Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George
Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center.
Speaker 2: Jack Armstrong and Joe Getty, I'm.
Speaker 3: Strong and get en. He Armstrong and Yetty.
Speaker 4: Liberal women won't be friends with won't date a conservative man.
Speaker 4: It's not good for our society if you've replaced religion
Speaker 4: with politics, and we're becoming a post racial society, which
Speaker 4: is a good thing, but it's being replaced with this
Speaker 4: diploma divide where you have again, it's like arrogant, condescending
Speaker 4: group that says if you don't vote the way.
Speaker 2: We do, you're a fascist. You're hitler. You're hitler.
Speaker 5: Like I keep I've been saying this for years. You
Speaker 5: can hate Trump, you can't hate everybody likes him. It's
Speaker 5: half the country and they're not all bad people's politics.
Speaker 5: Isn't an extension of a person directly like that?
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's Sarah isgre of The Dispatch on Bill Maher.
Speaker 6: I didn't see the beginning of Bill Maher. I just
Speaker 6: read about it, and it said Bill Maher comes out
Speaker 6: and says, you know, we need to take a look
Speaker 6: at the way we're doing things to a silent, stunned audience.
Speaker 6: I don't know if the audience was silent and stund
Speaker 6: or not, but to that very point, you're a hitler,
Speaker 6: you're a fascist? Or wherever can I hear? Fifty nine
Speaker 6: Michael I thought this was pretty funny. I don't know
Speaker 6: if we'll need the whole clip, but this is from
Speaker 6: Face the Nation. Margaret Brennan talking to congressperson from California, Rocanna,
Speaker 6: fifty nine.
Speaker 7: Democrats and the Harr's campaign told them that the fate
Speaker 7: of democracy itself was at stake. Was that a cynical
Speaker 7: political tactic or if it's reality, what is the plan now?
Speaker 8: Bill?
Speaker 2: Margaret?
Speaker 8: I think what was at stake is the degradation of
Speaker 8: American democracy, the courseness of political discourse. She has when
Speaker 8: we're an idea that you have people who are undocumented,
Speaker 8: twelve million, who maybe subject to a violation of their rights,
Speaker 8: the issues about.
Speaker 6: Climate and the reversal on that.
Speaker 8: I've never said that you weren't going to have future elections,
Speaker 8: And I was never one of these people who said
Speaker 8: you're not going to have twenty twenty six or twenty
Speaker 8: twenty eight in one or two years. Donald Trump is
Speaker 8: going to be a lame duck. But I do think
Speaker 8: that we need to make sure we stand up for
Speaker 8: people's rights in this country.
Speaker 6: That's good in our so and that that is a
Speaker 6: really freaking good question for Margaret Brennan.
Speaker 2: It's surprising, and there should be.
Speaker 6: There's people's feet should be held to the fire on
Speaker 6: this so they don't say it again on either side. Look,
Speaker 6: you said that if Trump won, it was the end
Speaker 6: of democracy. So are you all going to try to
Speaker 6: pass legislation here in the last seventy days or you know,
Speaker 6: get a well regulated militia together. I mean, what's your
Speaker 6: plan based on what you said this is the end
Speaker 6: of the country or was that just talk? I never
Speaker 6: said what I meant by.
Speaker 1: Fascism was the degradation of the climate inded twelve million
Speaker 1: illegals you have, right, Yeah, yeah, okay, I mean Biden
Speaker 1: included Trump is gonna be in the Oval Office on Wednesday,
Speaker 1: and they're gonna do that thing that they do every
Speaker 1: four years.
Speaker 6: Well Trump didn't do it, but they could do that
Speaker 6: thing where Biden sitting there, Trump sitting there and they're
Speaker 6: shaking hands and smiling and talking about the peaceful transfer part.
Speaker 6: You just said the guy was hitler like a couple
Speaker 6: of weeks ago. If you actually thought he was Hitler,
Speaker 6: you would be trying to get some generals that would
Speaker 6: go along with you to arrest him.
Speaker 2: Right, one hundred percent.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I wish more people were called on that more often,
Speaker 1: and it would merely be you know, slightly frustrating and
Speaker 1: mostly amusing, were it not for the fact that, as
Speaker 1: we were discussing earlier, a certain percentage of folks bought
Speaker 1: that they believe that rhetoric and are now suffering friendships,
Speaker 1: ending family relationships, breaking families apart because they believed that
Speaker 1: the most insane of the rhetoric.
