WEBVTT - My Lawn Is Racist

0:00:08.360 --> 0:00:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George

0:00:13.720 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong and Joe, Katty Armstrong and.

0:00:18.480 --> 0:00:24.640
<v Speaker 2>Jetty and he arms wrong yet.

0:00:29.720 --> 0:00:35.600
<v Speaker 3>A confusing live from studio se say signor a dimmly

0:00:35.680 --> 0:00:37.880
<v Speaker 3>let room deep within the bowels of the Armstrong and

0:00:37.960 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 3>Getty Communications compound. We charge a toll for anybody to

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 3>walk in and out of here. So far nobody's wanted to.

0:00:44.240 --> 0:00:46.040
<v Speaker 4>But we're ready.

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Today. We are toiling under the title of the show,

0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:50.200
<v Speaker 2>and the winner is.

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:57.240
<v Speaker 4>Are a tradition unlike any other. The Masters of the

0:00:57.240 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 4>Golf tournament starts. Yes, the Master starts today. It's my

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 4>super Bowl. It's a four day super Bowl. Is Tiger playing?

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.720
<v Speaker 4>He might be playing on the prison softball team.

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:13.479
<v Speaker 3>So, at least as of a couple of hours ago,

0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:17.280
<v Speaker 3>not a single the Strait is open. According to Donald Trump,

0:01:17.440 --> 0:01:19.800
<v Speaker 3>the Straight of Horror Moves is open. Not a single

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:22.520
<v Speaker 3>oil tanker has gone through in the last twenty four hours,

0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:28.400
<v Speaker 3>and only four boats total bulk cargo vessels. Fewest number

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 3>of boats going through the strait since this whole thing started.

0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 2>Happened the day it was declared open.

0:01:37.400 --> 0:01:43.640
<v Speaker 4>It's open, ish What so that even me, I don't know.

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 2>I have no idea what's going on. I don't think

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:46.479
<v Speaker 2>anybody else does either.

0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:52.520
<v Speaker 4>I have actually occupied myself this marn by reading several

0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:58.480
<v Speaker 4>different analyses of who won, who lost, where everything stands,

0:01:58.840 --> 0:02:03.600
<v Speaker 4>and they contrast with each other fairly significantly, and none

0:02:03.680 --> 0:02:06.400
<v Speaker 4>are either like super trumpy or Trump deranged. They're all

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:10.040
<v Speaker 4>pretty good, solid analysts.

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:11.079
<v Speaker 2>It's tough to know.

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:13.040
<v Speaker 3>But how can you have a who won or who lost?

0:02:13.080 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 3>At this point it seems like we're in the middle

0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:16.919
<v Speaker 3>of it or in the beginning of it. Yeah, that

0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:20.799
<v Speaker 3>verbiage is bad. It's who has gained advantages and who

0:02:20.840 --> 0:02:23.720
<v Speaker 3>has lost advantages, who's gotten stronger or weaker?

0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 4>And in what ways? That's more what they're asking. How

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:32.200
<v Speaker 4>it seems to be and this I have a feeling

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.760
<v Speaker 4>you're heading towards this. But there seems to be a

0:02:35.040 --> 0:02:40.480
<v Speaker 4>fairly confident assumption that Trump's done with the heavy stuff.

0:02:41.240 --> 0:02:43.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh really, He's kind of decided out of the costs

0:02:43.480 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 4>are too high.

0:02:44.240 --> 0:02:45.720
<v Speaker 2>Well, he said, he.

0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:50.400
<v Speaker 3>Truthed out late last night that all US ships, aircraft,

0:02:50.400 --> 0:02:54.720
<v Speaker 3>military personnel, ammunition, weaponry, anything else that's appropriate and necessary

0:02:54.760 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 3>for the prosecution and destruction of our enemy will remain

0:02:58.040 --> 0:02:58.480
<v Speaker 3>in place.

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.400
<v Speaker 2>How long can you keep the gun cocked? I know it.

0:03:03.440 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 3>You can't do it permanently. Obviously not permanently, but long

0:03:06.960 --> 0:03:08.640
<v Speaker 3>term it's pretty hard to do. I mean, if he

0:03:08.680 --> 0:03:11.120
<v Speaker 3>was going to follow through in his threat of whatever

0:03:11.160 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 3>he meant, he wasn't going to destroy the civilization, but

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:18.640
<v Speaker 3>whatever he was going to do, is that still on

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.440
<v Speaker 3>the table. That was the only point of leverage we

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:24.399
<v Speaker 3>had or he felt like he had Monday morning.

0:03:24.680 --> 0:03:27.520
<v Speaker 4>Right, that's the question. And I have a feeling he's

0:03:27.560 --> 0:03:30.760
<v Speaker 4>going to have the Gulf States in his ear, and

0:03:31.600 --> 0:03:33.799
<v Speaker 4>well really all sorts of countries in his ear trying

0:03:33.800 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 4>to push him one way or another.

0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:39.880
<v Speaker 3>I was just reading my morning newsletter that I like

0:03:40.480 --> 0:03:46.880
<v Speaker 3>complaining that, So why is Islama DoD Islama Bob the

0:03:46.880 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 3>capital of Pakistan? How did they end up being the negotiators?

0:03:52.680 --> 0:03:55.880
<v Speaker 3>They're the country that hid bid laden from us? How

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:59.400
<v Speaker 3>are they our fair broker? India is asking the same thing.

0:03:59.720 --> 0:04:01.240
<v Speaker 3>I don't No, it seems bizarre to me.

0:04:02.040 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 4>Maybe because they know all the actors and can get

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:04.880
<v Speaker 4>them in a room.

0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:08.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't even know what to say about this At

0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:12.720
<v Speaker 3>this point. I'm pretty concerned that what's going to end

0:04:12.800 --> 0:04:18.039
<v Speaker 3>up happening is that Iran is going to actually get

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:20.160
<v Speaker 3>to continue their nuclear program. The regime is going to

0:04:20.200 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 3>stay in place, and they're going to continue their nuclear program.

0:04:23.880 --> 0:04:26.520
<v Speaker 4>I think that's probably the most likely outcome. Every sale

0:04:26.839 --> 0:04:32.839
<v Speaker 4>they do has been set back by months, years, a decade,

0:04:33.040 --> 0:04:37.440
<v Speaker 4>but they've they've decided, Hey, controlling shipping totally works. Man,

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:39.360
<v Speaker 4>we can get anybody to do anything. This is our

0:04:39.400 --> 0:04:39.880
<v Speaker 4>new gig.

0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:42.799
<v Speaker 2>Will they ever let the straight open back up again?

0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:46.560
<v Speaker 4>Great question? And what will the world do about it

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:49.520
<v Speaker 4>if they don't. Will Europe ever find it's a bullocks

0:04:49.600 --> 0:04:53.040
<v Speaker 4>as they might say in Great Britain and assert itself

0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:54.200
<v Speaker 4>in any meaningful way?

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Can they certa in case you don't know.

0:04:56.480 --> 0:05:00.560
<v Speaker 3>Currently An Iran is demanding that oil tankers passing through

0:05:00.600 --> 0:05:04.039
<v Speaker 3>the state make toll payments in the form of cryptocurrent currency.

0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:07.279
<v Speaker 3>You can use bitcoin, you can use Trump Family USD

0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:12.280
<v Speaker 3>one if you want to to boy which would old

0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:15.479
<v Speaker 3>family make actually stated?

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 2>You can pay in Trump crypto if you want.

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 3>Vessels have been told to email Iranian authorities prior to

0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:25.800
<v Speaker 3>passage through the area with details regarding their cargo. Which

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:28.160
<v Speaker 3>authorities will then respond with a quote for how much

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 3>we're charging. You reportedly set at a dollar per barrel

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:33.120
<v Speaker 3>of oil.

