1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,120
Speaker 1: Have you ever wondered how some statues got erected? And no,

2
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:05,640
Speaker 1: it wasn't from the wandering hands of a tourist at

3
00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 1: the Washington Monument. Thanks you, guys, Thank you. I'll be

4
00:00:10,320 --> 00:00:15,440
Speaker 1: here all afternoon morning, all right, anyway, But there are

5
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: some random statues in this country, and it's about to

6
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 1: get even more randomer. Why if that's a word, Because

7
00:00:22,640 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: the White House and Donald Trump, in his last days

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,240
Speaker 1: as the President, issued an executive order to construct what's

9
00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: called the Garden of American hero Really, which includes statues

10
00:00:33,680 --> 00:00:36,600
Speaker 1: of two hundred and fifty historical figures and dead celebrities

11
00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,640
Speaker 1: from entertainment, sports, literature, and politics. Yeah. I don't know

12
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 1: why we need statues for these some of these people,

13
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: well most of these people, I don't even know why

14
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 1: we really need statues. The list of people that were

15
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: chosen to have statues made of them are a bit random,

16
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 1: and there's no indication as to why they were chosen

17
00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: or if Donald Trump personally chose them himself. But the

18
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: list is pretty weird. The just calls them quote some

19
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: of the greatest Americans who have ever lived and heroes

20
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: who deserve honor. The list of people that are going

21
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,119
Speaker 1: to be in the Garden of American Heroes. Two hundred

22
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:13,360
Speaker 1: fifty historical figures. The privilege are going to steve statues.

23
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,080
Speaker 1: There are the classic historical figures like Alexander Graham, Bell boring,

24
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: Johnny Applesea Chapman boring, Helen Keller boring, Mark Twain boring.

25
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: But the list goes on and on of these two

26
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:29,760
Speaker 1: hundred fifty statues that are supposed to be erected, but

27
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: the list goes on and on to other people like

28
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 1: Steve Jobs. Steve Jobs, They're gonna make a statue of

29
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: Steve Jobs. Okay, okay, Billy Graham's a preacher, never ahead

30
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,760
Speaker 1: of him. Kobe Bryant, Oh okay, really good one. I

31
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: kind of like having the Kobe one. I'm ripping on

32
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,360
Speaker 1: this whole thing. I'm like, oh, it's pretty cool. The

33
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 1: musicians on the list that will be in the Garden

34
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 1: of American Heroes. I don't know why we need statues

35
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: for musicians in the Capital be spending a bunch of

36
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: money on this, but that's what we do here. Confusing

37
00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: Johnny Cash, Miles Davis Franklin, Ray, Charles, Elvis, Whitney, Houston.

38
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 1: I mean they're all great people. I mean, like, how

39
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,399
Speaker 1: much are we spending on these? And like, um, why

40
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: though this is Trump's idea, Yeah, it's so weird, it's

41
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,240
Speaker 1: I mean, but presidents do this all the time. Why

42
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 1: do you need to build a statue park? Anyway? Interestingly,

43
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: the list of the statues that are supposed to be erected,

44
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: are you going to do it every time? What? Yes,

45
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,799
Speaker 1: I am Some other people on the list of the

46
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 1: two hundred and fifty people that are supposed to be

47
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 1: half statues made of them in this Garden of Heroes

48
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: aren't even an American. Oh my god, there's Alex Trebek,

49
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:42,760
Speaker 1: who was Canadian. Yeah, director Alfred Hitchcock's British great guy,

50
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 1: Swedish actress Ingrid Bergmann, and Albert Einstein. Why do we

51
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:50,079
Speaker 1: need statues of these people? I don't understand. I don't either.

52
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:51,840
Speaker 1: I mean, Albert Einstein would be the only one that

53
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 1: I could consider, Like, you know, yes, that's okay if

54
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 1: he was American. Yeah, but he just did a lot

55
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,440
Speaker 1: for the world. Yeah, I mean, I get having him,

56
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:02,040
Speaker 1: but also the Garden of American heroes probably should be American.

57
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:04,960
Speaker 1: Albert Einsteina makes sense to have a statue to honor him.

58
00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: He did a lot for civilization. How about statues of

59
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: all our past presidents. I don't know, Yeah, that would

60
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: be much more logical. It would make much more sense

61
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: for those to be in the Garden of American Heroes

62
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 1: rather than Elvis. In the executive order that Trump signed

63
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 1: before he left the office, he said that national Garden

64
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,079
Speaker 1: is a response to the removal of monuments celebrating confederal

65
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: generals and Christopher Columbus over the summer. So they took

66
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 1: all you know, those are ripped down, yea, And so

67
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:31,200
Speaker 1: I guess he's just fine. You want to take down

68
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: the Confederate generals. Well, here's a statue of Homer Simpson. Okay,

69
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: here's a question for you guys. If you could have

70
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 1: a statue erected of you, what would your pose be,

71
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 1: Because that's very important. If you're making a statue English Ivan,

72
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: what would your pose be if you could have a

73
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,680
Speaker 1: statue made of you. I would want to honor the

74
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: statues of like ancient Rome. You know how they're naked.

75
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,920
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I would be naked, and I'd give

76
00:03:56,960 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 1: myself a massive member. Oh yeah, a fig leaf that

77
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: didn't quite fit over it. I'm like a typical man,

78
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 1: all right, Alex, to know who do you want to do?

79
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 1: What would your post? My post would be, I mean

80
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,400
Speaker 1: somewhere I'd be naked, but i'd beg you in the

81
00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 1: Happy Baby Yoga posset. Hey, oh my god, that'd be

82
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 1: I mean a statue I'd visit for sure. If you

83
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 1: guys don't know what the Happy Baby Yoga post looks like?

84
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:28,800
Speaker 1: Like a coin fountain too, That's an amazing statue. I

85
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:33,320
Speaker 1: would definitely love that. So if they made a statue

86
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 1: of you double, what would you be doing myself? I

87
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: think we know why we don't have statues of us anywhere. Now,

88
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 1: no one's coming to visit you will, all right? Text

89
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 1: in four to six one. If you could have a

90
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: statue made of yourself, what would your post be
