Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe, Ketty.
Speaker 2: Arm Strong and Katty and now he Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 2: I feel I get some more egregious this year, even
Speaker 2: than the year's past. News outlets trying to pretend that
Speaker 2: the female version of March Madness is every bit as
Speaker 2: big a deal as the men's version of March Madness. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I've seen a couple of times where they tease,
Speaker 2: coming up, how's your bracket looking? And then when they
Speaker 2: come back, Yukon continues to dominate the bracket in the
Speaker 2: women's NCAA tournament. They do that first and then do
Speaker 2: the men's I mean, who are you kidding here? Who
Speaker 2: are you kidding?
Speaker 3: Wow?
Speaker 2: I mean it's just if women's basketball were more pop
Speaker 2: be than men's I'd be happy to say it. It
Speaker 2: doesn't bother me. But it's not. It's just and it's
Speaker 2: not even close. I mean, the attendance, the ratings, they're
Speaker 2: not even in the same Ballparker league as a thing,
Speaker 2: So why pretend that it is. I saw it. I
Speaker 2: saw Bill burd the comedian other night. He was talking
Speaker 2: about this. He was talking about the w NBA and
Speaker 2: uh and players were angry about the crowds, and he
Speaker 2: was saying, wemen, do we have to do everything so
Speaker 2: we have to go to your games for you? Because
Speaker 2: the women aren't filling the stadiums to go watch their
Speaker 2: fellow women play, They're going to men's games. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: know lots of women that are super big college basketball
Speaker 2: fans men's college basketball fans. Yeah, it's not. There's nothing
Speaker 2: wrong with the fact that, for whatever reason, the men's
Speaker 2: version is more popular by a lot.
Speaker 3: There are several reasons.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yes, we're aware that when Caitlin Clark was
Speaker 1: in the final the ratings were fantastic.
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah. But yeah, it's it's an odd, odd thing.
Speaker 2: But why pretend, why lead with the women's and act
Speaker 2: like that, That's what everybody's waiting through the commercials for.
Speaker 1: It's the sort of people of the left who equate
Speaker 1: the word equal with the same that if women have
Speaker 1: an equal right to sports, if not as many people.
Speaker 3: Go to watch them or watch them on.
Speaker 1: TV, that's proof that it's some sort of discrimination or injustice. No,
Speaker 1: men and women should be equal, but not the same
Speaker 1: equal opportunities, equal rights, but not the same.
Speaker 3: That's a bizarre notion. Anyway.
Speaker 1: I just had a very funny AI moment Apple now
Speaker 1: in their struggle to get AI going and working with
Speaker 1: Google and all will give you. I think it was
Speaker 1: on lock screen a summary of a text if you're
Speaker 1: just looking, you know at oh, I'm the text coming,
Speaker 1: And the summary of the text was twice as long.
Speaker 3: As the actual text. That was funny.
Speaker 1: The actual the text of the text was go ahead,
Speaker 1: and the summary was encouraged to continue.
Speaker 2: I find that sometimes the summary of an email or
Speaker 2: a text looks really harsh, and I think, uh oh,
Speaker 2: And then it's a very lighthearted reply, like what why
Speaker 2: did you make it seem like? All right, rejection of
Speaker 2: your proposal?
Speaker 3: Uh? Okay?
Speaker 1: Coming up some really good stuff from the best heckler
Speaker 1: in baseball, just hilariously funny and all sorts of good
Speaker 1: stuff to squeeze into the final hour.
Speaker 3: Of the week. But first, let's take fun look back
Speaker 3: at the week that was.
Speaker 1: It's cow clips of the Week.
Speaker 4: A.
Speaker 5: Week this lesbian has had plenty of girlfriends with penises.
Speaker 2: I can't explain that you know a person living like
Speaker 2: a rot. It pieces me off. That's what I say.
Speaker 3: What should I do?
Speaker 2: If it's telling the clean.
Speaker 6: We cannot incarcelrate our weight out of violence.
Speaker 3: We've already tried that.
Speaker 2: It is racist, it is immoral, unholy. You must be happy.
Speaker 2: I'm very happy ya Tola is dead. I'm what too?
Speaker 2: What what is that?
Speaker 3: Who does?
Speaker 2: I otola e street fan is coming your way and
Speaker 2: we are bringing over fear peace over. This thing is
Speaker 2: going to be settled very soon. We did a Yojima.
Speaker 3: We can do this the Marines.
Speaker 2: My money is always on the Marine and the grand
Speaker 2: scheme of things. Fast wars just don't happen, and they're
Speaker 2: not easily resolved. Makes you trust I don't trust anybody,
Speaker 2: don't trust you. I'm never in all.
