Yes, and then special guests. 30 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,440 Speaker 4: Would you rather have Pete Rose show up outside your 31 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 4: house at night or the Menendez brothers. 32 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 3: I was always a Pete Rose should be in the 33 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame guy. Always, yeah, always, always have a 34 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:07,800 Speaker 3: little plaque explained in the gambling. It's stupid to have 35 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: a Hall of Fame that says this is where the 36 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 3: best baseball players are, but not the guy who is 37 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,680 Speaker 3: actually the best at like the main thing of the game, 38 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 3: hitting it so hitting the ball. So but we don't 39 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,880 Speaker 3: have him in here because the complicated. 40 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: That's just dumb. 41 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I understand the reasoning. I just I don't end 42 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:23,280 Speaker 4: up at the same place. 43 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 3: And they do think it's different than the like if 44 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: you don't have Barry Bonds in the Hall of Fame, 45 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 3: because then his records were affected by what he did, 46 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 3: but Pete Rose's records. 47 00:02:34,400 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: Were not affected by what he did. Uh, that's a 48 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 2: good point. 49 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, the induction ceremony would have been a little weird, 50 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 4: you know, having been banned for life for gambling. 51 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, poor guy. I wish Pete would have gotten 52 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 3: that before he died. 53 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,919 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, he was. He was an incredibly flawed 54 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 4: human being. He had a screw loose. He's like a 55 00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 4: lot of the best athletes of all time in their sports, 56 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 4: there are only half wame. 57 00:02:57,840 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 2: He was a gambler. 58 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: He was not a pedophile, he wasn't a wife beat her. 59 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 3: I mean we put up with so much in wait, no, no, no, See, 60 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 3: this is where your non sports. 61 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 4: Status is showing itself. Even though you're a sports fan. 62 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:15,440 Speaker 4: You can't gamble on your sport that that would ruin 63 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 4: it for all the time. 64 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:19,520 Speaker 2: I completely get that. I have one hundred percent get that. 65 00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:25,519 Speaker 3: But but having me hatred for him, Like I mean, 66 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,040 Speaker 3: we put up with so much with athletes in sports 67 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 3: that do horrible, horrible things. Now, I'll go out to 68 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 3: eat with a gambler any night. I will not go 69 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,760 Speaker 3: out to eat with the guy who beats up his girlfriends. 70 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 4: Now, you're missing the point completely. You can you can 71 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,320 Speaker 4: have half the league beat up their girlfriend and that 72 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 4: would be horrifying, but it wouldn't affect the games. 73 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 3: I think you're missing my point completely. You said it'd 74 00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:50,800 Speaker 3: be an uncomfortable Hall of Fame ceremony. I think everybody 75 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 3: would have stood in chair because I liked the guy 76 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 3: and he was a great hitter, and you shouldn't gamble, 77 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 3: and you gotta be kicked out of the sport for that. 78 00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 3: I get it. But in terms of like it be 79 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 3: young comfortable to be around him, no way. 80 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 2: Not uncomfortable at all. I give up write your. 81 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 3: Emails now, somebody who cheats in the sport that affects 82 00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 3: the actual playing, like Barry Bonds did. 83 00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 2: What what the heck is that you can't have him 84 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 2: in the Hall of It? 85 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 4: Is he in the least gambling is so bad because 86 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 4: that inevitably leads to that it is a fatal illness? 87 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:26,920 Speaker 3: Well, clearly I won. Because he is now in the 88 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame and been reinstated in baseball. I say 89 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,479 Speaker 3: dig up his bones and reban them.

