WEBVTT - There's Joe & Man Can He Dance! 0:00:01.840 --> 0:00:06.160 Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 0:00:06.200 --> 0:00:10.760 Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty arms Strong 0:00:10.800 --> 0:00:24.400 and get and he Armstrong and Getty. 0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:28.520 Kids don't like capitalism. And I think a lot of 0:00:28.560 --> 0:00:30.640 it has to do with social media. The clickbait, right, 0:00:31.400 --> 0:00:34.879 rage bait works better in social media and gets more 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:39.000 people's attention. And if Mundominie is out there saying you're 0:00:39.000 --> 0:00:43.040 getting free housing, you're getting free transportation, you're getting cheaper groceries, 0:00:43.159 --> 0:00:45.120 and that's what they're going to respond positively to. 0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:48.280 Is there any way that can work? No? No, of 0:00:48.280 --> 0:00:48.720 course not. 0:00:48.960 --> 0:00:49.240 No. 0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:58.200 We w estate in America. That's great. Mark Cuban, one 0:00:58.200 --> 0:01:02.760 of the most successful capitalists in history as a billionaire, 0:01:03.200 --> 0:01:05.440 saying to Bill Maher when Bill Maher asked of that 0:01:05.520 --> 0:01:09.200 work in New York, saying no, of course not no. 0:01:09.560 --> 0:01:12.919 The other guy, whoever it was, oh Andrew Ross Sorkin 0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:16.160 talking about how we have a financial illiteracy problem. That's 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:19.160 one hundred percent correct. Yeah, absolutely correct. 0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.440 Well, because the freaking teachers are socialists, so no, they're 0:01:22.440 --> 0:01:25.960 not going to teach you the financial literacy. That says, no, capitalism, 0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:28.479 free markets are good in this way, and here's why 0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.520 rent control and government run grocery stores and all these 0:01:32.520 --> 0:01:34.800 things have been tried don't work. Your teacher is not 0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:38.480 going to do that because they believe in socialism. Right, God, 0:01:38.640 --> 0:01:39.720 what's really interesting. 0:01:40.160 --> 0:01:42.440 You can talk people out of believing in rent control, 0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.200 for instance, in three minutes. And three minutes is a 0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:47.039 little luxurious. You give me two and a half. I'm 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.040 pretty sure I can get it done. But if you're 0:01:49.080 --> 0:01:51.880 never exposed to that sort of thinking that again, socialism 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:55.400 is the greatest scam ever designed, I think. So I'm 0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:59.400 on that topic kind of sorta in the next stuff. 0:01:59.200 --> 0:02:01.680 We're going to talk about it. Andrew Ross Sorkin, who's 0:02:01.720 --> 0:02:04.680 the hero of the left for you know, financial stuff, 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:06.760 said no, it can't work. 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:11.520 Right right, Yeah, So this is kind of a looking 0:02:11.560 --> 0:02:14.800 at the left thing having to do with online culture. 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:18.000 But I came across a piece, really well considered and 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.239 written piece in the Free Press about how a lot 0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:26.359 of young conservatives are getting swept up in really ugly 0:02:26.480 --> 0:02:34.080 stuff online into you know, neo fascism and the whole, like, uh, 0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:37.799 the man is for the whole what's his name? 0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:38.240 Cooper? 0:02:38.280 --> 0:02:41.120 Who talks to a Tucker and tries to claim that 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:43.799 Churchill was a bad guy and Hitler was misunderstood all. 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:46.200 Those historian Darryl Cooper, who's not actually. 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:49.880 Not an effing historian, right exactly, And how a lot 0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:51.560 of young people on the right are getting swayed by 0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:54.320 this stuff too. So it's not entirely a lefty proposition. 