Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Ketty, Armstrong and Getty
Speaker 1: and He Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 2: President Donald Trump is currently meeting with the leaders of
Speaker 2: the G seven all our allies about the Middle East
Speaker 2: and where things are there. Benjamin Yet not meant, the
Speaker 2: guy who is currently Prime Minister of Israel, said that
Speaker 2: Trump is a Rand's number one enemy, which.
Speaker 1: Might be true. Certainly if Trump gave.
Speaker 2: The go ahead or gives the go ahead, that could
Speaker 2: destroy Iran, and if it had been a different president,
Speaker 2: not so much.
Speaker 1: Probably, what do you think there's strategy is in making
Speaker 1: that statement. It's for somebody, I don't know that to
Speaker 1: discredit any turn toward regime change. If the US even
Speaker 1: winks in that direction, I mean, surely they're not trying.
Speaker 1: Maybe the Mullas think if they can provoke Trump into
Speaker 1: actively joining the attack. Mike Lyons our friend suggested it
Speaker 1: was almost an aside, but he said it will take
Speaker 1: B two bombers and bunker busters to really take out
Speaker 1: the four to huh nuclear enrichment site, and he expects
Speaker 1: that to happen. Is it trying to provoke Trump into
Speaker 1: doing something so the Arab world rises up a good look,
Speaker 1: it's Satan. Good luck with that.
Speaker 2: That's a poor plan, Yeah, agreed Benjamin Netanyah, who is
Speaker 2: the current Prime Minister of Israel. And he sat down
Speaker 2: with Brett Bear of Fox on a Sunday yesterday afternoon,
Speaker 2: and I said this, which I always raised both my
Speaker 2: eyebrows high up on my forehead.
Speaker 3: Do you have intel that the assassination attempts on present
Speaker 3: Trump worked directly from.
Speaker 4: Iran through proxies. Yes, through their intel. Yes, they want
Speaker 4: to kill and look is enemy number one. He's a
Speaker 4: decisive leader. He never took the path that others took
Speaker 4: to try to bargain with him in a way that
Speaker 4: is weak, giving them, giving them basically a pathway to
Speaker 4: a rich uranium, which means a pathway to the bomb,
Speaker 4: patting it with billions and billions of dollars. He took
Speaker 4: up this fake agreement and basically tore it up. He
Speaker 4: killed the cossom Suleimany he said, made it.
Speaker 1: There was the part before the beginning.
Speaker 2: There that was the important part there in that Brett
Speaker 2: Behar asked BB nettan Yahoo about Iran's attitude toward the
Speaker 2: United States and everything, and Benjamin Netanyahu listed off a
Speaker 2: bunch of things, including saying, they tried to assassinate Donald
Speaker 2: Trump twice. They've been firing, you know, aiding the hoho
Speaker 2: thi's and then Brett Baer said, you have information that
Speaker 2: Iran was behind the two assassination attempts, and then bb
Speaker 2: kind of fudged on the next part where he says
Speaker 2: they they announced that they wanted him dead. Yes, okay, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: you just listed in the list of things that they've
Speaker 2: done that they tried to kill Trump twice.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then yeah, speaking of fudging, I think I
Speaker 1: hear what you're driving at, because Brett wasn't specific about
Speaker 1: the two actual assassination attempts in his follow up question, right,
Speaker 1: but there were Iranian plots to assassinate absolutely, and I
Speaker 1: think Boebe was referring to those and didn't hate it
Speaker 1: a bit. Man, We don't have the kind that sounded
Speaker 1: like he also meant the geek on the roof and
Speaker 1: the guy crouching in the bushes, We don't know fun.
Speaker 1: I don't think he was just insinuating. I think he
Speaker 1: flat out stated it.
Speaker 2: We don't have that part of the clip, but him
Speaker 2: just saying they tried to kill Trump twice. I think
Speaker 2: he absolutely wanted that to land with people thinking that
Speaker 2: Iran was.
Speaker 1: Behind those two assassination attempts, which is just not true.
Speaker 2: So does would be another one of those examples of
Speaker 2: I'm on your side. Don't exaggerate things because it allows
Speaker 2: people on the other side to knock down everything else.
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't gild the lily, as they say, don't try
Speaker 1: to make something strong so perfect that you've ruined it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, you can say there were plots behind the
Speaker 1: scenes to kill Trump. They were absolutely involved in those.
Speaker 1: The guy on the roof, I have no idea.
Speaker 2: I thought this was very interesting to the whole We
Speaker 2: talk about this all time, although obviously I'm.
Speaker 1: Sorry Phoebe is clearly trying any way he can to
Speaker 1: whip Trump up against Iran if he can't.