To make sure it was true. 119 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 3: David Ignatius of the Washington Post, the big foreign policy correspondent, 120 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 3: said yesterday on MSNBC, of course it's got no coverage 121 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 3: because they hated it so much. Trump is definitely in 122 00:05:57,960 --> 00:06:00,640 Speaker 3: the discussion for Nobel Peace Prize with what he's doing 123 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 3: in the Middle East, right. 124 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: To the horror of the MSNBC crowd. Apparently wow, wow, 125 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,240 Speaker 2: Well they're dopes. 126 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, And and interestingly enough, I've been pawing through email 127 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 4: to get mail bag ready and just the show in general. 128 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,280 Speaker 4: And uh, there are a couple of really interesting theories, 129 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:25,720 Speaker 4: kind of frameworks that folks suggested to use to look 130 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 4: at the frenetic and somewhat chaotic activity of Trump two 131 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,640 Speaker 4: so far, some. 132 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,720 Speaker 2: Very critical, some very positive. 133 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 4: And I think it's useful and interesting because the way 134 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 4: he conducts, you know, the duties of the office are 135 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 4: very very different, is very very different than what we've 136 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 4: seen before. And some of it is off putting, but 137 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,560 Speaker 4: then you come around and you see, ah, now I 138 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 4: see what he's doing. 139 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: Some of it might just be off putting, but we 140 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:58,720 Speaker 2: will discuss. 141 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,840 Speaker 3: So he gave a speech just like forty five minutes long, 142 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 3: and I read one segment of it and thought, wow, 143 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 3: how have an I had already heard this today because 144 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 3: he gave the speech in the morning and I hadn't 145 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: heard much about the speech throughout the day. Then I 146 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 3: was reading my favorite political newsletter from Mark Alperrin today saying, 147 00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 3: this is one of the most extraordinary foreign policy speeches 148 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: any president is given in a half a century, and 149 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 3: it got zero news coverage. So we'll read a little 150 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 3: bit from that later. I mean as a complete redoing 151 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 3: of US foreign policy in the way that we will 152 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,520 Speaker 3: look at the world and very critical at previous administrations, 153 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 3: particularly Republican administrations. So you'd think from that standpoint it 154 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 3: would get a lot of coverage. But I don't think 155 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:49,520 Speaker 3: the media takes Trump seriously at all with any of 156 00:07:49,600 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 3: his policy stuff. 157 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 4: Right, Both the positive stuff and the negative stuff are 158 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 4: so personality based. You forget he's conducting the duties of 159 00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 4: the president of the United States. 160 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 2: To be present for another three and a half years, right. 161 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I heard a couple of specifics from 162 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 4: the speech that were interesting, but not what you're referring to. 163 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's some pretty big stuff, and I think 164 00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: a lot of you will agree with it on the whole. 165 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,840 Speaker 3: You know, we went around the world starting wars and 166 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: causing trouble. It's pretty damned interesting. So we'll get to 167 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,280 Speaker 3: that stuff a little bit later.

It's a bittersweet. So was he 197 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 2: a gambling addict? Is that what his thing was? 198 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 3: How did he was a competition addict? I think how 199 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 3: did he end up betting on baseball? Was it just 200 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 3: did he finally get to the point that the only 201 00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 3: way it could be exciting enough is if his own 202 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 3: team was involved in a bet? 203 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 2: I wonder. I don't know. 204 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,559 Speaker 3: I've just read about gambling addicts, mostly through Norm MacDonald, 205 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 3: the comedian who has lost everything he had three times 206 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,199 Speaker 3: as a gambling addict, that it's it's all about the risk. 207 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:15,320 Speaker 3: It's not even the winning, it's the risk and the 208 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,160 Speaker 3: danger is what. And I wonder if Pete Rose just 209 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 3: it got to the point where the only way I 210 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 3: could have any juice is if I was so close 211 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: to what the you know, just the ultimate wrong thing 212 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 3: to do because it's it's it's it's some sort of 213 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 3: negative energy. Yeah, you know, getting it, getting to the 214 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:36,400 Speaker 3: edge of losing everything you have. It's some sort of 215 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,160 Speaker 3: like negatives. You know, if you believe in good and evil, 216 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,360 Speaker 3: evil poll on you. Because there's no reason no, I don't. 217 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 3: I do not get a charge out of having everything 218 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 3: I've got that I've built on the edge of losing 219 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: it today. 