0:02:54.400 --> 0:02:58.640 But the headline in the Wall Street Journal over the weekend, Girl, 0:02:58.880 --> 0:03:03.320 take your crazy pitch bills. Antidepressants recast is a hot 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:08.920 lifestyle accessory. Influencers taut the drugs, but many unsuspecting followers 0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:11.160 find the side effects to take the fun out of life, 0:03:11.880 --> 0:03:14.200 and they give a bunch of examples of like this 0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:17.760 one stay at home mom she felt lonely, overwhelmed at times, 0:03:18.280 --> 0:03:22.480 paralyzed with anxiety and self doubt, and so she heard 0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:26.920 a former MTV star talk up lexa pro on a podcast. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.920 She searched for the drug on TikTok. Her go to 0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:34.880 information source and found hashtag lexapro talc and similar niche 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:37.720 online communities where women in their twenties and thirties praised 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.560 the benefits of antidepressants. She posted a video asking for help. 0:03:41.680 --> 0:03:45.320 Someone recommended a telehealth company. She answered a quick questionnaire 0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:49.400 and an online nurse protect practitioner slash drug dealer prescribed 0:03:49.400 --> 0:03:51.720 a generic version of Lexi pro bottle arrived a couple 0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:53.400 of days later, and then this. 0:03:53.440 --> 0:03:57.320 Gal, wo, that's that easy to get on the SSRIs. 0:03:57.360 --> 0:03:59.440 I mean, most doctors are going to throw it at 0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:02.920 you anyway, based on my experience. But she didn't even 0:04:02.960 --> 0:04:03.680 have to leave her house. 0:04:04.760 --> 0:04:08.240 So she immediately starts posting TikTok videos of herself running 0:04:08.240 --> 0:04:10.920 to the mailbox for a pill package, taking a dose, 0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:15.200 using such hashtags as lexapro batties and get help Mama. 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:17.840 In the months that followed, she gushed over the pills 0:04:17.880 --> 0:04:22.839 to her thousands of followers. For a time, she belonged 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:25.760 to a social media movement that's given antidepressants a makeover 0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:30.000 from a stigmatized medicine to a healthy lifestyle accessory, friend 0:04:30.080 --> 0:04:32.159 lightened and empowered young women. 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:34.359 When did it get stigmatized? I must have missed that 0:04:34.480 --> 0:04:36.320 because gazillions of Americans are on it. 0:04:37.080 --> 0:04:40.440 Yeah, well it's gotten less stigmatized. But here's my favorite part. 0:04:41.040 --> 0:04:44.880 Millennial and gen Z influencers, some paid by telehealth companies, 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:53.200 evangelize antidepressants on TikTok and Instagram using hashtags like live laugh, lexapro, lexipro, girly, 0:04:53.560 --> 0:04:58.680 lexa ho and zooft gag lexaho. I know, recasting the 0:04:58.720 --> 0:05:04.960 medications as popc alter touchstones, and on TikTok hashtag antidepressants 0:05:05.040 --> 0:05:08.880 has surpassed one point three billion views, etc. Then they 0:05:08.920 --> 0:05:13.520 go into this list of you know, attractive young women 0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:17.039 and stato moms that tout the benefits of the medicine 0:05:17.080 --> 0:05:19.400 and get thousands of followers and talk thousands of people 0:05:19.400 --> 0:05:22.760 into doing it, who they then give them up and 0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:26.240 wean themselves off because it makes them miserable and ruins 0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:30.000 their lives. But they do that pretty quickly or quit 0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.520 it pretty quietly. Rather and the videos of hey, here's 0:05:33.560 --> 0:05:36.000 my actual long term experience, those don't. 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:37.800 Get nearly as many of you. I'm sure, that's sure. 0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.760 I know plenty of people that are on SSRIs who 0:05:40.800 --> 0:05:42.400 swear by them and are happy with them. But if 0:05:42.400 --> 0:05:45.840 you are put on them or go on them and 0:05:45.880 --> 0:05:49.080 you don't need it, I guess it makes you really 0:05:49.200 --> 0:05:53.560 flat and life feels quite unpleasant. 