Speaker 2: Sure article in Politico, this guy Matthias Dupner, who I
Speaker 2: don't know, called on the West to exercise moral clarity
Speaker 2: amid the unfolding war between Israel and Iran, saying when
Speaker 2: a society can no longer distinguish between good and evil,
Speaker 2: between victim and perpetrator, it gives up. He wrote, this
Speaker 2: dynamic is one of the great constants of human history.
Speaker 2: It's a lesson people in free societies and people intotalitarian
Speaker 2: societies who yearn to be free should keep in mind
Speaker 2: during the climatic showdown, climactic showdown between underway in the
Speaker 2: Middle East right now, blah blah blah. It's also a
Speaker 2: central front and a global contest in which the forces
Speaker 2: of tyranny and violence in recent years have been gaining
Speaker 2: ground against the forces of freedom, which too often are
Speaker 2: demoralized and divided. He's talking about the whole oppress or
Speaker 2: oppressed thing, where people in free societies jump on the
Speaker 2: side of the oppressed, no matter how evil they are,
Speaker 2: and are critical of the side of freedom for no
Speaker 2: good reason other than this weird belief that whoever's got
Speaker 2: the power must be bad and whoever's weaker must be good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he goes on, philosophy unspeakably idiotic.
Speaker 2: He goes on, and I thought this was good. Consider
Speaker 2: the regime that Israel is fighting in Iran. Women are
Speaker 2: systematically oppressed and abused, homosexuals are murdered, those who think
Speaker 2: differently are imprisoned and tortured. If the perpetrator victim reversal
Speaker 2: that has been repeatedly observed since October seventh applies even
Speaker 2: in the most obvious case here with Iran. Then this
Speaker 2: can only be interpreted to mean that we are in
Speaker 2: the process of losing the world culture war, which in
Speaker 2: reality has long since become a war of civilizations. I
Speaker 2: don't think that overstates it at all. This is a
Speaker 2: worldwide culture war, therefore a world a war of civilizations.
Speaker 2: And we're divided, and that we have, you know, college
Speaker 2: campuses full of people who think we're the bad guys,
Speaker 2: and Iran's the you'll pressed.
Speaker 1: Right, that's so nuts. Yeah, it is, It absolutely is.
Speaker 1: That's why I'm so adamant about this stuff. A it's
Speaker 1: utter stupidity and be how important it all is the
Speaker 1: whole Now we're fine, or a superpower will always be fine.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's how superpowers go away. There are
Speaker 1: evil doers of all sorts of descriptions plotting our demise
Speaker 1: and actively pursuing it as we speak, always have been,
Speaker 1: always will be the naive comfort of some of these
Speaker 1: so called woke right thinking that that if we withdraw
Speaker 1: from prosecuting the case for democracy, and I'm not talking
Speaker 1: about some sort of you know, trying to install a
Speaker 1: Jeffersonian democracy in Iraq. I'm talking about just defending the
Speaker 1: Western world, the free world. If we stop that for
Speaker 1: a minute, they think it'll lead to a peaceful, prosperous
Speaker 1: you mind your business, will mind our business. Wow? Wow, Okay.
Speaker 1: For the first time in human history.
Speaker 2: And Ran paul On I think it was Meet the
Speaker 2: Press yesterday saying this was an this is an unjust war.
Speaker 2: Preemptive or preventive wars are unjust wars, which is crazy.
Speaker 2: You're gonna let your opponent who's been vowing to kill
Speaker 2: you get the worst weapon men have ever developed.
Speaker 1: At which point you can't stop them short of a
Speaker 1: nuclear holocaust. Right, that's so crazy.
Speaker 2: I can't believe anybody so smart can have that point
Speaker 2: of view, but lots of you do.
Speaker 1: That's nuts to me. It reminds me of the horrors
Speaker 1: of in Afghanistan, are you know, marines and infantry men
Speaker 1: special forces were told, hey, you can't like preemptively attack,
Speaker 1: you gotta wait till the barrels of their guns are
Speaker 1: pointing right at you. That's your new rules of engagement. Horrifying.
Speaker 2: Before we take a break and move on to something else.
Speaker 2: Do you think Iran gets the bomb?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's interesting. I was just reading Mark Alprin's piece
Speaker 2: and he stated his reading of Trump and people who
Speaker 2: know Trump and are reporting to him behind scenes conversations
Speaker 2: is one thing Trump is adamant about. This isn't like
Speaker 2: tariffs or something like that. He's adamant about. He is
Speaker 2: not going to allow Iran to get a nuclear weapon
Speaker 2: right right, and won't budge on that. So at some
Speaker 2: point maybe we are, like you were talking about Mike
Speaker 2: Lions on our show Hour two, get the podcast Armstrong
Speaker 2: and Getting on Demand, believes we will be helping with
Speaker 2: our bunker busters take out fourdoh, that last, hopefully last nuclear.
