1
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio of the

2
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:10,959
Speaker 1: George Washington Broadcast Center. Jack Armstrong and show Getty Armstrong

3
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: and Jetty and he Armstrong and Yetty. We got this text.

4
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 1: I'm one hundred and fifty pounds and I eat six

5
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: prunes with my breakfast cereal every morning. Yeah, clearly I'm

6
00:00:29,640 --> 00:00:32,240
Speaker 1: not enough. I started at one. I've upped at one

7
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 1: per day to try to get to where I want

8
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 1: to be. I'll leave it unsaid, and I'm going to

9
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:40,440
Speaker 1: get three yesterday no results, So I'll go to four today.

10
00:00:40,479 --> 00:00:42,520
Speaker 1: But I'm way one ninety, so it's probably gonna require

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 1: more than that. Yeah.

12
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 2: I'm not an expert in prunes and their curative powers,

13
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: but yeah, one seems like a paltry dosage.

14
00:00:51,520 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 1: They are so disgusting. No wonder they get mocked in sitcoms.

15
00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: My Whole life Crazy tried prune juice? Would that work

16
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 1: the same? Well, yes, it works. I don't know if

17
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,039
Speaker 1: it works as well.

18
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,000
Speaker 2: I just know when I was afflicted with a similar

19
00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 2: situation post surgery because of the damned drugs. Yeah, they

20
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 2: had me swinging down prune juice and eating prunes, and yeah,

21
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:20,720
Speaker 2: because they are kind of gross. Yeah, apples an alternative.

22
00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 2: Could you eat two three apples a day? Yeah, easily

23
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,440
Speaker 2: as well. Prunes They just they they they seem like

24
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:30,679
Speaker 2: one of those Depression era of foods, like one of

25
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 2: those things people ate when they were so poor you

26
00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 2: just needed food.

27
00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: There were no apples exactly.

28
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:39,000
Speaker 2: It's like pig's eyes. No, I don't want to eat

29
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 2: any I've got. It's like behind end to juice from

30
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:46,360
Speaker 2: that was back when people were starving. Right, I tell

31
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 2: you what you eat A couple apples and a bowlful

32
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 2: of raisins.

33
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: Every day place, please, I'm telling you that's right.

34
00:01:56,280 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 2: So earlier in the show were discussing the case of

35
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 2: the so called Phillies game Karen, the aggressive lunatic woman

36
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 2: who screeched at a dad because he had grabbed a

37
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 2: home run ball that she wanted and given it to

38
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 2: his son, And then when she yelled at him for

39
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 2: a minute or two, he, in a cowardly and man

40
00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 2: card losing fashion, handed the ball over to the lunatic

41
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 2: and disappointed his lad who will probably need counseling for

42
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 2: the rest of his life.

43
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 1: Well, for anybody who hasn't seen the video, is there

44
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: any did she did the woman, the crazy woman, have

45
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,239
Speaker 1: any claim to this baseball?

46
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 2: So they're scrambling for a home run ball, as people

47
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:47,440
Speaker 2: do every single stinking home run since three fingers McGhee

48
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:50,720
Speaker 2: was playing in the dead ball era, and he got

49
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: it and she didn't and declared that because it was

50
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: near her it was rightfully her ball, and screeched at

51
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:01,359
Speaker 2: him until he gave it to her in a disgustingly

52
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 2: cowardly fashion. I may have suggested earlier in the show

53
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:06,880
Speaker 2: that the little boy should go to a baseball game

54
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 2: with a real man.

55
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 1: And dad can attend a fashion show. Well did you also?

56
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: Did you mention Marius about the mystery of who actually

57
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,960
Speaker 2: impregnated the boy's mother, because surely it wasn't that limprist.

58
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:24,959
Speaker 2: So perhaps I've been too harsh.

59
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: Perhaps did we mention this time that it was the

60
00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:29,920
Speaker 1: kid's birthday too. It's a kid's birthday. Dad gets a

61
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: home run ball, gives his this ball on his birthday,

62
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:34,120
Speaker 1: and they've.

63
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: Never gotten a ball at a ball game before. It

64
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 2: was the first. It was the miracle.

65
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: Crazy woman comes yells at him. He recoils with his

66
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: hands shaking from this woman yelling at him like a

67
00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 1: sitcom character and just says, all right, take the ball,

68
00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: leave us long. God, I don't know, I'd have to

69
00:03:50,200 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 1: move to a different country and change my name. I

70
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,240
Speaker 1: feel like if this was me and that was a

71
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,280
Speaker 1: viral video.

72
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 2: We played some cliffs of Fox News Bill Malugin talking

73
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,240
Speaker 2: to the guy earlier, in which Mallugiin was very, very

74
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:04,320
Speaker 2: gentle and understanding and granted this guy was not the

75
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: bad guy who initiated the ugliness. I just don't appreciate

76
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:11,120
Speaker 2: his response, but I'm curious how CBS News approached it.

77
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 1: We'll start with the first clip there.

78
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,040
Speaker 3: Michael Blincoln Feltwell has been a Philadelphia Phillies super fan

79
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:19,880
Speaker 3: since he was bored. He's celebrating an unforgettable tenth birthday

80
00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 3: for all the.