Speaker 3: The work I've ever done in the energy, and they
Speaker 3: do nothing but lie for their teeth.
Speaker 2: We're gonna end up with settling this. Otherwise we just
Speaker 2: keep bombing our little hearts out.
Speaker 4: Sometimes you have to escalate to de escaletor But I
Speaker 4: really hope the American people will be with him because
Speaker 4: he's doing this to make the whole real safer him.
Speaker 5: We are an idea that threatens I wrong, that threatens this.
Speaker 2: Regime because we are are open, we are progressive. They
Speaker 2: want to make a deal.
Speaker 7: The reason they want to make a deal is they
Speaker 7: have been just bigtish.
Speaker 2: North doesn't do them wrong. It was right, I'll do
Speaker 2: that to our national clips of the week.
Speaker 1: That reminds me I was going to say, and that
Speaker 1: many regimes around the world that I would be executed
Speaker 1: for slaughtering the national anthem like that, which reminded me.
Speaker 1: It's becoming pretty clear who the next leader of North
Speaker 1: Korea is going to be.
Speaker 2: And it's fat Head's thirteen year old daughter. Yeah, I
Speaker 2: saw that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, we're all familiar with the concept of
Speaker 1: mean girls, but she's going to be a mean girl.
Speaker 2: Well, why do you suppose he did that? Does she
Speaker 2: just shows a certain promise or.
Speaker 1: Yes, it's got to be she has the qualities or
Speaker 1: gets it at that tender age of what the family
Speaker 1: business is, because for a while it was supposed to
Speaker 1: be his sister.
Speaker 3: But they're roughly the same age.
Speaker 2: I wonder if it's just somebody young enough they're not
Speaker 2: a threat yet, you don't have to worry about them
Speaker 2: consolidating power and offering you.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's surprising to a lot of career watchers
Speaker 1: that it's a female, but whatever.
Speaker 2: So the clip we played in there of the Mayor
Speaker 2: of Chicago saying we can't incarcerate ourselves out of this problem.
Speaker 2: That whole you know, jailing people hasn't worked. It actually
Speaker 2: did work very very well. We started jailing the hell
Speaker 2: out of people like in the seventies, and then crime
Speaker 2: dropped like crazy over the eighties and nineties two thousands.
Speaker 2: Then we decided to go back to the other direction
Speaker 2: and let's try not punishing people for crime anymore. So,
Speaker 2: which brings me to our new code thing. We've got
Speaker 2: on the bathroom here on the fifth floor here at
Speaker 2: the building, so now they've got a keypad on there,
Speaker 2: like and I don't know where you're listening, where you live,
Speaker 2: this might be completely foreign to you. You might be
Speaker 2: living like all of America has lived for hundreds of years,
Speaker 2: where if you go into a restaurant, they have a
Speaker 2: bathroom that's open to the public, and if you want
Speaker 2: to go, you just go and you walk in the door.
Speaker 2: You might live somewhere like that and be completely lost
Speaker 2: by this conversation. But around here in California, they are
Speaker 2: very very very few open public restrooms. They all have
Speaker 2: a lock on them with a code, and you have
Speaker 2: to get a code from somebody at the front. And
Speaker 2: it's all to keep junkies from using your bathroom, like
Speaker 2: sleeping in there, befouling it, washing themselves whatever.
Speaker 1: Well, and just to make the point even clearer, it's
Speaker 1: not like there are public bathrooms quote unquote in the
Speaker 1: radio ranch. They're just unlocked bathrooms for the businesses and
Speaker 1: the customers of those businesses to.
Speaker 2: You, which you could have forever in every office building
Speaker 2: in America. And what drives me crazy, And this is
Speaker 2: what I'm complaining to my kids about. And you know,
Speaker 2: when we're at CBS and you got to get somebody
Speaker 2: with a key to unlock the enter persperant for you.
Speaker 2: We keep adjusting to the junkies. We keep backpedaling away
Speaker 2: from the junkies and letting them encroach on our enjoyable lives.
Speaker 2: They get to take our enjoyment so that they can
Speaker 2: have more enjoyment. When are we gonna stop this retreating
Speaker 2: So rather than you know, any you got the lawsuit
Speaker 2: thing like Starbucks ended up in a lawsuit because they
Speaker 2: wouldn't let somebody in a bathroom or whatever. And blah
Speaker 2: blah blah. So then a lot of businesses just decide, okay,
Speaker 2: we don't have public bathrooms, and they always have a
Speaker 2: sign say closed for repair or whatever. There's lots of
Speaker 2: places like that in Califly where you just don't have
Speaker 2: the bathroom because you're gonna get into some sort of
Speaker 2: legal problem. What are we gonna stop retreating and say no, no, no,
Speaker 2: how about this. How about you get all the freaking
Speaker 2: drug addicts within five blocks out of here and then
Speaker 2: we can continue to have open bathrooms like we always have.