0:05:34.440 --> 0:05:37.640
<v Speaker 2>And these ships are absolutely enormous.

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:39.000
<v Speaker 3>And that's where he came up with the number you

0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 3>were hearing all day yesterday, somewhere around two million.

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Dollars a boat to get through.

0:05:43.279 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 4>Wall Street. Journal writer I can't remember who had an

0:05:46.040 --> 0:05:51.080
<v Speaker 4>amusing and revealing and somewhat disturbing article today. He wrote

0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:56.240
<v Speaker 4>up Iran's new plan as an IPO, as an initial

0:05:56.240 --> 0:05:59.600
<v Speaker 4>public offering of a company to buy stock in the

0:06:00.120 --> 0:06:03.440
<v Speaker 4>new projections, their business model, the risks that they face,

0:06:03.480 --> 0:06:05.320
<v Speaker 4>and that sort of thing, to run this as a

0:06:05.360 --> 0:06:07.920
<v Speaker 4>brand new business that would clear billions and billions of

0:06:07.960 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 4>dollars a year and finance their military and their nuclear programs.

0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:14.320
<v Speaker 4>It was quite interesting.

0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 3>I was reading some finker on the right. It might

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:21.240
<v Speaker 3>even have been newt Gingrich h might have been anyway.

0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.279
<v Speaker 3>It was somebody making the argument that Iran is just

0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:27.360
<v Speaker 3>doing what they always do. They're just dragging this out

0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 3>and then we either get tired, or the election gets

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:35.560
<v Speaker 3>close enough, or the public polling turns bad enough or

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:40.080
<v Speaker 3>whatever that we just kind of give up, and then

0:06:40.120 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 3>they continue on their merry way to trying to get

0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:44.960
<v Speaker 3>a weapon and ruling that country with an iron fist

0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:47.360
<v Speaker 3>and probably hanging even more college.

0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:52.039
<v Speaker 4>Students and the utterly brutal transactional leaders of Iran have

0:06:52.240 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 4>found levers that work with Trump. Maybe maybe that's the

0:06:55.880 --> 0:06:58.560
<v Speaker 4>way it kind of smells from here, but who knows.

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:02.599
<v Speaker 4>By noon today, certainly next week, it could look completely different.

0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:03.920
<v Speaker 4>So many question marks.

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:05.799
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand.

0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:07.920
<v Speaker 3>How the how the why. We'll play some of these

0:07:07.920 --> 0:07:10.320
<v Speaker 3>clips later. How Trump and JD. Vans can go out

0:07:10.320 --> 0:07:12.400
<v Speaker 3>and say, look, it's a it's been a bumpy start

0:07:12.400 --> 0:07:14.800
<v Speaker 3>to the ceasefire. They're talking about the rockets going back

0:07:14.840 --> 0:07:17.160
<v Speaker 3>and forth. Yeah, I get that. I'm enough of a

0:07:17.160 --> 0:07:19.320
<v Speaker 3>student of the End of Wars to know that that happens.

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 3>But usually the two sides are talking out loud with

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:29.400
<v Speaker 3>things they agree on while the sloppy ceasefire begins and

0:07:29.440 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 3>then starts to hold that's not what's going on here.

0:07:32.720 --> 0:07:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Each side is saying, you know.

0:07:35.040 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 3>This is a cat, this is a dog, the different sides,

0:07:38.120 --> 0:07:41.840
<v Speaker 3>and there's no indication that anybody's budging at all, And

0:07:41.920 --> 0:07:44.400
<v Speaker 3>so Trump and JD are saying, no, the strait is

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:48.880
<v Speaker 3>open Iran's agreed to it. While the facts on the

0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:52.320
<v Speaker 3>ground are the fewest ships went through the Strait of any.

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Day since the war started.

0:07:54.200 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 3>It's not only not open, it's more closed than it's

0:07:57.480 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 3>been at any point.

0:07:58.920 --> 0:08:03.400
<v Speaker 4>Boy, and that that Trump crypto thing disturbed me. How

0:08:03.400 --> 0:08:06.400
<v Speaker 4>about that that's combined by Trump hinting the other day

0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:08.800
<v Speaker 4>of the day, and you know they're gonna charge it tollin.

0:08:08.840 --> 0:08:10.560
<v Speaker 4>We'll get a cut of the revenue, because Trump is

0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.640
<v Speaker 4>big on getting a cut of the revenue, whether it's

0:08:12.640 --> 0:08:15.600
<v Speaker 4>in video or you know, some other tech ventures or

0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:18.960
<v Speaker 4>what have you. Combined with oh, it'll totally pump up

0:08:19.000 --> 0:08:23.679
<v Speaker 4>the Trump cryptocurrency. I just I pray that's not true.

0:08:23.920 --> 0:08:26.800
<v Speaker 4>I pray that's not what's happening here. Well, that's what

0:08:26.880 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 4>he said early in the day on ABC News. He

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:30.120
<v Speaker 4>backed off it later in the day.

0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:31.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if somebody got in his ear and

0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 3>said that that doesn't look good that whole Yes, Michael. Now,

0:08:35.440 --> 0:08:37.120
<v Speaker 3>if you're a shipper and you write a check, they

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:38.560
<v Speaker 3>got to hold it for forty eight hours and make

0:08:38.600 --> 0:08:39.200
<v Speaker 3>sure it clears.

0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:43.439
<v Speaker 4>Apparently the Iranians, oh man, that's inconvenient in the modern day,

0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 4>will you take a two party out of state.

0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:50.920
<v Speaker 2>Check no about a coupon? Do you take cukonon? Uh? Yeah,

0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know, I don't know. I have no

0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:53.560
<v Speaker 2>idea where this is going.

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.800
<v Speaker 4>Well, that Mulla is holding a spring sail, do you

0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:59.719
<v Speaker 4>take percent off shipping this month? Only come through the

0:09:00.440 --> 0:09:04.040
<v Speaker 4>most the nicest straits on Earth. So and then just briefly,

0:09:04.080 --> 0:09:05.240
<v Speaker 4>we'll talk more about this later.

0:09:05.280 --> 0:09:07.520
<v Speaker 3>There's there's a book coming out soon, one of those

0:09:07.920 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 3>insider books with lots of leaks coming out of the

0:09:10.360 --> 0:09:14.040
<v Speaker 3>White House that the New York Times has started putting

0:09:14.040 --> 0:09:16.199
<v Speaker 3>out excerpts of. And the excerpt that came out in

0:09:16.240 --> 0:09:19.679
<v Speaker 3>the last twenty four hours was all about Bibi NETANYAHUO

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.719
<v Speaker 3>coming to the White House and giving a big PowerPoint

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 3>presentation on what we should do to take down Iran,

0:09:25.960 --> 0:09:31.520
<v Speaker 3>and it looking like we took his advice and Trump

0:09:31.600 --> 0:09:33.800
<v Speaker 3>is not digging that and pretty angry at whoever leaked

0:09:33.800 --> 0:09:34.440
<v Speaker 3>that or whatever.

0:09:34.760 --> 0:09:39.560
<v Speaker 4>Oh that might explain is like really strong statements about Israel. Oh,

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:42.080
<v Speaker 4>it's absolutely in the last couple of days, Yeah.

0:09:42.040 --> 0:09:45.160
<v Speaker 3>Israel's continuing to fire on Hesbalah and saying that's not

0:09:45.240 --> 0:09:47.840
<v Speaker 3>part of the ceasefire, and Trump, jd Vance and Trump

0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:50.440
<v Speaker 3>yesterday said it's not part of the ceasefire, but then

0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:52.360
<v Speaker 3>they acted really angry about it later in the day.

