1 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:15,240 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:15,280 --> 00:00:19,280 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Katty. 3 00:00:19,239 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 2: Armstrong and Techy and no He. 4 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 3: Arms He live from Studio C, a dimly lit room 5 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 3: deeput them the bowels of. 6 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,640 Speaker 2: The Armstrong and Getty Communications compound, which is surrounded by 7 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,280 Speaker 2: razor wire and barking dogs. Actually, I am happy. We 8 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 2: got a security guard outside sitting there, and there's a 9 00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 2: little car with the splashing lights. Let you know, there's 10 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:50,200 Speaker 2: somebody with somebody carrying heat. Looks like he's carrying heat. 11 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 2: I think that's a gun. Welcome, How you doing, Glad 12 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 2: you're here? Oh, all right, today we're under the tutelage 13 00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 2: of our general manager. I'll go with Jimmy Kimmel, just 14 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 2: because I think that's a danged interesting conversation. Jimmy Kimmel's 15 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 2: show being taken off the air indefinitely. Nobody seems to 16 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 2: know if that means. Usually in the world of broadcasting, 17 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: indefinite is forever, almost always in my experience, but this 18 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 2: one could be just temporarily hard to say. I found 19 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel over the last many years to be an 20 00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 2: insufferably pompous. Well, I came across the word last night. 21 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 2: Popped in my head. I thought that was the perfect 22 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:31,880 Speaker 2: word for him. I don't remember what it was, but 23 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 2: pompous is close enough. Just just the whole our side 24 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: is wonderful and everyone else is stupid. Just that whole. 25 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 2: It's just so annoying. But I also don't want the government, 26 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: you know, policing speech. So we'll get into both sides 27 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 2: of that comment with as as the same with Colbert 28 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:58,040 Speaker 2: when he got taken off the air. Being left out. 29 00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 2: A lot is these people's ratings are really low compared 30 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 2: to what these shows cost, really low, and they've gone down, down, 31 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: down over the years, partially because they decided to say 32 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: f you to half the country. If you say f 33 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 2: you to half of the country, it's hard to have 34 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 2: very high ratings. With all that said, I still don't 35 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,680 Speaker 2: want the government policing speech, so we'll handle all that. Yes, Michael, 36 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 2: you already wanted to join in. I like that Michael 37 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:24,720 Speaker 2: year jumping at the bet. 38 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,240 Speaker 4: His contract is up in May, and I just wonder 39 00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 4: if you know the network just said here's an excuse. 40 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: Or it's not going to do so that much. Du 41 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: may of next year. Yeah, but yeah, I don't know. 42 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 2: I mean there's a there's another deal going through and 43 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: people don't want trouble whatever. But have you heard what 44 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: he said regarding the Charlie Cook assassination. He said it 45 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:48,320 Speaker 2: on Monday night, took till Thursday for it to land 46 00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: in such a way that he got taken off the air, 47 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: And definitely will play that for you and talk about 48 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 2: all the ins and outs of all that sort of stuff. 49 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 2: Got a lot of great guests lined up today on 50 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: a bunch of different topics, everything from what do the 51 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,240 Speaker 2: interest rates going down a quarter point mean for you 52 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: if anything at all? And doesn't mean a whole lot 53 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: for you yet, just directionally it's good, but it doesn't 54 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 2: mean a lot for you yet. And talk a little 55 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: bit about Trump's trip to England. Did you see that 56 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 2: meal that they had last night. That table was more 57 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 2: than half a football field long. That's hard to even 58 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: imagine sitting at table, eating dinner at a table more 59 00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: than half a football field long. The people down at 60 00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 2: the other end, you would hardly be able to see them, 61 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 2: let alone have a conversation with them. Wouldn't even though 62 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 2: they were there. You wouldn't even know they were there. No, no, no, no. 63 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: You could meet them years from now and say, oh, 64 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 2: we had dinner together, and you'd say we did. Eh, yeah, 65 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: we were fifty yards away. Yeah, at that sixty yard 66 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 2: long table. I was at the other end. You were 67 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 2: at the other end. We had so I tell people 68 00:03:50,320 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 2: we had dinner together. That is a giant table. Only 69 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 2: in England, where they have castles, would even have room 70 00:03:55,760 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 2: for a table that large. It was a little excessive. 