Speaker 1: Site buried under a mountain. My favorite detail is that
Speaker 1: they have no long corridors. They're built at right angles
Speaker 1: at least to contain a blast energy. That's how cautious
Speaker 1: they are about being blasted out of existence.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I have a report on how far along that project
Speaker 2: is gone from satellite imagery, but we can get.
Speaker 1: To that a little bit later. We've got other stuff
Speaker 1: to talk about too. In the mood for a jarringly
Speaker 1: idiotic transition, now, we're next right now.
Speaker 2: Okay, let me get my feet at shoulder with Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm on the ball. You'll get ready to go to
Speaker 2: break mom the balls my feet, I'm bouncing. I'm ready
Speaker 2: to go.
Speaker 1: Good enough. Nuclear holocaust talk Jack coming up next. It's
Speaker 1: getting pricier to fly with your pet. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: oh my god.
Speaker 2: Okay, that stupidity and other stuff on the way.
Speaker 3: Welcome to La where something is always on fire. Yes,
Speaker 3: we've had a little unrest. Here's how super dangerous this
Speaker 3: situation is. Within the area where it's happening, a little
Speaker 3: curfew area a few blocks the La Opera is located.
Speaker 1: And they're still going on.
Speaker 3: Rigoletto is still playing there. So little tip if you're
Speaker 3: planning on lou where it took Seda. This is this
Speaker 3: is such a minor crisis. Mayor Best didn't even leave town.
Speaker 2: And the crowd, the LA crowd laughing at that. Uh yeah,
Speaker 2: two breaking news things. Don't have to dwell on them
Speaker 2: because Joe has other stuff. Uh Iran has just announced
Speaker 2: they're they're about to launch the biggest attack against Israel. Ever,
Speaker 2: I don't know why you'd announced that ahead of time,
Speaker 2: so I doubt it makes me skeptical. But this everybody's
Speaker 2: reporting this. Now Iran is pushing to halt the fighting
Speaker 2: and return to nuclear negotiations. They're saying, we want to
Speaker 2: go back to negotiations.
Speaker 1: That's why you would announce you're about to launch the
Speaker 1: biggest talk attack ever. Got gotcha? Yeah, yeah, we're serious.
Speaker 1: Now let's have some meetings or something. We'll bring the food,
Speaker 1: uh yeah Israel, to which Israel will say yeah, no,
Speaker 1: and we're not going to dwelve. But as I said earlier,
Speaker 1: October seventh, showed Israel the fruits of negotiating and living
Speaker 1: peacefully side by side with islamis suvado wipe them off
Speaker 1: the map. Moving along, I thought this was interesting. A
Speaker 1: plane crashed in it Oh, several stories about aviation back
Speaker 1: to back to back. A plane crashed in India, and
Speaker 1: everyone blamed the Boeing. But it's not so simple, writes
Speaker 1: Joon O. Sarah for The Free Press. Essentially, he reached
Speaker 1: out to a bunch of different aviation experts and said,
Speaker 1: is this another Boeing screw up? And he could not
Speaker 1: find a single one of them to say yes. They
Speaker 1: all said, it's a great airplane and we need to
Speaker 1: investigate because something weird happened. And they also made the
Speaker 1: point that I tell you what, once you lose your reputation,
Speaker 1: this is true for human beings too. Kids. Take it
Speaker 1: from your old uncle Joe. Reputation takes lifetime to build
Speaker 1: in a minute to destroy. Once you've lost your reputation,
Speaker 1: it is so hard to get it back. I certainly
Speaker 1: hope for Boeing that's the case that it wasn't a
Speaker 1: problem with the aircraft. It's an important American corporation. You
Speaker 1: don't think of the company.
Speaker 2: You can like clean house, get all new people, and
Speaker 2: people you know will come back fairly quickly.
Speaker 1: Not with airplanes. Just as the turnaround. It's not like,
Speaker 1: you know, Judy and I had this sushi place so
Speaker 1: you went to occasionally and just last couple of meals disappointed.
Speaker 1: They went under new management, redecorated place is great now.
Speaker 1: It's harder to turn around Boeing than a strip mall
Speaker 1: sushi place. Anyway, moving along, this got almost no attention.
Speaker 1: That happened last week Ukraine's F sixteen took down a
Speaker 1: Russian fighter jet in a historic first. An F sixteen
Speaker 1: fighter jet given a Ukraine reportedly shot down an advanced
Speaker 1: Russian plane thanks to the assistance of a Swedish reconnaissance airplane,
Speaker 1: probably down to Russian SU thirty five jet. These are
Speaker 1: the airplanes that Ukraine was begging for, and a number
Speaker 1: of folks, including people we are close to, said, now,
Speaker 1: there's no point in getting those to Ukraine. It would
Speaker 1: take a year to train the pilots. Yeah. Well here
Speaker 1: we are three and a half years later. Anyway, well done, Ukraine.