0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:57.680 Right, crushes your libido, weight gain, et cetera. Just yeah, 0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:01.880 everything is kind of flattened. So anyway, I just thought again, 0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:09.200 this is the democratization of ideas, where an idea can 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.400 reach millions of people worldwide, when if it was just 0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:16.159 happening in your town, the person you know selling it 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:18.520 would be told over and over again that's a bad idea, 0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:23.520 and probably let it drop. And on a similar topic, 0:06:23.560 --> 0:06:27.960 I found this really really interesting. Who did this twenty 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:36.520 twenty four presidential election study big survey mental health challenges 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:45.560 are an important part of my identity? Among boomer males, 0:06:47.000 --> 0:06:51.600 seventy three percent of them essentially said, no matter what 0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:55.359 psychological challenges I face, I will not let them define me. 0:06:56.000 --> 0:06:59.280 Right. That used to be a feeling for most people 0:06:59.400 --> 0:07:04.839 is like you, you would not allow yourself to believe 0:07:04.880 --> 0:07:06.400 you have any of those things. And then even if 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:08.440 it were true, proven, you'd want to kind of keep 0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.640 it on the down low because he didn't want it 0:07:12.680 --> 0:07:15.480 to be your thing. Well, and I. 0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:20.160 Wouldn't want people to look at me and say, oh, 0:07:20.240 --> 0:07:21.960 there's Joe he has anxiety. 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:22.480 Right. 0:07:23.040 --> 0:07:26.040 I mean, I know there's a dozen things, maybe fifty 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:27.080 things I'd rather have. 0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:30.000 You say, and there's Joey's nahole. 0:07:30.040 --> 0:07:33.280 I mean, for instance, it's better anyway there's Joe man. 0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:38.760 Can he dance, so please like a stare please? Uh so. 0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:41.800 Seventy three percent of boomer males essentially said, no matter 0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:44.160 what psychological challenges I face, I will not let them 0:07:44.160 --> 0:07:49.440 define me. Seventy two percent of gen Z females said essentially, 0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:54.240 mental illness is an important part of my identity. Seventy 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.600 two percent said mental health challenges are an important part 0:07:58.640 --> 0:07:59.800 of my identity. 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:03.840 Yeah. That has been my experience in a variety of 0:08:03.880 --> 0:08:09.840 ways with that generation, in hiring them for sitters in 0:08:09.840 --> 0:08:13.120 a variety of different things. Is everybody explains really early 0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:16.120 on what they're I have anxiety, so I have to 0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:21.000 do this, or I've OCD or whatever it is, right right? 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:25.800 Both gen Z men and women view their mental health 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:27.960 as an important part of their identity at a rate 0:08:28.000 --> 0:08:32.920 over five times that of boomers. For instance, Well, unless 0:08:32.960 --> 0:08:38.439 you're older and you grew up in that culture, how 0:08:38.440 --> 0:08:40.040 are you ever going to go through a rough patch 0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:42.760 in your life now where you wouldn't take some sort 0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:44.880 of drug for it, Because, I mean, all your friends are. 0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.000 And rough patches. I've had rough patches that last a 0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.120 freaking long time. I'll tell you that. Sometimes they do. 0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:54.319 Oh yeah, sometimes my own decisions. 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:57.880 I've witnessed young women bonding over their mental health challenges. 0:08:59.280 --> 0:09:03.040 It's it's part of the whole you know, lionization of 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:07.800 the victim, victim culture in essence, and it's supported online 0:09:07.880 --> 0:09:09.840 in a lot of ways that are really really interesting. 