0:09:52.400 --> 0:09:54.080
<v Speaker 3>So I don't know. Again, I don't know what's going on.

0:09:54.640 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 3>Oh boy, facts on the ground don't match up with

0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:57.280
<v Speaker 3>what people are saying.

0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:00.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's start the show officially. I'm Jack Armstrong, He's Joe

0:10:00.559 --> 0:10:01.200

<v Speaker 3>where I'm strong and getting We approved of this program.

0:10:07.520 --> 0:10:09.960
<v Speaker 4>Let's begin the show now officially. According to FCC rules

0:10:10.000 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 4>and regulations, here we go at market.

0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 3>We basically have two countries that have been fighting so

0:10:15.520 --> 0:10:18.240
<v Speaker 3>long and so hard that they don't know what the

0:10:18.360 --> 0:10:27.200
<v Speaker 3>fuck they're doing. Do you understand that that's new, yes,

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 3>because I remember him saying that a couple of years

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:30.840
<v Speaker 3>ago about Israel.

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.880
<v Speaker 4>Do we have the providence that was outside the White House?

0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.680
<v Speaker 4>Do we have the date line, the circa anybody, somebody, anyhoy.

0:10:40.920 --> 0:10:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Let's verifying.

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 3>Let's before when he first started getting involved in the

0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:52.400
<v Speaker 3>Israeli conflict. Do you think before we take a break

0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:54.000
<v Speaker 3>and get the Kati's headlines, do you think it's still

0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:56.560
<v Speaker 3>on the table for the whole end of civilization strike

0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.559
<v Speaker 3>that we had our gun cocked for forty eight hours ago.

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:01.360
<v Speaker 4>I would certainly hope.

0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:01.480
<v Speaker 2>So.

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:06.239
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, But like I said, several of the learned commentators

0:11:06.280 --> 0:11:09.360
<v Speaker 4>I was reading seemed to think that now this is

0:11:09.400 --> 0:11:12.440
<v Speaker 4>a clear signal that we decided not to bring that

0:11:12.480 --> 0:11:14.160
<v Speaker 4>hammer down. Trump decided not to.

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:16.680
<v Speaker 3>So that clip was from twenty twenty five? Why was

0:11:16.679 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 3>that our opening clips? I thought that sounded familiar. I

0:11:20.840 --> 0:11:22.240
<v Speaker 3>remember him saying that, yeah.

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:26.200
<v Speaker 4>Wait a minute, there will be firings, mass firings, masks,

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:32.040
<v Speaker 4>a purge, mass firings. Oh yeah, yeah, wow. You ever

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.760
<v Speaker 4>heard of Pam Bondy? Huh seems what's her name?

0:11:34.840 --> 0:11:35.040
<v Speaker 2>Ice?

0:11:35.120 --> 0:11:40.920
<v Speaker 3>Barbie Michael overreaction, thought that clip sounded familiar to me. Anyway,

0:11:40.920 --> 0:11:42.400
<v Speaker 3>We've got Ketty's headlines on the way and all the

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 3>latest news, and maybe some news from middle of twenty

0:11:44.840 --> 0:11:47.440
<v Speaker 3>twenty five, also here on the Armstrong and Giddy Show.

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:55.199
<v Speaker 3>So you're saying Tiger Woods is not playing in the Masters.

0:11:54.800 --> 0:11:55.760
<v Speaker 2>Which begins today.

<v Speaker 4>No, Indeed, the swoll has been is pilled up somewhere

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:03.839
<v Speaker 4>of his choosing jack and will not be.

<v Speaker 3>he's in a European rehab right.

<v Speaker 4>is for in the golf world. You just don't miss

0:12:17.480 --> 0:12:21.080
<v Speaker 4>it anyway, Ah, glad you're here a ton to get to.

0:12:21.160 --> 0:12:23.240
<v Speaker 4>Let's figure out who's reporting on. It's the lead story

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:25.439
<v Speaker 4>with Katie Green, Katie ay.

0:12:25.280 --> 0:12:29.480
<v Speaker 5>Right, starting with the alphabet networks ABC. Trump vows quote

0:12:29.520 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 5>bigger and better Iran attacks if dial is not reached.

0:12:33.600 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 5>CNN us I ran ceasefire holding despite Lemanon, Lebanon strikes

0:12:38.320 --> 0:12:42.599
<v Speaker 5>and restricted streets of Hormuz, and NBC Iran warns of

0:12:42.679 --> 0:12:47.280
<v Speaker 5>quote strong responses as Israel's attacks on Lebanon threaten the ceasefire.

0:12:49.280 --> 0:12:54.400
<v Speaker 3>Israel's definitely taking this opportunity to.

0:12:53.760 --> 0:12:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Wipe out all of their enemies.

0:12:55.559 --> 0:12:57.720
<v Speaker 4>Good like go ahead the Misha, Yeah, yeah, I have

0:12:57.720 --> 0:13:00.960
<v Speaker 4>no problem. I'm not sure there was a single phrase

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:03.720
<v Speaker 4>you uttered, Katie and all of those headlines that wasn't

0:13:03.760 --> 0:13:05.239
<v Speaker 4>like open to interpretation.

0:13:05.440 --> 0:13:09.480
<v Speaker 2>Sure, hall of mirrors shrouded in fog. I also think

0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:12.199
<v Speaker 2>Trump's threat just doesn't work as well now.

0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:15.480
<v Speaker 3>It just doesn't feel the same as it did with

0:13:15.600 --> 0:13:19.840
<v Speaker 3>the forty eight hour White Civilization off the planet deadline.

0:13:20.440 --> 0:13:20.960
<v Speaker 2>So I don't know.

0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't know if it reads the same way to them.

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 6>From Newsweek.

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:32.240
<v Speaker 5>Automatic military registration for eligible US men to begin in December.

0:13:33.840 --> 0:13:35.319
<v Speaker 2>We don't are already registered.

0:13:37.240 --> 0:13:39.199
<v Speaker 6>I guess automatic registration.

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:43.200
<v Speaker 2>Oh okay, I don't know if that's much of a change.

0:13:44.520 --> 0:13:49.720
<v Speaker 5>From the Free Beacon. Federal judge authorizes evictions that condominium

0:13:49.800 --> 0:13:52.280
<v Speaker 5>besieged by sprawling homeless encampment.

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:57.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, that the county in Maryland, Ultra Blue County,

0:13:57.800 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 4>let the bum camp take over and drive people out

0:14:00.080 --> 0:14:02.199
<v Speaker 4>their homes, out of their homes.

0:14:02.400 --> 0:14:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Wow.

0:14:04.559 --> 0:14:05.400
<v Speaker 6>New York Times.

0:14:06.080 --> 0:14:09.679
<v Speaker 5>US fertility rate drops to another record low.

0:14:10.200 --> 0:14:10.679
<v Speaker 2>What is it?

0:14:11.800 --> 0:14:15.560
<v Speaker 5>Fifty three point one per thousand and.

0:14:16.200 --> 0:14:17.199
<v Speaker 6>Fifty three point eight?

0:14:17.320 --> 0:14:20.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, it's it's lowest it's ever been.

0:14:20.200 --> 0:14:22.880
<v Speaker 4>I've got more information on that too, crazy.

0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Yipes, axios. And that's with letting in lots and lots

0:14:27.480 --> 0:14:29.360
<v Speaker 2>of people who are more likely to have babies.

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:34.720
<v Speaker 3>If we were, you know, hostile to any immigration like China,

0:14:34.880 --> 0:14:37.680
<v Speaker 3>for instance, what would our birth rate be then? And

0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:41.000
<v Speaker 3>for the first time ever, more women gave birth in

0:14:41.040 --> 0:14:44.960
<v Speaker 3>their thirties than their twenties that's wold first time.