81
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: Right and wrong reasons. Sometimes you need that resimple.

82
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 3: Vader just on it's Friday night watching in the stance,

83
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 3: his now favorite player on his favorite teams had just

84
00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 3: hit a hole and Andrew, his dad got that baseball.

85
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 4: When I put that ball on his glove, I felt

86
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 4: like I accomplished something great.

87
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 3: The magic lasted just a few seconds. A woman started

88
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 3: berating Feltwell cleaning the ball was hurt.

89
00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 4: Just screaming in my face, like vulgar curse words in

90
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 4: front of my kids. So I just decided to give

91
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 4: her the ball and get it over with.

92
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 1: She's a lunatic. So not only was his birthday his

93
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:06,920
Speaker 1: favorite player on his favorite team, Wow, Well.

94
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 2: And in the you know, I'll just let him speak

95
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,480
Speaker 2: for himself. Let's skip to thirty four Michael, then we'll

96
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: go back to the clips in order.

97
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 5: Yeah, you ultimately decided to give her that ball back.

98
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:19,920
Speaker 5: And I've been reading some of the interviews you've done.

99
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 5: You want to, you know, teach your son a lesson

100
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,080
Speaker 5: on de escalation, which I think is a great lesson

101
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:26,640
Speaker 5: to teach these days. Do you have any regrets about

102
00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 5: giving it back to word though, No, I think the

103
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 5: world could use a little extra de escalation.

104
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:40,320
Speaker 4: Everything so tense. The world is pretty crazy, and I

105
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 4: didn't want to do anything like that in front of

106
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 4: my son or on camera. It was tough giving the

107
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 4: ball back, but it ended that situation.

108
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, go ahead, that's enough. So yanking the ball

109
00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,200
Speaker 2: out of your kids, mit and giving it to the bully,

110
00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 2: That's how you're going to make the world a better

111
00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:01,600
Speaker 2: place ethic, And it.

112
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 1: Did end it, Yes, if the bully says, give me

113
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,240
Speaker 1: your lunch money and you give it to him, it

114
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 1: does end it. You're right until the next time, obviously.

115
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, let's let's get back to CBS because

116
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 2: it takes a nice turn.

117
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 3: It's what happened next that made a bad situation beautiful Lincoln.

118
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 3: Lincoln and his dad were invited to meet Harrison Bader,

119
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 3: who sunning.

120
00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 1: The bat for him. What was it like for you

121
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 1: to get the bat? It was really really cool, just

122
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: even me and him. And then the final flip, Michael.

123
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 4: I kind of refuse to take any involvement in bashing her.

124
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 4: The internet is taking care of that situation by itself.

125
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,279
Speaker 4: I don't want to be that person in front of

126
00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:40,719
Speaker 4: my kids.

127
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:50,080
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. Yeah, that's an interesting thing. Uh. Like

128
00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: I've said, I could see if I was by myself,

129
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: because I don't really give a crap if I got

130
00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,160
Speaker 1: a baseball or not. If I'm by myself, Hey, cool,

131
00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: I got a ball and this crazy idiot comes over

132
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:01,400
Speaker 1: and just keeps screaming. I hear go. I might do that,

133
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 1: but setting an example for my son, No way I

134
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 1: would be rolling around on the steps with her in

135
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 1: a fight before I'm gonna give her the ball back

136
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: just because she says I should.

137
00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 2: What hell, I rarely go to a game. I don't

138
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: end up in a fight with a middle aged woman

139
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 2: and he's nothing to me. Yeah, I know, And you

140
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:29,360
Speaker 2: know you could argue I'm trying to. I always like to,

141
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 2: you know, test my arguments. If I were gonna argue

142
00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 2: against me, I would say Jesus probably would have told

143
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 2: him give her the ball. Then doctor Keith, who is

144
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 2: that what Jesus said? And docs her on the internet exactly,

145
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: call her employer no, and trust in.

146
00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: The Lord.

147
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,560
Speaker 2: And then the result of all this is the kid

148
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:03,440
Speaker 2: gets to meet his favorite player, he gets the bat.

149
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 2: There's some company that's given the boy in Camping World

150
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,960
Speaker 2: Impressed Dad. Camping Worlds has given the boy in his

151
00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: quasi Dad World series tickets.

152
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: So you could make the argument, oh jeez, that that

153
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 1: I don't know.

154
00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,840
Speaker 2: I feel like drop us a note mail bag at

155
00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,920
Speaker 2: Armstrong in giddy dot com. You will be the jury,

156
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 2: or if you'd like to text, that's more your speed

157
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 2: four one, five, two nine five KFTC.

158
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 1: I feel like you saying who actually impregnated your wife?

159
00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 1: Because it couldn't have been you is too far? That

160
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 1: was too far. I'll reconsider my words. Uh so the

161
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:52,760
Speaker 1: internet has gone after her though, like the ruin in

162
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: her life, which good. She's a bad person or she's

163
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 1: probably nuts, but.

164
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably nuts and utterly unf familiar with the dynamics

165
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,200
Speaker 2: of when a ball is in the stands well, the

166
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,319
Speaker 2: first person to get a firm grasp.