Speaker 1: It's getting harder and priceier to fly with your pet.
Speaker 1: Good make it impossible. You do not need to fly
Speaker 1: with your pet. Wow, I was going to take a
Speaker 1: much more conciliatory attitude about different people having different beliefs
Speaker 1: and relationships. No, that sort of thing, No, says Jack.
Speaker 1: Apparently it's much much more expensive. The rules are much
Speaker 1: more strictly enforced, and sometimes you read the airplane on
Speaker 1: the airplane, the airline rules online. You think okay, good
Speaker 1: to go. Then you get to the airport and they say, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: those rules are out of date. Here's what you need
Speaker 1: to do, and you haven't done it. So you and
Speaker 1: your dog get you can fly. Your dog can't turn
Speaker 1: it loose in the terminal. Is there any facts we need. Yeah,
Speaker 1: just it's more difficult and more expensive.
Speaker 2: Well, it was more difficult. Apparently there was no barrier
Speaker 2: whatsoever a couple of years.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, yeah, bah blah blah bah. Let's see the
Speaker 1: Transportation Department to banned emotional support animals in twenty twenty
Speaker 1: one after a surge of incidents barking, biting, pooping. The
Speaker 1: only animals allowed in the cabin how are service animals
Speaker 1: with proper documentation, small pets and approof carriers that fit
Speaker 1: under the seats, and they all have fine print. You
Speaker 1: better read or they will turn you and your precious
Speaker 1: pooch away and thank goodness for it. As a Lincoln file,
Speaker 1: I was somewhat excited by this. A copy of the
Speaker 1: thirteenth Amendment, like a copy at the time, A contemporary
Speaker 1: copy is going on auction. They think it could fetch
Speaker 1: eight million dollars. The eighteen sixty three Proclamation originally signed
Speaker 1: by Lincoln, issued during the Civil War and declared all
Speaker 1: all enslaved people in the Confederate States would be set
Speaker 1: free at the minimum is three million. They think he
Speaker 1: could go for eight that's pretty cool. And then they
Speaker 1: go into the history of this stuff. I wish I
Speaker 1: had a little more time. But the copy of the
Speaker 1: US Constitution sold a billionaire Ken Griffin for more than
Speaker 1: forty three million dollars in twenty twenty one, and I
Speaker 1: carry he bought it or the person who sold it.
Speaker 1: Prior to that, it was like seven million or six million.
Speaker 1: Interestingly enough, Lincoln stuff is crazy hot. Jefferson's stuff has
Speaker 1: declined in value. Has its own market, Yeah, yeah, there
Speaker 1: seems to be passion for it. Washington stuff is not
Speaker 1: on the increase. It's just a stable market.
Speaker 2: Yesterday was the anniversary of two very very big deals.
Speaker 2: We can tell you about that coming up. How much
Speaker 2: damage has Israel done to fotoh, that big underground nuclear
Speaker 2: facility that might be the thing that is going to
Speaker 2: hold up this war ending You got the latest on
Speaker 2: that also, so a bunch of stuff on the way.
Speaker 1: I hope you can stay here, armstrong and getty.
Speaker 5: As of this moment, there are no direct American strikes
Speaker 5: against Iran, and that includes critically the deep underground nuclear
Speaker 5: facilities they have under.
Speaker 1: A mountain at Ford, Oh.
Speaker 5: And you can't stop Aaron from going nuclear, which they
Speaker 5: could do within a few months, unless you hit those.
Speaker 1: Sides that's why Israel is so.
Speaker 5: Set upon getting the Americans directly involved. As of right now,
Speaker 5: President Trump has said.
Speaker 2: I want no part of that. So i'd see in
Speaker 2: Bremery is on CBS to news. Of course, the question
Speaker 2: of the day is it do you pronounce it ford
Speaker 2: oh or ford ou? I've noticed the problem. It's spelled differently.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's d o and sometimes it's DW. So if
Speaker 2: it's d O, I'm going to pronounce it fodoh. Anyway,
Speaker 2: Ian said fourd oh.
Speaker 1: I'm going to go with him.
Speaker 2: So you got two big nuclear facilities, even though there
Speaker 2: were others that were hit, but the two big ones.
Speaker 1: And this is the whole deal, right, this is the
Speaker 1: whole point of the war. Iran and the.