Speaker 6: I wish so somebody would make Oprah speak to it,
Speaker 6: Oprah who came out and said we want if Trump wins,
Speaker 6: we may not get to vote ever again. And it
Speaker 6: turns out Oprah got paid what a million dollars to
Speaker 6: give that speech, and it is one of the reasons
Speaker 6: Kamala Harris is so far in debt. So Trump's supporters
Speaker 6: like Elon doing it because he thought it was good
Speaker 6: for America, even get paid a dime. In fact, he
Speaker 6: risked billions of dollars by coming out on the stage
Speaker 6: with Trump, Oprah and Beyonce all these different people got
Speaker 6: paid millions to go on stage with Kamala. But anyway,
Speaker 6: somebody should ask, Oprah, So, if you believe that, what
Speaker 6: would you like your party to be doing right now again?
Speaker 6: Organizing militias or stockpiling weapons until you can get across
Speaker 6: the border because the fascist is about to take over
Speaker 6: or mass it my migration to Ecuador? Or was that
Speaker 6: just a bunch of crap to scare people into voting?
Speaker 6: And if it was, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, especially again because certain people believed it, the
Speaker 1: young and the impressionable and the soft headed.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So, on a fairly similar topic we mentioned last weekend,
Speaker 1: Kim Strassel of the Wall Street Journal wrote a great
Speaker 1: piece entitled The Landslide against the Media, and she mentions
Speaker 1: that among the narratives full of fantasy was the four
Speaker 1: year press assurance that Joe Biden was sharp as attack.
Speaker 1: She goes into the details and how any evidence to
Speaker 1: the contrary was labeled as edited, misleading.
Speaker 2: A cheap fake.
Speaker 1: Thanks for reminding us of that term, Jack. Oh, this stuff,
Speaker 1: you got to remember it to really be amused by it.
Speaker 1: But anyway, then it immediately turned to recast miss Harris,
Speaker 1: a presidential primary loser turned unpopular vice president as a
Speaker 1: political genius and the obvious savior of the Democratic Party.
Speaker 1: How that workout got this note from Louis that I
Speaker 1: think is terrific.
Speaker 2: He like I have just.
Speaker 1: Reread nineteen eighty four or will And one of the
Speaker 1: main themes of the book is how if there is
Speaker 1: no objective reality, the only thing that matters is what
Speaker 1: the party tells you, and you have to believe it,
Speaker 1: and you have to receive repeat it, or else you
Speaker 1: will be punished terribly. And he gives a couple of
Speaker 1: examples through the book, but the main and troubling takeaway
Speaker 1: from the very end of the book is that you
Speaker 1: have to find a way to double think where you
Speaker 1: accept the fact that instead of we're at war with
Speaker 1: Eurasia and allied with East Asia, well now they flip
Speaker 1: flop it, the party flip flops it, and you believe
Speaker 1: it completely in your head, even as you're reminding yourself
Speaker 1: you have to change.
Speaker 2: So you're aware that.
Speaker 1: You've changed, but you are in complete denial that you've changed.
Speaker 1: Your perception, your memories, that sort of thing. It's worth anyway,
Speaker 1: Lewis writes in the transition from Senile Joe to Kamala. Overnight,
Speaker 1: Kamala was recast as a brilliant, fearless visionary and this
Speaker 1: was the image presented to the nation from that point on.
Speaker 1: Since election Day, I've been watching progressives on cable news
Speaker 1: expressing their deep gratitude for Kamala's leadership, gushing over how
Speaker 1: she ran a flawless campaign, how impeccably she laid out
Speaker 1: her platform, how strong and brave she was to take
Speaker 1: on this near impossible task with only one hundred days
Speaker 1: to work with. A surprising number of these people literally
Speaker 1: cried on the air. And the thing is they genuinely
Speaker 1: remember it that way. Less than four months ago, Democrats
Speaker 1: were horrified at the prospect of Kamala Hers being their candidate.
Speaker 1: Yet now, like Winston Smith's neighbors honestly remembering Eurasia as
Speaker 1: an ally, progressives in the media honestly remember that they've
Speaker 1: always considered Kamala to be a dazzling intellect.
Speaker 6: Well, and to say it for the fiftieth time, with
Speaker 6: her own party, she didn't make it to Iowa in
Speaker 6: twenty nineteen with the most motivated of Democratic voters. They
Speaker 6: didn't like her enough to even get to the first contest.
Speaker 1: So where did this having come out of the gate
Speaker 1: like secretariat. So it's not like she wasn't able to
Speaker 1: gain enough attention or quite enough electricity. No, she came
Speaker 1: out of the gate like that's the person to watch.
Speaker 6: But you're right, So the interesting part of this is
Speaker 6: what made it flip in your brain that she was
Speaker 6: the second coming of Barack Obama and got rejected somehow.