71 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: H Well, that's what they do. That's what the royal 72 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:03,320 Speaker 2: family does, is excessive. Because it was all about King 73 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: Charles and the windsor castle, whatever the hell that is 74 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 2: trumps special guests. You get to bring anybody you want 75 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 2: to a state dinner. His special guests were the guy 76 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 2: who runs video video, Sam Altman from open Ai that's 77 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 2: the chat GPT guy, and then one other, Tim Cook 78 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:26,479 Speaker 2: from Apple. So he had really high level tech guy 79 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 2: specifically around AI is his special guest. I don't know 80 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 2: exactly what the message was there, which leads me to 81 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:35,119 Speaker 2: my headline. I don't understand of the day at least 82 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,360 Speaker 2: so far that I saw breaking news from the Wall 83 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: Street Journal. Video said it would buy five billion dollars 84 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 2: worth of Intel a sign of how AI is reshaping 85 00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: the tech industry. I have no idea what that means, 86 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: buying five million dollars of your competitor Intel, But it's 87 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 2: all about the super high speed AI chips, and this 88 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 2: bed is either going to pan out or it's not. 89 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 2: But a lot of people with a lot of money, 90 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,039 Speaker 2: who we are very very smart, certainly smarter than me, 91 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 2: seem to think it's the wave of the future one 92 00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:07,480 Speaker 2: way or to'ther. It's funny. I was talking to a 93 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 2: person yesterday who said they air kid was into coding 94 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 2: as a senior in high school and has specifically decided 95 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: to learn to weld because of AI. The idea that 96 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: AI is going to do all the coding in the future, 97 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: but AI will never be able to weld. I wonder 98 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 2: which is true. I think maybe someday robots will be 99 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 2: able to weld. It'll be a while though, It'll be 100 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 2: a long time before robots can successfully do a good 101 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,599 Speaker 2: job of welding. I wonder how many young people are 102 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 2: going to be making those decisions in the very near future, 103 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 2: going back to maybe more your traditional work with your 104 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: hands sort of the jobs anyway, that's a separate topic. 105 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: There is a horrifying attack on police in Pennsylvania, worst 106 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:51,560 Speaker 2: one they've had in the state of Pennsylvania in a 107 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 2: one hundred years. What a bunch of police officers being shot. 108 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 2: I think it's just a random, one off, horrible story. 109 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 2: It has no greater significance for America, I think. But 110 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: if any more details come out, we'll hit you with that. 111 00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:09,520 Speaker 2: There is some new stuff around the Charlie Kirk assassination. 112 00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 2: Knowing a little more about the the shooter and the 113 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 2: process for getting this guy convicted and hopefully the death penalty, 114 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 2: and hopefully he gets shot himself. That's the result I'm 115 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 2: looking for. Some of my favorite conservative commentators are pretty 116 00:06:29,120 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 2: uncomfortable with Jimmy Kimmel being driven off the air, if 117 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: that's what happened by the FCC. The FCC Commissioner has 118 00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,640 Speaker 2: said some fairly strong things in the last forty eight 119 00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 2: hours about what Kimmel said and about people not getting 120 00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:52,760 Speaker 2: to keep their network licenses FCC the FCC Commissioner about 121 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 2: not being able to keep their network licenses, the broadcasting 122 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:59,599 Speaker 2: licenses if they aren't towing the line politically or whatever. 123 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 2: And like I said, some of my favorite conservative commentators 124 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 2: are pretty uncomfortable with that for one reason, Like Joe 125 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 2: and I always talking about whatever you do, the next 126 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 2: administration is going to do two, and I don't know 127 00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 2: that I want an FCC commissioner saying, you know, talk 128 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 2: radio is completely out of hand. Yeah, and that would 129 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: be unfortunate. Yes, and they get to say whatever the 130 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 2: hell they want, which we do, and we don't think 131 00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: that's good for the country. So we're gonna start yanking 132 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 2: people broadcast license or threaten the Yank broadcast license if 133 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: you don't get people like Armstrong and giddy off there. 134 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:39,120 Speaker 2: For instance, Randy Weingarten, Lady, I've been running the teachers 135 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 2: Union for a long time and all through COVID. She's 136 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 2: a witch, she is the devil. I believe she's actually 137 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:48,560 Speaker 2: actually works for the devil. I think she actually hates children. Now, 138 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 2: that's a pretty strong thing to say. A democratic administration, 139 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: their FCC commissioner might say, you know, Jack Armstrong just 140 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 2: said the most important leader teachers in our country is 141 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 2: the devil. We can't have that. That's not good, that's devisive. 