220 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 2: That would not make me excited in a good way. 221 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm looking at the other side of the coin. 222 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:58,920 Speaker 4: It's the ultimate adrenaline rush. It's do or die. He 223 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 4: he was addicted to the feeling of do or die, 224 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,280 Speaker 4: whether it was in the batter's box or gambling. That 225 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 4: was the only thing that could get his attention. I 226 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:11,320 Speaker 4: think was the ultimate challenge. 227 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:13,839 Speaker 2: It's got to be horrible. I've known people like that that. 228 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: I mean, you've got that pull to just lay it 229 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,719 Speaker 3: out there all the time, the do or die thing. 230 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,040 Speaker 3: And the problem is, you know, if you're you have 231 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 3: to lose sometimes for it to be real. I mean, 232 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 3: it's got to be the possibility that it can go 233 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 3: the other direction. 234 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:30,319 Speaker 2: Oh sure, yeah. Yeah. 235 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 4: A good friend who in dealing with some addiction problems, 236 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 4: came to realize that his comfort zone was conflict and 237 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 4: that he was causing conflict in his life out of 238 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:42,400 Speaker 4: like habit and upbringing that sort of thing. 239 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 2: And Pete's I think. 240 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:51,280 Speaker 4: His comfort zone is it's zero and two with the 241 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 4: basis jammed, and he's in the batter's box. 242 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 3: Everybody's looking at you. It's all on you, it's all 243 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 3: on you, and he needed that after he quit playing. 244 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, I suspect, so yeah. 245 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 2: How does uh?

And uh, a couple of things on that. 373 00:18:17,440 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 3: He's going to be doing a big promotional tour. 374 00:18:21,480 --> 00:18:21,880 Speaker 2: On this. 375 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,880 Speaker 3: I'm sure we could get him on the air. I'm 376 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 3: tempted to want him to get him on the air 377 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 3: and then have a not like what's that we you 378 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 3: like lay in wait, ambush, not like it. That's what 379 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 3: I was planning on, Not like an ambush, but more 380 00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 3: of a because I don't know why. I've always liked 381 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 3: Jake Tapper. I used to he built a lot of 382 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 3: credibility with me over many many years when he used 383 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 3: to be on Imus's Show and everything like that. But 384 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:55,480 Speaker 3: this one confuses me, and so I think there's something. 385 00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 3: I think there's something going on that's more than just 386 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: you're a lib hack trying to get your guy elected. 387 00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:08,320 Speaker 2: I think I think there's some sort of more complicated. 388 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 3: We could all we can all be misled by our 389 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 3: our you know, our wishes being the father of our 390 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 3: thoughts or something that I don't know. 391 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,480 Speaker 2: The culture that surrounds us. 392 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 3: The culture that surrounds us who we hang out with, 393 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 3: or something like that where he got Jake Tapper, if 394 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 3: you believe him, actually didn't see the cognitive decline of 395 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 3: Joe Biden, and really nobody else did either, because the 396 00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,840 Speaker 3: White House did such a good job of covering it. 397 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 4: Up, which so obviously laughable if you're not picking up 398 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 4: on the sarcut right. 399 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,560 Speaker 3: So there's been a fair amount of mockery of that 400 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,680 Speaker 3: whole thing leading up to the book coming up coming 401 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 3: out next week, and I think the publisher is panicking, 402 00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 3: so they yesterday or over the weekend put out a 403 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 3: sizzle to promote the book. Maybe we'll play that later also, 404 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 3: And it's got a whole bunch of clips. Jake has 405 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 3: been playing this on his show, a whole bunch of 406 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 3: clips of Jake Tapper showing how hard he was on 407 00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 3: the Biden administration and how he did ask the tough 408 00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 3: questions and everybody's misremembering his role in this. And it's 409 00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 3: got edit after edit after edit of Jake Tapper saying 410 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 3: what about two thirds of voters who don't believe the 411 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,040 Speaker 3: president could serve another term? Or blah blah blah blah 412 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,679 Speaker 3: blah blah blah blah blah. Mark Halprin, who is my 413 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:38,320 Speaker 3: favorite part political journalist, was incensed by that sizzlereel that 414 00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,239 Speaker 3: could got put out over the weekend, and he and 415 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 3: his team yesterday took it upon themselves. 416 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 2: And I don't know how much time this took. 417 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,679 Speaker 3: They went back through every single clip and did a 418 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 3: longer version of it in context to show how incredibly 419 00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 3: softly Jake, if at all Jake Tapper was pushing back 420 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 3: in any of these inuations. Why editing fest. Yeah, it's 421 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:11,199 Speaker 3: like a half hour rebuttal to that, in which in 422 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:18,280 Speaker 3: uh Mark Hauprin's angle is not to boost Trump. His 423 00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 3: concern is, as I think a legitimate honest journalist, his 424 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 3: concern is he says, Trump's doing all kinds of things 425 00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:27,360 Speaker 3: right now that I think should be scrutinized heavily by 426 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:32,399 Speaker 3: the media. But the media has no halft anymore because 427 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 3: nobody believed them because they lied about all that stuff 428 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 3: under Biden, so they couldn't They didn't hold Biden accountable, 429 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 3: and now they can't hold Trump accountable. And we don't 430 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:43,919 Speaker 3: have a press that can hold any president accountable anymore. 