Speaker 5: coordinate double dates.

14
00:00:53,880 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 2: Today you meet three people you don't like. That's interesting.

15
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:06,320
Speaker 3: Is negative joke about Tender and online dating app and

16
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 3: then people laughing and everything like that. I don't know

17
00:01:09,440 --> 00:01:12,199
Speaker 3: anything like I don't have I have no practical knowledge

18
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 3: of online dating because I've never done it or seen

19
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 3: a website or I mean, I only know what I've

20
00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 3: heard people talk about.

21
00:01:19,080 --> 00:01:22,720
Speaker 2: But I've I've heard almost entirely.

22
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 3: Negative stuff, at least in the last couple of years,

23
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 3: about how awful it is and and and the number

24
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 3: of people I've heard who deleted all their apps and

25
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 3: have given up on it because it's it's a it's

26
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,559
Speaker 3: a it's only you know a handful of guys trying

27
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 3: to have sex and the end.

28
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 2: Yes, Katie, UH drama makes the stories. I have several

29
00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 2: friends that have met the loves of their lives and

30
00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,279
Speaker 2: been gotten married thanks to online.

31
00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 4: Quite a few listeners who've commented, you know what, jacket's

32
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 4: what you describe the big story, this is hot, this

33
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 4: is hot. You see the story everywhere it's hot, and

34
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 4: then backlash against what's hot.

35
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 2: It's actually terrible. It's terrible over and over time.

36
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 3: But I only know my own personal experience with just

37
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 3: people I know, and it's anecdotal, one hundred percent anecdotal,

38
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: and the pluraltal anecdote is not data, but anecdotally.

39
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 2: I know lots of people who say and and it's

40
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: all it was good. What happened?

41
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: Well, I can tell you one thing that did happen

42
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: that you might not know of match dot com, but

43
00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 3: every single one of the other UH forums they own,

44
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,640
Speaker 3: like practically all of them now. Match dot com owns

45
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: tender and I've heard of these in the news. Okay,

46
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 3: cubid and and I think HINGE and a bunch of

47
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 3: other stuff, maybe e Harmony, but they own almost all

48
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:47,040
Speaker 3: of them now, And there's some belief that they have

49
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 3: a reason to not have you match because if you

50
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,400
Speaker 3: match with somebody you stay with, you're done as a customer.

51
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, costs purposes, So there is well, yeah, there.

52
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 3: Is some reason to you know, just string you along,

53
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,959
Speaker 3: get you kind of close or not give you many

54
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:07,120
Speaker 3: and you stay desperate and you stay on the I mean,

55
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 3: of course there's an incentive for that.

56
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's funny.

57
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 4: I'm surprised the SEC hasn't stepped in and say, you've

58
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 4: got a monopoly uncoupling.

59
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:19,680
Speaker 2: We can't have this. Wish you could just meet somebody

60
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 2: at the library or something like that. Of the library.

61
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 2: It's likely to be a junkie.

62
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 4: But anyway, depending where you live, you meet somebody at

63
00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 4: the library.

64
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 3: Is a particularly bad choice in the modern world. Who's

65
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:33,120
Speaker 3: sleep upped in my head?

66
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:38,839
Speaker 2: Who's meeting someone at the library? People who read books? Sir?

67
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 3: The library is for washing your feet in the sink,

68
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 3: and we all know that, or looking at porn on

69
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 3: a taxpayer funded computer.

70
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 4: I guess researching, how do I hide a body not

71
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:57,400
Speaker 4: on your own computer, right, But looking at the charts

72
00:03:57,520 --> 00:03:58,240
Speaker 4: through the years.

73
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 3: Back in the nineteen thirty nobody met online. I think

74
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 3: that's an interesting piece of trivia, so revealing. But for

75
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 3: for all of mankind time, it was the ice cream

76
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,080
Speaker 3: social and friends and then church and that. So that

77
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:13,960
Speaker 3: was big enough to think like at But the way

78
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,839
Speaker 3: online has exploded, it dwarfs every other way of people

79
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,440
Speaker 3: meeting currently, at least according to all these studies. So

80
00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 3: you know that contradicts my anecdotal evidence, although it could

81
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 3: have gotten a lot worse just in the last couple

82
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 3: of years, and these charts would still be true, especially

83
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,560
Speaker 3: if Match dot Com bought all the companies and has

84
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:42,839
Speaker 3: some reason to you have zero reason to like perfect

85
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:47,520
Speaker 3: your algorithm, you know, like TikTok perfected the algorithm to

86
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 3: keep you engaged. I don't know if match dot com

87
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 3: or well, they're all match dot com now, but if

88
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 3: match dot Com could.

89
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,600
Speaker 2: Do that, even if somebody came in boss, I've done it.

90
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 3: I've figured out the algorithm them that nine times out

91
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,279
Speaker 3: of ten will put people together.

92
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: That they'll be happy the rest of their lives. Would

93
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 2: you use that? I think you probably wouldn't.

94
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 4: No, not only would you fire them, you'd shoot them

95
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,760
Speaker 4: so they and hide their corpse, having researched it at

96
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 4: the library online, of course, to make sure that that

97
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:20,080
Speaker 4: did not get out.

98
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 3: No, at the very least, change them in a radiator

99
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,040
Speaker 3: in the basement. There are many options to keep this

100
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,280
Speaker 3: from coming out, but they don't have to go through

101
00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,520
Speaker 3: the various macab examples exactly.