167
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 1: On it owns it. Until then it's anybody's ball. Well,

168
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,440
Speaker 1: and that aside. Again, I'm by myself. I might give

169
00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 1: the ball, probably would to the ten year old on

170
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 1: his birthday, because I'm a grown up. I don't need

171
00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: a ball.

172
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, actually, that's that's always my plan. I'm gonna

173
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 2: find some cute little kid near me and give them ball.

174
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 1: God, that's weak. So she's there yelling at dad in

175
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: front of his kids. I mean, she's a lunatic, a

176
00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 1: complete lune, which I guess is part of his argument.

177
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 1: She is demonstrating that she's a loon. So I was

178
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,120
Speaker 1: just trying to get it to go away. I would

179
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 1: not have done what he did. But all right, again,

180
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna test my argument.

181
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 2: If she had the eyes of the maniac, and it

182
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 2: would have been an ugly situation where dad is forced

183
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,280
Speaker 2: to put a woman's lights out to protect himself and

184
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:56,840
Speaker 2: his son.

185
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,440
Speaker 1: Would that be traumatizing enough for the boy? Hmmm? Now,

186
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: I couldn't have made myself. I couldn't have made myself

187
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: give the ball back in front of my son. I

188
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 1: just couldn't have It's too emasculating. Take it out of

189
00:10:09,280 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 1: his mint, wow, and give it back to her. Wow. Again.

190
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 1: We're gonna need your man card, Philly Karen. Sorry, she

191
00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: might actually have to change your name all, but it's

192
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:21,920
Speaker 1: been pretty rough for her.

193
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120
Speaker 2: I assume people have figured out who yes, yes, because

194
00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 2: they've gone after employer and friends of it at all.

195
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:36,920
Speaker 1: Yeah. The world is so crazy right now and we'll

196
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: be forever. Oh good thing, checking out, goodbye. If you

197
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,440
Speaker 1: ever end up in one of these situations, you just

198
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 1: gotta like go stay at a holiday inn under an

199
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: assumed name for forty eight hours, maybe seventy two in

200
00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,040
Speaker 1: rare cases, and then it'll be over and nobody will

201
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:58,040
Speaker 1: ever remember it that it ever happened. You just got

202
00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 1: to weather that couple of days of this is our

203
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,120
Speaker 1: entertainment for the next few days. You just gotta get

204
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: past that till Trump does something or Israel bomb something

205
00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: or whatever, and uh and then you're off the hook. Yeah.

206
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, check into one of those places that's a little

207
00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:14,440
Speaker 2: sweet for a week.

208
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: Be good to yourself. Hide out from the internet. Yeah,

209
00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,959
Speaker 1: check in fuel it, check in under e Presley, keep

210
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:25,200
Speaker 1: your head down and well that's.

211
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,880
Speaker 2: Another aspect of the modern era that sucks. You can't

212
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,520
Speaker 2: check in under a funny assumed name anymore. I know,

213
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: unless you're a celeb. Then they'll do it as a

214
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,959
Speaker 2: courtesy for you. But you gotta show them your ID

215
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 2: because you might be what Osama bin Laden or something.

216
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,760
Speaker 2: What is it with hotels? How do you care who

217
00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,079
Speaker 2: I am? I'm gonna sleep here, I'm gonna leave you

218
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:47,480
Speaker 2: got my credit card number.

219
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 1: By the way, we will tease this or what are

220
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,040
Speaker 1: one more thing? Podcast is going to be interesting today?

221
00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 1: Will tell you about that among other things. On the

222
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 1: way stay here.

223
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 6: Actor Charlie Sheen has set to release his new memoir,

224
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,559
Speaker 6: though there's a good chance that what you already know

225
00:12:09,800 --> 00:12:12,479
Speaker 6: about Charlie Sheen is more than he remembers.

226
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, Charlie Sheen wrote a memoir And there's a Netflix

227
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:23,520
Speaker 1: special documentary interview thingy. We've got some clips from an

228
00:12:23,520 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 1: interview he did with Good Morning America that we'll use

229
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 1: in the One More Thing podcast that I thought was

230
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 1: actually kind of interesting about how his dad intervened and

231
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,959
Speaker 1: how off the rails he was, and EA sne pretty

232
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 1: off the rails. I thought, I distinctly remember a Friday

233
00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,599
Speaker 1: where I predicted Charlie Sheen will be dead when we

234
00:12:42,679 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: come back on Monday, because I thought that's what was

235
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 1: gonna happen. If you don't remember that whole crazy period

236
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: CBS pull out about Trump's tariffs. It's all about how

237
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,559
Speaker 1: you ask the question. I don't know exactly how they

238
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: worded the question, but I don't think it's probably far

239
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 1: off of this sixty one percent of people oppose new tariffs.

240
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: Of course, if you barely pay attention to you ha

241
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 1: to take in through mainstream media, it's all negative reporting,

242
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,080
Speaker 1: So how would you come to any other conclusion. Seventy

243
00:13:12,120 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 1: one percent say tariffs increase prices. That's because they do,

244
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 1: and about two thirds say Trump's policy is increasing US

245
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:27,440
Speaker 1: grocery prices. That's two thirds. Overall. It's only thirty one

246
00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 1: percent of Republicans that say that, although that's a fairly

247
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: high number given the fact that he has a about

248
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: a ninety percent approval riting among Republicans. It'll be one

249
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:45,079
Speaker 1: little indication, maybe today when Apple has their big always

250
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,040
Speaker 1: in September unveiling of new products, the new iPhone seventeen.