0:14:45.320 --> 0:14:46.120
<v Speaker 2>That's not surprising.

0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:53.960
<v Speaker 5>No, Axios gen Z's fading AI hype. Teens and twenty

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:56.800
<v Speaker 5>somethings are less excited about the technology.

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:01.960
<v Speaker 4>Well they'll it'll render them unemployable. So I get their

0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:04.600
<v Speaker 4>lack of enthusiasm.

0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:07.960
<v Speaker 5>So when from the Daily Mail quote, I'm still alive,

0:15:08.320 --> 0:15:12.760
<v Speaker 5>says Michael J. Fox after embarrassing CNN error fueled death rumors.

0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:17.680
<v Speaker 2>Did CNN tell the world Michael J. Fox was dead?

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:20.720
<v Speaker 5>They have this big headline across their website that said,

0:15:20.800 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 5>remembering the life of Michael J. Fox, and everybody lost

0:15:24.400 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 5>their s.

0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:27.040
<v Speaker 6>Thinking he was dead.

0:15:27.440 --> 0:15:30.840
<v Speaker 2>He was watching CNN and airport and thought to make

0:15:30.840 --> 0:15:31.360
<v Speaker 2>a phone call.

0:15:31.520 --> 0:15:32.840
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I feel pretty alive.

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:37.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, New York Post stressed gen Z is carrying around

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:39.360
<v Speaker 5>anxiety bags.

0:15:39.560 --> 0:15:42.280
<v Speaker 3>Well, I was gonna men later, So we can tie

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:45.280
<v Speaker 3>that in with your earlier headline. How can everybody in

0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:50.520
<v Speaker 3>their twenties be so anxious, stressed out, miserable, yet deciding

0:15:50.560 --> 0:15:51.400
<v Speaker 3>that having kids.

0:15:51.200 --> 0:15:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Would be a bad idea?

0:15:52.520 --> 0:15:54.680
<v Speaker 3>No, no, no, no, The sense of purpose would take

0:15:54.720 --> 0:15:56.479
<v Speaker 3>care of all that stress and anxiety.

0:15:56.560 --> 0:16:01.200
<v Speaker 4>I think, Oh yeah, there's nothing like being busy to

0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 4>diminish stress and depression.

0:16:03.240 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 2>Everybody knows it. There was zero.

0:16:05.600 --> 0:16:08.080
<v Speaker 4>Anxiety and depression when he had to plow a feel

0:16:08.120 --> 0:16:11.280
<v Speaker 4>from down till dusk. No, I'm not saying everybody needs

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.360
<v Speaker 4>to do that all the time, but you get my meaning.

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.800
<v Speaker 5>And I couldn't pick between two Babylon Bees this morning,

0:16:17.840 --> 0:16:18.360
<v Speaker 5>so we have two.

0:16:19.640 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 6>This one from the Babylon Bee.

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:24.960
<v Speaker 5>Nike releases new Tiger Woods ad campaign quote, just use

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.160
<v Speaker 5>your billion dollars to hire a full time driver.

0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:16:28.840 --> 0:16:33.800
<v Speaker 5>Or as astronauts reached the farthest Eddie human has been

0:16:33.920 --> 0:16:37.000
<v Speaker 5>from Earth, mission specialist is pretty sure he left.

0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:42.120
<v Speaker 6>The oven on. I have done that except with the

0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:42.840
<v Speaker 6>hair straightener.

0:16:43.920 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh, we got to play this thing. Jd Vance said

0:16:48.200 --> 0:16:52.760
<v Speaker 3>about his wife in skydiving and uh and Iran getting

0:16:52.840 --> 0:16:53.640
<v Speaker 3>nuclear weapons.

0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:56.800
<v Speaker 2>Pardon me that I have these headphones working correctly?

0:16:57.680 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 3>What and try to figure what that means among the

0:17:01.080 --> 0:17:02.560
<v Speaker 3>other things we can discuss today.

0:17:03.080 --> 0:17:05.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and I'll absolutely bring you kind of a digest

0:17:05.359 --> 0:17:07.879
<v Speaker 4>of different opinions of where this whole thing is. And

0:17:08.200 --> 0:17:11.399
<v Speaker 4>there's all sorts of fair unrelated to Iran too that

0:17:11.440 --> 0:17:12.200
<v Speaker 4>we can talk about.

0:17:12.280 --> 0:17:14.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it turns out the cops think that dude pushed

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:18.080
<v Speaker 3>his wife off the boat as a shock all you

0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:19.119
<v Speaker 3>almost fooled us.

0:17:19.720 --> 0:17:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Good God if.

0:17:21.359 --> 0:17:23.440
<v Speaker 3>You missed the secmek at the podcast Armstrong and Getty

0:17:23.440 --> 0:17:26.479
<v Speaker 3>on demand arm Strong and Getty.

0:17:27.560 --> 0:17:30.160
<v Speaker 7>I can't stop thinking about how grass lawns are racist

0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:35.359
<v Speaker 7>and like based in white supremacy. If that doesn't make sense,

0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:38.600
<v Speaker 7>that's okay, I guess it seems really obvious to me.

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:45.640
<v Speaker 7>It's it's really upsetting. Bring back weeds, bring back clover yards. Look,

0:17:45.680 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 7>can we just can can anything just be okay in

0:17:48.560 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 7>its natural state? Or do we just have to whitewash everything,

0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:56.359
<v Speaker 7>make it a competition and use it as a sign

0:17:56.600 --> 0:17:59.080
<v Speaker 7>of your worth as a human being in society?

0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.160
<v Speaker 2>Like can we just have Yes?

0:18:01.359 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 3>Much better that you delayed having kids until your thirties

0:18:05.119 --> 0:18:08.080
<v Speaker 3>to you know, get your act together in your twenties

0:18:11.119 --> 0:18:14.400
<v Speaker 3>to even get start speaking worry about lawns being racist

0:18:14.880 --> 0:18:18.600
<v Speaker 3>and had to be rage bait, right, that's what I

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:18.919
<v Speaker 3>don't know.

0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:22.800
<v Speaker 4>My lawn is racist? But yeah, it's the wrong.

0:18:23.320 --> 0:18:26.720
<v Speaker 2>I watched it several times. She's if if.

0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:30.720
<v Speaker 3>If she's making that up, she's a really good actress. Okay, yeah,

0:18:30.760 --> 0:18:31.480
<v Speaker 3>I would agree.

0:18:31.480 --> 0:18:33.880
<v Speaker 4>I think that was one hundred percent sincere judging by

0:18:34.040 --> 0:18:36.760
<v Speaker 4>other things I've seen. I was talking to our gardener

0:18:36.800 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 4>the other day and I said, look at that over there,

0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:43.600
<v Speaker 4>it's all patchy. Next thing, you know, will be minorities.

0:18:43.840 --> 0:18:46.159
<v Speaker 4>You've got to make the lawn look nicer. I'm a

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:50.560
<v Speaker 4>white man and stern talking to Yeah, and it worked too.

0:18:50.640 --> 0:18:54.000
<v Speaker 4>He just came right to heal. Yes, wow, these people

0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:54.600
<v Speaker 4>are crazy.

0:18:54.880 --> 0:18:55.160
<v Speaker 2>Well.

0:18:55.200 --> 0:18:57.880
<v Speaker 3>The fact that you'd even have to ask the question,

0:18:58.000 --> 0:18:59.760
<v Speaker 3>is that reeler fake shows you how far down the

0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:01.120
<v Speaker 3>road of craziness we are.