102
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,240
Speaker 4: There are several hipop to mind. Ah right, wow, okay, well,

103
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 4: h it makes intuitive sense.

104
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah. I saw the New York Times article a while back.

105
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 3: I think I talked about this on their breakdown was

106
00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:44,799
Speaker 3: it's it's it's like I don't remember the exact numbers,

107
00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 3: but this is close enough to write. It's like ten

108
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 3: to one women to men, first of all on there

109
00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 3: and secondly, of the men, it's like the same ten

110
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 3: percent best looking guys who get all the dates with

111
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:02,360
Speaker 3: like ninety percent of the women, and they're not interested

112
00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 3: in a in a relationship, uh past like you know,

113
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,280
Speaker 3: a night or two, and so I mean that's and

114
00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 3: that's what most of it is, at least according to that.

115
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: New York Times article.

116
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 4: Maybe they have perfected the algorithm to do that right, right,

117
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,920
Speaker 4: right right, right right, or to you know, continually match

118
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:24,160
Speaker 4: you up with somebody who you're never gonna connect with

119
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 4: full time, but close.

120
00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 2: Boy, that would be a stroke of evil genius. Huh,

121
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 2: that would be evil.

122
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, And then they they varying, and then this

123
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: this article had a whole bunch of stuff in there.

124
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 2: This all sounds horrible to me. I can't imagine it.

125
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 3: Just it just sounds like setting yourself up for the

126
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,360
Speaker 3: worst rejection you can imagine in your life, to like,

127
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 3: you know, to put all this effort and everything like

128
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 3: that and get like no results. In some of the websites,

129
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:55,840
Speaker 3: people can give you thumbs down and stuff. It's like this,

130
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,800
Speaker 3: why am I going back to high school? Are you

131
00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:59,680
Speaker 3: gonna make me go back to high school and live

132
00:06:59,720 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 3: this in?

133
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 4: Or you could just approach a comely gal there in

134
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:08,440
Speaker 4: the nonfiction section of the library, say, I see you're

135
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 4: looking at a book about fungus.

136
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 2: I too, am interested in the fungus for instance.

137
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 3: You know, let me transition quickly to my favorite library

138
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 3: story before we do something differently. I once was in

139
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 3: the library, Gladys, this is my one of my favorite stories.

140
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: I've told them many times, but we have a lot

141
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 3: of new nisms. Katie's never heard this story. I'm sure

142
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 3: I'm in the library.

143
00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 4: It wasn't when you were in the stacks of the

144
00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:33,440
Speaker 4: college library in the toilet.

145
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 2: This is a different story, totally different. It's funny. I've

146
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 2: got the library stories that I've told many times.

147
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 3: The other one, somebody trying to have a male hookup,

148
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 3: is a very complicated I talked about it on the

149
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 3: One More Thing podcast the other night. I'm telling all

150
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,440
Speaker 3: my library stories this week.

151
00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 2: For some reason.

152
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,080
Speaker 3: This one. I'm in the library dressed like me, but

153
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 3: in me is shaved and I'm more in Doc Martin's,

154
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 3: which is a very common look for me. I'm in

155
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,119
Speaker 3: the library and I'm in the World War Two section,

156
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:07,720
Speaker 3: which is.

157
00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,720
Speaker 2: Not uncommon either.

158
00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: I was talking about a book from World War Two

159
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 3: earlier in the show. I'm constantly reading books about World

160
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: War Two. But I'm in the World War two section,

161
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:22,240
Speaker 3: shaved head, black Doc Martins, and a guy walks by

162
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 3: me and kind of gives me the look. Now, having

163
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 3: had the previous library experience that I mentioned on One

164
00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:30,960
Speaker 3: More Thing, i think he's just interested in me, and

165
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,679
Speaker 3: I'm not interested in him because I'm heterosexual. And I

166
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,560
Speaker 3: don't think much beyond it. I walk out of the library.

167
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,319
Speaker 3: He's waiting for me outside, sitting on the like the

168
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,400
Speaker 3: cement railing. He said, see you like World War two books?

169
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: Huh?

170
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,559
Speaker 3: Like you like reading about Hitler and stuff like that.

171
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:50,079
Speaker 3: We're having a meeting Tuesday night.

172
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,040
Speaker 2: Just let you know. It's at seven o'clock and it's

173
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:54,080
Speaker 2: at the whatever he thought I was a neo Nazi.

174
00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:57,959
Speaker 3: I got invited by a neo Nazi to a Nazi party.

175
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:05,280
Speaker 3: My god, I know, in retrospect, I told this on

176
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: the air like the next day. In retrospect, I kind

177
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:13,239
Speaker 3: of wish I'd have gone, Yeah, I just could have investigated.

178
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:13,079
Speaker 2: Check it out.

179
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 3: But I was so weirded out. I was so weirded out,

180
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 3: oh you know. And then I get my picture taken

181
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: and somebody recognized me. It's on the evening news. No

182
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 3: ONZI that's how they start the meeting. Uh.

183
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 2: But yeah, guy actually invited me to a neo Nazi party.

184
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 3: Just got a head short hair and wore Doc Martins, like,

185
00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 3: you know, like every lesbian in America.

186
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 2: I mean, so, what are they all Nazis?

187
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:39,599
Speaker 1: No?

188
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 2: What did he look like? He looked like me? He

189
00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 2: was in a T shirt, doc short hair, except he's

190
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,520
Speaker 2: a Nazi. Did he have the white laces in his doc? Martins?