Speaker 2: And it was fine.
Speaker 1: Now is a perfect moment for clip number eleven. Michael's
Speaker 1: fellow by the name of Kevin Dalgren. He's a Portlander.
Speaker 7: I am not standing in a trash dump. I am
Speaker 7: standing in a public park in the city of Portland.
Speaker 7: This is absolutely disgusting and it is everywhere. This is
Speaker 7: not an isolated issue. I find this in our green
Speaker 7: spaces every single day. It's hundreds of thousands of pounds
Speaker 7: of trash everywhere.
Speaker 1: One of the most beautiful cities in the world. And
Speaker 1: the video is amazing. It's just so much garbage. It
Speaker 1: looks like, well, it looks like the outskirts of a
Speaker 1: garbage dump.
Speaker 2: So that guy, I'm sure is a guy with a
Speaker 2: job in paying taxes, paid for the park, then.
Speaker 3: Has enjoyed it for most of his life.
Speaker 2: Then drug addicts didn't get to befoul it with no
Speaker 2: penalty to them. You don't get used to the park
Speaker 2: and probably are gonna up paying for the cleanup and maintenance.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: What kind of society is said, pray your kid doesn't
Speaker 1: stay up on a syringe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just nuts. We gotta quit retreating in the face
Speaker 2: of the drug zombies.
Speaker 1: Do we actually have the Willie Brown audio or is
Speaker 1: that just something you saw where he was talking about
Speaker 1: how ridiculous it is to Yeah, okay, yeah I read it.
Speaker 2: But former mayor of San Francisco in a longtime Speaker
Speaker 2: of the House, Speaker of the Assembly in California, said
Speaker 2: that California San Francisco's policies ruined the city. All these
Speaker 2: social workers who got in charge, who think they can
Speaker 2: talk these people out of being bad. He is basically
Speaker 2: just saying that some people are bad and you got
Speaker 2: to throw him in jail, yeah the end, or kick
Speaker 2: him out of the park.
Speaker 3: Where am I supposed to go? Not here? That's your problem.
Speaker 3: You can't be here. Nuts.
Speaker 2: All right, I'll stop complaining. It's a Friday. I don't
Speaker 2: want to be angry. Just reminded me when I went
Speaker 2: to the bathroom to punch in the code. I'm adjusting
Speaker 2: to them as opposed to making them adjust to us. Nuts. Anyway,
Speaker 2: we'll talk about something nice like baseball coming up.
Speaker 8: Stay here, Kyle Holmer and he loses. Odell prooves. Oh,
Speaker 8: we got it.
Speaker 1: We got a cap, We got a cap, touch, a challenge, challenge.
Speaker 2: Call of the ball, and a cave from Peralta.
Speaker 1: Not so is that first successful challenge of a ball
Speaker 1: strike calling major League Baseball?
Speaker 2: So the computer told the umpire they are wrong on
Speaker 2: their call.
Speaker 3: Right exactly.
Speaker 1: We had a discussion yesterday based on a column by
Speaker 1: Jason Gay in the Wall Street Journal about the problems
Speaker 1: with the robot umpire thing, and it was so insightful,
Speaker 1: so good goodos to Jason. If you want to hear it,
Speaker 1: grab yesterday's Armstrong gettyon demand podcast. I won't repeat all
Speaker 1: of it, but I got permission from my buddy Brian,
Speaker 1: the Major League umpire recently retired, who's been, you know,
Speaker 1: feeding me information about all sorts of baseball, relating things
Speaker 1: for a long time. Who said something interesting. I'm less
Speaker 1: worried about the job security because our biggest, most important
Speaker 1: job is when nobody really realizes. But major League Baseball
Speaker 1: knows handling the emotions of the players and keeping order.
Speaker 3: There's no computer system that will help with that.
Speaker 1: Now that the balls and strikes can't be argued or
Speaker 1: vented over, are they going to start fighting each other
Speaker 1: in the dugout? The anger and emotion has to go somewhere.
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see where it goes.