Speaker 2: Rest of the free world, Israel and the rest of
Speaker 2: the free world does not want the weird Beard Mullas
Speaker 2: to have a freaking nuclear weapon, once again reiterating in
Speaker 2: case you don't know, these are many, many, many, multiple
Speaker 2: times more powerful than the stuff that we dropped on
Speaker 2: Hiroshima or Nagasaki, like, not even close, not even in
Speaker 2: the same league, really, So it would be a very
Speaker 2: big deal if Iran got one of those. And Israel
Speaker 2: is vowed because it it's their survival to not let
Speaker 2: them do it.
Speaker 1: But a couple of the centers they have like underground facilities.
Speaker 1: So before we get to the Fordoh.
Speaker 2: The IAEA just came out and disputed Israel's claims that
Speaker 2: they had destroyed the Natan's nuclear site ability to continue
Speaker 2: to enricheranium. So Israel came out all over the weekend
Speaker 2: and say we've we've done that one with so much
Speaker 2: damage it's no longer functional.
Speaker 1: The I A e A says, no, that's not true.
Speaker 2: We're monitoring all kinds of uh, you know, radiation and
Speaker 2: all that sort of stuff, and from what we can
Speaker 2: tell that there would be more radiation or be marred.
Speaker 1: All kinds of different stuff.
Speaker 2: I won't bog down in the many paragraphs, but there
Speaker 2: would be more indication that you had destroyed it and
Speaker 2: you haven't gotten to the underground. You got the top
Speaker 2: part and there are electricities out and all kinds of stuff,
Speaker 2: But their ability to enrich uranium underground still exists.
Speaker 1: So that's either true it's not. If it is true,
Speaker 1: that's horrifying. I've got to admit I'm weirdly, darkly amused
Speaker 1: by the IAEA, saying, in essence, now you need to
Speaker 1: hit them some more.
Speaker 2: Excellent point this from the dispatches reporting today. Israel attacks
Speaker 2: on our ends nuclear sites have also have continued, but
Speaker 2: there may be limits to the damage Jerusalem can inflict Israel.
Speaker 2: Israeli forces reportedly struck Iran's four to doh nuclear side
Speaker 2: overnight again, but satellite imagery showed only limited damage to
Speaker 2: the enrichment plant built into the side of a mountain.
Speaker 2: The bad news is that there are still centrifuges enriching.
Speaker 1: As we speak. That is bad news.
Speaker 2: The bad news is that there's still a large highly
Speaker 2: enriched uranium stockpile. The bad news is that Fodah, the
Speaker 2: heavily fortified fuel enrichment plant under almost three hundred feet
Speaker 2: of rock in central Ran, is still intact, says this
Speaker 2: guy who's the senior director for the Foundation for the
Speaker 2: Defensive Democracies about Iran's nuclear program. While the Israelis have
Speaker 2: been very militarily successful, there is still a lingerid question
Speaker 2: mark over the counter proliferation operation that triggered this whole thing.
Speaker 2: So if they're still actually spinning and enriching, and then
Speaker 2: you got the whole stockpile that allowed them to build
Speaker 2: weapons from anywhere from eight to fifty depending on who
Speaker 2: you ask, would be plenty. That's a problem, I mean,
Speaker 2: the we're a long way from done.
Speaker 1: If that's the case, right, well, I wasn't sure how
Speaker 1: to take out seriously, to take Netnyahu's statements that this
Speaker 1: might take days or weeks, I thought, wow, weeks of
Speaker 1: the stuff. But that speaks to that statement, right.
Speaker 2: So I have heard so many different experts with different ideas.
Speaker 2: One expert's idea was, well, yeah, Israel hasn't gotten there yet,
Speaker 2: but they're going to keep pounding that same site. They
Speaker 2: don't have the one bunker buster bomb that you can
Speaker 2: drop and get it done with one drop, but they
Speaker 2: can continue to pound and pound and pound away and
Speaker 2: eventually they will pound their way through. That makes sense
Speaker 2: just from a you know, if you've ever tried to
Speaker 2: destroy anything standpoint, you could use one giant explosion ory
Speaker 2: you can keep hitting it with a hammer like a
Speaker 2: million times and maybe get through.
Speaker 1: But meanwhile, I'm sure the strategy involves we'll also destroy
Speaker 1: the entrances and the roads leading up to it, and
Speaker 1: the trucks that would carry the materials and the launch pads,
Speaker 1: and the rocket factory, and the tire factory that supplies
Speaker 1: the trucks, and you know, down the road, every possible
Speaker 1: input they could identify.
Speaker 2: So, uh, if Trump is committed to the idea that
Speaker 2: Iran doesn't get a nuke, then at some point we're
Speaker 2: gonna have to join in and help.
Speaker 1: And we'll see.
Speaker 2: As Trump we read this earlier, Trump told Atlantic Magazine, Hey,
Speaker 2: America First, or whatever the MAGA movement is about. I
Speaker 2: make those decisions. I'm the leader, so people can't scream
Speaker 2: and yell that this isn't America First. I came up
Speaker 2: with the term.
