Speaker 1: Armstrong and Geedddy Communications Compound, where we toiled today under

7
00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 1: the title of the show Blondie Bondy Going Going Gondhy

8
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:53,279
Speaker 1: or if you prefer that. If you prefer let's all

9
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 1: muse about the streets of horn Moves. It's the key

10
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:03,800
Speaker 1: to everything, Jack, the key to ever anything. Somebody needs

11
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 1: to compile all these into a book, a coffee table book,

12
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: a poor, poorly selling book, but a big coffee table book,

13
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 1: lots of pictures of you and all these different titles

14
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:18,679
Speaker 1: gesturing like a Shakespeare active I'm told that book is

15
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: being produced. Beautiful, go ahead, fantastic, They all do it.

16
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 1: It's Friday. We made it to Friday. We all made it.

17
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: You wondered for a while if you're gonna make it?

18
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 1: Didn't you? We all did? But I don't know if

19
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:35,360
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make it. So you made it without cracking fantastic. Yeah,

20
00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: you know, it is Good Friday. And do you remember

21
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: why a month or so ago we were talking about

22
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: Tom Holland, the historian all the time he ended up

23
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: in the news, at least in conservative circles. Historian Tom Holland,

24
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:55,600
Speaker 1: his book Dominion. Why did that burbal up into the

25
00:01:55,760 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: news flow? Oh my goodness, we're discussing his ida, certainly,

26
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: but I don't remember that. It wasn't just us though.

27
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: It became a thing on the right, and I don't

28
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 1: remember what drove It doesn't make any difference at this

29
00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: point because it was some discussion that was going on

30
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:16,640
Speaker 1: in America about focusing on the Roman Empire or something.

31
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 1: I don't know what it was, but anyway, I was

32
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 1: thinking about that today on Good Friday. Just if you

33
00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: have any interest in a new perspective it was new

34
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 1: to me anyway, perspective on the whole Christian Oh, I

35
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: know what it was now, It was that there, I

36
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,960
Speaker 1: think it was the whole. There is no culture. Western

37
00:02:41,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: civilization has no culture. Oh my god. One of the

38
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 1: most stupid things that's ever been uttered in the English

39
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 1: language or any other. Yes, it's coming back to me now.

40
00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: So AOC's speech there in Europe about you know, Western

41
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,080
Speaker 1: culture and there is no Western culture in all that

42
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: different sort of stuff, and the pushback on that that

43
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:04,679
Speaker 1: there is Western culture is is, uh, there is a

44
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: Western culture and it's a very, very big deal. And

45
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: Tom Holland's book came up a lot because his book

46
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 1: Dominion is all about how Western culture really is Christianity.

47
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:16,679
Speaker 1: Whether you're a Christian or not, you're you're just we're

48
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:20,760
Speaker 1: all living in Christianity, whether you don't believe it all

49
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,079
Speaker 1: never been a church in your life, it's just been

50
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 1: that dominant a philosophy. Some of your most Western culture

51
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: is fundamental precepts about the way humans should behave come

52
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: from the Judeo Christian tradition, whether you know it or not.

53
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: Yeah right, yeah, exactly. And he makes the argument that

54
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 1: like a lot of your woke stuff, which is kind

55
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: of you know, odd, because the woke crowd tends to

56
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: be really anti religion, is all driven by, uh, to

57
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: my mind, in a an overreach of the idea of uh,

58
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: you know, the least of us and all that sort

59
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,920
Speaker 1: of stuff. But but that's where it all comes from,

60
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 1: is the Christian idea or at least, that's one of

61
00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: the pride bars they use to acquire power, is to

62
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 1: appeal to our Christian beliefs and about the underdog and

63
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,960
Speaker 1: the rest of it. Yeah, exactly. This is a long

64
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: way for me to getting to remember why I even

65
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: learned about this. And it also the whole woke thing

66
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 1: bears so many of the hallmarks of a fundamentalist religion.