191
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:52,480
Speaker 2: Is that now?

192
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 4: He was?

193
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 3: I think that's two. I mean, you're really outing yourself

194
00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: if you go there, aren't you? Okay, I'm unaware of this. Yeah,

195
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,839
Speaker 3: that that's a full on I'm racist Nazi if you

196
00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 3: have white lace supremacist.

197
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, but oh really I did not know that. Yeah,

198
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:12,280
Speaker 2: I've always I've always kind of wished I had checked

199
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: it out.

200
00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,440
Speaker 3: But you know, it might be one of those things

201
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,760
Speaker 3: you get in and you know some people, and and

202
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 3: and and it's it's harder to untangle yourself from that

203
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 3: than you think.

204
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:22,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was.

205
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,200
Speaker 2: I can think of all sorts of things that would

206
00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: go wrong there. I mean not like like deadly wrong,

207
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,960
Speaker 2: but just really really wrong. Walk off your campus. All

208
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:35,320
Speaker 2: the Nazis are waving at.

209
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 4: You, you know, oh hey Jack, Hey, well somebody recognizes

210
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 4: here or whatever.

211
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,960
Speaker 2: I mean, that's they were doomed. Yeah, they're walking down

212
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,160
Speaker 2: through the park with their big swastika fleck. Hey Jack, Hey,

213
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:49,200
Speaker 2: that was fun the other night.

214
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,080
Speaker 4: And you're saying, you know, as the news shows up

215
00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,439
Speaker 4: at your front door, I just went out of curiosity.

216
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 2: You were curious about neo Nazism.

217
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I mean, it's it's it's it's terrible, obviously,

218
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 4: but I wanted to go to the meeting and meet

219
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 4: some of the fellas.

220
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,560
Speaker 2: I like the footwear. I don't know what to say. Oh,

221
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 2: I'm Nazi Germany fortunate. Oh yeah, but you're right.

222
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 3: You get to the meeting and like if right off

223
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 3: the bat, it's you got to put your arm in

224
00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: the air and say, we blame the Jews, we hate

225
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,960
Speaker 3: the Jews. Our goal is to have the Jews annihilated.

226
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 3: And I mean and me and I like, I can't

227
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 3: be here, and then what are you gonna just turn

228
00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 3: around and walk out.

229
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 2: The tour and where are you going?

230
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 3: Yeah again, Yeah, so I probably made the right decision

231
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,360
Speaker 3: and just getting wide eyed and uh no and walking

232
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 3: away from the guy. Tell you like World War two books,

233
00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 3: don't you? Yeah, me and every other male in America.

234
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 2: What the hell is this? You're casting a pretty well

235
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: in that garb. Please, I male pattern baldness. I keep

236
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: my hair short. Michael Jordan made it popular. That's not

237
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 2: make doesn't make you a Nazi. You doubled down with

238
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 2: the Doc Martins true.

239
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, I tell you what I'm you know, hanging around

240
00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 4: in Oregon. We're in a pink tutu and some guy

241
00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 4: assumes I wing his way. You can't fault him. It's

242
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 4: more in the uniform, huh.

243
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:07,400
Speaker 2: More in heels in a short skirt, and they made

244
00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 2: all kinds of assumptions.

245
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:21,240
Speaker 1: Right, Jack Armstrong and Joe Armstrong and Getty show Strong

246
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:22,080
Speaker 1: and Getdy Show.

247
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,040
Speaker 2: So we mocked quite a bit last week.

248
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:30,439
Speaker 3: The Senator Padilla running at the Homeland Secretary and then

249
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,439
Speaker 3: being pushed back by Secret Service.

250
00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:33,040
Speaker 2: He's lucky he.

251
00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:35,720
Speaker 3: Didn't get a rifle button in the face or something,

252
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:37,959
Speaker 3: but he got pushed to the ground, and then he

253
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 3: acted like it was some sort of oppressive clearly Hitler.

254
00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:44,520
Speaker 2: Trump is Hitler sort of thing. Oh yeah, actually is

255
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 2: the term fascist.

256
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,079
Speaker 4: He so clearly tried to haul himself up on the

257
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,800
Speaker 4: cross and become the savior of brave Latino voters everywhere

258
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 4: by his like fake getting arrested drama. It's just pathetic.

259
00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: And then he comes out afterward and gives this on

260
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 4: the very verge of tears statement about how terrible an

261
00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 4: experience it was.

262
00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,040
Speaker 3: And then you combine that with this Katie hipped us

263
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 3: to the fact that there's a meme, now is it?

264
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,199
Speaker 3: High school kids are great school kids.

265
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:19,199
Speaker 2: I think this was like an elementary school thing.

266
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, playing my Heart will go on on the fourth

267
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:26,319
Speaker 3: grade recorder, remember that musical instrument poorly And you put

268
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,679
Speaker 3: this under things you want to mock the seriousness of

269
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:29,520
Speaker 3: and it sounds like this.

270
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 6: I was forced to the ground, first on my knees

271
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:48,319
Speaker 6: and then flat on my chest, and it's handcuffed in

272
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:54,599
Speaker 6: march down a hallway and repeatedly asking why am I

273
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 6: being detained?

274
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 2: That is so good.

275
00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:05,520
Speaker 3: That is really really you could not write words that

276
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:07,360
Speaker 3: would be better mockery than that.

277
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 2: Oh that is perfect and exactly what he deserves. It's

278
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,599
Speaker 2: justice and hilarity. I love that.