Speaker 1: Speaking of things we've said more than once, the dishonesty
Speaker 1: and cynicism I can deal with, I know how to
Speaker 1: deal with that. It's people who are nuts who've actually
Speaker 1: convinced themselves of this, or who are actually like writing
Speaker 1: letters to their parents saying I will never speak to
Speaker 1: you again because you voted for breaking up thirty year
Speaker 1: friendships over that. That is a level of crazy. I'm
Speaker 1: not quite sure what to do with or about. I
Speaker 1: seriously mourn for you people that this has happened to
Speaker 1: your friends and relatives and all. I would you know what,
Speaker 1: I ought to offer my services for a very reasonable fee. Hey,
Speaker 1: baby needs new shoes, you hear me. Let me talk
Speaker 1: to your relatives. I'll turn them around in ten minutes.
Speaker 2: I mean I'm not going to convince.
Speaker 1: Them to vote for Trump, but I will deprogram them.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty confident.
Speaker 6: Maybe an outside party could do that. But I was
Speaker 6: about to say, if your friends come to you and say,
Speaker 6: oh my god, you voted for Trump, I'm afraid I
Speaker 6: can't talk to you anymore. I don't think there's anything
Speaker 6: you could say to them. They're off the rockers.
Speaker 2: That's why my services are somewhat expensive.
Speaker 6: Well, maybe a third party could come in and say, so,
Speaker 6: what specifically is that you're upset about.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, fifteen minute sessions can be five thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: But to save a friendship, to save a family, folks,
Speaker 1: that's a bargain rate. Subscribe to my monthly newsletter and
Speaker 1: I'll give you twenty percent off.
Speaker 6: Anyway, And are there are examples of it happening the
Speaker 6: other way anywhere in the country or is this a
Speaker 6: one sided thing?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: There are probably some you know, angry hardcore magaites somewhere
Speaker 1: out in the hinterlands.
Speaker 2: Who have but I doubt it for the reasons we've discussed.
Speaker 6: I haven't heard of any stories. I've only heard stories
Speaker 6: on one side.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hey, progressive America, We conservatives We are well aware
Speaker 1: of your opinions. We hear them every single day from
Speaker 1: the media and education and entertainment.
Speaker 6: I think that's fine.
Speaker 2: We don't think you're right, but it's fine. It doesn't
Speaker 2: bother me.
Speaker 6: I think that is the difference. We have to confront
Speaker 6: that on television and from all our teachers in school,
Speaker 6: just everybody, our whole lives.
Speaker 2: He just been in the workplace.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you just get used to being surrounded by people
Speaker 6: that disagree with you. You don't think, oh my god,
Speaker 6: you're a Democrat. Well I can't speak to you again.
Speaker 1: When a lot of those people who disagree with us
Speaker 1: are really nice folks, and I'm happy to be friends anyway.
Speaker 1: I wanted to lead up to this. This is also
Speaker 1: from the Wall Street Journal, but they mentioned that Trump
Speaker 1: sat down with Joe Rogan and Drew you know, millions
Speaker 1: of views on YouTube and Spotify and other platforms. Rogan
Speaker 1: got a shout out in Trump's victory celebration. But they
Speaker 1: mentioned what the twenty twenty four presidential race made clear,
Speaker 1: among other things, is a new media landscape has emerged.
Speaker 1: Hello and the traditional gatekeepers of political discourse. TV networks
Speaker 1: and newspapers are shrinking in influence as Americans turn elsewhere
Speaker 1: for their information, and they mentioned among youngsters it's all
Speaker 1: about the TikTok and Instagram and stuff like that. Elon
Speaker 1: Musk takeover of X which absolutely was a wonderful thing
Speaker 1: for free speech and intelligent discourse. But I wanted to
Speaker 1: get to this the old stars. I mean, the new
Speaker 1: media of which we are part thankfully, is great and
Speaker 1: that's a big story.
Speaker 2: But the old media. I hadn't realized how bad it was.
Speaker 1: The three main cable channels were down thirty two percent
Speaker 1: since twenty twenty. They lost twenty million people, with CNN
Speaker 1: losing almost half of its audience since twenty twenty.
Speaker 6: That's amazing. I just saw James Carvell say defund the
Speaker 6: police were the three stupidest words in the English language.
Speaker 6: That is why a lot of that has happened. I mean,
Speaker 6: you're right, you treated things like defund the police and
Speaker 6: dudes in women's sports and a bunch of things that
Speaker 6: like nobody agrees with, like they were perfectly reasonable positions.
Speaker 1: I don't want to rush through this. I will explain
Speaker 1: why defund the police will echo through history, coming.
Speaker 6: Up, history, history, history, history, just like that it's the
Speaker 6: echoing right there. Yes, much more on the way in
Speaker 6: text line four one, five, two nine kftc.
Speaker 2: Armstrong Hengetti and here and.