67
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 1: But you know, it's a topic for another day. If

68
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: you want a different perspective on the whole Christianity thing

69
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,839
Speaker 1: on this Good Friday, you don't have to read the

70
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:33,679
Speaker 1: thousand page book if you don't want to, have plenty

71
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 1: of YouTube videos of Tom Holland, and he's a very

72
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: easy to listen to, likable guy, explains things in a

73
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: very easy way about the Crucifixish Crucifixion on Good Friday

74
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 1: and the way that changed Western culture and how it

75
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: was a completely different way of looking at the world

76
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 1: of the powerless having the power over the powerful and everything,

77
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 1: and it was absolutely fascinating me, like mind blowing different

78
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 1: way of looking at all of it. And on this

79
00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 1: Good Friday, if you want to take a fresh perspective,

80
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: I highly recommend looking into that. That is a fabulous

81
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,320
Speaker 1: thing you've brought to us. I brought squat in terms

82
00:05:12,320 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 1: of perspective. It brought those titles. But Dad, please please,

83
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 1: they're a mouse next to the elephant of your excellent recommendation.

84
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,360
Speaker 1: Let's all muse about the straits of horror, mus I mean,

85
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 1: that's fantastic, It's all right, my god. Maybe I'll go

86
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 1: into a later nine o'clock hour when we stretch out

87
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:37,279
Speaker 1: sometimes because we're just tired of the show and really

88
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: just going through the motions at the last hour of

89
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,279
Speaker 1: the show, explain a little bit of what Tom Holland

90
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: is saying by that, why the crucifixion was an upending

91
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: of world philosophy that we now all live in. I

92
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 1: could not love that idea more. That's good stuff. Straight

93
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 1: uph horr moose still closed, looks like still no ships

94
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:01,120
Speaker 1: going through there, And that is become the focus of

95
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: all of the efforts, all of the planning, all of

96
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,799
Speaker 1: the what if ism is centered on the straits of Hormones.

97
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 1: Because Iran, which has very very little, you know, power

98
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 1: to project power opportunity to project power, has enormous power

99
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: over the world economy through that little stupid expanse of

100
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:28,480
Speaker 1: water is it very difficult to pry that away from them? Yeah?

101
00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 1: Is this going to end up being a forcing mechanism

102
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 1: on Europe to have to become a military power or

103
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 1: at least wake up to the fact that, geez, we

104
00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: probably ought to be a military power. We probably ought

105
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 1: to be able to protect ourselves and project our own

106
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 1: interests around the world and not just count on the

107
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: United States all the time. That question opens up another

108
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 1: delicious can of worms. I was just looking at the

109
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,279
Speaker 1: budget request from the White House, which includes record setting

110
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,880
Speaker 1: spending on defense, which is necessary in my mind, And

111
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 1: the point was made by at least one learned commentator

112
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: that the rub is our welfare programs are on autopilot

113
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:14,600
Speaker 1: growth and we're already going broke. So how are we

114
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: going to square that? Well? Europe has got that problem

115
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: time six. I mean, they are utterly drowning in their

116
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: welfare states and have completely lost the muscles of developing

117
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 1: military power, both personnel and technically, so many they're hurting.

118
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 1: They should, they should listen to what you were hinting

119
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,320
Speaker 1: at there, but I'm not sure they can. Yeah, that's

120
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 1: a good one. I said this yesterday, right when we

121
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: got off the air the news broke that Trump had

122
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: fired the attorney general the news media, and that most

123
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 1: of them live in Washington, DC or New York. They're

124
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 1: so into that sort of stuff. I would like to

125
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 1: know the actual number is at one in a thousand.

126
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:01,000
Speaker 1: It might not even be that many people who care

127
00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 1: whether or not the Attorney General got fired or paid

128
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,320
Speaker 1: any attention or it means anything to them at all.

129
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: I don't think it'd be one in a thousand. I

130
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't have a sense of that. I

131
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 1: think it's more than you think, but I don't know

132
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 1: how much more. Here's here's a question for you. How

133
00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:21,040
Speaker 1: many people will bring it up in conversation today? Nobody?