0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:06.280
<v Speaker 4>Yes, yeah, yeah, Before we get back to the theme

0:19:06.320 --> 0:19:10.320
<v Speaker 4>of the birth rate and people in general not having

0:19:10.440 --> 0:19:14.199
<v Speaker 4>kids and what that causes. As long as we're on

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:17.720
<v Speaker 4>this theme, Hey Michael, this is number twelve. Is a

0:19:18.800 --> 0:19:24.000
<v Speaker 4>Canadian Mpmember of Parliament. You're gonna want to grab a

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:27.080
<v Speaker 4>pencil or a pen and a piece of paper because

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:29.320
<v Speaker 4>the code has just gotten longer.

0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:32.920
<v Speaker 1>When the budget was released, I was shocked to find

0:19:32.960 --> 0:19:37.480
<v Speaker 1>out that Prime Minister Carney is cutting seven billion dollars

0:19:37.600 --> 0:19:43.200
<v Speaker 1>between Indigenous Services Canada and Crown Indigenous Relations. They provided

0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:48.440
<v Speaker 1>zero dollars to deal with the ongoing genocide of MMIWG

0:19:48.640 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 1>two slgbt QQIA plus this is abhorrent.

0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:57.959
<v Speaker 3>That is abhorrent. That was a whole bunch of new

0:19:58.040 --> 0:19:59.280
<v Speaker 3>letters I'd never heard before.

0:19:59.560 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 4>I believe that Leah Gazon is a fella presenting himself

0:20:04.280 --> 0:20:05.840
<v Speaker 4>as a woman or vice versa or something.

0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:09.920
<v Speaker 3>Well, they they rolled that all those letters out though,

0:20:09.960 --> 0:20:11.399
<v Speaker 3>like they've said that multiple times.

0:20:11.480 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 2>Did I miss the update? Yeah?

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:17.480
<v Speaker 4>I think them must have must have memorized that.

0:20:17.520 --> 0:20:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Can you roll?

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:19.680
<v Speaker 4>Can we jump into the middle of it?

0:20:19.720 --> 0:20:20.000
<v Speaker 2>Michael?

0:20:20.040 --> 0:20:20.640
<v Speaker 4>Is that possible?

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:23.320
<v Speaker 1>Of Indigenous women and girls two s l g b

0:20:23.440 --> 0:20:25.960
<v Speaker 1>t q q I A plush?

0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:27.840
<v Speaker 4>Did you jumped into the middle of the letters?

0:20:29.359 --> 0:20:30.560
<v Speaker 2>A little further back.

0:20:32.440 --> 0:20:35.080
<v Speaker 1>When the budget was released, I was shocked to find

0:20:35.119 --> 0:20:39.680
<v Speaker 1>out that Prime Minister Carney is cutting seven billion dollars

0:20:39.760 --> 0:20:45.360
<v Speaker 1>between Indigenous Services Canada and Crown Indigenous Relations. They provided

0:20:45.720 --> 0:20:49.760
<v Speaker 1>zero dollars to deal with the ongoing genocide of m

0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 1>m i w G two s l g b t

0:20:51.920 --> 0:20:53.240
<v Speaker 1>q q I A plus.

0:20:53.800 --> 0:20:57.560
<v Speaker 4>This is abhorrent. Sorry to hear about the genocide m

0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:05.640
<v Speaker 4>m i w G two s lgbt qqia plus. There

0:21:05.680 --> 0:21:09.920
<v Speaker 4>can't be much left that the plus includes. I mean,

0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:12.200
<v Speaker 4>how many more letters would there be if you eliminate

0:21:12.440 --> 0:21:14.840
<v Speaker 4>the plus or the like three more or fifty.

0:21:17.240 --> 0:21:19.800
<v Speaker 3>Well, and it's a genocide of that group that is

0:21:19.840 --> 0:21:20.600
<v Speaker 3>going on.

0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 4>In their many incarnations. Yes, right under our noses. I'm

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 4>anti genocide.

0:21:26.680 --> 0:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Let the record show, particularly Indigenous women and girls to

0:21:30.200 --> 0:21:33.240
<v Speaker 1>s lgbt qqia plus.

0:21:34.240 --> 0:21:36.520
<v Speaker 4>Okay, where were we ies?

0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:41.480
<v Speaker 3>Why the US fertility rate has hit a record low.

0:21:40.760 --> 0:21:45.880
<v Speaker 3>A child bearing is shifted toward women thirty and older,

0:21:46.359 --> 0:21:49.400
<v Speaker 3>and we are further below the level needed.

0:21:49.080 --> 0:21:53.440
<v Speaker 4>To sustain the population. Nation's fertility rate hit record lows

0:21:53.440 --> 0:21:56.000
<v Speaker 4>in twenty twenty five, surpassing the record low in twenty

0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:59.000
<v Speaker 4>twenty four. For the six straight year. The number of

0:21:59.040 --> 0:22:00.760
<v Speaker 4>children born in the US from meaned it roughly the

0:22:00.840 --> 0:22:07.720
<v Speaker 4>same number. Do they break this out by immigration status?

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:10.320
<v Speaker 4>I wonder. I don't actually know that I heard.

0:22:10.160 --> 0:22:15.399
<v Speaker 3>Anybody other than us talk about It's not people aren't

0:22:15.440 --> 0:22:20.240
<v Speaker 3>choosing this, it's it's they think they are. But something

0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:25.840
<v Speaker 3>happened to the beast with us being safe and comfortable,

0:22:26.119 --> 0:22:28.040
<v Speaker 3>that we lost the desire.

0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:28.320
<v Speaker 2>To have kids.

0:22:28.760 --> 0:22:30.960
<v Speaker 4>I've didn't heard anybody talk about that other than us,

0:22:31.080 --> 0:22:34.480
<v Speaker 4>and in age shockingly short time. Yeah, I believe that's

0:22:34.480 --> 0:22:42.399
<v Speaker 4>what happened. Virtually everybody in the eighties. It desperate to

0:22:42.440 --> 0:22:45.159
<v Speaker 4>get together, to being a couple, to couple off, to

0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:47.720
<v Speaker 4>have sex, to be making out with somebody of the

0:22:47.760 --> 0:22:50.480
<v Speaker 4>opposite or same sex. Don't ask, don't tell, uh. I mean,

0:22:50.520 --> 0:22:55.080
<v Speaker 4>it was a damn near universal. We're also the richest

0:22:55.119 --> 0:22:55.720
<v Speaker 4>we've ever been.

0:22:55.960 --> 0:22:58.840
<v Speaker 3>That stuff We did earlier in the week that studies

0:22:58.840 --> 0:23:02.120
<v Speaker 3>showing that the reasonasses shrunk is because so many people.

0:23:01.920 --> 0:23:02.880
<v Speaker 2>Are upper class now.

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:06.080
<v Speaker 3>So the idea that well, I'm putting off having kids

0:23:06.119 --> 0:23:07.880
<v Speaker 3>because you can't afford it, which is what a lot

0:23:07.880 --> 0:23:10.200
<v Speaker 3>of people say, doesn't make any sense because our parents

0:23:10.280 --> 0:23:13.920
<v Speaker 3>had kids, you know, living in an apartment with one car, because.

0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:17.240
<v Speaker 2>The desire was so strong. The desire has gone away

0:23:17.240 --> 0:23:20.600
<v Speaker 2>to have kids. That's the that's the story. Why.

0:23:20.680 --> 0:23:25.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think there there are some sociological like the

0:23:25.760 --> 0:23:30.280
<v Speaker 4>mindset of society re children has changed, but that and

0:23:30.320 --> 0:23:32.760
<v Speaker 4>I think that's a part of the stew. But I

0:23:32.800 --> 0:23:35.480
<v Speaker 4>think that's like the carrots in the stew, and everybody

0:23:35.520 --> 0:23:37.720
<v Speaker 4>ignores what you're saying, which I think is is the

0:23:37.800 --> 0:23:40.880
<v Speaker 4>meat and potatoes and everything else, well, especially the instinctive.