Speaker 2: Shot, give me a shot. Remember we're playing that clip
Speaker 2: years ago, the manager losing his mind and the umpire,
Speaker 2: you know, letting him vent and talking him down. That's
Speaker 2: exactly right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And the players are really really intense sometimes too,
Speaker 1: and they need somebody to vent at, and so they
Speaker 1: yell at the MP a couple of times, the umperols
Speaker 1: their eyes, and on we go with the game. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I thought that was interesting. Speaking of baseball, I was
Speaker 1: aware of this guy kind just a little bit. But
Speaker 1: it's funny he's kind of got a higher profile now
Speaker 1: thanks to oh And both of these stories are kind
Speaker 1: of about baseball, but they're really about.
Speaker 3: Life and human beings.
Speaker 1: Trevor Gilmore, or Trev's Chirps, as he's known on social media,
Speaker 1: is the world's greatest baseball heckler right now, and because
Speaker 1: of social media you can hear his stuff. He and
Speaker 1: a buddy went to a Triple A baseball game, sat
Speaker 1: in the bleachers and thought, these people's heckling is terrible,
Speaker 1: he said. He said, they're not creative and it's personal.
Speaker 1: It's mostly just a lot of you sucks. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: there's a better way to do this, and so he
Speaker 1: launched his social media pages and his buddy, who is
Speaker 1: at the game of films everything he does. He's actually
Speaker 1: a big Giants fan, hangs out at the San Francisco
Speaker 1: Giants games a lot and they have a special ticket
Speaker 1: deal with him, and a lot of fans will like
Speaker 1: buy him tickets or post for pictures. He's become a thing.
Speaker 3: Wow.
Speaker 1: But we'll start with twelve Michael and go from there.
Speaker 1: Here is some of Trevor Gilmore's work.
Speaker 5: Payada, I bet you drink red wine with you, bump.
Speaker 2: Hey, pro bark.
Speaker 1: I bet you put your feet on people's dashboard you bump.
Speaker 2: Hey said that, I bet you like to chew with

Speaker 1: I remember hearing that it comes games when I was
Speaker 1: a little kid. Uh the padres Jackson. Merril says he
Speaker 1: chirped me and was like, I bet you.
Speaker 2: Always three putted golf.
Speaker 1: So for the first month of the offseason, I three
Speaker 1: putted every green, something I never do.
Speaker 2: He got inside my head. You boom, you bum.
Speaker 3: I'm about a little more, Michael, Hey, Rell.
Speaker 2: It you look like you dropped palm and loot. You

Speaker 2: I bet you think afrikais the country you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you bum you bum oh boy.
Speaker 2: That is fantastic.
Speaker 3: That is so American. I love that.
Speaker 2: I sat behind a couple of young guys in Phoenix
Speaker 2: at a Phoenix Suns game. I took my dad. I
Speaker 2: told this story many times his eightieth birthday. I bought
Speaker 2: tickets to sit right behind the bench to watch Lebron
Speaker 2: play when Cleveland was in Phoenix, and so we got
Speaker 2: set up close and everything. But there were these two
Speaker 2: must have been rich kids. They were young, sitting in
Speaker 2: the very front row. Also, their heckles were really good.
Speaker 2: They were kind of like that they heckled endlessly, but
Speaker 2: they were all like, not personal. They were just like
Speaker 2: weirdly entertaining. Ten the players would look over and shake
Speaker 2: their heads like, what the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 2: I hear you eat your kid cat sideways. Oh that's great.
Speaker 2: Oh the old ballpark. Huh, lit'sten. We're the funniest country
Speaker 2: on Earth. Let's not lose that, America exactly. We got
Speaker 2: more of the way if you missed making the podcast
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty on Demand Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 5: Shocking scene in Florida at Daytona Beach International Airport watches
Speaker 5: this man runs towards a plane. Authority say he ran
Speaker 5: his Ford Mustang through the airport gate, entered the active tarmac,
Speaker 5: and tried to board an aircraft. Brian Parker was arrested.
Speaker 5: Officials say he was intoxicated. He faces a number of charges,
Speaker 5: including felony trespass.
Speaker 2: Florida man. So he crashes this he's drunk, crashes his
Speaker 2: car through the gate at the airport, it's all the
Speaker 2: way to a plane, and tries to get on the plane.
Speaker 2: That is some behavior. I don't know what was going on,
Speaker 2: is what it was.
Speaker 9: It was like a small, like a single engine plane,
Speaker 9: and he tried to get into the cockpit.
Speaker 2: Wow. I wonder what he was thinking in his head,
Speaker 2: what he thought was going on. Anyway, we've got some
Speaker 2: of the body cam audio, I guess from one of
Speaker 2: the law enforcement people. What's the deal man, I don't remember.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that a bunch of drugs, meeting.
Speaker 7: Cocaine, drinking and smoke a pot.