142 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 2: And I don't want a democratic administration and be able 143 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 2: to do that anymore than I want a Republican administration 144 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 2: to be able to drive Jimmy Kimmel off there, even 145 00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 2: though he said a really awful stupid thing. Yeah. 146 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,239 Speaker 4: I don't know that I have like a great argument 147 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 4: for this, but something in me, this Charlie Kirk situation 148 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 4: is so different. 149 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,880 Speaker 2: Right because it is possible. Well, let's start to show officially. 150 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 2: We're going to play a little bit of Kimmel the 151 00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 2: Frock with the FCC watch out. Yeah, yeah, exactly got 152 00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:30,760 Speaker 2: to start the show officially. The FCC gets on this. 153 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 2: I'm Jack Armstrong, he's Joe Getty on this. It is 154 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:35,439 Speaker 2: how did it get to be? Thursday, September eighteenth to 155 00:08:35,520 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 2: year twenty twenty five Armstrong and Geedy and we approve 156 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 2: of this program. Will begin the show at Hey, I'm 157 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 2: doing it on time, mister chairman Mark. 158 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 5: We hit some new lows over the weekend with the 159 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: Magga Gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered 160 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 5: Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and 161 00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 5: do everything they can to score political points from it 162 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 5: in between the fingerpots. 163 00:08:56,720 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 2: That's good. There was play the rest later, but that 164 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 2: that's the line that got people all been out of shape. 165 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,560 Speaker 2: That was a crazy thing to say. That's just a 166 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 2: nut job thing to say. To go on the air 167 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 2: Monday Jimmy Kimmel and say stating as fact in his 168 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 2: mind that the shooter is a maga person. Well, I 169 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: don't even know where did that come from, although I 170 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 2: saw I heard David French of the New York Times 171 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: talking about a Yugo poll that came out over the weekend. 172 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 2: Seventy percent of Democrats believe that that killer scumbag is maga. 173 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,280 Speaker 2: So somehow that story got started online or the rumor 174 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 2: spread will be Wow, what are you base on that? On? 175 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, there was some I saw in an interview watching 176 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 4: Megan Kelly. She played a clip of another woman who 177 00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:47,079 Speaker 4: was like, well, his dad was. 178 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 6: In law enforcement, he was into guns. He's a white boy, 179 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 6: and so clearly he's on their team. 180 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: And it's like, what are you talking about. You don't 181 00:09:57,280 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: know any conservative families across the country who's young The 182 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 2: boys or girls went off to college and their politics 183 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 2: became completely different than their parents. So because the parents 184 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,600 Speaker 2: are Republicans, the kid obviously is, oh. 185 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:11,080 Speaker 6: His dad's in law enforcement, so clearly they're maga. 186 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, so i'd that whole The fact that seventy percent 187 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 2: of Democrats think the shooter was maga is weird. That's 188 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 2: its own conversation. And then Jimmy Kimmel saying that it's 189 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:24,839 Speaker 2: just a weird, dumb thing to say. But okay, this 190 00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 2: was gonna be my point. I don't know if you remember. 191 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: After nine to eleven, Bill Maher had a show on 192 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: ABC at that time, very popular show called Politically Incorrect. 193 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 2: You might be too young for this, No, I remember this. 194 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,280 Speaker 2: He had a show and he went on like days 195 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 2: later after the buildings came down in New York City, 196 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: he said, because George Bush or somebody had called the 197 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,240 Speaker 2: hijackers cowards, and he said, one thing you can't say 198 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 2: is that they're cowards. They're obviously not cowards. They're obviously 199 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 2: brave to fly planes into a building, which is sort 200 00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 2: of factually correct. But in that moment, days after the 201 00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 2: buildings came down, and the most show fucking thing, and 202 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 2: it happened to America in seventy years, there was an 203 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 2: outcry and ABC took his show off the air. That 204 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 2: wasn't the FCC coming down or the government stifling free speech. 205 00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: That was just crossing a line for most Americans. Yeah, 206 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 2: And I don't know if Jimmy Kimmel reached that level, 207 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 2: but he is close is close to the because a 208 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: whole bunch of various smaller groups that have ABC stations 209 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 2: in the middle of the country that aren't you know, 210 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,240 Speaker 2: New York and LA centric the middle and you know, 211 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: I was about to say middle of Ore. I'm from 212 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: the middle of Nore and probably so, but middle of 213 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: the nowhere stations where you got lots of people who 214 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,280 Speaker 2: would hate to see that sort of thing on their television. 