431 00:21:43,920 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: And that is a problem. 432 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,240 Speaker 4: And let's not forget that the whole just ludicrous Biden 433 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:53,119 Speaker 4: is sharp thing followed directly on the heels of the 434 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:57,160 Speaker 4: Russian collusion hoax. And so the impression formed in the 435 00:21:57,200 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 4: center and right that the press would print anything leaked 436 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 4: to them by Adam Schiff, no matter how many times 437 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:08,040 Speaker 4: Shift clearly lied and so they were utterly undependable as 438 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:11,719 Speaker 4: arbiters of truth, was then just completely reinforced by the 439 00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 4: Biden stuff. 440 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, We're. 441 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 4: At the therapist because you had an affair, and then 442 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 4: I go out and realize you're having sex with the 443 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,760 Speaker 4: therapist while I'm in the bathroom. 444 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:25,760 Speaker 2: I mean, we're done here. 445 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 3: So, like I said earlier, I don't think Mark Alprin 446 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 3: and Jake Tapper are ever going to be friends after this. 447 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 3: I mean, because it was a pretty brutal takedown of 448 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 3: all of Jake Tapper's soft pushbacks. 449 00:22:39,240 --> 00:22:40,640 Speaker 2: But this is from yesterday. 450 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 3: Jake Tapper's already started making the rounds in friendly media 451 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 3: talking about the book and how he tried to hold 452 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 3: the Biden White House accountable out accountable, but they were 453 00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 3: just too good at lying and that sort of thing. 454 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 3: This is from Mark Alpern's show last night. We'll just 455 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: play a little bit of it. 456 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 8: So Jake Tapper his book coming out in a week. 457 00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 8: Here he is this more warning on CNN, creating a 458 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 8: whole new set of realities. 459 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:04,640 Speaker 2: Watch this. 460 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 9: You have an entire White House press corps though, following 461 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,399 Speaker 9: him around, and I'm just curious as to whether or 462 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 9: not this kind of trying to hide what was happening 463 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 9: with the President at the time had an impact on 464 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 9: the press corps, Like why didn't we hear some of 465 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 9: these details from what they actually saw and were dealing 466 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:25,480 Speaker 9: with trying to get information. 467 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 10: Well, Alex Thompson and I were on the case, as 468 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 10: were lots of other reporters trying to figure out what 469 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 10: was going on behind the scenes. But the bottom line 470 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,959 Speaker 10: is the White House was lying not only to the press, 471 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 10: not only to the public, but they were lying to 472 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 10: members of their own cabinet. They were lying to White 473 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 10: House staffers, they were lying to Democratic members of Congress, 474 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 10: to donors about how. 475 00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:49,880 Speaker 2: Bad things had gotten. 476 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 10: And in fact, Alex and I started writing this book 477 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 10: after the election of twenty twenty four, and we spoke 478 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,000 Speaker 10: with more than two hundred people, most of whom, almost 479 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 10: all of whom were Democrats, and almost all of whom 480 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,919 Speaker 10: wouldn't be honest with us or wouldn't be candid with 481 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 10: us until after the election. And then after the election 482 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 10: we found out all of these things that when you 483 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,680 Speaker 10: looked at what was going on with President Biden at 484 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 10: the time, it probably doesn't surprise you. 485 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 2: The extent to which he was deteriorating. 486 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 10: But now we have anecdotes and facts about what was 487 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 10: really going on behind the scenes, with details that Democrats 488 00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 10: wouldn't share with us until after election day. 489 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 8: All right, again, amazing true. Here's something true that he 490 00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,840 Speaker 8: said that Jake Capper said on CNN this morning. True 491 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,160 Speaker 8: that there was a cover up, that senior Biden officials 492 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,959 Speaker 8: worked very hard to cover up as much as they 493 00:24:40,000 --> 00:24:43,560 Speaker 8: could his decline, including amongst other people in the government 494 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 8: and in the campaign. 495 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 2: That's true. 496 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,239 Speaker 8: Here's two things that are not true, okay, And this 497 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,399 Speaker 8: is where the credibility is this so important that people 498 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 8: be honest. 499 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:53,160 Speaker 2: I shouldn't be the. 500 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 8: Only one in the media being honest about this.