0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.240 Maybe I don't be a lesson that they teach you 0:09:12.360 --> 0:09:15.680 more people as you might go through not might. You 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.160 will go through many periods of your life where there 0:09:18.160 --> 0:09:21.720 are weeks or months or maybe half a year where 0:09:21.760 --> 0:09:25.640 you're really down because this or that happened, and then 0:09:25.679 --> 0:09:28.400 you'll come out of it right, but you'll feel like, 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:30.920 I don't know what the point is because you're on 0:09:30.960 --> 0:09:34.240 a journey to discovering what the point is, and sometimes 0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:37.640 that takes a long time. That's not mental illness, that's life. 0:09:37.960 --> 0:09:40.559 Yeah, but I think it's worth going back to the 0:09:40.880 --> 0:09:44.640 previous article that was pointing out that a lot of 0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.040 these people are sponsored by the people selling the pills. 0:09:47.120 --> 0:09:51.560 Of course, yeah, but they dress it up in like 0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:55.560 there's this one influencer, what's her name, cute chick, you know, 0:09:55.880 --> 0:10:02.480 dressed kind of sexy, she's funny, she's wacky. Elena Davis, 0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:05.120 thirty five year old influencer, made this video in twenty 0:10:05.160 --> 0:10:07.640 twenty three of her dress like she's going out to 0:10:07.679 --> 0:10:11.599 the club, laughing and taking her pills and making a 0:10:11.600 --> 0:10:14.439 big deal of how great it is. She weaned herself 0:10:14.440 --> 0:10:17.400 completely off them a couple of years later because they 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:19.240 essentially screwed. 0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:24.400 Up her life. Yeah, good lord, the internet is a 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.520 bad place to be. Did plug it? Did the laws 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:29.880 change around medicine somewhere where these doctors that have never 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:32.520 met you can prescribe you things that you used to 0:10:32.640 --> 0:10:34.360 have to go see here? Yeah? 0:10:34.440 --> 0:10:37.120 Yeah, there's been kind of an evolution through the de 0:10:37.240 --> 0:10:38.840 evolution because there's. 0:10:38.640 --> 0:10:40.440 All kinds of drugs you can get on just by 0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:43.600 basically you just pay for them and you check some 0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:46.200 boxes on a form and they say, sure, we'll send 0:10:46.240 --> 0:10:47.000 them to you. 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.600 You've never met me, you haven't taken any blood work. 0:10:50.440 --> 0:10:52.600 That reminds me, I gotta pop my daily VIAGRAA. I 0:10:52.679 --> 0:10:55.360 like to be ready, you know, like the boy scouts say, 0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:55.959 be prepared. 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:57.320 Huh, Well that's interesting. 0:10:58.040 --> 0:11:03.960 Okay, oh speeding young woman thing.

It's good news 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:48.720 for the first time in the long time. And a 0:12:48.720 --> 0:12:50.200 bunch of other stuff on the way. So stay here. 0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:52.280 Are you strong? 0:12:56.800 --> 0:13:00.920 That Maduro offered everything in its in his country, all 0:13:01.000 --> 0:13:02.079 their natural resources. 0:13:02.080 --> 0:13:04.480 He even recorded a message to you in English recently 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:11.440 offering mediation. He has offered everything. He's offered everything. 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:14.800 You're right, you know why, because he doesn't want to 0:13:14.840 --> 0:13:16.520 fay around with the United States. 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:23.960 Thank everybody, Thank you, thank you, everybody. Lange from the 0:13:24.000 --> 0:13:27.720 President of the United States saying that President Maduur of 0:13:27.880 --> 0:13:32.320 Venezuela does not want to blank f around with the 0:13:32.400 --> 0:13:33.839 United States, which he probably doesn't. 0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:38.480 Actually, no indeed, he's making a show of toughness, but 0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:41.679 behind the scenes, of course, he's saying, hey, let's ratchet this, 0:13:42.160 --> 0:13:42.960 oh buddy. 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:44.880 So we blew another drug boat out of the water 0:13:44.960 --> 0:13:47.360 the other day. Two people survived, and they were sending 0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:49.840 them back to their countries of origin or something like that. 