134
00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,760
Speaker 1: Because that's a pretty good threshold for how much you

135
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 1: care about something or how interested you are, isn't it. Yeah? Yeah, Oh,

136
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,600
Speaker 1: I try this. Try bringing it up at a little

137
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: gathering this afternoon and look at have everybody look around,

138
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:38,560
Speaker 1: like what somebody say something about sports or something, you

139
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,199
Speaker 1: know what. I'm going to be part of a gathering

140
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,839
Speaker 1: this evening. I'll try it if you want. Yeah, it's

141
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: a pretty aware crowd, but we'll see. I think even then,

142
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: I'll bet the conversation doesn't last more than a minute,

143
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 1: So you preferred the straits before moves headline over the

144
00:08:54,800 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 1: BONDI one I have the headline is I just don't

145
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 1: think it's an interesting story, right? Yeah? Yeah, what a

146
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: thankless task that is. I'm gonna bring it up. Being

147
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,200
Speaker 1: Trump's attorney general. Oh lord, you would have to you know,

148
00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,360
Speaker 1: he'd call hey, and you'd have to say to your

149
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,520
Speaker 1: wife or your husband, who's probably young and hot, because

150
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:17,199
Speaker 1: I have a feeling the next person will be young

151
00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,360
Speaker 1: and hot. You'd have to say, Wow, this is like

152
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 1: the honor of a lifetime. And I'm just gonna get murdered.

153
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,840
Speaker 1: It's going to be six to twelve months, and then

154
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 1: Trump is going to throw me out on my ear

155

184

Speaker 1: about the umpires because baseball season started and they got

186
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: the robot hops and everything like that. Very hard job

187
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,440
Speaker 1: to sit back there and try to call balls and strikes.

188
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 1: But you don't have to run up and down the

189
00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: field or the court like you do in the NBA

190
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,640
Speaker 1: or the NFL. That would be quite the different job.

191
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 1: You gotta be in such good shape to be a

192
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,640

00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:48,160
Speaker 1: that line of work, I like the one where I

197
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 1: just stand in one spot and she's gotta keep my

198
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,240
Speaker 1: on something. I like the tennis judges. They get to

199
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: set Oh yeah, tennis judges, that's even better. I'm sitting

201
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,640

202
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: I will stand by this being an NFL referee as

203
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 1: men's work period, Have men do it. The problems with

204
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: the women is they're just too too many. There's too

205
00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: many women. No, no, the problems are too many. Oh

206
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,880
Speaker 1: oh okay, kind of like the deal with women in

207
00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: the military. You mean oh yeah, yeah, yeah. It just

208
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 1: creates a dynamic that's too got too many issues, right,

209
00:12:31,559 --> 00:12:36,320
Speaker 1: it's just no, no, do something else. You don't mean

212
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: floor is not going to vacuum itself. But no, I'm

213
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:51,440
Speaker 1: in a different profession. Oh god, oh that reminds me.

214
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: That reminds me do editoring little promos that we record

215
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,680
Speaker 1: so they run on stations all over the country so

216
00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 1: people hopefully will tune in the next day. I mentioned

217
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 1: the According to the Wall Street Journal, the quote unquote

218
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 1: surefire new path to American prosperity. What line of work

219
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: is that? We will reveal that to you. I like

220
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,040
Speaker 1: that briefly back to us throwing back our heads and

221
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 1: laughter over the you know, vacuum or something. That's the

222
00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:22,560
Speaker 1: classic Ricky Gervais. It's funny because we don't believe it's true.

223
00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:27,800
Speaker 1: That's why it's funny, right, correct, Yeah, yeah, that's a

224
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 1: great example, and those trying to discredit us as they

225
00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:36,559
Speaker 1: have through the years we won. I would say, listen

226
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:39,080
Speaker 1: to the sexist jokes they made, and they all laugh

227
00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:43,120
Speaker 1: at that. It's confirming that that attitude is not good.