Speaker 3: Look yet, and get on my phone motorcycle.
Speaker 2: So you were doing all kinds of drugs and ran
Speaker 2: through the gate. Yeah, and I crashed my car.
Speaker 1: Well, it's going to aid in the investigation. Thank you,
Speaker 1: sir for your candor.
Speaker 2: Well, the so, the cocaine, pot, and the booze all
Speaker 2: combined together to somehow it seemed like a good idea
Speaker 2: to crash through the gate at an airport and try
Speaker 2: to board a plane.
Speaker 1: He seemed remarkably coherent, getting a dell that had occurred,
Speaker 1: No kidding, Wow, he looked high as a kite, and
Speaker 1: he said he didn't really remember.
Speaker 3: He looked way too old for that sort of lifestyle too.
Speaker 2: Oh really, how old do you appear to be? Fifty eight?
Speaker 3: Fifty eight, fifties?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a twenty something sort of behavior, not fifty eight.
Speaker 3: Some miracle he's lived this long.
Speaker 2: Okay, I got something kind of thick here. Can you
Speaker 2: handle thick on a Friday? This kind of thick? This
Speaker 2: is pretty interesting though. Sixty k or cc I was
Speaker 2: gonna go with c k cc okay uh.
Speaker 3: Who'd this come from?
Speaker 2: From? An author of a book called Islam Israel in
Speaker 2: the West. I don't know this person. It doesn't really matter.
Speaker 2: Assume this is true. If it's not true, I don't know,
Speaker 2: assume me complain on the internet. Go on the internet
Speaker 2: and complain. There is a species of ant that approaches
Speaker 2: the edge of another ant colony, kills a single worker,
Speaker 2: and then takes on the dead ant scent. Have you
Speaker 2: ever heard this before?
Speaker 3: It sounds vaguely familiar. Yeah.
Speaker 2: For ants, scent is everything and one once you kill
Speaker 2: that aunt, get its scent. Wearing that scent, the intruder
Speaker 2: can walk in with no resistance. The workers pass by
Speaker 2: without any concern whatsoever. The intruder then moves inward toward
Speaker 2: the queen. Then it sprays the queen with a different
Speaker 2: scent that makes the workers turn on her than they
Speaker 2: surround her and kill her. Oh, my lord, the intruder
Speaker 2: does not need to fight anyone. The colony does the
Speaker 2: work itself. Once the queen is gone, the intruder reproduces.
Speaker 2: The true invader is no longer an intruder. It is
Speaker 2: the future. And of course you probably saw this coming.
Speaker 2: This was going to be a allegory, metaphor, or whatever
Speaker 2: you want to call it, for something bigger. This is
Speaker 2: how ideological takeover works. A destructive foreign ideology takes the
Speaker 2: scent of familiar ideas and walks in as if it belongs.
Speaker 2: It speaks the native vocabulary justice, equality, compassion, rights, progress.
Speaker 2: It uses these words and quietly changes what they point to.
Speaker 2: Then it moves inward. It alters how foundations are perceived.
Speaker 2: Responsibility is made to smell like cruelty, law like oppression,
Speaker 2: borders like hatred, tradition like danger, history like guilt. At
Speaker 2: that point, the civilization turns on itself, like the ant colony.
Speaker 2: It's courts, universities, churches, media, and bureaucracies begin treating their
Speaker 2: own foundations as threats. They believe they are defending the system.
Speaker 2: They're enforcing what now smells legitimate. They do not see
Speaker 2: the intruder because it sounds exactly like them. And when
Speaker 2: the founding principles are finally removed, discredited, dismantled, race, the
Speaker 2: foreign ideology does not need to conquer anything. It inherits
Speaker 2: what is left. The queen is gone, the colony is
Speaker 2: no longer itself. Wow, that's perfect, pretty good. The most
Speaker 2: effective conquest is the one that convinces a society that
Speaker 2: its own foundations are the enemy and that killing them
Speaker 2: is an act of virtue.
Speaker 1: How good is that? That is exactly what has happened,
Speaker 1: perfect writing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very clever by the evildoers, whether it's you know
Speaker 2: that fu Col crowd and.
Speaker 1: Their whole thing, postmodernists, Yeah, by many neo Marxist.