215 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: It's not crazy that they would decide, all right, that's it, 216 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,959 Speaker 2: We're not gonna air Jimmy Kimmel here in Provo, Utah. 217 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 2: That's a bad choice. Shootings were in Utah, here in Omaha, Nebraska, 218 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 2: or you know, place in Texas or whatever. It's not 219 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 2: shocking that they would make that decision that Jimmy Kimmel 220 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: crossed the line in the same way that Bill Maher 221 00:12:06,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 2: crossed the line. Now, the FCC Commissioner has had said 222 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: specific things that I find very very troubling in the 223 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 2: last two days about policing speech that just I mean, 224 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,640 Speaker 2: I think fly directly in the face of the First Amendment. 225 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 2: But Jimmy Kimmel and Stephen Colbert, like I said, made 226 00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 2: a decision to say you not just hey, we're gonna 227 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: rib you. I hope you can take the jokes just 228 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,439 Speaker 2: to with contempt for half or more of the country. Well, 229 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 2: and those weren't jokes, all right, those aren't jokes. But 230 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: if you do that, it really narrows your support and 231 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 2: makes it a lot more likely that you can get 232 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 2: fired like this. So I don't feel sorry for him 233 00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 2: in that way. It's like the lady at the end 234 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 2: of our show, bye bye, all right, But I don't 235 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 2: want a NFCC commissioner under President Gavin Newsom deciding that 236 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:00,720 Speaker 2: talk radio is out of control and something needs to 237 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 2: be done. And I don't see a whole lot of 238 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,440 Speaker 2: difference between that and policing. Jimmy Kimmel, if I'm wrong, 239 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 2: text me for what what I forgot? 240 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 4: The text line we have one five KFTC. 241 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,920 Speaker 2: I'm glad you know it X line she said, four 242 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 2: one k FTC.

Let's start with what 337 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 2: you just wrote the Barry The words are violence, cliche 338 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 2: around the whole, Charlie Kirk thing, what are you talking about? 339 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:45,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I've been defending free speech at Fire 340 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: for twenty four years now, and I'd say when I 341 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:54,439 Speaker 1: first started my job, the sort of activist argument that 342 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,960 Speaker 1: words can be just like bullets was something that people 343 00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,200 Speaker 1: kind of rolled their eyes at because it was obviously 344 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 1: a sort of self serving rhetorical right. But I'd say, 345 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:06,840 Speaker 1: like ten years ago, or maybe even as long as 346 00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,200 Speaker 1: fifteen years ago, this really started to become a common 347 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: argument that I would hear on campus. And then you 348 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 1: started having people who should have known better actually saying, well, 349 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: words can cause stress, so therefore that is a lot 350 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: like violence. And you know, me and John Hight, who 351 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 1: I wrote probably in the American mind with we wrote 352 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:27,400 Speaker 1: a piece in the Atlantic saying, no, this is crazy words. 353 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: We have a societal agreement essentially, and you're supposed to 354 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 1: have it in a democratic society, that there's a bright 355 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: line distinction between physical violence and expression of opinion. And 356 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,199 Speaker 1: I've been screaming to high Heaven to saying like, no, 357 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 1: this is an incredibly foolish idea. It's not progressive. It 358 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 1: gets you back to the thirteenth century A d or BC. 359 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. 360 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, just as a side on that, I 361 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,720 Speaker 2: remember at one point when The New York Times a 362 00:19:56,760 --> 00:20:00,119 Speaker 2: couple of years ago actually said intent doesn't matter. So 363 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:03,560 Speaker 2: not only had words become violence, but sometimes the way 364 00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 2: they took your words, even if you didn't intend it 365 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: that way. So man, you're really into pre enlightenment then, 366 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 2: but go ahead, yeah. 367 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 1: No, no exactly. And the thing is, of course, this 368 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: kind of you know, foolish self serving rhetoric actually turns 369 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:24,360 Speaker 1: into a situation that justifies violence for speech. And this 370 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: is oftimes coming from people who think that they're anti totalitarian. 371 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,520 Speaker 1: It's like, there's nothing more totalitarian than saying that I 372 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 1: get tourst onto your words with violence or, in the 373 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,240 Speaker 1: case the horrifying case last week, murder. 374 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: Right, So you want to do away with that because 375 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: you think it's leading to violence, the saying words or 376 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 2: violence because that can justify this particular maniac job as 377 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 2: feeling like he's meeting violence with violence. 