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:53.680 Uh yeah, yeah, and talking tough to the good folks 0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:57.839 in Colombia as well, really tough. We used to have 0:13:57.920 --> 0:14:00.160 a pretty decent relationship with him, but then they start 0:14:00.160 --> 0:14:03.160 to electing leftists and going back to the whole coca 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:04.000 production thing. 0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:07.199 So, yeah, it's a different story. Last week, we were 0:14:07.920 --> 0:14:13.040 mocking health advice that experts had been giving us throughout 0:14:13.040 --> 0:14:15.920 the years. It turned out to be not only wrong, 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:20.360 but the exact opposite of what we should have been doing. 0:14:20.840 --> 0:14:25.240 Each trans fat, Yeah, eat trans fat instead of butter. 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:29.360 Is like, you would only give that device advice to 0:14:29.400 --> 0:14:31.400 someone if you wanted to kill them, or if you 0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:34.040 hated them. You didn't have the nerve to shoot them, 0:14:34.120 --> 0:14:36.840 so you try to kill them with art attack, right, 0:14:36.920 --> 0:14:40.320 So we've been doing the same with kids and peanuts 0:14:40.360 --> 0:14:43.680 for twenty years. It turns out, actually you've known this 0:14:43.720 --> 0:14:45.600 for a while. The rest of the world has known 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:47.880 this for quite a long time. I will read I 0:14:47.920 --> 0:14:49.760 think we had this guy on back in the day. 0:14:49.800 --> 0:14:52.200 He wrote a book called an Abundance of Caution. Anyway, 0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:55.920 he said, and this comes out of the headline peanut 0:14:55.960 --> 0:14:59.760 allergies have plummeted in children. Study shows why is that? 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:02.240 According to this guy who wrote this book, they're out 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:07.640 of fashion. American pediatricians, the experts recommended against early exposure 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:11.000 to peanuts for kids. Do not give little kids peanuts, 0:15:11.000 --> 0:15:13.440 do not let them eat anything with peanuts in case 0:15:13.440 --> 0:15:16.040 they have analogy. And we've been doing this for twenty years, 0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:19.280 which was the opposite of what we should have been doing, 0:15:19.600 --> 0:15:23.040 causing great harmed, untold numbers of kids. They did this 0:15:23.120 --> 0:15:26.640 because despite the facts that for decades, for instance, Israeli 0:15:26.720 --> 0:15:29.080 kids had been eating peanuts from a young age in 0:15:29.120 --> 0:15:31.520 a very low incident of pena analogy in lots of 0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:34.640 other countries, and even despite a belated shift in US guidance, 0:15:34.840 --> 0:15:38.240 evidence was there in the open that exposure was exposure 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:42.640 to peanuts was preventative, yes, Yet out in an abundance 0:15:42.680 --> 0:15:45.360 of caution we went the other direction, leading kids to 0:15:45.400 --> 0:15:47.440 live lives where you have to be scared to death 0:15:47.600 --> 0:15:50.920 of ever come in contact with one molecule of peanuts, 0:15:51.120 --> 0:15:52.800 or it will kill you. Right. 0:15:52.960 --> 0:15:55.520 Well, that reminds me so much of study after study 0:15:55.560 --> 0:15:59.280 has shown this. I mean, it's absolutely unmistakable. Kids who 0:15:59.360 --> 0:16:04.400 live in societies where they're not hyper clean, they let 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:06.560 the kid crawl around on the floor, they got animals 0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:08.360 coming in and out of the house or whatever. They 0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:12.720 have far far fewer allergies and much more robust immune systems. 0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:17.240 Keeping kids hyper clean doesn't do them any favors. I'm 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.760 not in favor of letting your kid crawl around in 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:22.720 an outhouse or whatever, but you dive down into it 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:24.200 particularly bad example. 