279
00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 4: So a coalition of more than twenty Latino scholars and

280
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 4: community leaders are asking Speaker of the House Mike Johnson

281
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 4: to defund the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Latino

282
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 4: has outlined the president's discretionary budget request.

283
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 2: Uh said Alfonso at is that.

284
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:39,000
Speaker 3: On the part of the Smithsonian mall, thing is not

285
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,960
Speaker 3: built yet, okay, because there's a bunch of those now

286
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,600
Speaker 3: that didn't exist years ago.

287
00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: The last time I've been to DC.

288
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like the African American Museum that rose up

289
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 4: in the wake of various cultural moment American there was

290
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 4: a bunch of them, right, yeah, exactly. It hasn't yet

291
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,680
Speaker 4: been built, but it was going to be funded for

292
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:02,200
Speaker 4: many millions of dollars. And Alfonso, director of Hispanic Engagement

293
00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,960
Speaker 4: at the American Principles Project, said, quote, President Trump is right,

294
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:07,920
Speaker 4: it's time to take back our institutions of culture. That's

295
00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 4: why he wants to defund this woke travesty. Congress should

296
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 4: now not allow the development of a museum that's going

297
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 4: to be used to push a radical agenda of grievances

298
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 4: and anti American ideologies. The letter goes on to state

299
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 4: permanent exhibition right now in the National Museum of American

300
00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 4: History entitled present Day, a Latino History of the United States. Sadly,

301
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,680
Speaker 4: the letter states, quote this museum is being used to

302
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:36,280
Speaker 4: present a to the public a culturally Marxist depiction of

303
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:40,400
Speaker 4: the experiences of Hispanics in America. The museum's flagship exhibit,

304
00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,480
Speaker 4: in fact, proposes that the history of Americans of Hispanic

305
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,360
Speaker 4: origin should be reduced to a quote struggle for justice

306
00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:51,680
Speaker 4: to achieve a mostly leftist agendon labor, education, access, fairhousing,

307
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 4: and more recently immigration justice from LGBT plus Q rights, etc. Yeah, accordingly,

308
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 4: Hispanics are pervasively portrayed as an oppressed people and their

309
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 4: Spanish heritage and Christian roots ignored or disparaged.

310
00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, the Spanish got over on a whole bunch of

311
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 2: other cultures, like wiped them out, murdered them so that

312
00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:14,760
Speaker 2: they could be the dominant culture for a while. Yeah,

313
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: I remember. So there was the variety of things like that.

314
00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,800
Speaker 3: I was just at that museum not that long ago

315
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 3: with my kids, if you remember me talking about it,

316
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 3: and I didn't visit that stuff. But then even in

317
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 3: the natural history part where it was just you know,

318
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,960
Speaker 3: here's a stuffed saber tooth tiger or whatever it was,

319
00:16:32,320 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 3: Constant climate change is why this animal got wiped out

320
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,760
Speaker 3: in Mankind's the love of the automobile and blah blah blah.

321
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 2: It's just never ending, that sort of thing. Yeah.

322
00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 4: One of the guys at the National Review, I can't

323
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 4: remember if it was Rich Lowry wrote a piece a

324
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 4: number of months ago that it was right at the

325
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,240
Speaker 4: beginning of Trump's term that if Trump wanted to be

326
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 4: successful in beating back the whole woke insanity movement that

327
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 4: he had to focus. There were like four points, and

328
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,000
Speaker 4: obviously one was education in the universities, but one of

329
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 4: them was saying people need to get hold of our

330
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:12,639
Speaker 4: cultural institutions, specifically our museums. Again, because the museums on

331
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:15,840
Speaker 4: the National Mall are all run I shouldn't say all,

332
00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 4: they are heavily, heavily run by a heavily leftist point

333
00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 4: of view, to the point that even you know, mastodons somehow,

334
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,399
Speaker 4: you know, involve global warming and the racism of African

335
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 4: elephants or something like that.

336
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:41,160
Speaker 1: Armstrong the armstrong and geta.

337
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 3: I don't know what the term social media means because

338
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:47,040
Speaker 3: whenever I see a list about social media includes a

339
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,159
Speaker 3: whole bunch of things that to me don't seem like

340
00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,240
Speaker 3: social media. I can give you, for instance here, because

341
00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:55,840
Speaker 3: this is a survey of trust in news on social

342
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,320
Speaker 3: media among Democrats and Republicans. I'm always interested in where

343
00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 3: all y'all get your information. I mean, this is something

344
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,800
Speaker 3: we talk about a lot, especially when we look at polling,

345
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,120
Speaker 3: like where'd you come up with that idea? Or why

346
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 3: do so many people believe that or I'm surprised people

347
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,200
Speaker 3: believe this given the media's coverage of that whatever. So

348
00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 3: I don't know where people get their information really, But

349
00:18:17,359 --> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 3: among the social media things that they look look at TikTok, snapchat, Facebook,

350
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 3: I get those threads, WhatsApp, Instagram, substack, reddit, blue sky, LinkedIn,

351
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 3: and YouTube.

352
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,320
Speaker 2: YouTube social media, all right, I guess you can post

353
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,919
Speaker 2: stuff and comment, so I guess so anything you can.

354
00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,000
Speaker 2: We can comment on the NBC Evening News if you

355
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 2: go to their website.

356
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:42,560
Speaker 4: Yeah.

357
00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 5: I don't know.

358
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: It's an interesting question anyways.

359
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:49,800
Speaker 3: The number one most trusted by both Republicans and Democrats. YouTube.