228
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: That's why it's funny. Well a woman made it, so yeah,

232
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 1: war and Trump yesterday. In response, I guess to Trump

233
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 1: saying snarky things about them the day before. Anyway, we

234
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 1: can touch on that a little later, Kiers Starmer, who's

235
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: got the similar approval ratings as gonorrhea. All right, more

00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:50,399
Speaker 1: That's how you get the horses to come back to

308
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: the barn. I don't know what was that. Is there

309
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 1: any decision in particular you disagree with? Yes, we're okay.

310
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 1: So I would start with, we lost the plot. We

311
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: as democrats nationally from LATINX to defunding the police. Well,

312
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 1: I'm a truth seeker. They need to know the truth.

313
00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 1: We're Tron. You know, forgive me. You know this is

314
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 1: embarrassing and.

315
00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 6: This is not about Chinese billionaires or billionaires from other countries.

316
00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 1: This was about slaves. Probably the best line of the

317
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,720
Speaker 1: oral argument where John Sower said, in a new world

318
00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:40,199
Speaker 1: now is just the leader pointed out and John Roberts replied, well,

319
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 1: it's a new world. It's the same constitution.

320
00:19:43,359 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 6: I do see.

321
00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: A deal could be soon.

322
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 4: Ron's president penned a letter to the American people saying

323
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:52,840
Speaker 4: that Iran is.

324
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 1: Not a threat. The blunt warning from Iran any American

325
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:02,520
Speaker 1: troops invading would be set on fire. We're going to bring.

326
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:04,919
Speaker 6: Them back to the Stone ages where they belong.

327
00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: President Trump doesn't bluff and he does not back down.

328
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 1: You can ask Kamanian about that. Police found two white

329
00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: pills in Woods's pocket. He was sweating profusely. His movements

330
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:20,879
Speaker 1: were lesargic and slow. I was a formicator. I was

331
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 1: a pornography addict, and I used to get drawn. Did

332
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:30,080
Speaker 1: you know once about a dog from a blacksmith as

333
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,520
Speaker 1: soon as we got it home and made a bolt

334
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: for the door. It's Clips of the Week. Eh, those

335
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 1: were funny jokes speaking of Ai, which that turned out

336
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:46,120
Speaker 1: to be. I was reminded during Clips of the Week

337
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:49,600
Speaker 1: of the little kid asked by CNN, why are you

338
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:51,320
Speaker 1: so excited to be here be part of history at

339
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 1: the big launching? And Katie and I both well, we're

340
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,600
Speaker 1: talking about using the clip. People were making a big

341
00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: deal out of it because he dropped ant bomb. Katie

342
00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 1: and I both saw the clip where he quite clearly

343
00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:05,719
Speaker 1: said freakin yeah, going back to the freaking moon. And

344
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 1: then you saw a clip where he quite clearly dropped

345
00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:12,639
Speaker 1: the F bomb. Yeah, And Katie and I came that

346
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:14,760
Speaker 1: it did, was yours that it did? Which one was real?

347
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,199
Speaker 1: We're not matter in this case, but clearly you know

348
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,640
Speaker 1: it matters in the big picture. Yeah. Yeah, there's gonna

349
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 1: be a lot of that going forward. Did that interview

350
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:33,080
Speaker 1: even happen? Who knows? No kidding? So Trump was making

351
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,840
Speaker 1: jokes about Macrone and his wife. Do you remember the

352
00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 1: incident from the plane where there were cameras, The door

353
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:40,679
Speaker 1: was opened the plane, they were inside the plane and

354
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: she shoved him in the face. Yeah, yeah, kind of

355
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 1: a half slap, half punch. Get back from Why you

356
00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: lose that? What did we decide to me? Panty waste?

357
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: What did we decide on that? The dysfunctional marriage? I

358
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: think see did a forceful shove of the face. There's no,

359
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:07,840
Speaker 1: it didn't seem cool. It's beyond playful. That's a little munch. No, no, no,

360
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,199
Speaker 1: there was anger there anyway. So Trump referenced that the

361
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 1: other day behind closed doors, but it leaked out. It

362
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: sounded like this, Did.

363
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 6: I call up France Macron whose wife freats him extremely

364
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:29,600
Speaker 6: badly and still recovering from the right to the job,

365
00:22:30,560 --> 00:22:33,080
Speaker 6: And I say, Emmanuel.