0:16:24.240 --> 0:16:26.480 I don't think anybody was going to do that. Well, 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:27.280 I picked an. 0:16:27.240 --> 0:16:31.280 Extreme, but yeah, it's that's not doing your kid any favors, 0:16:31.480 --> 0:16:34.480 keeping them hyper clean. But zillions of dollars worth of 0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:37.400 products are sold to you, and they convince you that 0:16:37.440 --> 0:16:39.400 to be a good parent, you should never expose your 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:42.280 child to any dirt or grime or germs, or certainly 0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:43.760 not peanuts. 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:49.120 So so what happened here? You had so some people 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:52.600 are allergic to peanuts, very rare in its natural setting, 0:16:52.600 --> 0:16:54.240 it would seem so. But then so you had a 0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:58.240 couple of kids got die, and then we went crazy 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:00.920 the other direction, like some people well of peanut or allergies, 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.480 we don't have why, so don't let any kid eat peanuts. 0:17:03.760 --> 0:17:07.399 And then you created this allergy yes, and lots of 0:17:07.480 --> 0:17:10.919 kids to where you can have peanut butter sandwiches at 0:17:10.920 --> 0:17:13.639 school and people live in fear for their kids' lives 0:17:13.640 --> 0:17:15.280 because they actually have been an analogy. 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:18.000 Now you get pretzels on airplanes, which is fine because 0:17:18.040 --> 0:17:24.840 I like pretzels. That's that's why, probably a. 0:17:23.600 --> 0:17:27.280 Lower concern with me, kids living their lives of fear 0:17:27.320 --> 0:17:29.680 of dying. But Joe did not get peanuts on airplanes. 0:17:29.720 --> 0:17:30.439 So let's I. 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:33.120 Found them very satisfying. You snacks go, I don't appreciate 0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:33.440 they are. 0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:38.160 I eat lots of nuts. We might actually start endorsing 0:17:38.160 --> 0:17:41.640 a particular nut company because they are an appetite suppressant. 0:17:41.680 --> 0:17:43.960 I really like that about nuts. Oh, I eat nuts 0:17:44.000 --> 0:17:48.640 all the time. I love them. Yeah, Katie, grow up. No, 0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:53.000 I will not grow up. You're about to be a mother. Yeah, exactly, 0:17:53.040 --> 0:17:54.920 You're about to be a mother, and a kid's gonna 0:17:54.960 --> 0:18:01.840 be hilarious. Probably, I bet my bottom dollar Armstrong and getdy. 0:18:03.760 --> 0:18:07.320 So it's fourth down and one yard, fourth and one. 0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:11.119 The Chiefs at least pretend they're going to go for 0:18:11.200 --> 0:18:14.120 it in the football game yesterday against the Oakland or sorry, 0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:18.920 the LA Raiders. Even Tony Romo, the announcer, though new 0:18:19.040 --> 0:18:20.840 they weren't actually gonna go for it. They were gonna 0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:22.639 do what they call a hard count. The quarterback goes 0:18:22.680 --> 0:18:25.119 up there and goes hike, and you try to get 0:18:25.280 --> 0:18:27.239 the other side to jump off sides because they get 0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:29.679 all excited. And then you get a penalty, and then 0:18:29.720 --> 0:18:30.119 you get. 0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:32.679 Tossed out, and so you have the guys shift around, 0:18:32.680 --> 0:18:36.000 and then you go again. Then you have them shift 0:18:36.040 --> 0:18:38.320 around again. The defense is like, would you stop it? 0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:39.280 We're not gonna jump it. 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:41.920 Basically never works. But anyway, this is how it unfolded 0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:46.119 yesterday on fourth and a foot, try to draw them 0:18:46.119 --> 0:18:54.679 off side. Sorry my home, says coach. 0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:59.800 It doesn't they go yeah, they got Yeah, you would 0:18:59.800 --> 0:19:00.760 get up on that one. 0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:02.280 You thought for sure it was a draw. Didn't you 0:19:02.960 --> 0:19:05.600 read drop off side? I believe Peter Carelly even knows this. 0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:08.879 So what happened there was it was a fake play. 0:19:09.000 --> 0:19:11.199 It was a fake hard count. Patrick Mahones goes up 0:19:11.240 --> 0:19:13.720 to the line and says loud enough for the microphones 0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:20.359 to pick up effing never effing works. 0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:21.080 And he's looking toward a sideline like, why are you 0:19:21.119 --> 0:19:22.560 making us to this stupid thing? 