Once I took some viagra. 671 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 4: Oh dear god, no, I thought, And I'm trying to 672 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,040 Speaker 4: decide how much of this. 673 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:17,400 Speaker 2: To re's hemet. 674 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 4: He tried to tattoo one hundred percent Irish beef on 675 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 4: his unit. 676 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:27,439 Speaker 2: This is great. 677 00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,280 Speaker 4: This is my favorite part, ton San diegoids. I nodded 678 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,719 Speaker 4: slightly in a way that I hope would communicate that 679 00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 4: I knew what his wang was, but not that I 680 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 4: wanted to know anything more about this. But it hurts 681 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,799 Speaker 4: so bad, he went on. I only got to one 682 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 4: hundred percent Irish before I had to stop. Mercifully, my 683 00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:51,040 Speaker 4: burrito arrived soon after. I wonder if you ever completed 684 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 4: his masterpiece. 685 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 2: Tattooing yourself under your tongue. I'm trying to figure out 686 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:58,200 Speaker 2: how you would how would you see? You'd have to 687 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:01,239 Speaker 2: have a series of mirrors. Ah. 688 00:35:01,280 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 4: Oh, I'm terrible at that too, looking at myself in 689 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,160 Speaker 4: a mirror and realizing, okay, I need to move the 690 00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:07,960 Speaker 4: clipper a little closer to my ear, and then I 691 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 4: move it away. 692 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 2: It's just I'm. 693 00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 4: Helpless, absolutely helpless. Let's see, we don't have a lot 694 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,919 Speaker 4: of time, do you. How about this great interesting thought 695 00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 4: from JT and livermore about AI and he takes into 696 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,200 Speaker 4: consideration that in the past, labor saving just meant we 697 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 4: were more productive and kept working the same amount because 698 00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 4: we had the ability to become more wealthy. But he 699 00:35:29,239 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 4: says many human jobs can be replaced by specialized machines. 700 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 2: But many can't yet. 701 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 4: But as soon as human form robots are smart enough 702 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 4: and cheaper than human workers will absolutely be a sea 703 00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 4: change to our whole way of life.

Whole new levels of 709 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:58,919 Speaker 4: production become profitable that weren't profitable using human labor. Ah, 710 00:36:00,320 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 4: it'll get cheaper and cheaper and more and more effective 711 00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 4: like big screen TVs. That is, when the true dystopia arrives. 712 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:09,440 Speaker 4: We will become a planet of human volunteers and hobbyists 713 00:36:09,680 --> 00:36:12,280 Speaker 4: because none of our actual value add to the production 714 00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:14,080 Speaker 4: process will have any value. 715 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:15,319 Speaker 2: Boy, you're right. 716 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:18,160 Speaker 3: You combine AI with the robot technology we see on 717 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 3: all the videos, and that will be a sea. 718 00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 2: Change for the planet, no doubt about it.