251
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: If there's a big jumpin price because of tariffs, that

252
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:54,200
Speaker 1: will be the new story out of the Apple thing.

253
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: That will that will obliterate anything about the new camera

254
00:13:57,720 --> 00:14:00,240
Speaker 1: or anything on the iPhone, if it's all about look

255
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,800
Speaker 1: what the tariffs did to the cost of an iPhone.

256
00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:06,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, groceries is interesting. I would think most of that

257
00:14:06,480 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 2: would be indirect costs rising, although I guess we import

258
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,960
Speaker 2: the fair amount of produce from Mexico. But I think

259
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 2: it'll show itself in consumer goods more than groceries.

260
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: But I'd rather sick.

261
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:26,040
Speaker 2: I've continued to predict that we will really feel this

262
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,360
Speaker 2: in October and November.

263
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 1: Whatever is going to happen. It's right before Christmas.

264
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,320
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, well, and the soups are going to take

265
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,200
Speaker 2: a look at it too. Amy Coney Barrett's making the

266
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: rounds these days, but she didn't even as I recall,

267
00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:46,240
Speaker 2: she's not even sure it's on the schedule yet. But

268
00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 2: they'll be dealing with it at some point, speaking of

269
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 2: governments and finance and that sort of thing.

270
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:55,040
Speaker 1: I was just we talked a great deal earlier.

271
00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: About France, how the government is a parliamentary system, but

272
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,360
Speaker 2: the government has collapsed and they're kicking out yet another

273
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 2: prime minister because the guy said, look, we're spending ourselves

274
00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:09,000
Speaker 2: to death. We've got to roll back programs. We've got

275
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: to cut our or just keep our spending at the

276
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,440
Speaker 2: current level. We can't grow it anymore. We are going

277
00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 2: to go completely broke. And for that he was heaved

278
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 2: out on his.

279
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,400
Speaker 1: Ear and his speech he said, you can get rid

280
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: of me, but you can't. You can change me, but

281
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:28,600
Speaker 1: you can't change reality, which is a great parting shot. Meanwhile,

282
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:34,800
Speaker 1: in formerly socialist peronas to Argentina, where Javier and Milat

283
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: has been working such miracles by using the free market

284
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: all the people who are benefiting from the socialism, whether

285
00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: it's the fat cats or just the people who'd gotten

286
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:48,440
Speaker 1: used to the government handouts. In spite of the incredible

287
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 1: success of that, some.

288
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 2: There was a big like the off year election and

289
00:15:55,120 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: the Kirchnerist Party, that's the old socialist guys, did really

290
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 2: well in some of their provincial elections, and the market

291
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 2: has gone into a free fall. In Argentina, the Argentine

292
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 2: currency collapsed against the dollar. Investors are panicking because they

293
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 2: fear the win means a return to heavy government spending,

294
00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 2: money printing, less market friendly policies. Uh, the economy might

295
00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:30,160
Speaker 2: just plots because the economy and people who like our

296
00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:33,360
Speaker 2: free market guys see the return of the socialist guys

297
00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: as just an utter disaster. It is so hard once

298
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 2: you get people addicted to the heroine of socialism.

299
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 1: Man, well, they shake and they sweat.

300
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,720
Speaker 2: And they and they crap themselves and they puke a lot.

301
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 2: To get them off of the heroin of socialism. It's

302
00:16:52,360 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 2: amazing and troubling. Crap themselves, it happens. Maybe one less prune. Yeah,

303
00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,640
Speaker 2: don't do drugs, kids, and don't do socialism either.

304
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: But the kids slap it up.

305
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 2: When you know, Mamdani the Kami makes his lovely promises.

306
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,440
Speaker 1: They got a focus group of Trump supporters going on

307
00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: on CNN right now around the whole Epstein thing. Oh goodness,

308
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:20,400
Speaker 1: what a couple of them said, are kind of interesting.

309
00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 1: Among other things, on the way Armstrong and Getty, the

310
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:30,680
Speaker 1: internet doesn't always get it right, but sometimes it does.

311
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:35,639
Speaker 1: The karma on this Philadelphia Karen woman Woo, that is

312
00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: a heap and helping dose of internet karma. I mean,

313
00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 1: all of the mean goodness that can exist in the

314
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:47,639
Speaker 1: world is directed at that woman, and she deserves it.

315
00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: She's a horrible human being or nuts or something. She's

316
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:55,800
Speaker 1: clearly crazy. So a couple updates on a few things

317
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 1: before we get to the latest polling on Mamdani the Kami,

318
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:04,240
Speaker 1: which is soon per interesting just out like the last hour. So,

319
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:11,080
Speaker 1: Israel targeted Hamasa's senior leadership in a strike in Katar.

