have you heard about what the woke director said? No? 486 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,240 Speaker 1: I have not. Oh you got to do this? Why 487 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,960 Speaker 1: do you got to do this? Why can't I God, 488 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: why can't my kid just go to Superman without knowing 489 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: what the wolke director said about? And hell, if you 490 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,760 Speaker 1: want to turn your son into communists, send them to 491 00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: the communist Superman movie. Go ahead, Okay, we got mail 492 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:54,479 Speaker 1: Pak coming up. Stay here. Speaking of Russian bullspit uh 493 00:28:54,880 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: Marco Rubio's meeting with Lavrov, the spokesman for Putin, who 494 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: is the all time bs or in world history practically, 495 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 1: and Marco Ruby, who ain't the kind of guy that 496 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: puts up with that much. I don't know what his 497 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 1: marching orders are from Trump, but no, he knows exactly 498 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: who Lavrov because he's the foreign minister and has been 499 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: for twenty five thirty years something like that. I mean, 500 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: he is completely full of crap, that guy. Oh my goodness. Yeah, 501 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: it'll be interesting to see what comes out of that. Indeed, Yeah, 502 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:29,520 Speaker 1: something guaranteed significant will come out of that. Here's your 503 00:29:29,560 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: freedom loving quote of today from Thomas Sowell, continuing the 504 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: series The Great Man, the Great Thinker, celebrating his ninety 505 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: fifth birthday. Oh, we're on vacation, and a funny coincidence. 506 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: The next and the list of quotes I had compiled 507 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 1: is some things must be done on faith, but the 508 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: most dangerous kind of faith is that which masquerades as science. 509 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 1: In quotes exactly what we were just talking about. Wow. 510 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 1: Then the next quote in the list, yet more on it. No, 511 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: it's just really interesting. Ye, it's funny coincidence. And his 512 00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 1: next quote is it takes considerable knowledge just to realize 513 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 1: the extent of your own ignorance, and it's funny another coincidence. 514 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: I've said more than once that I've realized I have 515 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:20,800 Speaker 1: the most depressing level of intelligence. I'm just bright enough 516 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: to understand how dumb I am. I mean, For instance, 517 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: we got an email from a listener. We're gonna get 518 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: the mailbag in a second. We got an email from 519 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: a listener with a set of arguments on a really 520 00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: intriguing topic. And I understood them. I understood how astute 521 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 1: they were and clever they were, and I also understood 522 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: that I never could have come up with them. So 523 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: I sit here depressed. Not a hell with it. You 524 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 1: play the cards. You're tell best today. 525 00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,959 Speaker 3: Whoa, whoa? 526 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: I guess we'll do a mail bag now. Would drop 527 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: us a note mail bag at Armstrong and get it 528 00:30:56,640 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 1: dot com. We'll get to those brilliant arguments down the 529 00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 1: road later. On the topic of Mamdani and a Marxist dad, 530 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: the president of the mayoral candidate in New York City 531 00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 1: is getting so much attention. If you don't think it's 532 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,480 Speaker 1: a big deal that a communist is about to become 533 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: the mayor of the most important city on Earth, you 534 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 1: are even dopier than I am. In nineteen seventy two, 535 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: Edia Mean expelled all Indians and South Asians from Uganda. 536 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: They've been there for generations, originally building railroads for the Brits. 537 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 1: They prospered, bird became a class of merchants, farmers, and 538 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: civil employees. Amn's a mean stole all their property and 539 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: blamed them for being racists. The Indians migrated all over 540 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: the world, and Mamdani's dad came to the US and 541 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 1: became a Marxist professor. His story is to blame everything 542 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,440 Speaker 1: on colonialism to justify marx not dictators, not racial and 543 00:31:49,480 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 1: religious bigotry. He's a Muslim, not a big fan of 544 00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:54,880 Speaker 1: the Jews, so that wouldn't work. The biggest tyrant is 545 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 1: that his son's politics use some of Ediaman's policies and rationales, 546 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 1: like blaming one race over another for lack of success, 547 00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:05,440 Speaker 1: taking private property for greater good, et cetera. Only an 548 00:32:05,440 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 1: intellectual could believe this stuff. I agree, well, said my 549 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: friend Adam writes, guys, you were talking about your data 550 00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:18,480 Speaker 1: stealing toasters and TVs and ring doorbells and the rest 551 00:32:18,480 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: of it. The giant CD enterprise of data collectors. It 552 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,959 Speaker 1: aligns with what I've been saying about the burger clown. 