Speaker 5: Here in LA proposition thirty six pass. This was this
Speaker 5: was the one that said shoplifting, which we'd made just
Speaker 5: a misdemeanor, is now a felony again. Yeah, yeah, common says.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: People in this town, even liberal LA said, you know what,
Speaker 5: here's an idea. Instead of locking up the toothpaste, how
Speaker 5: about we lock up the shoplifters.
Speaker 6: No, you know this glorious applause his liberal audience in
Speaker 6: Los Angeles. Yeah, dang it. How do we get so
Speaker 6: far off track sometimes? Or how do we allow a
Speaker 6: handful of people to drag us so far off track sometimes?
Speaker 6: I am here to tell you.
Speaker 1: So. He's talking about Prop thirty six in California, the
Speaker 1: firing of George Gasconne in LA, the awful Pamela Price
Speaker 1: in the Bay Area. These woke Marxist das George Floyd
Speaker 1: was the greatest thing that ever happened to the neo Marxists,
Speaker 1: and if they could create another one somehow they would.
Speaker 2: I believe that to my bones.
Speaker 1: The moral outrage at the scene of the cop kneeling
Speaker 1: on the guy's neck, and the guy ended up dead.
Speaker 1: And yes, I'm familiar with the coroner's reports and the
Speaker 1: drugs and the rest of it, that's not my point.
Speaker 2: Just to go with it.
Speaker 1: That was the moment the neo Marxists said, we can
Speaker 1: win this.
Speaker 2: Now is the time. And it was the perfect nexus
Speaker 2: of hardcore.
Speaker 1: Activists who want to overthrow the system through something as
Speaker 1: looney tunes as defunding the police, for instance, meeting the
Speaker 1: moral outrage of a lot of like you know, good hearted,
Speaker 1: fairly naive young people who were so outraged by the
Speaker 1: death of George Floyd that when people came to them
Speaker 1: with a definitive, simple solution that would end racism and
Speaker 1: end brutality and just to bring on, you know, a
Speaker 1: heavenly new world, they jumped on board.
Speaker 2: And so it was the.
Speaker 1: Energy of the hardcore activists who knew precisely what they
Speaker 1: were doing, making use of the energy of the masses
Speaker 1: of people and getting something as crazy as to fund
Speaker 1: the police, going to the tune to the point that
Speaker 1: you know, Nike and all sorts of other American corporations
Speaker 1: all of a sudden went full on woke and we're
Speaker 1: throwing as many millions of dollars as it took not
Speaker 1: to be caught up in the wood chipper of if
Speaker 1: you dare resist us, we will end you, will ruin you.
Speaker 1: That was the peak of the mountain for them. And
Speaker 1: you look at defund the police. I mean, nobody thinks
Speaker 1: that's a good idea at this point. So how come
Speaker 1: everybody thought it was such a great idea thirty years ago? No,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, three fing years ago.
Speaker 6: Come on, it's disturbing on how a really crazy idea
Speaker 6: that the vast majority of people realizes a crazy idea
Speaker 6: can end up being something you dare not speak out against.
Speaker 1: I years and years ago heard the expression the voice
Speaker 1: of reason against the howling mob, and was made to understand, Yeah,
Speaker 1: you can have the best arguments of the world, but
Speaker 1: if the mob's whipped up, you don't stand a chance
Speaker 1: you will be killed. Thanks to the Internet, we have
Speaker 1: the advent of the global mob or the national mob.
Speaker 6: You shouldn't have been able to lose your career for
Speaker 6: saying all lives matter, but people did. It's horrifying.
Speaker 2: Armstrong and Getty.
Speaker 6: Locks waiting for the snap placement is down.
Speaker 2: Let's just take us blood. That's blood. It's blood.
Speaker 3: That's just They're gonna stay undefeited.
Speaker 6: Has there ever been a worse nine to ohero team
Speaker 6: than the Kansany Chiefs, who barely win like every game
Speaker 6: going back to the beginning of the playoffs last year
Speaker 6: against some.
Speaker 1: Fairly mediocre teams too. As I recall, I haven't had
Speaker 1: a chance to watch that much, but.
Speaker 6: I've watched a lot, and uh yeah, playing down to
Speaker 6: their opponent's level, but squeaking it out is their thing.
Speaker 2: That's why they play the games.
Speaker 6: So I was reading Mark Alprin's newsletter today. Now I
Speaker 6: keep hoping thinking that most of left leaning media, which is,
Speaker 6: you know, all your mainstream media, has learned some sort
Speaker 6: of lesson and we're all going to get It'll be
Speaker 6: better for all of us if we get more straight reporting.