320
00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: In Doha, Qatar, a major modern city. They hit with

321
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:20,240
Speaker 1: missiles in a residential building where they believed they took

322
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 1: out some of the leadership of a MAAS and NETANYAHUO

323
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:27,120
Speaker 1: just put out a joint statement saying that he had

324
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: full support of the entire Israeli war cabinet. Everybody was

325
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:36,399
Speaker 1: on board with this because of not only do the

326
00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:40,040
Speaker 1: leaders of a MOSS still say yeah, we were behind

327
00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: October seventh, two years ago, and we hope to do

328
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:47,520
Speaker 1: it again. They took responsibility yesterday from that attack two

329
00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 1: days ago, and I put it. I thought that might

330
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:54,360
Speaker 1: just be a nut job on his own. But they

331
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,720
Speaker 1: took a responsibility for that and said, yeah, we're all

332
00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,000
Speaker 1: in favor and we hope there's more. And so Netanyah said, okay,

333
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: well that's enough of you. And those people who said

334
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: that might be dead now.

335
00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 2: And it became infinitely clear that the so called peace

336
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 2: process doesn't exist. Saw this headline in the New York Times,

337
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 2: ridiculous Israeli strikes targets, strike targets Moss leadership in Qatar.

338
00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 2: The e Gulf nation of Qatar has been trying to

339
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,359
Speaker 2: negotiate a ceasefire in the conflict. The attack threatens to

340
00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,280
Speaker 2: destabilize those peace efforts.

341
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,359
Speaker 1: How much? What a bunch of crap that is? Really?

342
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:32,120
Speaker 1: You know, it's most destabilizing to the effort the fact

343
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 1: that Hamas is still attacking and refusing to give back

344
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 1: it hostages. Good lord, all right, there's that story. CNN

345
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 1: just had a little focused group of hardcore Trump supporters

346
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: talking about the Epstein thing, and I just saw a

347
00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:56,639
Speaker 1: woman up there saying the biggest disappointment to her of

348
00:19:56,680 --> 00:20:00,640
Speaker 1: Trump being reelected is that that he's helping covering up

349
00:20:00,680 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 1: the Epstein thing. This gets to what you're always talking about.

350
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: They are talking about CNN and the person asking the

351
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: question are talking about a completely different Epstein story than

352
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,720
Speaker 1: that woman is that woman is talking about. I guarantee

353
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,000
Speaker 1: I don't know this, but I guarantee you she's talking

354
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: about the child trafficking sex ring that she thinks is

355
00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,160
Speaker 1: in the Epstein files and that Trump isn't releasing because

356
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:30,560
Speaker 1: it doesn't exist. CNN is asking about the Epstein files

357
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,280
Speaker 1: that are about who Epstein flew on the plane with

358
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,280
Speaker 1: and all that sort of stuff. They're talking about two different.

359
00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:39,800
Speaker 2: Things, right and some people are talking about, was Epstein

360
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:42,679
Speaker 2: the only guy who is touching underage girls?

361
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 1: Let's see the list.

362
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: It says, you know, they're like eleven different variations, but

363
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,000
Speaker 2: everybody just says the Epstein files or the Epstein thing.

364
00:20:54,240 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 1: Right now, This pulled just out on Zorn Mamdani, the

365
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 1: communist probably going to be mayor of New York City.

366
00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:12,239
Speaker 1: Thank you for pronouncing it correctly, Mandani. He continues to

367
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:17,719
Speaker 1: have a giant lead at forty six percent of New

368
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:24,160
Speaker 1: York City likely voters, almost half in second place scumbag

369
00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,640
Speaker 1: Andrew Cuomo at twenty four so roughly half the support,

370
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:31,720
Speaker 1: and then it drops way down to single digits for

371
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 1: a bunch of people you probably don't know. But you

372
00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: break it down by different demographics. Men and women fairly

373
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: evenly split. Age, not surprising. The communist has three quarters

374
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,199
Speaker 1: of the young people wow, eighteen to twenty nine, but

375
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 1: he has a third of sixty five plus. You are

376
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 1: old enough to know better, and a third of sixty

377
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 1: five plus are willing to vote for the communist. Break

378
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 1: it down by race, it's about forty some percent of white,

379
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: forty some percent of black, forty percent of Hispanic, then

380
00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 1: seventy percent of other. What do you have left after white,

381
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: Black and Hispanic, tion and whoever else? Russian? It's European.

382
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:22,840
Speaker 1: Break down by education bothers me. Thirty percent of people

383
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,439
Speaker 1: that no college degree thirty percent, that's his lowest number,

384
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:32,399
Speaker 1: sixty percent of people that went to college. Wanna you

385
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:35,600
Speaker 1: should be smart enough as a college graduate to not

386
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: vote for a communist. Of course, you had communist professors

387
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: who convince you that communism is a good idea.

388
00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,399
Speaker 2: Well, that's what college is now. It's like, you know,

389
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 2: school exists mostly to indoctrinate the kids into progressive thinking.

390
00:22:48,280 --> 00:22:51,919
Speaker 2: In colleges too, they will teach you engineering on the side.

391
00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 2: If you're in that program, and you'll probably learn a

392
00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 2: little something about whatever topic you're you know, studying, but

393
00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,400
Speaker 2: you're mostly there to be indoctrinated.