Speaker 2: Very clever. And I'm not sure history will even document it, well,
Speaker 2: assuming we don't survive it, and I'm not sure we will,
Speaker 2: of how how incredible, how incredibly clever it was to
Speaker 2: go in and convince people a culture to hate itself
Speaker 2: and its own institutions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's you know, they've borrowed from morewell too,
Speaker 1: it's it's astonishing and horrifying to me how few people
Speaker 1: understand that's what's happening. And as I always say, these
Speaker 1: people wrote books, their names are on the spine. They
Speaker 1: described exactly what they were going to do and how
Speaker 1: they were going to do it. And that is what
Speaker 1: you are seeing. That's the woke thing, the woke apocalypse,
Speaker 1: that's these postmodernists. Co and his band of Mary Frenchman,
Speaker 1: and uh, this is all on purpose and then insidiously.
Speaker 1: And it's interesting that that came from a book about
Speaker 1: Islam Israel in the West. That's where the Red Green
Speaker 1: alliance becomes significant, because the Islamists see what the postmodernists
Speaker 1: are doing and think, hey, let's let's do exactly what
Speaker 1: they're doing, and in fact, let's band with them until
Speaker 1: we can chuck the current system because once when the
Speaker 1: revolution comes, we'll kill all the Marxists.
Speaker 2: I thought that was really really good.
Speaker 3: That was brilliant. Send that to me.
Speaker 1: Want to memorize it pretty thick with a K, not
Speaker 1: with a C C. Right, Well, I've never seen the guy.
Speaker 2: That denotes kind of like big thighs in a hefty.
Speaker 3: Esque figure. Yeah, curvy. That was really really good.
Speaker 2: Is that true about the anti It doesn't need to
Speaker 2: be true for the for the I mean, for the
Speaker 2: important part to be true.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: It sounds very very familiar to me vaguely, but I
Speaker 1: was just reading about this invasive wasp. They're a couple
Speaker 1: I think, both from Asia that are vexing the country
Speaker 1: at either end, one in the northwest and one in
Speaker 1: the southeast. But the one, the one in the southeast,
Speaker 1: obliterates bee colonies like honey bees, the good bees, the
Speaker 1: bees we need, and it decapitates the bees, which seems
Speaker 1: unnecessarily like isis like to me, why do you have.
Speaker 2: To do that with bees? I wouldn't think that. That's
Speaker 2: because for humans it's like to really terrorize you. Look
Speaker 2: how what they're willing to do And does that work
Speaker 2: on bees? I don't think so.
Speaker 1: But my point was going to be the insect well,
Speaker 1: the animal world, but the insect world in particular is
Speaker 1: utterly brutal. Oh yeah, it's horrific. Murder happens every time
Speaker 1: you turn around. They're constantly killing each other.
Speaker 2: It's a hummingbird eat hummingbird world out there. Sure, that's
Speaker 2: a great metaphor if you have you ever watched those
Speaker 2: videos when they slow down the whole hummingbirds eating thing.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, doesn't mean you think they're like taking.
Speaker 3: Turns at the flower.
Speaker 2: You know, they're beating the but.
Speaker 3: Jesus out of it.
Speaker 2: They look so cute and beautiful and they come into
Speaker 2: your hummingbird feeder and then one goes in and eats,
Speaker 2: and everyone goes. It happens so fast. If you ever
Speaker 2: get to I'm sure you can. Have you ever seen
Speaker 2: it on YouTube or anything there?
Speaker 3: Katie? No?
Speaker 2: But what are they slow? What way to happen?
Speaker 3: The crap out of each other? Get their beaks?
Speaker 2: When two hummingbirds come into your hummingbird feeder, they get
Speaker 2: into a uh a violent battle that's unbelievable. If you
Speaker 2: see it slowed down frame by framing it, you watch it,
Speaker 2: then it's just horrific. You hate to even be a
Speaker 2: part of it. I refuse to believe this. It's like
Speaker 2: watching that off fight, y'all. Let you guys do a
Speaker 2: lot of things.
Speaker 9: I won't let you ruin my hummingbirds for me.
Speaker 1: Okay, they're trying to stab each other's eyes out, Wake
Speaker 1: up girl.
Speaker 2: Now. It is like watching a dog fight, which I've
Speaker 2: never done. Would be awful. I wouldn't be able to
Speaker 2: stomach it. But yeah, the hummingbird violence is incredible.
Speaker 1: For what it's worth, I've never actually seen one injured
Speaker 1: in this jousting. It's more like they're pushing each other
Speaker 1: out of the way. But their beaks are long and sharp,
Speaker 1: so yeah, and.
Speaker 2: The strong one will just terrorize the weaker one so
Speaker 2: it can't eat mm hmm. When it flies off looking
Speaker 2: all happy, it's because it got its ass kicked by
Speaker 2: big You're tough for hummingbird.
Speaker 9: Wow, this is the worst segment you guys have done today.
Speaker 2: I'll like saying something.