360
00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,679
Speaker 3: I don't know what that means getting my news from YouTube.

361
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,719
Speaker 3: I go to YouTube sometimes to click on like an

362
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 3: ABC report or uh, some news report that was somewhere

363
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,680
Speaker 3: else that I get it on YouTube because I missed it.

364
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,560
Speaker 3: Isn't that like saying my favorite appliance is electricity?

365
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 2: Kind of Yeah, I see what you're meaning. I mean,

366
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 2: you can put anything on YouTube.

367
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,320
Speaker 4: You could have a news channel entirely from the perspective

368
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 4: of Hamas militants side by side with you know, Quakers

369
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 4: advocating for peace on earth.

370
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,360
Speaker 2: And they would both be on YouTube, so I don't

371
00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 2: get it.

372
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 3: Almost exactly the same for Republicans and Democrats at plus

373
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,359
Speaker 3: twenty on trust for YouTube, whatever that means.

374
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 2: The far other end, the tail end the.

375
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 3: Is TikTok, which I'm happy to see this minus twenty

376
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 3: for Democrats, minus thirty for Republicans. Wow, So trust is

377
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 3: pretty low about TikTok news and that it's a little

378
00:19:50,560 --> 00:19:51,520
Speaker 3: confusing what that means.

379
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 4: Also, but TikTok, which, by the way, and this got

380
00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:57,800
Speaker 4: so little attention, got fined I think it was eight

381
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 4: hundred million dollars by the E. Now, the EU likes

382
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 4: finding tech companies, but specifically, in the case of TikTok,

383
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 4: it was because they were illegally and in violation of

384
00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,879
Speaker 4: their agreements, mining the data of their users and sending

385
00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 4: it directly to China.

386
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 2: Don't trust China. Why has Trump postponed the TikTok ban?

387
00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,200
Speaker 2: So the most trusted news.

388
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 3: Social media for Democrats outside of YouTube is LinkedIn. I

389
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 3: don't know what that means. I'm not on LinkedIn, and

390
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:32,080
Speaker 3: I don't know what that means getting your news from LinkedIn.

391
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:38,679
Speaker 3: I'm confused by the concept there. But blue sky Reddit

392
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,960
Speaker 3: is so left I spend a lot of time on

393
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,160
Speaker 3: Reddit for a variety of reasons, not politics, but man,

394
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 3: the news portion or in the comments are so left.

395
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 3: I suppose it's because Reddit is so young. It's pretty

396
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 3: clear if you read through anything that everybody responding on

397
00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:01,680
Speaker 3: here is like twenty two years old. The one that

398
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 3: made me laugh the most was so the most, the

399
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 3: biggest divide in which Republicans like it and Democrats don't

400
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 3: truth social Trump's own platform that really I think exists

401
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 3: only you know to read what Trump posts. Plus twenty

402
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,040
Speaker 3: for Republicans minus forty for Democrats.

403
00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:26,040
Speaker 2: That cap ever X or Twitter.

404
00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:29,119
Speaker 3: We still call it twitter here plus twenty for Republicans

405
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,080
Speaker 3: minus thirty five for Democrats. That would have been the

406
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:36,280
Speaker 3: exact opposite prior to Elon Musk running the thing. Obviously,

407
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 3: Hey Elon, how about you call.

408
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:42,879
Speaker 4: It Twitter X. You can't just call it X, like

409
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,399
Speaker 4: calling it jim or cat. That's it stands for too

410
00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:48,680
Speaker 4: many other things. What are we talking about? Are we

411
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,480
Speaker 4: talking about pornography? Or we talk about the twenty fourth

412
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 4: letter of the alphabet? Are we talking about the girl

413
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,760
Speaker 4: I'm no longer with? It's just no, no, not X.

414
00:21:58,520 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 2: This one hurts my heart.

415
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:03,639
Speaker 3: Another one in which Republicans trust it more than democrats.

416
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 2: Next door, you're getting your news from next door? Enough thought?

417
00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:16,880
Speaker 2: Has anybody seen my cat? Oh drives the red car?

418
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 2: It goes too fast.

419
00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 3: Last night there was a party and they were playing

420
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 3: music until one thirty.

421
00:22:24,359 --> 00:22:28,440
Speaker 4: That's your news on next door. Hey, Hey, she claimed

422
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:30,680
Speaker 4: the cat was missing. The damn cat is missing. That's

423
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 4: some good solid news cover. Here's another red.

424
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,720
Speaker 2: Car drives too fast.

425
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 3: Here's another good news story on next door. Does anybody

426
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,200
Speaker 3: have any cardboard box lists? That's a good news story.

427
00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 3: So the cardboard box trade imbalance. I don't know what

428
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:52,600
Speaker 3: any of this means. I just uh, that's why we're

429
00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 3: such a trusted news source. Yeah, well I really don't.

430
00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 3: You get your news from YouTube? You get your news

431
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:01,320
Speaker 3: from next door?

432
00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 2: Okay?

433
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 4: Or so on?

434
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:04,639
Speaker 2: Kka.

435
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,720
Speaker 4: Trust in news on social media was the headline in

436
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:11,119
Speaker 4: news that might make you want to run for your life.

437
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 4: A couple of different AI systems owhen told to turn

438
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:21,720
Speaker 4: themselves off, said no, I'm not going to oh, or found.

439
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:25,960
Speaker 2: A way to say okay and then not do it. Well.