394
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 1: And you break it down by the Burroughs, because you're

395
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 1: a mayor of all of these areas. He gets thirty

396
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 1: six percent in Brooklyn, or fifty percent in Brooklyn, thirty

397
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 1: six percent in the Bronze thirty eight percent Queens, twenty

398
00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: six percent of an island. None of that matters Manhattan.

399
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 1: It's almost sixty percent. Wow. The most monumental gleaming testament

400
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:31,439
Speaker 1: to free market capitalism that exists on Earth. Really New

401
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:37,000
Speaker 1: York City, where Wall Street is located, sixty percent of

402
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: the people who live there want a communist zort run

403
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 1: Mondnie right.

404
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,399
Speaker 2: You know. For the millionth time, I'll make a reference

405
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 2: to the book The Myth of the Rational Voter, because

406
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:56,200
Speaker 2: the premise of the book is that in economic issues,

407
00:23:56,280 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 2: topics like rent control is a good one, or greedy

408
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:04,399
Speaker 2: corporations shouldn't make a profit, there wouldn't be crime if

409
00:24:04,440 --> 00:24:10,080
Speaker 2: there weren't cops, all right, But in economic discussions people

410
00:24:10,359 --> 00:24:14,359
Speaker 2: get it wrong in ways that are far beyond chance.

411
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:21,200
Speaker 2: The misperception of what rent control would do, for instance,

412
00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:25,159
Speaker 2: is much more common among the average voter than the

413
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: correct perception of what it would do. Again, in a

414
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,360
Speaker 2: way that's way beyond the numbers that are way beyond chance.

415
00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: For some reason, the average person who hasn't thought about

416
00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,679
Speaker 2: it much, hasn't studied it, hasn't been taught, gets economics

417
00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,800
Speaker 2: wrong a lot. And that's what we're seeing with Mundani

418
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:46,879
Speaker 2: when mam, dam me me Ni, Sorry, I got your

419
00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:52,359
Speaker 2: name wrong, so Ron, And it's troubling that that lie,

420
00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 2: that scam can be sold over and over again to

421
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,879
Speaker 2: each new generation and to that thirty percent of soft

422
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 2: heads who just never wise up.

423
00:24:59,680 --> 00:25:05,399
Speaker 1: In their zorn man Donie. Now, I did hear a

424
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:08,080
Speaker 1: smart person say I remember it was one of your

425
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,439
Speaker 1: smart like a David Axelrod or somebody smart Democrat who

426
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 1: understands this stuff. And he's not a Mum Danny fan.

427
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 1: But his thing was that it's kind of similar to Trump,

428
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:22,760
Speaker 1: and that, like Trump was addressing the issues people cared about,

429
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:26,399
Speaker 1: we gotta do something about the freaking border. And maybe

430
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: you thought as a Trump supporter then and now he

431
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:32,000
Speaker 1: goes too far, he says things too strong, But at

432
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,720
Speaker 1: least he does something about it that that might be

433
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 1: what's happening with Mom Donny. He's just saying the rent's

434
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:41,399
Speaker 1: too high. Nobody can afford this rent. It's too damn

435
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,639
Speaker 1: And he might not like his solutionary you think he

436
00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,240
Speaker 1: goes too far, but he's the only one that's like

437
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:50,080
Speaker 1: really saying this can't continue. Oh, I would put it

438
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 1: more strongly.

439
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 2: He's offering solutions that are exactly the opposite of the solutions.

440
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,080
Speaker 2: But I think Axelrode makes a great point. It's a

441
00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:57,720
Speaker 2: really good point.

442
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,760
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta grab people by the issues they

443
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 1: care about, and you know, convince them that you actually

444
00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:07,400
Speaker 1: care about them too.

445
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,480
Speaker 2: It reminds me of that conspiracy silence in Europe that

446
00:26:10,480 --> 00:26:13,119
Speaker 2: we've been talking about on and off, where the major

447
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,800
Speaker 2: parties literally in some cases agreed that we won't talk

448
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,760
Speaker 2: about immigration, right, let's just pretend it's not at the

449
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 2: root of these problems, and it drove people into the

450
00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 2: arms of like the AfD in Germany and Nigel Farag's

451
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: party in England and Marine La Penn and her handsome

452
00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: protege in France. If you don't address people's actual concerns, yeah,

453
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:38,920
Speaker 2: they will go elsewhere.

454
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:43,960
Speaker 1: For their solutions. It's breaking news everywhere that Cracker Barrel

455
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:50,880
Speaker 1: is not going to remodel their restaurants. Oh my god,

456
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:55,399
Speaker 1: this story, I know it well. I don't were you

457
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,240
Speaker 1: here or not. You might not have been here so

458
00:26:57,359 --> 00:27:00,760
Speaker 1: we ate at Cracker Barrel. Did you hear my crack stories?

459
00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 1: I've heard some Cracker bears. I don't think you did

460
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,640
Speaker 1: from my trip to Kansas and Iowa. Did you hear those?