378 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, but also I think it's bad for people's 379 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 1: mental health to have this kind of like catastrophizing way 380 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: of thinking about that. And here's the most horrifying thing. 381 00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,640 Speaker 1: We just released a massive study for our campus free 382 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: speech ranking. About one third of the students we surveyed 383 00:21:08,200 --> 00:21:12,199 Speaker 1: in about out of like seventy thousand said that at 384 00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: least in rare cases, violence can be acceptable in response 385 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,159 Speaker 1: to speech. Some schools that answer with over fifty percent 386 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,600 Speaker 1: of them, we have done something terribly wrong. If educated 387 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 1: people are being educated in almost half of them think 388 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: that violence and response to words. And the funny thing is, 389 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: oftentimes it's not that they think it's just acceptable. They 390 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 1: think in some cases it's noble to respond to speakers 391 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 1: with usually the lighter forms of violence like shoutdowns or 392 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:43,800 Speaker 1: blocking people's access. But here we see it, and it's 393 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 1: most chilling and horrifying. 394 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,879 Speaker 2: All right, Since you make this list every year of 395 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 2: where what campuses have the least free speech, there's this 396 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 2: contest going on right now. You know who's worse, which 397 00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 2: side is worse, which side commits more violence, which side 398 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:04,000 Speaker 2: does more cancel culture, that sort of thing. But when 399 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: it comes to college campuses, it's pretty one sided, isn't it. 400 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 2: That liberals can say whatever they want and conservatives can't. 401 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,879 Speaker 1: It's a little more complicated than that, but you know, 402 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: the fire has been a second to no one and 403 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: taking on sort of like what might be called woke censorship. 404 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,680 Speaker 1: But generally the rule is if the censorship comes from 405 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 1: on campus, it comes from the left. If a censorship, 406 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 1: because it does not that many conservatives on campus in 407 00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: the first place, but if it comes from off campus, 408 00:22:31,560 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: it tends to come from the right. And what we're 409 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: seeing right now is a big surge of cancelations of 410 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: censorship actually being pressured from the right as well. 411 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 2: So would the hope be that because I think you're right, 412 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 2: I think this puts us in a bad headspace. If 413 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 2: we buy into the idea that words are violence. You've 414 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:57,760 Speaker 2: been taught that you should react as if somebody's threatening 415 00:22:57,800 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 2: to punch you or shoot you when you hear something 416 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 2: you don't like, and that gets everybody's emotions running really, 417 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 2: really high. And then if we could get away with that, 418 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,280 Speaker 2: maybe we wouldn't have things like Riley Gaines having to 419 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 2: fight her way out of Berkeley, or Charlie Kirk being. 420 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:17,879 Speaker 1: Shot at exactly, it's a foolish idea. I think people, 421 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,800 Speaker 1: you know, people who are actually thinking people know that 422 00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,480 Speaker 1: it's just kind of a rhetorical first, But I believe 423 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:25,640 Speaker 1: some of these younger people really do feel like they're 424 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:28,639 Speaker 1: in a simplistic battle of good versus evil, and evil 425 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: must be stopped. And by the way, that's an anti 426 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: intellectual way of thinking about that's not an intellectual way 427 00:23:33,920 --> 00:23:35,159 Speaker 1: of thinking about the world. 428 00:23:35,200 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 2: No doubt. Before I move on to the Jimmy Kimmel 429 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:45,480 Speaker 2: thing and how it fits into everything, how optimistic are 430 00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 2: you for us, like really learning a lesson from this 431 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,439 Speaker 2: horrible assassination and turning some sort of corner. 432 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,639 Speaker 1: I would like to say I'm optimistic, but I think 433 00:23:57,680 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 1: that we're probably in the beginning of a intensifying sort 434 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:05,280 Speaker 1: of free speech crisis, and it's happening not just in 435 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: the US, it's happening globally right So unfortunately, business is 436 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: booming in free speech Land. So I'm not going to 437 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,240 Speaker 1: get a lot of sleep, nor will the good people 438 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 1: at fire. 439 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's going on in England is just horrifying. 440 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: Horrifying, and my mom is British, so it's very personal 441 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:24,359 Speaker 1: to me and they will continue to I did a 442 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:28,960 Speaker 1: piece on my sub sect, the eternally radical idea, where 443 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,680 Speaker 1: just pointing out the sheer number of people that they're arresting. 444 00:24:31,760 --> 00:24:34,880 Speaker 1: It has no parallel. I don't think it has any 445 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 1: parallel in British history. It certainly doesn't have a parallel 446 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,200 Speaker 1: in American history in terms of the scale. 