366
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,280
Speaker 1: So yeah, So that wasn't supposed to be. That was

367
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:40,400
Speaker 1: with you know, just his friends, And somehow the White

368
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: House posted that accidentally and it came out. So I

369
00:22:44,000 --> 00:22:46,200
Speaker 1: don't know if Macron knows that or not that it

370
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 1: wasn't supposed to be public that I might not make

371
00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 1: any difference anyway. So Macron was asked about that yesterday

372
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:57,640
Speaker 1: over in Europe, and Macrone said, those were neither elegant

373
00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 1: nor befitting a president. I'm not going to respond to them.

374
00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:06,000
Speaker 1: They don't deserve a response. You just responded, you don't

375
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,480
Speaker 1: get to do both. But then he said, and you

376
00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 1: know whether he would have said this on its own

377
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:19,240
Speaker 1: or not. Who knows he might have. Uh, I don't know.

378
00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:21,560
Speaker 1: If I had a little dust up with my wife

379
00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: and somebody made a joke about it, I'd be pretty

380
00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: freaking mad. Yeah, But if you're a public figure and

381
00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:32,520
Speaker 1: it occurred in public, come on, but another leader, another

382
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,160
Speaker 1: person in your job stern my dust again. Yep, you're right,

383
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 1: You're right. That's pretty out of bounds anyway. So Macrone

384
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:44,800
Speaker 1: was asked about what Trump said. Trump said, France and

385
00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 1: Europe has an unseerious approach to war, and Macrone said, well,

386
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,119
Speaker 1: when we're serious, we don't say the opposite of what

387
00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: we said the day before, which is, you know, not

388
00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:04,280
Speaker 1: exactly where we usually are in terms of the NATO alliance. No,

389
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 1: and is contemptuous as I am toward Macron in the

390
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 1: French in general to say, hey, don't spring s like

391
00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 1: this on us. You gotta give us a heads up.

392
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 1: That's that's not a crazy, you know, request to make. Yeah.

393
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,160
Speaker 1: Macrone brushed aside Trump's latest threat to carry out devastating

394
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,680
Speaker 1: a tax against Iran and talks about having Europe open

395
00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: the straits of horror moves, and Macrone said, I'm not

396
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: here to comment on an operation that the Americans decided

397
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 1: on the Israelis on their own. They can later complain

398
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 1: that they aren't being supported in this operation that they

399
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: decided on a loan. It's not our operation. Uh. I

400
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: don't get the not letting us use your bases to

401
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:52,919
Speaker 1: like refuel her Land. I mean that's not exactly engaging

402
00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 1: in the war. No, that's that's not what he said,

403
00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:01,680
Speaker 1: which is it's your operation that's active. Disengage. Yeah, since

404
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: we routinely use those bases and have been protecting their

405
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: lazy welfare drowning asses for quite some time from those bases. Yeah,

406
00:25:11,320 --> 00:25:13,240
Speaker 1: you can make the argument for your friends are Britain

407
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 1: that we're not sending a ship or fighter planes. We

408
00:25:16,640 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: didn't start this war for you to ask us. We

409
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 1: would argued against us blah blah blah whatever. Right, but

410
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,040
Speaker 1: the not letting you land to refuel or park your

411
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: planes there for a while or whatever is actively getting

412
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,639
Speaker 1: in the way of us prosecuting the war, which is

413
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,960
Speaker 1: a different thing. Well. Yeah, honestly, in this this little

414
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:37,520
Speaker 1: dust up our relationship with France, it reminds me of

415
00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 1: Macron's relationship with his wife, his pugilistic wife. Everybody ought

416
00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:44,840
Speaker 1: to calm down. Who may or may not have junk,

417
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: We don't know. Just no, no, I will not go

418
00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: there at canvas. No, everybody needs to calm down and

419
00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,320
Speaker 1: quit posturing. Come on, now, we're old friends, our first

420
00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,560
Speaker 1: ally France, back when they were not useless. Yeah. I

421
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:04,520
Speaker 1: don't know where this is going in general, or the