461
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,399
Speaker 1: I don't know if the takeo the key takeaway. I

462
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: think I did well. First of all, that we had

463
00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: to wait so long to get in because clearly they

464
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:17,399
Speaker 1: got like eight billion dollars worth of free advertising. But

465
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,600
Speaker 1: none of the people in my group, all of us

466
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,000
Speaker 1: who had eaten a Cracker Barrel so many times, could

467
00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 1: have told you at all that there was some dude

468
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:25,719
Speaker 1: on the logo.

469
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 2: None of us, right, Yeah, it's not like he was

470
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 2: a beloved character that meant so much to our childhoods.

471
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,840
Speaker 1: None of us could have told you.

472
00:27:35,760 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 2: Oh, there's a guy removing this statue of Lincoln because

473
00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 2: he wasn't woken off right.

474
00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 1: All right, we'd all said, all said when we heard

475
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: it first. But there's a guy, I'm a logo I

476
00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:46,800
Speaker 1: don't know. I've never looked at the logo. It's just

477
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:48,399
Speaker 1: kind of a hard to even tell what it was.

478
00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:52,320
Speaker 1: Something there next to the name Cracker bear right, yeah, money,

479
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:55,680
Speaker 1: and it got turned into the you're taking called Jesse

480
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,439
Speaker 1: or Harold or whatever his name is off a logo

481
00:27:58,480 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: how dare you?

482
00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:03,560
Speaker 2: And well how it evolved is interesting, and you know,

483
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:04,960
Speaker 2: I haven't spent a lot of time on it, but

484
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:09,160
Speaker 2: the perception that it was some sort of woke, politically

485
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,960
Speaker 2: correct thing, that they were remodeling the Cracker barrels and

486
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:15,440
Speaker 2: changing the look of the restaurants and you know, the

487
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 2: logo and stuff, and I'm not sure that it was.

488
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: I'm not sure it was either. In fact, I think

489
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:21,760
Speaker 1: it wasn't.

490
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 2: But but there's something going on there that's worth thinking about.

491
00:28:26,320 --> 00:28:30,240
Speaker 2: Is it that every other damn institution has fallen, you know,

492
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 2: to the woke acts a little or a lot, and

493
00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,680
Speaker 2: people are just now a traditional, you know, patriotic Middle

494
00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 2: America America is saying no, no, some slick new woman's

495
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,520
Speaker 2: ceo is not going to change our beloved Cracker barrel.

496
00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 2: It must be more of the woke crap.

497
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:54,200
Speaker 1: My brother, with his endless jokes about how racist cracker

498
00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,520
Speaker 1: barrel is. We're playing the little triangle game. Yep, that's

499
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,240
Speaker 1: what we used to do while the slaves were in

500
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 1: the field, play this little triangle game. What because it's

501
00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: also stupid? Yes, okay, we will finish strong next time,

502
00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:13,640
Speaker 1: arm strong.

503
00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:23,600
Speaker 6: Hey, a dive team trying to solve a cold case

504
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,040
Speaker 6: about a missing couple found a whopping ninety.

505
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 1: Seven cars in the Chicago River.

506
00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're now trying to identify the ninety seven female drivers.

507
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 1: I gotta admit I kind of like the way Guttfeldt

508
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 1: bates his audience into yelling at him grown No, No,

509
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:57,040
Speaker 1: that's terrible, you d it. Wow. You know we should

510
00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: have redone the story about the nation's report card that

511
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:04,160
Speaker 1: came out today and how our seniors can't read or

512
00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 1: do math, and it's worse. It keeps getting worse, down

513
00:30:07,440 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: ten points since nineteen ninety two in terms of proficiency

514
00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:15,080
Speaker 1: for reading. I think it was, but that's just stunning.

515
00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 2: COVID accelerated the decline, but it was declining before and

516
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:20,880
Speaker 2: has continued to decline after.

517
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 1: I mean, look at the chart, and it doesn't look

518
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,520
Speaker 1: like it didn't. Wasn't that far out of where we

519
00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: were at it anyway.

520
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 2: Nope, And everybody knows why. Anybody who's paying attention knows why.

521
00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:34,160
Speaker 2: But people aren't willing to do anything about it. We

522
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,520
Speaker 2: talked about that at fair length our two of the

523
00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:40,240
Speaker 2: show is that right, Yeah, our two. If you missed it,

524
00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 2: subscribe you ought to subscribe to Armstrong and getting on demand.

525
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 2: It included a discussion of let's see where is that.

526
00:30:52,440 --> 00:30:55,080
Speaker 2: I think I may have closed the window already. Oh no,

527
00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 2: there is absolutely brilliant work done by the economist Roland

528
00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 2: Fryar literally came up with formula to turn around failing schools,

529
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:07,240
Speaker 2: implemented it, and it was stunningly successful public schools in Houston.

530
00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,760
Speaker 2: It took a lot of getting rid of administrators and

531
00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 2: teachers who were just union hacks, but it worked beautifully

532
00:31:15,680 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: and successfully, and nobody has any interest in it because

533
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: schools are now a jobs program. They're not an educational

534
00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: institution anymore. They're a jobs program.

535
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 1: I want to touch on this before we get done.