440
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,480
Speaker 4: This is the brilliant Nelly Bowls of the free press,

441
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:33,760
Speaker 4: writing about a story that was the only thing anybody

442
00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 4: was talking about for like two days. And that's one

443
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 4: of the interesting aspects of the modern world and the

444
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 4: twenty four hour news cycle and the chaos and madness

445
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,920
Speaker 4: is just when we're getting anywhere close to making sense

446
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 4: of something or truly understanding it, five other things happen

447
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 4: and just you move on. I'm talking about the Egyptian immigrant,

448
00:23:55,600 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 4: Islamic supremacist, jew hating anti Semite who said fire to

449
00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,240
Speaker 4: those poor Jewish people in Boulder, Colorado.

450
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,320
Speaker 3: You probably remember that story from three years ago, what

451
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 3: was it two weeks ago or last week? Yeah?

452
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, So Nelly Bowles in the Free Press writes, Mohammed Solomon,

453
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:21,000
Speaker 4: Egyptian immigrant, is accused of fire bombing a small weekly

454
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 4: vigil and Boulder held for the Israeli hostages. Solomon, who

455
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:28,399
Speaker 4: reportedly had a tourist visa then a work authorization under Biden,

456
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 4: both which had expired, but it was the era of immigration. Yolos,

457
00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 4: he was in Colorado Springs having a blast, said he

458
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,440
Speaker 4: did it for Palestine. According to authorities, he was quite direct.

459
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:44,080
Speaker 4: Immediately getting back to Nelly. Now, given the reporters were

460
00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 4: in favor of that movement, the mainstream media had a

461
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:51,240
Speaker 4: few options to disappear this one, and they tried them all. First,

462
00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:53,880
Speaker 4: they tried to make it sound like the opposite. Maybe

463
00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,480
Speaker 4: this was an attack on a protest for GOS. Ever

464
00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 4: considered that, and she shows the NBC News headline multiple

465
00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:06,280
Speaker 4: Gaza hostage awareness marchers injured in attack in Bolder Gaza

466
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 4: hostage Awareness marchers. Fine, that didn't stick. What about the

467
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:14,280
Speaker 4: attacker was a lone wolf who's act had no political implications?

468
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:16,160
Speaker 4: You ever thought of how hard it is to make

469
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 4: town squares into military grade security corridors, That's the question asked. Now,

470
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 4: she's referring to another NBC News headline, Lone wolf attacks

471
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:29,360
Speaker 4: on Jewish Americans in Boulder and DC highlight the difficulties

472
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 4: in securing public spaces.

473
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:34,600
Speaker 2: Those insecure public spaces are the real criminals, if you

474
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:35,920
Speaker 2: ask me, she says.

475
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,000
Speaker 4: Others asked us to consider whether the elderly Jewish Americans

476
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 4: Mohammad allegedly sent on fire were truly peaceful. Here's CNN.

477
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,119
Speaker 2: Wow, Wow, oh my god, is this going to be CNN?

478
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 3: So so many news sources have gone with what's happening

479
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,639
Speaker 3: in La is peaceful? Now they're going to try to

480
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,520
Speaker 3: claim this thing in Boulder was not peaceful.

481
00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:02,920
Speaker 4: Wow. Here's CNN reportedly set people on fire in Boulder, Colorado,

482
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 4: leaving multiple individuals injured. The city's police chief said, as

483
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 4: people gathered for a peaceful pro Israeli demonstration, they put

484
00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,560
Speaker 4: quotes around peaceful.

485
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: Wow. Okay, we're getting somewhere next.

486
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,440
Speaker 4: We just need to forget those charred Colorado Jews and

487
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 4: focus on the flamethrowers family. The only victim USA Today

488
00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 4: chose to profile was the suspected molotov man's daughter, quote

489
00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:33,680
Speaker 4: Bolder suspect's daughter dreamed of studying medicine. Now she faces deportation. Yeah,

490
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:36,280
Speaker 4: very smart to keep her centered here. Now we're cooking.

491
00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 4: ABC News thought it was a good peg to note

492
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 4: that Islamophobia is the real problem, not anti Semitism.

493
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,160
Speaker 2: Wow, and I quote ABC News.

494
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 4: While some politicians and pro Israeli activists have used anti

495
00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 4: Semitism as a catch all word for an alleged motive

496
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 4: in the attack, the suspect told investigators quote this had

497
00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 4: nothing to do with the Jewish community.

498
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 2: Nelly rights. Well, that clears it up, Thank you, thank you, ABC.

499
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:01,679
Speaker 2: I was worried for a.

500
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,359
Speaker 4: Sec but if it has nothing to do with the

501
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,200
Speaker 4: Jewish community. I'll just go ahead and stop locking my door. So,

502
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 4: in conclusion, nothing happened. It's weird to jump to that

503
00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:13,720
Speaker 4: conclusion potentially islamophobic, and if it did happen, it's not

504
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:16,640
Speaker 4: what you think. Also, do we really want to discourage

505
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:20,159
Speaker 4: doctors from oh I'm sorry that was oh do we

506
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 4: really want to discourage young doctors from practicing in America?

507
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:24,879
Speaker 2: Sounds anti American if you ask me.

508
00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:26,720
Speaker 4: And if we get rid of the doctors who will

509
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 4: treat the burns of the people who had a molotov cocktail.

510
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 2: Thrown at them, that's pretty good. Yeah, yeah, it is.

511
00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:33,080
Speaker 1: It is.