422
00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 1: Europe NATO aspect of it, well, the whole thing really,

423
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,919
Speaker 1: but yeah, the Europe NATO thing is it? Does it

424
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: coming to an end? Macron goes on to say that

425
00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,399
Speaker 1: Trump is hollowing out in NATO every day by making

426
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:22,119
Speaker 1: these comments. Again, he might have a point, but the

427
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:25,320
Speaker 1: Brits and the French have so hollowed out their their

428
00:26:25,680 --> 00:26:28,520
Speaker 1: ability to project power in any of the Germans and

429
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: the Germans. Yeah, Germans not quite as badly as those

430
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,199
Speaker 1: other two, because at least they have the will to

431
00:26:33,200 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 1: turn it around, I think. But I mean they have

432
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 1: so devalued themselves as allies. They're they're practically useless as

433
00:26:40,359 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 1: allies except economically that you know, with all due respect

434
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,080
Speaker 1: to their frenchie. Oh you're a weakling. This is not

435
00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,280
Speaker 1: a point worth arguing about. But the Germans, because they've

436
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 1: been under the American security umbrella, right, go ahead, But

437
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: the Germans have the number one economy in Europe and

438
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:58,960
Speaker 1: are as weak as they are, and they were and

439
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:01,880
Speaker 1: they and they signed off on a pipeline with Russia

440
00:27:01,960 --> 00:27:07,240
Speaker 1: to be dependent on their energy sources. I mean, that

441
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: was the hell is that that was under the horrifying

442
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:15,480
Speaker 1: Angla mircle, who history cannot judge harshly enough anyway. I

443
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 1: don't know. What I wonder is how this is going

444
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: to be portrayed fifteen, twenty five, fifty years from now

445
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 1: and people look back on this. Will this be Trump

446
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 1: destroying the greatest alliance of all time? Or was it

447
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 1: just going that direction and maybe he pointed it out

448
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,439
Speaker 1: or hurried it along or whatever. Yeah, it'll probably have

449
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,959
Speaker 1: something like an Enron feel, where you know when the

450
00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,159
Speaker 1: investigation's done, people will be like, oh my god, this

451
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:40,720
Speaker 1: was crumbling for like two years before it actually crumbled. Yeah,

452
00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 1: I don't know. That would be unfortunate because NATO obviously

453
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:48,520
Speaker 1: has been such an amazing force for stability. But you know,

454
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 1: don't you think it a real crisis that Article five

455
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,960
Speaker 1: is designed for an attack on one as an attack

456
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: on all. But we'll all, for the most part being

457
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 1: it to get anyway, if China attacked France, you don't

458
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:08,240
Speaker 1: need the NATO agreement to have the United States Great

459
00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:15,040
Speaker 1: Britain whoever come to defense, right, Yeah? Yeah, probably. I

460
00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:17,520
Speaker 1: just keep thinking, you know, you're a good old friend.

461
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 1: Finally rallies to your side. Let's forget those little differences

462
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,680
Speaker 1: we've had. We've been friends for centuries. We're with you,

463
00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 1: but they show up with one arm in the sling

464
00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 1: and the other one like I abhor violence, Like oh

465
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:34,439
Speaker 1: my god, thanks for rallying to my aid. France, or

466
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: maybe somebody speak speaking a different language than French, who

467
00:28:37,600 --> 00:28:41,760
Speaker 1: says I'm on the other for the other side. Yeah, Britain,

468
00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 1: the greatest naval force on the planet for what a century,

469
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,320
Speaker 1: century and a half, two centuries now, is so hollowed out.

470
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 1: They can barely launch a regatta from Britain. They can

471
00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: barely go deep sea fishing their navy. It's terrible. So

472
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: we can run through what all the experts saying about

473
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 1: the jobs numbers that came out really beat expectations. What

474
00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,840
Speaker 1: does that mean? All those jobs significantly more? They thought?

475
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: Where does that fit in with the whole Seventy seven

476
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,760
Speaker 1: percent of Americans think the economy is bad or Trump's

477
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 1: policies have made things worse. How does that all fit together?