Speaker 6: But helping writes this today, as for the Democrats dominant
Speaker 6: media allies, as long as the Washington Post and others
Speaker 6: are still routinely and blithely writing false stuff like this
Speaker 6: good luck in your senior year changing course, And I thought, okay, oh,
Speaker 6: let me click on this article and see what it is.
Speaker 6: And it turns out the Washington Post is their first line?
Speaker 6: Is President elect Donald Trump who signaled he would become
Speaker 6: a dictator on day one? Blah blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 6: I don't even need to read any more than that.
Speaker 2: Nope, Nope, that's enough. Wow.
Speaker 6: Wow, did you realize that that's not even close to accurate?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 6: You're opening line, you're opening theory everything. It's completely just
Speaker 6: what do you believe him? Are you trying to convince
Speaker 6: other people? What is it?
Speaker 2: Well? Exactly?
Speaker 1: Yeah, never mind winning the argument or what have you.
Speaker 1: I just I would like to know for my personal
Speaker 1: you know, satisfaction. Did the person who wrote that line
Speaker 1: know that they were repeating a falsehood? Or did they
Speaker 1: do it intentionally? Or are they Winston Smith like? Have
Speaker 1: they internalized and begun to believe their own lies?
Speaker 6: It's almost got to be that it almost has to
Speaker 6: be at this point.
Speaker 2: Well, that's that's strange and disturbing.
Speaker 6: Yeah, i'd say so. And I always wonder and stuff
Speaker 6: like that, Do I am I doing that? And what
Speaker 6: am I doing that about? Right now? I would love
Speaker 6: to know that.
Speaker 1: It's our original air names, by the way, strange and disturbing.
Speaker 1: We're trying to take over for art bell a lot
Speaker 1: of specters and aliens and hauntings and that sort of stuff.
Speaker 6: Really, the toaster is speaking to you, what is it saying?
Speaker 6: We'd take lots of calls late at night. So this
Speaker 6: is from a guy named Corey DeAngelis. He is a
Speaker 6: got a couple hundred thousand followers on Twitter, and he's
Speaker 6: a school choice advocate and he's involved in that whole world.
Speaker 6: He tweeted this out yesterday. A couple of people send
Speaker 6: it to me and I forgot about it. I'm glad
Speaker 6: we're getting on Thanks for finding it. Katie Breaking, a
Speaker 6: California public school teacher, had a melt down in class
Speaker 6: on election day. Some kid there apparently whipped out their
Speaker 6: phone and recorded it. He lashed out at a student
Speaker 6: because you're not gonna be able to hear all this clearly,
Speaker 6: so let me read this and then we'll play it.
Speaker 6: He lashed out at a student for wearing a Trump hat,
Speaker 6: called Christians a bunch of losers for voting for him,
Speaker 6: called him a child, molista, and rapist, and more so.
Speaker 6: This is the teacher in the classroom in California.
Speaker 3: Which wama be.
Speaker 9: Trump the rapist Tago Batri freak and seat. Now go
Speaker 9: take that, he said, securely, that boy who has a
Speaker 9: Trump Hound, and I'm.
Speaker 6: Not going to I'll fire the hell on me. I'm sorry,
Speaker 6: I'm sorry beating rape them? And well, I would find
Speaker 6: that hard to believe if I didn't know for a
Speaker 6: fact people who have that point of view. Yeah, I
Speaker 6: mean the the New York Times columnists that I read
Speaker 6: from last week who, after became clear Trump one went
Speaker 6: up to his sleeping three year old's crib and held
Speaker 6: her hand and said, I will, Daddy will protect you
Speaker 6: against this man. What are you freaking talking about?
Speaker 1: How about all the criminals that the left releases onto
Speaker 1: the streets, the actual rapist, no kidding, the guy who's
Speaker 1: many have come across our border uninvited. Yeah, yeah, the
Speaker 1: guy who's beaten people on the heads and raped people
Speaker 1: and gotten caught over and over again that they let
Speaker 1: out the same day.
Speaker 6: Aren't you worried about that person? But so he he says,
Speaker 6: they're in the public schoolroom there in California. He calls
Speaker 6: the office. I have somebody here in a Trump hat
Speaker 6: and I'm not doing this today. I don't care. Fire me. Okay,
Speaker 6: you're a lunatic. You are crazy. Yeah, And we've talked
Speaker 6: throughout the show about people we know who've had friendships end,
Speaker 6: long time close friendships end because the friends found out
Speaker 6: that they voted for Trump, which can be all kinds
Speaker 6: of different reasons. You could love the Trump the man
Speaker 6: and everything he does. You could really dislike Trump and
Speaker 6: everything he does. But prefer that direction to Kamala Harris
Speaker 6: for instance.
Speaker 2: Right, sure, of course.