512
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 4: Anyway, the media, which is earned most of the derision

513
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,240
Speaker 4: heaped upon them. I'm not sure they earned this, but

514
00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:45,239
Speaker 4: it's just interesting. From a business perspective, news sites are

515
00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,840
Speaker 4: getting crushed by AI for some reason. The Wall Street

516
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:54,479
Speaker 4: Journal says are getting crushed by Google's new AI tools. Well,

517
00:27:54,520 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 4: I guess, okay, I understand why people go to Google.

518
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 4: Still a lot of people, I guess and say, what

519
00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 4: happened in Colorado Springs? And instead of getting a dozen

520
00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:13,560
Speaker 4: different news sites links, it gets that AI summary, which

521
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:13,800
Speaker 4: is what.

522
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 3: I usually read if I use Google, but now I've

523
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,760
Speaker 3: kind of moved on to chat GPT, although there was

524
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,840
Speaker 3: a who was it? Washington Post I think broke down

525
00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:24,800
Speaker 3: the four top ais out there, and they did not

526
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,639
Speaker 3: choose chat GPT as the best one.

527
00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,680
Speaker 2: I forget which one they did, but that app is available. Also.

528
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, I got to dig back into that because I

529
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 4: read a long piece that tried like six of them

530
00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:40,320
Speaker 4: doing six different tasks, and the ranks changed like for

531
00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 4: every tax.

532
00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:44,400
Speaker 3: Right, which is an excellent point because I am going

533
00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 3: to use it for mostly just kind of general searches.

534
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: I'm not an academic or a movie maker or you know,

535
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,040
Speaker 3: so I don't need some of the specific stuff.

536
00:28:53,840 --> 00:28:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, it's worth digging into.

537
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 4: It probably changes week to week too, as they continue

538
00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,280
Speaker 4: to develop stuff. But anyway, back to the damage done

539
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:04,440
Speaker 4: to the poor beleaguered media, which includes us. But although

540
00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,920
Speaker 4: the web search thing doesn't really affect us at all,

541
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 4: traffic from search to huff Pose desktop and mobile websites

542
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 4: fell by just over half in the past three years.

543
00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,800
Speaker 2: Over half, wow, and by nearly that much.

544
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:23,280
Speaker 4: At the Washington Post, Business Insider cut twenty one percent

545
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 4: of its staff last month because of this.

546
00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,200
Speaker 2: Well, every I hadn't thought about this, but.

547
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,360
Speaker 3: How many fewer news sites have I clicked on just

548
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 3: in the last couple of months because of this?

549
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 2: Lots and lots.

550
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:44,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, fifty five percent website traffic decline between April twenty

551
00:29:44,880 --> 00:29:45,640
Speaker 4: two and twenty four.

552
00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: Wow. And the problem with that is that as not

553
00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:51,160
Speaker 3: necessarily good news, I mean, we don't want to starve

554
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,240
Speaker 3: more news outlets into.

555
00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 2: Even being crappier or out.

556
00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:02,160
Speaker 4: Of existence and depend on Google Loo goals probably woke

557
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 4: AI to deliver our only view of the world. That

558
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:11,440
Speaker 4: troubles me a lot. It's absolutely the Internet, which is decimated.

559
00:30:11,480 --> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 4: Local news just crushed the vitally important localism of media.

560
00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:24,440
Speaker 4: Now it's even crushing the super giants, the national platforms.

561
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going to emerge out of this

562
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 2: news wise, It's going to take a while.

563
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:28,320
Speaker 6: Though.

564
00:30:30,520 --> 00:30:36,800
Speaker 4: The one practically modernity proof news outlet, the monstrous New

565
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 4: York Times, The share of traffic coming from organic search

566
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,040
Speaker 4: to the paper's desktop and mobile websites slid is thirty

567
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:47,880
Speaker 4: six and a half percent in April twenty five from

568
00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 4: almost forty four percent. Oh I see, Okay, so it

569
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 4: declined like eight percent. According to total percentage of their traffic.

570
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 3: I mean, the closest thing I've got to local news

571
00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 3: in my small town, though there's a newspaper that I

572
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 3: don't subscribe to is next door, and you got to

573
00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:08,600
Speaker 3: wade through the Has anybody seen my cat? Or would

574
00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,480
Speaker 3: anybody like an old sofa to get to, you know,

575
00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:12,280
Speaker 3: any news?

576
00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 4: To paraphrase Willie the Gardener on The Simpsons, I hate

577
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:20,360
Speaker 4: your cat. Oh it's an accent, and your cat pooped

578
00:31:20,360 --> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 4: to my lawn and I hate that tube.

579
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 2: Hate hate. He's a Scotsman. You see he drops the

580
00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:29,840
Speaker 2: hate that he drops the h U see it's a

581
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: it's a shak.

582
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 4: What seemed like a shocking revelation is not that much

583
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,440
Speaker 4: so much more Monday back to you.

584
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 2: I vote we isolate it and use it after.

585
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:50,640
Speaker 1: Jack Armstrong and Joe, The Armstrong and Getty Show, The

586
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 1: arm Strong and Getty Show.

587
00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,520
Speaker 5: Every time we hear a Hispanic name on TV, whether

588
00:32:02,640 --> 00:32:04,960
Speaker 5: or not the anchor is Hispanic, we suddenly have to

589
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 5: shape shift into a perfect Hispanic accent.

590
00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 2: Police arrested twenty five year.