Speaker 1: I'll define it, and my definition includes getting rid of
Speaker 1: Iran's nuclear program, which I think was an interesting thing
Speaker 1: for him to say. Yeah, I'm just thinking out loud here,
Speaker 1: but in the same way that and we uh, Jack,
Speaker 1: you described this beautifully. I think the first time Trump
Speaker 1: was running that Trump isn't a racist, but he didn't
Speaker 1: want to run off what he perceived as kind of
Speaker 1: the redneck, maybe racist Southern vote, and so he just
Speaker 1: kind of soft pedaled any sort of criticism of that
Speaker 1: sort of people, especially because the mainstream media was calling
Speaker 1: absolutely everybody a racist. At that point for everything they did,
Speaker 1: and so I could absolutely picture Trump who's good at
Speaker 1: building coalitions, convincing the restrictionist crowd, the isolationist crowd, whatever
Speaker 1: you want to call. Yeah, I'm down with you. You
Speaker 1: got a lot of good ideas over there is some
Speaker 1: good points you're making. Mm hmmmm. Well, when you know
Speaker 1: it comes time to uh, you know, the to get
Speaker 1: down to brass tacks, he's down with the destruction of Florida,
Speaker 1: for instance. Wouldn't surprise me a bit me ne either.
Speaker 2: I'm sure we'll have more on that tomorrow and over
Speaker 2: the next several weeks, maybe years. Anniversary of two very
Speaker 2: important things yesterday, June fifteenth. First of all, my favorite
Speaker 2: song of all time. It was the sixtieth anniversary of
Speaker 2: Bob Dylan walking into a studio and recording Like the
Speaker 2: Rolling Stones sixty years ago. That's my favorite song of
Speaker 2: all time. Wow, excellent, good to have one. And if
Speaker 2: you've seen the movie with a little Timothy Shallowy, they
Speaker 2: spend a lot of time on that particular recording session
Speaker 2: and it's.
Speaker 1: Very cool, oh cool.
Speaker 2: More importantly, it was the anniversary yesterday the eight hundred
Speaker 2: and ninth anniversary of the Magna carta. Its date of
Speaker 2: birth is June fifteenth, twelve to fifteen, in which for
Speaker 2: the first time for the least Kings of Inger said, Hey, King,
Speaker 2: you're still king and everything, but we got to sign
Speaker 2: off on it first. He can't just do whatever the
Speaker 2: hell you want, all right, right, so and he agreed.
Speaker 1: The King agreed. Otherwise he'd have had his head cut
Speaker 1: off or something. Go ahead. Once a pound of time,
Speaker 1: the King WANs, and worth a dime. Congress s and
Speaker 1: it's prime. They needed riots, didn't.
Speaker 2: They look look at Joe combining like a rolling stone
Speaker 2: with the birth poorly, very poorly, with the.
Speaker 1: Birthday of the minda carta fantastic. That was art That
Speaker 1: was really artistic.
Speaker 2: We've been playing Bill maher jokes throughout the morning, and
Speaker 2: he his Friday night HBO show is what we're playing
Speaker 2: the jokes from. He's got another show that I watched
Speaker 2: regularly where he sits down in a basement and smokes
Speaker 2: pot with various celebrities and has very very long conversations.
Speaker 1: I love that show. It's very interesting. And he drinks
Speaker 1: hard liquor too. He drinks whiskey and smokes spot and
Speaker 1: I'm by the end.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I must say I usually have to bail out
Speaker 2: because he starts to get laughing at everything, and he
Speaker 2: spaces out all the.
Speaker 1: Time because he's I, well, were we just talking about?
Speaker 2: I'll say anyway, But I've seen some really really good
Speaker 2: conversations with comedians, actors, politicians, all kinds of different people.
Speaker 2: He had Sean Penn on the other day, and I
Speaker 2: haven't actually seen this, but he got angry at Sean
Speaker 2: Penn because Sean ped came in and criticized the Bill
Speaker 2: Maher for meeting with Trump, for sitting down with Trump,
Speaker 2: and Bill Martin said, I wish I could say the
Speaker 2: word because it makes it better. You met with effing
Speaker 2: Castro and Hugo Chavez. That's pretty good.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wow, I wonder where it went from there. I
Speaker 1: know I might check it out. I might have to
Speaker 1: tune in. Yeah, that crowd whatever, all right, good for you.
Speaker 1: I know they just wear me out.
Speaker 2: I do need to watch some highlights of the parade
Speaker 2: if you if you haven't seen the on the military parade,
Speaker 2: the Army Birthday parade, if you haven't seen the soldiers
Speaker 2: marching with those robot dogs. I thought that was freaking
Speaker 2: cool and frightening because we ain't the only people that
Speaker 2: are gonna have robot dogs.