0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:44.919
<v Speaker 4>We had the data month or so ago that this

0:23:45.080 --> 0:23:51.560
<v Speaker 4>is happening everywhere, rich country, poor country, populated, not populated

0:23:51.640 --> 0:23:55.040
<v Speaker 4>first world, you know whatever. It's just country people are

0:23:55.119 --> 0:23:59.439
<v Speaker 4>really hot people more homely countries as well. People have

0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:10.040
<v Speaker 4>stopped having babies. Yeah, and so something happened this Yeah,

0:24:10.440 --> 0:24:13.040
<v Speaker 4>Well our sperm count has dropped like by half.

0:24:13.400 --> 0:24:16.920
<v Speaker 3>For yourself, Well, I have a microscope and I check

0:24:16.920 --> 0:24:18.600
<v Speaker 3>it once a week, every every Sunday morning.

0:24:18.840 --> 0:24:21.840
<v Speaker 4>That's a great policy. Very Yeah, I've been neutered, as.

0:24:21.760 --> 0:24:25.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, count of one two my place stop moving,

0:24:26.200 --> 0:24:26.720
<v Speaker 2>it gets.

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:29.560
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:24:30.440 --> 0:24:32.119
<v Speaker 3>So sperm count has dropped a lot, but you know,

0:24:32.160 --> 0:24:34.639
<v Speaker 3>it's people aren't trying to have kids. So it's not

0:24:34.800 --> 0:24:36.959
<v Speaker 3>that that's causing the lack of kids. But I'll bet

0:24:37.000 --> 0:24:40.520
<v Speaker 3>it fits in. For some reason, biologically, our male bodies

0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:45.720
<v Speaker 3>decided we don't need sperm and and and also our minds.

0:24:45.400 --> 0:24:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Have just decided, yeah, I don't need to I don't

0:24:47.040 --> 0:24:47.720
<v Speaker 2>need to procreate.

0:24:48.320 --> 0:24:51.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm leaning towards that explanation. It could be that

0:24:51.359 --> 0:24:56.840
<v Speaker 4>there's something biochemical going on environmentally plastics that's driven this microplastics.

0:24:56.880 --> 0:25:02.879
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, uh, but I'm leaning towards something else. No,

0:25:02.960 --> 0:25:07.480
<v Speaker 4>not that, not that canvas. Oh my lord, okay, Tucker,

0:25:08.240 --> 0:25:12.240
<v Speaker 4>tuck Tuck. Anyway, I have a feeling. It's that we

0:25:12.320 --> 0:25:15.919
<v Speaker 4>are like a deer population that senses that it's over crowded,

0:25:15.920 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 4>there's no food, and so we stop reproducing until you know,

0:25:19.359 --> 0:25:23.200
<v Speaker 4>the numbers are better. On line, we need wolves, more

0:25:23.200 --> 0:25:24.639
<v Speaker 4>wolves on the touns.

0:25:24.960 --> 0:25:30.960
<v Speaker 3>But it clearly is the thing, and it doesn't show

0:25:31.000 --> 0:25:33.640
<v Speaker 3>any sign of reversing. So we need to restructure society

0:25:33.680 --> 0:25:35.000
<v Speaker 3>around this at some point.

0:25:35.320 --> 0:25:36.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's you're right.

0:25:36.600 --> 0:25:39.800
<v Speaker 4>Nobody talks about what we're talking about but us. I'm

0:25:39.800 --> 0:25:42.680
<v Speaker 4>looking at some of the demographers and experts being quoted

0:25:42.680 --> 0:25:46.760
<v Speaker 4>in this article, and here's a typical person. Wendy Manning,

0:25:46.760 --> 0:25:50.040
<v Speaker 4>demographer Bowling, Green State University quote. People are waiting longer

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:52.480
<v Speaker 4>to enter parenthood and probably want to make sure that

0:25:52.560 --> 0:25:55.320
<v Speaker 4>things are said in their lives before they do so

0:25:55.359 --> 0:25:57.360
<v Speaker 4>there might be a lot of uncertainty, and that might

0:25:57.400 --> 0:26:00.359
<v Speaker 4>not be good for a society in general. Those things

0:26:00.440 --> 0:26:06.000
<v Speaker 4>are true, but they were never a factor in having

0:26:06.040 --> 0:26:11.240
<v Speaker 4>children prior to now. No, it could be I don't know.

0:26:11.280 --> 0:26:14.040
<v Speaker 4>There's so many different possible explanations, but it could be

0:26:14.080 --> 0:26:16.720
<v Speaker 4>what I'm always harping about, which is we are getting

0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:19.480
<v Speaker 4>way more inputs all the time than human beings were

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:22.840
<v Speaker 4>ever designed to take in and we are overwhelmed. I

0:26:22.840 --> 0:26:23.879
<v Speaker 4>don't know, I don't know.

0:26:24.000 --> 0:26:27.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, I do know this, and this is annoying to

0:26:27.280 --> 0:26:33.160
<v Speaker 3>people who don't have kids, perhaps, but nothing I've ever

0:26:33.160 --> 0:26:35.840
<v Speaker 3>done in my life even comes close. I mean, it's

0:26:35.920 --> 0:26:40.720
<v Speaker 3>not even in the same ballpark, the same universe for

0:26:40.760 --> 0:26:43.760
<v Speaker 3>giving you a sense of purpose as having kids. So

0:26:45.400 --> 0:26:49.399
<v Speaker 3>it's like being a different human being having kids as

0:26:49.440 --> 0:26:50.560
<v Speaker 3>opposed to not having kids.

0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:56.760
<v Speaker 2>For me, correct, So what does that do to society?

0:26:56.880 --> 0:27:00.520
<v Speaker 3>If you have more of the other crowd that doesn't

0:27:00.520 --> 0:27:07.080
<v Speaker 3>have this particular you design everything in your life around it, right,

0:27:07.160 --> 0:27:09.320
<v Speaker 3>If you're not, I don't know what that does to

0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:14.280
<v Speaker 3>the economy or certainly our government programs that are built

0:27:14.320 --> 0:27:16.639
<v Speaker 3>on an expanding population that those don't work.

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:19.560
<v Speaker 4>And as always, don't take any of this as a

0:27:19.640 --> 0:27:21.760
<v Speaker 4>judgment of you as an individual. We don't give a

0:27:21.760 --> 0:27:24.520
<v Speaker 4>crap what you do, and I mean that sincerely. Live

0:27:24.560 --> 0:27:28.439
<v Speaker 4>your life however you see fit. We're dedicated small libertarians.

0:27:28.280 --> 0:27:29.800
<v Speaker 4>As your business is your business.

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:32.359
<v Speaker 3>Reminds me of a sein filled Comedians and Cars with

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:35.640
<v Speaker 3>Coffee where Jerry's talking to John Mulaney.

0:27:35.240 --> 0:27:38.080
<v Speaker 2>Who at the time was a big advocate of being

0:27:38.160 --> 0:27:39.359
<v Speaker 2>childless him and his wife.

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:41.960
<v Speaker 3>I'm not having kids, you know, no offense, And Jerry

0:27:42.000 --> 0:27:43.199
<v Speaker 3>Seinfeld said, you can't offend me.

0:27:43.280 --> 0:27:44.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't care what you think.