553 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 1: Many restaurants now have rewards apps, but they're blatant. They 554 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 1: have price differences if you don't share your valuable guilty time, 555 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:38,520 Speaker 1: pleasure time habits with them. Well, I've not downloaded the 556 00:32:38,560 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: McDonald's app because I feel like that would be crossing 557 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: a line for me, but dietarily not like data. Yeah, 558 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,840 Speaker 1: I hadn't thought about it, but I'm sure it's one 559 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: of those apps that you're given over all kinds of 560 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 1: information by downloading the app, and they push it hard. 561 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: Every time you go pull up to the McDonald's drive through, 562 00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: they say, well, are you ordering with the app today? 563 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:00,840 Speaker 1: To let you know that have the app, that's the 564 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 1: first thing that they say to you. And if you 565 00:33:03,040 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 1: opt in, they take all of your data and give 566 00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:07,239 Speaker 1: you a little discount. Yeah, because you're probably selling your 567 00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,440 Speaker 1: data for much much more than the little discount. Yeah, 568 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 1: there's more money in the app than there is and 569 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:15,040 Speaker 1: whatever meal you're about to order. Wow. Yeah, I wonder 570 00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:18,800 Speaker 1: what the profit margin is? I mean, because what's the 571 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 1: cost associated with developing the app spread over millions of customers? 572 00:33:23,520 --> 00:33:27,480 Speaker 1: Practically enough? Ada McDonald's with the kids night before last. Delicious. 573 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: Gotta tell you didn't taste like a burger, but Delicious 574 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 1: cost fifty dollars. All we got was cheeseburgers, a couple 575 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:37,640 Speaker 1: of fries, and waters fifty bucks. Another Jay in San 576 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: Jose writes, train your AI dragon. Having gone through all 577 00:33:41,600 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: the upgrades over the last three decades of technology changes 578 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 1: in the workforce, we learned that crap in eagles crap 579 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: out right. If we've put bad data in a system, 580 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 1: we get bad results. Groc that was spouting is spouting 581 00:33:52,840 --> 00:33:55,120 Speaker 1: anti Semitism and up with Hitler stuff and the rest 582 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: of it. The other day, Let's see Groc is looking worldwide, 583 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:02,560 Speaker 1: including outside of the US. Huge numbers of Muslims and others 584 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:04,959 Speaker 1: don't like Jews, and that sentiment probably shows up when 585 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,640 Speaker 1: Groc is trolling for all the data or not. That's 586 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 1: why that listener yesterday was telling you to train your dragon. 587 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:14,160 Speaker 1: You can't just let him fly around eating everything. Well. 588 00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:17,680 Speaker 1: Groc is Elon's outfit here was originally with open ai, 589 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,560 Speaker 1: but left them when they decided to be a for 590 00:34:19,600 --> 00:34:23,360 Speaker 1: profit business. Open Ai is about to release their AI 591 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 1: powered web browser that is supposed to challenge Google. So 592 00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 1: Google is in a bad spot, all right, need to 593 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: get to these let's see. Jennifer points out the government 594 00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 1: needs to delve into the abuse of social security numbers, 595 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,439 Speaker 1: start tracking down illegals, using them fraudulently, and deport them. Yeah, 596 00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: I want to get to that. Identity theft is a 597 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: huge scandal that's never talked about with illegal immigration. Then 598 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 1: I needed to get to this. I absolutely love it. 599 00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,240 Speaker 1: Marilyn is listening to the show I Believe in Beautiful 600 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: San Diego. That's correct, and her Jack report that Tony 601 00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 1: Sirico of the Sopranos has just died, but died in 602 00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, and she's wondering why the Fabulous Patriot 603 00:35:04,520 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 1: AM thirteen sixty is playing years old reruns of the 604 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:15,759 Speaker 1: Armstrong and Getty Show. Marilyn, They're not playing rerun. We 605 00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:19,080 Speaker 1: just got I don't know, duped into thinking he just 606 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:21,800 Speaker 1: died or had forgotten he died the second time in 607 00:35:21,840 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: a year. We've gotten a celebrity death wrong. 608 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 4: We got to get better, be better, Armstrong and Getty