Speaker 1: Wow wow, Yeah, yeah, I wish i'd seen it. I
Speaker 1: actually it was a busy day Saturday, and I flipped
Speaker 1: on the TV a couple of times when I had
Speaker 1: a free moment to see if there was any coverage
Speaker 1: of it, and I really didn't get any. I'm sure
Speaker 1: they did on Fox.
Speaker 2: I was talking to my dad last night for Father's
Speaker 2: Danny said they watched the whole thing beginning to end,
Speaker 2: and I found it very, very enjoyable.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'll bet it's available somewhere to watch again.
Speaker 1: But yeah, the more I hear about it, the more
Speaker 1: I think it was everything we were hoping it would be,
Speaker 1: and really nothing of what everybody on the left, particularly
Speaker 1: said it would be an Unamerican North Korea style blah
Speaker 1: blah blah. Actually some people on the right said that too,
Speaker 1: Come to think of it, you only used to get
Speaker 1: juiced in it. We we'll finish strong next. I have
Speaker 1: not been invited.
Speaker 6: The only reason I would not accept an invitation is
Speaker 6: because I see I see.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: So it's a long flight and I see no.
Speaker 3: Really you meet with I don't castro into gushia Vez,
Speaker 3: but not the president of the United States.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I saw good results come out of some of
Speaker 6: those things. In terms of generalize that I had, I
Speaker 6: don't think that there's anything that that I would I
Speaker 6: just personally wouldn't trust anything that was said in the room.
Speaker 3: Personality. It's not a it's a it's not a matter
Speaker 3: of matter of trusting it. It's a better of seeing it,
Speaker 3: matter of experiencing, matter of knowing it.
Speaker 4: More.
Speaker 3: No, it's like saying I don't want this UH medical
Speaker 3: test because.
Speaker 1: You know I don't want to know. I want to know.
Speaker 2: That's Bill Maher talking to Sean Penn, high and drunk
Speaker 2: in the basement of his UH shack that he has
Speaker 2: behind his house.
Speaker 1: Wow, these people are so.
Speaker 2: Self reverential of themselves in a way that the rest
Speaker 2: of the world doesn't get. Sean Penn, I, of course
Speaker 2: I met with Hugo Chavez because I feel like I
Speaker 2: accomplished a lot.
Speaker 1: You didn't accomplish anything.
Speaker 2: He doesn't care what you think, Sean Penn, And I
Speaker 2: don't know if i'd accomplish anything with Trump. You feel
Speaker 2: like you could meet with a different present and accomplish
Speaker 2: something because you're Shawn pen.
Speaker 1: Man, what are you talking about? Yeah, that was reasonably
Speaker 1: bright guy trying desperately to find an argument and being unsuccessful.
Speaker 2: You think these communist leaders meet with you because they
Speaker 2: want to hear your valuable input on things, and it
Speaker 2: isn't just because it helps give them some legitimacy that
Speaker 2: a giant movie star.
Speaker 1: Is meeting with them I would have dropped everything and
Speaker 1: paid all expenses to meet with Joe Biden. Of me too.
Speaker 2: If somebody said I could get you a dinner with
Speaker 2: a bu you and three other people and the president
Speaker 2: name a president, I'm going are you kidding?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a well, it's Trump de arrangement syndrome.
Speaker 2: It's also over and over inflating the fact that he
Speaker 2: thinks he has a hand in major policies around the
Speaker 2: world because he's Shawn ben or something.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, how odd? Huh? So touched on this briefly.
Speaker 1: Did you want to talk about this survivor of the
Speaker 1: Air India crash because I'm reading more from aviation experts
Speaker 1: and they are virtually all saying pilot error on the
Speaker 1: plane crash.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they said the good news though, right, isn't that
Speaker 2: good news? It's better than mechanicalry. You can do something
Speaker 2: about pilot error. Get better pilots.
Speaker 1: Well, hang on now, My next sentence was going to
Speaker 1: be the The consensus was that the majority of accidents
Speaker 1: are either pilot error or maintenance error. According to airline
Speaker 1: consultantslet's forums, which are not necessarily going to be correct
Speaker 1: because sometimes, you know, people bark up the wrong tree.
Speaker 1: But in pilot's forums they point out that the seven
Speaker 1: thirty seven Max that was the Boeing plane that had
Speaker 1: so many problems a number of years ago. Unlike that plane,
Speaker 1: the Dreamliners tried and true, any tendency toward mechanical failure
Speaker 1: would have emerged years and years ago. It is a
Speaker 1: great trusted aircraft and pilots know it. So why do
Speaker 1: most airline professionals believe it was pilot error? Mainly because
Speaker 1: the videos showed a series of things that didn't make
Speaker 1: sense to them. First, the flaps on the wings were up,
Speaker 1: a huge mistake. The upposition pushes the plane down to
Speaker 1: use during landings. Second, the landing gear was never attracted.