0:27:45.440 --> 0:27:49.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, beautiful, But anyway, I was just going to point

0:27:49.720 --> 0:27:55.640
<v Speaker 4>out that a lot of the explanations and rationales presented

0:27:55.640 --> 0:28:00.560
<v Speaker 4>in this article having to do with, you know, costs

0:28:00.560 --> 0:28:05.200
<v Speaker 4>of housing or getting your career started and traveling and

0:28:06.000 --> 0:28:10.200
<v Speaker 4>having nice stuff and blah blah blah, none of those

0:28:10.240 --> 0:28:17.439
<v Speaker 4>are incredibly powerful biological imperatives, whereas reproduction is. And the

0:28:17.480 --> 0:28:21.280
<v Speaker 4>fact that that stuff would trump an incredibly powerful biological

0:28:21.280 --> 0:28:26.679
<v Speaker 4>imperative is just something really, really big is happening. You

0:28:26.800 --> 0:28:31.640
<v Speaker 4>can't rationally decide to ignore if you're falling in love

0:28:31.960 --> 0:28:33.439
<v Speaker 4>unless there's something wrong with you.

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:38.680
<v Speaker 2>It's not a powerful biological imperative. It is the powerful

0:28:38.680 --> 0:28:41.560
<v Speaker 2>biological imperative. That's what all beasts are designed to do.

0:28:41.800 --> 0:28:43.760
<v Speaker 2>The only reason you continue.

0:28:43.240 --> 0:28:46.120
<v Speaker 3>Breathing is part of to keep you alive so you

0:28:46.120 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 3>can procreate. M Yeah, and we've decided we don't want

0:28:50.440 --> 0:28:52.600
<v Speaker 3>to for some reason.

0:28:52.680 --> 0:28:53.600
<v Speaker 2>So that's pretty.

0:28:53.400 --> 0:28:57.200
<v Speaker 3>Amazing, which will cause a massive redesign of society. Oh god,

0:28:57.240 --> 0:28:59.760
<v Speaker 3>I'd say I would like to at some point get

0:28:59.800 --> 0:29:02.400
<v Speaker 3>to the fact that Yale Law School has been booted

0:29:02.440 --> 0:29:04.760
<v Speaker 3>out of the number one ranking. It's held for a

0:29:05.080 --> 0:29:07.840
<v Speaker 3>very long time, more than thirty five years.

0:29:08.320 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 2>Now.

0:29:08.520 --> 0:29:12.760
<v Speaker 4>Your US News and World Report college rankings flawed. Everybody

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:15.440
<v Speaker 4>knows it. It's fine, we talk about it. But the

0:29:15.480 --> 0:29:20.440
<v Speaker 4>reasons they got booted out are interesting, and it absolutely

0:29:20.480 --> 0:29:23.520
<v Speaker 4>has to do with being woke. We'll see if we

0:29:23.560 --> 0:29:27.000
<v Speaker 4>have time for that. I thought this was interesting. Ford,

0:29:27.280 --> 0:29:32.440
<v Speaker 4>the Ford Motor Company, is hammering the Administration for relief

0:29:32.480 --> 0:29:36.800
<v Speaker 4>because tariffs have pummeled the F one, fifty oh and

0:29:36.800 --> 0:29:40.600
<v Speaker 4>and other American manufacturers. The large ones can lobby, the

0:29:40.640 --> 0:29:44.080
<v Speaker 4>small ones are just screwed. A lot of the stuff

0:29:44.120 --> 0:29:48.440
<v Speaker 4>that was tariffed are the inputs to the final assembly,

0:29:48.720 --> 0:29:53.040
<v Speaker 4>and the brilliance of the American corporations have now gotten

0:29:53.120 --> 0:29:56.040
<v Speaker 4>hosed because they can't get the aluminum, for instance.

0:29:56.200 --> 0:29:57.960
<v Speaker 3>You know, I was at a big, big bed store

0:29:57.960 --> 0:29:59.480
<v Speaker 3>the other day that we're going to start doing business

0:29:59.520 --> 0:30:01.400
<v Speaker 3>with here on the show, and they were talking about

0:30:01.400 --> 0:30:03.440
<v Speaker 3>how they had to adjust to the tariffs, and I thought,

0:30:03.960 --> 0:30:07.840
<v Speaker 3>all right, the tariffs, that whole thing. Yeah, if you're

0:30:07.840 --> 0:30:10.200
<v Speaker 3>a business person that actually had a real life effect

0:30:10.200 --> 0:30:13.120
<v Speaker 3>on you. It wasn't just a topic on cable news.

0:30:13.280 --> 0:30:15.480
<v Speaker 4>Right, and some of the costs have been spread around here,

0:30:15.520 --> 0:30:18.880
<v Speaker 4>there and elsewhere in a way that hasn't brought like

0:30:18.960 --> 0:30:22.800
<v Speaker 4>cataclysm or rampant inflation at this point. But it's it's

0:30:22.840 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 4>a serious problem. It's not helping.

0:30:25.920 --> 0:30:28.720
<v Speaker 3>Hey, Katie, we got a homework assignment for you. Can

0:30:28.760 --> 0:30:32.480
<v Speaker 3>you write down all those letters from that woman and

0:30:32.520 --> 0:30:34.640
<v Speaker 3>then try to look up what they all represent, because

0:30:34.640 --> 0:30:37.080
<v Speaker 3>I would like to know that the w.

0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:41.600
<v Speaker 4>M oh that was that was an I rollo. That

0:30:41.720 --> 0:30:45.360
<v Speaker 4>was an I roll, not a problem, Jack m m

0:30:45.480 --> 0:30:50.080
<v Speaker 4>I WG two lgbt q q I A plus.

0:30:50.280 --> 0:30:51.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, it's for.

0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:52.680
<v Speaker 3>The I have a feeling we're going to get a

0:30:52.840 --> 0:30:54.960
<v Speaker 3>great deal of entertainment out.

0:30:54.800 --> 0:30:58.640
<v Speaker 1>Of it, particularly Indigenous women and girls to s lgbt

0:30:59.160 --> 0:31:00.560
<v Speaker 1>qq I A plus.

0:31:00.880 --> 0:31:03.040
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, But that that was different. That like started right

0:31:03.040 --> 0:31:03.760
<v Speaker 4>in the middle of that.

0:31:03.880 --> 0:31:05.360
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, cuts off the beginning of it.

0:31:05.480 --> 0:31:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we needed the whole thing with the m m

0:31:07.720 --> 0:31:10.120
<v Speaker 2>oh oh oh oh wait a second play that again.

0:31:09.920 --> 0:31:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Michael, particularly Indigenous women and girls to s l g bt.

0:31:14.280 --> 0:31:17.440
<v Speaker 4>So that was that was the I double u g

0:31:17.800 --> 0:31:21.600
<v Speaker 4>Indigenous women and girls. But she skipped he it skipped

0:31:21.640 --> 0:31:26.240
<v Speaker 4>over the M M M before the I W two

<v Speaker 4>G s l g b t q r q I A.

0:31:28.520 --> 0:31:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Plus zero dollars to deal with the ongoing genocide of

<v Speaker 1>M M I W G two s l g b

0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:37.760
<v Speaker 1>t q q I A plus.

0:31:37.920 --> 0:31:39.840
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, how did you? How can you sit

0:31:39.880 --> 0:31:40.440
<v Speaker 4>back and watch?

0:31:40.760 --> 0:31:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Is it? Min mar?

0:31:41.920 --> 0:31:43.240
<v Speaker 4>I believe it is? Yeah, undersized?

0:31:43.480 --> 0:31:45.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, look at us. That's our homework assignment.

0:31:45.160 --> 0:31:47.040
<v Speaker 3>And uh, we'll get to that probably an hour two.