447 00:24:39,480 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: So you've written a lot about cancel culture over the years, 448 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:44,000 Speaker 2: and we've got an example in the last twenty four 449 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 2: hours and since Charlie Kirk's death. So you've got people 450 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:52,600 Speaker 2: being canceled from their jobs for saying sometimes really awful, 451 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 2: awful things. But should they lose their jobs over it? 452 00:24:56,640 --> 00:25:00,880 Speaker 2: Should the government be getting involved in put pressure on 453 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 2: broadcast licenses to get rid of someone like Jimmy Kimmel 454 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:05,960 Speaker 2: because they don't like what they say. Where are you 455 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:06,640 Speaker 2: on this whole thing? 456 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:10,520 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So you know, it really is the case 457 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:14,560 Speaker 1: by case thing and canceling of the American mind. You know, 458 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 1: we give a definition of cancel culture, which is the 459 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 1: uptick of campaigns to get people fired or otherwise punished, 460 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,400 Speaker 1: starting around twenty fourteen for speech that would be protected 461 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: for say a public employee. So we choose a lot 462 00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: of like nuanced and common sense to it. But to 463 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: be clear, some of the people who are getting punished, 464 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, we're saying things relatively tame things that we're seeing, 465 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: at least some of the stuff we're seeing on campus. 466 00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 1: It's not all that guy had it coming. It's a 467 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,200 Speaker 1: little bit like I really disagree with that guy on 468 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: a lot of things, which is, of course, you know, 469 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: completely within bounds. But the Jimmy Kimmel stuff, I mean, like, yeah, 470 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 1: he Jimmy Kimmel was kind of a typical kind of 471 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,040 Speaker 1: Hollywood guy, Like he just he was desperate that this 472 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 1: guy be right wing. And I saw this like in 473 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,199 Speaker 1: the media as well. It's kind of embarrassed for a 474 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,400 Speaker 1: lot of mainstream to be kind of like, well, look, 475 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: his parents are Republicans. Must be like in what universe, right, 476 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 1: the case that your parents are bubbled. 477 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 2: Because no conservative family sends their kids off to college 478 00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 2: and they come back, you know, with completely different politics. 479 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 1: Well, I was just thinking about family ties. Say, comey 480 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 1: watched as a kid, like, right, yes, that's what That's 481 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 1: more the way it goes it's a technical termce skinsmogenesis, 482 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 1: but the so so, you know, it's kind of typical 483 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: that he was kind of implying that this guy's got 484 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,879 Speaker 1: to be maga in some of his UH in his 485 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 1: comedy routine on Monday. But then you know, the campaign 486 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: and it was really clearly a campaign to get Jimmy fired. 487 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,679 Speaker 1: Taking this opportunity really got going, you know, with Brendan 488 00:26:45,760 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 1: Carr being really clear about it. And and another thing 489 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 1: that's really important to point out is that, you know, 490 00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:56,359 Speaker 1: months ago they were saying Jimmy Kimmel's next, you know, 491 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,399 Speaker 1: so this was this was a you know, I think, 492 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: a target about opportunity to get this guy fired. And 493 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: I've never been to be clear, I've never seen something 494 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 1: quite like this. And people will always do what about ism, 495 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,719 Speaker 1: like what about what about like Rose Ambar or some 496 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 1: of these other cases. It's like, I just haven't seen 497 00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:19,720 Speaker 1: this level of pressure on mainstream networks to silence to 498 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 1: silence a comedian. 499 00:27:22,560 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 2: Right well, because of my politics, I'm highly annoyed by 500 00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:31,360 Speaker 2: the UH treating anybody to the right side of the 501 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 2: aisle as a moron the way Colbert and Kimmel did. 502 00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:39,240 Speaker 2: But The problem with the government putting pressure on networks 503 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 2: to get rid of them, or broadcast licenses or whatever 504 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 2: is there's gonna be a democratic president someday, and I 505 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,680 Speaker 2: don't want President Gavin Newsom telling his FCC hey, right 506 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 2: wing talk radio is out of control and we need 507 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:53,120 Speaker 2: to do something about this. 508 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is interesting, but the way the Trump administration 509 00:27:57,680 --> 00:28:01,480 Speaker 1: has been running things, it seems like they don't care 510 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 1: about the fact that someone else could have used this 511 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,439 Speaker 1: power in the future, with kind of like an idea 512 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:07,280 Speaker 1: that they're always going to be the ones who are 513 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,879 Speaker 1: making these calls, which I think is foolish. But it's also, 514 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: by the way, rightfully banned it in a lot of 515 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,479 Speaker 1: these cases by the First Amendment. And fire's job in 516 00:28:17,480 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 1: this situation like this is the call balls and strikes, 517 00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:24,480 Speaker 1: and I will get people sometimes saying, oh, the political 518 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 1: situation is so intense right now you have to pick 519 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 1: a side that your quite little First Amendment thing that 520 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,439 Speaker 1: you know doesn't really apply it in this kind of battle. 