Speaker 1: That's something pilot usually takes care of the moment the
Speaker 1: plane leaves the ground. Anybody who's ever flown knows that.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're barely off their ground and you hear
Speaker 1: the clunk clunk on a form used by professional pilots.
Speaker 1: I saw these two observations again and again, writes this
Speaker 1: journalist in a thread, Gear down, flap up. And then
Speaker 1: this retired pilot who flew for Delta for years and years,
Speaker 1: found the flat mistake extremely puzzling, to say the least.
Speaker 1: Quote At Delta, the rule is that you don't even
Speaker 1: begin taxinging to the runway until both the pilot and
Speaker 1: co pilot have physically looked at the flaps. They turn
Speaker 1: and look out the window to make sure the flaps
Speaker 1: are in the right position. It's almost fail proof, and
Speaker 1: several people speculating that perhaps the pilot in Air India
Speaker 1: veterans somehow hit the flap control instead of the landing
Speaker 1: gear control and was he drunk or stupid or poorly trained,
Speaker 1: or what's the deal or all of the above. I
Speaker 1: don't know. The other factor was one hundred and seven
Speaker 1: degrees that day, the flight was full passenger's luggage and fuel.
Speaker 1: Another experts said if the crew didn't factor in the
Speaker 1: high temperature to set the correct engine thrust to account
Speaker 1: for the plane's weight, the engines might not have generated
Speaker 1: enough power to keep the plane airborne after lift off.
Speaker 2: I just I think that that guy who survived in
Speaker 2: C eleven e he should already have an agent so
Speaker 2: he can become a motivational speaker or a religious figure,
Speaker 2: or get on dancing with the stars, or something all
Speaker 2: of the above.
Speaker 1: Are you kidding? Who watch final thoughts? Who watch final thoughts?
Speaker 1: Go have some final thoughts. Hooray, here's your host final thoughts.
Speaker 1: Joe Getty quick on here meeting Michael the opening clip
Speaker 1: of the show. That's gonna be my final sock. Let's
Speaker 1: get a final thought for everybody on the cow to
Speaker 1: wrap up the show for the day. There he is, Michael.
Speaker 1: Line is a little pressing the button switching final thought Michael, Oh.
Speaker 7: Yeah, just I always get an amusement when movie stars
Speaker 7: think they made a difference. That's like me writing to
Speaker 7: Donald Trump and he's saying, I want you to close
Speaker 7: the border, and then he does. You know, a couple
Speaker 7: months later, I say he did it because of my letter.
Speaker 1: That's a good one, kidding. Katie Greener esteemed to us
Speaker 1: woman as a final thought.
Speaker 7: Katie, I like what you guys were saying earlier along
Speaker 7: the lines of wow, so much has changed and I
Speaker 7: feel so different today after the no Kings protests.
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, what now? Who cares? Jack?
Speaker 8: Final thought for us fans of competitive eating like me
Speaker 8: are rejoicing as Joey Chestnut, friend of the Armstrong in
Speaker 8: Geddy Show, the World's Greatest Eater, will be returning to
Speaker 8: Nathan's Hot Dog eating contest on fourth of July.
Speaker 1: They worked out their differences. He didn't get to go
Speaker 1: last year, he will be there this year. Fabulous, and
Speaker 1: I'm giving my final thoughts to Douglas Murray.
Speaker 9: Every single country, including this one, will condemn Israel, and
Speaker 9: they will go back to their homes and they will
Speaker 9: say in private, thank God for Israel. The Saudis, the Barralis,
Speaker 9: the Egyptians, the Libyans, the Lebanese, everybody will say thank
Speaker 9: God they did it because nobody else would true that.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Geddy wrapping up another grueling four hour workday.
Speaker 1: So many people think so little time. Go to Armstrong
Speaker 1: Geddy dot com all sorts, great clicks there. We'll see
Speaker 1: you then. God bless America. I'm strong and getty. What
Speaker 1: do we want to be? Losers? Or winners. I want winners.
Speaker 1: We smell like winning around here. I think your star
Speaker 1: spangled Washington.
Speaker 7: They are the true hero, greatest dynasty ever and everyone
Speaker 7: knows it.
Speaker 1: So let's go out with a bang Selma Hayak for
Speaker 1: the win. There, that would be Friedrich Hayek hm wrong,
Speaker 1: hyak right, very different
Speaker 7: And on that possibly nightmare inducing Why Armstrong and Getty