Speaker 1: So my youngest is nearing the finals of her first
Speaker 1: semester in law school, and she goes through what she's
Speaker 1: learning with me sometimes, because when you explain something to
Speaker 1: somebody else, it really helps to you know, set it
Speaker 1: in your mind. And I'm the perfect foil because I
Speaker 1: love hearing it. I've got my mind is made for it.
Speaker 1: I should have been a lawyer. Anyway, we're talking about
Speaker 1: the ins and outs of certain aspects of law. I
Speaker 1: won't get into specifics, but I find myself wondering if,
Speaker 1: for the sake of the argument, some person or group
Speaker 1: of people, for their own material gain, misled one or
Speaker 1: more people systematically and intentionally over a long period, and
Speaker 1: that fraudulent rhetoric those claims caused material damage to that
Speaker 1: other person's life, emotional and material damage.
Speaker 2: Would that be actionable civilly.
Speaker 6: That's an interesting one.
Speaker 1: That guy loses his career and he realizes he's been
Speaker 1: brainwashed by the knowingly dishonest and hyperbolic arguments of the last.
Speaker 6: Similar to suing social media for your kid's suicide or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a stretch, but it's not completely out of
Speaker 2: the realm.
Speaker 1: I mean, it's protected by the First Amendment obviously, but
Speaker 1: we're not talking about criminal action. We're talking about civil action.
Speaker 6: Well, I it would be good on all sides, because
Speaker 6: both sides claim the other side is going to end America.
Speaker 6: But Oprah Winfrey's standing up there last week getting a
Speaker 6: check for a million dollars to stand up there and
Speaker 6: say there will never be another election if Trump wins.
Speaker 2: You know that's not true.
Speaker 6: Go ahead.
Speaker 2: If we don't.
Speaker 9: Show up tomorrow, it is entirely possible that we will
Speaker 9: not have the opportunity to ever cast a ballot again.
Speaker 6: I wonder if she had lawyers to go over that.
Speaker 1: Michael, Michael, you let me down. I really wanted to
Speaker 1: hear the cash register right afternoon.
Speaker 6: W she had lawyers go over that to make you
Speaker 6: make sure you put in the entirely possible. Give us
Speaker 6: a little wiggle room because it's just crap. That's just crap,
Speaker 6: And a lot of people believe in Oprah and that
Speaker 6: think that, Well, she wouldn't say that she's being paid
Speaker 6: to be up there for one thing.
Speaker 1: Wow, you know, I don't worry about the left ending
Speaker 1: America because.
Speaker 2: Ah, as long as.
Speaker 1: A huge percentage of those of us on the right
Speaker 1: side of the isle are armed.
Speaker 2: Good luck.
Speaker 6: Right. One of the great trolls ever that Trump said
Speaker 6: he will bail out Kamala's campaign for being in debt.
Speaker 6: But if you haven't heard these numbers yet, Kamala raised
Speaker 6: over a billion dollars. She spent well, she raised one
Speaker 6: point zero zero three billion, which is the most anybody's
Speaker 6: ever raised run for president. She spent one point thirty
Speaker 6: seven billion. She spent almost six hundred million on staff.
Speaker 6: Trump spent ten million on staff, and one all seven
Speaker 6: swing states and almost every demographic. He spent ten million
Speaker 6: dollars on staff. She spent six hundred million.
Speaker 1: Boy from the Department of putting lipstick on a pig
Speaker 1: and entering it into Miss America.
Speaker 6: We finished sixth. Well, that's because it's a pig.
Speaker 2: It's it's a hog. You see the dress. Do you
Speaker 2: know what we spent on that dress for the pig? Yes?
Speaker 2: And the bikini.
Speaker 1: You think it's easy getting his swine into a bikini,
Speaker 1: it's not.
Speaker 2: It thrashed around like crazy. It bit me. Look, it
Speaker 2: broke the skin.
Speaker 6: Wow.
Speaker 1: So they've got like three hundred and some million dollars
Speaker 1: in campaign debt three time.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm going to do that big deal.
Speaker 2: Wow, I've got.
Speaker 1: A really wildly inappropriate joke. I feel like, let me
Speaker 1: go with this version of it at one hundred bucks
Speaker 1: a throw. That would take a very long time to
Speaker 1: pay off.
Speaker 6: Oh, I hear where you're going. That's what passes for
Speaker 6: humor in your brain. Flip four real quick, yeh, poor
Speaker 6: real quick. I don't know clip for it, but we'll
Speaker 6: hear it.
Speaker 2: That had to hurt for Kamala.
Speaker 5: I mean, I mean, the whole thing was must have
Speaker 5: been very painful. And that said, they say she saw
Speaker 5: the writing on the wall, but we're on ten o'clock
Speaker 5: at night, an electro night. She called McDonald's as she
Speaker 5: should get her old job.