0:19:22.840 --> 0:19:27.400 Bad? And then when the Raiders are probably either laughing 0:19:27.600 --> 0:19:30.000 or relaxing or whatever, they do hike the ball and 0:19:30.040 --> 0:19:31.480 run the guy and then they make the first down. 0:19:31.560 --> 0:19:33.359 That's a pretty funny play to run, especially when you 0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:34.480 win forty one to nothing. 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:37.680 Yeah, I'd have kept that one under wraps for when 0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:40.720 you really needed it. But the fake, fake play. 0:19:43.480 --> 0:19:46.320 Yeah, no kidding, Save that one for a serious game 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:50.960 where you actually need it. Anyway, that was fun reading 0:19:51.000 --> 0:19:55.600 this in Bloomberg yesterday, Bloomberg, which I just subscribed to 0:19:57.359 --> 0:20:00.439 cat Can I do this? Y'all? Who can do this? 0:20:00.480 --> 0:20:04.359 You're better than me? So the world is crafted this 0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:08.400 way in so many different ways. Like Amazon suggests go 0:20:08.440 --> 0:20:12.520 ahead and buy whatever you want to buy because our 0:20:12.520 --> 0:20:14.840 return policy is so great. But a lot of it 0:20:14.920 --> 0:20:17.280 is thinking that people like me will never get around 0:20:17.359 --> 0:20:21.480 returning it a healthy enough percentage. It's a winner for them. 0:20:21.680 --> 0:20:23.960 Lots of businesses are you can return the same time 0:20:24.119 --> 0:20:27.359 you want, but you know, I'll even send you the label, 0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:29.320 but they think you'll never get around to it. A 0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:31.679 lot of subscriptions are We're going to give you an 0:20:31.680 --> 0:20:34.800 incredibly low price to subscribe to this. Now it goes 0:20:34.880 --> 0:20:37.000 up at the end of the month, but the first 0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:40.280 month is so cheap. How could you not? Right? And 0:20:40.359 --> 0:20:43.119 I think, you know what, that's perfect, like I just 0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:47.119 did with Bloomberg Bloomberg News dollar ninety nine for the 0:20:47.160 --> 0:20:50.399 first two months. Then it goes to forty dollars a month, 0:20:50.720 --> 0:20:54.960 which is a lot change. We have forty forty dollars 0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:58.840 a month after the other news. After the first two months. 0:20:59.040 --> 0:21:01.120 All I gotta do is reach remember to cancel it 0:21:02.080 --> 0:21:05.760 before the two months are up? Now, will I remember? No? 0:21:06.600 --> 0:21:09.359 But I'm gonna try very hard this time. Set yourself 0:21:09.359 --> 0:21:12.240 a calendar alert, an alarm, I do that sort of thing. 0:21:12.400 --> 0:21:15.680 But I'm such an f up that, oh yeah, there's 0:21:15.720 --> 0:21:17.520 the alert. Good for me. So as soon as I 0:21:17.560 --> 0:21:25.040 get home, I'm gonna go or whatever. But so they 0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:31.000 were talking about this article from several years ago that 0:21:31.119 --> 0:21:34.720 got a tremendous amount of attention about avocado toast. If 0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:38.280 millennials are so poor, is all the millennials talking about 0:21:38.440 --> 0:21:40.440 we can't own homes, we can't make it like you could, 0:21:40.480 --> 0:21:42.439 and blah blah blah. If millennials are so poor, how 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:45.600 come they eat avocado toast? It was this guy who 0:21:46.960 --> 0:21:49.560 writes an economic column was always out to brunch on 0:21:49.600 --> 0:21:52.000 a Saturday or Sunday morning into place is packed with 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:55.840 millennials eating twenty dollars toast, And he said, this doesn't 0:21:55.840 --> 0:21:58.600 fit in with is it just life decisions? Why you 0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:00.520 don't have any money? There's an there's a certain amount 0:22:00.520 --> 0:22:03.359 of truth to that. You've been to Europe, you eat 0:22:03.960 --> 0:22:07.119 avocado toast, but you don't have a down payment for 0:22:07.119 --> 0:22:08.960 a house. Do you think any of those things fit 0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:13.200 together at all anyway? No? No, Okay. When I was 0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:15.040 your age, I hadn't been to Europe, but you've been 0:22:15.080 --> 0:22:19.440 all over Europe. Okay, what it is. But the point 0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:23.240 in Bloomberg is that those days are no longer true anymore. 0:22:24.280 --> 0:22:28.919 The statistics for American millennials have changed rapidly. Some fifty 0:22:29.000 --> 0:22:33.040