478
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:18,520
Speaker 1: So and the sure path to uh to financial success,

479
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 1: according to the Wall Street Journal. Next, I want to

480
00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:22,760
Speaker 1: hear that I need I need to write that down.

481
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:27,000
Speaker 1: Whosh huh, all write that down? Put that into action today.

482
00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 1: You're too old forget it. You fail. No, you have

483
00:29:30,200 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 1: no future, but others might. That's disappointing. What are you

484
00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 1: gonna do? Is that my good Friday? You have no future?

485
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 1: That's your good Friday? So we've got mail bag. Next,

486
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 1: stay here. I'm wearing a Dodger's hat today. I've decided

487
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:57,520
Speaker 1: to just jump on the bandwagon. Wow, you can't beat them.

488
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:00,760
Speaker 1: That there is here. Just you've capitulate. You've joined the

489
00:30:01,080 --> 00:30:03,760
Speaker 1: evil empire. Okay, all right, fair enough, here's your freedom

490
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:07,000
Speaker 1: loving quote of the day. Continuing on a series about war,

491
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 1: I found both of these very interesting and somewhat ironic.

492
00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:14,800
Speaker 1: First of all, this one from Robert E. Lee damn

493
00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,320
Speaker 1: reb what a cruel thing war is to fill our

494
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:22,480
Speaker 1: hearts with hatred instead of love for our neighbors. And

495
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 1: this from one of my intellectual heroes, Ludwig von Meses.

496
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: If men do not now succeed in abolishing war, civilization

497
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:35,360
Speaker 1: and mankind are doomed. I would ask all old Lou

498
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:40,360
Speaker 1: von mess Lou, how are you going to abolish war? Wow?

499
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 1: As long as there are greedheads or the evil, or

500
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 1: racists or religious fanatics, they're gonna make war. So I've

501
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: got to be ready for war. I can't talking about

502
00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 1: So is that a childish notion or was that him

503
00:30:54,600 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: just stating like kind of in a sarcast way, We're

504
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: going to destroy ourselves and there's nothing no stopping it.

505
00:31:05,000 --> 00:31:09,400
Speaker 1: I really don't know. Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah, yeah, Well,

506
00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 1: the greater philosophers than we have taken on that question

507
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,719
Speaker 1: and failed. So let's move on. Mailbag. By the way,

508
00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,560
Speaker 1: if I wanted to wear a hat for the best

509
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:19,960
Speaker 1: record in baseball so far. A weekend, I'd be wearing

510
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:25,400
Speaker 1: a Florida Marlin's hat. Oh how about that? Yeah? Drop

511
00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 1: this note. Mail bag at Armstrong E Geddy dot com

512
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:30,960
Speaker 1: got this from Marcus San Francisco, longtime correspondent. Shout out Mark.

513
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: If the Supreme Court is going to make this stupid

514
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:37,800
Speaker 1: ruling meaning not or continuing to allow birthright citizenship, and

515
00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,400
Speaker 1: the Supreme Court has made many tremendously wrong rulings over

516
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 1: the years, birthright citizenship could be addressed by Congress by

517
00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:46,400
Speaker 1: passing the law. This will have to be dealt with eventually,

518
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:49,640
Speaker 1: unless we're determined to commit slow but steady national suicide.

519
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 1: I would agree that's that's the answer for changing times. Sure, Sure,

520
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:02,160
Speaker 1: of course another jay in Santos Rights. If the strait

521
00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: of horn Moves is open a free flowing commerce in

522
00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 1: the next couple of weeks, I think most Americans would

523
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 1: care even less about the war than they do or

524
00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 1: its outcome, because gas prices would fall in the market

525
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 1: would go way up. You're right. I also think we

526
00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:16,040
Speaker 1: should leave some of those bases that are in countries

527
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,000
Speaker 1: that wouldn't let us use them, leave them exposed. I

528
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:23,920
Speaker 1: hear you talking, my friend. Fascinating note from a longtime correspondent,

529
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 1: Alvin in Berkeley, heard you guys talking about how rockets

530
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 1: get a boost from the Earth's spin as they blast

531
00:32:28,680 --> 00:32:31,080
Speaker 1: off from Florida and Texas. The Earth's speed at the

532
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 1: equator is about one thousand and thirty nine miles per hour.