Speaker 1: I saw that he couldn't get through his own punchline
Speaker 1: because he was cracking up.
Speaker 6: That's pretty funny. We will any strong. Next Shot celebrated
Speaker 6: his fifty fifth birthday in jail this week, and if
Speaker 6: what they say about prison is true, he celebrated the
Speaker 6: same way he always does. Oof.
Speaker 2: Oof.
Speaker 6: So I was in Vegas over the weekend. I don't
Speaker 6: drink anymore, but I did to stand outside this bar
Speaker 6: because I wanted to watch it, and I took some
Speaker 6: pictures that featured Tipsy the robot, your funny name for
Speaker 6: your robot. It was a big robot bartender that made
Speaker 6: people's drinks and you'd go up on like an iPad
Speaker 6: and you'd type in what drink he wanted, and Tipsy
Speaker 6: made the drinks very fast. And it had all these bottles,
Speaker 6: you know, like you do bars. Sometimes you have bottles
Speaker 6: upside down from the ceiling. But anyway, Tipsy the robot
Speaker 6: would just go around and put the cup under there
Speaker 6: and shake it up and put in the ice or
Speaker 6: whatever and hang you the drink really fast. And I thought,
Speaker 6: that'll probably be ninety percent of bartenders at some point.
Speaker 2: I don't know why not. They didn't talk to you, but.
Speaker 1: Right, oh yeah, wow, is there a home version of that?
Speaker 6: You know? I suppose every once in a while it
Speaker 6: grabs somebody by the throat and lifts them up.
Speaker 2: Off the floor.
Speaker 6: But just watching that, you know, not bars or whatever,
Speaker 6: just burgers and French fries and pizza and drinks, and
Speaker 6: robots are going to be doing it all over the place. Well,
Speaker 6: the one I saw the robot at the Sphere they
Speaker 6: have one of the best. I talked about this when
Speaker 6: I was at the Sphere over the summer. They have
Speaker 6: one of the best AI humanoid robots that exist on
Speaker 6: the planet. And it stands and talks to people and
Speaker 6: asks you where you're from, and engages you in conversation,
Speaker 6: and it's all AI and robot and it's disturbing.
Speaker 1: Well, and it's using its infrared eyeballs to appraise how
Speaker 1: good your kidneys are for transplants too. What man, what
Speaker 1: the robot need kidneys for to sell them for its overlords?
Speaker 1: Laz I was speaking of technology sixty minutes last night.
Speaker 1: I found this at least somewhat interesting. The uh there's
Speaker 1: a company in Italy near where they get all the
Speaker 1: best marble in the world.
Speaker 2: I can't remember the name of it.
Speaker 1: I'm not really into the stuff, but it's where Michelangelo
Speaker 1: got his marble and now it's the best marble in
Speaker 1: the world for your countertops and sculptures and stuff. But
Speaker 1: they have robotic sculptors, so that do the first like
Speaker 1: ninety percent of you know, these elaborate, gorgeous sculptures.
Speaker 2: And maybe it's.
Speaker 1: Just that I'm, you know, a traditionalist or whatever, but
Speaker 1: I could absolutely appreciate the fact that that form of
Speaker 1: a person or what have you was gorgeous rendered in
Speaker 1: marble and beautiful to the eye. But if I knew
Speaker 1: a machine did it, it's a completely different experience than
Speaker 1: if a human being did it right and owning it,
Speaker 1: for instance.
Speaker 6: And I don't think we know how that's going to
Speaker 6: play out. If music made by human beings has more
Speaker 6: value to us than music made by AI, even if
Speaker 6: AI is churning out great music, I don't think we know.
Speaker 2: It depends.
Speaker 1: I think in the case of music, and I know
Speaker 1: much more about that than like sculpture. If you are
Speaker 1: the sort of person that likes music ritual dance music,
Speaker 1: which is an actual musicologist's term, it won't matter to you.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter to you because you're already dancing an
Speaker 1: absolutely pre fab computer generated stuff. I think if you
Speaker 1: like music as art, it will matter.
Speaker 6: But I'm not even exactly sure why it's true. But
Speaker 6: like if no, if I have a sculpture that somebody
Speaker 6: made out of marble painstakingly, thousands of hours of their own,
Speaker 6: you know, blood, sweat and tears means something. A computer
Speaker 6: carved it out has no meaning whatsoever. I know this
Speaker 6: is big in the guitar world, musical instrument world, whether
Speaker 6: you use CNC machines or not. And it's a big deal.