521 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: And I'm always like, no, right now, the rules of 522 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,280 Speaker 1: the road matter more than ever, and it's our job 523 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: to defend them. 524 00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:45,360 Speaker 2: Specifically, Charlie Kirk, while he was out there doing his thing, 525 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 2: going to college campuses. Did you think that was a 526 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 2: productive thing for free speech in America? 527 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 1: I did. Actually, you know, my disagreement with Charlie Kirk 528 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 1: is mostly due to their scholar their scholar database, the 529 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,080 Speaker 1: scholar Watch, which I was not a big fan of, 530 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: because it resulted in a lot of people, a lot 531 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:07,440 Speaker 1: of tends to get people fired, a lot of you know, 532 00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: a lot of cancer culture. We made a big distinction 533 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 1: between just calling out professors, which you totally can do, 534 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,720 Speaker 1: but you know when you put like this is their 535 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 1: supervisor and like all this kind of stuff to try 536 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:20,080 Speaker 1: to get them fired, I got an issue with that. However, 537 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: you know, Charlie's murder has led me to, you know, 538 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: go back and look at some of his discussions with students, 539 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:27,719 Speaker 1: and I think this is having this effect all over 540 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 1: the country. By the way, yeah, definitely, So political violence 541 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: tends to backfire, and I'm like, wow, Like he dealt 542 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: with some frustrating questions and he dealt with them usually 543 00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 1: like that was the one that I saw with pretty civilly. 544 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 1: So I've left with an impression that it was a 545 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: productive dialogue. 546 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 2: Right. I don't know if you've seen the it's on YouTube. 547 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 2: Charlie Kirk with Bill Maher. They had like a two 548 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 2: hour conversation in Bill Maher's basement a couple of months ago, 549 00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 2: pretty recently, and it was it was as between two 550 00:30:00,800 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 2: guys that agree on nothing is you could possibly imagine 551 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,880 Speaker 2: and if we can't do that, we're doomed. Yeah. 552 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:11,680 Speaker 1: And I'm actually speaking at Sun Valley at Sun Valley, 553 00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 1: at Utah Valley on October thirtieth, and what's crazy. I'm 554 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,480 Speaker 1: just gonna admit it. You know, am I a little spooked? 555 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,120 Speaker 1: You know? Of course I am. But you can't ever 556 00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:26,120 Speaker 1: let the you know, assassin veto win. You have to 557 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: actually show up. You have to you know, pick up 558 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: the mantle. You have to actually you know, have that discussion. 559 00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,640 Speaker 1: And I'm hoping to go there with a message of 560 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,840 Speaker 1: you know, essentially free speech belongs to us all or 561 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:41,360 Speaker 1: belongs to nobody, because I think the younger people are 562 00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,360 Speaker 1: being taught that freedom of speech is the weapon of 563 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 1: the bully, the big and the robber baron. And as 564 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,760 Speaker 1: I say all the time, that is just that history. 565 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:53,239 Speaker 1: You are being miseducated on this topic. So hopefully I 566 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 1: can I'm going to try and Fire is always trying 567 00:30:56,600 --> 00:31:01,160 Speaker 1: to contribute to a deeper, more philosophical understanding of the 568 00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: frankly beautiful role of free speech in human history. 569 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 2: Well, we talk about your books all the time. The 570 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 2: Coddling of the American Mind is my partner. Joe's one 571 00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,720 Speaker 2: of his favorite books of all time. We mentioned stuff 572 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: that you write all the time. What particularly would you 573 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,320 Speaker 2: like us to point people to right now before I 574 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: let you go? 575 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: Sure? I mean, you know, the most important thing is 576 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: that Fire is currently overwhelmed, so we could really use 577 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 1: support from people, and we need the people who care 578 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:29,040 Speaker 1: about free speech for their own side, but also for 579 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: everyone else. We need those principal people are out there 580 00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: to come and help because right now, to use a pun, 581 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: it's a free speech just kind of have a house 582 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: on fire. 583 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:40,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, Greg Lukiana, thanks for your time. 584 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:42,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I take care. 585 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:42,960 Speaker 5: Yea. 586 00:31:43,080 --> 00:31:45,920 Speaker 2: He is really good and he's absolutely right. Like I 587 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 2: can't stand Jimmy Kimmel. I mean, he makes my skin crawl. 