533
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,640
Speaker 1: The circumference of the Earth is around twenty five thousand miles.

534
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 1: Because I'm sure you know I've forgotten, but yeah, I

535
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 1: think I'd learned that seventy three times in my life.

536
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 1: When you divide that by one thousand and thirty nine, voila.

537
00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,240
Speaker 1: You get twenty four hours in a day. Say it's easy.

538
00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:51,120
Speaker 1: And when a rocket blasts off toward the east and

539
00:32:51,160 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: it gets above the atmosphere, it benefits from the fact

540
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,920
Speaker 1: that the launch pad was already moving east at over

541
00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 1: one thousand miles per hour. I learned these things while

542
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: getting a master's degree from in nineteen sixty four Bee

543
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: before Epstein. That's funny, Elva. Those five years were great

544
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 1: for this farm boy from Texas. Even got a trip

545
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,800
Speaker 1: to Cape Canaveral from doctor Charles Draper and saw Saturn

546
00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 1: five on the launch pad. Even met Edwin Aldrin once

547
00:33:16,800 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 1: he was in the aeronautics and astronautics class with us.

548
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:22,479
Speaker 1: Great to have lived through all these things, and so

549
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 1: neat to hear you guys on the radio. Thanks Alvin,

550
00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,640
Speaker 1: what a great note. I'm gonna try to commit that

551
00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:30,360
Speaker 1: to memory, but who knows how ill does My high

552
00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: schoolers said one of his friends is super into the

553
00:33:32,960 --> 00:33:35,520
Speaker 1: space launch and had his phone out during class to

554
00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 1: be able to try to catch the launch and everything

555
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 1: like that. I'm glad it's, you know, capturing some people's imagination. Good. Yeah, yeah,

556
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: that's such a healthy thing. How about this from Eric's

557
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:52,640
Speaker 1: space Cadet Crotty in Beautiful Astoria, Oregon. The malfunction? Oh boy, please,

558
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 1: let's be adults about this discussion. Excuse me, the malfunctioning

559
00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:00,920
Speaker 1: crapper on the Artemis two. Eric be more elegant than

560
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: that in the future okay has drawn a few chushes,

561
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 1: but it's worth recalling. The Apollo eight mission had it

562
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:11,040
Speaker 1: much worse. Colonel Frank Borman evidently was sick at launched,

563
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:17,120
Speaker 1: they just didn't know it, and had an intestinal fluish problem.

564
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:20,400
Speaker 1: About twelve hours into the mission. He vomited twice and

565
00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,440
Speaker 1: also had problems at the other end, and that's I

566
00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:27,720
Speaker 1: remember that he had had eaten two large Papa John's

567
00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,080
Speaker 1: pizzas the night. I don't believe that's accurate. Now, his crewmates,

568
00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 1: James Lovell and William Anders did their best to clean

569
00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:39,520
Speaker 1: up the Drifting Goblets. I'll leave it at that. These

570
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:41,880
Speaker 1: early astronauts were even bigger heroes in my eyes the

571
00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,120
Speaker 1: more I learned about what they went through. God's speed

572
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:48,680
Speaker 1: artemists too. It's nothing apparent hasn't dealt with twenty five times.

573
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,480
Speaker 1: I used to sing in an a cappella group at

574
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:58,920
Speaker 1: Renaissance fairs. We were called the Drifting Goblets. Were you

575
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 1: wearing tights? I must know, Yes, the little shoes with

576
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,240
Speaker 1: the turned up front end. Oh charming. It was really

577
00:35:06,280 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 1: something A lot of life are made and sort of music.

578
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 1: We also got an email we have no time for

579
00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:14,880
Speaker 1: right now, but a meditation on fame and its effects

580
00:35:14,880 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: that I found really insightful. So stay tuned. Okay, a

581
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: lot more on the way If you miss this segment,