Speaker 6: And the people who use CNC machines, which is basically
Speaker 6: a computer, you program it in there and it gets
Speaker 6: The argument for it is that it gets it exactly
Speaker 6: right every single time. The best human hands get it right,
Speaker 6: sometimes get it a little too thin this time, a
Speaker 6: little tooth thick that time. It's not always perfect, like
Speaker 6: old instruments, violins, martin guitars or whatever. There are great
Speaker 6: ones in their average ones and their bad ones because
Speaker 6: it was all by hand. But people prioritize that, just
Speaker 6: like you're talking about with the statue, for whatever reason
Speaker 6: of value. Even though you can get a computer, it
Speaker 6: takes the good guitar maps it out on a screen
Speaker 6: and gets it exactly right every single time. Some people
Speaker 6: don't have any interest in the guitar.
Speaker 1: Is an interesting kind of double case because it's both
Speaker 1: a work of art arguably and a tool to create
Speaker 1: new art.
Speaker 6: So that's that's an intri and it's in our mind
Speaker 6: though it's in your mind.
Speaker 1: The wow absolutely right or your soul Jack, because it's.
Speaker 6: Not in the rational part of your mind. In the
Speaker 6: rational part of your mind, you'd want the perfect one always,
Speaker 6: I suppose.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I came across a really fascinating I think it was
Speaker 1: a Twitter thread at one point talking about how back
Speaker 1: in the day, buildings had so much exquisite you know,
Speaker 1: decoration and filigreeing and stuff on it, and that was
Speaker 1: so everybody, everybody involved in making that building was trying
Speaker 1: to signal this was important to me, and I poured
Speaker 1: everything I had into it, and that was expressed through
Speaker 1: the little extras that you saw in design that vanished
Speaker 1: like in the nineteen sixties and nineteen seventies. And I
Speaker 1: don't think that's nothing. I think that means something.
Speaker 9: Gis Tom Stop, Jack and Joe Liva go and if
Speaker 9: they don't get can they'll be beats.
Speaker 1: I mean, I like this song that guy poured his
Speaker 1: soul into that song. You can hear it. Here's your
Speaker 1: host for final thoughts, Joe Getty.
Speaker 2: Let's get a final thought from everybody on the crew.
Speaker 6: To wrap up the show.
Speaker 2: There is our technical director leading us off, Michael Angelo.
Speaker 6: Michael final thought, just.
Speaker 2: A thank you to all our veterans out there today.
Speaker 1: And if you know somebody as a veteran, make sure
Speaker 1: you give him a hug or a handshake and just
Speaker 1: a big thank you. Excellent, lovely. Katie Greener esteemed to
Speaker 1: use woman as a final thought. Katie, I've got two second.
Speaker 6: What Michaelangelo said, and I also repeat something you said earlier.
Speaker 1: Joe.
Speaker 6: My heart goes out to those families that have been
Speaker 6: broken up because of this election.
Speaker 1: It's just astonishing to me the way human beings get
Speaker 1: so crazy.
Speaker 2: Jack a final thought for us.
Speaker 6: I third Michaelangelo's thoughts about Veterans Day today, and I wonder,
Speaker 6: like with the Tipsy the robot, what will be people
Speaker 6: that prefer the human touch of the not always perfect
Speaker 6: drink to Tipsy the robot getting it fast and perfect
Speaker 6: all the time.
Speaker 1: I don't think we know the answer to these questions.
Speaker 1: M I'm not big talk to the bartender guys. So
Speaker 1: give me the robot anytime. Tipsy's second best bar robot
Speaker 1: name after Bender Future am a. Yeah, I would like
Speaker 1: to quadruple the wishes toward America's veterans. And also how
Speaker 1: about some justice for anybody who got screwed by the
Speaker 1: utterly indefensible COVID policies that messed up our arm services.
Speaker 6: Yeah good one. Armstrong in Getty wrapping up another grueling
Speaker 6: for our workday, so many people.
Speaker 1: Thanks a little time. Go to Armstrong and getty dot com.
Speaker 1: Pick up an Ang T shirt? What's your A hat
Speaker 1: for the favorite Ang fan in your life. It's way
Speaker 1: not too early.
Speaker 2: To be thinking about Christmas gifts. Hot links are there?
Speaker 2: Drop us a line?
Speaker 6: Yes, we will see tomorrow. God bless America.
Speaker 2: Can we get out of here? Please?
Speaker 6: It's oh, come on, get the hell out of here.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, What the hell are you talking about?
Speaker 3: I haven't said a word, so stop yelling at me.
Speaker 4: This is a.
Speaker 2: Perspective exended our European ally share go away. When it
Speaker 2: comes on for you to go, you'll have to go.
Speaker 2: Are you sure of that, dude?
Speaker 1: Absolutely?
Speaker 2: So, everybody chill and that I note.
Speaker 6: Thanks you all very much armstrong and Getty