0:31:47.040 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 3>We got mail bag coming up. Stay here, boy, I

0:31:53.720 --> 0:31:55.880
<v Speaker 3>just read a great piece by Noah Rothman in the

0:31:55.920 --> 0:31:59.640
<v Speaker 3>National Review about what how the world could change if

0:31:59.640 --> 0:32:01.280
<v Speaker 3>we just that this is the way we're going to

0:32:01.320 --> 0:32:05.640
<v Speaker 3>do things having countries charge tolls for their waterways. This

0:32:05.720 --> 0:32:09.280
<v Speaker 3>could change the whole world very very quickly. Oh boy,

0:32:09.400 --> 0:32:11.520
<v Speaker 3>Maybe we'll get to that an hour or two. Yeah,

0:32:11.560 --> 0:32:12.360
<v Speaker 3>I love that topic.

0:32:12.400 --> 0:32:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Here's your freedom loving quotea today, sent along by Alert

0:32:15.040 --> 0:32:19.440
<v Speaker 4>listener Jeff and Hoggs Nipple, Tennessee Soun Incorporated. Don't look

0:32:19.480 --> 0:32:23.320
<v Speaker 4>for it on a map. It's from the Great Whig

0:32:23.400 --> 0:32:30.560
<v Speaker 4>Henry Clay. He said this in eighteen forty Misrepresentation, falsehood, bribery, forgery, perjury,

0:32:30.680 --> 0:32:33.800
<v Speaker 4>corruption of the ballot boxes have all been established upon

0:32:33.840 --> 0:32:37.480
<v Speaker 4>the members of that democratic party. When one party employs

0:32:37.520 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 4>such means, sooner or later in self defense and from necessity,

0:32:40.680 --> 0:32:42.520
<v Speaker 4>the other party will be tempted to appeal to the

0:32:42.520 --> 0:32:44.960
<v Speaker 4>sey arts, and the corruption of the whole mass will

0:32:45.040 --> 0:32:51.280
<v Speaker 4>quickly follow. Then farewell to liberty, or goodbye, sweet America.

0:32:51.280 --> 0:32:56.600
<v Speaker 4>As I've been saying through the ears mail bag, drop

0:32:56.680 --> 0:33:00.200
<v Speaker 4>us no mail bag at Armstrong and getty dot com.

0:33:01.000 --> 0:33:01.960
<v Speaker 2>These are out of ordered.

0:33:02.040 --> 0:33:03.600
<v Speaker 4>Dang it, where is it?

0:33:04.000 --> 0:33:05.880
<v Speaker 2>The courtrooms out of orders?

0:33:05.920 --> 0:33:09.239
<v Speaker 4>Good point, Tom, and Windsor writes a guy is on

0:33:09.240 --> 0:33:12.680
<v Speaker 4>the topic of AI versus real musicians creating music, My

0:33:12.800 --> 0:33:15.440
<v Speaker 4>only argument against your belief is that it's better to

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 4>have artists creating music versus AI. Is Billie Eilish's speech

0:33:19.360 --> 0:33:25.920
<v Speaker 4>of the Grammys. I welcome our computer overlords. Well played, Tom.

0:33:26.200 --> 0:33:30.960
<v Speaker 4>Let's see a number of emails about the woke nut

0:33:31.080 --> 0:33:34.320
<v Speaker 4>job Jennifer siebel Newsom, including this one.

0:33:34.640 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 2>Uh call me a fascist.

0:33:36.840 --> 0:33:39.800
<v Speaker 4>On the topic you're giving boys dolls visiting home my

0:33:40.360 --> 0:33:43.040
<v Speaker 4>folks home, I found a shoebox and my old matchbox cars.

0:33:43.240 --> 0:33:45.239
<v Speaker 4>I gave them to my daughter and she set up

0:33:45.280 --> 0:33:47.480
<v Speaker 4>a day at the park narrative. Friends were meeting for

0:33:47.520 --> 0:33:50.440
<v Speaker 4>a picnic. Someone twisted an ankle, but fireman because there

0:33:50.480 --> 0:33:53.200
<v Speaker 4>was a fire truck. We're at the park working out,

0:33:53.360 --> 0:33:56.360
<v Speaker 4>and an ambulance took the injured person to the hospital. Okay.

0:33:56.720 --> 0:33:58.760
<v Speaker 4>Two years later I gave my son the same box

0:33:58.760 --> 0:34:01.680
<v Speaker 4>of cars. He set up a multi car accident. The

0:34:01.720 --> 0:34:04.360
<v Speaker 4>fire truck got t boned on the way to the accident.

0:34:04.600 --> 0:34:07.960
<v Speaker 4>The ambulance also was struck as near the accident. The

0:34:08.000 --> 0:34:11.800
<v Speaker 4>scene was overturned cars burning vehicles in mass Mayhem, same

0:34:12.320 --> 0:34:18.320
<v Speaker 4>gene pool, same parenting, very different outcomes, same to us. Yeah,

0:34:18.440 --> 0:34:19.920
<v Speaker 4>oh my god, that's great.

0:34:20.320 --> 0:34:21.160
<v Speaker 2>Who's that? Ted?

0:34:21.320 --> 0:34:25.759
<v Speaker 4>Well played, Ted, well done? This is so perceptive.

0:34:25.840 --> 0:34:26.680
<v Speaker 2>J N. Wrights.

0:34:27.920 --> 0:34:30.440
<v Speaker 4>Guys, when you played that clip of Newsom's wife pitching

0:34:30.440 --> 0:34:32.719
<v Speaker 4>the idea that society's problems would vanish if we just

0:34:32.760 --> 0:34:35.040
<v Speaker 4>put more women in the room, I immediately thought back

0:34:35.080 --> 0:34:37.640
<v Speaker 4>to your Heaven on Earth discussion on the ang Extra

0:34:37.719 --> 0:34:40.560
<v Speaker 4>Large podcast from years ago. Heaven on Earth was a

0:34:40.560 --> 0:34:44.240
<v Speaker 4>book about socialism, specifically the part about those early communist theories,

0:34:44.360 --> 0:34:46.920
<v Speaker 4>the theorists who are so detached from reality that they

0:34:46.960 --> 0:34:51.200
<v Speaker 4>believed if you just organized society correctly, Conflict wouldn't just

0:34:51.200 --> 0:34:54.680
<v Speaker 4>disappear among people, but even in the natural world following

0:34:54.680 --> 0:34:57.960
<v Speaker 4>the global Communist Revolution, predators in prey would live in harmony,

0:34:58.120 --> 0:35:01.400
<v Speaker 4>pure delusion dressed up as infl actual insight. And the

0:35:01.440 --> 0:35:04.000
<v Speaker 4>similarity between that line of thinking in the first partner's

0:35:04.000 --> 0:35:07.480
<v Speaker 4>comments were striking same brand of crazy. If we all

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:09.840
<v Speaker 4>just buy into other cockammy ideas, then suddenly all of

0:35:09.880 --> 0:35:14.919
<v Speaker 4>society's problems melt away. It's not just optimistic, it's completely delusional. Yeah,

0:35:15.000 --> 0:35:18.080
<v Speaker 4>great comparison. I got to reread that book in an

0:35:18.160 --> 0:35:18.600
<v Speaker 4>hour or two.

0:35:18.680 --> 0:35:22.279
<v Speaker 3>Will nail down all those letters in the new LGBTQ

0:35:22.560 --> 0:35:25.920
<v Speaker 3>plus thingy so we all know them and can reproduce

0:35:25.960 --> 0:35:30.080
<v Speaker 3>them at will to our Marxist overlords. If you missed

0:35:30.080 --> 0:35:32.880
<v Speaker 3>the segment of the podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand,

0:35:32.880 --> 0:35:37.000
<v Speaker 3>a lot more on the way Armstrong and Getty