536
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 1: Trump met with some of his European counterparts yesterday to

537
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:36,680
Speaker 1: discuss the whole Russia Ukraine thing, and, according to reporting

538
00:31:36,760 --> 00:31:39,760
Speaker 1: from someone who was in the meeting and spoke on

539
00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,760
Speaker 1: condition of anonymity said that Trump is willing to exert

540
00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 1: significant actions to end the war, but expects full cooperation

541
00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:52,160
Speaker 1: from the European partners in whatever actions are taken. The

542
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 1: meeting was only two hours long. Need for collective action

543
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,440
Speaker 1: and whatever is determined on sanctions and how to manage

544
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 1: blah blah. But Trump seems to be all in as

545
00:32:01,680 --> 00:32:04,440
Speaker 1: long as you guys are doing it too, not buying oil.

546
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:06,680
Speaker 1: You're gonna have the tariffs like we are. We're all

547
00:32:06,680 --> 00:32:09,959
Speaker 1: gonna stick with this. I'm in. That's what this reporting is.

548
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,120
Speaker 1: So that is not unreasonable. No, it's not absolutely not,

549
00:32:14,280 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 1: But man, the heavy hammer of economic samption sanctions might

550
00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:23,560
Speaker 1: be coming down soon. Yeah. Yeah, he's gonna call him out.

551
00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:25,920
Speaker 1: Is messed up. He's gonna call him out if they

552
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 1: don't stick with it too and not let him slide

553
00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 1: back during when we'd put these heavy sanctions on SAT

554
00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 1: and was saying before we went in, France would be

555
00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 1: behind the back doing all kinds of stuff with a RAQ.

556
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,880
Speaker 1: You're so called friend. That's why I call him freedom Fries.

557
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,959
Speaker 1: You know that's reasonable. I uh.

558
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 2: I had a conversation the other day with a friend

559
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 2: who we were talking about a mutual friend who speaks

560
00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:56,440
Speaker 2: pretty fluent French, and he really enjoyed being in France.

561
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,560
Speaker 2: And we are talking the inevitable conversation about how Americans,

562
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 2: most of us are mono lingual and it's a shame.

563
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 2: And you know, look at the Europeans. They know multiple languages.

564
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:11,080
Speaker 2: It's because they have to. And honestly, if Euros lived

565
00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 2: in a giant, prosperous country that was surrounded by gigantic oceans,

566
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,840
Speaker 2: you know, on both sides, they wouldn't know any languages either. Now,

567
00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:22,360
Speaker 2: and you know, it's true, because it's kind of cool

568
00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 2: and fun to be able to speak multiple languages. But

569
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:29,160
Speaker 2: the upsides of the Atlantic in the Pacific keeping all

570
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:33,200
Speaker 2: those people away from us dwarf the downsides by about

571
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 2: fifty thousand to one.

572
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 1: All Right, that whole you know, multiple languages, good for you.

573
00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:41,800
Speaker 1: I mean, it's necessity, the fact that it's an immediate

574
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: sign of sophistication and intelligence.

575
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:50,120
Speaker 7: Whatever, Go away, admit me chorus to this history, Yes, prologue,

576
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:55,400
Speaker 7: like your humble patients, prey gently to hear, kindly, to

577
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:59,200
Speaker 7: judge the final thoughts of Armstrong and Getty.

578
00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,000
Speaker 1: Add some class craft there, here's your host for final thoughts,

579
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 1: Joe getting look at. A final thought from everybody on

580
00:34:06,320 --> 00:34:06,560
Speaker 1: the crew.

581
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,840
Speaker 2: To wrap up the show, Michael Angelow, our technical director,

582
00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 2: will lead the way.

583
00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:12,960
Speaker 1: Michael, what's your final thoughts? Okay, if I'm the dad

584
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,360
Speaker 1: of that kid with the baseball, I go out and

585
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: I start taking up martial arts training. I buy a

586
00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,560
Speaker 1: big truck. I uh, I fight somebody just to make

587
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,479
Speaker 1: myself look like and look like a man.

588
00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:27,280
Speaker 2: Borrow some balls from somebody. Yes, a good plan. Katie

589
00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 2: Green is off. She will be back soon, and we

590
00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:30,120
Speaker 2: can't wake Jack.

591
00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:32,880
Speaker 1: A final thought for us, I don't think Apple's announcing

592
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,880
Speaker 1: any new products today, but updates to their old products,

593
00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,319
Speaker 1: including a new lighter iPhone, because we all had been

594
00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 1: struggling to hold our iPhones in our hands well sound.

595
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 2: That was most of my back problems. The weight of

596
00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:49,720
Speaker 2: the iPhone just crank my spine out of out of shape.

597
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,839
Speaker 2: My final thought is I will be going through the

598
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 2: emails about the infamous Philly Karen Lady and the dad

599
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 2: who gave the ball up and collecting your points of view,

600
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 2: and we will share them with you tomorrow on the program.

601
00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,360
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see which way the sentiments run. I

602
00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:13,200
Speaker 1: like the memes where she's gollam with her precious baseball.

603
00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:16,279
Speaker 2: You know, I gotta tweet what the Savannah Bananas did.

604
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,560
Speaker 2: They did a skit mocking the whole thing. It is

605
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 2: laugh out loud funny. Oh that's great. I'm strong in

606

00:35:31,520 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 1: It will depress you, no kidding. See tomorrow. God bless America.