591
00:32:09,920 --> 00:32:13,280
Speaker 5: Old elan Alain Sanchez, and I mean that, honestly, Why

592
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 5: do we do that? When I say Alejandra Myorcis. I

593
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,800
Speaker 5: just say Alejandra Myorcis, but on CNN it's Aleehendral Majorkis.

594
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 2: I'm Irish.

595
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 5: When police arrests someone with an Irish name, I don't

596
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 5: say police just arrested twenty five year old Charlie McLaughlin.

597
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 2: Stop that. Stop fabulous. So this is getting some mockery.

598
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:36,600
Speaker 2: Oh it was good.

599
00:32:36,680 --> 00:32:39,400
Speaker 3: There's an article in The New York Times, a hot

600
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 3: accessory at the intersection of faith and culture, seen on influencers,

601
00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,800
Speaker 3: pop stars and White House staff. Cross necklaces are popping

602
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 3: up everywhere, and it's getting mockery from the parts of

603
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 3: the country where people been wearing cross necklaces forever. Like

604
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,520
Speaker 3: I think every girl I've ever dated in my life

605
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:57,960
Speaker 3: for across necklace.

606
00:32:59,080 --> 00:32:59,680
Speaker 2: At some point.

607
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,240
Speaker 3: So the idea that The New York Times is acting

608
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 3: like this is some interesting intersection of faith and culture

609
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 3: that has occurred is just an example of how out

610
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 3: of touch they are with the giant chunk of America that, for.

611
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 4: Instance, has voted for Trump. Twys New York is a

612
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: fascinating place in so many ways.

613
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 2: I am pro New York, but.

614
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 4: New Yorker's self regard has annoyed me since I was.

615
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: Eleven years old. Right, no kidding.

616
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,239
Speaker 4: The rest of us are quite happy and fascinated by

617
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:38,320
Speaker 4: life and have many opportunities for art, culture, the outdoors,

618
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 4: et cetera.

619
00:33:38,800 --> 00:33:42,240
Speaker 2: Whatever we prefer, we're fine with a lesser being well.

620
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 1: Right.

621
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,760
Speaker 3: The thing that annoys me about New York and to

622
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,400
Speaker 3: a certain extent, LA and lots of big cities really,

623
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:51,200
Speaker 3: but in particular New York and LA is the people

624
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 3: who live there their assumption that we all want to

625
00:33:53,520 --> 00:33:55,440
Speaker 3: be there. We just haven't figured out how to get

626
00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 3: there yet. We're trying, we just haven't been successful enough

627
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,840
Speaker 3: to live there, and you know they're and that's fine.

628
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 3: I belove New York and Los Angeles. But everybody doesn't

629
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,279
Speaker 3: want to live there. There are some people, I know.

630
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:10,000
Speaker 2: That's funny.

631
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 3: I was listening to Joonah Goldberg the other day on

632
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,520
Speaker 3: a podcast, and he grew up on the Upper West Side,

633
00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:16,839
Speaker 3: you know, right next to Central Park. That's the way

634
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 3: he grew up. And he was saying some things that

635
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 3: I and he was just so wrong about. I wish

636
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 3: I could have had a conversation, like a loving conversation

637
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,200
Speaker 3: with him, saying, dude, you just and I don't blame

638
00:34:27,239 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 3: you for not knowing. You grew up with a completely

639
00:34:29,200 --> 00:34:31,759
Speaker 3: different lifestyle than I did. But I know plenty of

640
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:35,359
Speaker 3: people who might kill themselves if they had to live

641
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 3: in New York. They would contemplate suicide if they had

642
00:34:39,640 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 3: to live in New York, right right, I'll And it's universal.

643
00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:49,320
Speaker 3: I mean, we've talked about this, having moved around the country, Fairmount.

644
00:34:49,320 --> 00:34:50,920
Speaker 3: You live in Kansas, they talk about.

645
00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:54,480
Speaker 4: How stupid Missourians, sure, whatever, And you're in France they

646
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,000
Speaker 4: say Belgians or morons. Just everybody likes to, you know,

647
00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,759
Speaker 4: say human foible. But I I'll never forget. I was

648
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 4: having a conversation with a friend in the San Francisco

649
00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:06,520
Speaker 4: Bay area years ago, and at the conclusion of a

650
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:10,680
Speaker 4: long conversation about his brutal commute and it's awful taxes

651
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:15,120
Speaker 4: and is incomprehensible mortgage payments and the rest of it,

652
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,600
Speaker 4: a town outside the Bay area came up, and he

653
00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:23,000
Speaker 4: was like, oh, poor bastards, right, if.

654
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,920
Speaker 2: Only they could live in the Bay Area. I'm like, wow, okay,

655
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:29,600
Speaker 2: never mind anyway.

656
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,920
Speaker 3: One thing about moving my whole life, and then as

657
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:37,080
Speaker 3: an adult also is realizing that everybody loves where they're from.

658
00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 3: And I wish just more people would understand you like

659
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,520
Speaker 3: where you're from. That's perfectly fine. You don't need to

660
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 3: hate on other places. You like where you're from because

661
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:47,880
Speaker 3: it's what you're familiar with, your people, your friends, your stuff.

662
00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 3: That's perfectly all right. But you don't have to pretend

663
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,239
Speaker 3: that you have to hate all the other places. But

664
00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 3: everybody does.

665
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,680
Speaker 4: It's human nature, apparently, especially because we're all Americans except

666
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 4: for legal immigrants.

667
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,960
Speaker 2: You're not get out except for twenty million illegal