588 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,960 Speaker 2: He's so smug. That's the word I was looking for. 589 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:56,959 Speaker 2: He is so freaking smug. But if the FCC can 590 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:58,760 Speaker 2: pressure him off the air, he can pressure Joe and 591 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,520 Speaker 2: I off. They can pressure joean eye off the air 592 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:06,280 Speaker 2: and a different administration absolutely, so that bothers me. I 593 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 2: want to tell you about trust and Will real quick. 594 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:10,400 Speaker 2: This is just a really really good idea. If you 595 00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,840 Speaker 2: don't have a trust and will or trust or will, 596 00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:15,959 Speaker 2: you could end up in a situation if you were 597 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,160 Speaker 2: to pass on where there's expensive legal battles for your 598 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: family to figure out who gets what. The state could 599 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: jump in and make all kinds of decisions that would 600 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 2: horrify you, avoid all that. It starts at one hundred 601 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 2: and ninety nine dollars to start setting up a trust 602 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 2: trust based plan start at four ninety nine, and you 603 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:37,000 Speaker 2: could manage this trust and Will online easy to use website. 604 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 2: They're all states specific based on the laws where you live. 605 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 2: Bank level encryption, live customer support through chat, phone or email, 606 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,680 Speaker 2: so it's easy secure your assets, protect your loved ones 607 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 2: with Trust and Will.

I 610 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 2: know a lot of you are going to be angry 611 00:32:57,600 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 2: and feel like I'm standing up for Jimmy Kimmel because 612 00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 2: I'm not just really rolling around in glee that he 613 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 2: got fired. But uh, once you allow that weapon of 614 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 2: canceling people from the FCC to be wielded against your enemies, 615 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 2: it's going to come back. I just know it is. 616 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 2: We've got a lot more time to talk about this 617 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:21,080 Speaker 2: and other stuff. I hope you can stick around. 618 00:33:22,320 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 7: Former MNA fighter Conor McGregor announced this week vide has 619 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:30,040 Speaker 7: withdrawn from the Irish presidential race after quote careful reflection, 620 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:32,960 Speaker 7: or as it's known in Ireland, sobering up. 621 00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 2: They now, okay, we're getting a number of texts from 622 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:42,400 Speaker 2: people saying the FCC had nothing to do with Jimmy 623 00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 2: Kimmel being fired. These various groups of stations decided they 624 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 2: want to drop him. Okay, we'll play some quotes from 625 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,800 Speaker 2: the FCC commissioner. I'll read you some things that he 626 00:33:53,880 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 2: said in recent days. He was absolutely pressuring people on 627 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,200 Speaker 2: their broadcast license. And I can tell you trust me, 628 00:34:00,240 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 2: I'm in business. We have the radio stations have the 629 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 2: same deal with broadcast licenses TV do as TV does. 630 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 2: Owners get really nervous, really fast if there's even a 631 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 2: whiff of trouble with their license, they just do. It's 632 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:16,840 Speaker 2: been that way my whole career. Just the most subtle 633 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 2: hint of your on the wrong side of things makes 634 00:34:19,080 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 2: people a pucker, if you'll pardon the expression. So we'll 635 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 2: get into that next hour. The FCC did have something 636 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 2: to do with this. I didn't mention this letter the 637 00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 2: other day. So I've been talking about prunes a lot. 638 00:34:32,200 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 2: I will not explain exactly why. You could probably guess. Oh, 639 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 2: I wonder why. It's just a treat I enjoy. Yeah, 640 00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: just a nice little snack, the humble prune. Some of 641 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 2: you like oranges, some of you like a candy bar. 642 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 2: I enjoy it. Prune now and then, or at least 643 00:34:47,120 --> 00:34:48,600 Speaker 2: I have for the last week or so. I had 644 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 2: never had a prune in my life until my doctor 645 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 2: recommended it for a perticigator situation. We don't need to 646 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 2: get into hydration anyway. So the orders from the doctor 647 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 2: was start with run one prune to day, and then 648 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 2: if that doesn't work, go to two prunes. And I've 649 00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 2: found the sweet spot seems to be between four and 650 00:35:06,680 --> 00:35:12,360 Speaker 2: five prunes today, maybe more than you wanted to do. 651 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 2: Whatever works for you, Jack. Anyway, because we talked about 652 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 2: prune so much, to California prune association or network or 653 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 2: company or whatever they are had heard this and sent 654 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 2: us a gift box the other day with all kinds 655 00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: of different kind of prune related treats and a prune 656 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 2: hat and that my son is going to wear to 657 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:29,960 Speaker 2: school and it's good. But anyway, I didn't read from 658 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,719 Speaker 2: the letter. Dear Jack. I'm an avid listener and caught 659 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: your recent segments about prunes and couldn't be happier to 660 00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: share our passion for this dried fruit.