Speaker 1: You know, we're bringing a little reality to your fairy
Speaker 1: tale world.
Speaker 2: All right, this would be perfect before we go to
Speaker 2: break because we're often joking, and we're joking to remind
Speaker 2: ourselves to not be This about where the most depressing
Speaker 2: radio show in America? Uh, we don't want to be that,
Speaker 2: but we can get on a roll negative things that
Speaker 2: are happening anyway. We got this text your show depressing,

Speaker 2: Okay, dang it, I didn't have my headphones on.
Speaker 1: What was the set up for that job? That's the

Speaker 9: Since they both missed it, will you play the first
Speaker 9: thing again?
Speaker 3: Okay?
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 6: North Carolina woman was recently bitten by an otter while
Speaker 6: watching a marathon set her friend just say, you don't
Speaker 6: want to come to my party.
Speaker 2: Okay.
Speaker 1: For the record, I did hear the whole thing, and
Speaker 1: that is very funny.
Speaker 9: And this aired before it abiding.
Speaker 3: The drama, the Armstrong and Getdy show.
Speaker 2: We are abiding the drama?
Speaker 3: Or do you have that text?
Speaker 1: Handy again, so oddly worded, willing on to the next thing.
Speaker 2: Put up with our relentless negativity. I guess your show depressing,
Speaker 2: no hyperbolic? Yes, good ratings demand the drama and you abide.
Speaker 3: Mmmm.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's actually my self affirmation. I say into
Speaker 1: the mirror every every morning, good shows demand drama, You
Speaker 1: must abide.
Speaker 3: All right, let's do this. So here is a story
Speaker 3: that that amused me.
Speaker 1: On a couple of different levels. It's from CNN, of
Speaker 1: all places. Why quote about once a year because there's terrible.
Speaker 1: This is a poop poster one of your online provocateur,
Speaker 1: a poster troll, super Maga guy like that Joe Kent,
Speaker 1: guy who Trump went ahead to keep the coalition together
Speaker 1: and appointed to a powerful job in FEMA. He's like
Speaker 1: a top FEMA official leading their Office of Response and Recovery. Okay,
Speaker 1: when people are really suffering in the stuff is hit
Speaker 1: the fan.
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: This guy's got a history of unbelievably like violent combative statements.
Speaker 1: But We're gonna beat the hell out of him, and
Speaker 1: I'm gonna track him down and punch him right in
Speaker 1: his face and blah blah blah.
Speaker 3: On and on and on.
Speaker 1: He said of Joe Biden, I'd like to punch that
Speaker 1: biatcha in the mouth right now. He's a nasty, sy
Speaker 1: crappy human being and he deserves to die, and I
Speaker 1: hope he does. Okay, this is the dude, so he
Speaker 1: gets appointed to this really important FEMA job. Wow, And
Speaker 1: the people in the department are really freaked out and worried.
Speaker 3: Here's the punchline.
Speaker 1: After a few weeks, several of them told CNN to
Speaker 1: their surprise, phillips hands on involvement during the spate of
Speaker 1: storms that softened their doubts. Greg Phillips is famous best
Speaker 1: hope at this moment, I can't believe I'm saying that.
Speaker 1: Evidently this guy gets into the job. Oh I forgot.
Speaker 1: He claimed quite seriously to have been teleported to a
Speaker 1: waffle house. Well, okay, he was at home, all of
Speaker 1: a sudden, he was at a waffle house, and his
Speaker 1: sons will verify there's no way he could have made
Speaker 1: it to the waffle house forty miles away in that
Speaker 1: time he was teleported there.
Speaker 2: I've had similar experiences. I'm at home drinking a football game.
Speaker 2: Next thing I know him at a waffle house. Or
Speaker 2: they flipped on the lights of the bar and the
Speaker 2: next thing I remember, I'm at a waffle house. I've
Speaker 2: had those things happened to her. I'm not sure it
Speaker 2: was spacecrafty you were teleported, But the s posting thing
Speaker 2: kind of fits in with what we've experienced people that
Speaker 2: we'll just go overboard online, but in real life they're
Speaker 2: kind of just not like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, But and credit honestly to CNN and went
Speaker 1: back and followed up, and the people he works with say,
Speaker 1: oh no, he's been doing a terrific job.
Speaker 3: Go figure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's part of the whole really weird. When in
Speaker 2: Rome atmosphere of online commentary.
Speaker 1: That and this, which is something we've talked about fairmounts
Speaker 1: through the years. The idea of posts or phrases for
Speaker 1: one audience are interpreted as if they're the official pronouncements
Speaker 1: of you as the spokesperson for yourself.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 1: FEMA spokesperson said, this is so silly it's barely worth acknowledging.
Speaker 1: DHS Feme and mister Phillips are focused on the critical mission.
Speaker 3: Blah blah blah.
Speaker 1: Many of the comments cited are taken out of context
Speaker 1: or represent personal, informal, jovial, and somewhat spiritual discussions made
Speaker 1: in the context surviving cancer in a private capacity prior
Speaker 1: to his current role.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that whole because I've run into this, Joan,
Speaker 2: and I've run into this sometimes we've had law enforcement
Speaker 2: get involved. Oh that was a joke. You guys didn't
Speaker 2: think that was funny. Yeah, that didn't sound like a
Speaker 2: joke at all, really lacking any nod toward humor whatsoever.
Speaker 2: But in your mind, I guess it was humorous. I
Speaker 2: know where you live and somebody ought to take you out.
Speaker 1: Ha, No, didn't get the joke, No, no, no, no no.
Speaker 1: And that Ricky Turvay's things so brilliant that people make
Speaker 1: jokes and they laugh not because they think I agree
Speaker 1: with that. It's because everybody disagrees with it, and everybody's shocked, and.
Speaker 3: It's a human reaction.
Speaker 1: But that's useful for those, you know, the vicious activist
Speaker 1: types who it reminds me of the anti metaphor and
Speaker 1: the great thing you read last segment and the ideologically
Speaker 1: capture an institution. And the whole point of critical theory is,
Speaker 1: no matter what somebody says, you find a word, declare
Speaker 1: it problematic and say it proves they're racist or homophobes
Speaker 1: or trans.
Speaker 2: Phobes, or the patriarchy or whatever.
Speaker 1: And you get people so on their heels because they
Speaker 1: don't know what to say next because everything they say,
Speaker 1: you find a word and you say that proves they're
Speaker 1: a racist. Till people sit down, shut up, and let
Speaker 1: you run the institution. James Lindsay and Helen pluck Rose
Speaker 1: is brilliant. Cynical Theories is a great book to read
Speaker 1: if you'd like to know more.
Speaker 2: Have you been? I got to look up this guy's
Speaker 2: name because he's not a household name for me like
Speaker 2: he is for my son. Do you know Bruski Drew Ski?
Speaker 2: Do you know Drew Ski, Katie? Now, oh, he's like
Speaker 2: the biggest thing in the world for anybody under thirty.
Speaker 2: I might throw that into my final thought. Okay, hey kids,
Speaker 2: it's that time again with Armstrong and Getty. Here's your
Speaker 2: host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.
Speaker 1: Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew
Speaker 1: to wrap up the show for the day. Michael Anjelar,
Speaker 1: technical director, will lead us off. Michael, that's a true story.
Speaker 2: It's funny.
Speaker 4: I was at an NBA game years ago and there
Speaker 4: was a role player named Tony Bennett, and so he
Speaker 4: shouldn't two free throws and he misses both of them,
Speaker 4: and the guy in our section yells, hey, Tony, it
Speaker 4: looks like you left your game at San Francisco.
Speaker 1: The whole section Laude, classy, Eckel, keep it classy, Katie
Speaker 1: Green are esteemed Newswoman.
Speaker 3: As a final thought, Katie.
Speaker 9: It's funny you just put those two words together, Jack,
Speaker 9: because that's what I say when I'm joking with Drew
Speaker 9: and I'm gonna bring him a beer.
Speaker 2: I go, does Bruski, Does Drewski want a Bruski. That's
Speaker 2: pretty funny. Well, now you know that. My final thought,
Speaker 2: Drewski is a giant star. Like my son said, you
Speaker 2: don't know who Drewski is really really big deal on
Speaker 2: online presence. Anyway, he did a mocking Erica Kirk video.
Speaker 2: I got tons of attention in the last twenty four hours.
Speaker 2: Got it. I find quite hateful, But in his mind
Speaker 2: and the crowd's mind, might just be a joke. I
Speaker 2: don't even know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, back to Here frequently stated no country for old men.
Speaker 3: Thing. I just I'm voting no.
Speaker 1: I'll be in the woods watching the squirrels cavort trying
Speaker 1: to identify ant colonies and watch them murder each other.
Speaker 2: That sounds relaxing.
Speaker 3: I find it relaxing, Yes, to watch animals murder each
Speaker 3: other brutally.
Speaker 2: Wow, slow down the hummingbirds and really watch them take
Speaker 2: each other's eyes out.
Speaker 1: Bet on the outcome. Armstrong getting it hummingbird gambling. We're
